Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine zerlegbare Vitrine für Kunstgegenstände, Schmuck o. dgl. gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a dismantled display case for art objects, jewelry or the like. According to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Solche zerlegbaren Schauvitrinen werden beispielsweise von Antiquitätenhändlern oder Juwelieren zur Zurschaustellung ihrer Objekte auf Messen, Ausstellungen o. dgl. verwendet und sollen daher rasch und einfach auf- und abbaubar sein und im abgebauten Zustand wenig Platz beanspruchen und einfach transportabel sein. Ein üblicherweise verwendetes Schauvitrinensystem umfaßt lose Glasplatten, die mit geeigneten Eckverbindungen aus Metall untereinander verbindbar sind. Die Eckverbindungen weisen Nuten auf, in die die Glasplatten einzuschieben sind, wobei zur Gewährleistung einer ausreichend sicheren Verbindung zwischen Glasplatten und Eckverbindungen die Innenseiten der Nuten der Eckverbindungen mit Friktionsmaterialien versehen sind, so daß das Zusammenfügen von Eckverbindungen und Glasplatten bzw. das Lösen der Glasplatten von den Eckverbindungen mit einem nicht unerheblichen Kraftaufwand verbunden ist; aufgrund der relativ großen Haltekräfte der Eckverbindungen müssen die Glasplatten in die Nuten der Eckverbindungen hineingeklopft bzw. -gepreßt werden. Dies macht den Auf- und Abbau der bekannten Schauvitrinen mühsam und zeitraubend. Auch besteht eine nicht unerhebliche Gefahr, daS die Glasplatten beim Auf- bzw. Abbau der bekannten Schauvitrinen zu Bruch gehen.Such display cabinets that can be dismantled are used, for example, by antique dealers or jewelers to display their objects at trade fairs, exhibitions or the like and should therefore be quick and easy to assemble and disassemble and, when disassembled, take up little space and are easy to transport. A commonly used display case system comprises loose glass plates which can be connected to one another with suitable corner connections made of metal. The corner connections have grooves into which the glass plates are to be inserted, with the inside of the grooves of the corner connections ensuring a sufficiently secure connection between glass plates and corner connections are provided with friction materials so that the joining of corner connections and glass plates or the detachment of the glass plates from the corner connections is connected with a not inconsiderable effort; Due to the relatively large holding forces of the corner connections, the glass plates have to be tapped or pressed into the grooves of the corner connections. This makes the assembly and dismantling of the well-known display cases tedious and time-consuming. There is also a not insignificant risk that the glass plates break when the known showcases are assembled or disassembled.

Andererseits sind Schauvitrinen bekannt, welche als solide Möbelstücke ausgebildet sind. Auch solche Schauvitrinen sind weit verbreitet, haben jedoch den erheblichen Nachteil, daß sie in übliche PKWs oder Kombis nicht hineinpassen und daher zum Transport der Vitrinen zusätzlich ein Hänger verwendet werden muß.On the other hand, showcases are known, which are designed as solid pieces of furniture. Showcases of this type are also widespread, but have the considerable disadvantage that they do not fit into conventional cars or station wagons and therefore a trailer must also be used to transport the showcases.

Die US-A-4 572 593 zeigt eine Vitrine gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1, bei dem der Bodenteil bettrahmenartig ausgebildet ist und steck- bzw. schwenkbare Rahmenteile trägt, von denen die schwenkbaren Rahmenteile in dem bettrahmenartigen Boden einlegbar sind, woraufhin eine Bodenplatte auf dem bettrahmenartigen Bodenteil aufsetzbar ist. Für die übrigen Vitrinenteile ist kein Platz innerhalb des bettrahmenartigen Bodenteils vorgesehen.US-A-4 572 593 shows a display case according to the preamble of claim 1, in which the bottom part is designed like a bed frame and carries plug-in or pivotable frame parts, of which the pivotable frame parts can be inserted into the bed frame-like bottom, whereupon a bottom plate the bed frame-like bottom part can be placed. No space is provided for the remaining showcase parts within the bed frame-like base part.

Der Erfindung liegt in erster Linie die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine zerlegbare Vitrine der eingangs genannten Art zu schaffen, die in einfacher Weise und schnell sowie ohne großen Kraftaufwand auf- und abgebaut werden kann und leicht transportabel ist. Weiterhin soll sie im abgebauten Zustand wenig Platz beanspruchen.The invention is primarily based on the object of creating a dismantled display case of the type mentioned which can be assembled and disassembled in a simple and quick manner and without great effort and is easily transportable. Furthermore, it should take up little space when dismantled.

