Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schubkastenauszugführung mit einer am Möbelkorpus festlegbaren Führungsschiene und einer am Schubkasten anbringbaren mittels Wälzkörpern geführten Laufschiene und mit einer Laufbahnen für die Wälzkörper aufweisenden Profilschiene.The invention relates to a drawer slide with a fixable on the furniture body guide rail and an attachable to the drawer guided by rolling rails and with a raceways for the rolling elements having rail.

Die in Frage kommenden Schubkastenauszugführungen sind in vielen Ausführungen bekannt. Die jeweils eingesetzte Ausführung richtet sich beispielsweise nach der Größe der Schubkästen und der auftretenden Belastung. In einer einfachsten Ausführung ist die Profilschiene und die Führungsschiene eine einstückig ausgebildete, im Querschnitt U-förmige Schiene. In diesem Falle enthält jede Schubkastenauszugführung eine Laufschiene. Die Profilschiene ist dann mit zwei oder drei Laufbahnen für Wälzkörper ausgestattet.The relevant drawer slide guides are known in many designs. The type used depends, for example, on the size of the drawers and the load occurring. In a simplest embodiment, the rail and the guide rail is an integrally formed, in cross-section U-shaped rail. In this case, each drawer slide contains a running rail. The rail is then equipped with two or three raceways for rolling elements.

Es sind jedoch auch Schubkastenauszugführungen mit einer separaten Profilschiene bekannt. Die Schubkastenauszugführung ist dann so ausgelegt, dass der Schubkasten vollständig aus dem Möbelkorpus herausgezogen werden kann. Bei einer solchen Ausführung sind beide Endbereiche der Profilschiene mit Laufbahnen ausgestattet. Die einem Ende zugeordneten Wälzkörper laufen dann beim Ausziehen oder Einfahren des Schubkastens in einem entsprechend gestalteten Endbereich der Führungsschiene. Die beiden die Laufbahnen aufweisenden Endbereiche der Profilschiene sind dann zueinander symmetrisch.However, drawer slide guides with a separate rail are also known. The drawer slide is then designed so that the drawer can be completely pulled out of the furniture body. In such an embodiment, both end portions of the rail are equipped with raceways. The one end associated rolling elements then run when pulling or retracting the drawer in a correspondingly shaped end portion of the guide rail. The two end faces of the rail having the raceways are then symmetrical to each other.

Nachteilig ist bei den in Rede stehenden Schubkastenauszugführungen die nicht ausreichende Seitenstabilität. Außerdem ist im Bereich der Laufflächen bei Belastung die elastische Verformung relativ hoch.The disadvantage of the drawer slide guides in question is insufficient lateral stability. In addition, in the area of the treads under load, the elastic deformation is relatively high.

Aus der EP 0 541 306 A1 ist eine Schubkastenauszugführung bekannt, bei der die Bereiche, die die Laufbahnen enthalten, in einer zur Wand des Möbelkorpus beabstandeten Sytnmetrieebene symmetrisch zueinander ausgebildet sind. Aus diesem Grunde enthält der jeweilige Bereich der Profilschiene jeweils nur zwei Laufbahnen. Die Endbereiche der beiden Laufbahnen sind umgefaltet und liegen an den Schultern der zentralen Wand an. Die Laufbahnen liegen darüber hinaus auch auf gleicher Höhe.A drawer slide is known from EP 0 541 306 A1, in which the areas which contain the raceways are formed symmetrically to one another in a plane of symmetry spaced apart from the wall of the furniture body. For this reason, the respective area of the rail contains only two raceways. The end portions of the two raceways are folded over and abut the shoulders of the central wall. The tracks are also at the same height.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Schubkastenauszugführung der eingangs näher beschriebenen Art in konstruktiv einfacher Weise so auszubilden, dass die Seitenstabilität erhöht und die elastische Verformbarkeit im Bereich der Laufflächen bei Belastung herabgesetzt wird.The invention has the object of providing a drawer slide of the type described in detail in a structurally simple manner so that the lateral stability increases and the elastic deformability is reduced in the area of the treads under load.

Die gestellte Aufgabe wird gelöst indem die Profilschiene im Bereich der einer Laufschiene zugeordneten Laufbahnen eine nach außen geöffnete Nut aufweist, dass ein die Nut überragender Endsteg der Profilschiene zurückgebogen ist und sich in die Nut erstreckt, und dass dieser Bereich jeder Profilschiene in Bezug auf die beiden mittig zwischen den Wälzkörpern sowie senkrecht zu deren gedachten Verbindungsachsen stehenden Mittelachsen asymmetrisch ausgebildet ist.The object is achieved by the rail in the region of a track associated raceways has an outwardly open groove, that a groove projecting end web of the rail is bent back and extends into the groove, and that this area each rail with respect to the two is formed centrally between the rolling elements and perpendicular to their imaginary connecting axes center lines asymmetric.

