Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Steckverbinder aus Kunststoff zur Verbindung von hohlen Abstandsprofilen A, B kleineren Querschnitts für Mehrscheibenisoliergläser mit ausgestanzten Perforationslöchern in dem dem Scheibenzwischenraum zugewandten Quersteg der Abstandsprofile A, B, mit einem flachen, länglichen Körper, von dem das eine Ende in das eine Abstandsprofil A und das andere Ende in das andere Abstandsprofil B einsteckbar sind und dessen Oberfläche mit wenigstens einem in etwa in der Mitte des Steckverbinders angeordneten Anschlagelement versehen ist, welches beim Einschieben des Steckverbinders in die miteinander zu verbindenden Abstandsprofile an den Profilstimseiten anstößt, sowie mit Vorsprüngen zur Vergrößerung der Reibungskraft zwischen der Steckverbinderoberfläche und der Profilinnenwandoberfläche, bestehend aus an den parallelen Längsseiten des Steckverbinders mit Abstand voneinander angeordneten, von der Körperlängsachse wegweisenden und jeweils zur Körperlängsmitte des Steckverbinders gerichteten, federnden Lamellen.The invention relates to a connector made of plastic for connecting hollow spacer profiles A, B smaller cross section for Mehrscheibenisoliergläser with punched perforation holes in the space between the pan facing transverse web of the spacer profiles A, B, with a flat, elongated body, of which the one end into the one spacer profile A and the other end in the other spacing profile B are inserted and whose surface is provided with at least one arranged approximately in the middle of the connector stop member which abuts when inserting the connector into the spacer profiles to be joined together on the profile side, and with projections for Enlargement of the frictional force between the connector surface and the profile inner wall surface, consisting of arranged on the parallel longitudinal sides of the connector with distance from each other, pointing away from the body longitudinal axis and each body center of the connector directed, resilient lamellae.

Steckverbinder dieser Art, die beispielsweise aus EP-A-0 778 389, EP-A-0 651 124 oder EP-A-0 535 305, bekannt sind, und deren Querschnittsform den Querschnitt der miteinander zu verbindenden hohlen Abstandsprofile angepaßt ist, sind in der Regel so gestaltet, daß sie im Zusammenbauzustand mit den Hohlprofilen diese auch im Stoßbereich zusammenhalten.Connectors of this type, which are known for example from EP-A-0 778 389, EP-A-0 651 124 or EP-A-0 535 305, and whose cross-sectional shape is adapted to the cross section of the hollow spacing profiles to be connected to each other, are disclosed in US Pat The rule designed so that they hold together in the assembled state with the hollow sections this also in the joint area.

Es hat sich nun gezeigt, daß insbesondere in den Fällen, in denen die Abstandsprofile und damit der Steckverbinder einen sehr kleinen Querschnitt aufweisen, zunächst einmal der aus dem genannten Stand der Technik bekannte U-förmige Querschnitt, der für den Durchlauf des Molekularsiebs gewählt wird, aus Festigkeitsgründen nur einen relativ kleinen freien Querschnitt zuläßt, da infolge des Kunststoffs gewisse Mindestwanddicken des Steckverbinderprofils nicht unterschritten werden dürfen, um insbesondere die erforderliche Biegefestigkeit des Steckverbinders aufrecht zu erhalten. Darüber hinaus hat sich gezeigt, daß die zwischen den Lamellenenden und der Profilwandinnenoberfläche bestehende Reibungskraft im Einbauzustand des Steckverbinders bei verhältnismäßig kleinen Steckverbinderquerschnitten oftmals nicht ausreicht, um die Verbindung der Abstandsprofile zu stabilisieren und das nachträgliche Entstehen eines Spaltes zwischen den Stirnseiten der Abstandsprofile zu vermeiden.It has now been found that, especially in the cases in which the spacer profiles and thus the connector have a very small cross-section, first of all the known from the cited prior art U-shaped cross-section, which is selected for the passage of the molecular sieve For reasons of strength only allows a relatively small free cross-section, as a result of the plastic certain minimum wall thicknesses of the connector profile not may be fallen below, in particular to maintain the required flexural strength of the connector. In addition, it has been found that the existing between the blade ends and the profile wall inner surface friction force in the installed state of the connector with relatively small connector cross-sections often insufficient to stabilize the connection of the spacer profiles and to avoid the subsequent emergence of a gap between the end faces of the spacer profiles.

Hier schafft die Erfindung Abhilfe, indem sie vorschlägt, daß der längliche Körper einen T-förmigen Querschnitt aufweist, dessen Quersteg auf seiner Oberseite mit wenigstens einer schmalen Längsrippe versehen ist, die so angeordnet ist, daß sie im Einbauzustand des Steckverbinders mit den Rändern der Perforationslöcher in Eingriff steht.Here, the invention remedy by suggesting that the elongated body has a T-shaped cross section, the crosspiece is provided on its upper side with at least one narrow longitudinal rib which is arranged so that they in the installed state of the connector with the edges of the perforation holes engaged.

