Definitions

  • the invention relates to a pocket knife with a plurality of functional parts, in particular knife blades, screwdriver blades, can openers, nail files, corkscrews and the like, which are arranged between two outer, each provided with a cover sheet and at least one middle plate, serving with each other by at least partially serving as a pivot axis for the functional parts Rivet bolts are connected, the functional parts interacting with spring pieces arranged between the plates, which in the end positions bring about a non-positive locking of the functional parts.
  • functional parts in particular knife blades, screwdriver blades, can openers, nail files, corkscrews and the like, which are arranged between two outer, each provided with a cover sheet and at least one middle plate, serving with each other by at least partially serving as a pivot axis for the functional parts Rivet bolts are connected, the functional parts interacting with spring pieces arranged between the plates, which in the end positions bring about a non-positive locking of the functional parts.
  • Pocket knives of the type described above are known. They usually have several functional parts pivotably mounted via rivet bolts, the functional surface of a functional part being designed either as a knife blade or as a screwdriver blade, can opener, nail file, corkscrew and the like. These functional parts are arranged between side by side and spaced parallel elongated boards which are connected to each other via rivet bolts and of which the outer boards are each provided with a cover sheet. These shape the appearance of the pocket knife and improve its grip.
  • a spring piece is arranged next to one or more functional parts, which ends with the outer contours of the boards.
  • the spring piece and functional parts of a gap are of the same thickness and thus specify the gap distance.
  • each functional part rests on an end face of the respective spring piece.
  • the functional parts interact with the spring parts in such a way that in preferred positions, in particular in the working position and in the rest position pivoted between the boards, the functional part is non-positively fixed by a flat contact with the spring piece, while in other positions the spring piece has a moment on it Exercises functional part, which promotes a return to preferred positions, in particular in the starting position between the boards and in the working position.
  • the functional parts are not only non-positively locked by the spring pieces; they are additionally positively fixed by striking an end face of the functional part against the outer end face of the spring piece if the working position is achieved by pivoting through 180 ° relative to the starting position.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a positive definition of at least one functional part in its position of use in both oppositely acting load directions while maintaining the known structure of a pocket knife of the type described above.
  • the middle plate is formed with at least one spring tongue acting transversely to the plane of the plate, which in the end position of one of the functional parts by positive engagement of an end face on a stop face of the functional part a positive locking of the functional part in question the position of use.
  • the spring tongue is formed in one piece as part of the board by forming a parting line and laterally deflected about its connecting line with the board transversely to the board plane. This results in an inexpensive design and arrangement of the spring tongue without the need for an additional component.
  • the parting line is designed to be corrugated according to a further feature of the invention, there is the advantage that, in the case of slide-grinding machining of the board produced by punching, the risk is avoided that another board gets caught in the parting line, which leads to damage would come.
  • the pocket knife shown as an exemplary embodiment comprises two outer plates 1, each of which is covered on its outside by a cover sheet 2, and a middle plate 3, each of which is at a predetermined distance from the outer plates 1, in order to place several functional parts 4, 4 'and 4' '.
  • Functional part 4 ' is a large knife blade
  • functional part 4' ' is a screwdriver blade with a crown cap opener.
  • the other three functional parts 4 are designed as Phillips screwdrivers, knife-like instrument clusters and screwdriver blades with capsule openers of smaller dimensions.
  • Each functional part 4, 4 'and 4'' is pivotally mounted on a rivet bolt 5, which at the same time connect the plates 1 and 3 to one another and serve as a holder for spring pieces 6 which just as the functional parts 4, 4 'and 4''' are each arranged between an outer board 1 and the middle board 3.
  • the spring pieces 6 each rest with part of their edge on the functional parts 4, 4 'and 4' ', in each case in the region of the pivot axis of the functional parts 4, 4' and 4 'formed by a rivet bolt 5 '.
  • the functional parts 4, 4 'and 4' ' are additionally in a form-fitting manner with a stop surface 4a on an end face 6a of the spring pieces 6, this form-fitting system, however, only acting in the pivoting direction, but not in the direction in which the functional parts 4, 4 are pivoted in 'and 4' 'between boards 1 and 3.
  • spring tongues 7 are provided which, in the exemplary embodiment, are formed in one piece with the middle plate 3, namely in that this middle plate 3 is divided by two parting lines 3a into the actual board 3 and into two spring tongues 7.
  • the spring tongues 7 are laterally deflected out of the plane of the circuit board 3, specifically about the axes shown in dash-dot lines in the drawing. They spring into their deflected, under position at an acute angle to the plane of the board 3 as soon as its ends are released by pivoting the functional part 4 'or 4''.
  • the joints 3a of the middle board 3 are corrugated. This prevents that in the case of slide-grinding machining of the boards produced by stamping, another board can enter the parting line 3a and get caught, which would damage the boards.
