Die Erfindung betrifft eine Armstütze mit einem an einem Untergestell eines Stuhles, Sessels o.dgl. befestigten Armstützenträger, dessen rohrförmig ausgebildeter und mit voneinander beabstandeten Rastausnehmungen versehener Armstützenhalter von einer mit der Armauflage verbundenen Führungshülse im Wesentlichen formschlüssig übergriffen ist, wobei die Führungshülse mit Armauflage gegenüber dem Armstützenhalter in Schritten verschiebbar ist, und wobei die Rastmechanik als ein in der Führungshülse einführbares Rastmittel ausgebildet ist.The invention relates to an armrest with a on a base a chair, armchair or the like attached armrest support, whose tubular formed and with spaced-apart locking recesses provided armrest holder from one with the armrest connected guide sleeve overlapped essentially positively is, the guide sleeve with armrest opposite the armrest holder is displaceable in steps, and wherein the locking mechanism as a latching means which can be inserted into the guide sleeve is formed.
Aus der EP 1 258 209 ist ein Verstellmechanismus für ein gegenüber einem Gestell zu verstellendes Teil bekannt. Als Ausführungsbeispiel wird eine Armstütze beschrieben, die gegenüber dem Untergestell des Stuhles höhenverstellbar ist. Dazu wird ein Armstützenhalter mit dem Untergestell des Stuhles so verbunden, dass er (stuhl-)gestellfest angeordnet ist. Mit der Armauflage ist eine Führungshülse verbunden, die den Armstützenhalter übergreifend auf ihm verschieblich angeordnet ist. Zur schrittweisen Verstellung der Höhe der Armauflage ist eine Rastmechanik vorgesehen, die in dem Armstützenhalter mit der Armauflage verbunden ist. Dazu ist dieser Armstützenhalter zumindest teilweise als Rohr ausgebildet, in dessen Hohlraum die Rastmechanik eingesetzt wird. Diese wird von einer Verstellkartusche mit hohlem Innenraum und mit voneinander beabstandeten Rastöffnungen gebildet, die fest in den Armstützenhalter eingesetzt sind. Der Hohlraum dieser Verstellkartusche nimmt ein gegenüber der Verstellkartusche verschiebbares Verstellschwert auf, dessen Kopf mit der Armauflage verbunden ist, und in dem eine Auslösestange verschiebbar geführt ist. Diese Auslösestange weist an dem in das Verstellschwert eingeführten Ende ein Fenster mit einer Schrägführung auf, die als Führungskulisse für einen Sperrkörper dient, der seitlich überstehend mit seinen Überständen in dem Fenster geführt ist. Bei Betätigung dieser Auslösestange wird der Sperrkörper rechtwinklig zur Achse des Verstellschwertes so bewegt, dass seine Überstände in eine der korrespondierenden Rastöffnungen einführbar bzw. aus diesen heraus bewegbar ist. Dieser Aufbau einer Höhenverstellung einer Armstütze mit seiner Reihe von Einzelteilen ist äußert komplex aufgebaut und so nicht einfach und wirtschaftlich herstellbar.EP 1 258 209 describes an adjustment mechanism for one known part of a frame to be adjusted. As an embodiment an armrest is described, which is opposite the base of the Chair is adjustable in height. For this, an armrest holder with the Base frame of the chair connected in such a way that it is (chair) fixed to the frame is arranged. A guide sleeve is connected to the armrest, which slidably arranged across the armrest holder on it is. For gradually adjusting the height of the armrest a locking mechanism is provided which in the armrest holder with the Armrest is connected. This is at least this armrest holder partially designed as a tube, in the cavity of the locking mechanism is used. This is from an adjustable cartridge with a hollow Interior and formed with spaced-apart locking openings, which are firmly inserted in the armrest holder. The cavity of this Adjustment cartridge takes a displaceable compared to the adjustment cartridge Adjustable sword, whose head is connected to the armrest is, and in which a trigger rod is guided. This trigger bar points to the one inserted into the adjustment sword End a window with an oblique guide, which acts as a guide backdrop serves for a locking body that protrudes laterally with its Protrusions in the window. When this trigger bar is actuated the locking body becomes perpendicular to the axis of the adjustment sword so moved that its supernatants correspond to one of the Locking openings can be inserted or moved out of them. This construction of a height adjustment of an armrest with its row of individual parts is extremely complex and not easy and economically producible.
Somit ergibt sich die Aufgabenstellung, eine gattungsgemäße Armstütze, die höhenverstellbar ist, vorzuschlagen, deren vereinfachter Aufbau wirtschaftlich herstellbar ist.This results in the task, a generic armrest, which is adjustable in height to propose its simplified Structure is economically producible.

