Abstract

Individual frame profiles (1, 21, 27, 30, 34) can be braced against one another to form an exchangeable frame by means of a bistable spring clamping element (9). An exchangeable frame of this type has at least two separation joints (10) which are arranged at opposite points on the frame, each have at least one bistable spring clamping element and thus allow rapid opening or closing of the separation joint (10). For the purpose of guidance, the frame profile has two inwardly directed, plate-type projections (2, 3) which are arranged parallel to the picture plane. The space between these projections (2, 3) serves as a guide space (12) in which a plate-type guide part (6) is arranged movably towards at least one side of the frame. Located in the movable side of the guide part is a connecting link cutout (7) which is designed in terms of shape such that a power accumulator (8) is mounted by one end (23b) so as to be axially rotatable in a counter bearing (19) while the other end (23a) is arranged so as to be displaceable along the path (16) of the connecting link from one of the two power accumulator end positions (15b) to the other (15a) or vice versa, the separation joint (10) being held in the closed position (15a) under a prestress of the power accumulator (8). The power accumulator (8) and frame profile projections (2, 3), connected to one another by a connecting pin (13), together with the guide part (6) and the connecting link cutout (7) arranged therein form the bistable spring clamping element (9). <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Verbindung für Rahmenprofilleisten von Präsentationseinrichtungen, insbesondere Bilderrahmen oder Bildvitrinen, wobei jeweils zwei Rahmenprofilleisten mittels federnder Spannelemente an ihren Enden gegeneinanderstoßend verspannbar sind und wobei die Rahmenprofilleisten nach innen vorspringende Schenkel zur Halterung eines plattenförmigen Gegenstandes in einer zur Hauptebene des Rahmens parallelen Ebene aufweisen.The invention relates to a connection for frame profile strips of presentation devices, in particular picture frames or display cabinets, two frame profile strips each being braced against one another at their ends by means of resilient tensioning elements, and wherein the frame profile strips have inwardly projecting legs for holding a plate-shaped object in a plane parallel to the main plane of the frame .

Zur Verbindung von Rahmenprofilleisten, insbesondere für Wechselrahmen, sind Vorrichtungen bekannt, bei denen jeweils zwei Rahmenprofilleisten an ihren Enden gegeneinanderstoßend mit Hilfe von federnden Spannelementen verspannbar sind. Eine derartige Vorrichtung ist durch das Gebrauchsmuster G 81 35 367.7 bekanntgeworden, wobei das Spannelement aus einer gebogenen Blattfeder besteht, deren Enden in Aussparungen der Rahmenprofilleisten eingreifen und somit die Enden der Rahmenprofilleisten gegeneinander verspannen. Bei der Demontage eines derartigen Rahmens geht jedoch jeglicher Zusammenhalt zwischen dem Spannelement und den Rahmenprofilleisten verloren, so daß ein Wiederzusammensetzen einige Geschicklichkeit und eine feste Arbeitsunterlage erfordert.Devices are known for connecting frame profile strips, in particular for interchangeable frames, in which two frame profile strips can be braced against one another at their ends by means of resilient tensioning elements. Such a device has become known from utility model G 81 35 367.7, the tensioning element consisting of a curved leaf spring, the ends of which engage in recesses in the frame profile strips and thus brace the ends of the frame profile strips against one another. When dismantling such a frame, however, any cohesion between the clamping element and the frame profile strips is lost, so that a Reassembling requires some skill and a solid work surface.

