Abstract

The invention relates to a vending and storage device (1) for tools, comprising a support device for tools having a cylindrical shaft with differing sizes and arranged in rows in locating slots (8). An elongated precision measuring channel (3a, 3b, 3c) is allocated and arranged parallel to said slots (8). A measuring gage (5) formed by stop bodies (6,2) is allocated to each locating slot (8) in or on the precision measuring channel (3a, 3b, 3c). Several precision measuring channels (3a, 3b, 3c) are arranged in a substantially parallel manner in the support device. Said channels lead to a rough measuring channel (4) with measuring gages (5) extending along the front face of the precision measuring channels (3a, 3b, 3c) at a right angle therefrom. Several locating slots (8a, 8b, 8c) for tools having the same diameter are allocated to at least the precision measuring channels (3a, 3b, 3c).

Description

„Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrunqsvorrichtunq für Werkzeuge""Sales and storage device for tools"
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Hauptanspruches.The invention relates to a sales and storage device according to the preamble of the main claim.
Eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffes ist aus der EP 311 789 B1 bekannt und sie gibt die Möglichkeit, daß ein sicheres Einordnen von zylindrischen Werkstücken schnell und ohne große Aufmerksamkeit durchgeführt werden kann. Diese Vorrichtung hat sich in der Praxis bewährt.A device with the features of the preamble is known from EP 311 789 B1 and it gives the possibility that a safe arrangement of cylindrical workpieces can be carried out quickly and without much attention. This device has proven itself in practice.
Als Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung besteht aber die Notwendigkeit, dafür zu sorgen, daß insbesondere bei Bohrern geringeren Durchmessers mehr als ein Bohrer zur Verfügung gestellt wird, da diese Bohrer schnell abbrechen, so daß in einer Werkstatt trotz Beschädigung oder Verlust eines Bohrers schnell ein weiterer Bohrer zur Verfügung steht. Insbesondere für professionelle Betriebe wird weiterhin angestrebt, daß die Bohrer geringeren Durchmessers beim Kauf eines Bohrersatzes in größerer Anzahl vorhanden sind als die Bohrer größeren Durchmessers, da erfahrungsgemäß der Nachkaufbedarf fürHowever, as a sales and storage device, there is a need to ensure that more than one drill bit is made available, particularly in the case of small diameter drills, since these drill bits break off quickly, so that in a workshop, despite the damage or loss of a drill bit, another drill bit quickly is available. In particular for professional companies, efforts are still being made to ensure that the smaller diameter drills are available in larger numbers when buying a drill set than the larger diameter drills, since experience has shown that there is a need for replacement
Bohrer geringeren Durchmessers wesentlich höher ist. Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung für Werkzeuge, insbesondere Bohrer, zu schaffen, die schon beim Kauf berücksichtigt, daß Bohrer geringeren Durchmessers einem erhöhten Verbrauch unterliegen und deshalb in größerer Anzahl vorhanden sein müssen und die während der Benutzung der Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung dem Benutzer die Möglichkeit gibt, daß gerade Bohrer, die einem schnelleren Verschleiß oder einer größeren Bruchanfälligkeit unterliegen, in größerer Zahl zur Verfügung stehen.Drill of smaller diameter is much higher. The invention has for its object to provide a sales and storage device for tools, in particular drills, which already takes into account when buying that smaller diameter drills are subject to increased consumption and therefore must be present in large numbers and during use of the storage device gives the user the possibility that especially drills that are subject to faster wear or greater susceptibility to breakage are available in greater numbers.
Diese der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe wird durch die Lehre des Hauptanspruches gelöst.This object on which the invention is based is achieved by the teaching of the main claim.
Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen sind in den Unteransprüchen er- läutert.Advantageous configurations are explained in the subclaims.
