Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Spielhütte oder -wand, die weitgehend undurchsichtig ist und einen Innenraum zumindest teilweise umschließt.The invention relates to a game hut or -wall that is largely opaque and one At least partially encloses the interior.

Spielhütten sind in vielfältigen Formen und Farben bekannt. Meistens handelt es sich dabei um Holzkonstruktionen für den Innenbereich, welche in der Regel einen Eingang, mehrere Fenster und zum Teil auch mehrere Ebenen aufweisen, die über Leitern, Kletterbäume oder Treppen miteinander verbunden sind. Aufgrund der kindlichen Phantasie kann im einfachsten Fall aber auch ein durch eine z.B. halbkreisförmige Wand abgeschlossener Raum als Spielhütte dienen. Insbesondere beim Spiel in Gruppen ist dabei der Sichtschutz wesentliches Funktionsmerkmal, so daß die Möglichkeit besteht, sich zu verstecken oder einzeln bzw. in kleineren Gruppen zurückzuziehen. An Spielhütten im Freien, die auch einen Schutz vor Wind, Regen oder Sonne darstellen, sind oftmals noch weitere Spielgeräte wie z.B. eine Rutsche, ein Schwungseil oder eine Seilbahn angebracht. In den sich immer mehr durchsetzenden Naturspielplätzen sind auch Spielhütten aus angepflanzten, lebenden Weiden anzutreffen. Die Weiden sind dazu ungefähr entlang einer Kreislinie angepflanzt und so miteinander verflochten, daß sich eine seitlich geschlossene Hütte ergibt. Das Ziel dieses Hüttenbaus ist es, den Kindern naturnahe Erlebnisse zu vermitteln. Die Kinder können helfen die Weiden anzupflanzen, das Wachstum beobachten und nach und nach aus den Weiden die Hütte flechten.Playhouses come in a variety of shapes and colors known. Most of the time, these are wooden structures for indoor use, which is usually an entrance, several windows and some also have several levels that are above ladders, Climbing trees or stairs connected together are. Because of the child's imagination simplest case but also by e.g. semicircular wall enclosed space as Serve game hut. Especially when playing in groups the privacy screen is an essential function, so that there is a chance to hide or individually or in smaller groups withdraw. At outdoor play huts, too provide protection against wind, rain or sun, are often other play equipment such as a Slide, a swing rope or a cable car attached. In the increasingly popular natural playgrounds are also play huts made of planted to encounter living pastures. The willows are planted approximately along a circular line and so intertwined that a hut closed on the side results. The goal It is this hut construction that gives children a natural experience to convey. The children can help planting the pastures, watching the growth and gradually weave the hut out of the pastures.

Als nachteilig ist anzusehen, daß sich für die Kinder das Erfolgserlebnis erst sehr spät einstellt, da erst nach ungefähr ein bis zwei Jahren eine Nutzung als Höhle oder Spielhütte möglich ist. Wegen der natürlichen Ungeduld verlieren die Kinder während des langen Zeitraumes das Interesse. Außerdem erlebt ein beträchtlicher Teil der Kinder die fertige Spielhütte nicht mehr, da sie inzwischen die betreuende Einrichtung (z.B. Kindergarten) verlassen haben.It is to be seen as a disadvantage that for the children the sense of achievement stops very late, since it only takes about a year or two to use as a cave or play hut. Because of children lose natural impatience during long interest. Furthermore a considerable part of the children experience the finished one Play hut no longer, since they are now the leave the supervising institution (e.g. kindergarten) to have.

Demgegenüber hat sich die Erfindung zur Aufgabe gemacht, eine Spielhütte auszugestalten, die sofort zum Spielen zur Verfügung steht und trotzdem naturnahe Erlebnisse vermittelt.In contrast, the invention has set itself the task to design a game hut that immediately is available to play and still close to nature Experiences conveyed.

Erfindungsgemäß wird die Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß sie aus einem Weidengeflecht besteht, in das mindestens drei, im wesentlichen vertikal ausgerichtete Stäbe eingeflochten sind, die bodenseitig über das Weidengeflecht hervorstehen.According to the invention, the object is achieved by that it consists of a wicker, into which at least three, substantially vertically aligned Rods are woven into the bottom protrude over the wicker.

