Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zum Auftragen von Farbe auf Flächen, insbesondere Decken und/oder Wände, mit einer Auftragwalze, die auf einem auf einen Stiel aufgesetzten Bügel drehbar gelagert ist, und mit einer der Auftragwalze zugeordneten, verschiebbar auf dem Stiel aufgenommenen Tropfenauffangschale, die eine vom Stiel durchgriffene Öffnung und einen hiervon abstehenden, den Stiel umfassenden, kürzer als der Stiel ausgebildeten Rohrstutzen aufweist und die von einer den stielseitigen Umfangsbereich der Auftragwalze umfassenden Arbeitsstellung in eine Freigabestellung, in der die Auftragwalze aus der Tropfenauffangschale herausgeschoben ist, zurückziehbar ist und umgekehrt.The invention relates to a device for applying paint to surfaces, in particular ceilings and / or walls, with an applicator roll, which is rotatably mounted on a stirrup patch on a bracket, and associated with one of the applicator roll, slidably received on the stem drip tray, the a through-struck by the handle opening and a projecting therefrom, the handle has a shorter than the handle formed pipe socket and the comprehensive by a handle side circumferential portion of the applicator roller working position in a release position in which the applicator roller is pushed out of the drip tray retractable, and vice versa ,

Eine Vorrichtung dieser Art ist aus der DE 196 11 284 A1 bekannt. Bei dieser bekannten Anordnung ist die Tropfenauffangschale entgegen der Kraft einer Rückstellfeder aus der Arbeitsstellung zurückziehbar. Die Rückstellfeder ist dabei innerhalb des als Rohr ausgebildeten Stiels angeordnet und einerseits am auftragwalzenfernen Ende des Stiels und andererseits an einer am den Stiel umfassenden Rohrstutzen befestigten, einen Schlitz des Stiels durchgreifenden Lasche abgestützt. Um eine ungewollte Rückstellung der Tropfenauffangschale zu vermeiden, ist diese in der zurückgezogenen Freigabestellung mittels einer Rasteinrichtung blockierbar. Die Rückstellfederanordnung und die Rasteinrichtung führen zu einem vergleichsweise komplizierten und aufwendigen Aufbau, ohne dass sich hieraus ein größerer Vorteil für die Handhabung ergibt. Außerdem besteht die Gefahr, dass die Tropfenauffangschale im Falle einer unbeabsichtigten Auslösung der Rasteinrichtung unkontrolliert in die Arbeitsstellung zurückschnellt. Die bekannte Anordnung erweist sich daher als nicht einfach und sinnfällig genug.A device of this type is known from DE 196 11 284 A1. In this known arrangement, the drip tray is retractable against the force of a return spring from the working position. The return spring is arranged within the stem formed as a tube and supported on the one hand on the applicator roller remote end of the stem and on the other hand to a comprehensive on the stem pipe socket, a slot of the stem sweeping tab. To an unwanted provision of the drip tray to avoid this is blocked in the retracted release position by means of a locking device. The return spring arrangement and the locking device lead to a comparatively complicated and expensive construction, without resulting in a greater advantage for handling. In addition, there is a risk that the drip tray in the event of unintentional release of the locking device uncontrollably jumps back into the working position. The known arrangement therefore proves to be not easy and obvious enough.

Hiervon ausgehend ist es daher die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, eine Vorrichtung gattungsgemäßer Art mit einfachen und kostengünstigen Mitteln so zu verbessern, dass eine einfache und kostengünstige Bauweise sowie eine einfache und sinnfällige Bedienbarkeit gewährleistet sind.On this basis, it is therefore an object of the present invention to improve a device of the generic type with simple and inexpensive means so that a simple and inexpensive construction and a simple and obvious operation are guaranteed.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, dass die Tropfenauffangschale durch von Hand überwindbare Reibkraft selbsthaltend auf dem Stiel aufgenommen ist.This object is achieved in that the drip tray is added by self-locking by hand overcome frictional force on the stem.