Dadurch, daß die wenigstens eine Längsrippe mit den Rändern der Perforationslöcher im Einbauzustand des Steckverbinders in Eingriff steht, ergibt sich zwischen der Steckverbinderoberfläche und der Profilinnenwandoberfläche eine zusätzliche mechanische Verriegelung, die den Zusammenhalt der durch den Steckverbinder miteinander verbundenen Abstandsprofile sichert, wobei der freie Durchgang des Molekularsiebs durch den Steckverbinder durch dessen T-förmigen Querschnitt gewährleistet und gleichzeitig eine ausreichende Festigkeit des Steckverbinders erreicht werden.Characterized in that the at least one longitudinal rib is in engagement with the edges of the perforation holes in the installed state of the connector, results between the connector surface and the profile inner wall surface an additional mechanical locking, which ensures the cohesion of interconnected by the connector spacer profiles, wherein the free passage of the Molecular sieve ensured by the connector through the T-shaped cross section and at the same time sufficient strength of the connector can be achieved.

Es hat sich besonders bewährt, zwei mit Abstand voneinander getrennte parallele Längsrippen zu verwenden, an die sich an ihrer dem Rand des länglichen Körpers zugewandten Außenkante zur Längsrichtung des Steckverbinders geneigte federnde Lamellen anschließen, deren innere Enden, gemäß einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der Erfindung, bündig in die Oberfläche der Oberseite des Querstegs übergehen können, aus der sich die Längsrippen erheben.It has proven particularly useful to use two spaced apart parallel longitudinal ribs, to which at its edge of the elongated body facing outer edge to the longitudinal direction of the connector inclined resilient slats connect, the inner ends, according to a further advantageous embodiment of the invention, flush can pass into the surface of the top of the crosspiece, from which rise the longitudinal ribs.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.Further advantageous embodiments of the invention are characterized in the subclaims.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend an Hand des in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert. In der Zeichnung zeigen:

  • Fig. 4 eine Draufsicht des Steckverbinders von Fig. 1 und
  • Fig. 5 eine Seitenansicht des Steckverbinders von Fig. 1.
The invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the embodiment shown in the drawing. In the drawing show:
  • 1 is a bottom view of the connector,
  • 2 is an end view of the connector of Fig. 1,
  • 3 is a sectional view of the connector of FIG. 1, taken along the line CC,

  • 5 is a side view of the connector of FIG. 1.

Der in den Figuren 1 - 5 beispielshalber dargestellte Steckverbinder 1 weist einen flachen, länglichen Körper 2 auf, von dem das eine Ende 13 in das in Fig. 1 schematisch angedeutete eine Abstandsprofil A und das andere Ende 14 in das ebenfalls schematisch angedeutete andere Abstandsprofil B eingesteckt werden, um diese beiden Abstandsprofile, auch Hohlprofile genannt, miteinander zu verbinden, bevor seitlich auf die Abstandsprofile, wie üblich, die Glasscheiben eines Mehrscheibenisolierglases aufgelegt werden.The connector 1 illustrated by way of example in FIGS. 1 to 5 has a flat, elongated body 2, from which one end 13 into the one schematically indicated in FIG. 1 a spacer profile A and the other end 14 in the also schematically indicated other spacer profile B. be inserted to connect these two spacer profiles, also called hollow sections together, before laterally on the spacer profiles, as usual, the glass panes of a multi-pane insulating glass are placed.

Der längliche Körper 2 weist, wie aus den Figuren 2 und 3 ersichtlich, einen T-förmigen Querschnitt auf, dessen waagrechter Quersteg 3 auf seiner Oberseite 5 mit zwei mit Abstand getrennten, parallelen Längsrippen 6, 7 versehen ist, die so angeordnet sind, daß sie im Einbauzustand des Steckverbinders 1 mit den Rändern der Perforationslöcher 8 in Eingriff stehen, welche in dem dem Scheibenzwischenraum zugewandten Steg 15 der Abstandsprofile A, B in an sich bekannter Weise angeordnet sind.The elongated body 2 has, as shown in Figures 2 and 3, a T-shaped cross section, the horizontal transverse web 3 is provided on its upper side 5 with two spaced apart, parallel longitudinal ribs 6, 7, which are arranged so that they are in the installed state of the connector 1 with the edges of the perforation holes 8 are engaged, which are arranged in the disc space facing web 15 of the spacer profiles A, B in a conventional manner.

