Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Anordnung mit Werkzeug zur Nachbearbeitung von Fugen aus dauerelastischer Fugenmasse, die von Kartusche abgebbar ist.The invention relates to an arrangement with tools for reworking joints of permanently elastic grout, which can be issued by the cartridge.

Es ist bekannt, daß elastische Fugenmassen wie z.B. Silikon und Acryl in Kartuschen abgefüllt sind. Die Kartuschen weisen eine zylindrische Form auf und sind an einem Ende mittels eines Deckels und einem an den Deckel angeformten Gewindestückes verschlossen und werden mittels einer an die Kartusche angehängten Auftragdüse und in Palettenform sortiert in den Handel geliefert und verkauft.
Üblicherweise werden die Kartuschen im Handel weiterhin an mehreren Stellen platziert, so daß je nach Baustoff und Anwendungsart geeignete Fugenmassen zur Verfügung stehen.It is known that elastic grouts such as silicone and acrylic are filled in cartridges. The cartridges have a cylindrical shape and are closed at one end by means of a lid and a molded onto the lid threaded piece and are by means of a to the Cartridge attached applicator and in palletized sorted sold and sold.
Usually, the cartridges are still placed in commerce in several places, so that depending on the material and type of application suitable grouts are available.

Weiterhin sind Werkzeuge zur Nacharbeitung von Fugenmassen (siehe EP 0 711 887 B1 ) und Abstreifwerkzeuge für dauerelastische Dichtmassen (siehe DE 198 26 535 A1 ) bekannt, die mehr oder weniger aufwendig verpackt im Handel angeboten werden. Soll der Kunde die Kartusche in Verbindung mit einem Werkzeug kaufen, müssen auch die Werkzeuge an mehreren Stellen platziert werden, so daß wertvoller Verkaufsraum für ein und dasselbe Produkt mehrmals benötigt wird. Weiterhin ist nicht jeder Kunde bereit, für die einmalige Nutzung einer Kartusche ein Werkzeug zu erwerben.Furthermore, tools for reworking joint compounds (see EP 0 711 887 B1 ) and stripping tools for permanently elastic sealants (see DE 198 26 535 A1 ), which are offered more or less expensive packaged in the trade. If the customer to buy the cartridge in conjunction with a tool, the tools must be placed in several places, so that valuable sales space for the same product is needed several times. Furthermore, not every customer is willing to buy a tool for the one-time use of a cartridge.

Anordnungen mit Kartusche und Werkzeug sind auch aus DE 100 31 611 , US 5017113 , US 3559234 oder DE 296 19 142 bekannt.Arrangements with cartridge and tool are also off DE 100 31 611 . US 5,017,113 . US 3559234 or DE 296 19 142 known.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, für Kartuschen der einleitend genannten Art ein Werkzeug anzugeben, daß kostengünstig herzustellen ist und vorzugsweise als Einmalwerkzeug ohne zusätzliche Verpackung in Verbindung mit Kartusche und Auftragdüse im Handel angeboten wird, ohne daß hiefür zusätzlich Platz und Verpackung erforderlich sind und derart, daß die Kartuschen weiterhin in Palettenform angeboten werden können.The invention has for its object to provide for cartridges of the aforementioned type a tool that is inexpensive to manufacture and is preferably offered as a disposable tool without additional packaging in conjunction with cartridge and applicator commercially, without requiring additional space and packaging are required and so in that the cartridges can still be offered in pallet form.

Diese Aufgabe wird durch die Ausbildung entsprechend dem Kennzeichen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Das erfindungsgemäße Werkzeug ist aus flexiblem Kunststoff und entspricht in seiner Grundfläche im wesentlichen der auf eine Ebene normal zur Zylinderachse projizierten Grundfläche der Kartusche einschließlich der angehängten Auftragdüse und ist mittels eines kreisförmigen Durchbruchs im Werkzeug, dessen Rand vorzugsweise flexibel ausgeführt ist, mit dem Gewinde der Kartusche verbindbar.This object is achieved by the training according to the characterizing part of claim 1. The tool according to the invention is made of flexible plastic and corresponds in its base substantially the projected on a plane normal to the cylinder axis base of the cartridge including the attached applicator and is by means of a circular opening in the tool, the edge is preferably made flexible, with the thread of the cartridge connectable.

