Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Schnellspanner gemäß dem Oberbegriff des unabhängigen Anspruchs 1. Ein solcher Schnellspanner ist aus dem Dokument US 4 141 543 A bekannt.The invention relates to a quick release according to the preamble of independent claim 1. Such a quick release is from the document US 4 141 543 A known.

Bei bekannten Schnellspannern wird der Grundkörper an einem ersten Gegenstand befestigt. Mit der Spannbacke lässt sich entweder ein zweiter Gegenstand zwischen dem ersten Gegenstand und der Spannbacke einspannen oder ein zweiter Gegenstand gegenüber dem ersten Gegenstand verspannen. Das Spannen erfolgt mittels eines Spannbügels, der mittelbar oder unmittelbar auf die Spannbacke drückt. Der Spannbügel kann in der Spannstellung verriegelt werden. Da häufig der Spannbügel mit einer Hand bedient werden muss und der einzuspannende zweite Gegenstand mit der anderen Hand gehalten werden muss, ist das Verriegeln in der Spannstellung und das Entriegeln schwer durchzuführen.In known quick releases the base body is attached to a first object. With the clamping jaw either a second object can be clamped between the first object and the clamping jaw or a second object can be clamped in relation to the first object. The clamping takes place by means of a clamping bracket which presses directly or indirectly on the clamping jaw. The clamping bracket can be locked in the clamping position. Since frequently the clamping bracket has to be operated with one hand and the second object to be clamped must be held with the other hand, the locking in the clamping position and the unlocking is difficult to perform.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es, daher den eingangs genannten Schnellverschluss so weiter zu entwickeln, dass einfach Ver- und Entriegelt werden kann.Object of the present invention is therefore to further develop the above-mentioned quick release so that can be easily locked and unlocked.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe mittels eines Schnellspanners gemäß Anspruch 1 gelöst, wobei die Verriegelung durch den Betätigungsgriff, insbesondere durch axiales Betätigen des Betätigungsgriffs, lösbar ist. Durch diese Maßnahme ist der Schnellspanner einhändig bedienbar. Die Verriegelung in der Spannstellung geschieht automatisch. Zum Entriegeln muss nur der Betätigungsgriff betätigt werden. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, wenn der Betätigungsgriff zum Entriegeln nur in axialer Richtung des Verriegelungselements bewegt werden muss.According to the invention this object is achieved by means of a quick release according to claim 1, wherein the locking by the actuating handle, in particular by axial actuation of the actuating handle, is releasable. By this measure, the quick release is operated with one hand. The locking in the clamping position happens automatically. To unlock only the operating handle must be pressed. It is particularly advantageous if the operating handle must be moved to unlock only in the axial direction of the locking element.

Bei einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist ein Spannelement vorgesehen, das einenends an dem Spannbügel und anderenends an der Spannbacke schwenkbar gelagert ist. Durch diese Maßnahme lässt sich zum einen ein wirksames Spannen erreichen und zum anderen ein selbsttätiger Verriegelungsmechanismus einfach realisieren.In a particularly preferred embodiment, a clamping element is provided which is pivotally mounted at one end to the clamping bracket and the other end to the clamping jaw. By this measure, on the one hand can achieve an effective clamping and on the other realize an automatic locking mechanism easy.

Wenn das Spannelement an seinem mit dem Spannbügel schwenkbar verbundenen Ende eine Aufnahme für das Verriegelungselement aufweist, können durch Zusammenwirken des Spannteils mit dem Verriegelungselement sowohl das Spannelement als auch der Spannbügel in der Spannstellung verriegelt werden. Ein ungewolltes Öffnen des Schnellspanners wird vermieden.If the clamping element has a receptacle for the locking element at its end pivotally connected to the clamping bracket, both the clamping element and the clamping bracket can be locked in the clamping position by cooperation of the clamping part with the locking element. Unintentional opening of the quick release is avoided.

Vorteilhafterweise ist am Spannbügel eine Gleitfläche vorgesehen, entlang der das Verriegelungselement während des Spannvorgangs in die Verriegelungsstellung gleiten kann. Durch das Gleiten entlang der Gleitfläche wird das Verriegelungselement aus seiner Rückstellposition bzw. Verriegelungsposition verfahren und in die Aufnahme des Spannelements geführt.Advantageously, a sliding surface is provided on the clamping bar, along which the locking element can slide during the clamping operation in the locking position. By sliding along the sliding surface, the locking element is moved from its restoring position or locking position and guided into the receptacle of the clamping element.