Die Tropfenauffangschale kann einfach unter Überwindung der Reibkraft in jede gewünschte Position geschoben werden und hält sich anschließend reibschlüssig in der jeweiligen Position. Die Betätigung bzw. Auslösung einer Rasteinrichtung ist hier nicht erforderlich. Eine Rückstellfeder und eine Rasteinrichtung können entfallen. Die erfindungsgemäßen Maßnahmen ermöglichen daher in vorteilhafter Weise eine höchst einfache und kostengünstige Bauweise sowie eine hohe Bedienungsfreundlichkeit.The drip tray can be easily pushed overcoming the frictional force in any desired position and then holds frictionally in the respective position. The actuation or release of a locking device is not required here. A return spring and a locking device can be omitted. The measures according to the invention therefore advantageously allow a very simple and inexpensive construction and a high level of user-friendliness.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und zweckmäßige Fortbildungen der übergeordneten Maßnahmen sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben. So kann der Rohrstutzen zweckmäßig im Bereich seines hinteren Endes mit einer konischen Verengung und achsparallelen Schlitzen versehen sein. Auf diese Weise ergeben sich federnd am Stiel anliegende Laschen, welche die erwünschte Reibkraft erzeugen können. Sofern eine Verstärkung der so erzeugten Reibkraft erwünscht sein sollte, kann eine den Rohrstutzen im geschlitzten Bereich umfassende Ringfeder vorgesehen sein.Advantageous embodiments and expedient developments of the higher-level measures are specified in the subclaims. Thus, the pipe socket can be expediently provided in the region of its rear end with a conical constriction and paraxial slots. In this way, resilient lugs, which can produce the desired frictional force, result elastically on the stem. If an amplification of the frictional force thus generated should be desired, a ring spring which comprises the pipe socket in the slotted area can be provided.

Zur Vermeidung einer Leckage kann im Bereich der vom Stiel durchgriffenen Öffnung der Tropfenauffangschale ein am Stiel anliegender Abstreifring vorgesehen sein. In den meisten Fällen genügt hierzu jedoch eine satte Anlage des Innenumfangs des Rohrstutzens am Außenumfang des Stiels.To avoid leakage may be provided in the area of the stalk penetrated by the opening of the drip tray, a scraper ring abutting the stem. In most cases, however, sufficient for a whopping system of the inner circumference of the pipe socket on the outer circumference of the stem.

In weiterer Fortbildung der übergeordneten Maßnahmen kann auf dem Rohrstutzen ein als Griff ausgebildeter Schrumpfschlauch aufgenommen sein. Hierdurch lassen sich Verletzungsgefahren etc. wirksam vermeiden und zuverlässige Anpresskräfte aufbringen.In a further development of the higher-level measures can be added to the pipe socket designed as a handle shrink tube. As a result, it is possible to effectively avoid injury risks, etc., and to apply reliable contact forces.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und zweckmäßige Fortbildungen der übergeordneten Maßnahmen sind in den restlichen Unteransprüchen angegeben und aus der nachstehenden Beispielsbeschreibung an Hand der Zeichnung näher entnehmbar.Further advantageous embodiments and expedient developments of the parent measures are specified in the remaining subclaims and from the following description of an example with reference to the drawing closer.

Die aus Figur 1 entnehmbare Farbauftragvorrichtung besteht aus einer einen aus textilem Material bestehenden Mantel aufweisenden Auftragwalze 1, die in an sich bekannter Weise auf einem durch einen gebogenen Rundstab etc. gebildeten Bügel 2 drehbar gelagert ist, der am vorderen Ende eines stabförmigen Stiels 3 befestigt ist, beispielsweise mit einem Gewindestück in eine stielseitige Gewindemuffe eingeschraubt ist. Der Stiel 3 ergibt einen großen Aktionsradius. Mit Hilfe des Stiels 3 ist es beispielsweise möglich, Zimmerdecken bzw. hohe Zimmerwände vom Boden aus mit einem Farbauftrag zu versehen.The removable from Figure 1 paint application device consists of a one of textile material existing coat having applicator roll 1, which is rotatably mounted in a conventional manner on a bracket formed by a round rod, etc. 2, which is attached to the front end of a rod-shaped stem 3 For example, is screwed with a threaded piece in a handle-side threaded sleeve. The stem 3 gives a large radius of action. With the help of the stem 3, it is for example possible to provide ceilings or high room walls from the bottom with a paint job.