Bei einem weiteren bekannten Wechselrahmen (DE 30 27 258 A1) wird ein frontseitiges Einlegen von Bildern dadurch ermöglicht, daß Hohlprofile der auf Gehrung abgelängten Rahmenleisten zumindestens im Bereich ihrer beiden Enden einen der Rahmenmitte zugewandten Längsschlitz aufweisen, daß Eckverbinder einen aus der Ecke einwärts ragenden Auflagenteil für die Rückwand bzw. das Bild und dgl. bilden, der über einen durch die Längsschlitze passenden Steg mit dem vollständig in die an diese Ecke aneinanderstoßenden Hohlprofile einschiebbaren Winkelstück in Verbindung steht, und daß in Ausnehmungen der Hohlprofile einrastbare Haltenocken oder dergleichen jeweils zwei einer End- und einer Spreizstellung der Rahmenprofilleisten entsprechende Rastausnehmungen zugeordnet sind. Um den Wechselrahmen in einer geschlossenen Stellung zu halten, sind Federzungen vorgesehen, die jedoch die Ecken der Rahmenteile nicht aneinander verspannen, sondern lediglich in der zusammengeschobenen Stellung halten.In another known interchangeable frame (DE 30 27 258 A1), front-side insertion of images is made possible by the fact that hollow profiles of the miter-cut frame strips have, at least in the region of their two ends, a longitudinal slot facing the center of the frame, that corner connectors have a support part projecting inwards from the corner for the back wall or the image and the like. Form, which is connected via a through the longitudinal slots web with the fully insertable into the abutting at this corner hollow profiles elbow, and that in recesses of the hollow profiles latching retaining cams or the like two each one end - And a spreading position of the frame profile strips are assigned corresponding recesses. In order to keep the removable frame in a closed position, spring tongues are provided which, however, do not clamp the corners of the frame parts together, but only hold them in the pushed-together position.

Diese Nachteile werden mit einem in der nicht vorveröffentlichen DE-A-40 10 391 bereits vorgeschlagenen Wechselrahmen dadurch vermieden, daß mindestens zwei Spannelemente mit einer Kulissennutführung unter Verwendung eines Kraftspeichers Trennfugen bilden. Bei dieser Ausführung ist zwar eine lagegerechte Führung gewährleistet; durch die zwei und mehr Spannelemente pro Rahmen kommt es wegen der engen Kulissennutführung des Gleitkörpers zu Verkantungen, die das Öffnen und Schließen des Rahmens erschweren.These disadvantages are avoided with an interchangeable frame already proposed in DE-A-40 10 391, which is not prepublished, in that at least two clamping elements with a slot groove guide form parting lines using an energy store. With this version, correct guidance is guaranteed; The two and more clamping elements per frame cause canting due to the narrow guide groove guide of the sliding body, which complicates the opening and closing of the frame.

Ein anderer sowohl ökonomisch als auch technischer Nachteil ist, daß das Spannelement nicht Teil des Rahmens ist, sondern aus zusätzlichen Bauteilen gebildet wird, die aufwendig an besonders vorgesehenen Haltevorrichtungen mit den Rahmenprofilen verbunden werden müssen. Oftmaliges Betätigen der Spannvorrichtung lockert die Verbindung zum Rahmenprofil, so daß eine exakt geschlossene Trennfuge dann nicht mehr gewährleistet ist.Another both economic and technical disadvantage is that the tensioning element is not part of the frame, but is formed from additional components, which are expensive on specially provided holding devices the frame profiles must be connected. Frequent actuation of the tensioning device loosens the connection to the frame profile, so that an exactly closed joint is no longer guaranteed.

Als weiterer Nachteil ist anzusehen, daß durch den aufwendigen Aufbau des Spannelements und der dazu notwendigen Haltevorrichtung flache Bilderrahmen nicht gefertigt werden können.Another disadvantage is that flat picture frames cannot be produced due to the complex structure of the tensioning element and the holding device required for this.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, den Bilderaustausch bei Bilderrahmen und rahmenlosen Bildträgern zu vereinfachen, insbesondere auch bei wandverankerten Bilderrahmen, die bisher demontiert werden mußten, um einen Bilderwechsel durchzuführen.The invention has for its object to simplify the exchange of pictures in picture frames and frameless picture carriers, especially in wall-anchored picture frames, which previously had to be dismantled to change the picture.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch folgende Maßnahmen gelöst:

