Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Herstellung einer Rastverbindung zwischen einem eine Schubkastenblende und einen Boden aufweisenden Schubkasten und einer Führungsschiene eines Möbels, wobei die Vorrichtung schubkastenseitig festlegbar und mit einem von Hand betätigbaren Rastelement versehen ist, welches die Rastverbindung zur Führungsschiene bewirkt.The present invention relates to a device for producing a latching connection between a drawer panel and a floor Drawer and a guide rail of a piece of furniture, the device can be fixed on the drawer side and provided with a manually operable locking element is, which causes the latching connection to the guide rail.

Vorrichtungen der gattungsgemäßen Art sind an sich z.B. aus US-A-4810045 bekannt.Devices of the generic type are known per se, e.g. from US-A-4810045.

Derartige Vorrichtungen werden links- und rechtsseitig an einem Schubkasten befestigt. Der Schubkasten wird dann in Verbindung gebracht mit den Führungsschienen, die links- und rechtsseitig an einem Möbelkorpus befestigt sind.Such devices are attached to the left and right sides of a drawer. The drawer is then connected to the guide rails, which are attached to the left and right sides of a furniture body.

Bei den bekannten Vorrichtungen ist der Abstand der beiden Vorrichtungen, die an einem Schubkasten befestigt werden, nicht zueinander veränderlich. Da aufgrund der verschiedensten Toleranzgrößen die Abstände zwischen den einander gegenüber liegenden Führungsschienen eines Möbels nicht immer konstant sein können, bestehen in der Praxis unter Umständen Schwierigkeiten, einen sicheren Eingriff der Rastmittel und somit eine sichere Rastverbindung zwischen den Vorrichtungen einerseits und den Führungsschienen andererseits herzustellen.In the known devices, the distance between the two devices, the be attached to a drawer, not mutually variable. Because due of the most diverse tolerance sizes, the distances between each other lying guide rails of a piece of furniture can not always be constant exist In practice, difficulties may arise, a safe intervention of the Locking means and thus a secure latching connection between the devices on the one hand and the guide rails on the other hand.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung der gattungsgemäßen Art zu schaffen, die auf einfache Art und Weise eine Justierung oder Anpassung an die toleranzbedingte Lage einer Führungsschiene eines Möbels erlaubt.The present invention is based on the object, a device of the generic type To create a simple way of adjusting or adjusting Adaptation to the tolerance-related position of a guide rail of a piece of furniture allowed.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Vorrichtung mehrteilig ausgebildet ist und aus einem schubkastenseitig festlegbaren Basisteil und dem gegenüber dem Basisteil in Grenzen parallel zur Schubkastenblende und zum Boden verschiebbaren Rastelement besteht.This object is achieved in that the device in several parts is formed and from a drawer side fixable base part and the relative to the base part within limits parallel to the drawer panel and the floor movable Detent element consists.

Die vorliegende Erfindung macht sich somit letztendlich den Gedanken zu eigen, die Vorrichtung nach dem Prinzip eines Festlagers und eines Loslagers aufzubauen, d. h., ein Teil der Vorrichtung wird als Festlager schubkastenseitig montiert und ein anderes Teil der Vorrichtung als Loslager dem gegenüber verschiebbar ausgebildet, so daß eine Anpassung an eine toleranzbestimmte Lage einer Führungsschiene problemlos möglich ist.The present invention ultimately endorses the idea, to construct the device according to the principle of a fixed bearing and a loose bearing, d. h., A part of the device is mounted as a fixed bearing thrust-box side and a other part of the device designed as a movable bearing against the displaceable, so that an adaptation to a tolerance-specific position of a guide rail easily is possible.

Weitere Merkmale der Erfindung sind Gegenstand von Unteransprüchen.Further features of the invention are the subject of dependent claims.