Bei derartigen Arbeiten können sich in Folge der Rotation der Auftragwalze 1 und des Anpressdrucks der Auftragwalze 1 von dieser abgeschleuderte Tropfen ergeben. Um diese aufzufangen und damit eine Verschmutzung der Umgebung zu vermeiden, ist der Auftragwalze 1 eine als ganzes mit 4 bezeichnete Spritzschutzeinrichtung zugeordnet.In such work, as a result of the rotation of the applicator roll 1 and the contact pressure of the applicator roll 1 can result from this thrown-off drops. To collect these and thus avoid contamination of the environment, the applicator roller 1 is assigned a designated as a whole with 4 splash guard.

Die Spritzschutzeinrichtung 4 enthält eine verschiebbar auf dem Stiel 3 aufgenommene Tropfenauffangwanne 5, die gemäß Doppelpfeil 6 von einer hier nicht näher dargestellten, den stielseitigen Umfangsbereich der Auftragwalze 1 umfassenden Arbeitsstellung in die der Figur 1 zu Grunde liegende Freigabestellung, in der die Auftragwalze 1 aus der Tropfenauffangschale 5 herausgeschoben ist, zurückziehbar ist und umgekehrt. Während des Auftragens von Farbe auf einen Untergrund befindet sich die Tropfenauffangschale in der den stielseitigen Umfangsbereich der Auftragwalze 1 mit ausreichend Spiel umfassenden Arbeitsstellung. Zum Eintauchen der Auftragwalze 1 in einen Farbvorrat wird die Tropfenauffangschale 5 in die der Figur 1 zu Grunde liegende Freigabestellung gebracht.The splash guard 4 includes a slidably received on the stem 3 drip tray 5, according to double arrow 6 from a not shown here, the handle-side peripheral portion of the applicator roll 1 comprehensive working position in the Figure 1 underlying basis release position in which the applicator roll 1 from the Drip tray 5 is pushed out, retractable and vice versa. During the application of paint to a substrate is the drip tray in the handle-side peripheral portion of the applicator roll 1 with sufficient clearance comprehensive working position. For dipping the application roller 1 in a color supply, the drip tray 5 is brought into the release position underlying the figure 1.

In jeder Position ist die Tropfenauffangschale 5 durch Reibkraft auf dem Stiel so fixiert, dass sich keine selbsttätige Verstellung ergibt. Zusätzliche Fixiermittel sind nicht erforderlich. Zum Verstellen der Tropfenauffangschale 5 wird diese unter Überwindung der Reibkraft gegenüber dem Stiel 3 verschoben. Die Anordnung ist so zu treffen, dass die Reibkraft durch manuelle Betätigung überwindbar ist.In each position, the drip tray 5 is fixed by friction on the stem so that there is no automatic adjustment. Additional fixatives are not required. To adjust the drip tray 5 this is moved overcoming the frictional force against the stem 3. The arrangement is to be made so that the frictional force can be overcome by manual operation.