  • a) zwei Vorsprünge der Rahmenprofilleisten bilden einen Führungsraum, in den ein plattenförmiges, gegenüber mindestens einer Rahmenprofilleiste beweglich angeordnetes Führungsteil eingreift;
  • b) das Spannelement ist ein bistabiles Federspannelement, das mindestens einen Kraftspeicher aufweist;
  • c) das Führungsteil weist mindestens eine geschlossene Kulissenaussparung mit zwei entgegengesetzt liegenden Endstellungen für den Kraftspeicher, einem diese Endstellungen verbindenden Kulissenweg sowie einem im wesentlichen aus einer Nase gebildeten Widerlager auf;
  • d) der Kraftspeicher ist derart in der Kulissenaussparung angeordnet, daß das eine Ende des Kraftspeichers im Widerlager gelagert ist und das andere Ende des Kraftspeichers dem Kulissenweg zugeordnet ist, wobei dieses Ende des Kraftspeichers entweder in der einen oder der anderen Endstellung der Kulissenaussparung ruht;
  • e) der Kraftspeicher weist an dem dem Kulissenweg zugekehrten Ende einen Verbindungsstift auf, durch den der Kraftspeicher mit den beiden Vorsprüngen der Rahmenprofilleisten verbunden ist;
  • f) der Verbindungsstift steht in der Endstellung, in der die Trennfuge zwischen aneinanderstoßenden Rahmenprofilleisten geschlossen ist, unter einer Vorspannung.
According to the invention, the object is achieved by the following measures:
  • a) two projections of the frame profile strips form a guide space in which a plate-shaped guide part engages, which is arranged movably relative to at least one frame profile strip;
  • b) the tensioning element is a bistable spring tensioning element which has at least one energy store;
  • c) the guide part has at least one closed link recess with two opposite end positions for the energy accumulator, a link path connecting these end positions and an abutment essentially formed from a nose;
  • d) the energy store is arranged in the link recess such that one end of the energy store is mounted in the abutment and the other end of the energy store is assigned to the link path, this end of the energy store resting either in one or the other end position of the link recess;
  • e) the energy store points to the scenery path facing end of a connecting pin through which the energy accumulator is connected to the two projections of the frame profile strips;
  • f) the connecting pin is in the end position, in which the joint between adjacent frame profile strips is closed, under a prestress.

Die bei der Erfindung erzielten Vorteile bestehen darin, daß die Verbindung gelöst bzw. verspannt werden kann, ohne irgendwelche Schrauben, Klammern, Bügel, Kniehebelverschlüsse oder ähnliches zu entfernen oder zu betätigen.The advantages achieved with the invention are that the connection can be released or tensioned without removing or actuating any screws, brackets, brackets, toggle locks or the like.

Die erfindungsgemäße Verbindung hält die Rahmenprofilleisten sowohl in der Schließstellung als auch in einer Öffnungsstellung und wird daher im folgenden auch bistabiles Federspannelement genannt. Die erfindungsgemäße Verbindung kann an zwei oder mehr Endfugen angeordnet sein. Bei mit der erfindungsgemäßen Verbindung ausgerüsteten Wechselrahmen ist ein Bildaustausch von der Vorderseite aus möglich, ohne daß der Rahmen von der Wand genommen werden muß. Der gleiche Vorteil ergibt sich bei Bildvitrinen oder anderen Präsentationseinrichtungen. Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung eignet sich sowohl für runde als auch für eckige Rahmen oder Vitrinen mit drei, vier oder mehr Ecken. Die zu verbindenden Rahmenprofilleisten sind vorzugsweise, aber nicht ausschließlich, auf Gehrung geschnitten und bestehen aus stranggepreßtem Aluminium, aus Kunststoff oder aus Holz.The connection according to the invention holds the frame profile strips both in the closed position and in an open position and is therefore also called bistable spring tensioning element in the following. The connection according to the invention can be arranged on two or more end joints. With removable frames equipped with the connection according to the invention, an image exchange is possible from the front side without the frame having to be removed from the wall. The same advantage arises with picture showcases or other presentation facilities. The device according to the invention is suitable for round as well as for square frames or showcases with three, four or more corners. The frame profile strips to be connected are preferably, but not exclusively, mitred and consist of extruded aluminum, plastic or wood.

Durch die in den Unteransprüchen aufgeführten Maßnahmen sind vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen und Verbesserungen der im Hauptanspruch angegebenen Erfindung möglich.Advantageous further developments and improvements of the invention specified in the main claim are possible through the measures listed in the subclaims.