Ist das Verriegelungselement eine Verriegelungsachse, die im Spannbügel gegen eine Rückstellkraft axial beweglich gelagert ist, kann die selbsttätige Verriegelung und die Entriegelung durch Betätigen des Betätigungsgriffs in axialer Richtung der Verriegelungsachse besonders einfach realisiert werden.If the locking element is a locking axle, which is mounted axially movably in the clamping bracket against a restoring force, the automatic locking and the unlocking can be realized particularly easily by actuating the actuating handle in the axial direction of the locking axle.

Wenn das Verriegelungselement einenends mit dem Betätigungsgriff verbunden ist, muss zum Entriegeln der Betätigungsgriff nur von dem Grundkörper weg bewegt werden.If the locking element is connected at one end to the operating handle, the operating handle only has to be moved away from the main body for unlocking.

Bei einer Ausführungsform ist das Verriegelungselement an seinem freien Ende an die Aufnahme des Spannelements angepasst. Dadurch wird eine besonders sichere und spielfreie Verriegelung sicher gestellt.In one embodiment, the locking element is adapted at its free end to the receptacle of the clamping element. This ensures a particularly secure and backlash-free locking.

Besonders bevorzugt ist es, wenn die Rückstellkraft durch ein Rückstellelement, wie z.B. ein Federelement erzeugt wird und das Rückstellelement sowie eine Lagerung des Verriegelungselements im Betätigungsgriff angeordnet sind. Die die selbsttätige Verriegelung bewirkenden und das einfache Entriegeln ermöglichenden Bauteile sind dadurch vor Verschmutzung und Beschädigung geschützt.It is particularly preferred if the restoring force is determined by a return element, such as a spring element is generated and the return element and a bearing of the locking element are arranged in the operating handle. The automatic locking effecting and easy unlocking enabling components are thus protected from contamination and damage.

Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung eines Ausführungsbeispiels der Erfindung, anhand den Figuren der Zeichnung, die erfindungswesentliche Einzelheiten zeigen, und aus den Ansprüchen. Die einzelnen Merkmale können je einzeln für sich oder zu mehreren in beliebiger Kombination bei einer Variante der Erfindung verwirklicht sein.Further features and advantages of the invention will become apparent from the following description of an embodiment of the invention, with reference to the figures of the drawing, the invention essential details show, and from the claims. The individual characteristics can each be implemented individually or in combination in any combination in a variant of the invention.

An embodiment of the quick release according to the invention is shown in the schematic drawing and will be explained in the following description. It shows:
Fig. 1
a perspective view of a quick release in the unlocked state;
Fig. 2
a perspective view of the quick release of Fig. 1 in locked condition; and
Fig. 3
an exploded view of the tension bracket and operating handle of the quick release.