Die Tropfenauffangschale 5 besitzt, wie die Figuren 2 und 3 zeigen, eine bodenseitige, vom Stiel 3 durchgreifbare Öffnung 7. Vom Rand der Öffnung 7 steht ein an die Tropfenauffangschale 5 angeformter Rohrstutzen 8 nach unten ab, durch den der Stiel 3 ebenfalls durchsteckbar ist. Der Rohrstutzen 8 ist nur einige Zentimeter lang und damit wesentlich kürzer als der Stiel 3, so dass sich ausreichend Verschiebefreiheitsgrad ergibt. Im dargestellten Beispiel ist ein als Verlängerung des Rohrstutzens 8 ausgebildeter, in den Innenraum der Tropfenauffangschale 1 vorspringender, die Öffnung 7 umfassender Bund 9 vorgesehen, der den Öffnungsbereich versteifen kann.The drip tray 5 has, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, a bottom-side, tangible by the handle 3 opening 7. From the edge of the opening 7 is an integrally formed on the drip tray 5 Pipe socket 8 down from, through which the stem 3 is also durchsteckbar. The pipe socket 8 is only a few inches long and thus much shorter than the stem 3, so that there is sufficient degree of freedom of movement. In the example shown, a trained as an extension of the pipe socket 8, projecting into the interior of the drip tray 1, the opening 7 comprehensive collar 9 is provided which can stiffen the opening area.

Der Bund 9 kann mit in Längsrichtung der Tropfenauffangschale 5 fluchend einander gegenüberliegenden, nach oben offenen Kerben 21 versehen sein, in die bei hochgeschobener Tropfenauffangschale 5 der die Auftragwalze 1 tragende Bügel 2 mit einem dem Stiel 3 benachbarten Bereich eingreifen kann, wie beispielsweise aus Figur 4 ersichtlich ist. Hierdurch wird eine gegenseitige Verdrehbarkeit zwischen Auftragwalze 1 und Tropfenauffangschale 5 verhindert, was eine besonders hohe Zuverlässigkeit und Sicherheit gewährleistet.The collar 9 can be provided with creases 21 which are opposite one another in the longitudinal direction of the drip tray 5 and open upwards, in which, when the drip tray 5 is pushed up, the bracket 2 carrying the applicator roller 1 can engage with an area adjacent to the handle 3, for example from FIG is apparent. As a result, a mutual rotatability between application roller 1 and drip tray 5 is prevented, which ensures a particularly high reliability and safety.

Zur Erzielung der erwünschten Reibkraft zwischen Stiel 3 und Rohrstutzen 8 kann dieser mit seinem Innenumfang zumindest auf einem Teil seiner Länge mit strammem Sitz am Außenumfang des Stiels 3 anliegend ausgebildet sein. Zweckmäßig kann zur Erzielung der gewünschten Reibkraft jedoch eine Federeinrichtung vorgesehen sein, die eine federnde, gegenseitige Anlage ergibt, so dass auch bei robusten Einsatzverhältnissen eine hohe Störungsfreiheit gewährleistet ist.To achieve the desired frictional force between stem 3 and pipe socket 8, this can be formed with its inner circumference at least on a part of its length with a tight fit on the outer circumference of the stem 3 fitting. Appropriately, however, a spring device may be provided to achieve the desired frictional force, which results in a resilient, mutual abutment, so that a high degree of freedom is ensured even with robust conditions.

Im dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel ist der Rohrstutzen 8 hierzu im Bereich seines hinteren Endes mit einem konisch verengten Ansatz 10 versehen. Im Bereich dieses konisch verengten Ansatzes 10 sind achsparallele Schlitze 11 vorgesehen, so dass sich durch diese begrenzte Federlaschen 12 ergeben. Sofern die Federlaschen 12 die erwünschte Reibkraft nicht ergeben sollten, kann zusätzlich eine sie umfassende Ringfeder 13 vorgesehen sein. Diese kann auch nachträglich eingesetzt werden, sofern die Federlaschen 12 im Laufe der Zeit erlahmen sollten.In the illustrated embodiment, the pipe socket 8 is provided for this purpose in the region of its rear end with a conically narrowed approach 10. In the region of this conically narrowed projection 10 axially parallel slots 11 are provided, so that arise through these limited spring tabs 12. If the spring tabs 12 the desired frictional force should not give, it may be provided in addition a comprehensive ring spring 13. This can also be used later, provided that the spring tabs 12 should go out in the course of time.