Im Falle eines Wechselrahmens mit zwei gegenüberliegend angeordneten Trennfugen sieht der Vorgang eines Bildaustauschs wie folgt aus:
Der Rahmen wird mit der Rückseite auf eine ebene Fläche gelegt, durch einen Druck auf einen Rahmenschenkel in Richtung Rahmenaußenseite öffnet sich der Rahmen an den Trennfugen. Der Bildaustausch kann von der Vorderseite aus erfolgen. Die Oberseite des obenliegenden Profilvorsprungs dient bei geöffneter Trennfuge als Auflagefläche für die auszutauschenden Objekte. Das Schließen der Trennfugem erfolgt durch einen Druck auf die Rahmenaußenseite in Richtung Rahmenmitte. Beim Öffnen bzw. Schließen nimmt der Druck durch das Unterdrucksetzen des Kraftspeichers zunächst zu, bis nach Überschreiten eines Kraftmaximums der Kraftspeicher in die andere Endztellung umschnappt. Mindestens in der Schließstellung werden die Trennfugen unter einer Vorspannung gehalten.
In the case of an interchangeable frame with two separating joints arranged opposite one another, the process of exchanging images is as follows:
The frame is placed with the back on a flat surface, by pressing on a frame leg towards the outside of the frame, the frame opens at the joints. The image can be exchanged from the front. When the joint is open, the top of the profile projection on top serves as a support surface for the objects to be replaced. The separating joints are closed by pressing the outside of the frame towards the center of the frame. When opening or closing, the pressure initially increases due to the pressurization of the energy accumulator until the energy accumulator snaps into the other end position after a force maximum has been exceeded. At least in the closed position, the parting lines are held under a pretension.

Ein besonderer Vorteil ist, daß das bistabile Federspannelement Teil des Rahmens ist und aus Bauteilen wie Profilleiste, Führungsteil, Kraftspeicher und Verbindungsstift besteht - im Idealfall nur aus den üblichen Bauteilen wie in der Ausführung, die aus Rahmenprofil, Bilderrahmenrückwand und Verbindungsstift besteht. Das Führungsteil, die Kulissenaussparung und der Kraftspeicher werden dabei durch bzw. aus der Bilderrahmenrückwand nach Anspruch 4 und 6 gebildet.A particular advantage is that the bistable spring tensioning element is part of the frame and consists of components such as profile strip, guide part, energy accumulator and connecting pin - ideally only from the usual components such as the version consisting of frame profile, picture frame rear wall and connecting pin. The guide part, the setting recess and the energy storage are formed by or from the picture frame rear wall according to claim 4 and 6.

Ein weiterer Vorteil ist, daß das Führungsteil ein Flachwinkel ist, der mindestens in einer Schenkelseite eine geschlossene Kulissenaussparung aufweist.Another advantage is that the guide part is a flat angle, which has a closed slot recess at least in one leg side.

Um Bilderrahmen an der Wand fest zu verankern, ist es vorteilhaft, wenn das Führungsteil zusätzlich eine Wandbefestigungsvorrichtung aufweist, die so ausgebildet ist, daß zwischen dem Führungsteil und der Wand ein Abstand besteht, um die Funktion der beweglichen Rahmenteile zu gewährleisten.In order to firmly anchor picture frames on the wall, it is advantageous if the guide part additionally has a wall fastening device which is designed such that there is a distance between the guide part and the wall exists to ensure the function of the movable frame parts.

Eine Vereinfachung und damit von besonderem Vorteil ist es, wenn das Führungsteil aus der Bilderrahmenrückwand gebildet wird und mindestens zwei geschlossene Kulissenaussparungen aufweist. Das Führungsteil nach den Ansprüchen 2, 3 und 4 kann aus Metall, Kunststoff oder anderen Materialien gefertigt sein.A simplification and therefore a particular advantage is if the guide part is formed from the rear frame of the picture frame and has at least two closed setting recesses. The guide part according to claims 2, 3 and 4 can be made of metal, plastic or other materials.

Der Kraftspeicher eine Druckfeder ist, die aus einer Bogenform oder einer Kobination von Bogen- und Spiralform gebildet wird, die Ausführung und Anordnung in der Kulissenaussparung geht aus den Ansprüchen 5, 6 und 7 hervor.The energy accumulator is a compression spring, which is formed from an arc shape or a combination of arc and spiral shape, the design and arrangement in the setting recess can be seen from claims 5, 6 and 7.

Falls die Druckfeder aus der Kombination von Bogen- und Spiralform besteht, wird dadurch bei gleicher Dimensionierung der Kulissenaussparung eine Vergrößerung des Kraftspeichers erreicht. Außerdem wird durch das spiralförmige Teilstück eine Art Axialbewegung im Widerlager ermöglicht, die den geregelten Ablauf der Schnappbewegung unterstützt. Durch diese Anordnung ist es möglich, Kraftspeicher und Führungsteil aus demselben Werkstück, z. b. Kunststoff im Spritzgußverfahren, herzustellen.If the compression spring consists of a combination of arc and spiral shape, this increases the size of the energy accumulator with the same dimensioning of the slot recess. In addition, the spiral section enables a kind of axial movement in the abutment, which supports the regulated sequence of the snap movement. With this arrangement, it is possible to store energy and guide part from the same workpiece, for. b. Injection molding plastic.

