Definitions

  • the invention relates to a case for receiving and transporting objects, in particular tools and work material, from at least two elements which are articulated to one another via at least one hinge and of which a lower element as a receiving space for receiving and transporting the objects and an upper one Element is designed as a cover for the lower element, the case having at least one locking device for holding a relative position of the elements with the receiving space closed by the cover.
  • Such tool cases are known in various forms and designs. As a rule, it is a simple case shell, which is covered by a lid, the contents of the case shell being accessible after lifting the lid.
  • These cases can be made of metal or plastic, but their function is very limited, since only a predetermined receiving space and a single fixed position of a handle is available relative to the receiving space.
  • the present invention has for its object to develop a case of the type mentioned, which does not have these disadvantages, variable in its function, preferably expandable in its receiving space while maintaining the balance on the handle, and in which the content is easy for the user is accessible.
  • each element designed as a receiving space is a module of a module system which is based on one of other modules of the module system is stackable.
  • the case consists of modules, which can be stacked and connected or easily detachably connected to one another as required, so that the entire available recording space can be expanded or reduced at any time as required, in a modular manner.
  • Each module preferably has at least one base shell with a bottom and a peripheral side shell with two side walls, a rear wall and a front wall, with hinge sleeves being located on the rear wall.
  • the side walls, the rear wall and the front wall are preferably double-walled, an outer skin and an inner skin enclosing a circumferential inner chamber.
  • This inner chamber is used to hold other elements for modular expansion of the case.
  • a slide track can be inserted into the inner chamber of the side walls, which cooperates with a slide on a connecting rod with the next module.
  • This slide track is specially designed and is used overall for easy use of the case, while allowing easy assembly and modular expansion of the case. It is essential that the cover or a module can be opened relative to the module below it without attacking the connecting rod, held in the open position and closed again.
  • At least two positions of two modules can be determined in relation to one another in the interaction of the slider and connecting rod, one of the positions being defined by a detent trough, the slideway having an elongated guideway and an elastic strip, the detent trough being located at one end of the guideway , while the other end of the guideway, which is remote from the locking recess, forms a slot together with the elastic strip, the width of which can be changed by the strip being elastically deformed by the slider.
  • the above-mentioned guideway is preferably designed as a rising surface, forming a clasp-shaped central part together with a lower strip. As a result, it tilts into the recessed recess and there forms an abutment for the slider, while the lower strip, together with the above-mentioned base strip, delimits a path for returning the slider to its rest position.
  • the elastic strip preferably consists of an overrun strip and an adjoining sliding strip which runs approximately in one plane of the guideway, while the overrun strip engages under the middle part or the guideway.
  • the slide strip is located approximately in the plane of the guideway and then kinks towards the overrun strip.
  • the slot mentioned above is formed with the end of the guideway.
  • the slot has a width that is in any case smaller than the diameter of the slider. The slider thus runs, provided that it is above the guideway or on the sliding strip, over this slot. However, if it comes from below, guided on the curb, to the slot, this slot limits its movement until the slot has opened to a width that the slider can pass through the slot.
  • An elongated base strip which runs below the guideway and also engages under the locking recess, preferably adjoins the overrun strip. This ensures good guidance of the slider below the guideway.
  • the base strip runs below the guideway and also below the locking trough, so that if the slider falls out or slides out of the locking trough, the slider can fall onto this base strip and is then guided along this base strip.
  • the base strip preferably leads to an outlet from the element at its end remote from the overrun strip and the elastic strip. This makes it possible, on the one hand, to insert the slider comfortably into the guideway, on the other hand, if desired, to remove it from the guideway in order to detach one element from the other.
  • the locking trough is preferably delimited by a first hook which, together with a second hook and in the extension of the guideway beyond the locking trough, forms a passage for the slider through which the slider can reach the base strip. This ensures that the slider can now easily slide back in the opposite direction after being moved beyond the locking trough into the passage.
  • the one hook is approximately straight and the other hook is curved so that, in the extension of the guideway beyond the locking trough, on the one hand in front of the area of the passage for the glider, an operator can feel the locking of the glider, and on the other hand in the area of the passage for the glider to accomplish a guidance of the glider that is clearly perceptible to the operator.