In Figur 1 ist in stark schematisierter Darstellungsweise gezeigt, daß ein mit dem Bezugszeichen 1 bezeichneter Schubkasten mit einem Boden 2 und zwei Seitenwandungen 3 sowie einer in Figur 1 nicht erkennbaren Schubkastenblende von zwei Führungsschienen 4 getragen wird. Der Schubkasten 1 muß gegenüber den Führungsschienen 4 in axialer Richtung fixiert werden. Hierzu dienen in bekannter Weise zwei mit den Führungsschienen 4 verbundene Haken 5 in dem Bereich der Rückwand des Schubkastens 1 und im vorderen, einer hier in Figur 1 nicht gezeigten Schubkastenblende liegenden Bereich sind (aus Übersichtlichkeitsgründen in Figur 1 nicht gezeigte) Vorrichtungen zur Herstellung einer Rastverbindung zwischen dem Schubkasten 1 und den Führungsschienen 4 vorgesehen.In Figure 1 is shown in a highly schematic representation that one with the Reference numeral 1 designated drawer with a bottom 2 and two side walls 3 and a not visible in Figure 1 drawer panel of two Guide rails 4 is worn. The drawer 1 must be opposite the guide rails 4 are fixed in the axial direction. Serve this in a known Way two hooks 5 connected to the guide rails 4 in the area of Rear wall of the drawer 1 and in the front, one not shown here in Figure 1 Drawer panel lying area are (for clarity in Figure 1) not shown) devices for producing a locking connection between the drawer 1 and the guide rails 4 are provided.

Dieser grundsätzliche Aufbau ist an sich bekannt.This basic structure is known per se.

Figur 1 soll nun deutlich machen, daß der effektive Abstand der Führungsschienen 4 zueinander von verschiedenen Faktoren abhängig sein kann.Figure 1 will now make it clear that the effective distance of the guide rails 4 may depend on each other for various factors.

In Figur 1 ist der effektive Abstand der Führungsschienen 4 zueinander mit dem Buchstaben F bezeichnet. Dieser Abstand hängt einerseits ab von der Gesamtbreite A eines andeutungsweise gezeigten Möbels 6, von der Dicke B der Seitenwandungen 7 des Möbels 6 sowie von dem Maß der Abwinkelung C von am Möbelkorpus befestigten Laufschienen 8. In Figure 1, the effective distance of the guide rails 4 to each other with the Letter F denotes. This distance depends on the one hand on the total width A of a hinted furniture 6, the thickness B of the side walls 7 of the furniture 6 as well as the degree of angulation C of the furniture body fixed rails 8.

Da all die genannten Bauteile toleranzbehaftet sind, ist es ohne weiteres einleuchtend, daß der Abstand F der beiden Führungsschienen 4 zueinander auch innerhalb einer Möbelserie durchaus variabel sein kann.Since all the components mentioned are subject to tolerances, it is readily apparent that that the distance F of the two guide rails 4 to each other also within a furniture series can be quite variable.

Zweck der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es deshalb, eine insgesamt mit dem Bezugszeichen 9 versehene Vorrichtung zu schaffen, mittels derer eine Rastverbindung zwischen einem Schubkasten 1 und einer Führungsschiene 4 herstellbar ist, die unabhängig von vorhandenen Toleranzen eine zuverlässige Rastverbindung zwischen Schubkasten und Führungsschienen bewirkt.It is therefore an object of the present invention to provide a total reference numeral 9 provided device, by means of which a latching connection can be produced between a drawer 1 and a guide rail 4, which is independent from existing tolerances a reliable locking connection between Drawer and guide rails causes.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung 9 ist in an sich bekannter Weise mit einem federnden Rastelement 10 ausgestattet, welches von Hand betätigbar ist und eine Rastausnehmung 11 aufweist, in die eine an der Führungsschiene 4 vorgesehene Rastklinke 12 einrasten kann.The device 9 according to the invention is in a conventional manner with a resilient Locking element 10 is equipped, which is actuated by hand and a Detent recess 11, in which a provided on the guide rail 4 Locking latch 12 can engage.

Die in bekannter Weise an der Unterseite eines Schubkastens 1 montierte Vorrichtung 9 ist mit einem Basisteil 13 ausgestattet, welches ein von dem Rastelement 10 unabhängiges Bauteil ist. Dieses Basisteil 13 dient zur Festlegung am Schubkasten, beispielsweise an einer Schubkastenblende 14 oder am Schubkastenboden 2.The device mounted in a known manner on the underside of a drawer 1 9 is equipped with a base part 13, which is one of the locking element 10th independent component is. This base part 13 is used for fixing on the drawer, For example, on a drawer panel 14 or on the drawer bottom. 2

Das Rastelement 10 ist gegenüber dem Basisteil 13, welches bezogen auf den Schubkasten 1 als ortsfest bezeichnet werden kann, verschiebbar, und zwar parallel zum Boden 2.The locking element 10 is relative to the base part 13, which based on the Drawer 1 can be described as stationary, displaceable, in parallel to the ground 2.