Wesentliches Merkmal der Erfindung ist, daß die Spielhütte ausschließlich aus Naturmaterialien besteht und schadstoffrei ist. Das Weidengeflecht wird von den Stäben getragen und verstärkt, so daß sich die Formstabilität wesentlich verbessert, wobei mindestens drei, nicht auf einer Linie angeordnete Stäbe die Standsicherheit erhöhen. Der bodenseitige Überstand der Stäbe stellt einerseits geeignete Verankerungspunkte für die Hütte dar und bewirkt bei der Aufstellung einen Abstand des Geflechtes zum Boden, so daß sich die Abnutzung verringert und im Freien ein Schutz gegen den Angriff von Schadorganismen gegeben ist.An essential feature of the invention is that the Game hut consists exclusively of natural materials and is free of pollutants. The wicker is supported and reinforced by the bars so that the dimensional stability improves significantly, whereby at least three, not in a line Bars increase stability. The bottom side Overhang of the bars on the one hand provides suitable Anchor points for the hut and creates a space between the braids when installed to the floor so that wear is reduced and protection against attack outdoors is given by harmful organisms.

Die Vorteile der Erfindung sind vor allen Dingen darin zu sehen, daß die Spielhütte den Kindern sowohl bei der Aufstellung im Freien wie im Inneren von Gebäuden einen natürlichen Spielraum bietet, der sofort nutzbar ist. Während sie im Außenbereich einen Witterungs- und Sichtschutz darstellt, steht im Innenbereich die Funktion als Raumteiler zur Abgrenzung von Rückzugsbereichen, etwa Puppen- oder Kuschelecken, im Vordergrund. Das offene Geflecht bietet vielfältige Spielmöglichkeiten, beispielsweise indem Stoff- oder Papierstreifen oder Weidenruten eingeflochten werden.The advantages of the invention are above all to be seen in the fact that the children's playhouse both when installed outdoors and indoors offers a natural scope for buildings, which can be used immediately. While outdoors represents weather and privacy protection in the interior the function as a room divider for demarcation of retreat areas, such as dolls or Comfort corners, in the foreground. The open network offers a variety of play options, for example by strips of cloth or paper or wicker rods be woven in.

Die Verankerung der Hütte läßt sich wesentlich verbessern, indem die Stäbe endseitig in den Erdboden eingebracht werden. In einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung sind die Stäbe frisch geschnittene, treibfähige Äste, die in der Erde Wurzeln ausbilden und nach einer gewissen Zeit anfangen zu treiben. Dadurch wird das Naturerlebnis noch verstärkt, da die Kinder den Wachstumsprozeß beobachten können.The anchorage of the hut can be improved significantly, by putting the rods into the ground be introduced. In a preferred embodiment According to the invention, the rods are freshly cut, viable branches that are rooted in the earth train and start to after a certain time float. This enhances the experience of nature, because the children are watching the growth process can.

Besonders bevorzugt sind Weidenäste, da die Triebe zur Verstärkung des Geflechts benutzt werden können und die Kinder dadurch an der stets unvollendeten Spielhütte weiterbauen können. Dies kann am besten durch eine unfertige Spielhütte erreicht werden, die sich bereits zum Spielen eignet, jedoch Möglichkeiten zur weiteren Gestaltung bietet.Willow branches are particularly preferred since the shoots can be used to reinforce the braid and the children on the always unfinished Can continue to build play hut. This can be best be reached through an unfinished play hut, which is already suitable for playing, however Offers opportunities for further design.

Im Ergebnis erhält man eine Spielhütte, die sofort bespielbar ist, Erfolgserlebnisse vermittelt und den natürlichen Wachstumsprozeß erfahrbar macht.As a result, you get a game hut that immediately is playable, communicates experiences of success and makes the natural growth process tangible.

Vorzugsweise besitzt die Spielhütte einen Eingang, und/oder Fenster, wodurch zusätzliche Spiel- und Klettermöglichkeiten eröffnet werden.The game hut preferably has an entrance, and / or window, creating additional play and Climbing opportunities will be opened.