Da die Tropfenauffangschale 5 nicht als Farbvorratsbehälter dient, sondern lediglich als Spritzschutz, steht innerhalb der Tropfenauffangschale 5 nur vergleichsweise wenig Farbe an, so dass keine nennenswerte Gefahr von Farbleckage über den Spalt zwischen Stiel 3 und Rohrstutzen 8 besteht. Hinzu kommt, dass der in den Innenraum der Tropfenauffangschale 5 vorspringende Bund 9 eventuell bodenseitig anstehende Farbe daran hindern kann, in den genannten Spalt überzulaufen. Der Bund 9 fungiert dementsprechend als Rückhaltewehr. Zur Erzielung einer zusätzlichen Sicherheit kann im Bereich der Öffnung 7 ein Abstreifring 14 angeordnet sein, der unter Vermeidung eines Durchlaßspalts am Stiel 3 anliegen kann. Ein derartiger Abstreifring 14 kann gleichzeitig die erwünschte Reibkraft erzeugen bzw. verstärken.Since the drip tray 5 does not serve as an ink reservoir, but only as a splash guard, is within the drip tray 5 only comparatively little color, so that no significant risk of color leakage over the gap between the stem 3 and pipe socket 8. In addition, the protruding into the interior of the drip tray 5 collar 9 may possibly prevent the bottom side pending color from overflowing into said gap. The federal government 9 acts accordingly as a retention weir. To achieve additional security, a scraper ring 14 can be arranged in the region of the opening 7, which can rest against the handle 3 while avoiding a passage gap. Such a scraper ring 14 can simultaneously generate or enhance the desired frictional force.

Der einteilig mit der Tropfenauffangschale 1 ausgebildete Rohrstutzen 8 kann als Griff ausgebildet sein. Im dargestellten Beispiel ist auf den Rohrstutzen 8 ein vorzugsweise als Schrumpfschlauch ausgebildeter Überwurf 15 aufgeschoben, der als Griff ausgebildet ist und gleichzeitig radiale Spannkräfte ausüben kann, durch die die Federlaschen 12 zur Erzielung der gewünschten Reibkraft an den Stiel 3 andrückbar sind, so dass auf die oben erwähnte Ringfeder 13 u. U. verzichtet werden kann. Durch den Überwurf 15 werden zudem Gefahrenbereiche in Form des geschlitzten Ansatzes 10 und dergleichen abgedeckt. Die Länge des Überwurfs 15 ist so bemessen, dass er mit einer Hand gut erfassbar ist.The one-piece formed with the drip tray 1 pipe socket 8 may be formed as a handle. In the example shown, a preferably designed as a shrink tube sleeve 15 is pushed onto the pipe socket 8, which is designed as a handle and can exert radial clamping forces by which the spring tabs 12 to achieve the desired frictional force to the stem 3 are pressed, so that on the above-mentioned annular spring 13 u. U. can be omitted. By the cover 15 also danger areas in the form of the slotted neck 10 and the like are covered. The length of the cover 15 is dimensioned so that it is easily detectable with one hand.

Es genügt daher eine mindestens einer Handbreite entsprechende Länge.It is therefore sufficient for at least one hand width corresponding length.

Das die Tropfenauffangschale 5 mit angeformtem Rohrstutzen 8 bildende Bauteil kann zweckmäßig als Kunststoff-Spritzgußformling hergestellt werden. Der Überwurf 15 wird nachträglich angesetzt. Dabei kann ein strammer Sitz vorgesehen sein, so dass sich eine Klemmhalterung ergibt. Der Überwurf 15 kann aber auch durch Kleben etc. befestigt sein.The drip tray 5 with integrally formed pipe socket 8 forming component can be conveniently prepared as a plastic injection molding. The union 15 is added later. In this case, a tight fit can be provided, so that there is a clamp. But the cap 15 can also be attached by gluing etc.

