Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft ein Spannelement zum Fixieren eines Kleidungsstücks, insbesondere einer Hose, an einem die Enden eines Kleiderbügels verbindenden Querträger, mit einem mittleren versteiften Bereich und zwei äußeren Blattfederelementen.The invention relates to a clamping element for fixing a Garment, especially a pair of pants, the ends at one a crossbar connecting a hanger, with a middle one stiffened area and two outer leaf spring elements.
Spannelemente dieser Art werden bisher als ein Verbundteil hergestellt, das aus einem mittleren Kunststoff-Haltegriff und einem aus Stahl hergestellten Blattfederelement besteht. Die Herstellung eines solchen Verbundteils ist relativ aufwendig, da die Stahlblattfedern vorgefertigt und anschließend mit separat gefertigten Kunststoffbauteilen montiert oder zum Zwecke des Umspritzens in das Spritzgusswerkzeug eingelegt werden müssen. Die Vorfertigung und die Montage oder das Einlegen der Blattfederelemente stellen einen zusätzlichen Aufwand zum Spritzen dar, der somit auch zusätzliche Kosten verursacht.Clamping elements of this type have so far been considered a composite part made of a medium plastic handle and a leaf spring element made of steel. The The manufacture of such a composite part is relatively complex, because the steel leaf springs are prefabricated and then with separately manufactured plastic components assembled or Inserted into the injection molding tool for the purpose of overmolding Need to become. Prefabrication and assembly or insertion the leaf spring elements represent an additional effort for spraying, which also means additional costs caused.
Die Erfindung hat die Aufgabe, ein Spannelement zu schaffen, bei dem das bisherige Vorfertigen und Einlegen eines Blattfederelements ins Spritzgusswerkzeug ebenso entfallen kann wie die alternative Montage der Blattfeder mit Kunststoffelementen. The object of the invention is to create a tensioning element in which the previous prefabrication and insertion of a leaf spring element into the injection mold as well as the alternative assembly of the leaf spring with plastic elements.
Die Erfindung löst die gestellte Aufgabe mit einem Spannelement zum Fixieren eines Kleidungsstücks, insbesondere einer Hose, an einem die Enden eines Kleiderbügels verbindenden Querträger mit einem mittleren versteiften Bereich und zwei äußeren Blattfederelementen, wobei dieses Spannelement vollständig aus Kunststoff gefertigt ist. Somit entfallen automatisch die Vorfertigung der Blattfederelemente und das bisherige Einlegen der Blattfederelemente ins Spritzgusswerkzeug oder die Montage mit Kunststoffelementen, wodurch besonders im Hinblick auf große Stückzahlen die Fertigungskosten erheblich reduziert werden können.The invention solves the problem with a clamping element for fixing a piece of clothing, in particular one Pants, on one connecting the ends of a hanger Cross members with a central stiffened area and two outer leaf spring elements, this clamping element completely is made of plastic. This automatically eliminates the prefabrication of the leaf spring elements and the previous one Insert the leaf spring elements in the injection molding tool or the assembly with plastic elements, which makes especially in Considering the large quantities, the manufacturing costs are considerable can be reduced.
Die Blattfederelemente können eine über die Länge veränderliche Dicke aufweisen. Dadurch kann die Dicke der Höhe der im Bauteil wirkenden Spannungen angepasst werden, woraus möglichst geringe Dehnungen der Blattfederelemente resultieren. Somit wird eine eventuelle Überlastung durch zu hohe Spannungen oder Dehnungen, die zu einem Relaxieren oder Kriechen des Blattfederelements führen kann, verhindert.The leaf spring elements can be variable over the length Have thickness. This allows the thickness of the height of the Component-acting voltages are adjusted, from which possible low elongations of the leaf spring elements result. Thus, a possible overload due to excessive voltages or stretches that lead to a relaxation or creep of the Leaf spring element can prevent prevented.
Um optimale Federeigenschaften der Blattfederelemente sicherstellen zu können, können die Blattfederelemente in den versteiften Mittelbereich hineinragen. Dadurch lässt sich auch die Rückschnappfunktion des Spannelements sicher gewährleisten.To ensure optimal spring properties of the leaf spring elements to be able to stiffen the leaf spring elements Protrude into the middle area. This also allows ensure the snap-back function of the clamping element.
Die Blattfederelemente können eine Krümmung aufweisen, sodass sie an den Verbindungsstellen mit dem Kleiderbügel einen Steigungswinkel von vorzugsweise 1 Grad bis 35 Grad gegenüber der Horizontalen besitzen. Durch diese Krümmung wird das Federverhalten und das Rückschnappen der Blattfederelemente wie auch die Anpressung des eingespannten Kleidungsstücks verbessert. The leaf spring elements can have a curvature, so that at the connection points with the clothes hanger a pitch angle from preferably 1 degree to 35 degrees over that Own horizontal. Through this curvature the spring behavior and snapping back the leaf spring elements like the pressure of the clamped garment also improved.