  • the outlet is preferably located in a cover strip of the slide track, from which the second hook also bends and which overlaps the guide track. Consequently the second hook runs away from the cover strip to form the passage for the return of the glider together with the other hook.
  • the slider can be extended out of the latching recess against an elastic resistance of a securing member and, if appropriate, also retracted into the latching recess.
  • the securing member can preferably be designed as an elastic securing strip, which is arranged on a cover strip of the slide track approximately opposite the locking trough and together with the rising surface forms a bottleneck for the passage of the slider, the second hook and the elastic securing strip preferably together as one integral part can be formed on the cover strip.
  • the glider has to push the securing strip away in order to get out of the locking trough through the bottleneck or, if necessary, also to get into the locking trough.
  • securing member is also conceivable, for example as a securing pad made of foam, etc. This ensures that the glider does not accidentally move out of the locking trough, but can only fall behind the locking trough and slide back along the base strip when the elements of one of them position defined by the detent should return to the other position if desired.
  • each hinge part is inserted into the inner chamber of the rear wall from below and fixed there.
  • Each hinge part preferably has two hinge sleeves, which form a space between them for dividing a hinge sleeve of the subsequent base shell.
  • the hinge sleeves sit on a bracket in which there is a wall is provided, from which at least one spring tongue is formed, for example by punching or the like.
  • the locking device is located in separate columns which are molded onto the corner regions between the front wall and the side walls.
  • the columns consist of a tower-like wall and are closed at the top by a column ceiling.
  • there is an opening in the column ceiling into which a bolt or a latching hook of a bolt of the subsequent module can engage, so that this latching hook engages under the column ceiling in the closed position.
  • the bolt is preferably attached to a bat-shaped plate which is inserted into a column from below and is attached, for example, by screws.
  • the main part of the bolt is a bolt body, which is shaped like a segment of a circle. At one end, this locking body is seated in a pivot hole by means of a pivot pin, and it can rotate about this pivot pin in the pivot hole.
  • this spring leg is supported by a spring leg on a rib that protrudes from the plate into the interior of the column.
  • This spring leg causes an opposite stop edge of the latch body to strike another rib, so that the latch body is held between these two ribs, but can move against the force of the spring leg.
  • This movement is brought about by a slide bar which is located on the outside of the column, but which is connected to the locking body after reaching around a lower edge of the column and reaching through an arch segment in the plate. This arch segment is also penetrated by the locking hook.
  • the locking hook By simply moving the slide bar along the surface of the column, the locking hook is removed from it Moves the closed position into an open position in which it no longer engages under the subsequent pillar ceiling or a locking edge provided there, so that the locking of the pillars to one another is released.
  • each column for receiving an appropriately designed projection on a carrying handle.
  • This handle can be attached to any module of the case by inserting the molded parts into the undercut groove and closing the remaining slot openings with compensating pieces. A difference between the height of the formations on the carrying handle and the undercut groove can also be compensated for by compensating pieces.
  • the advantage of these measures is that the carrying handle can be used on any module and on top of it using compensating pieces at any height, so that the carrying handle can be optimally positioned approximately above the expected center of gravity of the loaded case and the case spontaneously an acceptable position when carried maintains.
  • the handle can be roughly positioned by mounting on a selected module, and the handle can also be finely positioned using the compensating pieces.
  • a frame which closes both the downwardly open inner chamber of the rear wall and the inner chamber of the side walls, the front wall and the pillars.
  • This frame preferably also has feet and caps which cooperate with corresponding troughs and feet on a lid of a subsequent case, so that corresponding cases can also be stacked on top of one another.
  • the frame is connected to the base shell by means of clip connections, with corresponding locking hooks on the frame overlap locking lugs on the base shell.
  • the cover is also designed similarly to a base shell or a module, although it does not have a bottom but a cover plate. Its corresponding columns are, of course, designed to be lower and are covered at the top by a cover plate into which the recess just mentioned is formed, which cooperates with a cap of a suitcase placed on it.
  • the modules of the case according to the invention should not only be usable for the case itself, but also as a drawer.
