Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Gestell, insbesondere zur Befestigung von Sanitärapparaten, mit wenigstens einer senkrechten Tragstütze, in die ein teleskopisch höhenverstellbarer und mit der Tragstütze verbundener Fuss eingesetzt ist.The invention relates to a frame, in particular for fastening sanitary appliances, with at least one vertical support, into which a telescopically height-adjustable foot connected to the support is inserted.

Ein Gestell dieser Art ist im Stand der Technik beispielsweise durch die DE-A-26 37 749 bekannt geworden. Gestelle dieser Art werden seit langem zur Montage von Sanitärapparaten vor einer Gebäudewand oder in einer Leichtbauwand verwendet. Bei der Vorwandmontage wird das Gestell bezüglich des Gebäudebodens und der Wand ausgerichtet und an der Wand abgestützt und schliesslich an dieser angeschraubt. Das Gestell muss somit in seiner Höhe und Tiefe genau eingestellt werden, was insbesondere bei der Montage eines Wasserklosetts oder Bidets selbstverständlich wesentlich ist. Beim genannten Stand der Technik wird die Höhe durch ein teleskopisches Verstellen von zwei Tragfüssen eingestellt. Hierbei können Bodenunebenheiten ausgeglichen werden. Die eingestellten Tiefen der Tragfüsse werden mit Klemmschrauben fixiert. In der Praxis ist diese Einstellung insbesondere bei unebenen Fussböden und bei der Einzelmontage, bei welcher ohne Wandschiene montiert wird, jedoch sehr aufwendig und die Füsse müssen in der Regel mehrmals gelöst, verstellt und wieder fixiert werden.A frame of this type is known in the prior art, for example from DE-A-26 37 749. Frames of this type have long been used to install sanitary appliances in front of a building wall or in a lightweight wall. During pre-wall installation, the frame is aligned with the building floor and the wall and supported on the wall and finally screwed onto it. The height and depth of the frame must therefore be adjusted precisely, which is of course essential, especially when installing a water closet or bidet. In the prior art mentioned, the height is adjusted by telescopically adjusting two support feet. Unevenness in the floor can be compensated for here. The set depths of the support feet are fixed with clamping screws. In practice, this setting is Especially on uneven floors and for single installation, in which installation is carried out without a wall rail, but very complex and the feet usually have to be loosened, adjusted and fixed again several times.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Gestell der genannten Gattung zu schaffen, das sich insbesondere für die Einzelmontage von Sanitärapparaten, beispielsweise Wasserklosetts eignet und bei dem die Montage einfacher ist.The invention has for its object to provide a frame of the type mentioned, which is particularly suitable for the individual assembly of sanitary appliances, such as water closets and in which the assembly is easier.

Das erfindungsgemässe Gestell ist gekennzeichnet durch ein am Fuss selbsthaltendes und höhenverstellbares Justierorgan, an dem die Tragstütze höhenjustierbar abgestützt ist. Beim erfindungsgemässen Gestell kann das Justierorgan am Fuss in einer groben Voreinstellung fixiert werden. Nach dem Einsetzen des Fusses ist die Tragstütze am Justierorgan abgestützt und kann nun zur genauen Einrichtung höhenjustiert werden. Wesentlich ist, dass beim Höhenjustieren die Tragstütze immer abgestützt ist und somit nicht jedesmal gelöst werden muss. Dies ermöglicht eine besonders feine Höheneinstellung. Die Montagevereinfachung ist dann besonders zeitsparend, wenn am Gestell zwei oder sogar mehr Tragfüsse vorhanden sind und justiert werden müssen.The frame according to the invention is characterized by an adjusting member which is self-retaining and height-adjustable on the foot and on which the support is supported in a height-adjustable manner. In the frame according to the invention, the adjustment member can be fixed to the foot in a rough presetting. After inserting the foot, the support is supported on the adjustment element and can now be adjusted in height for precise setup. It is essential that the height of the support is always supported and therefore does not have to be released every time. This enables a particularly fine height adjustment. The simplification of assembly is particularly time-saving if two or even more support feet are present on the frame and have to be adjusted.

Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist das Justierorgan in vorbestimmten Rastpositionen am Fuss befestigbar. In Verbindung mit einer geeigneten Markierung kann dann eine grobe Voreinstellung besonders einfach gefunden und festgelegt werden. Die Rastvorrichtung ist gemäss einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung eine selbsthaltende Rastvorrichtung. Dies ermöglicht eine Ausführung, bei welcher die Voreinstellung ohne Werkzeuge möglich ist.According to a development of the invention, the adjusting member can be attached to the foot in predetermined locking positions. In conjunction with a suitable marking, a rough presetting can then be found and defined particularly easily. According to a development of the invention, the latching device is a self-holding latching device. This enables an execution in which the presetting is possible without tools.

Ist die Tragstütze gemäss einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung mittels eines Gewindes relativ zum Fuss höhenjustierbar, so ist eine besonders genaue Feineinstellung möglich.If, according to a development of the invention, the support bracket can be adjusted in height relative to the foot by means of a thread, a particularly precise fine adjustment is possible.