Als Rastmittel ist in den Hohlraum des Armstützenhalters ein Rasteinschub eingesetzt, der im Wesentlichen die Form eines rechtwinkligspitzwinkligen Dreiecks aufweist. Seine dem rechten Winkel entsprechende Ecke ist mit seitlich überstehenden Achsstummeln versehen, die im Armstützenträgerkopf gelagert sind, so dass der Rasteinschub um diese Achse geschwenkt werden kann. Zum Auslösen der Schwenkbewegung ist dessen dem stumpferen der beiden restlichen Winkel zugeordnete Ecke als Auslöshebel ausgebildet und aus dem Armstützenträgerkopf so herausgeführt, dass eine Bedienung durch den Sitzenden einfach möglich ist, wenn dieser die Armauflage untergreift. Nahe der dritten Ecke weist der Rasteinschub eine Rastnase auf, die mit den Rastausnehmungen zusammenwirkt. An diese dritte Ecke des Rasteinsatzes ist eine Rückstellfeder angeformt, die sich an der Innenwandung abstützt, die den Rastausnehmungen gegenüberliegt. Mit dieser Anordnung gelingt es, die Rastmechanik mit dem in die Führungshülse einführbaren Rastmittel so auszubilden, dass nur ein Teil hergestellt und eingesetzt werden muss.As a locking means is a snap-in module in the cavity of the armrest holder used, which is essentially the shape of a right-angled acute angle Triangle. Its right angle Corner is provided with stub axles that protrude to the side are mounted in the arm support head, so that the snap-in module can be pivoted about this axis. To trigger the swivel movement is the one associated with the more obtuse of the two remaining angles Corner designed as a release lever and from the armrest support head led out so that operation by the seated person is easy is possible if it grips under the armrest. Close to The third corner of the snap-in module has a snap-in lug that matches the Interlocking recesses cooperate. At this third corner of the rest area is a return spring formed on the inner wall supports, which is opposite the locking recesses. With this arrangement succeeds in locking mechanism with the insertable into the guide sleeve Design locking devices so that only one part is manufactured and must be used.
Dieser Rasteinsatz wird dabei mit einer Riegelplatte, die auf den Kopf des Armstützenträger aufgeschraubt wird, in seiner Position gehalten, wobei die Achsstummel in entsprechenden Ausnehmungen des Armstützenträgerkopf liegen. Diese Riegelplatte ist vorteilhaft so ausgebildet, dass sie mit der Halteschraubenaufnahme für eine der Halteschrauben versehen ist. So kann der Auslösehebel zentral in Flucht mit dem Rasteinsatz ausgebildet werden, der dann eine Ausformung derart aufweist, dass er unter der Riegelplatte durchgeführt werden kann.This locking insert is with a locking plate on the Head of the armrest support is screwed into place held, the stub axles in corresponding recesses of the Arm support head are lying. This locking plate is advantageous trained that with the retaining screw holder for one of the Holding screws is provided. So the release lever can be centrally in Escape are formed with the locking insert, which is then a formation has such that it is carried out under the locking plate can be.
Die an das freie Ende des Rasteinsatzes angeformte Rückstellfeder ist U- oder V-förmig ausgebildet. Ihr vorteilhaft abgerundetes freies Ende bildet einen Kreisbogen, der auf der den Rastausnehmungen gegenüberliegenden Innenwandung des den Rasteinsatz aufnehmenden Schlitzes anliegt und beim Spannen bzw. Entspannen der Rückstellfeder "abrollen" kann.The return spring is molded onto the free end of the locking insert U or V-shaped. Your advantageously rounded free The end forms a circular arc on the opposite of the recesses Inner wall of the slot receiving the locking insert is present and "unroll" when the return spring is tensioned or released can.
Vorteilhaft wird der Rasteinsatz einstückig aus einem Kunststoff als Spritzgussteil geformt. Der Auslösehebel ist dabei ebenso angeformt, wie auch die Rückstellfeder. Diese Herstellung stellt eine wirtschaftliche Fertigung schon bei mittleren Stückzahlen sicher. Als Kunststoff wird vorteilhaft ein thermoplastischer Kunststoff hoher Festigkeit, etwa ein thermoplastisches Polykondensat, beispielsweise ein Polyamid oder Polycarbonat, ggf. noch mit Fasernverstärkung, oder ein Kunststoff hoher Elastizität, etwa ein thermoplastisches Polymerisat, beispielsweise ein Polyoxymethylen oder Polyacetal. The locking insert is advantageously made in one piece from a plastic Injection molded part. The trigger lever is also molded, as well as the return spring. This manufacture represents an economical one Production safe even with medium quantities. As Plastic is advantageously a higher thermoplastic Strength, such as a thermoplastic polycondensate, for example a polyamide or polycarbonate, possibly with fiber reinforcement, or a plastic with high elasticity, such as a thermoplastic polymer, for example a polyoxymethylene or polyacetal.