Weitere Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, eine Anordnung mit Werkzeug der einleitend genannten Art derart zu konstruieren, daß ein Anbieten im Handel ohne zusätzliche Verpackung in Verbindung mit Kartusche und Auftragdüse erfolgen kann.Another object of the present invention is to construct an assembly with a tool of the type mentioned in the introduction such that it can be offered commercially without additional packaging in conjunction with the cartridge and applicator nozzle.

In vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist eine Anordung gemäß dem Anspruch 2 vorgesehen. Dieses eignet sich zur Verbindung mit dem Gewinde der Kartusche, kann aber auch mit der auf die Kartusche geschraubten Auftragdüse verbunden werden, und für die Lagerung der in Benutzung befindlichen Kartusche platzsparend mit der Kartusche angeordnet werden. Hierfür ist der Durchbruch vorzugsweise zahnradförmig ausgeführt und mit dem inneren Flankendurchmesser auf das Gewinde und mit dem äußeren Durchmesser auf die Auftragdüse abgestimmt.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, an arrangement according to claim 2 is provided. This is suitable for connection to the thread of the cartridge, but can also be connected to the screwed to the cartridge applicator, and are arranged to save space for storage of the cartridge in use with the cartridge. For this purpose, the breakthrough is preferably carried out gear-shaped and matched with the inner pitch diameter on the thread and with the outer diameter of the application nozzle.

Damit eine bezogen auf die projizierte Fläche der Kartusche einschließlich Auftragdüse platzsparende Ausrichtung des Werkzeuges im Handel gewährleistet ist und sich das Werkzeug gegenüber der Kartusche nicht verdreht, ist ebenfalls daran gedacht, eine normal zur Werkzeug Ebene stehende Rippe auszubilden, die im Eingriff mit dem zylindrischen Teil der Auftragdüse ist.In order for a space-saving alignment of the tool in relation to the projected area of the cartridge including applicator nozzle is guaranteed in the trade and the tool does not rotate relative to the cartridge, is also thought to form a normal to the tool plane standing rib, which engages the cylindrical part the application nozzle is.

Eine andere Ausführungsvariante besteht darin, das Werkzeug mit einer zusätzlichen im wesentlichen rechtwinkelig zur Grundfläche stehenden Haltelasche auszuführen und das Werkzeug parallel zu Kartuschenlängsachse anzuordnen, um auch andere vorzugsweise längliche Werkzeuggrundformen zu ermöglichen. Die Verbindung zwischen Haltelasche und Werkzeug ist in vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung querschnittlich ausgedünnt. Hierdurch ist ein Abtrennen der Haltelasche vom Werkzeug ohne zusätzliche Hilfsmittel gegeben und es wird ermöglicht, das Werkzeug mit Haltelasche zunächst in einfacher ebener Form herzustellen.Another variant is to perform the tool with an additional substantially perpendicular to the base holding tab and to arrange the tool parallel to the longitudinal axis of the cartridge to allow other preferably elongated tool base shapes. The connection between retaining tab and tool is thinned cross-section in an advantageous embodiment. As a result, a separation of the retaining tab is given by the tool without additional aids and it is possible to first produce the tool with retaining tab in a simple planar form.

Die Verbindung der Haltelasche mit dem Gewinde der Kartusche kann hierbei mittels einer ösenartigen Ausformung der Lasche oder dem auf der Werkzeuggrundfläche befindlichen kreis- und zahnradförmigen Durchbruch erfolgen.The connection of the retaining tab with the thread of the cartridge can in this case be effected by means of a loop-like formation of the tab or the circular and gear-shaped breakthrough located on the tool base.

Eine Anordnung dieser Art kann ebenfalls mittels einer in Papierform ausgeführten Haltelasche auf der das Werkzeug mittels einer Klebeverbindung gehalten wird gestaltet werden.An arrangement of this kind can also be designed by means of a holding tab in paper form on which the tool is held by means of an adhesive bond.

Eine weitere Ausführungsvariante besteht darin, das Werkzeug, die Haltelasche und die Auftragdüse einteilig auszuführen, indem die Haltelasche des Werkzeuges mit der Haltelasche der Kartusche im Bereich des Gewindes der Kartusche verbunden wird und in einem Stück durch Spritzgießen hergestellt wird. Das Werkzeug kann dabei parallel zur Kartuschenlängsachse angeordnet und alternativ mittels der kreis- und zahnradförmigen Aussparung auf der Grundfläche normal zur Zylinderachse verbunden werden. Weiterhin sind bei der parallelen Anordnung auch andere vorzugsweise längliche Werkzeuggrundformen möglich.A further embodiment consists of integrally forming the tool, the retaining tab and the applicator nozzle by connecting the retaining tab of the tool with the retaining tab of the cartridge in the region of the thread of the cartridge and is produced in one piece by injection molding. The tool can be arranged parallel to the cartridge longitudinal axis and, alternatively, connected by means of the circular and gear-shaped recess on the base normal to the cylinder axis. Furthermore, other preferably elongated basic tool shapes are possible in the parallel arrangement.

