Abstract

The invention relates to a polygonal, especially rectangular, parallelpiped building block made from transparent plastic and configured from two hollow halves (1) with facing parallel lateral edges. Coupling elements (3, 4, 5, 6) extend substantially perpendicularly from the peripheral flanges (1'') of said parts to connect the building block with adjacent blocks and the coupling elements on the opposite faces of any two structural members are interlockable. One attachment (3 or 5) with a groove (3' or 5') preferably open towards the visible surface (1') and running parallel with the visible surface edge and one attachment (4' or 6') with a nose preferably remote from the visible surface (1') and running parallel to the visible surface edge are provided as coupling elements at a mutual distance on each peripheral flange of each half-block. Said attachments (5, 6) are elastically deformable on two mutually facing sides of the building block and adjacent blocks can be engaged with a positive and non-positive fit by inserting the noses (6') into the grooves (5') on a narrow side of the block in the direction of the course of the groove on one side and by interlocking of the noses (4') and grooves (3') on the adjacent narrow side at the front.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen mehreckigen, insbesondere viereckigen parallelepipedischen Baublock aus lichtdurchlässigem Kunststoff, der aus zwei hohlen Hälften mit einander gegenüberliegenden parallelen Seitenkanten zusammengesetzt ist, die gemäß einer parallel zu den Sichtflächen des Baublockes verlaufenden Ebene über sich senkrecht zu den Sichtflächen erstrekkenden Umfangsflansche miteinander verbunden sind, wobei sich von den Umfangsflanschen Kupplungselemente zur Verbindung des Baublockes mit benachbarten Baublöcken im wesentlichen senkrecht wegerstrecken und wobei die Kupplungselemente an zwei gegenüberliegenden Seiten jedes Bauelementes miteinander verrastbar sind.The invention relates to a polygonal, in particular quadrangular, parallelepipedal building block made of translucent plastic, which is composed of two hollow halves with mutually opposite parallel side edges, which are connected to one another according to a plane running parallel to the visible surfaces of the building block via circumferential flanges extending perpendicular to the visible surfaces, wherein coupling elements for connecting the building block to neighboring building blocks extend substantially perpendicularly from the peripheral flanges, and the coupling elements can be locked together on two opposite sides of each building element.

Bei einem aus der EP-0 438 110 B1 bekannten Baublock dieser Art sind zur Verbindung des Baublockes mit seitlich anschließenden Baublöcken und zum Festlegen eines vorbestimmten gegenseitigen Abstandes, z.B. zur Bildung einer lichtdurchlässigen Wand od.dgl., die Kupplungselemente als Verbinder mit je einer Zunge und einem Schlitz ausgebildet. Die Zunge bzw. der Schlitz verlaufen vom Umfangsflansch schräg nach außen geneigt, so daß jeder Baublock zum Anschluß diagonal bzw. schräg gegen den anderen Block bewegt und mittels eines Gummihammers od.dgl. mit diesem in Eingriff versetzt werden muß.In a building block of this type known from EP-0 438 110 B1, for connecting the building block to laterally adjacent building blocks and for establishing a predetermined mutual distance, e.g. to form a translucent wall or the like., The coupling elements are designed as a connector, each with a tongue and a slot. The tongue or slot run inclined outwards from the peripheral flange, so that each building block for connection moves diagonally or obliquely against the other block and the like by means of a rubber hammer. must be engaged with this.

Diese Ausbildung hat den Nachteil, daß die Kupplungselemente nicht verhindern können, daß ein einzelner Baublock aus einem Verbund senkrecht zu diesem herausgeschlagen werden kann, d.h. ein Einbruchschutz nicht gewährleistet ist. Außerdem ist die gegenseitige Verbindung der Baublöcke relativ schwierig, weil ein vorbestimmter Einsetzwinkel eingehalten werden muß und ein erheblicher Kraftaufwand erforderlich ist.This design has the disadvantage that the coupling elements cannot prevent a single building block from being knocked out of a composite perpendicular to it, i.e. Burglary protection is not guaranteed. In addition, the mutual connection of the building blocks is relatively difficult because a predetermined insertion angle must be maintained and considerable effort is required.