Einen besonderen Reiz für die Kinder hat die Spielhütte, wenn sie oben vollständig oder nahezu geschlossen ist. Dazu wird in einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung das Weidengeflecht über die Stäbe hinaus fortgesetzt und zu einer Kuppel verflochten. Die dadurch entstehende Höhle wird von den Kindern besonders gern zum Spielen angenommen.The has a special attraction for the children Spielhütte when complete or near the top closed is. This is done in a preferred Design the wicker over the bars continued out and intertwined into a dome. The resulting cave is used by the children especially liked to play.

Aus praktischen Erwägungen sind die Stäbe mit ihrem dicken Ende nach unten in die Erde eingesetzt. Dadurch ergibt sich eine höhere Stabilität der Spielhütte. Außerdem kann das Geflecht nach oben hin verdichtet werden, wodurch ein kuppelförmiger Abschluß erleichtert wird.For practical reasons, the bars are with their thick end inserted down into the earth. Thereby the game hut is more stable. In addition, the braid can go up be compressed, creating a dome-shaped finish is facilitated.

Optisch besonders ansprechend und durch das Weidegeflecht leicht zu realisieren ist eine Spielhütte mit annäherungsweise runder Grundfläche. Dies wird dadurch erreicht, daß die Stäbe entlang eines Kreises in die Erde gesteckt werden. Bei einer ausreichenden Zahl von Stäben, vorzugsweise fünf oder sechs, ergibt sich der Eindruck einer runden Hütte.Visually appealing and thanks to the wicker a play hut is easy to implement with an approximately round base. this will thereby achieved that the bars along a circle to be stuck in the ground. With a sufficient Number of bars, preferably five or six, gives the impression of a round hut.

Stehen Merkmale wie der Sicht- oder Witterungsschutz im Vordergrund, wird eine einseitig offene Hütte vorgeschlagen, wobei sich die Gestalt im Extremfall im wesentlichen auf eine einzelne Wand beschränkt. Zweckmäßig sind insbesondere Hütten, die die Form eines Halbkugelabschnitts aufweisen, so daß der umschlossene Bereich auch nach oben abgeschlossen ist. Sie zeichnen sich durch eine gute Formstabilität, leichte Herstellbarkeit und eine ansprechende Erscheinung aus, und lassen sich etwa als Raumteiler oder Witterungsschutz einsetzen.Are features such as privacy or weather protection in the foreground, one is open on one side Hut suggested that the shape in extreme cases essentially limited to a single wall. Especially useful are huts that have the shape of a hemisphere section, so that the enclosed area is also closed at the top is. They are characterized by a good one Dimensional stability, easy to manufacture and one appealing appearance, and can be about use as a room divider or weather protection.

Die offene Seite, der Eingang oder ein Fenster der Hütte wird vorzugsweise von einem durchgehenden Rahmen umgeben, so daß sich die Formstabilität wesentlich erhöht. Der Rahmen besteht zweckmäßig aus Holz, bei hohen Belastungen, also insbesondere wenn er eine offene Seite der Hütte umschließt, aus Stahl. Damit läßt sich auch bei offenen Gestalten eine hohe Belastbarkeit erreichen.The open side, the entrance or a window of the Hut is preferred by a non-stop Surround the frame so that the dimensional stability is essential elevated. The frame expediently consists of Wood, with high loads, especially if it encloses an open side of the hut Stole. This means that even with open shapes achieve a high resilience.

Ferner wird vorgeschlagen, zwei oder mehrere Spielhütten bzw. -wände zu einer Gruppe zusammenzustellen. Auf diese Weise läßt sich der umschlossene Raum erweitern, ohne daß der Einsatz größerer und damit mechanisch instabilerer Hütten notwendig ist. Bei einseitig offenen Hütten wird ein verbesserter Abschluß eines abgegrenzten Raumes erreicht. Es ist vorteilhaft, jedoch nicht zwingend erforderlich, daß die Öffnungen in Richtungen aufeinander zu weisen. Beispielsweise läßt sich auf diese Weise aus zwei halbschaligen Elementen eine muschelartig geöffnete Höhle zusammenstellen.It is also proposed to have two or more play huts or walls to form a group. In this way, the enclosed one can Expand space without the use of larger and so that mechanically more unstable huts are necessary. With one-sided open huts, an improved one Completed a confined space. It is advantageous, but not absolutely necessary, that the openings face each other in directions. For example, in this way two half-shell elements one open like a shell Put the cave together.