Auf Grund der T-förmigen Querschnittsform des Steckverbinders 1 gewährleistet dieser bei einer ausreichenden Festigkeit, beispielsweise Biegefestigkeit, zumindest an der Verbindungsstelle der Abstandsprofile A, B einen freien Querschnitt 23, wie aus Fig. 3 ersichtlich, durch den das Molekularsieb die Verbindungsstelle passieren kann, ohne durch die Querschnittsdicke des Steckverbinders am Hindurchfließen durch die hohlen Abstandsprofile im Verbindungsbereich zu stark behindert zu werden.Due to the T-shaped cross-sectional shape of the connector 1 ensures this with sufficient strength, such as bending strength, at least at the junction of the spacer profiles A, B a free cross-section 23, as shown in Figure 3, through which the molecular sieve can pass through the junction, without being too much impeded by the cross-sectional thickness of the connector passing through the hollow spacer profiles in the connection area.

Der Eingriff der Ränder der Perforationslöcher 8 mit den Längsrippen 6, 7 bildet nach dem Zusammenbau der Abstandsprofile A, B, also im Einbauzustand des Steckverbinders 1, eine mechanische Bremse gegen Öffnen des Verbindungsspaltes, die zusammen mit der Reibungskraft wirkt, die zwischen der Steckverbinderoberfläche und der Abstandsprofilinnenwandoberfläche dadurch entsteht, daß die Steckverbinderoberfläche mit Vorsprüngen in Form von an den parallelen Längsseiten 16, 17 des Steckverbinders 1 mit Abstand voneinander angeordneten, von der Körperlängsachse D wegweisenden und jeweils zur Körperlängsmitte M des Steckverbinders gerichteten, federnden Lamellen 11, 12. Die inneren enden der Lamellen gehen bündig in die Oberfläche 10 der Oberseite 21 des Querstegs 3 über, aus der sich die Längsrippen 6, 7 erheben.The engagement of the edges of the perforation holes 8 with the longitudinal ribs 6, 7 forms after assembly of the spacer profiles A, B, ie in the installed state of the connector 1, a mechanical brake against opening of the connection gap, which acts together with the frictional force between the connector surface and the Abstandsprofilinnenwandoberfläche arises because the connector surface with projections in the form of at the parallel longitudinal sides 16, 17 of the connector 1 spaced from each other, pointing away from the body longitudinal axis D and directed respectively to the body longitudinal center M of the connector, resilient lamellae 11, 12. The inner Ends of the slats go flush in the surface 10 of the top 21 of the cross bar 3, from which the longitudinal ribs 6, 7 rise.

Die Längsrippen 6, 7 sind schmaler als der senkrechte Steg 4 des T-förmigen Querschnitts, und ihre Höhe ist kleiner als die Höhe dieses Stegs, während ihre Enden, wie aus Fig. 1 und Fig. 4 ersichtlich, abgeschrägt sind, um das Einstecken in die hohlen Abstandsprofile A, B zu erleichtern.The longitudinal ribs 6, 7 are narrower than the vertical web 4 of the T-shaped cross section, and their height is smaller than the height of this web, while their ends, as seen in Fig. 1 and Fig. 4, are chamfered to the insertion in the hollow spacing profiles A, B easier.

Im Bereich der Lamellen 11, 12 befindet sich in der Mitte M der Länge des Steckverbinders 1 beidseitig der Längsseiten 16, 17 je ein Anschlagelement 18, 19, das eine Anschlagstirnfläche 20 aufweist, die den Stirnflächen der miteinander zu verbindenden Abstandsprofile A, B entgegengesetzt ist und dadurch verhindert, daß diese Profile zu weit auf den Steckverbinder aufgeschoben werden, letzterer also gewissermaßen über seine Mitte hinaus in eines der Abstandsprofile A, B hineingeschoben werden kann. Diese Anschlagelemente 18, 19 gehen in die mit den Längsrippen 6, 7 versehene Oberseite 21 des Steckverbinders über und werden beim Aufschieben der Abstandsprofile in Richtung auf die Steckverbinderlängsachse D gedrückt.In the region of the fins 11, 12 is located in the middle M of the length of the connector 1 on both sides of the longitudinal sides 16, 17 each have a stop element 18, 19 which has a stop face 20 which is opposite to the end faces of the spacing profiles A, B to be joined and thereby prevents these profiles are pushed too far on the connector, the latter so to speak, about its center in one of the spacer profiles A, B can be pushed. These stop elements 18, 19 go into the provided with the longitudinal ribs 6, 7 top 21 of the connector and are pressed when pushing the spacer profiles in the direction of the connector longitudinal axis D.

Die Mitte M des Steckverbinders 1 wird durch eine in etwa Z-förmige Querrippe 22 charakterisiert, die die beiden Längsrippen 6, 7 miteinander verbindet und mit ihren seitlichen Enden als Auflage für die Anschlagelemente 18, 19 dient.The center M of the connector 1 is characterized by an approximately Z-shaped transverse rib 22 which connects the two longitudinal ribs 6, 7 with each other and serves with their lateral ends as a support for the stop elements 18, 19.