Die vorliegende Erfindung zielt darauf ab, die geschilderten Nachteile zu vermeiden und einen Baublock der einleitend angegebenen Art hinsichtlich der Kupplungselemente so auszubilden, daß die gegenseitige Verbindung der Baublöcke vereinfacht und ein Lösen eines Baublockes aus dem Verbund verhindert wird. Es sei erwähnt, daß aus der EP-0 368 479 bereits Baublöcke bekannt sind, bei denen ein Herausschlagen aus dem Verbund verhindert ist, doch sind zum Kuppeln der bekannten Baublöcke gesonderte Kupplungsstücke erforderlich, die in fluchtende Ansätze der Baublöcke eingesetzt werden müssen. Dies stellt einen herstellungstechnischen und kostenmäßigen sowie auch handhabungsmäßigen Nachteil dar.The present invention aims to avoid the disadvantages described and to design a building block of the type specified in the introduction with regard to the coupling elements in such a way that the mutual connection of the building blocks is simplified and a building block is prevented from being released from the assembly. It should be mentioned that building blocks are known from EP-0 368 479, in which building blocks prevent them from knocking out is, but separate coupling pieces are required to couple the known building blocks, which must be used in aligned approaches of the building blocks. This represents a disadvantage in terms of production technology, costs and handling.

Der erfindungsgemäße Baublock zeichnet sich dadurch aus, daß als Kupplungselemente an jedem Umfangsflansch jeder Baublockhälfte, vorzugsweise nahe deren Sichtfläche, mit gegenseitigem Abstand je ein Ansatz mit einer vorzugsweise gegen die Sichtfläche offenen, parallel zur Sichtflächenkante verlaufenden Nut und ein Ansatz mit einer vorzugsweise von der Sichtfläche abgekehrten, parallel zur Sichtflächenkante verlaufenden Nase vorgesehen sind, wobei jeweils die Ansätze auf zwei einander gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Baublockes elastisch verformbar sind, und daß benachbarte Baublöcke einerseits durch Ineinanderschieben von Nasen und Nuten an einer Schmalseite des Baublockes in Richtung des Nutverlaufes sowie durch stirnseitiges Ineinanderrasten von Nasen und Nuten an der angrenzenden Schmalseite form- und kraftschlüssig miteinander in Eingriff versetzbar sind.The building block according to the invention is characterized in that as coupling elements on each circumferential flange of each building block half, preferably close to the visible surface, with a spacing from each other an approach with a preferably open to the visible surface, running parallel to the visible surface edge and an approach with a preferably from the visible surface turned away, parallel to the visible edge of the nose are provided, each of the approaches on two opposite sides of the building block are elastically deformable, and that neighboring building blocks on the one hand by pushing noses and grooves on a narrow side of the building block in the direction of the groove course and by locking on the front side Lugs and grooves on the adjacent narrow side can be positively and non-positively engaged.

Durch diese Ausbildung können die Baublöcke nicht nur auf einfache Weise, nämlich durch geradliniges Ineinanderschieben entlang der einen Schmalseite und Einrasten der in Schieberichtung stirnseitigen Schmalseite in die Schmalseite des benachbarten Blockes miteinander verbunden werden, sondern es wird zugleich die Gefahr eines Herausbrechens eines einzelnen Baublockes aus dem Verbund verhindert, weil jeder Baublock in drei orthogonalen Richtungen formschlüssig mit den benachbarten Baublöcken verbunden ist.With this design, the building blocks can not only be connected to one another in a simple manner, namely by pushing one into the other along the narrow side and snapping the narrow side at the front in the sliding direction into the narrow side of the adjacent block, but at the same time there is a risk of a single building block breaking out of the Compound prevents because each building block is positively connected to the neighboring building blocks in three orthogonal directions.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind die elastisch verformbaren Ansätze im Querschnitt mit einer gegensinnig schrägen Stirnseite und vorzugsweise auch gegensinnig schrägen Innenseite versehen, wogegen die anderen Ansätze mit geraden Stirnseiten und Innenseiten versehen sind.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the elastically deformable lugs are provided in cross-section with an oppositely sloping face and preferably also in opposite directions, while the other lugs are provided with straight faces and insides.

Die Ansätze liegen zweckmäßig nahe den Ecken der Baublöcke.The approaches are conveniently close to the corners of the building blocks.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend an einem Ausführungsbeispiel unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnungen näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 eine Perspektivansicht einer Baublockhälfte;
  • Fig. 2 eine Seitenansicht des Baublockes in Richtung der Pfeile P2-2 in Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 eine Seitenansicht des Baublockes in Richtung der Pfeile P3-3 in Fig. 1;
  • die Fig. 4 und 5 die Kupplungselemente des Baublockes nach den Fig. 1 und 2 im Detail, und
  • Fig. 6 eine Ansicht eines Verbundes mit Baublöcken gemäß den Fig. 1-3.
The invention is explained in more detail using an exemplary embodiment with reference to the drawings. Show it:
  • 1 is a perspective view of a building block half;
  • Fig. 2 is a side view of the building block in the direction of arrows P2-2 in Fig. 1;
  • Fig. 3 is a side view of the building block in the direction of arrows P3-3 in Fig. 1;
  • 4 and 5, the coupling elements of the building block according to FIGS. 1 and 2 in detail, and
  • 6 is a view of a composite with building blocks according to FIGS. 1-3.