Diese Aufgabe wird im wesentlichen gelöst durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1.This object is essentially achieved by the characterizing features of patent claim 1.

Das erfindungsgemäße Vitrinensystem stellt somit im abgebauten Zustand einen kastenförmigen Behälter dar, in dessen Innerem die für die Vitrine benötigten Einzelteile untergebracht sind. Zum Aufbauen der erfindungsgemäßen Vitrine wird der kastenförmige Behälter durch Abnehmen des Deckelteils geöffnet, und der Bodenteil des Behälters bildet gleichzeitig den Bodenteil der Vitrine. Anschließend werden die vertikalen Ständer in geeigneter Weise am Bodenteil fixiert, wodurch ein Traggerüst für die Böden und Seitenwände entsteht. Hiernach werden stockwerkweise die Seitenwände und Böden in die Führungsnuten eingeschoben, ohne daß hierzu ein nennenswerter Kraftaufwand erforderlich wäre. Abschließend kann gemäß bevorzugter Weiterbildung der Erfindung der Deckelteil auf das Traggerüst aufgesetzt werden, wodurch das Traggerüst gegebenenfalls eine zusätzliche Stabilität erhält und der Deckelteil aufgeräumt ist.The display case system according to the invention thus represents a box-shaped container in the disassembled state, in the interior of which the individual parts required for the display case are accommodated. To assemble the display case according to the invention, the box-shaped container is opened by removing the cover part, and the bottom part of the container simultaneously forms the base part of the display case. The vertical stands are then fixed in a suitable manner on the base part, creating a supporting structure for the floors and side walls. After that, the side walls and floors are pushed into the guide grooves one by one without this would require a significant effort. Finally, according to a preferred further development of the invention, the cover part can be placed on the supporting structure, whereby the supporting structure may be given additional stability and the cover part is cleared up.

Das Traggerüst kann einen oberen horizontalen Stabilisierungsrahmen umfassen, der nach dem Fixieren der vertikalen Ständer am Bodenteil auf die Ständer aufsetzbar ist und hiermit in geeigneter Weise fixierbar ist; geeignete Beschläge sind dem Fachmann, beispielsweise aus der Möbelindustrie, in großer Zahl bekannt. Der obere Stabilisierungsrahmen sollte so ausgebildet sein, daß er ein Einschieben der Seitenwände von oben in die Führungsnuten der vertikalen Ständer nicht behindert.The supporting structure can comprise an upper horizontal stabilizing frame which can be placed on the stand after the vertical stands have been fixed to the base part and can be fixed in a suitable manner therewith; Suitable fittings are known in large numbers to the person skilled in the art, for example from the furniture industry. The upper stabilizing frame should be designed so that it does not hinder insertion of the side walls from above into the guide grooves of the vertical stands.

Der Stabilisierungsrahmen besteht vorzugsweise aus einzelnen, miteinander bzw. mit den Ständern mittels geeigneter Beschläge lösbar verbindbaren Rahmenteilen in Form von Stäben, die sich im zerlegten Zustand auf engstem Raum innerhalb des kastenförmigen Behälters unterbringen lassen.The stabilizing frame preferably consists of individual frame parts in the form of bars which can be detachably connected to one another or to the stands by means of suitable fittings, which can be accommodated in the narrowest space within the box-shaped container when disassembled.

Zum Fixieren der Ständer am Bodenteil können beispielsweise mit dem Bodenteil verbundene, stabile Hülsen vorgesehen sein, in die die Ständer einsteckbar sind. Auch könnten die Ständer in den Bodenteil beispielsweise einschraubbar ausgebildet sein.To fix the stand on the base part, for example, stable sleeves connected to the base part can be provided, into which the stand can be inserted. The stand could also be screwed into the bottom part, for example.

Auch kann es zweckmäßig sein, wenn auch im Deckelteil des Behälters Hülsen o. dgl. vorgesehen sind, in die die Ständer mit ihren oberen Enden bei aufgesetztem Deckel eingreifen; auf einen Stabilisierungsrahmen kann in einem solchen Fall gegebenenfalls verzichtet werden.It can also be expedient if sleeves or the like are also provided in the cover part of the container, into which the stands engage with their upper ends when the cover is attached; In such a case, a stabilizing frame can be dispensed with if necessary.

