Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung zur schwenkbaren Befestigung einer eine rechteckige Grundfläche und einem umlaufenden Versteifungsrand aufweisenden Klappe in einem Rahmen bestehend aus zwei an sich gegenüberliegenden Seiten des Rahmens gesicherten und sowohl durch den Rand der Klappe als auch durch eine Wandung des Rahmens ragende, elastisch zurückschiebbare Bolzen, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a device for pivotally mounting a a rectangular base and a peripheral stiffening edge having flap in a frame consisting of two in itself secured opposite sides of the frame and both by the edge the flap as well as by a wall of the frame projecting, elastic retractable bolts, according to the preamble of claim 1.

Um sanitäre Leitungen in Gebäuden überprüfen und überwachen zu können, ist es bekannt, besondere Öffnungen vorzusehen, in die dann ein Rahmen eingesetzt wird, der durch eine schwenkbare Klappe geschlossen wird. Die schwenkbare Klappe ist dabei über zwei sich gegenüberliegenden Bolzen in den Rahmen eingesetzt und kann in der geschlossenen Stellung über eine Verriegelungseinrichtung gesichert werden. Da das Spiel zwischen dem Rahmen und der schwenkbaren Klappe, die einen abgekanteten Versteifungsrand besitzt, meistens gering ist, wird vielfach ein Bolzen fest angeordnet, während der andere Bolzen in einer an dem Rand der Klappe angebrachten Führung verschiebbar gehalten ist und entgegen der Kraft einer vorgespannten Feder so weit zurückgeschoben werden kann, daß die Klappe in den Rahmen einsetzbar und der Bolzen in eine Bohrung des Rahmens einrastbar ist. Die Führung des Bolzens muß zusätzlich am Rand der Klappe angebracht werden. Auch die Herstellung des Bolzens und seine Montage ist aufwendig.To check and monitor sanitary pipes in buildings, it is known to provide special openings into which a frame is then inserted, which is closed by a hinged flap. The hinged flap is thereby using two opposite bolts inserted into the frame and can be secured in the closed position via a locking device become. Because the game between the frame and the hinged flap, the has a folded stiffening edge, usually low, is often a Bolt fixed while the other bolt in one at the edge of the bolt Flap mounted guide is slidably held and against the force a preloaded spring can be pushed back so far that the flap can be inserted into the frame and the bolt can be latched into a hole in the frame is. The leadership of the bolt must also be attached to the edge of the flap become. The production of the bolt and its installation is complicated.

Die Druckschrift DE 298 19 761 U1 offenbart ein Türscharnier mit einem Bolzen und einem Einhänge- Widerlager, das mittels einer Schlaufe betätigbar ist, wobei der Bolzen durch eine Bohrung in der horizontalen Türkante in ein Lager am Türrahmen greift und das Einhänge- Widerlager in einen Ausschnitt der vertikalen Türkante greift. Das Türschamier weist einen Anschlag auf, der die Weglänge begrenzt, die der Bolzen in den Rahmen gesteckt und herausgezogen werden kann. Nachteilig ist, dass für den Anschlag eine zusätzliche Bohrung in der Türkante vorgesehen sein muss und dass der Anschlag einen zusätzlichen Fertigungsaufwand bei der Herstellung des Türscharniers bildet. The document DE 298 19 761 U1 discloses a door hinge with a bolt and a suspension abutment, which is actuated by means of a loop, wherein the Bolt through a hole in the horizontal door edge into a bearing on the door frame engages and the suspension abutment in a section of the vertical door edge attacks. The Türschamier has a stop that limits the path length, the the bolt can be inserted into the frame and pulled out. The disadvantage is that for the stop an additional hole may be provided in the door edge must and that the stop an additional manufacturing effort in the Production of the door hinge forms.

Der Erfindung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine in ihrem Aufbau einfache, preiswert herstellbare und in kürzester Zeit zu montierende Vorrichtung zu schaffen, mit der eine Klappe sicher und in kürzester Zeit schwenkbar in einem Rahmen befestigt werden kann.The invention is therefore based on the object, a simple in their construction, to produce inexpensively producible and in a very short time to mount device with a flap safely and in no time swiveling in a frame can be attached.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe wird gemäß der Erfindung bei einer Vorrichtung der eingangs beschriebenen Gattung ,d.h. wobei sich jeder Bolzen annähernd rechtwinkelig nach außen an dem Ende eines Schenkels jeweils einer federelastischen Klammer befindet und der andere Schenkel der Klammer einen versetzt und zumindest annähernd parallel zum Bolzen verlaufenden und am Rand der Klappe einrastbaren Haltesteg besitzt vorgeschlagen daß die Klammer so geformt ist, daß sie zwischen dem ersten Schenkel und dem zweiten Schenkel zumindest teilweise an der den Bolzen aufnehmenden Fläche des Randes der Klappe anliegt.To solve this problem is according to the invention in a device of initially described genus, i. with each bolt approaching right-angled outward at the end of a thigh respectively one spring clip is located and the other Leg of the clip offset one and at least approximately parallel to the bolt running and latched on the edge of the flap retaining bridge has proposed that the Clamp is shaped so that they are between the first leg and the second Leg at least partially on the pin receiving surface of the edge the flap rests.

Eine derartige Vorrichtung wird zunächst mit ihrem Haltesteg an dem Rand der Klappe gesichert. So dann wird die Klammer so stark verformt, daß der Bolzen sowohl durch eine Bohrung des Randes der Klappe als auch durch eine Bohrung des Rahmens steckbar ist. Dies ergibt eine leichte, aber äußerst sichere schwenkbare Befestigung der Klappe in dem Rahmen.Such a device is first with its holding web on the edge of Flap secured. So then the clamp is deformed so much that the bolt both through a bore of the edge of the flap as well as through a bore of the Frame is pluggable. This results in a lightweight, but extremely safe swiveling Fix the flap in the frame.