Gemäß Fig. 1 weist eine aus lichtdurchlässigem Kunststoff, z.B. aus Polycarbonat oder Polymethylmetacrylat geformte parallelepipedische hohle Hälfte 1 eines Baublockes eine quadratische Sichtfläche 1' und einen sich von dieser gegen die Bausteinmitte erstreckenden Umfangsflansch 1" auf. Die Baublockhälften werden, wie dies angedeutet ist, entlang des Umfangsrandes des Flansches 1" miteinander zu einem Baublock verschweißt.1, one made of translucent plastic, e.g. parallelepipedic hollow half 1 of a building block formed from polycarbonate or polymethyl methacrylate has a square visible surface 1 'and a circumferential flange 1 "extending therefrom towards the center of the building block. As indicated, the building block halves together form a building block along the circumferential edge of the flange 1" welded.

Unterhalb eines vorspringenden Umfangsrandes der Sichtfläche 1' erstrecken sich auf jeder Seite der Baublockhälfte 1 von dem Umfangsflansch 1" zwei Kupplungsansätze 3, 4 bzw. 5, 6 im wesentlichen senkrecht weg. Die Ansätze liegen nahe den Ecken des Baublockes.Below a protruding circumferential edge of the visible surface 1 ', two coupling projections 3, 4 and 5, 6 extend substantially perpendicularly on each side of the building block half 1 from the circumferential flange 1 ". The approaches lie near the corners of the building block.

Jeweils auf zwei einander gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Baublockes weist einer 3 der beiden Kupplungsansätze eine gegen die Sichtfläche 1' offene, parallel zum Umfangsflansch 1" verlaufende Nut 3' und der andere Kupplungsansatz 4 eine ebenfalls parallel zum Umfangsflansch 1" verlaufende Rippe 4' auf. Diese Teile sind aus Fig. 3 im Detail ersichtlich. Aus dieser Figur ist erkennbar, daß die Stirnseiten und die Innenseiten beider Ansätze 3, 4 gegensinnig abgeschrägt sind. Auf den beiden anderen einander gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Baublockes sind die entsprechenden Ansätze 5, 6 mit geraden Stirnseiten versehen, wie dies insbesondere aus Fig. 4 hervorgeht.On each of two opposite sides of the building block, one 3 of the two coupling lugs has a groove 3 'which is open towards the visible surface 1' and runs parallel to the peripheral flange 1 ", and the other coupling lug 4 has a rib 4 'which also runs parallel to the peripheral flange 1". These parts can be seen in detail in FIG. 3. From this figure it can be seen that the end faces and the inside of both lugs 3, 4 are chamfered in opposite directions. On the other two opposite sides of the building block, the corresponding lugs 5, 6 are provided with straight faces, as can be seen in particular from FIG. 4.

Wie Fig. 6 zeigt können die Baublöcke über die Ansätze 3, 4 bzw. 5, 6 miteinander formschlüssig verbunden werden, wobei die Ansätze zugleich den gegenseitigen Abstand der Baublöcke festlegen. Die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung ermöglicht es, benachbarte Baublöcke entlang einer ihrer Schmalseiten, die mit den Ansätzen 5, 6 ausgestattet sind, in Richtung parallel zu dieser mit ihren Kupplungselementnuten 5' und -nasen 6' ineinander zu schieben und zugleich die jeweils fluchtenden Ansätze 3, 4 unter elastischer Verformung über die abgeschrägten Nasen und Nuten 3' stirnseitig ineinander zu klicken. Auf diese Weise werden die Baublöcke form- und kraftschlüssig miteinander verbunden und können aus dem Verbund nicht mehr einzeln herausgeschlagen werden.As shown in FIG. 6, the building blocks can be positively connected to one another via the lugs 3, 4 and 5, 6, respectively the approaches also define the mutual spacing of the building blocks. The design according to the invention makes it possible to push adjacent building blocks along one of their narrow sides, which are provided with the lugs 5, 6, in the direction parallel to this with their coupling element grooves 5 ′ and lugs 6 ′, and at the same time to align the lugs 3, 4, respectively with elastic deformation over the beveled lugs and grooves 3 'click into each other at the end. In this way, the building blocks are positively and non-positively connected to each other and can no longer be knocked out of the composite individually.

Es versteht sich, daß die vorstehend erläuterten Ausführungsbeispiele im Rahmen des Inhalts der Patentansprüche verschiedentlich abgewandelt werden können, insbesondere was die Form der Ansätze und deren Relativlage betrifft.It goes without saying that the exemplary embodiments explained above can be modified in various ways within the scope of the content of the patent claims, in particular as regards the shape of the approaches and their relative position.