Eine Ausstellungsvitrine sollte auch nach ihrem Zusammenbau in der Regel von einer Seite her zugänglich bleiben, andererseits sollte diese zugängliche Seite verschließbar ausgebildet sein, um die Vitrine zumindest zeitweise unbeaufsichtigt lassen zu können. Zu diesem Zweck ist gemäß einer bevorzugten Weiterbildung der Erfindung vorgesehen, daß eine Seite der Vitrine mittels Schiebetüren verschließbar ist, wobei diese Schiebetüren so dimensioniert sind, daß sie die Innenabmessungen des kastenartigen Behälters nicht überschreiten. Die für die Schiebetüren vorgesehenen Nuten o. dgl. können in oberen und unteren Führungsleisten ausgebildet sein, die entweder am Traggerüst oder am Deckel- und Bodenteil befestigt bzw. befestigbar sind.An exhibition display case should generally remain accessible from one side even after it has been assembled; on the other hand, this accessible side should be designed so that it can be locked so that the display case can be left unattended at least temporarily. For this purpose, according to a preferred development of the invention, it is provided that one side of the display case can be closed by means of sliding doors, these sliding doors being dimensioned such that they do not exceed the internal dimensions of the box-like container. The grooves or the like provided for the sliding doors can be formed in upper and lower guide strips, which are attached or attachable either to the supporting frame or to the cover and base part.

Gemäß einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist im Deckelteil des kastenförmigen Behälters eine Beleuchtungseinrichtung installiert, die beispielsweise über einen an der Außenseite des Deckelteils vorgesehenen Stecker an das Netz anschließbar ist.According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, a lighting device is installed in the lid part of the box-shaped container, which can be connected to the network, for example, via a plug provided on the outside of the lid part.

In weiterer bevorzugter Ausbildung der Erfindung sind am Boden des Bodenteils Rollen vorgesehen, welche insbesondere nach Art der üblichen Möbelrollen am Bodenteil lösbar befestigt sein können und daher je nach Bedarf abgenommen oder aufgesteckt werden können. Solche Möbelrollen erleichtern den Transport bzw. das Verschieben der erfindungsgemäßen Vitrine ganz erheblich.In a further preferred embodiment of the invention Bottom of the bottom part rollers are provided, which can be releasably attached to the bottom part, in particular in the manner of the usual furniture castors, and can therefore be removed or plugged in as required. Furniture rolls of this type make the transport or moving of the display case according to the invention considerably easier.

Zusätzlich oder in alternativer Weise kann des weiteren vorgesehen sein, daß der Bodenteil von Rädern getragen ist, die beispielsweise am Bodenteil lösbar befestigt sein können, insbesondere mittels Steckachsen, oder die an einem Gestell - gegebenenfalls lösbar - befestigt sind, auf dem der Bodenteil aufliegt. Diese Räder sind in erster Linie zum Transport der zerlegten Vitrine vom und zum Ausstellungsplatz gedacht und sollten daher ausreichend groß dimensioniert sein, um auch größere Unebenheiten wie Schwellen o. dgl. bewältigen zu können.Additionally or alternatively, it can further be provided that the bottom part is carried by wheels, which can be detachably fastened, for example, to the bottom part, in particular by means of thru axles, or which are fastened - optionally releasably - on which the bottom part rests. These wheels are primarily intended to transport the disassembled showcase from and to the exhibition space and should therefore be of sufficient size to be able to cope with larger bumps such as thresholds or the like.

Die Vitrine gemäß Fig. 1 bis 7 umfaßt einen kastenartigen Behälter 2, der sich aus einem unteren Bodenteil 4 und einem oberen Deckelteil 6 zusammensetzt. In dem in Fig. 7 dargestellten, geschlossenen Zustand des Behälters 2 wird der Deckelteil 6 mittels geeigneter Beschläge 8 am Bodenteil 4 fixiert.1 to 7 comprises a box-like container 2, which is composed of a lower bottom part 4 and an upper lid part 6. In the closed state of the container 2 shown in FIG. 7, the cover part 6 is fixed to the base part 4 by means of suitable fittings 8.

Im Inneren des Bodenteils 4 sind randseitig mehrere rohrförmige Steckhülsen 10 befestigt, in welche vertikale Ständer 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 und 22 einsteckbar sind. Die Länge der Ständer 12 bis 22 ist höchstens gleich der Länge des Innenraums des Behälters 2.In the interior of the bottom part 4, a plurality of tubular plug-in sleeves 10 are fastened at the edge, into which vertical stands 12, 14, 16, 18, 20 and 22 can be inserted. The length of the stands 12 to 22 is at most equal to the length of the interior of the container 2.

