Abstract

The support device (10) serves for reliably keeping free the space which has become vacant when a book (33) or file has been removed. When a book or file is removed, the support members (19) resting against the book (33) or file at the top or rear move by the force of gravity from the upper position into the lower position. In the latter position, they support the books on both sides of the space which has become vacant. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Stützvorrichtung für Gegenstände, insbesondere Bücher, auf einer Ablage oder in einem Regal.The invention relates to a support device for objects, in particular books, on a shelf or on a shelf.

Wenn man ein Buch aus einem Büchergestell entfernt, so kippt gewöhnlich das eine oder das andere benachbart gewesene um. Entsprechendes gilt auch für Aktenordner oder ähnliche Gegenstände. Die Situation wird besonders unangenehm, wenn mehrere Bücher oder Aktenordner entfernt werden und eine ganze Buch- oder Aktenordnerreihe umkippt. Um solchen Fällen begegnen zu können, sind Buchstützen bekannt, welche in der Regel aus einer rechtwinklig abgebogenen Blechplatte bestehen. Diese Buchstützen sind aber unpraktisch, wenn Bücher oder Aktenordner an verschiedenen Stellen entnommen werden. Es muss dann die ganze Reihe von Büchern oder Aktenordnern zusammengeschoben werden, wobei man nachher oft nicht weiss oder beachtet, wo das Buch oder der Aktenordner entnommen wurde. Es werden dann oft die Bücher oder Aktenordner an der falschen Stelle wieder eingefügt. Dies führt dann oft zu unnötigem Zeitverlust durch Sucharbeit.When you remove a book from a bookshelf, one or the other that is adjacent tends to tip over. The same applies to file folders or similar items. The situation becomes particularly uncomfortable when several books or files are removed and an entire row of books or files tips over. In order to be able to deal with such cases, bookends are known which generally consist of a sheet metal plate bent at right angles. However, these bookends are impractical when books or files are removed from different locations. The whole row of books or files must then be pushed together, whereby afterwards one often does not know or pay attention to where the book or file was taken from. The books or file folders are then often inserted in the wrong place. This often leads to unnecessary loss of time due to search work.

Ein Nachteil bekannter Buchstützen besteht darin, dass sie leicht zu Beschädigungen der Bücher führen, wenn sie bei unsachgemässer Ablage des Buches in das Buch eindringen.A disadvantage of known bookends is that they easily damage the books if they enter the book when the book is improperly stored.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung eine Stützvorrichtung zu schaffen, welche bei der Entnahme eines Buches oder eines Aktenordners den Platz sicher freihält, indem sie ein Umkippen der benachbarten Bücher oder Aktenordner verhindert. Die Stützvorrichtung soll auch zu keinen Beschädigungen des abgelegten Gutes Anlass geben.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a support device which, when a book or a file folder is removed, reliably keeps the space free by preventing the adjacent books or file folder from tipping over. The support device should also not give rise to any damage to the deposited goods.

Gemäss der vorliegenden Erfindung wird dies durch eine Stützvorrichtung erreicht, welche durch einen Support und eine Vielzahl von Stützgliedern gekennzeichnet ist, welche entlang des Supports angeordnet sind und bei der Ablage eines Gegenstandes individuell um eine in Längsrichtung zum Support verlaufende Achse entgegen einer Kraft beweglich sind und bei Entnahme des Gegenstandes in die Abstützstellung zurückkehren, um die benachbarten Gegenstände seitlich abzustützen. Diese Stützvorrichtung hat den Vorteil, dass bei der Entnahme eines Buches oder anderen Gegenstandes keine speziellen Vorkehrungen getroffen werden müssen. Die Stützglieder gehen automatisch in die Stützstellung und werden aus dieser wieder bewegt, wenn das Buch in die freigehaltene Lücke eingeschoben wird.According to the present invention, this is achieved by a support device which is characterized by a support and a multiplicity of support members which are arranged along the support and are individually movable against a force about an axis running in the longitudinal direction to the support when an object is deposited, and at Return the object to the support position to support the neighboring objects laterally. This support device has the advantage that no special precautions need to be taken when a book or other object is removed. The support members automatically go into the support position and are moved out of it again when the book is inserted into the gap which is kept free.