Am Untergestell eines Stuhles (beides nicht näher dargestellt) sind
beidseits Armstützen vorgesehen, die mit dem Untergestell verbunden
sind. Dazu weist die Armstütze einen Armstützenhalter 15 auf, der mit
einem Mittel zum Verbinden mit dem Untergestell des Stuhles - hier
durch den Winkelansatz 15.1 dargestellt - versehen ist. Auf diesen so
an den Stuhl gestellfest angesetzten Armstützenhalter 15 ist der Armstützenträger
10 mit seiner Hülse 11 so aufgesetzt, dass der Armstützenträgerkopf
10.1 freistehend die Armauflage 20 aufnehmen kann, die
mittels der durch die Halteschraubenaufnahmen 14 geführten und in
dieser verschraubten Halteschraube 21 angeschraubt wird. Diese an den
Armstützenträgerkopf 10.1 angesetzte Führungshülse 11 nimmt den Armstützenhalter
15 so auf, dass die Führungshülse 11 zur Höhenverstellung
in etwa vertikaler Richtung verschoben werden kann. Zum Ausgleich
von Toleranzen und zum Hemmen der Bewegung sind Federeinlagen
15.2 zumindest einseitig an dem Armstützenhalter 15 angeordnet. Diese
Federeinlagen 15.2 sind beispielsweise als Spange mit Schenkeln mit
nach außen gerichteten Wellen ausgebildet, auf deren niedergedrückten
Spitzen die Hülse 11 spielfrei mit leichtem Lauf gleitet und in Ruhe
spielfrei ohne Klappern gelagert ist.On the base of a chair (neither of which are shown)
Armrests provided on both sides, which are connected to the base
are. For this purpose, the armrest has an
Um die Höheneinstellung fixieren zu können, sind Rastmittel vorgesehen,
die zum Bewegen ausgelöst werden können. Diese bestehen aus einem
in einen korrespondierenden Schlitz in dem Armstützenhalter 15
eingesetzten Rasteinschub 17. Dieser ist etwa in Form eines rechtwinkligen
Dreiecks ausgebildet, wobei an der dem rechten Winkel entsprechenden
Ecke Achsstummel 17.2 vorgesehen sind Diese Achsstummel 17.2
werden in Achsstummelaufnahmen im Armstützenträgerkopf 10.1 eingesetzt,
so dass der Rasteinschub 17 schwenkbar gehalten ist. Das Dreieck
des Rasteinschubs 17 ist als spitzwinkliges Dreieck ausgebildet,
an dessen Ecke mit dem stumpferen Winkel eine Auslösetaste 17.2 angesetzt
ist. Diese Auslösetaste 17.2 ist aus dem Armstützenträgerkopf
10.1 so herausgeführt, dass der im Stuhl Sitzende diese Auslösetaste
17.2 ohne weiteres greifen und betätigen kann. Nahe der anderen, dem
spitzen Winkel zugeordneten Ecke des dreieckigen Rasteinschubs 17 ist
eine Rastnase 18 vorgesehen. Diese Rastnase greift in zwischen Stegen
gebildeten Rastausnehmungen 16 ein und sperrt so eine Bewegbarkeit,
auch wenn eine Kraft auf die Armauflage 20 ausgeübt wird. Schließlich
ist an der diesem spitzen Winkel zugeordneten Ecke eine etwa U- oder
V-förmige Rückstellfeder 19 angeformt, deren freies Ende gegen die
geschlossene Rückseite der den Rasteinschub 17 aufnehmenden Schlitz
des Armstützenhalters abgestützt ist.In order to be able to fix the height adjustment, locking means are provided,
that can be triggered to move. These consist of one
into a corresponding slot in the
Zum Bewegen wird die Auslösetaste 17.2 durchgedrückt. Dabei verlagert
sich der Rasteinschub 17 in seine ausgelöste Position 17' - wie in
der Figur 1 durch die Überlagerung angedeutet. Bei dieser Bewegung
wird die Rastnase 18 in die ausgelöste Position 18' bewegt, und
sperrt dabei nicht mehr die Bewegbarkeit der Führungshülse 11 auf dem
Armstützenhalter 15. Bei diesem Durchdrücken der Auslösetaste 17.2
wird mit der Bewegung des Rasteinschubs 17 die Rückstellfeder 19 in
die ausgelöste Position 19' überführt und dabei gespannt. Diese so
gespannte Rückstellfeder 19 sorgt dann beim Erreichen einer neuen Höhenposition,
dass die Rastnase 18 wieder in eine der Rastausnehmungen
16 einfällt und so die gewünschte Höhen-Einstellung fixiert. Um eine
Abziehen des Armstützenträgers 10 mit der Armauflage 20 zu verhindern,
ist im Kopfbereich des Armstützenhalter 15 ein Sperrstift 13
angeordnet. Damit wird - wie in Figur 3 dargestellt - die Bewegbarkeit
von Armstützenträgers 10 mit Armauflage 20 begrenzt.To move the trigger button 17.2 is pressed. In doing so relocated
the latch insert 17 in its triggered position 17 '- as in
of the figure 1 indicated by the overlay. With this movement