Bevorzugt werden benachbarte Spielhütten miteinander durch an ihnen befestigte Elemente verbunden, etwa im Bereich des Eingangs bzw. einer offenen Seite. Als verbindende Elemente kommen alle Gegenstände in Betracht, die einen aus kindlicher Sicht tatsächlichen oder scheinbaren Abschluß darstellen, etwa Stäbe, Seile, Geflechte, Stoff- oder Folienbahnen, Decken, Platten, eine Überdachung oder beliebe Kombinationen dieser Elemente, z.B. strickleiterartig miteinander verbundene Leisten.Adjacent play huts with each other are preferred connected by elements attached to them, for example in the area of the entrance or an open one Page. All objects come as connecting elements considered one from a child's perspective represent actual or apparent completion, such as rods, ropes, braids, fabric or foil sheets, Blankets, slabs, a canopy or any Combinations of these elements, e.g. rope-like interconnected strips.

Auch im Fall einzelner Hütten bietet es sich ebenso wie bei Gruppen an, Eingangsbereiche bzw. die offene Seite mit einem Vordach zu versehen, z.B. aus Holzlamellen oder mit Segeltuch verbundenen Rundhölzern. Die Befestigung erfolgt etwa durch loses Auflegen und Abstützung durch Pfosten oder bei fester Verbindung mit der Hütte freitragend.It also works in the case of individual huts as with groups on, entrance areas or the open Can be provided with a canopy, e.g. out Wooden slats or logs connected with canvas. The attachment is done by loose Lay on and support by posts or by fixed Self-supporting connection to the hut.

Zum Schutz vor Regen ist es zweckmäßig, daß die Spielhütte und gegebenenfalls Vordächer und mehrere Hütten verbindende Elemente außenseitig, speziell im oberen Bereich, durch eine vorzugsweise lösbar befestigte, wasserdichte Hülle bedeckt ist.To protect against rain, it is advisable that the Playhouse and, if necessary, canopies and several Elements connecting huts on the outside, special in the upper area, preferably by a detachable fortified, waterproof cover is covered.

Das Naturerlebnis ist wesentlich zu steigern, wenn die Hütte außenseitig mit Kletterpflanzen bewachsen ist, wozu sich insbesondere Gemüse, etwa Bohnen oder Erbsen, die die Kinder nach der Reife ernten können, oder Blumen anbieten. Während die Pflanzen im Freien in den Erdboden einsetzbar sind, lassen sie sich im Inneren von Räumen auch in Blumentöpfe oder -kästen pflanzen.The experience of nature can be increased significantly if the hut is overgrown with climbing plants on the outside is what vegetables, such as beans, are for or peas that the children harvest after ripening can, or offer flowers. While the plants can be used outdoors in the ground they can also be found inside flower pots plant or boxes.

Das Spielerlebnis und mögliche Anwendungsbereiche der Hütte lassen sich erheblich erweitern, indem Möbelstücke in sie eingestellt werden. Zu diesem Zweck bieten sich beispielsweise Stühle, eine Bank oder ein Tisch sowie Kissen oder Polster an. Eine Möblierung ist speziell beim Einsatz als Rückzugsbereich oder Spielecke von Vorteil. Durch einen Sichtschutz vor dem Eingang bzw. der offenen Seite wird die Hütte auch zum Umkleiden nutzbar.The gaming experience and possible areas of application the hut can be expanded considerably by Furniture pieces can be set in it. To this The purpose is, for example, chairs, a bench or a table and pillows or upholstery. A Furniture is special when used as a retreat or play corner is an advantage. Through a Privacy screen in front of the entrance or the open side the hut can also be used for changing clothes.