Vorteilhaft werden die Stützglieder durch die Schwerkraft in der Abstützstellung gehalten. Die Kräfte, welche notwendig sind, um die Stützglieder aus der Abstützstellung zu bewegen, sind daher äusserst gering, so dass sie keine Beschädigung des abgelegten Gegenstandes bewirken können.The support members are advantageously held in the support position by gravity. The forces which are necessary to move the support members out of the support position are therefore extremely low, so that they cannot cause damage to the deposited object.

Vorteilhaft weist das jeweilige Stützglied einen Gelenkabschnitt auf, welcher mit einem Gelenkabschnitt des Supports zusammenarbeitet. Die Gelenkabschnitte von Support und Stützglieder können dabei so ausgebildet sein, dass sie eine Schwenkbewegung der Stützglieder um etwa 50 bis 90 Grad gestatten. Vorteilhaft ist ein Anschlag vorgesehen, welcher die Bewegung der Stützglieder bei der Ablage eines Gegenstandes begrenzt. Dadurch wird vermieden, dass die Stützglieder beim Ablegen eines Gegenstandes infolge der Hebelwirkung verformt werden. Der Anschlag wird zweckmässigerweise durch einen Fuss des Supports gebildet. Dies ergibt eine einfache Konstruktion. Vorteilhaft verläuft das jeweilige Stützglied gegen sein freies Ende hin in einem Bogen. Dadurch kann einmal erreicht werden, dass das Stützglied mit seinem freien Ende am Anschlag anschlagen kann. Es besteht dann keine Gefahr, dass es im Bereich des Gelenkabschnittes bei der unsorgfältigen Ablage eines Gegenstandes verformt wird. Weiter kann durch den Bogen erreicht werden, dass bei Montage der Stützvorrichtung hinter den auf der Ablagefläche abzulegenden Gegenstände der Schwerpunkt des Stützgliedes nie über den Drehpunkt zu liegen kommt, so dass die Schwerkraft immer in der Lage ist, das Stützglied in die Abstützstellung zu bringen. Schliesslich sorgt der Bogen auch dafür, dass beim Ablegen oder Entnehmen eines Gegenstandes das Stützglied auf dem Gegenstand gleiten kann.The respective support member advantageously has a joint section which cooperates with a joint section of the support. The joint sections of the support and support members can be designed such that they allow the support members to pivot about 50 to 90 degrees. A stop is advantageously provided which limits the movement of the support members when an object is being deposited. This prevents the support members from being deformed as a result of the leverage effect when an object is deposited. The stop is expediently formed by a foot of the support. This results in a simple construction. The respective support member advantageously runs in an arc towards its free end. This can be achieved that the support member can strike the stop with its free end. There is then no danger that it will be deformed in the area of the joint section when an object is deposited improperly. Furthermore, it can be achieved through the arch that when the support device is mounted behind the objects to be placed on the storage surface, the center of gravity of the support member never lies above the pivot point, so that gravity is always able to bring the support member into the support position. Finally, the bow also ensures that the Placing or removing an object the support member can slide on the object.

Wie bereits früher ausgeführt wurde, können die Gelenkabschnitte so ausgebildet sein, dass sie eine Schwenkbewegung der Stützglieder um etwa 50 bis 90 Grad gestatten. Es ist daher möglich, dass der Gelenkabschnitt des Supports durch eine Nut und die Gelenkabschnitte der Stützglieder durch Drehzapfen gebildet sind. Die Nut ist dabei am Grund vorteilhaft kreisförmig ausgeweitet, um den Drehzapfen mit viel Spiel gefangenzuhalten. Dies ergibt eine äusserst einfache Konstruktion, bei welcher die Stützglieder mit ihren Gelenkabschnitten in die Nut des Supports eingeschoben werden können. Die Ausbildung der Stützglieder kann dabei so sein, dass sie einen vom Gelenkabschnitt sich erstreckenden Arm aufweisen. Dies ermöglicht die Fertigung der Stützglieder durch Ablängen von einem Metall- oder Kunststoffprofil. Dies erlaubt eine besonders billige Herstellung.As already stated earlier, the joint sections can be designed in such a way that they allow the support members to pivot about 50 to 90 degrees. It is therefore possible that the joint section of the support is formed by a groove and the joint sections of the support members are formed by pivot pins. The groove is advantageously expanded in a circular manner at the bottom in order to hold the pivot pin trapped with a lot of play. This results in an extremely simple construction in which the support members with their joint sections can be inserted into the groove of the support. The design of the support members can be such that they have an arm extending from the joint section. This enables the production of the support members by cutting to length from a metal or plastic profile. This allows a particularly cheap manufacture.