  • a handle frame can be clipped on, which in particular has a handle.
  • a module equipped in this way is then placed on an extract from a rack and can now be moved out of the rack as a drawer. If the module is then to be transported again, the handle frame can easily be detached and the module can be reinstalled in a case. In this way, a variable and versatile usable, easily assembled and easily changeable case is created.
  • a case R is constructed according to FIG. 1 from individual modules M and has a lid 1 and a lower part 3.
  • a number of middle parts 2 can be arranged in between. In the embodiment shown as an example in FIG. 1, two middle parts 2 are provided, but the cover 1 could also be directly adjacent to the lower part 3.
  • the cover 1 is connected to a central part 2, this to another central part 2 and the latter to the lower part 3 via a respective hinge 4.
  • the lid 1 can be lifted from the adjacent one central part 2, the one central part 2 from the adjacent other central part 2, or the other central part 2 from the adjacent lower part 3 in order to make the content of the relevant central part 2 or lower part 3 accessible.
  • At least one slide track 6 is integrated into the side wall 5 of the middle parts 2 and of the lower part 3, which interacts with a connecting rod 7 articulated on the element located above it.
  • a connecting rod is also articulated in the cover 1, but no slide track is integrated.
  • the connecting rod 7 is shown in a position of use, in which the two middle parts 2 connected by this connecting rod 7 are in an open position and are securely supported.
  • a slider 8 which is designed, for example, as a bolt fixed to one end of the connecting rod 7, is located in a detent depression 9 of the slide track 6 of the lower of the two connected middle parts 2.
  • the connecting rod 7 is articulated via a swivel joint 10 on the side wall 5 of the upper of the two connected middle parts 2 and, if necessary, releasably connected.
  • the connecting rod 7a is shown in a position of use in which the two elements connected by this connecting rod 7, namely the lower part 3 and the previously mentioned lower one of the two central parts 2, are in a closed position.
  • the connecting rod 7a is now articulated via a swivel joint 10 on the side wall 5 of the middle part 2 just mentioned and, if necessary, detachably connected, while the corresponding slider 8a is supported on an elastic strip 11 of the slide 6 which is described in more detail below and which is on the lower part 3 is arranged.
  • the slide track 6 will now be explained in more detail with reference to FIG. 2.
  • different stages of the interaction of the slide track 6 with the connecting rod 7 or the slide 8 are shown in dashed and dash-dotted lines.
  • the rest position of the slide track 6 is marked with I. In this rest position, the slider 8 rests on the elastic strip 11.
  • the slider 8 first runs a little on one part of the elastic strip 11, and it then slides along a guideway 12 designed as a rising surface, which together with a lower strip 13 forms a clasp-shaped central part 14 of the slideway 6.
  • the guideway 12 tilts towards the locking trough 9 and there it is coupled or connected or operatively connected to the lower strip 13.
  • an upwardly directed first hook 15 is formed after the latching depression 9, ie in the extension of the guideway 12 beyond the latching depression 9, which together with a downwardly directed second hook 16 forms a passage 17.
  • the upwardly directed first hook 15 is approximately straight and the downwardly directed second hook 16 is curved.
  • This second hook 16 is integrally formed on a cover strip 18 of the slide track 6, which in turn also delimits an upper chamber 19 of the element 2 or 3, in which the slide track 6 and also the guided slide 8 are located.
  • the second hook 16 protrudes downward from the cover strip 18 approximately with respect to the locking recess 9 and is at least partially designed as an elastic securing strip in order to act as a securing member for the slider 8.
  • the second hook 16 or the part thereof acting as a securing strip creates a bottleneck for the passage of the slider 8 just before the passage 17.
  • the slider 8 must first reach the aforementioned bottleneck in order to reach the passage 17 go through what is done against the elastic resistance of the security strip.
  • the slider 8 must elastically push the hook or securing strip 16 away in order to get out of the locking trough 9 through the bottleneck or, if appropriate, also to get into the locking trough 9.
  • the chamber 19 has only one outlet 20, which is arranged approximately in the extension of the guideway beyond the locking trough and the second hook 16. Through this outlet 20, the slider 8 can be introduced into the chamber 19 and out again, so that the two elements under consideration can be connected to and detached from one another by the connecting rod 7.