Weitere Merkmale einer Vorrichtung gemäß der Erfindung sind in den Ansprüchen 2 und 5 offenbart.Further features of a device according to the invention are defined in claims 2 and 5 discloses.

Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand eines in einer Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispieles näher erläutert.The invention is described below with reference to an illustrated in a drawing Embodiment explained in more detail.

In dieser Zeichnung ist ausschnittsweise ein Rahmen 1 gezeigt, der beispielsweise aus einem Winkelprofil oder einem Vierkant-Hohlprofil besteht und von dem nur eine Wandung 2 des Profiles zu erkennen ist. Dieser Rahmen 1 ist in an sich bekannter, nicht näher dargestellter Weise in der Öffnung einer Wand oder dergleichen befestigt. Der Rahmen 1 kann dabei aus Metall oder aus Kunststoff bestehen. In diesen Rahmen 1 wird eine Klappe 3 schwenkbar eingesetzt. Diese Klappe 3 besitzt einen rechtwinklig zur Grundfläche der Klappe 3 verlaufenden Rand 4, der der Verstärkung dient und der parallel zur Wandung 2 des Rahmens 1 verläuft, jedoch davon einen geringfügigen Abstand aufweist.In this drawing, a detail of a frame 1 is shown, for example consists of an angle section or a square hollow section and of the only one Wall 2 of the profile can be seen. This frame 1 is known per se, not shown manner in the opening of a wall or the like attached. The frame 1 can be made of metal or plastic. In this frame 1, a flap 3 is pivotally inserted. This flap 3 has a perpendicular to the base of the flap 3 extending edge 4, the Reinforcement serves and runs parallel to the wall 2 of the frame 1, however thereof has a slight distance.

Der Rand 4 der Klappe 3 besitzt eine Ausnehmung 5, in die ein Arretierschenkel 6 ragt. Dieser Arretierschenkel 6 ist an einen Haltesteg 7 einer Klammer 8 angeformt. Besteht die Klammer 8 beispielsweise aus Federstahl, kann der Arretierschenkel 6 durch einen Stanzvorgang aus dem Haltesteg 7 hergestellt sein. Die Klammer 7 weist zwei Schenkel 9,10 auf, die in dem dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiel einen Winkel (15) einschließen, der über 300° beträgt. Dabei sind die beiden Schenkel 9,10 durch einen Steg 11 miteinander verbunden. An das freie Ende des Schenkels 10 schließt sich ein Bolzen 12 an, der aus der bandartigen Klammer 8 durch Einrollung gebildet ist. Dies bedeutet, daß der Bolzen 12 hohl ausgebildet ist. Dieser Bolzen 12 weist eine Länge auf, die um ein vorgegebenes Maß größer ist als die Dicke der Wandungen 2,4. Sowohl die Wandung 4 der Klappe 3 als auch die Wandung 2 des Rahmens 1 weisen jeweils eine Bohrung 13,14 auf, die rechtwinklig zu der Ausnehmung 5 verlaufen, miteinander fluchten und die in ihrem Querschnitt so groß ausgebildet sind, daß in dieselben der Bolzen 12 eingesteckt werden kann, wie dies die Zeichnung erkennen läßt. Um dies zu erreichen, ist es erforderlich, die beiden Schenkel 9,10 der Klammer 8 so weit gegeneinander zu biegen, daß sich das freie Ende des Bolzens 12 vor der Bohrung 13 der Wandung 4 befindet. Jetzt kann der Bolzen 12 in die Bohrungen 13,14 eingeführt werden. Es ist jedoch auch möglich, zuerst den Bolzen 12 in die Bohrungen 13,14 einzuführen und dann die Arretiemase 6 in der Ausnehmung 5 einzustecken.The edge 4 of the flap 3 has a recess 5, in which a locking leg. 6 protrudes. This locking leg 6 is integrally formed on a retaining web 7 of a bracket 8. Exists the clip 8, for example, spring steel, the locking leg. 6 be made by a punching operation of the retaining web 7. The clamp 7 has two legs 9,10, which in the illustrated embodiment a Include angle (15) that is over 300 °. The two legs are 9,10 connected by a bridge 11. At the free end of the leg 10 joins a bolt 12, which consists of the band-like bracket 8 by rolling is formed. This means that the bolt 12 is hollow. This bolt 12 has a length which is greater by a predetermined amount than the thickness of the Walls 2.4. Both the wall 4 of the flap 3 and the wall 2 of the Frame 1 each have a bore 13,14, which is perpendicular to the Recess 5 run, aligned with each other and in their cross section so large are formed, that in the same the bolt 12 can be inserted, as this the drawing reveals. To achieve this, it is necessary the two Leg 9,10 of the bracket 8 so far against each other to bend that the free End of the bolt 12 is located in front of the bore 13 of the wall 4. Now he can Bolt 12 are inserted into the holes 13,14. However, it is also possible first insert the bolt 12 into the holes 13,14 and then the Arretiemase 6 in the recess 5 to insert.

In Abänderung des erläuterten Ausführungsbeispieles ist es möglich, die Befestigung der Klammer 8 über den Haltesteg 7 am Rand 4 der Klappe 3 anders auszubilden. Der Bolzen 12 kann massiv ausgebildet sein. Dies macht jedoch einen zusätzlichen Befestigungsvorgang des Bolzens 12 an dem Schenkel 10 der Klammer 8 erforderlich.In a modification of the illustrated embodiment, it is possible the attachment the clip 8 on the retaining web 7 on the edge 4 of the flap 3 form differently. The bolt 12 may be solid. However, this makes an extra Fixing operation of the bolt 12 on the leg 10 of the bracket. 8 required.
