Gegenstand der Erfindung ist ein Näh-Zubehörkasten gemäss Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a sewing accessory box according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Näh-Zubehörkästen dienen zur Aufbewahrung der Nähutensilien, wie Ober- und Unterfadenspulen, Nähfüsse und allenfalls weitere für die Bedienung der Nähmaschine benötigte Werkzeuge. Solche Zubehörkästen sind seit vielen Jahren in unterschiedlichen Ausführungen bekannt. Die Zubehörkästen bilden meistens einen Teil des Koffers, in dem die Nähmaschine bei Nichtgebrauch aufbewahrt wird.Sewing accessories boxes are used to store the sewing utensils, such as upper and lower thread bobbins, sewing feet and any other tools needed to operate the sewing machine. Such accessory boxes are known for many years in different versions. The accessory boxes usually form part of the suitcase in which the sewing machine is stored when not in use.

Aus dem US-Design Patent Nr. 249,947 ist ein solcher Koffer bekannt, der zwei Teile umfasst, nämlich einen den hinteren Teil der Nähmaschine aufnehmenden und einen den Vorderteil aufnehmenden Kastenteil. Im rückwärtigen Kastenteil sind auf festmontierten Haltemitteln die Nähutensilien aufgesteckt oder eingelegt. Dieser bekannte Nähutensilienkoffer kann nur durch Verpacken der Nähmaschine zusammen mit dem zweiten Kofferteil geschlossen werden. Er ist zudem durch ein Gelenk mit der Nähmaschine verbunden und kann dadurch das Arbeiten an der Nähmaschine behindern.From US-Design Patent No. 249,947, such a case is known, which comprises two parts, namely a receiving the rear part of the sewing machine and a front part receiving box part. In the rear box part, the sewing utensils are attached or inserted on firmly mounted holding means. This known Nähutensilienkoffer can only by packing the Sewing machine can be closed together with the second case part. He is also connected by a hinge with the sewing machine and can hinder the work on the sewing machine.

Aus der Schweizer Patentschrift 257090 ist eine transportable Nähzeug-Aufbewahrungsvorrichtung in Gestalt eines Koffers bekannt. Der Koffer kann auf einer der Schmalseiten stehend geöffnet werden und gibt so die im Innern angeordneten bzw. auf entsprechenden Aufnahmedornen gelagerten Spulen und andere Utensilien frei. Die Aufnahme für die Utensilien, insbesondere für die Spulen, sind vorgegeben, und es besteht keine Möglichkeit einer individuellen Aufteilung oder Erweiterung.Swiss Patent Specification 257090 discloses a portable sewing machine storage device in the form of a suitcase. The suitcase can be opened standing on one of the narrow sides and thus releases the coils and other utensils mounted inside or mounted on corresponding mandrels. The receptacle for the utensils, in particular for the coils, are given, and there is no possibility of individual division or expansion.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist die Schaffung eines Näh-Zubehörkastens, der sowohl als Teil des Nähmaschinenkoffers dienen als auch als unabhängig benutzbarer Koffer mit Türen verwendet werden kann. Eine weitere Aufgabe besteht darin, die Aufnahmen im Kasten derart auszubilden, damit die darin verstauten Teile sich während des Transports nicht lösen, d.h. festgehalten werden, jedoch bei Bedarf einzeln leicht entnommen werden können.Object of the present invention is to provide a sewing accessory box, which serve both as part of the Nähmaschinenenkoffers and can be used as independently usable case with doors. Another object is to form the receptacles in the box so that the parts stored therein do not come loose during transport, i. but can be easily removed individually if necessary.

Gelöst werden diese Aufgaben durch einen Näh-Zubehörkasten gemäss den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1.These objects are achieved by a sewing accessory box according to the features of patent claim 1.

