Description

Aufklappbarer Rahmen zur Aufnahme von Plakaten oder dergleichen Hinged frame for holding posters or the like
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Rahmen zur Aufnahme von Plakaten oder dgl . mit einem Grundrahmen, an dessen Rändern Frontelemente befestigt sind, die jeweils über ein Gelenk mit dem Grundrahmen verbunden sind und einzeln aus der Rahmenfläche herausklappbar sind, wobei jedes der Gelenke eine Gelenkschale und einen in die Gelenkschale einsetzbaren Gelenkbolzen aufweist.The invention relates to a frame for receiving posters or the like. with a base frame, at the edges of which front elements are fastened, each of which is connected to the base frame via a joint and can be individually folded out of the frame surface, each of the joints having a joint shell and a joint pin which can be inserted into the joint shell.
Ein derartiger Rahmen ist beispielsweise aus der DE-OS 31 32 521 bekannt. Die Frontelemente dieses Rahmens sind innenseitig mit einer Längsnut versehen, in die ein Rand einer Blattfeder eingreift, deren anderer Rand in eine Auskehlung des Grundrahmens hineinrag . Über die Länge des Frontelementes sind mehrere Blattfedern verteilt angeordnet. Bei Verschwenkung des Frontelementes wird die leicht gekrümmte Blattfeder über ihren Totpunkt gekippt, so daß sie das Frontelement sowohl in geschlossener Stellung als auch in ausgeklappter Stellung stabil festhält.Such a frame is known for example from DE-OS 31 32 521. The front elements of this frame are provided on the inside with a longitudinal groove into which an edge of a leaf spring engages, the other edge of which protrudes into a groove in the base frame. Several leaf springs are distributed over the length of the front element. When the front element is pivoted, the slightly curved leaf spring is tilted past its dead center, so that it holds the front element in a stable manner both in the closed position and in the extended position.
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die Herstellungs- und Montagekosten eines Rahmens der vorgenannten Art zu reduzieren, und dessen Stabilität wesentlich zu erhöhen. Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem gattungsgemäßen Rahmen dadurch gelöst, daß die Gelenkschale und der Gelenkbolzen jeweils an einem Profilelement ausgebildet sind, wobei eines der Profilelemente ein Rastelement aufweist, das an dem anderen Profilelement an einer im wesentlichen kreisbogenförmigen Fläche elastisch angreift, in der mindestens eine Rastvertiefung ausgebildet ist.The present invention has for its object to reduce the manufacturing and assembly costs of a frame of the aforementioned type, and to increase its stability significantly. This object is achieved in a generic frame in that the joint shell and the hinge pin are each formed on a profile element, wherein one of the profile elements has a locking element which engages the other profile element on an essentially circular arc-shaped surface in which at least one locking recess is trained.
Der erfindungsgemäße Rahmen benötigt keine Blattfedern. Die jeweils an einer Reibfläche elastisch angreifenden Rastelemente stellen in Verbindung mit den zugeordneten Rastvertiefungen sicher, daß die Frontelemente auch ohne Blattfedern fest in der geschlossenen bzw. herausgeklappten Stellung gehalten werden. Durch den Wegfall der Blattfedern ergeben sich geringere Herstellungs- und Montagekosten.The frame according to the invention does not require leaf springs. The latching elements, each of which engages elastically on a friction surface, in conjunction with the associated latching depressions, ensure that the front elements are held firmly in the closed or folded-out position even without leaf springs. The elimination of the leaf springs results in lower manufacturing and assembly costs.
Eine bevorzugte Ausgestaltung des Rahmens besteht darin, daß das Rastelement in Form eines bogenförmigen Längsschenkels an dem den Gelenkbolzen aufweisenden Profilelement ausgebildet ist.A preferred embodiment of the frame is that the locking element is designed in the form of an arcuate longitudinal leg on the profile element having the hinge pin.
Nach einer anderen vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung ist der Gelenkbolzen mit einer Längsnut versehen, die zwei elastische Schenkelabschnitte definiert. Aufgrund seiner elastischen Schenkelabschnitte kann der Gelenkbolzen beim Einsetzen in die Gelenkschale um einen bestimmten Betrag zusammengepreßt werden. Hierdurch ist es möglich, den Umfangsbereich des Gelenkbolzens zu erhöhen, der von der Gelenkschale umgriffen wird.According to another advantageous embodiment, the hinge pin is provided with a longitudinal groove which defines two elastic leg sections. Due to its elastic leg sections, the hinge pin can be compressed by a certain amount when it is inserted into the hinge shell. This makes it possible to increase the circumferential area of the hinge pin which is encompassed by the hinge shell.