Weitere vorteilhafte Merkmale ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Patentansprüchen, der nachfolgenden Beschreibung sowie der Zeichnung.Further advantageous features result from the dependent claims, the following description and the drawing.

Die Figur 1 zeigt ein Montagegestell 1, das einen Rahmen 2 mit zwei vertikalen und parallelen Tragstützen 3 sowie zwei Eckabstützungen 14 aufweist. An den Tragstützen 3 ist eine Haltevorrichtung 5 befestigt, beispielsweise angeschweisst, an der beispielsweise eine WC-Schüssel befestigt werden kann und die dazu eine Rohrschelle 7 zur Fixierung des Ablaufs aufweist. Über der Haltevorrichtung 5 ist am Rahmen 2 ein Unterputzspülkasten 8 befestigt.FIG. 1 shows an assembly frame 1 which has a frame 2 with two vertical and parallel support supports 3 and two corner supports 14. A holding device 5 is fastened, for example welded, to the support supports 3, to which, for example, a toilet bowl can be fastened and which has a pipe clamp 7 for fixing the drain. A concealed cistern 8 is attached to the frame 2 above the holding device 5.

In jede Tragstütze 3 ist von unten ein Fuss 4 teleskopisch verstellbar eingesetzt. Jeder Fuss 4 ist mit einer Fussplatte 9 versehen und an dieser an einem Gebäudeboden 10, beispielsweise mittels einer geeigneten Schraube fixiert. Jeder Fuss weist ein im Querschnitt C-förmiges Profilrohr 26 auf, das über seine gesamte Länge mit einem Schlitz 12 versehen ist. Neben dem Schlitz 12 sind zwei Reihen von Rastöffnungen 11 eingearbeitet. In das Profilrohr 26 ist ein Justierorgan 15 eingesetzt, das ein Justierelement 22 aufweist, das mittels einer Blattfeder 21 mit einem Rastelement 16 fest verbunden ist. Wie die Figur 2 zeigt, befindet sich das Rastelement 16 und das Justierelement 22 sowie die Blattfeder 21 innerhalb des Hohlprofils 26.A foot 4 is telescopically adjustable from below into each support 3. Each foot 4 is provided with a foot plate 9 and on this on a building floor 10, for example fixed by means of a suitable screw. Each foot has a profile tube 26 with a C-shaped cross section, which is provided with a slot 12 over its entire length. In addition to the slot 12, two rows of locking openings 11 are incorporated. In the profile tube 26, an adjusting member 15 is inserted, which has an adjusting element 22 which is fixedly connected to a locking element 16 by means of a leaf spring 21. As FIG. 2 shows, the locking element 16 and the adjusting element 22 and the leaf spring 21 are located within the hollow profile 26.

Am Rastelement 16 sind zwei Rastnocken 17 sowie ein Gewindestift 18 fest angebracht. Der Gewindestift 18 durchgreift den Schlitz 12 des Fusses 4 sowie einen Längsschlitz 27 der Tragstütze 3. Auf das vorragende Ende des Gewindestiftes 18 ist eine Klemmmutter 19 aufgeschraubt. Die Blattfeder 21 ist mit zwei Befestigungsschrauben 20 am Rastelement 16 befestigt.On the locking element 16, two locking cams 17 and a threaded pin 18 are fixedly attached. The set screw 18 passes through the slot 12 of the foot 4 and a longitudinal slot 27 of the support bracket 3. A clamping nut 19 is screwed onto the protruding end of the set screw 18. The leaf spring 21 is fastened to the locking element 16 with two fastening screws 20.

Die Blattfeder 21 ist am unteren Ende mittels einer Befestigungsschraube 28 am Justierelement 22 befestigt und an diesem abgestützt. Die Blattfeder 21 hält das Justierelement 22 in der in Figur 2 gezeigten Position, bei welcher die Rastnocken 17 mit zwei gegenüberliegenden Öffnungen 11 in Eingriff sind. Dieser Eingriff kann gegen die rückwirkende Kraft der Blattfeder 21 gelöst werden, indem das Rastelement 16 an der Klemmmutter 19 in Richtung des Pfeils 29 ausgelenkt wird. Bei gelöster Rastverbindung kann das Justierorgan 15 beliebig in Längsrichtung des Fusses 4 verschoben und durch Loslassen der Klemmmutter 19 in einer gewünschten Höhenposition neu verrastet und damit in der Höhe festgelegt werden. Durch Festziehen der Klemmmutter 19 lässt sich die eingestellte Rastung sichern.The leaf spring 21 is fastened at the lower end by means of a fastening screw 28 to the adjusting element 22 and is supported thereon. The leaf spring 21 holds the adjusting element 22 in the position shown in FIG. 2, in which the latching cams 17 are in engagement with two opposite openings 11. This engagement can be released against the retroactive force of the leaf spring 21 by deflecting the locking element 16 on the clamping nut 19 in the direction of the arrow 29. When the latching connection is released, the adjusting member 15 can be moved as desired in the longitudinal direction of the foot 4 and can be re-locked in a desired height position by releasing the clamping nut 19 and can thus be fixed in height. The set detent can be secured by tightening the clamping nut 19.

