Definitions

  • the invention relates to a crank rod for awnings according to the preamble of Claim 1 and an eyelet for such crank rods.
  • the invention is in any case implemented if that of The force from the crank rod is essentially fully transmitted to the eyelet can be, regardless of the working angle includes the axis of rotation of the eyelet with the axis of the crank rod.
  • the thickening and the areas ensure that there is no displacement the lot comes inside the eyelet. Rather, it is a type of Cardan joint, where the thickening on the inner surfaces with a Roll or roll off the degree of freedom without moving in the direction of the lot axis to be moved.
  • a particularly useful embodiment provides that the thickening with Distance to each other and on opposite sides of the eyelet. Furthermore, it is expedient if the working surfaces of the thickened areas Shape of the work surfaces of the eyelet are matched. As part of this The inventive concept, it is particularly useful if the each other complementary working surfaces of the thickening and the eyelets are trained to each other. Due to the positive and positive engagement between the work surfaces and the surfaces do not slip Thickening inside the eyelet. The thickenings are particularly in the guided groove-like surfaces.
  • a particularly useful embodiment of the invention provides that the Thickenings are formed in the form of spherical sections, it With regard to minimal friction, it is advantageous if the thickenings on the Batches are rotatably mounted.
  • 1 to 3 is a crank rod 10 with a around its longitudinal axis 12 rotatable and transverse to the longitudinal axis 12 extending portion 16 to Operating an eyelet 30 shown.
  • the opening 32 of the eyelet 30 has one circular inner contour and has two approximately frusto-conical, coaxial arranged to each other and over their mutually facing ends in the Common opening 32 opening rotationally symmetrical surfaces 36.
  • the a portion 16 having a thickened portion 22 can be inserted into the opening 32.
  • the Batch 16 also has a second thickening 20, the thickening 20 and 22 can cooperate with one of the surfaces 36, which is shown in FIG. 2 can be seen.
  • the thickenings 20 and 22 are at a distance d4 from one another arranged, the working surfaces 26 and 28 of the thickenings 20 and 22 on the shape of the surfaces 36 are coordinated. This distance d4 can if necessary be kept very low, so that between the thickenings 20 and 22 only a gap is formed which has the shape of a double rocker in cross section having.
  • the thickenings can be chamfered.
  • the facing each other Batches of work surfaces 26, 28 and surfaces 36 are complementary trained to each other.
  • the Work surfaces 26 and 28 are convex and the surfaces 36 are concave, which is a simple and quick production of the thickening and the eyelet e.g. by Pouring or spraying enables.
  • the thickenings 20 and 22 are in the form of Ball sections formed, the outer diameter of the ball sections is slightly smaller than the inner diameter d1 of the eyelet 30.
  • the thickening 20, 22 are also arranged symmetrically with respect to the axis 12, so that optimal transmission of forces from the crank rod 10 to the eyelet 30 take place can.
  • the figures show that the thickenings 20 and 22nd are integrally formed with the lot 16, and in general also could be rotatably supported about the longitudinal axis 24 of the lot.
  • the axis of rotation 8 the eye can form an angle with the axis of rotation 12 of up to 45 degrees is.
  • the eyelet 16 is a symmetrical body with respect to its axis of rotation 8 circular opening 32.
  • the surfaces 36 are curved inward and taper towards opening 32. In terms of geometry, these surfaces are 36 Shell surfaces of a spherical truncated cone, the surface lines of which are curved are.
  • the base surfaces 33 of this truncated cone face away from one another.
  • the central section 34 of the section 16 is circular in cross section and crossed the opening 32 in the middle.
  • the lot 16 is with the crank rod 10 via a arcuate section 14 and the end piece 18 connected.
  • the outer diameter d3 is approximately like this Large as the inner diameter dl of the eyelet, with the diameter d2 clearly is smaller than the inner diameter dl.
  • the length d5 of the opening 32 in the direction the lot 16 is significantly smaller than the length d4 of the cylindrical section 34, so that the lot 16 in the opening 32 can be inclined so that the in Contact standing surfaces work together positively, what 2 can be seen in particular.
  • the axis 24 of the lot 16 runs perpendicular to the axis 12 of the crank rod 10. Generally, these two Axes 12 and 24 also include a larger or smaller angle.
  • FIG. 5 to 7 show that the central portion 34 is cranked and its elevation 31 'or depression 31 is formed such that the section 34 in the opening 32 can be hung.
  • the thickenings 20 and 22 are in their cross section is elliptical, which can be seen in particular in FIG. 5.
  • the opening 25 serves for a screw, not shown, and the section 13 has a central bore for receiving the crank rod end piece.
  • the peculiarity of the eyelet 30 shown in FIGS. 8 to 10 is, inter alia, in this, that the inner diameter dl in the relaxed state of the eyelet is smaller than that Outside diameter of the thickening 22.
  • the actual passage of the opening 32 is designed so that it is provided with elastic legs 5 and 7, which in Can be bent in the direction of the groove 9.
  • the advantage of this measure is in that the thickening 22 through the opening 32 with slight Resistance can be pushed through and the crank rod comes off the eyelet 30 can not solve by itself. Because there is at least one such great force required, which is sufficient to bend the legs 5 and 7. Furthermore is too recognize that a slot 3 is formed between the legs 5 and 7, the allows a smooth bending of the legs 5, 7.
  • the eyelet 30 can be general a molded and made of impact-resistant plastic part, the one has axial recess 11 into which the end piece of a shaft is not closer shown transmission can be inserted and connected by means of a pin 1.