Eine besonders sichere Verbindung von Gelenkbolzen und Gelenkschale ergibt sich bei der vorgenannten Ausgestaltung, wenn die Längsnut des Gelenkbolzens eine Erweiterung aufweist, in die ein Rundstab formschlüssig einsetzbar ist. Dabei können an der Innenseite der Schenkelabschnitte des Gelenkbolzens vorzugsweise mindestens drei im Querschnitt spitzwinklige Erhebungen ausgebildet sind, die gleichmäßig am Innenumfang der Schenkelabschnitte verteilt sind. Die spitzwinkligen Erhebungen erleichtern das Einsetzen des Rundstabes in den Gelenkbolzen, indem sie die Kontaktfläche und damit die Reibung zwischen Rundstab und Gelenkbolzen weitgehend verringern .A particularly secure connection of the hinge pin and the joint shell results in the aforementioned embodiment if the longitudinal groove of the hinge pin has an extension into which a round rod can be inserted in a form-fitting manner. You can do this on the inside of the Leg sections of the hinge pin are preferably formed at least three elevations with an acute angle in cross section, which are evenly distributed on the inner circumference of the leg sections. The acute-angled elevations make it easier to insert the round bar into the hinge pin by largely reducing the contact area and thus the friction between the round bar and hinge pin.
Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Rahmens besteht darin, daß dessen Frontelemente an den jeweiligen schwenkbaren Profilelementen lösbar befestigbar sind. Hierdurch ist es möglich, den Rahmen mit in Farbe und/oder Form unterschiedlich gestalteten Frontelementen zu versehen, so daß dieser optimal an die jeweilige Montageumgebung angepaßt werden kann.Another advantageous embodiment of the frame according to the invention is that its front elements are releasably attachable to the respective pivotable profile elements. This makes it possible to provide the frame with differently designed front elements in color and / or shape, so that it can be optimally adapted to the particular installation environment.
Desweiteren besteht eine zweckmäßige Ausgestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Rahmens darin, daß die Frontelemente und/oder die Profilelemente zweckmäßigerweiεe gegen unbefugtes Öffnen des Rahmens verriegelbar sind.Furthermore, an expedient embodiment of the frame according to the invention is that the front elements and / or the profile elements are expediently lockable against unauthorized opening of the frame.
Nachstehend wird die Erfindung anhand einer ein Ausführungsbeispiel darstellenden Zeichnung näher beschrieben .The invention is described in more detail below with the aid of a drawing illustrating an exemplary embodiment.

Der erfindungsgemäße Rahmen besteht aus einem Grundrahmen, der aus vier Seitenteilen zusammengesetzt ist, wobei jeweils zwei Seitenteile im wesentlichen parallel zueinander angeordnet sind. Das untere Seitenteil umfaßt ein Rechteckrohr 1 und ein Quadratrohr 2, die aneinanderliegend mit einem Winkelprofil 3 verbunden sind. Das Rechteckrohr 1 bildet mit dem Quadratrohr 2 einen Absatz, an dem ein Hutprofil 4 befestigt ist, das bündig mit dem Quadratrohr 2 abschließt. Das Quadratrohr 2 und das Hutprofil 4 tragen eine Platte 5, die mit dem Winkelprofil 3 eine Einfassung zur Aufnahme von Plakaten oder dergleichen bildet . Das Winkelprofil 3 dient gleichzeitig als Schutz gegen Verschmutzungen durch heruntertropfenden Plakatleim (sog. Leimrinne) .The frame according to the invention consists of a base frame which is composed of four side parts, two side parts each being arranged essentially parallel to one another. The lower side part comprises a rectangular tube 1 and a square tube 2, which are connected to one another with an angular profile 3. The rectangular tube 1 forms with the square tube 2 a shoulder on which a hat profile 4 is fastened, which is flush with the square tube 2. The square tube 2 and the hat profile 4 carry a plate 5, which forms a border with the angle profile 3 for receiving posters or the like. The angle profile 3 also serves as protection against soiling from dripping poster glue (so-called glue channel).