Die Befestigung der Stützvorrichtung an einem Bücherregal oder dergleichen kann auf verschiedene Weise erfolgen. Es ist vorteilhaft, wenn der Support einen Haftbelag aufweist, der durch eine Folie abgedeckt ist. Dies ermöglicht es, den Support nach Entfernung der Folie einfach an die gewünschte Fläche anzupressen, um ihn dort zu befestigen.The support device can be fastened to a bookshelf or the like in various ways. It is advantageous if the support has an adhesive covering which is covered by a film. This makes it possible to simply press the support onto the desired surface after removing the film in order to attach it there.

Statt die Stützglieder starr auszugestalten, ist es auch möglich, diese flexibel auszubilden. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass die ohnehin geringe Gefahr einer Beschädigung der abzulegenden Gegenstände noch weiter vermindert wird.Instead of making the support members rigid, it is also possible to design them flexibly. This has the advantage that the already low risk of damage to the objects to be deposited is reduced even further.

Wie Fig. 1 zeigt, besteht die Stützvorrichtung 10 aus einem Profil 11, z.B. aus Aluminium oder Kunststoff, welches an einem Fuss 13 eine Rippe 15 besitzt. Die Rippe 15 besitzt eine Nut 17, welche am Grund kreisförmig ausgeweitet ist. Diese Nut 17 dient der Aufnahme einer Vielzahl von Stützgliedern 19. Diese Stützglieder 19 können eine Schwenkbewegung von etwa 50 bis 90 Grad ausführen. Jedes Stützglied 19 besitzt einen Gelenkabschnitt 21 in Form eines Drehzapfens. Von diesem Drehzapfen 21 erstreckt sich ein Arm 23, welcher zum freien Ende 20 hin in Form eines Bogens 25 verläuft. Die Stützglieder 19 können vorteilhaft von einem Metall- oder Kunststoffprofil abgelängte Stücke sein. Die Befestigung der Stützeinrichtung 10 in einem Büchergestell, oder dergleichen, kann auf verschiedene Weise erfolgen, z.B. durch Festschrauben. Vorteilhaft ist aber der Fuss 13 des Supports 11 mit einem durch eine Folie 27 abgedeckten Haftbelag 29 versehen. Zur Befestigung der Stützvorrichtung wird die Folie abgezogen und die Stützvorrichtung an die zu befestigende Fläche angepresst.As shown in Fig. 1, the support device 10 consists of a profile 11, e.g. made of aluminum or plastic, which has a rib 15 on a foot 13. The rib 15 has a groove 17 which is circularly widened at the bottom. This groove 17 serves to receive a plurality of support members 19. These support members 19 can perform a pivoting movement of approximately 50 to 90 degrees. Each support member 19 has a hinge section 21 in the form of a pivot. An arm 23 extends from this pivot pin 21 and runs towards the free end 20 in the form of an arc 25. The support members 19 can advantageously be pieces cut to length from a metal or plastic profile. The support device 10 can be fastened in a book frame or the like in various ways, e.g. by screwing down. However, the foot 13 of the support 11 is advantageously provided with an adhesive covering 29 covered by a film 27. To attach the support device, the film is pulled off and the support device is pressed onto the surface to be attached.

Wie Fig. 1 zeigt, gibt es zur Anordnung der Stützvorrichtung 10 je nach dem zur Verfügung stehenden Raum verschiedene Möglichkeiten. Eine Möglichkeit besteht darin, dass die Stützvorrichtung 10 an der Wand 31 oder frei tragend zwischen den Seitenwänden des Regals 32 hinter den Büchern 33 angeordnet wird. Es ist aber auch möglich, die Stützvorrichtung 10 am Regal 32 über den Büchern 33 anzuordnen, wie dies im unteren Teil der Figur 1 dargestellt ist.As shown in FIG. 1, there are various possibilities for arranging the support device 10, depending on the space available. One possibility is that the support device 10 is arranged on the wall 31 or self-supporting between the side walls of the shelf 32 behind the books 33. However, it is also possible to arrange the support device 10 on the shelf 32 above the books 33, as is shown in the lower part of FIG. 1.

