Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a wall element with a wall body and at least one this attached edge profile, which is at least an edge profile an arched outward Has surface, with textile material or is coated with Velcro and runs lengthways an edge of the wall body, which Edge profile consists of a tube, which on at least part of its outer surface its scope with the textile material or Velcro is coated, and on the wall body at least one fillet is provided, which picks up the tube and partially encompasses it.
  • From CH-A-632034 is a connection arrangement of walls with at least one, in itself fixed support part and at least one with known releasably connected wall part.
  • opposing connecting surfaces are complementary trained to face each other to lie. At least a part of these to lie on top of each other provided surfaces is like a burdock trained to connect them ensure and pivoting of the walls impossible while preserving the position of use.
  • the carrier part is e.g. as cylindrical Tube formed, then the walls are cylindrical have concave complementary surfaces.
  • the Velcro-like connection is made by means of a Hook tape and a loop tape.
  • the carrier part can also be a polygonal tube.
  • the Coating of the carrier part with Velcro material or textile material requires the highest Precision, both what the dimensions of the Velcro or textile material as well in terms of targeting. Because otherwise creates a joint or an overlay that can also go wrong. In addition, it can In the course of time in operation to signs of change of the Velcro material come from the carrier part.
  • DE-U-722826 discloses a room divider at least one connection support element for at least one partition, the connection support element from a vertical tubular body and inserted in the ends, over the ends of the tubular body extending connecting elements is formed with coaxial ring slots.
  • Each partition has a header with one adapted to the outer surface of the tubular body, in Cross section of concave outer surface and starting from it upper and lower protrusions with it subsequent hook approaches for engaging in the ring slots.
  • DE-A-3603453 is a partition or partition for exhibition stands, exhibition and office spaces, Galleries or the like. This has panels or Plates with which holding rails on the with each other aligned narrow sides of the plates are arranged, which by means of detachable connecting tabs can be coupled. Since the Retaining rails on the continuing plate edges are attached via the coupling the holding rails also the plates on their mutually facing edges held together and put together.
  • the connection tabs have as fastening or coupling elements two approximately parallel to their extension same coupling pin protruding on the same side Attack on mating couplings, expediently Perforations on the support rails to be connected.
  • the distance between these coupling pins on the Connecting strap is adjustable and at Coupling and connecting reducible and in this Position can be determined so that the end faces of the Holding rails using the tabs and their Coupling pin firmly joined together and against each other can be braced. This will not just the plates on their facing each other Edges tensile, but also against Fixed pivoting movements.
  • FR-A-2570408 also concerns wall elements for Construction of partitions that can be implemented Subdivision of rooms serve. Every wall element has two domed, with Velcro material coated, in cross section approximately semicircular edge profiles. Through that Velcro provided at the edges of the wall elements can quickly create two or more wall elements be connected to each other. By after externally curved surface of the opposite one another Edge profiles of two wall elements can these in any angular position be connected to each other.
  • edge profile has a Cross section of approximately mushroom-shaped shape; the surface curved outwards is from a half cylinder shell formed on the two Longitudinal edges radially inward, in an axial plane of the cylinder shell Connect contact surfaces, of which in turn Project detent springs.
  • the Velcro is at the well-known edge profile not only on the through half the cylindrical shell formed domed Surface applied; it is rather the Long edges of the cylinder shell hammered in and also lies on the contact surfaces of the edge profile in order to avoid signs of detachment with the edge profile installed from the contact surfaces of the wall body is held. Also are larger ones with Velcro strapped on the side Manufacturing tolerances allowed, and also the visual impression of the finished wall element improved by wrapping the Velcro.
  • the object of the present invention is to achieve this based on creating a wall element which the disadvantages of does not have known wall elements.
  • the structural design of the wall element open the possibility that the prefabricated, coated with Velcro Edge profiles before they are mounted on the wall body can also be stored over a longer period of time can without it in the edge areas of the Velcro comes to signs of detachment, and that when coating the edge profiles with Velcro or textile material a coarser Tolerance is sufficient, at the same time a detachment of the Velcro or textile material from the edge profile even with securely mounted wall elements should be permanently excluded.
  • the Velcro tape needs therefore not to be kinked; one by the Rigidity of the Velcro caused a tendency there are no longer any signs of detachment.
  • the invention Nowhere do you design the Velcro strongly curved that it is impermissibly strong would be claimed.
  • Another advantage of Invention is to be mentioned that the prefabrication of the Edge profile is extremely simple; because that Pipe only needs to be laid out with an Velcro coated with an adhesive film to become. A time consuming alignment of the Velcro tape with regard to the edge profile its location can be accounted for. And through that Rolling up the tube will cause blistering safely avoided under the Velcro.
