Description

Beschreibung : Description :
Anordnung zum Entfernen von Beulen aus BlechArrangement for removing dents from sheet metal
Zum Entfernen von konkaven Beulen aus Blech ist es bekannt, in die Beule einen Adapter einzukleben und an dem Adapter eine Stange anzubringen, auf der ein Gleitstück gegen einen Anschlag verschoben werden kann. Dieses Gleitstück wird als Gleithammer bezeichnet. Der Gleithammer wird dann von der Beule weg in Richtung auf den Körper des Benutzers geschlagen, und dadurch die Beule aus dem Blech gezogen. Die Hand- habung dieses Gleithammers ist etwas erschwert, da er in Richtung auf den Körper geschlagen werden muss.To remove concave bumps from sheet metal, it is known to glue an adapter into the bump and to attach a rod to the adapter, on which a slide can be moved against a stop. This slider is called a slide hammer. The slide hammer is then struck away from the dent toward the user's body, thereby pulling the dent out of the sheet. The handling of this slide hammer is somewhat difficult because it has to be struck towards the body.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Möglichkeit zu schaffen, in ähnlicher Weise Beulen aus einem Blech zu entfernen.The invention has for its object to provide a way to remove dents from a sheet in a similar manner.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe schlägt die Erfindung eine Anordnung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 vor. Weiterbildungen der Erfindung sind Gegenstand der abhängigen Ansprüche, deren Wortlaut durch Bezugnahme zum Inhalt der Beschreibung gemacht wird.To achieve this object, the invention proposes an arrangement with the features of claim 1. Further developments of the invention are the subject of the dependent claims, the wording of which is made the content of the description by reference.
An dem Adapter, der in gleicher Weise wie im Stand der Technik in der Beule befestigt wird, wird das Zugelement angebracht, das dann mit seinem anderen Ende mit dem Träger verbunden wird. Dann kann die Zugkraft auf den Zugadapter über den Träger erfolgen. Das Halteelement kann sich an geeigneter Stelle abstützen, beispielsweise auch an dem Blech, oder aber an einem Rand oder einem sonstigen Bauteil.The tension element is attached to the adapter, which is fastened in the bulge in the same way as in the prior art, and is then connected at its other end to the carrier. Then the pulling force on the pulling adapter can take place via the carrier. The holding element can be supported at a suitable point, for example also on the Sheet metal, or on an edge or another component.
Insbesondere kann in Weiterbildung der Erfindung vorgesehen sein, dass das Halteelement als Hebel ausgebildet ist, so dass es um die Abstützstelle angehoben werden kann, um dadurch eine Zugkraft auf das Zugelement und damit auf den in der Beule eingeklebten Adapter auszuüben. Die Handhabung dieser Vorrichtung ist wesentlich einfacher als im Stand der Technik.In particular, it can be provided in a further development of the invention that the holding element is designed as a lever so that it can be raised around the support point in order to exert a tensile force on the pull element and thus on the adapter glued into the bulge. The handling of this device is much easier than in the prior art.
Bei dem Hebel kann es sich um einen einarmigen oder auch um einen zweiarmigen Hebel handeln.The lever can be a one-armed or a two-armed lever.
In nochmaliger Ausbildung kann erfindungsgemäß vorgesehen sein, dass der Träger als mindestens teilweise geradlinig verlaufende Stange bzw. Schiene ausgebildet ist. Die Schiene bzw. Stange kann einen langgestreckten Querschnitt aufweisen, um in der Richtung, in der die Kraft aufgewendet werden muss, besonders stabil zu sein, ohne andererseits das Gewicht zu groß zu machen. Durch die Ausbildung als Hebel können mit der Anordnung hohe Kräfte erreicht werden, ohne zu einer Unterstützung durch ein Schlaginstrument zu greifen.In a further embodiment, it can be provided according to the invention that the carrier is designed as an at least partially rectilinear rod or rail. The rail or rod can have an elongated cross section in order to be particularly stable in the direction in which the force has to be applied, without on the other hand making the weight too great. Due to the training as a lever, high forces can be achieved with the arrangement without resorting to support by a percussion instrument.
In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Zugelement in unterschiedlichen Positionen an dem Träger angebracht werden kann. Dadurch ist es möglich, die Abstützstelle so zu legen, wie es den Gegebenheiten am Reparaturort entspricht.In a further embodiment of the invention it can be provided that the tension element can be attached to the carrier in different positions. This makes it possible to place the support point as it corresponds to the conditions at the repair site.
Erfindungsgemäß kann vorgesehen sein, dass das Halteelement einen Griff aufweist.According to the invention it can be provided that the holding element has a handle.