Mit anderen Worten ausgedrückt wird vorgeschlagen, daß die die Bohrer aufnehmende Vorrichtung eine Abdeckplatte aufweist, die mit Feinmeßkanälen und einem Grobmeßkanal ausge- rüstet ist, wobei die Feinmeßkanäle und der Grobmeßkanal in an sich bekannter Weise Meßlehren aufweisen, die dem jeweiligen Aufnahmeloch zugeordnet sind, wobei aber den Feinmeßkanälen für die kleineren Werkzeugdurchmesser, d. h. kleineren Bohrerdurchmessern, mehrere Aufnahmelöcher für diese Werkzeuge gleichen Durchmessers zugeordnet werden, so daß beispielsweise dem Bohrerdurchmesser „1 mm" drei Aufnahme- löcher zugeordnet sind. Dem zweiten Feinmeßkanal, der beispielsweise den Werkzeugdurchmessern von 4,2 mm bis 8 mm zugeordnet ist, werden zwei Aufnahmelöcher für jeden Werk- zeugdurchmesser zugeordnet, was auch, wenn die Vorrichtung entsprechend groß ausgebildet ist, beim dritten Meßkanal vorgesehen sein kann, was aber im Prinzip nicht so wichtig ist, da die stärkeren Bohrer weniger oft abbrechen und weniger stark verschleißen. Gemäß der Erfindung wird weiterhin vorgesehen, daß an die Aufnahmelöcher in der eigentlichen Abdeckplatte der Vorrichtung über den größten Teil ihrer Länge geschlossenwandig ausgebildete Köcher anschließen, die vorzugsweise im oberen Bereich mit der Anfasung oder Abrundung in die Abdeckplatte übergehen. Weiterhin ist vorgesehen, daß diese Köcher im oberen Bereich einen Innendurchmesser aufweisen, der größer ist als der Nenndurchmesser des Werkzeuges und im unteren Bereich einen Innendurchmesser, der zwar größer ist als der Nenndurchmesser, aber kleiner als der Innendurchmesser im oberen Bereich. Durch diese Maßnahmen wird bewirkt, daß ein schnelles Einführen eines Bohrers über die Anfasung in der Abdeckplatte in den Köcher möglich wird.In other words, it is proposed that the device receiving the drills has a cover plate which is equipped with fine measuring channels and a rough measuring channel, the fine measuring channels and the rough measuring channel having measuring gauges in a manner known per se which are assigned to the respective receiving hole, whereby but the fine measuring channels for the smaller tool diameters, ie smaller drill diameters, are assigned several receiving holes for these tools of the same diameter, so that, for example, three receiving holes are assigned to the drill diameter "1 mm". The second fine measuring channel, for example the tool diameter of 4.2 mm to 8 mm is assigned, two receiving holes are assigned for each tool diameter, which can also be provided for the third measuring channel if the device is of a correspondingly large size, but this is in principle not so important since the stronger drills are used less often abort and wear less. According to the invention, it is further provided that quenches formed in the actual cover plate of the device over most of its length are connected to the receiving holes, which preferably merge into the cover plate in the upper region with the chamfering or rounding. It is further provided that these quivers have an inner diameter in the upper region which is larger than the nominal diameter of the tool and in the lower region an inner diameter which is larger than the nominal diameter but smaller than the inner diameter in the upper region. These measures ensure that a drill can be quickly inserted into the quiver via the chamfer in the cover plate.
Da der Köcher über den größten Teil seiner Länge geschlossenwandig ausgebildet ist, erfolgt hier eine gute Führung des Bohrerendes, so daß ein Verkanten des Bohrers vermieden wird. Sollten an der Außenseite des Bohrers Grate vorstehen, die durch die Festsetzvorrichtung in der Bohrmaschine bewirkt werden, bewirken die größeren Innendurchmesser der Köcher, daß hier trotzdem ein einwandfreies Einsetzen des Bohrers in das zugesetzte Aufnahmeloch bzw. in den zugeordneten Köcher erreicht wird.Since the quiver is closed-walled over most of its length, the drill end is guided well here, so that the drill does not tilt. Should burrs protrude on the outside of the drill, which are caused by the fixing device in the drill, the larger inside diameter of the quiver means that the drill is still inserted correctly into the added receiving hole or into the associated quiver.
Die gesamte Vorrichtung kann aus Kunststoff hergestellt, beispielsweise gespritzt werden, kann aber auch aus Metall gefertigt werden und schließlich scheint es vorteilhaft, daß diese Vorrichtung auch aus einer Kombination von Metall und Kunststoff hergestellt wird.The entire device can be made of plastic, for example injection molded, but can also be made of metal and finally it seems advantageous that this device is also made of a combination of metal and plastic.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der Zeichnungen erläutert. Die Zeichnungen zeigen dabei inAn embodiment of the invention is explained below with reference to the drawings. The drawings show in
Fig. 1 schaubildlich eine Ansicht auf die Oberseite der erfindungsgemäßen Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung und in Fig. 2 einen Schnitt gemäß der Linie 2 - 2 in Fig. 1.Fig. 1 shows a graphical view of the top of the sales and storage device according to the invention and in 2 shows a section along the line 2-2 in Fig. 1st
In den Zeichnungen ist eine Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvor- richtung 1 dargestellt mit einem Deckel 11. Der Deckel 11 kann vorzugsweise aus durchsichtigem Kunststoff hergestellt werden, so daß jederzeit der korrekte Inhalt der Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung 1 kontrolliert werden kann. Die Höhe der Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung 1 richtet sich nach dem größten Bohrer bzw. dem größten aufzunehmenden zylindrischen Werkzeug. Vorzugsweise ist der Deckel 11 leicht abnehmbar ausgebildet, und zwar zerstörungsfrei abnehmbar, so daß es möglich ist, wenn die Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung 1 beispielsweise in einer Schublade untergebracht wird, der Deckel abgenommen werden kann. Steht die Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung 1 frei, bewirkt der Deckel, daß der Inhalt geschützt ist und daß auch ein Verhaken, beispielsweise mit dem Ärmel eines Arbeitskittels, verhindert wird.In the drawings, a sales and storage device 1 is shown with a lid 11. The lid 11 can preferably be made of transparent plastic, so that the correct contents of the sales and storage device 1 can be checked at any time. The height of the sales and storage device 1 depends on the largest drill or the largest cylindrical tool to be accommodated. Preferably, the lid 11 is designed to be easily removable, namely non-destructively removable, so that it is possible if the sales and storage device 1 is accommodated in a drawer, for example, the lid can be removed. If the sales and storage device 1 is free, the lid has the effect that the contents are protected and that jamming, for example with the sleeve of a work coat, is prevented.