Damit das Spannelement beim Einspannen des Kleidungsstücks bzw. beim Öffnen des Spannelements gut auf und zu schnappt, kann es an seinen beiden Enden außerdem jeweils ein Gelenk zur gelenkigen Verbindung mit dem Kleiderbügel aufweisen.So that the tensioning element when clamping the garment or snaps open and closed when opening the tensioning element, it can also have a joint at both ends have an articulated connection to the hanger.
Vorteilhafterweise kann das Spannelement aus Kunststoff, vorzugsweise aus POM, Polycarbonat oder schlagzähmodifiziertem Polystyrol, hergestellt sein.The tensioning element can advantageously be made of plastic, preferably made of POM, polycarbonate or impact modified Polystyrene.
Zur Erzielung höherer Spannkräfte und einer verbesserten Rückschnappfunktion kann auch ein glasfaserverstärkter Kunststoff, beispielsweise POM-GF verwendet werden.To achieve higher clamping forces and an improved snap-back function can also be a glass fiber reinforced plastic, for example POM-GF can be used.
Wenn man das Spannelement aus einem amorphen Kunststoff fertigt, beispielsweise aus Polycarbonat, dann neigen insbesondere die Blattfederelemente weniger zum Relaxieren.If you make the clamping element out of an amorphous plastic, for example made of polycarbonate, then tend in particular the leaf spring elements less to relax.
Dabei ist es auch möglich, das Spannelement in einem Arbeitsgang zu fertigen, ohne separate Montageschritte.It is also possible to do the clamping element in one operation to be manufactured without separate assembly steps.
Aus Gründen einer einfachen Fertigung, können der versteifte Mittelbereich und die Blattfederelemente als ein einteiliges Spritzgussteil ausgebildet sein.For reasons of simple production, the stiffened Middle section and the leaf spring elements as a one-piece Be injection molded part.
Nachfolgend werden verschiedene Ausführungsbeispiele von erfindungsgemäßen Spannelementen anhand der beiliegenden Zeichnung näher erläutert.Various exemplary embodiments of the invention are described below Clamping elements based on the enclosed drawing explained in more detail.

Fig. 1 zeigt ein vollständig aus Kunststoff gefertigtes Spannelement
10, das zwei Blattfederelemente 11 und 12 aufweist.
Die Blattfederelemente 11 und 12 ragen mit den Abschnitten 13
und 14 in einen versteiften Mittelbereich 15 hinein. Durch den
versteiften Mittelbereich 15 sowie die hineinragenden Elemente
13 und 14 erhalten die Blattfederelemente 11 und 12 optimale
Schnappeigenschaften, die zum Einspannen eines Kleidungsstücks
oder zum Öffnen des Spannelements 10 hilfreich sind.
Die Blattfederelemente 11 und 12 weisen eine über die Länge
veränderliche Dicke auf. Dadurch wird eine gleichmäßige Spannungs-
und Dehnungsverteilung über die Länge der Blattfederelemente
11 und 12 erreicht. Somit kann ein Relaxieren oder
Kriechen der Blattfederelemente 11 und 12 vermieden werden.
Vorteilhafterweise sind die Blattfederelemente 11 und 12 zusammen
mit ihren Abschnitten 13 und 14 und dem versteiften
Mittelbereich 15 als ein einteiliges Kunststoff-Spritzgussteil
ausgebildet. An den jeweiligen Enden der Blattfederelemente 11
und 12 ist ein Gelenkelement 16 und 17 zur gelenkigen Lagerung
an einem nicht näher dargestellten Kleiderbügel angebracht.Fig. 1 shows a clamping element made entirely of
Fig. 2 zeigt ein in einen Kleiderbügel 20 montiertes Spannelement

einem versteiften Mittelbereich 26 aus Kunststoff. Dabei sind
an den Enden der Blattfederelemente Gelenkelemente 22 und 23
in Gelenkaufnahmen 24 und 25 am Kleiderbügel 20 eingebracht.
Zum Einspannen eines hier nicht näher dargestellten Kleidungsstücks
wird das Spannelement 21 heruntergedrückt, wobei ein
versteifter Mittelbereich 26 das Kleidungsstück gegen einen
Querträger 27 des Kleiderbügels 20 drückt und somit festhält.
Durch Ziehen am Mittelbereich 26 oder durch Druck auf eines
der Blattfederelemente 28, 29 kann das Spannelement 21 wieder
aus seiner Klemmstellung gelöst werden.2 shows a tensioning element mounted in a
