Definitions
- Tool especially cleaning and application device, with a handle and a handle
- the invention relates to a working device, in particular cleaning and application device, according to the preamble of claim 1.
- Working tools in connection with the invention are primarily household appliances, such as brooms, scrubbers, pugs, damp mopping devices for floors and windows, but also paint rollers or other paint application devices, pressure rollers for wallpapers, etc., which are not just a handle, but have a longer handle with which the actual working part is ⁇ guided and, if necessary, also pressed on.
- Such handles are mostly drawn from a smooth-walled metal tube or extruded as a plastic tube. In order to save material, smaller and smaller diameters are used, which today are 18 to 24 mm. The small diameter and smooth wall make it difficult to manually apply guide and pressure forces to the handle and the actual work piece.
- Guidance and pressure of the working part play a role, in particular, in such working devices, the working part of which is not rigid, but is articulated to the handle. This applies, for example, to a large number of damp wiping devices.
- Stems are also known which offer the possibility of an extension, either by plugging corresponding partial lengths together or by forming the stem as a telescopic handle.
- the grip of the handle plays a bigger role the longer it is. So far, it has largely been limited to providing a handle-like design at the free end of the handle, but with which only the managers usually applied there can be better transmitted, but not with
- a clamping lever is pivotally mounted on the clamping sleeve, which can be pivoted between a clamping position in which it applies a radial clamping force to the handle and a release division in which the clamping sleeve and thus the handle are displaced and adjusted relative to the handle can.
- the invention has for its object to provide an implement of the type mentioned, in which the risk of the user getting caught with the grip element is reduced.
- the handle element is guided loosely on the handle or is supplied as a loose component and can in both cases be optimally adjusted ergonomically by the user according to his operating habits, his working posture, body size and / or arm length is primarily used to apply pressure forces, i.e. is attached at a distance from the end of the handle.
- This is advantageous in connection with one-piece standard handles, but especially in connection with handles of variable length, for example plug-in handles, telescopic handles or combination handles with plug-in and telescopic parts.
- the setting or conversion of the grip element into a position that is ergonomically advantageous for the user is possible.
- the gripping element grips the 'handle in the form of a sleeve.
- a sleeve can be designed essentially closed and can be fixed with a clamping means acting non-positively between the sleeve and the stem, primarily frictional engagement being possible and the fixing being releasable in order to be able to adjust the grip element if necessary.
- the clamping means has a clamping piece, which is mounted on the sleeve and interacts positively with the handle and can be actuated manually.
- the clamping piece can have a compact, nut-like shape or can also be designed as an elongated lever handle which, in its clamping position, lies approximately parallel to the handle.
- the sleeve has a receptacle formed between two spaced cheeks and that the clamping piece is at least partially arranged in the receptacle in its clamping position.
- the cheeks are molded onto the sleeve and run essentially parallel to one another.
- the clamping piece can be pivotally mounted on the cheeks and at least partially immerse between the cheeks when it is pivoted into its clamping position.
- the clamping piece in its clamping position is completely in the receptacle, i.e. is arranged between the cheeks, the outside of the clamping piece preferably being located at the level of the free edges of the cheek, so that excessive undercuts or shoulders, which entail the risk of snagging, are also avoided here.
- the clamping piece does not completely immerse into the receptacle in its clamping position, it can be provided in a further development of the invention that the clamping piece has a recess in the inner region facing the handle on opposite side surfaces and that the cheeks delimiting the receptacle in the
- Clamping position of the clamping piece are each arranged in one of the recesses.
- the recesses which are designed as inwardly drawn regions, come into contact with the cheeks when the clamping piece is adjusted on the inside and thus serve to guide the clamping piece during its adjustment.
- the cheeks completely fill the recesses, it being provided in particular that the depth of the recesses essentially corresponds to the thickness of the cheeks delimiting the receptacle, so that the cheeks with their outer top smoothly transition into the surfaces of the clamping piece adjacent to the recesses and do not protrude beyond the recesses.
- the clamping piece is smoothed or rounded on the outside. It can in particular be provided that the clamping piece on its radial outside, i.e. the side facing away from the stem has a convex rounded contour, the convexity being able to be formed in the longitudinal direction of the stem and / or in the circumferential direction of the stem.
- the clamping piece acts directly on the handle and clamps the sleeve with it.
- the sleeve has a clamping plate arranged between the clamping piece and the stem and that the clamping piece in its clamping position presses the clamping plate against the outer surface of the stem, i.e. acts indirectly on the stem.
- Clamping plate has the advantage that the clamping force can be applied over a larger area, so that a secure holding of the grip element on the handle is ensured even after prolonged use of the implement.