Fig. 1 zeigt einen Schnellspanner 1, der einen Grundkörper 2 und eine mit dem Grundkörper 2 schwenkbar verbundene Spannbacke 3 aufweist. Der Grundkörper 2 weist Durchgangslöcher 4 auf, über die er an einem nicht dargestellten Gegenstand, wie z.B. einer Werkbank, befestigbar ist. Zwischen dem nicht gezeigten Gegenstand und der Spannbacke 3 kann ein einzuspannendes Teil eingespannt werden. Am Grundkörper 2 ist ferner ein Spannbügel 5 an einem Ende um eine Schwenkachse 6 schwenkbar gelagert. Der Spannbügel 5 weist am entgegengesetzten Ende einen Betätigungsgriff 7 auf. Der Spannbügel 5 steht mit der Spannbacke 3 über ein Spannelement 8 in Verbindung, wobei das Spannelement 8 mit seinem einen Ende an der Spannbacke 3 um eine Schwenkachse 9, die zwischen den Enden der Spannbacke 3 angeordnet ist, und mit seinem anderen Ende an dem Spannbügel 5 um eine Schwenkachse 10, die zwischen den Enden des Spannbügels 5 angeordnet ist, schwenkbar gelagert ist. Das Spannelement 8 weist an seinem mit dem Spannbügel 5 schwenkbar verbundenen Ende eine gekrümmte Gleitfläche 11 auf, an der das freie Ende 12 eines als Verriegelungsachse ausgebildeten Verriegelungselements 13 während des Spannvorgangs entlang gleitet, ehe es in eine Aufnahme 14 des Spannelements 8 einrastet. Das freie Ende 12 des Verriegelungselements 13 ist dabei abgeflacht und somit an die Aufnahme 14 angepasst. Beim Spannen wird der Betätigungsgriff 7 in Pfeilrichtung 15 bewegt. Dabei wird die Klemmbacke 3 über das Spannelement 8 zwangsgeführt und bewegt sich in Richtung auf ein einzuspannendes Teil. Das Verriegelungselement 13 gleitet entlang der Gleitfläche 11 und wird dabei gegen eine Rückstellkraft axial in Richtung des Betätigungsgriffs 7 verschoben. Fig. 1 shows a quick release 1, which has a base body 2 and a clamping jaw 3 pivotally connected to the base body 2. The main body 2 has through holes 4, via which it can be fastened to an object, not shown, such as a workbench. Between the not shown object and the clamping jaw 3 a clamped part can be clamped. On the main body 2, a clamping bracket 5 is also pivotally mounted at one end about a pivot axis 6. The clamping bracket 5 has at the opposite end an operating handle. 7 on. The clamping bracket 5 is connected to the clamping jaw 3 via a clamping element 8 in connection, wherein the clamping element 8 with its one end on the clamping jaw 3 about a pivot axis 9 which is disposed between the ends of the clamping jaw 3, and with its other end to the clamping bracket 5 about a pivot axis 10 which is arranged between the ends of the tension bow 5, is pivotally mounted. The clamping element 8 has at its end pivotally connected to the clamping bracket 5 a curved sliding surface 11, on which the free end 12 of a locking axis formed as a locking element 13 slides during the clamping operation before it engages in a receptacle 14 of the clamping element 8. The free end 12 of the locking element 13 is flattened and thus adapted to the receptacle 14. When clamping the operating handle 7 is moved in the direction of arrow 15. In this case, the clamping jaw 3 is forcibly guided over the clamping element 8 and moves in the direction of a part to be clamped. The locking element 13 slides along the sliding surface 11 and is displaced axially against a restoring force in the direction of the actuating handle 7.

Fig. 2 zeigt den Schnellspanner 1 in seiner verriegelten Spannstellung. In der Spannstellung steht das Spannelement 8 nahezu rechtwinklig zu der Spannbacke 3 und übt die maximale Spannkraft aus. Das Verriegelungselement 13 wurde aufgrund der darauf wirkenden Rückstellkraft automatisch in die Aufnahme 14 bewegt. Dadurch steht der Spannbügel 5 in der Spannstellung fest. Der Eingriff des Verriegelungselements 13 in die Aufnahme 14 des Spannelements 8 verhindert ein Verschwenken des Spannelements um die Schwenkachsen 9, 10 und somit ein Öffnen des Schnellspanners 1. Vor dem Einrasten gleitet das Verriegelungselement 13 entlang einer ebenen Fläche 16, wodurch eine feste Verspannung sicher gestellt wird. Zum Lösen der Spannstellung muss der Verriegelungsmechanismus gelöst werden. Dazu wird der Betätigungsgriff 7 in Pfeilrichtung 17 bewegt. Das damit verbundene Verriegelungselement 13 wird dadurch aus der Aufnahme 14 gezogen und die Verriegelung aufgehoben. Der Schnellspanner kann geöffnet werden. Fig. 2 shows the quick release 1 in its locked clamping position. In the clamping position, the clamping element 8 is almost at right angles to the clamping jaw 3 and exerts the maximum clamping force. The locking element 13 was automatically moved into the receptacle 14 due to the restoring force acting thereon. As a result, the clamping bracket 5 is fixed in the clamping position. The engagement the locking element 13 in the receptacle 14 of the clamping element 8 prevents pivoting of the clamping element about the pivot axes 9, 10 and thus opening the quick release 1. Before locking engages the locking member 13 along a flat surface 16, whereby a firm clamping is ensured. To release the clamping position of the locking mechanism must be solved. For this purpose, the operating handle 7 is moved in the direction of arrow 17. The associated locking element 13 is thereby pulled out of the receptacle 14 and released the lock. The quick release can be opened.