Wie aus Fig. 2 ersichtlich, ist auf die oberen Enden der Ständer 12 bis 22 ein Stabilisierungsrahmen 24 aufgesetzt und fixiert, der längsverlaufende Rahmenteile 26 und 28 und querverlaufende Rahmenteile 30, 32 und 34 umfaßt.As can be seen from FIG. 2, a stabilizing frame 24 is placed and fixed on the upper ends of the stands 12 to 22, which frame comprises longitudinal frame parts 26 and 28 and transverse frame parts 30, 32 and 34.

Die in der Darstellung gemäß Fig. 1 rückwärtige Seite der Vitrine sowie die beiden hieran rechtwinklig anschließenden Seiten der Vitrine sind mittels in Fig. 1 nicht dargestellter, transparenter Seitenwandelemente 40 aus Glas oder Plexiglas verschlossen, und die Zwischenböden der Vitrine werden ebenfalls aus transparenten Bodenelementen 42 aus Glas oder Plexiglas gebildet. Zum Halten der Seitenwandelemente und der Bodenelemente sind in den Ständern 12 bis 22 geeignete Nuten vorgesehen, wobei die Seitenwandelemente bzw. die Bodenelemente in Nuten gegenüberliegender Ständer gehalten und geführt sind. Fig. 5 und 6 zeigen die Führungsnuten am Beispiel des Ständers 18. An den Ständern sind somit vertikale Führungsnuten 36 für die Seiten- oder Zwischenwandelemente und horizontale Nuten 38 für die Bodenelemente ausgebildet. Die vertikalen Führungsnuten 36 sind von oben her zugänglich, so daß die Seiten- bzw. Zwischenwandelemente von oben in das Traggerüst einsteckbar sind. Die horizontalen Nuten sind ebenfalls durchgehend ausgebildet und somit von seitlich außen her zugänglich, so daß die Bodenelemente seitlich in das Traggerüst einschiebbar sind.The rear side of the display case in the illustration according to FIG. 1 and the two sides of the display case adjoining it at right angles are closed by means of transparent side wall elements 40 made of glass or plexiglass, not shown in FIG. 1, and the intermediate floors of the display case are also made of transparent base elements 42 made of glass or plexiglass. Suitable grooves are provided in the uprights 12 to 22 for holding the side wall elements and the base elements, the side wall elements or the base elements being held and guided in grooves in opposite uprights. 5 and 6 show the guide grooves using the example of the stand 18. Vertical guide grooves 36 for the side or intermediate wall elements and horizontal grooves 38 for the base elements are thus formed on the stands. The vertical guide grooves 36 are accessible from above, so that the side or intermediate wall elements can be inserted into the supporting structure from above. The horizontal grooves are also continuous and thus accessible from the outside from the side, so that the floor elements can be inserted laterally into the supporting structure.

Die in der Darstellung gemäß Fig. 1 dem Betrachter zugewandte Seite der Vitrine ist mittels Schiebetüren 44 verschließbar, welche in bekannter Weise versetzt angeordnet sind, um ein relatives Verschieben gegeneinander zu ermöglichen. Zur Führung der Schiebetüren oben und unten ist eine obere und eine untere Führungsleiste 46 bzw. 48 vorgesehen, wobei die Führungsleisten 46, 48 entweder am Traggerüst oder am Deckelteil 6 bzw. Bodenteil 4 des Behälters 2 fixierbar bzw. fixiert sein können. Die beiden Führungsleisten 46, 48 weisen in Längsrichtung jeweils zwei parallele, nicht dargestellte Führungsnuten auf, in denen die Schiebetüren 44 geführt sind.The side of the showcase facing the viewer in the illustration according to FIG. 1 can be closed by means of sliding doors 44, which are arranged offset in a known manner in order to enable relative displacement relative to one another. An upper and a lower guide bar 46 and 48 are provided for guiding the sliding doors at the top and bottom, the guide bars 46, 48 being able to be fixed or fixed either on the supporting frame or on the cover part 6 or bottom part 4 of the container 2. The two guide strips 46, 48 each have two parallel guide grooves (not shown) in the longitudinal direction, in which the sliding doors 44 are guided.

Die Abmessungen der einzelnen Seitenwandelemente 40, der Bodenelemente 42 und der Schiebetüren 44 sind derart, daß sie ohne weiteres im Inneren des Behälters 2 untergebracht werden können.The dimensions of the individual side wall elements 40, the bottom elements 42 and the sliding doors 44 are such that they can easily be accommodated inside the container 2.