  • the design of the wall element lies in that the edge profile by its design maximum rigidity as a tube owns. So it doesn't need to be about entire length connected to the wall body will; rather, an attachment of the Edge profile with the wall body on some few points.
  • each edge profile with two provided in the area of its end faces Holding elements attached to the wall body is.
  • Holding elements attached to the wall body is.
  • holding elements for the Pipes come in particular with an eccentric Quick tendons in question.
  • the above-mentioned tendons Eccentric discs and hinged to them Have holding claws. Every quick release is existing on the front of the unit from the wall body and the pipe to be fastened placed by the eccentric in a Borehole provided in the face of the wall body is used and the holding claw in the front the attached pipe engages. By twisting the claw is tightened on the eccentric disc and prestressed the pipe against the wall body. It is particularly useful if each tube notched at the end to form a Cutout in which the holding claw of a Quick-action tendon or other holding element can intervene. Because with such a Design, the holding element can be sunk and dimension the edge profile just as long become like the wall body; this favors the optical appearance of the invention Wall element.
  • the fastening profile is clamped for fastening of holders, carriers or the like. on the erected Wall element.
  • a fastening profile can, for example, as a perforated rail be formed in its externally accessible Holes hooked the holder, carrier or the like will.
  • a mounting profile Clamping rail under consideration, one facing outwards has projecting clamping edge on which the Holders, carriers or the like are placed can.
  • the pipe provided expediently consists of Plastic, aluminum or steel; made of plastic Manufactured pipes are preferred stiffened by ribs arranged inside.
  • this is an edge profile of the Wall element with hard Velcro and the other Edge profile of the wall element with soft Velcro can be fitted, but this is not imperative; for special uses it can also be useful on both edge profiles to provide the same Velcro tape.
  • both edge profiles one Wall element as tubes and the explained preferred Fastening the edge profiles to the wall body can be with the same benefits on wall elements where only one edge profile with Velcro, the other on the other hand, is equipped with textile material, as is the case with wall elements arranged at the ends a partition is generally the case is. And also with wall elements, where as a result their isolated placement both edge profiles instead of Velcro with textile material are coated, the invention use with the advantages described. Finally, an application of the invention is also possible with such wall elements, which only one edge profile with one suitable for attaching another wall element have curved surface while on the opposite edge of the wall body a differently designed in any way Edge profile may be provided or a Edge profile may even be missing.
  • the two vertical edges of the wall body 1, of which only the right one in the Drawing is shown with a three-sided fillet 2 provided.
  • a fillet rail 3 is inserted in the fillet, which are accessible from the outside along their long edges Has recesses in which small hooks can be hung.
  • the Cross section of the perforated rail 3 is on those the fillet 2 adjusted so that the perforated rail on the surface of the fillet fits evenly.
  • the tube 4 forming the edge profile is inserted.
  • the tube 4 is over 80% of its circumference with the Velcro tape 5 coated. Only in that Wall body 1 facing area has that Tube 4 has no Velcro coating. The Edges of the Velcro tape 5 are thus under the side surfaces of the perforated rail 3 or the fillet 2 delimiting flanks 6 of the Wall body to lie.
  • the thickness of the wall body 1, the width of the perforated rail 3 and the Diameter of the tube 4 are in the way coordinated that the fully assembled Wall element a smooth outer surface comprises by between the parts mentioned there is a smooth transition.
  • a groove 7 or 8 in which, for example electrical lines can be laid.
  • the grooves are in the fully assembled partition by means of covers, not shown disguised so that there is a smooth upper and lower end edge of the finished wall element results.
  • each a cylindrical Hole 9 introduced in the area of the grooves 7 and 8 is in the wall body 1 each a cylindrical Hole 9 introduced.
  • Is in this hole each an eccentric 10 of a holding element 11 used.
  • the eccentric disc 10 has one opposite the bore 9 minimally reduced diameter, so they sits in the hole without play, but at the same time without too much effort in the hole can be twisted. Every holding element 11 has in addition to the eccentric 10 on this eccentrically struck claw 12, which is angled at its free end is.
  • each holding claw 12 protrudes each holding claw 12 through a cutout 14 in the tube 4 inside and lies on the inner surface of the tube 4.
  • the fastening profile 3 has on the end face Cutouts 16, which form cutouts 14 correspond to the pipe and through which the fastening claws 12 pass through.
  • Each eccentric disc 10 has a face slot-shaped recess 15 in which a screwdriver can be used to the eccentric 10 in the bore 9 the assembly of the tube 4 in the manner and in to twist in the direction that the holding claw 12 is moved in the direction of arrow "x".
  • the length of the tube 4 corresponds to the height of the Wall body 1, so that the finished wall element has a smooth upper and lower front edge.
