Definitions

  • the invention relates to a frame with an inserted plate, in particular a table top, the frame having a plate holder corresponding to the shape of the plate or the table top and a frame supporting edge supporting the plate edge, pointing into the frame interior, in particular encircling it.
  • the frame takes up the plate or tabletop and it also supports it directly.
  • the frame is equipped with at least three table feet.
  • the frame is supported in another way, e.g. on consoles or the like. or as an intermediate plate between two tables, so of course the feet are omitted, but here, too, the plate is supported directly on the frame.
  • Frames or tables with a recessed plate are already known.
  • the plate is held in the frame due to its own weight.
  • the object of the invention is now to hold the table top in addition to its own weight in the frame so that it can at least not be easily removed from the frame.
  • the frame with an inserted plate is designed according to the preamble of claim 1 in accordance with the characterizing part of this claim. Because this plate is held in the frame on at least two mutually opposite edges or edge parts, it can only be removed from the frame as required if each locking member is brought into an ineffective position beforehand. This applies both to a round or oval frame and to a square one, the latter being able to have three or more corners.
  • the plate can neither be pushed up from below, nor removed in any other way, the latter being difficult anyway if the plate is deep enough or even completely in the Frame is embedded.
  • the weight of the plate also plays a decisive role when it comes to losing weight or taking it off easily.
  • the locking member is designed as a resiliently bendable lever with a locking shoulder or carries such a lever, the shoulder engaging under the frame projection or frame inner edge. Due to the inherent elasticity of the locking member, a separate locking member spring can be dispensed with, as a result of which the construction becomes simpler, cheaper and more robust. This also makes assembly easier.
  • the size and shape of the locking projection depends on the local conditions, in particular the shape and size of the frame projection or the frame inner edge. The latter can be created, for example, by undercutting or, if a profile is used, can be formed on the same.
  • a further embodiment of the invention is characterized in that the bendable lever of the locking member carries a latching projection which projects in the same direction as the locking projection and which engages in a latching recess when the locking member is locked. While the latching approach prevents the plate from being lifted out of the frame, the latching approach and the frame recess allow the plate to move in the plane of the plate relative to the frame. Of course, the forms of the catch and the frame recess are coordinated.
  • the latching projection has the shape of a spherical section or a hemisphere, which is directly molded onto the bendable lever can be.
  • the frame recess is therefore also approximately hemispherical.
  • the locking member can be pressed into the recess in the plate and held there by friction.
  • the locking projection and the locking projection protrude beyond the mouth edge of the pocket-like recess.
  • the bendable lever can also protrude slightly outward in this area. However, care must be taken to ensure that this does not impede the locking of the locking lug and the locking lug.
  • the material for this locking member is primarily plastic with appropriate properties.
  • the recesses for the locking members are arranged in a particularly advantageous manner with respect to the plate edge, so that the plate can optionally be inserted with one or the other surface upwards in the frame, i.e. can use as an insert.
  • the pivotable button mentioned there is located on the top of the frame so that you can easily press it by pressing it down. This pivoting movement is converted into a swiveling evasive movement of the locking member or its bendable lever.
  • the pivoting plane of the key extends, for example, in the vertical direction if the pivoting axis of the key extends in the horizontal direction, while the pivoting movement of the bendable lever is directed in the horizontal direction or parallel to the plane of the plate.
  • the button or a correspondingly designed part of the button that can be assigned to the bendable lever is put down at least after a certain pivoting angle of the actuating member on the outside of the locking projection.
  • the movable lever When the actuating member is pressed down harder, the movable lever is then pivoted into the interior of the pocket-like recess via the locking projection. As soon as the locking projection leaves the frame projection or the inner edge of the frame and at least partially has entered the pocket-like recess of the plate, the plate can be lifted at this point.
  • the actuator When the actuator is released, it returns to the starting position due to its load spring, whereby the bendable lever of the locking member is then released so that it also returns to the outside in the locking position under the effect of the inherent elasticity of its material.
  • the outer surface of the actuator runs flush with the frame surface. If the frame surface is not flat in this area, the outside of the actuator can be given a corresponding contour.
  • leg spring mentioned there must be dimensioned according to the cavity of the frame in this area. On the other hand, it must be strong enough to safely push the actuator back into the starting position from any pivot position.
  • double leg spring is understood to mean two leg springs which are arranged next to one another at a lateral spacing and are connected via an intermediate web. This construction has the advantage that it has a wide support base for the leg of the spring facing away from the key. The other leg or the other pair of legs is on the inside of the actuator.
  • the leg spring must be kept in a suitable manner in the frame. For this you can easily use the turns of the leg spring halves. However, it is also conceivable to merely hold or lock in place inside the frame.
  • a plate 2 is embedded in the frame 1, for example a table frame.
  • the upper plate surface 3 preferably runs approximately flush with the upper surface 4 of the frame 1.
  • the frame 1 is in the Embodiment square with rounded corners.
  • the plate 2 has a pure square shape.
  • the frame 1 consists of four corner pieces 5 and four straight connecting pieces 6 each inserted between two corner pieces.
  • the corner pieces and the straight connecting pieces are hollow profiles.
  • the cross section of the frame parts, including the corner pieces can be regarded as angular, with a horizontal angle leg 7 and an upstanding vertical angle leg 8.