Der erfindungsgemässe Näh-Zubehörkasten kann an zweckmässiger Stelle während des Nähens neben oder hinter der Nähmaschine aufgestellt werden und die darin gelagerten Utensilien lassen sich jederzeit aus den Aufnahmen entnehmen. Sie sind durch geeignete Mittel innerhalb der Aufnahme festgehalten und lassen sich nur durch vorangehendes Auslösen eines entsprechenden Lösemechanismus oder durch eine entsprechende Schwenkbewegung entnehmen. Die erfindungsgemässen Aufnahmen lassen die auf den Nähfüsschen angebrachten Nummern und Bezeichnungen sichtbar erscheinen. Ebenso kann die Menge und die Farbe des auf den Spulen vorhandenen Fadens von vorn direkt eingesehen werden. Der Näh-Zubehörkasten kann aufgehängt auch als Wandkasten verwendet werden. Es ist möglich, den Näh-Zubehörkasten nicht nur in der Gebrauchstellung aufzubewahren, sondern er kann ohne weiteres umgelegt werden, ohne dass dadurch Unordnung in seinem Innern entsteht. Die Unterfadenspulen werden durch elastisch ausgebildete Haltemittel positioniert gehalten und können auf Tastendruck für die Entnahme freigegeben werden, ohne dass sie aus der Aufnahme herausfallen. Andere Utensilien, wie Nähfüsse, sind an geeignet ausgebildeten Haken aufgehängt und lassen sich durch eine Schwenkbewegung aus der Haltestellung in die Entnahmestellung bringen.The sewing accessory box according to the invention can be placed at an appropriate point during sewing next to or behind the sewing machine and the utensils stored therein can be removed from the recordings at any time. They are held by suitable means within the receptacle and can be removed only by prior release of a corresponding release mechanism or by a corresponding pivoting movement. The recordings according to the invention make the numbers and designations on the sewing feet appear visible. Similarly, the amount and color of the thread present on the bobbins can be viewed directly from the front. The sewing accessory box can also be hung as a wall box. It is possible to store the sewing accessory box not only in the use position, but it can be easily folded without causing disorder in its interior. The bobbins are held by elastically formed holding means positioned and can be released at the touch of a button for removal without falling out of the recording. Other utensils, such as presser feet are suspended on suitably trained hooks and can be brought by a pivoting movement from the holding position into the removal position.

Die Aufnahmemittel sind nicht fest im Kasten angeordnet, sondern sie können bei Bedarf ausgetauscht werden. Sie sind auf in den Kasten einschieb- und dort verrastbaren Racks angeordnet. Dadurch lässt sich das Innere des Näh-Zubehörkastens jederzeit individuell an die eigenen Bedürfnisse anpassen. Der mindestens eine in den Boden oder die Rückwand des Zubehörkastens integrierbare Fuss erlaubt einen sicheren Stand des sehr schlank ausgeführten Kastens auf einem Tisch. Der Näh-Zubehörkasten kann an der Hinterseite der Nähmaschine befestigt werden, wenn die Maschine nicht benutzt wird, oder innerhalb des Koffers untergebracht werden. Der Kasten kann in vorteilhafter Weise an der Rückseite der Nähmaschine arretiert werden.The receiving means are not fixed in the box, but they can be replaced if necessary. They are arranged in the box einschieb- and there latchable racks. As a result, the interior of the sewing accessory box can be individually adapted to your own needs at any time. The at least one leg, which can be integrated into the bottom or the rear wall of the accessory box, allows the very slim box on a table to stand securely. The sewing accessory box can be attached to the rear of the sewing machine when the machine is not in use or housed inside the case. The box can be locked in an advantageous manner to the back of the sewing machine.

Ein mit Bezugszeichen 1 bezeichneter Näh-Zubehörkasten, kurz Kasten 1, umfasst einen Boden 3, an den sich zwei schmale Seitenwände 5, eine Rückwand 7 sowie eine aus zwei Türen 9 und 11 gebildete Vorderwand 13 anschliessen. Oben ist der Kasten 1 durch eine Decke 15 geschlossen. Unterhalb des Bodens 3 oder teilweise in diesen eingelassen sind zwei um im wesentlichen vertikale Achsen schwenkbare Standfüsse 17 befestigt. In vollständig ausgeschwenkter Stellung (Figur 3) liegen die Standfüsse 17 im wesentlichen rechtwinklig zur Rückwand 7 des Kasten 1. Alternativ kann der mindestens eine Standfuss 17 auch um eine horizontale Achse schwenkbar sein, wobei diese Achse in einem Abstand zum Boden 3 liegt, so dass ein Ausschwenken in die Stützstellung möglich ist (keine Abb.). Die beiden Türen 9 und 11 sind je um eine im wesentlichen vertikal liegende Achse A schwenkbar gelagert. Entsprechend an den Türen 9 und 11 ausgebildete Schwenkbolzen 19, welche in der Achse A liegen, sind in der Decke 15 und im Boden 3 angelenkt. Je eine Ausnehmung 21 oder ein Griff an den Türen 9 und 11 ermöglichen das Öffnen der letzteren. Ein Verschluss, der die Türen 9,11 in geschlossenem Zustand festhält, ist nicht sichtbar.A sewing accessory box designated by reference numeral 1, box 1 for short, comprises a floor 3 to which two narrow side walls 5, a rear wall 7 and a front wall 13 formed from two doors 9 and 11 join. Above the box 1 is closed by a ceiling 15. Below the bottom 3 or partially embedded in this two pivotable about substantially vertical axes feet 17 are attached. In fully pivoted position (Figure 3), the feet 17 are substantially perpendicular to the rear wall 7 of the box 1. Alternatively, the at least one stand 17 may be pivotable about a horizontal axis, said axis is at a distance from the bottom 3, so that a swinging into the support position is possible (not pictured). The two doors 9 and 11 are each pivotally mounted about a substantially vertical axis A. According to the doors 9 and 11 formed pivot pin 19, which lie in the axis A are in the ceiling 15 and hinged in the bottom 3. Depending on a recess 21 or a handle on the doors 9 and 11 allow the opening of the latter. A closure that holds the doors 9,11 in the closed state is not visible.