Um die Auftragwalze 1 vor einem Austrocknen während längerer Arbeitspausen bzw. -Unterbrechungen zu schützen, kann der Tropfenauffangwanne 5, wie aus Figur 4 erkennbar ist, eine lösbar anbringbare Abdeckkappe 22 zugeordnet sein, die bei Bedarf auf die Tropfenauffangschale 5 aufgesetzt wird. Dabei ergibt sich ein geschlossenes Gehäuse mit einem die Auftragwalze 1 aufnehmenden Innenraum 23, so dass die Auftragwalze 1 über einen längeren Zeitraum nicht austrocknen kann. Dies erspart ein Auswaschen der Auftragwalze 1 bei jeder Arbeitsunterbrechung.In order to protect the application roller 1 from drying out during prolonged work breaks or interruptions, the drip tray 5, as can be seen from Figure 4, be associated with a releasably attachable cap 22, which is placed on the drip tray 5, if necessary. This results in a closed housing with the application roller 1 receiving interior 23, so that the applicator roller 1 can not dry out over a longer period. This saves a washing out of the applicator roll 1 at each work interruption.

Die Abdeckkappe 22 ist zweckmäßig, ähnlich wie bei im Haushalt Verwendung findenden Frischhaltedosen, durch einen Steck- oder Schnappverschluss an der Tropfenauffangschale 5 lösbar festlegbar. Diese ist im dargestellten Beispiel hierzu mit einer nach außen vorspringenden, umlaufenden Randleiste 24 versehen. Die Abdeckkappe 22 besitzt eine im Querschnitt klauenförmige, umlaufende Randleiste 25, in welche die Randleiste 24 der Tropfenauffangschale 5 einrastbar ist. Um den Rastvorgang zu erleichtern, können die Tropfenauffangschale 5 und/oder die Abdeckkappe 22 aus einem elastisch biegsamen Material bestehen. Beide Teile, die nach Art von Unter- und Oberteil eines zweiteiligen Gehäuses zusammenwirken, können als Kunststoff-Spritzgußformlinge hergestellt werden.The cap 22 is useful, similar to the use of fresh food cans found in the household, releasably secured by a plug or snap on the drip tray 5. This is provided in the example shown for this purpose with an outwardly projecting, circumferential edge strip 24. The cap 22 has a claw-shaped in cross section, circumferential edge strip 25, in which the edge strip 24 of the drip tray 5 can be latched. To facilitate the latching process, the drip tray 5 and / or the cap 22 may be made of an elastically flexible material. Both parts, in the manner of subs Upper part of a two-part housing cooperate, can be produced as plastic injection moldings.

Die Auftragwalze 1 ist in der der Figur 4 zugrunde liegenden Stellung in die Tropfenauffangschale 5 eingefahren und damit durch den Eingriff des Bügels 2 in eine der Kerben 21 gegen Verdrehen geschützt, so dass ein Kontakt mit der Innenwand des sie aufnehmenden Gehäuses unterbleibt.The application roller 1 is retracted in the figure 4 underlying position in the drip tray 5 and thus protected by the engagement of the bracket 2 in one of the notches 21 against rotation, so that contact with the inner wall of the receiving housing is omitted.