Fig. 3 zeigt eine Explosionsdarstellung des Spannbügels 5 und Betätigungsgriffs 7 des Schnellspanners, wobei den in den Figuren 1 und 2 entsprechende Teile mit gleichen Bezugsziffern bezeichnet sind. Der Spannbügel 5 weist zwei im Wesentlichen parallele Bügelarme 21, 22 auf, die über einen Steg 23 miteinander verbunden sind. Die Bügelarme 21, 22 weisen Rastnasenaufnahmen 24 auf, in die eine Führung 25 des Verriegelungselements 13 mit Rastnasen 26 einclipsbar ist. In der Führung 25 ist das Verriegelungselement 13 axial verschieblich gelagert, wobei das Verriegelungselement 13 durch ein als Schraubenfeder ausgebildetes Federelement 27 geführt ist, das sich einenends an einer mit dem Verriegelungselement 13 verbundenen Sicherungsscheibe 29 und anderenends an der Führung 25 abstützt. Das Federelement 27 übt eine Rückstellkraft auf das Verriegelungselement 13 aus und ist bestrebt, dieses in Pfeilrichtung 28 zu drücken. Die Montage des Verriegelungselements 13 in der Führung 25 erfolgt durch Eindrücken in die V-förmigen Montageführungen 30. An dem Ende 31 des Verriegelungselements 13 ist ein Verriegelungsgriff 32 befestigt, der zusammen mit der Oberschale 33 und der Unterschale 34 den Betätigungsgriff 7 darstellt. Der Verriegelungsgriff 32 kann mit seiner Halterung 35 auf das Verriegelungselement 13 aufgesteckt, aufgeschraubt oder auf andere Art und Weise befestigt sein. Die Ober- und Unterschale 33, 34 werden gegen den Verriegelungsgriff 32 gedrückt und formschlüssig an diesem gehalten. Die Ober- und Unterschale 33, 34 bilden einen Hohlraum, in dem die Führung 25, das Federelement 27 und abschnittsweise das Verriegelungselement 13 angeordnet sind. Bei Zusammengebautem Verriegelungsmechanismus können der Betätigungsgriff und das Verriegelungselement 13 relativ zu der Führung 25 und dem Spannbügel 5 in axialer Richtung des Verriegelungselements 13 entgegen der Rückstellkraft des Federelements 27 bewegt werden. Durch eine Bewegung des Betätigungsgriffs entgegen der Pfeilrichtung 28 kann also das Verriegelungselement 13 aus seiner Verriegelungsposition bewegt werden. Fig. 3 shows an exploded view of the tension bracket 5 and operating handle 7 of the quick release, wherein the in the FIGS. 1 and 2 corresponding parts are designated by the same reference numerals. The clamping bracket 5 has two substantially parallel bracket arms 21, 22, which are connected to each other via a web 23. The hanger arms 21, 22 have latching nose receptacles 24 into which a guide 25 of the locking element 13 with latching lugs 26 can be clipped. In the guide 25, the locking element 13 is mounted axially displaceable, wherein the locking element 13 is guided by a helical spring designed as a spring element 27, which is supported at one end to a locking member 13 connected to the locking washer 29 and the other end on the guide 25. The spring element 27 exerts a restoring force on the locking element 13 and endeavors to press it in the direction of the arrow 28. The assembly of the locking element 13 in the guide 25 is effected by pressing into the V-shaped mounting guides 30. At the end 31 of the locking element 13, a locking handle 32 is attached, which represents the actuating handle 7 together with the upper shell 33 and the lower shell 34. The locking handle 32 can be plugged with its holder 35 on the locking element 13, screwed or secured in any other way. The upper and lower shell 33, 34 are pressed against the locking handle 32 and held positively on this. The upper and lower shell 33, 34 form a cavity in which the guide 25, the spring element 27 and sections of the locking element 13 are arranged. When the locking mechanism is assembled, the operating handle and the locking member 13 can be moved relative to the guide 25 and the tension bracket 5 in the axial direction of the locking member 13 against the restoring force of the spring member 27. By a movement of the actuating handle against the arrow direction 28 so the locking element 13 can be moved from its locking position.