  • the plate 2 rests on the horizontal angle legs, which form a circumferential support edge.
  • the other design of the profiles and in particular also the profile outer edge 9 are not important in connection with the design according to the invention. It can be designed in line with aesthetic requirements or customer requests.
  • the top of the one or horizontal angle leg 7 forms a circumferential frame support edge 10 for the edge region of the plate 2.
  • the plate 2 is locked to the frame 1 at two mutually opposite edges or edge parts.
  • it is provided on the relevant edges 11 with a spring-elastic deflectable locking member 12. This can be deflected towards the inside of the plate in the direction of arrow 13 (FIG. 1).
  • the plate 2 is provided with a pocket-like recess 15 for each locking member 12, the mouth of which lies in the associated plate edge 14.
  • the pocket-like recess is dimensioned in such a way that the locking member 12 finds just space therein and can preferably be held in a clamping manner. As can be seen particularly well from FIG.
  • the resiliently deflectable locking member engages under an inner frame projection or facing the plate edge Inner frame edge 16. This is created by an undercut 17 of the vertical angle leg 8. It is easy to see that the plate 2 can not be lifted from the frame 1 as a result in the direction of arrow 18.
  • the locking member 12 is equipped with a resiliently bendable lever which carries a barb-like locking projection 19 at its free end. According to FIG. 3, this is the part which engages under the frame inner edge 16.
  • the bendable lever of the locking member 12 also carries a locking lug 20 which projects in the same direction as the locking lug 19 and which engages in a frame recess 21 of corresponding shape and size when the locking member 12 is locked.
  • the relevant profile web is provided with a corresponding opening.
  • the locking member 12 essentially has the shape of a U-shaped bracket, one U-arm forming a fastening arm 22 and the other U-arm arm forming the bendable lever with the locking projection 19.
  • the spring tension of the locking member 12 is selected so that it always protrudes over the plate edge 14 in the installed state.
  • a special actuation is required to disengage.
  • an actuating member 23 is used, which in the exemplary embodiment is designed in the manner of a spring-loaded pivotable button. According to FIG. 2, the actuating member 23 can be pivoted about an axis 24 in the direction of the arrow 25, ie it can be pressed into the interior of the hollow profile. If no hollow profile is used, the must at this point Receive a corresponding recess in the profile.
  • the actuator 23 designed as a pivotable button is shown in Figure 2 with solid lines in the starting position and with dashed lines in the pivot end position, in which the locking projection 19 of the locking member 12 is fully released. It can also be seen from this figure that the free end of the actuating device 23 has on its underside a thin extension 26 with which it engages under the front edge of the recess 27 of the spar or, more precisely, in the embodiment of the corner piece 5. As a result, the loading spring 28 cannot push the actuating member 23 out of this recess. In an aesthetically particularly favorable manner, the outer surface of the actuating member 23 runs flush with the surface of the frame profile that is angled in this area.
  • the actuating member 23 has a thickening 29 near its pivot axis 24. This is arranged in such a way that in the actuating end position the flexible lever of the locking member 12 is pressed so far into the pocket-like recess 15 that the locking projection 19 but also the locking projection 20 is released.
  • the loading spring 28 is designed as a double leg spring. It finds sufficient space inside the hollow profile and is secured in a suitable manner, for example by inserting a bolt anchored in the profile through its windings 30.
  • the actuating member 23 not only by hand, but also with the aid of a double hook serving to attach an intermediate plate attached thereto or an actuating tool 31 accordingly Shaping can be operated.
  • This double hook or this tool is indicated with dashed lines in a starting position and with dash-dotted lines in the suspended position or actuation end position.
  • the double hook has an approximately U-shaped cross section, wherein a U-leg can dip into the recess 27 of the profile of a table and thereby causes the actuating member 23 to pivot against the resistance of the spring 28.
  • a frame is equipped with such an actuatable locking device for the inserted plate 2 in several places, then with the help of the double hooks or one actuating tool each, all actuating members can be held in the pivoted down position, and then the plate 2 can be removed from the frame 1 . If, as provided in the exemplary embodiment, it runs flush with the frame at the top, the plate must be lifted through the frame from the bottom until it can be grasped from above. The plate is expediently used in this position of all actuators. The locking takes place automatically when all operating tools are removed.
  • the plate corner area 32 is assigned two actuating members 23 which are equidistant from the corner edge.
  • its frame 1 is therefore equipped with four actuators 23.
  • a locking member 12 to each of these actuators, rather two or four locking members are entirely sufficient, one being mounted on each longitudinal edge of the panel in the latter case.
  • the whole construction is therefore more versatile, more universally applicable and ultimately this design also makes it aesthetic seen positive moment.
  • this frame provided with a plate 2 is a very universally usable component, which is preferably used for tables, but which is also otherwise used as a connecting plate between two tables and the like. can be exploited.
  • it is a purely modular system that can be expanded as required. From this it follows indirectly that the plate does not have to be square or even square, rather all other plate shapes from the triangle to the polygon or even to the round plate are possible.
  • the locking member carries at both ends round, pin-like end pieces 33 and 34, which contribute to a good anchoring in the pocket-like recess 15 and which allow this recess to be created by means of a finger cutter.