Die Erfindung schlägt in Weiterbildung vor, dass das Zugelement derart ausgebildet sein kann, dass es unverlierbar am dem Träger angebracht werden kann. Dennoch kann es möglich sein, es so anzubringen, dass es in einer bestimmten Position fixiert werden kann, aus der es dann in andere Positionen verschoben werden kann. Es ist auch möglich, den Träger so auszugestalten, dass das Ziehstück in einer bestimmten Position aus ihm entnommen werden kann.The invention proposes in a further development that the tension element can be designed such that it is captive on can be attached to the carrier. Nevertheless, it may be possible to attach it in such a way that it can be fixed in a certain position, from which it can then be moved to other positions. It is also possible to design the carrier so that the drawing piece can be removed from it in a specific position.

Figur 1 zeigt perspektivisch eine von der Erfindung vorgeschlagene Anordnung zum Entfernen einer konkaven Beule aus einem Blech. Die Anordnung enthält ein Halteelement 1, das sich an einem Ende an einer Abstützstelle 2 abstützt. Die Abstützstelle 2 enthält eine ebene Platte 3, die auf eine entsprechende stabile Stelle aufgelegt wird. Die Platte 3 kann an ihrer Unterseite eine das Wegrutschen verhindernde Beschichtung, beispielsweise aus Elastomermaterial, aufweisen. In einer Gelenkanordnung 4 ist an der Abstützung 2 der als einarmiger Hebel ausgebildete Träger angelenkt. DerFigure 1 shows in perspective an arrangement proposed by the invention for removing a concave dent from a sheet. The arrangement contains a holding element 1, which is supported at one end at a support point 2. The support point 2 contains a flat plate 3, which on a appropriate stable place is placed. The underside of the plate 3 can have a coating which prevents it from slipping away, for example made of elastomer material. In a joint arrangement 4, the support designed as a one-armed lever is articulated on the support 2. The
Träger 1 ist über einen großen Teil seiner Länge als geradlinige Schiene ausgebildet, die zwei im Querschnitt rechtwinklige parallele einen gegenseitigen Abstand aufweisende Metallprofile 5 aufweist. An dem der Abstützstelle 2 entge- gengesetzten Ende ist an dem Halteelement 1 ein Handgriff 6 angebracht, an dem ein Benutzer angreifen kann.Carrier 1 is formed over a large part of its length as a straight rail which has two parallel metal profiles 5 which are rectangular in cross section and have a mutual spacing. At the end opposite the support point 2, a handle 6 is attached to the holding element 1, on which a user can grip.
Zwischen die beiden Metallprofile 5 ist der Schaft 7 eines Zugelementes 8 hindurch gesteckt. Der Kopf 9 des Zugelements 8 weist einen größeren Durchmesser auf als der Abstand zwischen den beiden Metallprofilen 5, so dass das Zugelement 8 mit dem Träger zugfest verbunden ist.The shaft 7 of a tension element 8 is inserted between the two metal profiles 5. The head 9 of the tension element 8 has a larger diameter than the distance between the two metal profiles 5, so that the tension element 8 is connected to the carrier in a tensile manner.
An seinem gegenüberliegenden unteren Ende ist das Zugelement mit einer Klaue 10 versehen, mit der es in den Kopf einesAt its opposite lower end, the traction element is provided with a claw 10, with which it is in the head of a
Zugadapters 11 ebenfalls zugfest eingehängt werden kann. Der Zugadapter 11 wird vorher in die Beule, die ausgebeult werden soll, eingeklebt. Wenn der Monteur an dem Griff 6 angreift und den Träger nach oben verschwenkt, wird an dem Zugadapter 11 und damit an dem Blech gezogen. Es wird dadurch möglich, die Beule herauszuziehen. Gegebenenfalls kann auch mit einem Hammer unterstützend, auf den Rand der Beule geschlagen werden. Damit erreicht man eine höhere Steifigkeit des zurückgeformten Bleches.Train adapter 11 can also be attached tensile. The pull adapter 11 is previously glued into the dent that is to be bulged. When the fitter engages the handle 6 and pivots the carrier upwards, the pull adapter 11 and thus the sheet metal are pulled. This makes it possible to pull out the bump. If necessary, you can also use a hammer to hit the edge of the dent. This achieves a higher stiffness of the shaped sheet.
Figur 2 zeigt das Zugelement 8 in größerer Einzelheit. An seinem einen dem Zugadapter 11 zugeordneten Ende ist eine Klaue 10 gebildet. Diese enthält eine Öffnung 12, die zu der einen Seite hin offen ist. Die Querabmessung entspricht dabei der Abmessung des Kopfs, der an dem Zugadapter 11 angebracht ist. Unterhalb der Öffnung 12 sind beidseits Schultern 13 gebildet, zwischen denen ein Schlitz 14 frei bleibt. Die Breite des Schlitzes 14 entspricht dem Durchmesser des an dem Zugadapter 11 vorhandenen Kopfes. Der Querschnitt der Figur 4 zeigt, wie die Schultern 13 den Schlitz 14 umgeben.Figure 2 shows the tension element 8 in greater detail. At its one end associated with the train adapter 11, a claw 10 is formed. This contains an opening 12 which is open on one side. The transverse dimension corresponds to this the dimension of the head attached to the train adapter 11. Below the opening 12 shoulders 13 are formed on both sides, between which a slot 14 remains free. The width of the slot 14 corresponds to the diameter of the head present on the pull adapter 11. The cross section of FIG. 4 shows how the shoulders 13 surround the slot 14.