Figur 4 zeigt den Kasten 1 mit geöffneten Türen 9 und 11 und gibt den Einblick ins Innere frei. Über dem Boden 3 kann eine Schublade 23 zum losen Aufbewahren weiterer Teile eingesetzt sein. Darüber befinden sich auf der linken Seite beispielsweise Tablare 25 und eine weitere Schublade 27. Im Beispiel auf der rechten Seite des durch eine vertikale Trennwand 29 aufgeteilten Kastens 1 sind an den seitlichen Begrenzungswänden im wesentlichen horizontal verlaufende Schienen 31 befestigt oder angespritzt, auf denen rackartig ausgebildete Aufnahmen 33, z.B. für Unterfadenspulen 39, und Aufnahmen 35 für Nähfüsschen 51 und andere beim Nähen benötigte Teile eingeschoben sind. Die nur beispielsweise dargestellten beiden Aufnahmen 33 und 35 für Unterfadenspulen 39 und Nähfüsschen 51 weisen seitlich Führungselemente 37 (Nuten) auf, welche in die Schienen 31 einschieb- und vorzugsweise darin verrastbar sind.
Die Aufnahme 33 für Unterfadenspulen 39 (vgl. Figuren 5 und 6) weisen einen C-förmigen Querschnitt auf, wobei der Abstand zwischen dem unteren (längeren) und elastisch ausgebildeten Schenkel 41 und dem oberen kürzeren Schenkel 43 nur wenig grösser ist als der Durchmesser der Unterfadenspulen 39. Am vorderen Ende des oberen Schenkels 43 ist eine parallel zur Achse der Unterfadenspule 39 verlaufende Rippe 45 ausgebildet, welche die Unterfadenspule 39 durch radial auf deren Peripherie wirkende Kräfte in eingeschobener Stellung festhält bzw. daran hindert, nach vorne zu rollen. Der untere Schenkel 41 ist vorzugsweise geneigt zur Horizontalen ausgebildet, und an seinem vorderen Ende kann eine Taste 47 angeformt sein, deren rückwärtige Kante 49 als Anschlag für die Unterfadenspule 39 dient, wenn diese durch Aufbringen einer Kraft F auf die Taste 47 aus der verrasteten Halteposition (Figur 5) in die Entnahmeposition (Figur 6) gerollt ist.
Figure 4 shows the box 1 with the doors 9 and 11 open and gives the insight into the interior. Above the bottom 3, a drawer 23 can be used for loose storage of other parts. In the example on the right side of the divided by a vertical partition 29 box 1 are attached to the lateral boundary walls substantially horizontally extending rails 31 or molded on which rack-like design Receivers 33, eg for bobbins 39, and 35 receptacles for sewing feet 51 and other parts needed for sewing are inserted. The only two illustrated receptacles 33 and 35 for bobbins 39 and sewing feet 51 have laterally guide elements 37 (grooves), which in the rails 31 einschieb- and preferably are latched therein.
The receptacle 33 for bobbins 39 (see Figures 5 and 6) have a C-shaped cross section, wherein the distance between the lower (longer) and elastically formed leg 41 and the upper shorter leg 43 is only slightly larger than the diameter of Unterfadenspulen 39. At the front end of the upper leg 43 a parallel to the axis of the lower thread bobbin 39 extending rib 45 is formed, which holds the lower thread bobbin 39 by radially acting on the periphery forces in the retracted position or prevents it from rolling forward. The lower leg 41 is preferably formed inclined to the horizontal, and at its front end a key 47 may be formed, the rear edge 49 serves as a stop for the lower thread bobbin 39, if this by applying a force F on the key 47 from the latched holding position (Figure 5) in the removal position (Figure 6) is rolled.

Jede der Aufnahme 33 enthält eine Mehrzahl von nebeneinander angeordneten einzeln bedienbaren Aufnahmestellen für je eine Unterfadenspule 39.Each of the receptacle 33 contains a plurality of juxtaposed individually operable receiving points for each bobbin 39.