Das Justierorgan 15 ist über die Blattfeder 21 fest mit dem Rastelement 16 verbunden. An der Rückseite des Elements 15 sind zwei Ansätze 25 angebracht, die das Element 15 bei der Montage im Hohlprofil 26 führen und abstützen.The adjusting member 15 is fixedly connected to the locking element 16 via the leaf spring 21. At the back of element 15 are two approaches 25 attached, which guide and support the element 15 during assembly in the hollow profile 26.

Am Justierorgan 15 ist etwa mittig ein Arm 23 fest angebracht, der sich durch die Schlitze 12 und 27 hindurch nach aussen erstreckt und an einem freien Ende eine durchgehende Gewindebohrung 24 zur Aufnahme einer Justierschraube 30 aufweist. Wie die Figur 2 zeigt, greift die Justierschraube 30 am oberen Ende durch eine Bohrung 33 einer Traverse 6 der Haltevorrichtung 5 hindurch und ist an dieser Traverse 6 mittels einer sogenannten Stopmutter 32 drehbar gelagert. Die Traverse 6 ist beidseitig mit Schweissungen 13 an den Tragstützen 3 befestigt. Wird in der Anordnung gemäss Figur 2 die Justiermutter 30 gedreht, so wird sie je nach Drehrichtung nach unten oder nach oben bewegt und verschiebt entsprechend die Fussstütze 3 und die Tragstütze 4 relativ zueinander. Der Verstellweg der Justierschraube 30 ist wenigstens so gross wie der Abstand zwischen zwei benachbarten Rastöffnungen 11, der vorzugsweise etwa 10 mm beträgt. Damit kann innerhalb des Rastbereiches der Öffnungen 11 jede Position zur Verstellung der Justierschraube 30 genau eingestellt werden. Vorgesehen ist, dass durch die Rastöffnungen 11 und die entsprechende Positionierung des Rastelementes 16 am Fuss 4 eine grobe Voreinstellung und ausgehend von dieser Einstellung mittels der Justierschraube 30 die Feineinstellung vorgenommen wird. Die Rastverbindung zwischen dem Element 16 und dem Fuss 4 kann wie oben erläutert jederzeit gelöst und verstellt werden. Ist der Rahmen 2 justiert, so werden die beiden Klemmmuttern 19 festgezogen.An arm 23, which extends through the slots 12 and 27 to the outside and has a continuous threaded bore 24 for receiving an adjusting screw 30 at a free end, is firmly attached to the adjusting member 15 approximately in the center. As FIG. 2 shows, the adjusting screw 30 reaches through a bore 33 of a cross member 6 of the holding device 5 at the upper end and is rotatably mounted on this cross member 6 by means of a so-called stop nut 32. The cross member 6 is fastened on both sides with weldings 13 to the support supports 3. If the adjusting nut 30 is rotated in the arrangement according to FIG. 2, it is moved upwards or downwards depending on the direction of rotation and correspondingly displaces the footrest 3 and the support 4 relative to one another. The adjustment path of the adjusting screw 30 is at least as large as the distance between two adjacent locking openings 11, which is preferably about 10 mm. This means that each position for adjusting the adjusting screw 30 can be set precisely within the latching area of the openings 11. It is provided that the locking openings 11 and the corresponding positioning of the locking element 16 on the base 4 make a rough presetting and, starting from this setting, the fine adjustment is carried out by means of the adjusting screw 30. The locking connection between the element 16 and the foot 4 can be released and adjusted at any time, as explained above. If the frame 2 is adjusted, the two clamping nuts 19 are tightened.

Die Grobeinstellung der Füsse 4 ohne Werkzeug und die anschliessende Feineinstellung bei bereits abgestütztem Rahmen 2 gewährleisten die obengenannte einfachere Montage. Die Traverse 6 ist nicht zwingend, da diese durch einen einfachen Ansatz an den Tragstützen 3 ersetzt sein kann. Ebenfalls könnte die Rastverbindung durch eine ähnliche andere Verbindung oder sogar durch eine stufenlose Klemmverbindung ersetzt werden. Diese Verbindung kann auch unterhalb der Justierschraube 30 angeordnet werden. Denkbar ist schliesslich auch eine Ausführung, bei welcher der Fuss 4 und die Tragstütze 3 vertauscht sind. Wesentlich ist die relative Bewegung zwischen den beiden Teilen.The rough adjustment of the feet 4 without tools and the subsequent fine adjustment with the frame 2 already supported ensure the above-mentioned simpler assembly. The cross member 6 is not mandatory, since this can be replaced by a simple approach to the support supports 3. The locking connection could also be made by a similar other Connection or even be replaced by a stepless clamp connection. This connection can also be arranged below the adjusting screw 30. Finally, an embodiment is also conceivable in which the foot 4 and the support 3 are interchanged. The relative movement between the two parts is essential.
