Therefore, after the handle sleeve (s) have been installed, remain on the hand crank or be removed. Here the assembly and disassembly of the unlocking sleeve will be easier if According to a further embodiment of the invention, the longitudinal slot for widened end of the unlocking sleeve towards the tongue.
  • connection of the end part with the The rod can be produced using an unlocked pin and the inserted pin arranged within the mounted grip sleeve and thus covered during operation.
  • the pin therefore only needs to be inserted and not attached.
  • the residual funds and the Handle sleeve for the other end part of the hand crank as for that end part and that grip sleeve formed, which lie towards the rod.
  • This allows Handle sleeves of the same type used for both end parts of the hand crank become.
  • the unlocking sleeve can also be used for assembly and disassembly this other grip sleeve can be used.
  • the hand crank 1 shown in Fig. 1 consists of two shaft-shaped End parts 2, 3 and one articulated with these end parts via the joints G1 and G2 connected cross part 4.
  • the end parts 2, 3 and the cross part 4 are as Round rods formed and preferably made of aluminum.
  • locking means that ensure that the end parts 2, 3 in the operating position shown and in the extended Engage the rest position of the hand crank.
  • There is one on each of the two end parts 2, 3 The outside of the hexagonal grip sleeve 5 or 6 is freely rotatable.
  • This Handle sleeves are preferably made of plastic and are injection molded manufactured.
  • the end part 2 can be connected to a rod 7 to be rotated, which, for example, for actuating the drive mechanism of Blinds or shutters can serve and preferably as a hollow bar is trained.
  • the structure of the grip sleeve for example the grip sleeve 5, is in the Shown individually.
  • the grip sleeve 5 has six on its inner circumference provided first ribs 8 that evenly on the inner surface of the grip sleeve are distributed radially, are arranged axially parallel, from one end 9 of the Handle sleeve 5 go out and a much shorter length than the handle sleeve 5th have and thus lie approximately in the end region of the grip sleeve 5.