Zur Erzielung einer großen Steifigkeit der Tropfenauffangschale 5 ist diese, wie die Figuren 1 und 3 anschaulich zeigen, auf ihrer unteren Außenseite mit vom Rohrstutzen 8 weglaufenden Versteifungsrippen 16 versehen. In den seitlichen Randbereichen können, wie aus Figur 3 ersichtlich ist, im Innenraum der Tropfenauffangschale 5 vorgesehene Querrippen 17 vorgesehen sein. Diese sind jeweils mit einer mittigen, nach oben offenen mit den Kerben 21 des Bunds 9 fluchtenden Kerbe 26 versehen, in die der Bügel 2 in der Arbeitsstellung eingreifen kann. Die Oberseite der Querrippen 17 kann einen dem Boden der Tropfenauffangschale 5 folgenden oder hieran angepassten Verlauf aufweisen. Im Bereich ihres oberen Rands ist die Tropfenauffangschale 5 mit einer umlaufenden Randleiste 18 versehen.To achieve a high rigidity of the drip tray 5, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, it is provided with stiffening ribs 16 running away from the pipe socket 8 on its lower outer side. As can be seen from FIG. 3, lateral ribs 17 provided in the interior of the drip tray 5 can be provided in the lateral edge regions. These are each provided with a central, upwardly open with the notches 21 of the collar 9 aligned notch 26 into which the bracket 2 can engage in the working position. The upper side of the transverse ribs 17 may have a profile following the bottom of the drip tray 5 or adapted thereto. In the region of its upper edge, the drip tray 5 is provided with a peripheral skirt 18.

Die Figur 5 zeigt ein weiteres nützliches Zubehör zur Tropfenauffangwanne 5. Bei der Anordnung gemäß Figur 5 ist auf wenigstens eine der inneren Querrippen 17 ein Reiter 27 aufgesteckt, der am oberen Rand eine mittige Kerbe 28 aufweist, in welche der die Auftragwalze 1 tragende Bügel 2 mit seinem dem Stiel 3 zustrebenden Bereich in der Arbeitsstellung, das heißt bei an die Auftragwalze 1 angestellter Tropfenauffangwanne 5, eingreift. Der Reiter 27 bildet einen Anschlag, der bewirkt, dass die Auftragwalze 1 in der Arbeitsstellung weiter aus der Tropfenauffangwanne 5 herausragt, als bei Nichtgebrauch des Reiters 27, wie aus einem Vergleich der in Figur 5 mit einer durchgezogenen Linie einzeichneten Position der Auftragwalze 1 bei Gebrauch des Reiters 27 mit der in Figur 5 mit einer unterbrochenen Linie angedeuteten Position der Auftragwalze 1 ohne Gebrauch des Reiters 27 gut erkennbar ist.FIG. 5 shows another useful accessory for the drip tray 5. In the arrangement according to FIG. 5, a rider 27 is attached to at least one of the inner transverse ribs 17, which has a central notch 28 at the upper edge, into which the jig 2 carrying the application roller 1 with his the stalk 3 striving area in the working position, that is, when employed on the applicator roll 1 drip tray 5, engages. The rider 27 forms a stop which causes the application roller 1 in the working position further protrudes from the drip tray 5, as when not using the rider 27, as from a comparison of the drawn in Figure 5 with a solid line position of the applicator roller 1 in use of the rider 27 with the position indicated in Figure 5 with a broken line position of the applicator roll without the use of the rider 27 is easily recognizable.

Dadurch, dass die Auftragwalze 1 vergleichsweise weit aus der Tropfenauffangschale 5 herausragt, kann die Auftragwalze 1 mit einem vergleichsweise großen Umfangsbereich zur Anlage an der zu bearbeitenden, in Figur 5 bei F angedeuteten Fläche gebracht werden, ohne dass die Tropfenauffangschale 5 mit ihrem Rand an der Fläche F streift, wie durch den Winkel α verdeutlicht werden soll. Die gesamte Auftragvorrichtung kann daher um einen vergleichsweise großen, in Figur 5 durch Doppelpfeile angedeuteten Winkel geschwenkt werden, so dass der Benutzer der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung einen großen Aktionsradius hat. Dennoch schützt die Tropfenauffangschale 5 vor Spritzern.Characterized in that the application roller 1 protrudes comparatively far out of the drip tray 5, the application roller 1 can be brought with a comparatively large peripheral area for engagement with the machined, indicated in Figure 5 at F surface without the drip tray 5 with its edge on the Surface F touches, as indicated by the angle α. The entire application device can therefore be pivoted about a comparatively large angle, indicated by double arrows in FIG. 5, so that the user of the device according to the invention has a large action radius. Nevertheless, the drip tray 5 protects against splashes.