Das Werkzeug selbst sollte entlang seines umlaufenden Randes verschiedene Konturen und Geometrien aufweisen, um unterschiedliche Fugenformen zu gestalten und im wesentlichen eine konstante vom Werkstoff abhängige Dicke haben, um eine ausreichende Steifigkeit bei gleichzeitig verbleibender Flexibilität zu erreichen.The tool itself should have different contours and geometries along its peripheral edge to form different joint shapes and have substantially constant thickness dependent on the material to achieve sufficient rigidity while maintaining flexibility.

Die Ausführung kann als ebene Platte erfolgen. In vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung des Werkzeuges ist nur der Randbereich eben und die Verbindung des Randes erfolgt über eine schalenartig ausgeformte Fläche, so daß überschüssiges Material bei der Bearbeitung der Fugen abgetragen wird.The execution can be done as a flat plate. In an advantageous embodiment of the tool only the edge region is flat and the connection of the edge via a shell-like shaped surface, so that excess material is removed during the processing of the joints.

Die Ausgestaltung aller Kanten und Formen des Werkzeuges ist im Rahmen des der Erfindung zugrunde gelegten Gedankens beliebig. Bezogen auf die projizierte Grundfläche der Kartusche einschließlich angehängter Auftragsdüse besteht eine bevorzugte Ausgestaltung der Grundform des Werkzeuges im wesentlichen aus vier anschließenden geraden Kanten unterschiedlicher Länge, wobei zwei Kanten einen rechten Winkel bilden und die sich ergebenden verbleibenden Winkel mit kleinem und großem Kreisbogen abgerundet sind und im Bereich der geraden Abschnitte zusätzliche kreisförmige Aussparungen vorgesehen sind, um möglichst unterschiedliche Fugenformen zu ermöglichen.The design of all edges and shapes of the tool is arbitrary within the scope of the invention underlying idea. Based on the projected base of the cartridge including attached applicator nozzle, a preferred embodiment of the basic shape of the tool consists essentially of four adjoining straight edges of different lengths, two edges forming a right angle and the resulting remaining angles are rounded with small and large circular arc and in Area of the straight sections additional circular recesses are provided in order to allow different possible joint shapes.

Weiterhin ist daran gedacht die möglichen Fugenformen auf dem Werkzeug mittels aufgedruckter oder erhabener oder eingeprägter Formen auf dem Werkzeug darzustellen und dem Benutzer so in einfacher Form die unterschiedlichen Möglichkeiten zu veranschaulichen.Furthermore, it is thought to represent the possible joint shapes on the tool by means of printed or raised or embossed shapes on the tool and the user so in a simple form to illustrate the different possibilities.

Fig. 1 zeigt das Werkzeug (1) mit einer zylindrischen Kartusche (2) mit Deckel (8) und einem an den Deckel (8) angeformten Gewinde (3) und einer mittels Haltelasche an das Gewinde (3) der Kartusche (2) angehängten Auftragdüse (4). Die Anordnung des Werkzeuges (1) erfolgt auf dem Gewinde (3) und ist vorzugsweise normal zur Längsachse (5) der Kartusche (2). Die Gesamtgrundfläche (6) des Werkzeuges (1), definiert durch den umlaufenden Rand (7), entspricht im wesentlichen der in eine Ebene projizierten Umrißlinie (9) der Kartusche (2) und Auftragdüse (4). Fig. 1 shows the tool (1) with a cylindrical cartridge (2) with a lid (8) and an integrally formed on the lid (8) thread (3) and a means of retaining tab to the thread (3) of the cartridge (2) attached application nozzle (4 ). The arrangement of the tool (1) takes place on the thread (3) and is preferably normal to the longitudinal axis (5) of the cartridge (2). The total base area (6) of the tool (1), defined by the peripheral edge (7), substantially corresponds to the outlined in a plane outline (9) of the cartridge (2) and application nozzle (4).