Die Profilschiene wird üblicherweise durch Abkanten eines Blechstreifens hergestellt. Bei den bisher bekannten Schubkastenauszugführungen ist jeder die Laufbahnen aufweisende Bereich nach Art eines Hohlkörpers gestaltet. Nunmehr wird durch den in die Nut eingebogenen Endsteg sinngemäß ein als massiv anzusehendes Bauteil gebildet, so dass die Elastizität bei Belastung wesentlich herabgesetzt wird. Dadurch wird auch die Seitenstabilität der Schubkastenauszugführung erhöht. Je nach Gestaltung der Schubkastenauszugführung ist entweder die Nut in Richtung zur Schubkastenmitte oder in Richtung zur Seitenwand des Möbelkorpus offen, an dem die Führungsschiene befestigt ist Da nunmehr der die Laufflächen aufweisende Bereiche der Profilschiene in Bezug auf beide mittig und zwischen den Wälzkörpern sowie senkrecht zu deren Verbindungsachsen stehenden Mittelachsen asymmetrisch ausgebildet ist, wird die Seitenstabilität erhöht.The rail is usually made by bending a metal strip. In the drawer slide guides known hitherto, each area having the raceways is designed in the manner of a hollow body. Now, by virtue of the end web bent into the groove, a component which is to be regarded as solid is formed mutatis mutandis, so that the elasticity is substantially reduced under load. As a result, the lateral stability of the drawer slide is increased. Depending on the design of the drawer slide either the groove in the direction of the drawer center or towards the side wall of the furniture body is open to which the guide rail is attached Since now the treads having areas of the rail with respect to both centrally and between The rolling elements and perpendicular to their axes connecting axes centered asymmetrically, the lateral stability is increased.

Die Wirkung des umgebogenen Endsteges in Verbindung mit der Nut wird noch weiter erhöht, wenn das freie Ende des gebogenen Endsteges sich an mindestens einer Nutbegrenzungswand abstützt. Dadurch wird noch verhindert, dass der umgebogene Endsteg federt.The effect of the bent end web in connection with the groove is further increased when the free end of the curved end web is supported on at least one Nutbegrenzungswand. This still prevents the bent Endsteg springs.

Es ist außerdem besonders vorteilhaft, wenn der Endsteg um einen Winkel von ca. 180° zurückgebogen ist. Dadurch liegen zumindest teilweise die Flächen des Endsteges und des sich daran anschließenden Bereiches der Profilschiene flächig aneinander. Zweckmäßigerweise stützt sich jedoch das freie Ende des zurückgebogenen Endsteges an einer seitlichen und einer dazu im Winkel stehenden Nutbegrenzungswand ab.It is also particularly advantageous if the Endsteg is bent back by an angle of about 180 °. As a result, at least partially, the surfaces of the end web and of the adjoining region of the profile rail lie flat against one another. Conveniently, however, the free end of the bent-back end web is supported on a lateral and an angular Nutbegrenzungswand.

Im Hinblick auf die einwirkenden Kräfte ist es vorteilhaft, wenn die Mittelachse der Nut unter einem Winkel von ca. 45° zur Seitenwand des Möbelkorpus steht. Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Schubkastenauszugführung bietet sich aufgrund der Gestaltung der Profilschiene an, dass die Laufschiene bzw. die Laufschienen im Querschnitt C-förmig ausgebildet sind und dass die Profilschiene im Endbereich oder in den Endbereichen jeweils drei Laufflächen aufweisen. Die gedachten Verbindungen der Wälzkörper beschreiben dann ein gleichschenklig rechtwinkliges Dreieck. Es ist dann wiederum für die Festlegung der Führungsschiene und der Laufschiene am Schubkasten vorteilhaft, wenn die Mittelachse jeder Nut senkrecht oder annähernd senkrecht zu der gedachten Verbindung von zwei einander gegenüberliegenden Wälzkörpern steht.With regard to the acting forces, it is advantageous if the central axis of the groove is at an angle of approximately 45 ° to the side wall of the furniture body. In the case of the drawer slide according to the invention, owing to the design of the profile rail, it is appropriate for the running rail or rails to be C-shaped in cross-section and for the rail to have three running surfaces in the end region or in the end regions. The imaginary connections of the rolling elements then describe an isosceles right-angled triangle. It is then in turn for the determination of the guide rail and the running rail on the drawer advantageous if the center axis of each groove is perpendicular or approximately perpendicular to the imaginary connection of two opposing rolling elements.

Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Schubkastenauszugführung hat es sich als vorteilhaft im Hinblick auf die Seitenkräfte herausgestellt, wenn der die Laufflächen aufweisende Bereich der Profilschiene in Bezug auf beide mittig und zwischen den Wälzkörpern sowie senkrecht zu deren gedachten Verbindungsachsen stehenden Mittelachsen asymmetrisch ausgebildet ist.In the drawer slide according to the invention, it has been found to be advantageous in terms of lateral forces when the running surfaces having area of the rail is formed asymmetrically with respect to both centrally and between the rolling elements and perpendicular to their imaginary connecting axes center axes.

Anhand der beiliegenden Zeichnungen wird die Erfindung noch näher erläutert.Reference to the accompanying drawings, the invention will be explained in more detail.

a drawer slide according to the invention in the form of a single extract,
FIG. 2
an inventive drawer slide in the form of a full extension,
FIG. 3
one of the figure 1 corresponding embodiment, but with a rail, which has only two treads.

Aus Gründen der vereinfachten Darstellung ist die erfindungsgemäße Schubkastenauszugführung 10 nur als Teilansicht dargestellt. Es wird jeweils nur eine Schubkastenauszugführung 10 für eine Seite eines andeutungsweise dargestellten Schubkastens 11 dargestellt. Für die gegenüberliegende Seite des Schubkastens 11 wird eine Auszugführung verwendet, die spiegelbildlich angeordnet ist.For reasons of simplified illustration, the drawer slide 10 according to the invention is shown only as a partial view. In each case, only one drawer slide-out guide 10 is shown for one side of a drawer 11 which is indicated. For the opposite side of the drawer 11, an extension guide is used, which is arranged in mirror image.

Die Schubkastenauszugführung 10 nach der Figur 1 besteht im wesentlichen aus einer Führungsschiene 12, einer Laufschiene 13, einer mit drei Laufbahnen ausgestatteten Profilschiene 14 für Wälzkörper 15 in Form von Kugeln.The drawer slide 10 according to the figure 1 consists essentially of a guide rail 12, a guide rail 13, a rail provided with three tracks rail 14 for rolling elements 15 in the form of balls.

Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel nach der Figur 1 ist die Führungsschiene 12 und die Profilschiene 14 einstückig ausgebildet, da es sich um einen sogenannten Einzelauszug handelt, bei dem der Schubkasten 11 nicht vollständig aus dem Möbelkorpus herausgezogen werden kann. Die Führungsschiene 12 ist winkelfögmig ausgebildet, so daß sie an einer Seitenwand 16 des Möbelkorpus angeschraubt werden kann.In the illustrated embodiment of Figure 1, the guide rail 12 and the rail 14 is integrally formed, since it is a so-called Single drawer acts, in which the drawer 11 can not be completely pulled out of the furniture body. The guide rail 12 is formed winkelfögmig so that it can be screwed to a side wall 16 of the furniture body.

Die Schubkastenauszugführung 10 nach der Figur 2 ist ein Vollauszug, wobei der wesentliche Unterschied darin besteht, daß er zwei Laufschienen 13 und 17 aufweist. Die untere, nicht am Schubkasten 11 angeschraubte Laufschiene 17 ist wiederum mit der Führungsschiene 12 einstückig. Jeder Endbereich der Profilschiene 14 ist ebenfalls mit drei Laufbahnen für die Wälzkörper 15 ausgestattet. Wie die Figur 2 zeigt, sind jedoch die beiden Endbereiche der Profilschiene 14, die auch als Mittelschiene bezeichnet werden kann, nicht symmetrisch.The drawer slide 10 of Figure 2 is a full extension, the main difference is that it has two rails 13 and 17. The lower, not bolted to the drawer 11 running rail 17 is in turn integral with the guide rail 12. Each end region of the rail 14 is also equipped with three raceways for the rolling elements 15. As FIG. 2 shows, however, the two end regions of the profile rail 14, which may also be referred to as the center rail, are not symmetrical.

Bei der Ausführung nach der Figur 3 ist eine der Figur 1 entsprechende Schubkastenauszugführung 10 dargestellt, jedoch weist die Profilschiene 14 nur zwei einander gegenüberliegende Laufbahnen für die Wälzkörper 15 auf. Auch bei dieser Ausführung ist die Führungsschiene 12 mit der mittleren Profilschiene 14 ein einstückiges Bauteil.In the embodiment according to FIG. 3, a drawer slide-out guide 10 corresponding to FIG. 1 is shown, however, the guide rail 14 has only two opposing raceways for the rolling elements 15. Also in this embodiment, the guide rail 12 with the central rail 14 is a one-piece component.