- the outside of the grip element is preferably ergonomically shaped and / or profiled, that is to say adapted to the shape of the hand of the user depending on the position and guidance of the implement. Due to the enlargement of the outside diameter given by the grip element, in the simplest case a longitudinal and possibly a transverse profile is sufficient.
- the grip element can have a friction-increasing layer, which consists for example of a rubber-elastic material, at least in partial areas. This can be a complete coating or embedded strips and the like. In particular, however, the sleeve and the friction-increasing layer can be produced in a two-component injection molding process.
- the handle element itself can also be made entirely or partially of a rubber-elastic material, e.g. consist of an elastomer, which increases not only the grip, but also the grip on the handle when parts of the grip element generate the clamping effect directly.
- a rubber-elastic material e.g. consist of an elastomer
- FIG. 1 is a view of a handle with the handle element in the clamped position
- FIG. 2 shows the handle according to FIG. 1 with the handle element in the open or release position
- FIG. 3 shows an enlarged section in the region of the upper end of the grip element in the clamping position
- FIG. 4 shows a section corresponding to FIG. 3 in the release position
- FIG. 5 shows a view of a broken-off stalk with a second embodiment of the grip element in the clamping Position
- FIG. 6 shows the embodiment according to FIG. 5 in the release position in section
- Figure 7 is an enlarged sectional view of the
- FIG. 8 shows a representation corresponding to FIG. 7 with the grip element in the clamping position.
- a stem 1 and 2 show in broken representation a stem 1, which has a circular cylindrical cross section over its entire length and at its free end a stem cap 2 with a suspension eye 3 and at its opposite end an attached threaded part 4 for the attachment of a Has working part.
- the working part can be, for example, a broom, scrubber or the like.
- a handle element 5 sits on the stem 1, the contour of which is ergonomically adapted to the hand of a user and has a tailored configuration for this purpose.
- the grip element 5 forms a closed sleeve 6 (FIGS. 3 and 4) encompassing the handle 1 and is provided at its end facing the upper free handle end with a recess or receptacle 7, which is essentially parallel to one another in the longitudinal direction of the handle 1 extending, spaced cheeks 6a is laterally limited.
- a clamping piece 8 is pivotally mounted about a joint 9, which forms a pivot axis running essentially perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the handle 1.
- the clamping piece 8 has a compact, nut-like shape and is convex in its outer contour 8a rounded outside. 1 to 4 show that the convexity in the longitudinal direction of the stem 1 is given. In addition to this, the clamping piece 8 also has a convexly rounded outer contour in the circumferential direction of the stem 1, ie essentially perpendicular to the plane of the drawing in FIGS. 1 to 4.
- the clamping piece 8 On its surface facing the stem 1, the clamping piece 8 has a trough-shaped concave depression 10 which is partially cylindrical and is adapted, for example, to the outline of the stem 1. As shown in FIG. 2, the clamping piece 8 also has a recess 8b in its inner region facing the handle 1 on opposite side surfaces, the depth of which essentially corresponds to the wall thickness of the cheeks 6a. Furthermore, the clamping piece 8 has a molded-on cam 11 which interacts with the surface of the handle 1.
- FIGS. 1 and 3 show the clamping piece 8 in the clamping position.
- the cam 11 which is arranged in a radial plane below the joint 9, forms an abutment, via which a clamping force 8 is applied to the stem 1 by a radially inwardly directed clamping force, as a result of which the grip element 5 is in its set position Position on the handle is fixed.
- the cheeks 6a in the clamping position of the clamping piece 8 completely fill the recesses 8b of the clamping piece 8, a smooth, essentially flush transition being achieved between the outer surface of each cheek 6a and the outer surface of the clamping piece 8.
- the convex outer contour 8a of the clamping piece 8 also merges in the clamping position of the clamping piece 8 essentially flush into the further contour of the handle piece 5 or the sleeve 6.
- a user swivels the clamping piece 8 around the joint 9 into the position shown in FIGS. 2 and 4, in which the cam 11 is out of engagement with the handle 1.
- the grip element 5 on the handle 1 can both be rotated and axially displaced, as is arranged in Fig. 2 by corresponding arrows. The user can thus bring the grip element 5 into a position that is comfortable for him and fix it on the handle.
- FIGS. 5 to 8 shows the grip element 5 with a closed sleeve 6 encompassing the handle 1.
- the grip element 5 has a receptacle 7 in which a clamping piece 8 is pivotably mounted about a joint 9.
- the clamping piece 8 is provided in this case with an elongated handle lever 12, by means of which can be brought from a release position according to FIGS. 6 and 7 by pivoting the handle lever 12 to the handle 1 in the clamping position in which the handle lever