Wie die Zeichnung deutlich zeigt, weist die Verkaufs- und Auf- bewahrungsvorrichtung 1 eine ergonometrisch günstige Form dadurch auf, daß sie nach vorne geneigt ausgebildet ist, so daß dadurch ein guter Zugriff zu den einzelnen Werkzeugen sichergestellt ist.As the drawing clearly shows, the sales and storage device 1 has an ergonomically favorable shape in that it is inclined forward, so that good access to the individual tools is thereby ensured.
Während in der Zeichnung die Wände der Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung 1 als vollwandig dargestellt sind, ist es selbstverständlich möglich, daß diese Wandflächen Durchbrechungen aufweisen oder daß nur Stützen in den Eckbereichen vorgesehen sind, so daß zwar dadurch die gleiche Stabilität er- reicht wird, aber ein Einsparen an Kunststoff gleichzeitig bewirkt wird.While the walls of the sales and storage device 1 are shown as full-walled in the drawing, it is of course possible that these wall surfaces have openings or that only supports are provided in the corner areas, so that the same stability is thereby achieved, but a saving in plastic is effected at the same time.
Die Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung 1 wird vorzugsweise einteilig - z. B. im Spritzgußverfahren - hergestellt, eben- so der Deckel 11 , der dann mit der Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung 1 verbunden werden kann. Die Verkaufs- und Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung 1 weist eine Abdeckplatte 2 auf, die beispielsweise aus Kunststoff bestehen kann und in der Feinmeßkanäle 3 vorgesehen sind, wobei bei dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel drei Feinmeßkanäle 3a, 3b und 3c vorgesehen werden. In diesen Feinmeßkanälen 3a,The sales and storage device 1 is preferably in one piece - z. B. in the injection molding process - manufactured, as well as the lid 11, which can then be connected to the sales and storage device 1. The sales and storage device 1 has a cover plate 2, which can be made of plastic, for example, and in which fine measuring channels 3 are provided, three fine measuring channels 3a, 3b and 3c being provided in the exemplary embodiment shown. In these precision measuring channels 3a,
3b und 3c werden durch Anschlagkörper 6, 7 gebildete Meßlehren 5 geschaffen, wobei jeder Meßlehre 5 ein oder mehrere Aufnahmelöcher 8 zugeordnet sind. Wie aus Fig. 1 der Zeichnung zu ersehen ist, ist außerdem ein Grobmeßkanal 4 vorge- sehen, der ebenfalls durch Anschlagkörper 6, 7 gebildet, Meßlehren 5 aufweist, die den Feinmeßkanälen 3a, 3b und 3c zugeordnet sind, so daß durch Einführen des einzusetzenden Werkzeuges in den Grobmeßkanal 4 automatisch abgetastet werden kann, in welchen Feinmeßkanal 3a oder 3b oder 3c das Werkzeug eingeordnet werden muß, wobei dann in dem3b and 3c are created by stop bodies 6, 7 measuring gauges 5, with each measuring gauge 5 being assigned one or more receiving holes 8. As can be seen from FIG. 1 of the drawing, a coarse measuring channel 4 is also provided, which is also formed by stop bodies 6, 7 and has measuring gauges 5 which are assigned to the fine measuring channels 3a, 3b and 3c, so that by inserting the one to be used Tool in the coarse measuring channel 4 can be automatically scanned, in which fine measuring channel 3a or 3b or 3c the tool must be arranged, in which case
Feinmeßkanal, beispielsweise 3b, durch die dort vorgesehenen Meßlehren 5 dieses zylindrische Werkzeug den zugeordneten Aufnahmelöchern 8 zugeordnet werden kann und dann durch Entnahme aus dem Feinmeßkanal 3 in das zugeordnete Aufnahmeloch 8 eingeführt werden kann.Feinmeßkanal, for example 3b, through the gauges 5 provided there, this cylindrical tool can be assigned to the associated receiving holes 8 and then inserted into the assigned receiving hole 8 by removal from the Feinmeßkanal 3.