Auf der Grundfläche (6) befindet sich eine zahnradförmige Aussparung (10), die die formschlüssige Verbindung mit dem Gewinde (3) gewährleistet. Der Ausschnitt (10) ist so auf der Grundfläche (6) positioniert, daß der umlaufende Rand (7) mit der Umrißlinie (9) zur Deckung kommt. Für eine Fixierung der Position des Werkzeuges (1) mit seinem Rand (7) gegenüber der Auftragdüse (4) ist an der Grundfläche (6) eine normal zur Grundfläche (6) stehende Rippe (11) angeordnet. Die Länge der Rippe (11) ist so gewählt, daß sie mit dem zylindrischen Gewindeteil (14) der Auftragdüse (4) in Eingriff kommt. Durch die Fixierung mittels der Rippe (11) relativ zur Auftragdüse wird eine Palettierung der Kartuschen (2) im Handel weiterhin ermöglicht.On the base (6) there is a gear-shaped recess (10), which ensures the positive connection with the thread (3). The cutout (10) is positioned on the base (6) so that the peripheral edge (7) coincides with the outline (9). For fixation of the position of the tool (1) with its edge (7) opposite the application nozzle (4), a rib (11) normal to the base surface (6) is arranged on the base surface (6). The length of the rib (11) is chosen so that it engages with the cylindrical threaded portion (14) of the applicator nozzle (4). By fixing by means of the rib (11) relative to the application nozzle, palletizing of the cartridges (2) is still commercially possible.

In Fig. 2 ist die Anordnung des Werkzeuges (1) bei aufgeschraubter Auftragdüse (4) ersichtlich. Dabei wird das Werkzeug (1) mittels der zahnradförmigen Aussparung (10) auf den kegelförmigen Teil (13) oder zylindrischen Gewindeteil (14) der Auftragdüse (4) aufgeschoben. Hierdurch wird eine einfache Aufbewahrung und Entsorgung des Werkzeuges in Verbindung mit der Kartusche (2) ermöglicht.In Fig. 2 the arrangement of the tool (1) with screwed application nozzle (4) can be seen. In this case, the tool (1) by means of the gear-shaped recess (10) on the conical part (13) or cylindrical threaded part (14) of the application nozzle (4) is pushed. This allows easy storage and disposal of the tool in conjunction with the cartridge (2).

Fig. 3 zeigt eine Ausführungsform, bei der zusätzlich eine Haltelasche (15) an das Werkzeug (1) angeformt ist. Die Haltelasche (15) ist an ihrem Ende ebenfalls mit einer zahnradförmigen Aussparung (16) versehen, mittels derer das Werkzeug mit dem Gewinde (3)der Kartusche (2) formschlüssig verbunden wird. Eine Ausführung des Endes der Haltelasche (15) mit einer ösenartigen Form ist ebenfalls denkbar. Die Ausrichtung der Werkzeuggrundfläche (6) erfolgt vorzugsweise parallel zur Zylinderachse (5) der Kartusche (2). Fig. 3 shows an embodiment in which additionally a retaining tab (15) is integrally formed on the tool (1). The retaining tab (15) is also provided at its end with a gear-shaped recess (16), by means of which the tool with the thread (3) of the cartridge (2) is positively connected. An embodiment of the end of the retaining tab (15) with a loop-like shape is also conceivable. The orientation of the tool base (6) is preferably parallel to the cylinder axis (5) of the cartridge (2).

Die Verbindung (17) der Haltelasche (15) mit dem Werkzeug (1) ist querschnittlich so ausgedünnt, daß die Verbindungsstelle (17) flexibel ist und das Werkzeug zunächst in ebener Form hergestellt wird und zur Benutzung ohne Hilfsmittel abgetrennt werden kann.The connection (17) of the retaining tab (15) with the tool (1) is thinned in a cross-section so that the connection point (17) is flexible and the tool initially in a plane Mold is made and can be separated for use without tools.

Weiterhin ist das Werkzeug (1) im Bereich der Verbindung (17) mit der Haltelasche (15 ) ausgeklinkt (18), so daß ein Abstand der Verbindungsstelle (17) zu einer möglichen Bearbeitungskante (20) gewährleistet ist.Furthermore, the tool (1) in the region of the connection (17) with the retaining lug (15) is notched (18), so that a distance of the connection point (17) is ensured to a possible processing edge (20).