In dem an die Klaue 10 anschließenden ersten Schaftteil 15 ist von der der Klaue 10 abgewandten Seite eine axiale Bohrung 16 eingebracht, die koaxial zum dem Schaftteil 15 verläuft. Sie enthält ein Innengewinde. In das Innengewinde ist der mit einem Gewindeansatz 17 versehene zweite Teil des Zugelements 8 mit dem Schaft 7 eingeschraubt. Das Zugelement könnte konstruktiv auch anders aufgebaut sein.In the first shaft part 15 adjoining the claw 10, an axial bore 16 is made from the side facing away from the claw 10 and runs coaxially to the shaft part 15. It contains an internal thread. The second part of the tension element 8 with the shaft 7, which is provided with a threaded shoulder 17, is screwed into the internal thread. The tension element could also be constructed differently.
Vor der Fertigungsmontage ist auf den Schaft 7 eine Unterlegscheibe 18 und eine angedeutete Schraubendruckfeder 19 aufgefädelt. Die Schraubendruckfeder 19 drückt die Unterlegscheibe 18 in Richtung auf den Kopf 9 des Zugelementes . Bei dem Ein- führen des Zugelements in dem Träger werden die Metallprofile 5 zwischen der Unterlegscheibe 18 und dem Kopf 9 des Zugelementes festgehalten. Dadurch ist das Zugelement 8 an einer bestimmten Stelle des Trägers fixiert, so dass sich das Gerät leichter handhaben lässt. Die Fixierung ist so gewählt, dass sich das Zugelement bei Bedarf auch verschieben lässt. Durch den Aufbau des Trägers aus zwei parallelen beabstande- ten Metallprofilen 5 kann das Zugelement 8 beliebig hin und her geschoben werden. Dadurch lässt sich einerseits der Hebelarm verändern, andererseits aber auch dafür sorgen, dass die Abstützstelle 3 an eine geeignete Unterlage angesetzt werden kann.Before production assembly, a washer 18 and an indicated helical compression spring 19 are threaded onto the shaft 7. The helical compression spring 19 presses the washer 18 in the direction of the head 9 of the tension element. When the tension element is inserted into the carrier, the metal profiles 5 are held between the washer 18 and the head 9 of the tension element. As a result, the pulling element 8 is fixed at a specific point on the carrier, so that the device can be handled more easily. The fixation is selected so that the tension element can also be moved if necessary. By constructing the carrier from two parallel spaced metal profiles 5, the tension element 8 can be pushed back and forth as desired. In this way, the lever arm can be changed on the one hand, but on the other hand it can also ensure that the support point 3 can be attached to a suitable base.
In der Figur 1 ist ein einarmiger Hebel dargestellt. Es wäre selbstverständlich auch möglich, den Träger für das Zugele- ment 8 als zweiarmigen Hebel auszubilden, bei dem dann der anderen Arm des Hebels nach unten gedrückt werden üsste.A one-armed lever is shown in FIG. Of course, it would also be possible to ment 8 as a two-armed lever, in which then the other arm of the lever should be pressed down.
Die Anbringung des Elements 8 an einem Träger kann beispiels- weise dadurch geschehen, dass der mit dem Gewinde 17 versehene obere Teil des Zugelements erst zwischen den Profilen 5 hindurch gesteckt und anschließend in den Schaft 15 eingeschraubt wird.The element 8 can be attached to a carrier, for example, by first inserting the upper part of the tension element provided with the thread 17 between the profiles 5 and then screwing it into the shaft 15.
Es ist aber auch möglich, dass beispielsweise der Griff 6 abgenommen werden kann, so dass das Zugelement von dem dann ohne Griff vorhandenen Ende zwischen die Metallprofile 5 eingeschoben werden kann.However, it is also possible that, for example, the handle 6 can be removed, so that the pulling element can be inserted between the metal profiles 5 from the end which is then present without a handle.
Der Halter kann auch beispielsweise eine Stelle aufweisen, wo der Abstand zwischen den beiden Metallprofilen vergrößert ist, um an dieser Stelle den Kopf des Zugelements durck- stecken zu können. Eine solche Möglichkeit ist vereinfacht in Figur 5 dargestellt. Beide Profile 5 haben eine halbrunde Kerbe, die zusammen eine Öffnung bilden. Hier kann der Kopf des Zugelements hindurchgesteckt werden. The holder can also have, for example, a point where the distance between the two metal profiles is increased in order to be able to push the head of the tension element at this point. Such a possibility is shown in simplified form in FIG. 5. Both profiles 5 have a semicircular notch, which together form an opening. The head of the tension element can be inserted here.