An der Außenseite des Winkelprofils 3 ist ein zweifach abgewinkeltes Profilelement 6 befestigt, an dem über ein zweites Profilelement 7 ein Frontelement 8 angelenkt ist . Das Gelenk besteht aus einer kanalförmigen Gelenkschale 9, in die ein Gelenkbolzen 10 eingreift, der mit einer Längsnut 11 versehen ist, die zwei elastische Schenkelabschnitte 12, 13 bildet. Die Längsnut 11 weist eine Erweiterung 14 auf, an deren Innenseite drei spitzwinklige Rippen 15 abstehen, die gleichmäßig verteilt am Außenumfang eines in die Längsnut 11 formschlüssig eingesetzten Rundstabes 16 angreifen. An dem Profilelement 7 ist einstückig ein bogenförmiger Längsschenkel 17 ausgebildet, der als Rastelement wirkt und an der Gelenkschale 9 des Profilelements 6 elastisch an einer im wesentlichen kreisbogenförmigen Reibfläche 18 angreift. Die Reibfläche 18 weist eine Vertiefung 19 auf, in die der mit einer Erhebung versehene Längsschenkel 17 des Profilelements 7 beim Herausklappen des Frontelements 8 einrastet (vgl. Fig. 2).A double-angled profile element 6 is fastened to the outside of the angle profile 3, to which a front element 8 is articulated via a second profile element 7. The joint consists of a channel-shaped joint shell 9, in which a hinge pin 10 engages, which is provided with a longitudinal groove 11, which forms two elastic leg sections 12, 13. The longitudinal groove 11 has an extension 14, on the inside of which protrude three acute-angled ribs 15, which engage evenly distributed on the outer circumference of a round rod 16 inserted in the longitudinal groove 11 with a positive fit. An arcuate longitudinal leg 17 is formed in one piece on the profile element 7, which acts as a locking element and elastically engages on the joint shell 9 of the profile element 6 on a substantially circular arcuate friction surface 18. The friction surface 18 has a recess 19 into which the longitudinal leg 17 of the profile element 7, which is provided with an elevation, engages when the front element 8 is folded out (cf. FIG. 2).
Im geschlossenen Zustand können die Frontelemente 8 gegen unbefugtes Öffnen durch eine geeignete Verriegelung (nicht gezeigt) gesichert werden, die z.B. in Form eines Schlosses oder eines mit einem Spezialwerkzeug verschwenkbaren Lasche, die in der Verschlußstellung einen Vorsprung am Grundrahmen hintergreift.In the closed state, the front elements 8 can be secured against unauthorized opening by a suitable lock (not shown), which e.g. in the form of a lock or a flap that can be swiveled with a special tool, which in the closed position engages behind a projection on the base frame.
Das Profilelement 7 hat eine im wesentlichen ebene Stützfläche 20, an der das Frontelement 8 mit einem entsprechend ebenen Wandabschnitt 21 anliegt. Das Frontelement 8 ist ein Hohlkörper, der im Inneren durch mehrere Querverstrebungen versteift ist. Zur Befestigung des Frontelements 8 ist das Profilelement 7 mit einer wulstförmigen Längskante 22 versehen, die von einer Auskehlung 23 des Frontelements 8 umgriffen wird. Ferner ist das Profilelement 7 mit einer hinterschnitten Längsnut 24 versehen, in die zur Befestigung des zugehörigen Frontelements 8 Befestigungselemente (nicht gezeigt) lösbar verankert werden können.The profile element 7 has an essentially flat support surface 20, on which the front element 8 bears with a correspondingly flat wall section 21. The front element 8 is a hollow body which is stiffened on the inside by a plurality of cross struts. For fastening the front element 8, the profile element 7 is provided with a bead-shaped longitudinal edge 22 which is encompassed by a groove 23 of the front element 8. Furthermore, the profile element 7 is provided with an undercut longitudinal groove 24, into which 8 fastening elements (not shown) can be detachably anchored for fastening the associated front element.
In den Rahmenecken sind die Frontelemente 8 durch (nicht gezeigte) Eckstücke miteinander verbunden. Alternativ können die Frontelemente 8 und Profilelemente 6, 7 in den Rahmenecken auch auf Gehrung geschnitten sein. Um dem erfindungsgemäßen Rahmen eine hohe Stabilität und Langlebigkeit zu verleihen, sind die Profilelemente 6, 7 vorzugsweise aus einer Al-Mg-Si-Legierung stranggegossen. Die Frontelemente 8 bestehen dagegen vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff, so daß verschiedene Färb- und Formvarianten kostengünstig realisierbar sind. In the frame corners, the front elements 8 are connected to one another by corner pieces (not shown). Alternatively, the front elements 8 and profile elements 6, 7 can also be mitred in the frame corners. In order to give the frame according to the invention high stability and durability, the profile elements 6, 7 are preferably continuously cast from an Al-Mg-Si alloy. The front elements 8, however, are preferably made of plastic, so that different color and shape variants can be realized inexpensively.