Bei der Ausführungsform in Fig.4 ist die Haltelasche (15) des Werkzeuges (1) im Bereich der zahnradförmigen Aussparung (16) mit der Haltelasche (12) der Auftragdüse (4) verbunden. Werkzeug (1) und Auftragdüse (4) werden auf diese Weise einteilig ausgeführt und mit dem Gewinde (3) der Kartusche (2) formschlüssig verbunden.In the embodiment in Figure 4 the holding lug (15) of the tool (1) in the region of the gear-shaped recess (16) with the retaining lug (12) of the applicator nozzle (4) is connected. Tool (1) and application nozzle (4) are made in one piece in this way and positively connected to the thread (3) of the cartridge (2).

Aus der Ansicht auf das Werkzeug in Fig. 5 ist eine vorteilhafte Gestaltung des Werkzeuges (1) zu erkennen. Der umlaufende Rand (7) besteht aus vier anschließenden geraden Kanten (20, 22, 23, 24), wobei zwei Kanten (23, 24) einen rechten Winkel bilden. Drei Kanten (24, 20, 22) bilden einen Winkel kleiner 90° und zwei Kanten (22, 23) einen Winkel größer 90°. Die Übergänge der Kanten (22, 20, 24), die einen spitzen Winkel bilden, sind abgerundet, wobei die Größe der Abrundungen (25, 26) unterschiedlich gewählt ist.From the view on the tool in Fig. 5 is an advantageous design of the tool (1) to recognize. The peripheral edge (7) consists of four adjacent straight edges (20, 22, 23, 24), wherein two edges (23, 24) form a right angle. Three edges (24, 20, 22) form an angle less than 90 ° and two edges (22, 23) form an angle greater than 90 °. The transitions of the edges (22, 20, 24), which form an acute angle, are rounded, the size of the rounded portions (25, 26) being chosen differently.

Eine der geraden Kanten (24) ist weiterhin mit einer halbkreisförmigen Aussparung (27) versehen, so daß auch erhabene Fugen möglich sind.One of the straight edges (24) is further provided with a semicircular recess (27), so that even raised joints are possible.

Eine andere gerade Kante (20) ist mit einer im rechten Winkel zueinander stehenden und im Übergang der Winkel abgerundeten Aussparung (28) versehen.Another straight edge (20) is provided with a mutually perpendicular and rounded in the transition of the angle recess (28).

Im Anschluß an die Aussparung (28) ist vorzugsweise die Verbindung (17) zwischen Haltelasche (15) und der Ausklinkung (18) der in Fig.3 und Fig. 4 dargestellten Ausführungsformen anzuordnen.Following the recess (28) is preferably the connection (17) between the retaining tab (15) and the notch (18) the in Figure 3 and Fig. 4 to arrange shown embodiments.

Mittels der Symbole (32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37) werden die möglichen Fugenformen in aufgedruckter oder erhabener oder eingeprägter Form in einfacher Weise auf dem Werkzeug (1) dargestellt und dem Benutzer die unterschiedlichen Fugenformen veranschaulicht.By means of the symbols (32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37), the possible joint shapes in printed or raised or embossed form are displayed in a simple manner on the tool (1) and the user is shown the different joint shapes.

Aus der Querschnittdarstellung in Fig. 6 ist zu erkennen, daß das Werkzeug (1) im wesentlichen aus einer vom Werkstoff abhängigen Dicke (29) besteht.From the cross section in Fig. 6 It can be seen that the tool (1) consists essentially of a material-dependent thickness (29).

Entlang des umlaufenden Randes (7) ist das Werkzeug (1) zunächst eben (31) ausgeführt. Die Verbindung des umlaufendes Randes erfolgt mittels einer schalenartig ausgeformten Fläche (32), so daß bei der Bearbeitung von Fugen überschüssiges Material leicht abgetragen werden kann.Along the peripheral edge (7), the tool (1) is initially flat (31). The compound of the peripheral edge is effected by means of a shell-like shaped surface (32), so that excess material can be easily removed during the processing of joints.

Figur 7 zeigt eine schematische Darstellung einer weiteren Ausführungsform. Die Auftragsdüse (4) ist hier mit dem Rand ihres Sockelringes unmittelbar am Rand (7) des Werkzeuges (1) angeformt. Es wird hierdurch eine vereinfachte spritzgußtechnisch Herstellung unterstützt und es kann eine Materialeinsparung erreicht werden. Darüber hinaus wird auch eine kompaktere Gestaltung der Gesamtvorrichtung unterstützt. FIG. 7 shows a schematic representation of another embodiment. The application nozzle (4) is integrally formed here with the edge of its base ring directly on the edge (7) of the tool (1). It is hereby supported a simplified injection molding technology production and it can be achieved material savings. In addition, a more compact design of the overall device is supported.