Wie aus Fig. 3 ersichtlich, ist an der Innenseite des Deckelteils 6 eine Beleuchtungseinrichtung 50 installiert, die über einen von außen zugänglichen Stecker 52 bei Bedarf an das Netz anschließbar ist.As can be seen from FIG. 3, a lighting device 50 is installed on the inside of the cover part 6, which can be connected to the network via a plug 52 that is accessible from the outside if required.

An der Unterseite des Bodenteils 4 sind Möbelrollen 54 angebracht, welche in bekannter Weise mittels Drehzapfen in nicht dargestellte bodenteilseitige Führungshülsen einsteckbar sind und bei Bedarf eingesetzt bzw. abgenommen werden können.On the underside of the bottom part 4, furniture castors 54 are attached, which can be inserted in a known manner by means of pivots into guide sleeves (not shown) on the bottom part and inserted or removed if necessary can be.

Zum Abbau der Vitrine aus der in Fig. 1 dargestellten Funktionsstellung wird der Deckelteil 6 abgenommen, die Seitenwandelemente 40 und Bodenelemente 42 sowie die Schiebetüren 44 werden aus ihren Führungsnuten herausgezogen, das Traggerüst wird in seine Einzelteile zerlegt und vom Bodenteil 4 gelöst, und anschließend werden die Ständer, die Rahmenteile und die Glasplatten im Inneren des Behälters 2 verstaut und der Behälter durch Aufsetzen des Deckelteils 6 auf dem Bodenteil 4 geschlossen. Zum Transport des geschlossenen Behälters 2 kann es zweckmäßig sein, anstelle der Möbelrollen 54 größere Räder 56 vorzusehen, welche über nicht dargestellte Steckachsen am Bodenteil 4 des Behälters 2 fixiert sind und bei Bedarf abnehmbar sind.To dismantle the display case from the functional position shown in FIG. 1, the cover part 6 is removed, the side wall elements 40 and base elements 42 and the sliding doors 44 are pulled out of their guide grooves, the supporting structure is broken down into its individual parts and detached from the base part 4, and then the stand, the frame parts and the glass plates are stowed inside the container 2 and the container is closed by placing the cover part 6 on the base part 4. To transport the closed container 2, it may be expedient to provide, instead of the furniture castors 54, larger wheels 56 which are fixed to the base part 4 of the container 2 via plug-in axles (not shown) and can be removed if necessary.

In alternativer Weise ist ein insgesamt mit der Bezugsziffer 58 bezeichnetes Radgestell vorgesehen, welches einen Rahmen 60 mit Achsen 62 und hieran gelagerten Rädern 64 umfaßt. Der Behälter 2 ist auf diesen Rahmen 60 aufsetzbar und gegebenenfalls mittels geeigneter Rast- oder Sperrmittel hieran fixierbar. Mittels einer gegebenenfalls vom Rahmen 60 abnehmbaren Handhabe 66 kann das Radgestell 58 samt hierauf befindlichem Behälter 2 bequem fortbewegt werden.As an alternative, a wheel frame, designated overall by reference number 58, is provided, which comprises a frame 60 with axles 62 and wheels 64 mounted thereon. The container 2 can be placed on this frame 60 and, if appropriate, can be fixed thereon by means of suitable latching or locking means. By means of a handle 66, which may be removable from the frame 60, the wheel frame 58 together with the container 2 located thereon can be moved comfortably.

Die Erfindung ist nicht auf die beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiele beschränkt. Beispielsweise kann es vorteilhaft sein, anstelle der Schiebetüren 44 ein Rollo zu verwenden, welches insbesondere am Deckelteil 6 gelagert, an den Ständern 12 und 20 seitlich geführt und am Bodenteil 4 verschließbar sein kann.The invention is not restricted to the exemplary embodiments described. For example, it can be advantageous to use a roller blind instead of the sliding doors 44, which can be mounted in particular on the cover part 6, guided laterally on the stands 12 and 20 and can be closed on the base part 4.

Auch kann der Erfindungsgegenstand anstelle einer Vitrine als Regal o. dgl. verwendet werden, wobei die gleichen Konstruktionsprinzipien zugrunde liegen und lediglich die Seitenwandelemente und/oder Bodenelemente zumindest teilweise aus Holz, Sperrholz oder deren Ersatzmaterialien bestehen können.The subject of the invention can also be used instead of a display case as a shelf or the like, the same construction principles being used and only the side wall elements and / or floor elements can at least partially consist of wood, plywood or their substitute materials.