Der Reiter 27 besitzt, wie die Figur 5 in Verbindung mit Figur 6 erkennen lässt, ein auf dem oberen Rand der jeweils zugeordneten Querrippe 17 der Tropfenauffangschale 5 zur Auflage bringbares Joch 29, von dem zwei die zugeordnete Querrippe 17 flankierende Schenkel 30 nach unten abstehen. Diese sind durch einen der Kerbe 26 der zugeordneten Querrippe zugeordneten Steg 31 miteinander verbunden. Der stegferne Rand der Schenkel 30 kann einen an die Innenkontur der Tropfenauffangschale 5 angepassten Verlauf aufweisen, so dass sich ein zuverlässiger Sitz ergibt. Auf der den Schenkeln 30 gegenüberliegenden Seite ist eine vom Steg 29 nach oben abstehende, mittig angeordnete Lasche 32 vorgesehen, die am oberen Rand mit einer mittigen Kerbe 33 versehen ist. Die Dicke der Lasche 32 entspricht etwa der Dicke der Querrippen 17. Der lichte Abstand der Schenkel 30 ist so bemessen, dass sich beim Aufstecken auf die zugeordnete Querrippe 17 eine leichte Klemmwirkung und damit ein guter Halt ergeben.The rider 27 has, as can be seen in FIG. 5 in conjunction with FIG. 6, a yoke 29 which can be brought to rest on the upper edge of the respective associated transverse rib 17 of the drip tray 5, from which two legs 30 flanking the associated transverse rib 17 protrude downwards. These are connected by a notch 26 of the associated transverse rib associated web 31 with each other. The non-web edge of the legs 30 may have a matched to the inner contour of the drip tray 5 course, so that there is a reliable fit. On the opposite side of the legs 30 is a projecting from the web 29 upwardly, centrally arranged tab 32 is provided, which at the upper edge with a central notch 33rd is provided. The thickness of the tab 32 corresponds approximately to the thickness of the transverse ribs 17. The clear distance of the legs 30 is dimensioned so that when plugging onto the associated transverse rib 17, a slight clamping effect and thus a good grip result.

Es genügt, wenn einer Querrippe 17, nämlich der unter dem dem Stiel 3 zustrebenden Bereich des Bügels 2 sich befindenden Querrippe ein einen Anschlag bildender Reiter 27 vorstehend beschriebener Art zugeordnet ist. Zweckmäßig können beiden aus Figur 3 hervorgehenden Querrippen 17 Reiter 27 zugeordnet sein, so daß der Benutzer nicht darauf achten muss, dass der Bügel 2 jeweils zum einen Reiter 27 hin seitlich auskragt.It suffices if a transverse rib 17, namely the transverse rib located below the stalk 3 of the stirrup 2, is assigned a rider 27 of the type described above which forms a stop. Conveniently, two ridges 27 may be associated with both of FIG. 3 resulting transverse ribs 17, so that the user does not have to pay attention that the bracket 2 projects laterally to a respective tab 27.

Sofern die Auftragwalze 1 besonders weit aus der Tropfenauffangschale 5 herausragen soll, kann auf einen ersten, auf eine tropfenauffangschalenseitige Querrippe 17 aufgesteckten Reiter 27 ein weiterer Reiter 27 aufgesteckt werden, wie in Figur 6 mit strichpunktierten Linien angedeutet ist. Auch aus diesem Grund ist es vorteilhaft, wenn der Tropfenauffangschale 5 ein Set von wenigsten zwei Reitern 27 zugeordnet ist.If the application roller 1 is to protrude particularly far out of the drip tray 5, a further rider 27 can be plugged onto a first rider 27 mounted on a drip catcher side transverse rib 17, as indicated by dot-dash lines in FIG. For this reason too, it is advantageous if the drip tray 5 is associated with a set of at least two riders 27.