Wie aus der Zeichnung zu entnehmen, schließen sich an die Aufnahmelöcher 8 Köcher 10 an, die über den größten Teil ihrer Länge vollwandig ausgebildet sind und die im oberen Bereich einen größeren Innendurchmesser als im unteren Bereich aufweisen können, wobei beispielsweise der Innendurchmesser im oberen Bereich 0,5 mm größer als der Nenndurchmesser des Aufnahmeloches 8 und im unteren Bereich der Innendurchmesser etwa 0,2 mm größer als der Nenndurchmesser des Auf- nahmeloches 8 ist. In Fig. 2 ist erkennbar, daß die Köcher 10 über den größten Teil ihrer Länge vollwandig ausgebildet sind. Nur im unteren Bereich sind bei der Darstellung gemäß Fig. 2 Schlitze vorgesehen. In gleicher Weise ist es aber auch möglich, die Köcher durch gitterförmige, in Längsrichtung der Köcher verlaufende Streifen herzustellen, wobei hier wiederum anAs can be seen from the drawing, the receptacle holes 8 are followed by quivers 10 which are formed with full walls over most of their length and which can have a larger inner diameter in the upper region than in the lower region, the inner diameter in the upper region being 0, for example .5 mm larger than the nominal diameter of the receiving hole 8 and in the lower region the inner diameter is approximately 0.2 mm larger than the nominal diameter of the receiving hole 8. In Fig. 2 it can be seen that the quiver 10 are formed over most of their length full-walled. Only in the lower area are slots provided in the illustration according to FIG. 2. In the same way, however, it is also possible to produce the quiver by means of lattice-shaped strips running in the longitudinal direction of the quiver, here again on
Kunstststoffmaterial bei der Herstellung der Verkaufs- und Auf- bewahrungsvorrichtung 1 gespart wird, andererseits gleichzeitig eine gute Führung des Bohrers aber sichergestellt ist und schließlich das Gewicht der Vorrichtung entsprechend verringert werden kann. Der Übergang von der Abdeckplatte 2 in das Aufnahmeloch 8 und damit in den Köcher 10 ist angefast, abgerundet oder abgekantet, so daß hier eine trichterförmige Gestaltung geschaffen wird, die das Einführen des zylindrischen Werkzeuges in das zugeordnete Aufnahmeloch 8 und den zugeordneten Köcher 10 erleichtert.Plastic material in the manufacture of sales and order preservation device 1 is saved, on the other hand, however, good guidance of the drill is ensured and finally the weight of the device can be reduced accordingly. The transition from the cover plate 2 in the receiving hole 8 and thus in the quiver 10 is chamfered, rounded or chamfered, so that here a funnel-shaped design is created which facilitates the insertion of the cylindrical tool into the associated receiving hole 8 and the associated quiver 10.
Die Figuren zeigen weiterhin, daß den Feinmeßkanälen 3a und 3b nicht jeweils jeder Meßlehre 5 ein Aufnahmeloch 8 zugeordnet ist, so wie dies bei der Darstellung für den Feinmeßkanal 3c der Fall ist, sondern den Feinmeßkanälen 3a und 3b sind je- weils mehrere Aufnahmelöcher zugeordnet, so z. B. dem Feinmeßkanal 3a drei Aufnahmelöcher 8a, 8b, 8c und dem Feinmeßkanal 3b nur zwei Aufnahmelöcher 8a und 8b für eine Bohrergröße. Hierdurch wird also ein größerer Vorrat geschaffen und beim Kauf der zylindrischen Werkzeuge, z. B. der Bohrer, sofort berücksichtigt, welche Bohrer einem höheren Verschleiß oder Zerstörungsanfälligkeit oder Verlustanfälligkeit unterworfen sind.The figures further show that each measuring gauge 5 is not assigned a receiving hole 8 to the fine measuring channels 3a and 3b, as is the case for the fine measuring channel 3c, but several fine holes are assigned to the fine measuring channels 3a and 3b, so z. B. the Feinmeßkanal 3a three receiving holes 8a, 8b, 8c and the Feinmeßkanal 3b only two receiving holes 8a and 8b for a drill size. This creates a larger stock and when buying the cylindrical tools, e.g. B. the drill, immediately takes into account which drills are subject to greater wear or susceptibility to destruction or susceptibility to loss.
Gemäß der Erfindung dient also die Verkaufs- und Aufbewah- rungsvorrichtung einerseits als Verpackung beim Verkauf der zylindrischen Werkzeuge, andererseits als Bereitstellungsvorrichtung bei der Durchführung von Arbeiten, beispielsweise mit Bohrern. According to the invention, the sales and storage device thus serves on the one hand as packaging when selling the cylindrical tools, and on the other hand as a provision device when carrying out work, for example with drills.