Das Maß der möglichen Verschiebung ist in Figur 2 mit dem Buchstaben G bezeichnet.The extent of the possible displacement is indicated in FIG. 2 by the letter G.

Durch die Verschiebbarkeit des Rastelementes 10 relativ zum ortsfesten Basisteil 13 kann der sich aufgrund von Toleranzen ergebende Unterschied beim Abstand der Führungsschienen 4 zueinander ausgeglichen werden. By the displaceability of the locking element 10 relative to the stationary base part 13th can the difference in the distance between the resulting due to tolerances Guide rails 4 are balanced with each other.

Das Basisteil 13 und das Rastelement 10 sind unverlierbar miteinander verbunden, vorzugsweise durch einen Anschlagnocken 15, der die Verschiebemöglichkeit des Rastelementes 10 relativ zum Basisteil 13 begrenzt.The base part 13 and the locking element 10 are captively connected to each other, Preferably by a stop cam 15, the possibility of displacement of the Locking element 10 is limited relative to the base part 13.

Das Rastelement 10 ist mit einer Nut 16 versehen, in welche im montierten Zustand ein stirnseitiges Ende eines Schenkels 17 der Führungsschiene 4 eingreift. Hierdurch ist das Rastelement 10 im montierten Zustand relativ zur Führungsschiene 4 fixiert.The locking element 10 is provided with a groove 16, in which in the mounted state a front end of a leg 17 of the guide rail 4 engages. hereby is the locking element 10 in the mounted state relative to the guide rail. 4 fixed.

Zur Befestigung des Basisteiles 13 an einer Blende 14 oder einem Boden 2 eines Schubkastens 1 kann dieses Basisteil, wie in den Zeichnungen dargestellt, mit Durchgangsbohrungen 18 für Befestigungsschrauben, für Befestigungsniete oder dergleichen versehen sein, alternativ hierzu kann aber auch das Basisteil 13 mit angeformten Dübeln zum Einschlagen in entsprechende Bohrungen des Schubkastens ausgestattet sein.To attach the base part 13 to a panel 14 or a bottom 2 of a Drawer 1, this base part, as shown in the drawings, with Through holes 18 for mounting screws, for mounting rivets or The like may be provided, but alternatively, the base member 13 with integrally formed Dowels for driving into corresponding holes in the drawer be equipped.

Am Rastelement 10 ist ein parallel zum Basisteil 13 verschiebbarer und in jeder Verschiebeposition gesicherter Keil 19 vorgesehen, der zwecks Höhenverstellung des Schubkastens 1 mit einem keilartigen Ende 20 zwischen Schubkastenboden 2 und Führungsschiene 4 einschiebbar ist. Dies geht insbesondere aus den Figuren 8 und 9 hervor, wobei Figur 8 eine Position zeigt, in der das keilförmige Ende 20 unmittelbar an der Führungsschiene 4 anliegt, aber noch nicht unter diese Führungsschiene 4 geschoben ist und Figur 9 die maximale Verstellposition zeigt.On the locking element 10 is a parallel to the base member 13 displaceable and in each Moving position secured wedge 19 is provided, the purpose of height adjustment of the drawer 1 with a wedge-like end 20 between drawer bottom. 2 and guide rail 4 can be inserted. This goes in particular from FIGS. 8 and FIG. 9, wherein FIG. 8 shows a position in which the wedge-shaped end 20 is instantaneous on the guide rail 4 rests, but not yet under this guide rail 4 is pushed and Figure 9 shows the maximum adjustment position.

Durch den Keil 19 ist auf einfache Art und Weise eine Höhenjustierung des Schubkastens relativ zu den Führungsschienen 4 möglich.By the wedge 19 is in a simple way a height adjustment of the drawer relative to the guide rails 4 possible.

Die Sicherung des Keiles 19 gegenüber dem Rastelement 10 in jeder möglichen Verschiebeposition erfolgt durch sägezahnartige Rasten 21 am Rastelement 10 einerseits sowie durch entsprechende, sägezahnartige Rasten 22 am Keil 19 selbst, so wie Figur 4 dies besonders anschaulich zeigt. Securing the wedge 19 against the locking element 10 in every possible Displacement position is effected by sawtooth-like notches 21 on the locking element 10 on the one hand and by corresponding, sawtooth-like notches 22 on the wedge 19 itself, so as Figure 4 shows this particularly clear.