Zum Stauen von Nähfüsschen 51 (Figuren 7 und 8) umfasst die Aufnahme 35 mehrere beabstandet liegende, nach vorne gerichtete Laschen 53 und jeweils über dem Zwischenraum zwischen je zwei Laschen 53 und in vertikalem Abstand dazu ausgebildete Rückhaltenocken 55. An den Enden der Laschen 53 sind nach oben gerichtete Nasen 57 und an den Rückhaltenocken 55 nach unten gerichtete Buckel 59 ausgebildet. Die Buckel 59 greifen von oben bei eingehängtem Nähfüsschen 51 in die am oberen Schaftende befindliche Zentrierbohrung 58 ein. Die Nähfüsschen 51 liegen mit ihren seitlich abstehenden Haltebolzen 61 auf den Laschen 53 auf. Die Nähfüsschen 51 können so nicht aus der Aufnahme 35 herausrutschen. Um ein Nähfüsschen 51 aus dem Kasten 1 herausnehmen zu können, wird es im Gegenuhrzeigersinn um die Achse der seitlich abstehenden Bolzen 61 in Richtung des Pfeils P gedreht, bis der Buckel 59 aus der Zentrierbohrung 58 gleitet und die Bolzen 61 über die Nasen 57 geführt werden können.For jamming of sewing feet 51 (Figures 7 and 8), the receptacle 35 comprises a plurality of spaced, forwardly extending tabs 53 and each over the space between each two tabs 53 and at a vertical distance thereto formed retaining cam 55. At the ends of the tabs 53 are upwardly directed lugs 57 and to the retaining cam 55 downwardly directed projection 59 formed. The humps 59 engage from above with suspended Nähfüsschen 51 in the upper end of the shaft located center hole 58 a. The sewing feet 51 rest with their laterally projecting retaining bolts 61 on the tabs 53. The Nähfüsschen 51 can not slip out of the receptacle 35 so. In order to be able to take a sewing feet 51 out of the box 1, it is rotated counterclockwise about the axis of the laterally projecting pins 61 in the direction of the arrow P until the projection 59 slides out of the centering hole 58 and the pins 61 are guided over the lugs 57 can.

Je nach Ausbildung der Nähfüsschen 51 oder von zu stauenden Nähfuss-Sohlen ohne Schaft kann die Aufnahme 35 etwas von der dargestellten und beschriebenen Ausführung abweichen. Grundsätzlich aber wird das Nähfüsschen 51 durch eine Schwenkbewegung ein- bzw. ausgerastet, bevor es der Aufnahme 35 entnommen werden kann.Depending on the design of the Nähfüsschen 51 or to be stucked presser foot soles without shaft, the receptacle 35 may differ slightly from the illustrated and described embodiment. In principle, however, the sewing feet 51 is engaged or disengaged by a pivoting movement before it can be removed from the receptacle 35.

Wie bei der Aufnahme 33 für die Unterfadenspulen 39 sind auf der Aufnahme 35 für die Nähfüsschen 51 ebenfalls mehrere nebeneinander liegende Aufnahmestellen auf einem Rack ausgebildet.As in the case of the receptacle 33 for the bobbins 39, a plurality of adjacent receptacles are also formed on a rack on the receptacle 35 for the sewing feet 51.

Um die Standfläche des eine geringe Tiefe aufweisenden Kastens 1 zu vergrössern und dadurch ein Umstürzen zu vermeiden, können die beiden schwenkbaren Standfüsse 17 um ca. 90° nach hinten geschwenkt werden. Zur Erhöhung der Standfestigkeit des Kastens 1 liegt dessen Boden 3 in einem Winkel von etwas mehr als 90° zu den Oberflächen der beiden Türen 9,11.In order to increase the footprint of the low-depth box 1 and thereby avoid overturning, the two pivoting feet 17 can be pivoted by about 90 ° to the rear. To increase the stability of the box 1 whose bottom is 3 in an angle of slightly more than 90 ° to the surfaces of the two doors 9,11.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist beispielsweise an der Decke 15 ein nicht näher beschriebenes, mit einem Finger auslösbares Rastelement 63 angebracht, welches in einem entsprechend ausgebildeten Gegenstück an der Nähmaschine einrasten und den Kasten 1 bei Nichtgebrauch festhalten kann (Fig. 1).In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, for example, on the ceiling 15 a unspecified described, releasable with a finger locking element 63 is mounted, which engage in a correspondingly shaped counterpart on the sewing machine and hold the box 1 when not in use (Fig. 1).