Wird nun ein Buch 33 in das Regal 32 geschoben, so werden die mit dem Buch 33 in Kontakt tretenden Stützglieder 19 entgegen der Schwerkraft bewegt. Die auf das Buch wirkenden Kräfte sind äusserst gering, so dass die Gefahr einer Beschädigung nicht besteht.If a book 33 is now pushed into the shelf 32, the support members 19 coming into contact with the book 33 are moved against the force of gravity. The forces acting on the book are extremely low, so there is no risk of damage.

Wird ein Buch 33 dem Regal 32 entnommen, so bewegen sich die oben oder hinten am Buch anliegenden Stützglieder 19 dank der Schwerkraft in die ursprüngliche Lage zurück. In dieser stützen sie die Bücher auf beiden Seiten des vorher vom Buch eingenommenen Raumes ab und halten so den Platz frei.If a book 33 is removed from the shelf 32, the support members 19 resting on the top or back of the book move back into the original position thanks to gravity. In this they support the books on both sides of the space previously occupied by the book and thus keep the space free.

Betrachtet man die im oberen Teil von Fig. 1 gezeigte Stützvorrichtung 10, welche hinter den Büchern 33 angeordnet ist, so sieht man, dass die Stützglieder 19, dort wo ein Buch fehlt, sich so erstrecken, dass der Berührungspunkt 26, mit dem sie beim Einschieben eines Buches zuerst mit diesem in Kontakt treten, höher liegt als der Drehzapfen 21. Es entsteht daher eine Kraftkomponente, die bestrebt ist, das jeweilige Stützglied in die Stellung zu bewegen, in welcher das freie Ende 20 an den Anschlag 13 anschlägt. In dieser oberen Stellung befindet sich der Schwerpunkt des Stützgliedes 19 in einem seitlichen und vertikalen Abstand über dem Drehzapfen 21, so dass beim Entfernen des Buches das Stützglied 19 durch die Schwerkraft in die untere Stellung, die Stützstellung, bewegt wird.Looking at the support device 10 shown in the upper part of FIG. 1, which is arranged behind the books 33, it can be seen that the support members 19, where a book is missing, extend in such a way that the point of contact 26 with which they are at Pushing a book into contact with it first, is higher than the pivot pin 21. A force component is therefore created which tends to move the respective support member into the position in which the free end 20 strikes the stop 13. In this upper position, the center of gravity of the support member 19 is at a lateral and vertical distance above the pivot pin 21, so that when the book is removed, the support member 19 is moved into the lower position, the support position, by gravity.

Fig. 3 zeigt eine Stützvorrichtung 10, die speziell für die Anordnung im Regal 32 über den Büchern 33 ausgebildet ist. Sie unterscheidet sich von der vorher beschriebenen Universal-Stützvorrichtung dadurch, dass die Stützglieder 19 längere Arme 23 aufweisen. Dies ermöglicht eine Stützfunktion auch bei relativ niedrigen Büchern. Umgekehrt hindert der kurze Bogen 25 auch nicht das Einführen von relativ grossen Büchern.Fig. 3 shows a support device 10 which is specially designed for arrangement on the shelf 32 above the books 33. It differs from the previously described universal support device in that the support members 19 have longer arms 23. This enables a support function even with relatively low books. Conversely, the short sheet 25 does not prevent the insertion of relatively large books.

Es sind verschiedene Aenderungen der Stützvorrichtung möglich, ohne von der Erfindung abzuweichen. So ist es beispielsweise möglich, die Stützglieder 19 flexibel auszugestalten. Wenn sie beispielsweise die Form einer Blattfeder besitzen, bleibt die Seitenstabilität erhalten, aber die Flexibilität verhindert auch bei unsorgfältigem Einführen von Büchern eine Beschädigung derselben.Various changes to the support device are possible without departing from the invention. For example, it is possible to design the support members 19 flexibly. For example, if they are in the form of a leaf spring, the lateral stability is retained, but the flexibility prevents them from being damaged even when the books are inserted carelessly.