Die Figuren 5, 6 und 7 lassen erkennen, daß die Verbindung zwischen Rastelement 10, Basisteil 13 und Keil 19 durch angeformte Führungs- und Rastmittel in Form einer Clipsverbindung hergestellt wird.Figures 5, 6 and 7 show that the connection between locking element 10, base part 13 and wedge 19 by molded guide and locking means in the form a clip connection is made.

Der Keil 19 ist - in seiner Verschieberichtung gesehen - als symmetrisches Bauteil gestaltet, so daß dieser Keil 19 sowohl für links- wie auch für rechtsseitig verwendbare Rastelemente 10 einsetzbar ist.The wedge 19 is - seen in its direction of displacement - as a symmetrical component designed so that this wedge 19 can be used both for left and for right side Locking elements 10 can be used.

Basisteil 13, Rastelement 10 und Keil 19 sind bevorzugt aus Kunststoff hergestellt.Base part 13, locking element 10 and wedge 19 are preferably made of plastic.

In den Figuren 10-12 ist gezeigt, daß das Rastelement 10 gegenüber dem Basisteil über einen Exzenter 23 verstellbar sein kann. Über diesen Exzenter 23, der jede eingenommene Verstellposition zwischen Basisteil 13 und Rastelement 10 darüber hinaus sichert, kann eine horizontale Justierung eines Schubkastens bzw. dessen Schubkastenblende bewirkt werden.In the figures 10-12 it is shown that the locking element 10 relative to the base part can be adjustable via an eccentric 23. About this eccentric 23, each one taken Adjusting position between the base part 13 and locking element 10 above assures a horizontal adjustment of a drawer or its Drawer panel can be effected.

Beim Ausführungsbeispiel nach den Figuren 10-12 ist der Exzenter 23 so ausgebildet, daß dieser mittels eines Werkzeuges zu bedienen ist.In the embodiment according to FIGS 10-12 of the eccentric 23 is formed, that this is to be operated by means of a tool.

Figur 13 zeigt, daß ein Exzenter 23 auch mit einer radial vorstehend angeformten Handhabe 24 zu seiner Verstellung ausgestattet sein kann.FIG. 13 shows that an eccentric 23 is also formed with a radially protruding upper part Handle 24 may be equipped for its adjustment.

In Figur 14 ist eine Variante der Erfindung gezeigt, bei der jede Verschiebeposition zwischen dem Basisteil 13 und dem Rastelement 10 durch eine Feststellschraube 25 fixierbar ist, die das Rastelement 10 im Bereich eines die Verschiebung ermöglichenden Langloches 30 durchtritt.FIG. 14 shows a variant of the invention in which each displacement position between the base part 13 and the locking element 10 by a locking screw 25th can be fixed, which allows the locking element 10 in the region of a displacement Long hole 30 passes.

Figur 15 schließlich zeigt ein Ausführungsbeispiel, bei dem die Verstellung zwischen dem Basisteil 13 und dem Rastelement 10 durch ein Rändelrad 26 erfolgen kann, welches mit einer keilartigen Stirnfläche 27 versehen und innerhalb des Rastelementes 10 drehbar gelagert ist; Dieses Rändelrad 26 greift mit seinem gegenüber der keilartigen Stirnfläche abgesetzten scheibenartigen Abschnitt in eine Nut 28 des Basisteiles 13 ein. Wird dieses Rändelrad 26 nun gedreht, wird durch die keilartige Stirnfläche 27 des Rändelrades 26 das Rastelement 10 je nach Drehrichtung des Rändelrades 26 gegenüber dem Basisteil 13 verschoben.Figure 15 finally shows an embodiment in which the adjustment between the base part 13 and the locking element 10 by a knurled wheel 26 can, which provided with a wedge-like end face 27 and within the locking element 10 is rotatably mounted; This knurled wheel 26 engages with his the wedge-like end face remote disc-like portion in a groove 28 of the Base part 13 a. If this knurled wheel 26 is now turned, is by the wedge-like End face 27 of the knurled wheel 26, the locking element 10 depending on the direction of rotation of the Knurled wheel 26 relative to the base part 13 shifted.