Die Ausführung des Kraftspeichers nach den Ansprüchen 5, 6 und 7 kann außer dem bereits erwähnten Kunststoff mit stahlelastischem Verhalten auch in Federstahlband oder Federstahldraht erfolgen.The execution of the energy accumulator according to claims 5, 6 and 7 can take place in addition to the already mentioned plastic with steel elastic behavior in spring steel strip or spring steel wire.

Der in der Kulissenaussparung angeordnete Kulissenweg, der die Verbindung zwischen den beiden Kraftspeicherendstellungen darstellt, verläuft konform der Öffnungsrichtung der Trennfuge. Der genaue Verlauf geht aus den Ansprüchen 8, 9, 10, 11 und 12 hervor.The backdrop path arranged in the backdrop recess, which represents the connection between the two energy storage end positions, runs in conformity with the opening direction of the parting line. The exact course is apparent from claims 8, 9, 10, 11 and 12.

Ein besonderer Vorteil bei rahmenlosen Bildträgern ist, daß für die Haltefunktion von Glasscheibe und Bild nur Teilstücke einer Profilleiste benötigt werden, wie dieses aus dem Anspruch hervorgeht.A particular advantage of frameless picture carriers is that only parts of a profile strip are required for the holding function of the glass pane and picture, as is evident from the claim.

Der für eine zur Hauptebene des Rahmens parallele Schließ- und Öffnungsbewegung wichtige Führungsraum wird aus zwei Profilvorsprüngen gebildet und kann an den Vorsprungsenden offen oder durch einen Steg geschlossen sein.The guide space, which is important for a closing and opening movement parallel to the main plane of the frame, is formed from two profile projections and can be open at the projection ends or closed by a web.

Falls das bistabile Federspannelement für Wandhalter Anwendung findet, ist das Führungsteil eine plattenförmige Befestigungsvorrichtung mit einer vorder- und rückseitig angeordneten Vertiefung für die Aufnahme des Profilleistenteilstücks nach Anspruch 16. Durch diese Ausbildung ist die Beweglichkeit des Führungsteils zur Wand als auch z. B. einer Spiegelrückfläche gewährleistet.If the bistable spring tensioning element is used for wall brackets, the guide part is a plate-shaped fastening device with a front and rear side recess for receiving the profiled strip section according to claim 16. This design makes the guide part movable to the wall and also, for. B. a mirror back surface guaranteed.

Die Fig. 1 zeigt eine perspektivische Ansicht einer Rahmenecke, die ein bistabiles Federspannelement 9 bildet. Durch das Führungsteil 6, ein einen rechten Winkel bildender Flachwinkel nach Fig. 4, sind zwei Rahmenprofilleisten 1 miteinander verbunden, wobei eine Profilleiste fest mit dem zugeordneten Winkelschenkel mittels Kleber, Nieten oder Verpressung verbunden ist, während der andere Winkelschenkel Teil eines bistabilen Federspannelements 9 ist. Eine Trennfuge 10 ist in diagonaler Richtung geöffnet und weist eine parallele Führung zur Hauptebene, auch Bildebene genannt, auf. In der Kulissenaussparung 7 befindet sich ein Kraftspeicher 8 nach Fig. 21. Daneben ist ein Verbindungsstift 13 abgebildet.1 shows a perspective view of a frame corner which forms a bistable spring tensioning element 9. 4, two frame profile strips 1 are connected to one another, one profile strip being firmly connected to the associated angle leg by means of adhesive, rivets or compression, while the other angle leg is part of a bistable spring tensioning element 9 . A parting line 10 is open in the diagonal direction and has a parallel guide to the main plane, also called the image plane. An energy store 8 according to FIG. 21 is located in the slot recess 7. A connecting pin 13 is also shown.

Die Fig. 2 zeigt eine Rahmenecke, die ein bistabiles Federspannelement 9 bildet, welches eine Variante zu Fig. 1 darstellt. Es wird aus der Profilleiste 27 und einem Flachwinkel mit einseitiger Kulissenaussparung nach Fig. 7 gebildet. Die Trennfuge 10 weist eine parallele Öffnung der beweglichen Rahmenleiste auf.FIG. 2 shows a frame corner which forms a bistable spring tensioning element 9, which represents a variant of FIG. 1. It is formed from the profile strip 27 and a flat angle with one-sided link recess according to FIG. 7. The parting line 10 has a parallel opening in the movable frame strip.