Bei allen drei Ausführungen ist jede Profilschiene 14 im Bereich der Laufbahnen mit einer nach außen geöffneten Nut 18 versehen. Ebenfalls ist bei allen Ausführungen ein Endsteg 14a der Profilschiene um einen Winkel von ca. 180° abgebogen, so daß er in die Nut 18 hineinragt.In all three embodiments, each rail 14 is provided in the region of the raceways with an outwardly open groove 18. Also, in all embodiments, an end web 14a of the rail is bent at an angle of about 180 °, so that it projects into the groove 18.

Bei allen Ausführungen stützt sich der Endsteg 14a an zwei Nutbegrenzungswänden ab. Bei den Ausführungen nach den Figuren 1 und 2 stützt er sich an einer seitlichen Nutbegrenzungswand und an der mittleren Nutbegrenzungswand ab, während er bei der Ausführung nach der Figur 3 an zwei Stellen der seitlichen Nutbegrenzungswände anliegt.In all versions, the end web 14a is supported on two Nutbegrenzungswänden. In the embodiments according to Figures 1 and 2, it is supported on a lateral Nutbegrenzungswand and on the central Nutbegrenzungswand, while it rests in the embodiment of Figure 3 at two points of the lateral Nutbegrenzungswände.

Die Figuren zeigen, daß je nach Gestaltung der Schubkastenauszugführung 10 die Nut zu der Seitenwand 16 hin offen ist, oder zu der abgewandten Seite hin.The figures show that, depending on the design of the drawer slide 10, the groove is open towards the side wall 16, or towards the opposite side.

Bei den Ausführungen nach den Figuren 1-3 ist jede Laufschiene 13 bzw. 17 C-förmig gestaltet. Bei der Ausführung nach der Figur 3 mit zwei Laufflächen der Profilschiene 14 sind die freien Enden bogenförmig gestaltet.In the embodiments according to Figures 1-3 each rail 13 and 17 C-shaped design. In the embodiment of Figure 3 with two running surfaces of the rail 14, the free ends are designed arcuate.

Bei allen Ausführungen besteht die Mittellängsachse der Nut 18 senkrecht oder im wesentlichen senkrecht zu der gedachten Verbindungslinie von zwei einander gegenüberliegenden Wälzkörpern 15. Diese Wälzkörper sind nach den Ausführungen nach den Figuren 1 und 2 die, die den Rändern der Laufschienen 13 bzw. 17 zugeordnet sind. Der die Laufbahnen aufweisende Bereich der Profilschienen 14 ist nicht symmetrisch ausgebildet. Dies gilt auch für die Ausführung nach der Figur 3, wenn man die gedachte Verbindung zwischen den Wälzkörpern 15 als Bezugsachse wählt.In all embodiments, the central longitudinal axis of the groove 18 is perpendicular or substantially perpendicular to the imaginary connecting line of two opposing rolling elements 15. These rolling elements are according to the statements according to Figures 1 and 2, which are associated with the edges of the rails 13 and 17, respectively. The raceways having region of the rails 14 is not symmetrical. This also applies to the embodiment of Figure 3, if one chooses the imaginary connection between the rolling elements 15 as a reference axis.

Auch bei den Ausführungen nach den Figuren 1 und 2 ist dieser Bereich der Laufschiene 14 zu keiner von zwei rechtwinklig zueinander stehenden Bezugsachsen symmetrisch. Diese Bezugsachsen sind normalerweise immer die mittig zwischen den Wälzkörpern 15 verlaufenden Achsen, die außerdem rechtwinklig zu den gedachten Verbindungen der Wälzkörper 15 stehen.Also in the embodiments of Figures 1 and 2, this area of the track rail 14 is symmetrical to none of two mutually perpendicular reference axes. These reference axes are normally always the center between the rolling elements 15 extending axes, which are also perpendicular to the imaginary joints of the rolling elements 15.

Die Erfindung ist demzufolge nicht auf die dargestellten Ausführungen beschränkt. Wesentlich ist, daß der die Laufbahnen für die Wälzkörper 15 aufweisende Bereich der mittleren Profilschiene 14 nicht als Hohlkörper ausgebildet ist und den umgebogenen Endsteg 14a aufweist.The invention is therefore not limited to the illustrated embodiments. It is essential that the region of the central rail 14 having the raceways for the rolling elements 15 is not formed as a hollow body and has the bent end web 14a.