  • the connecting rod 7 is then in the intermediate position marked II and shown in broken lines. Now the connecting rod 7 no longer prevents the upper element from closing on the lower one, because the slider 8 can now run along a base strip 21 until it reaches a run-up strip 25 of the base strip 21 at the end elastic strip 11 runs up.
  • This overrun position is identified by III, the overrun strip 25 forming a stop for the slider 8 and thereby limiting the movement of the connecting rod 7.
  • the elastic strip 11 forms, together with the end of the clasp-shaped central part 14 which is more distant from the locking trough 9, a slot 22 which can be changed in width b, the slider 8 squeezing into this slot 22 when it hits the elastic strip 11 and the elastic strip 11 thereby Increasing the width b gives way.
  • the slider 8 can slide through the slot 22 and in this way return to its rest position I. After the slider 8 has passed through the slot 22, it closes again to the width b, so that the slider 8 can slide over the slot 22 from the lower one when opening or lifting the upper of the two elements and not undesirably through the slot 22 back down through.
  • the entire elastic strip 11 consists of a sliding strip 24, which runs approximately in the plane of the rising surface 12 and the end of which is in the vicinity of the run-up strip 25, and of a run-up strip 23 adjoining this sliding strip 24, forming the slot 22 with the central part 14 , which is itself connected to the base strip 21 and merges into this.
  • FIG. 3 shows a possibility of connecting modules of different heights.
  • the height of the various modules is staggered by a modular height difference which is equal to the vertical distance between the possible positions of the connecting rods 7, 7a, 7b shown in FIG. 3, while the modules are essentially identical in their other design.
  • Tongue-shaped tabs 27a and 27b can now be arranged on the slide track 6 or on its housing 26, each of which has a swivel joint 10a and 10b for the connecting rod 7 if this is to be in the position or height position 7a or 7b.

  • This grip frame 86 can be clipped onto a base shell 28 via corresponding hooks 52, so that this entire arrangement can then be placed as a drawer, for example on a corresponding pull-out of a rack.
  • the base shell is not used to form a case, but to form a drawer.
  • a clip connection is understood to mean the interaction between a latching hook 62 and a latching lug 64.
  • the hooks 52 are also formed, which then also engage under corresponding latching lugs in the base shell or the cover.
  • the case can consist of only one module.
  • latch 74 is placed on plates 67, the pivot pin 75 being located in the pivot hole 73 and the spring leg 79 abutting against one rib 72 and thus pressing the stop edge 80 of the latch 74 against the other rib 71.
  • this plate 67 is inserted into the respective column of the cover 1 and fixed by screws.
  • the latch 74 engages around a column edge, so that the push bar 77 strikes the column 34a from the outside.
  • the lid 1 is placed on the lower part 3, so that the hinge sleeves 41 engage between the hinge sleeves 38 of the lower part 3.
  • the connection is made then over a hinge rod which is pushed through the hinge sleeves.
  • the cover 65 needs to be placed on the cover 1 and the carrying handle 36 with its formations 37 is inserted into the undercut grooves 35 of the columns 34, thus producing a case.
  • the cover 1 is detached from the lower part 3 by pulling the hinge rod out of the hinge sleeves and one or more modules or middle parts 2 are successively placed on the lower part 3.
  • Corresponding hinge parts 40 are then inserted into the rear wall of these middle parts 2, which are fixed there by the interaction of the spring tongue 46 and the locking lug 47.
  • the corresponding bars are in the columns, as described above for the lid.
  • the handle 36 can then be inserted into one of the middle parts 2. It goes without saying that a corresponding connection is also made to the slide track 6 via the connecting rod 7 and the slider 8 when the middle parts 2 are put on.
  • a module M is used as a drawer, it is sufficient if the cover 1 and the other modules are removed and a handle frame 86 is clipped onto the module M instead. Now this module can be placed on a corresponding pull-out of a rack and thus serves as a drawer. If the module is needed again to form a case, it is sufficient to remove the handle frame 86 and in turn to connect it to the other modules of the case R.