Die Bilderrahmenrückwand als Führungsteil 6 wird in Fig. 3 dargestellt. Der Kulissenweg 16 verläuft nach Anspruch 11. Die Fig. 17 zeigt die Vorderansicht eines derartigen Rahmens mit vier geöffneten Trennfugen 10.The picture frame rear wall as a guide part 6 is shown in FIG. 3. The scenery path 16 runs according to claim 11. Fig. 17 shows the front view of such a frame with four open parting lines 10.

Der Flachwinkel als Führungsteil 6 in Fig. 5 zeigt eine Vorrichtung für die Wandbefestigung 14, die mit einer Bohrung 26 versehen ist. Die beiden Schenkel des Flachwinkels weisen je eine Kulissenaussparung 7 auf, bei denen der Kulissenweg 16 diagonal zu den beweglichen Rahmenleisten verläuft.The flat angle as the guide part 6 in FIG. 5 shows a device for the wall fastening 14, which is provided with a bore 26. The two legs of the flat angle each have a link recess 7, in which the link path 16 runs diagonally to the movable frame strips.

Fig. 6 zeigt eine Kulissenaussparung 7, deren Kulissenweg 16 im Rahmen eingebaut einen diagonalen Verlauf zu den beweglichen Rahmenleisten aufweist. Lediglich in der Schließstellung 15a befindet sich der Kraftspeicher 8 in einem Verriegelungsabschnitt, der Teilstrecke 17, die einen parallelen Verlauf zu den horizontalen Rahmenleisten aufweist. Durch diese Ausbildung der Kulissenaussparung 7 ist gewährleistet, daß sich die geschlossene Rahmenecke nicht von allein, durch das Gewicht des plattenförmigen Gegenstandes 4 oder andere vertikale Zugkräfte öffnet.Fig. 6 shows a backdrop recess 7, the backdrop path 16 installed in the frame has a diagonal course to the movable frame strips. Only in the closed position 15a is the energy store 8 in a locking section, the section 17, which has a parallel profile to the horizontal frame strips. This configuration of the setting recess 7 ensures that the closed frame corner does not open by itself due to the weight of the plate-shaped object 4 or other vertical tensile forces.

Bei der Fig. 7 zeigt der Kulissenweg 16 im Rahmen eingebaut eine parallele Führung zu den beweglichen Rahmenleisten, wie dies aus Fig. 2 ersichtlich ist.In FIG. 7, the sliding path 16 shows, installed in the frame, a parallel guide to the movable frame strips, as can be seen from FIG. 2.

Durch das Ausmaß der Krümmung des Kulissenweges 16 in Fig. 8 ist eine Feinabstimmung von Kraftspeicher 8 und Kulissenaussparung 7 möglich. So kann die Durckfeder dadurch so ausgewählt werden, daß einem Maximum an Vorspannung in der Schließstellung ein Minimum an Kraftaufwand bei der Verschiebebewegung gegenübersteht. Dadurch ist es möglich, Rahmenecken auch ohne den in Fig. 6 dargestellten Verriegelungsabschnitt 17 unter Belastung geschlossen zu halten.Due to the extent of the curvature of the link path 16 in FIG. 8, fine tuning of the energy accumulator 8 and the link recess 7 is possible. Thus, the pressure spring can be selected so that a maximum of preload in the closed position is opposed to a minimum of effort in the displacement movement. This makes it possible to keep frame corners closed under load even without the locking section 17 shown in FIG. 6.

Der in den Figuren 6, 7 und 8 dargestellte Kulissenweg 16 kann je nach Anordnung der Trennfuge 10 im Rahmen in allen Winkelgraden angeordnet sein. Die Kulissenaussparung 7 wird dann so ausgerichtet, daß der Kulissenweg 16 in die gewünschte Öffnungsrichtung der Trennfuge zeigt.The slide path 16 shown in FIGS. 6, 7 and 8 can be arranged in the frame in all angular degrees depending on the arrangement of the parting line 10. The setting recess 7 is then aligned so that the setting path 16 points in the desired opening direction of the parting line.
