Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Kappe für ein Schreib-, Zeichen- oder Malgerät mit einer Kappenhülse und einem Klemmring gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1.The present invention relates to a cap for a writing, drawing or painting device with a cap sleeve and a clamping ring according to the preamble of claim 1.

Viele Schreibgeräte mit abnehmbarer Kappe, insbesondere Füllfederhalter, besitzen eine aufschraubbare Kappe, welche zwar eine sichere Verbindung zwischen dem Gehäuse des Schreibgerätes und der Kappe gewährleistet, jedoch umständlich und daher nicht schnell einsetzbar ist.Many writing instruments with removable cap, especially fountain pen, have a screw cap, which although a secure connection between the housing of the writing instrument and the cap ensures, but cumbersome and therefore can not be used quickly.

Aus der DE-U 1 802 121 ist eine Kappe für ein Schreib-, Zeichen- oder Malgerät mit einer Kappenhülse und einem Klemmring bekannt. Der Klemmring ist dabei am Gehäuse des Schreibgerätes vorgesehen und liefert eine Schnappverbindung. Es besteht jedoch die Gefahr, daß die Schnappverbindung nachgibt und das Gehäuse aus der Kappe herausrutscht oder die Kappe von dem Gehäuse rutscht.From the DE-U 1 802 121 a cap for a writing, drawing or painting device with a cap sleeve and a clamping ring is known. The clamping ring is provided on the housing of the writing instrument and provides a snap connection. However, there is a risk that the snap connection yields and the housing slips out of the cap or the cap slips from the housing.

DE 911 589 C offenbart eine Kappe gemäß dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1. Die Kappe weist ein Innengewinde zum Aufschrauben auf den Haltervorderteil eines Füllhalters auf. Die Herstellung der bekannten Kappe ist jedoch nicht einfach. DE 911 589 C discloses a cap according to the preamble of claim 1. The cap has an internal thread for screwing onto the holder front part of a fountain pen. However, the production of the known cap is not easy.

Der Erfindung liegt somit die Aufgabe zugrunde, die gattungsgemäße Kappe derart weitenzubilden, daß eine sichere Verbindung zwischen dem Gehäuse eines Schreib-, Zeichen- oder Malgerätes und der Kappe bei gleichzeitig einfacher Handhabung und Herstellung gewährleistet ist.The invention is therefore the object of the generic cap educate such that a secure connection between the housing of a writing, drawing or painting device and the cap is ensured at the same time easy to use and manufacture.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß auf der Außenumfangsfläche des Klemmrings wenigstens eine in Umfangsrichtung radial ansteigende Keilfläche und auf der Innenumfangsfläche der Kappenhülse eine entsprechende Anzahl von ebensolchen Keilflächen angeordnet sind, und die Steigungen der nach dem Einsetzen des Klemmrings in die Kappenhülse sich gegenüberliegenden Keilflächen gleich sind.According to the invention this object is achieved in that on the outer peripheral surface of the clamping ring at least one circumferentially radially increasing wedge surface and on the inner peripheral surface of the cap sleeve a corresponding number of just such wedge surfaces are arranged, and the slopes of the after insertion of the clamping ring in the cap sleeve opposite wedge surfaces are the same.

Insbesondere kann dabei vorgesehen sein, daß die Innenumfangsfläche des Klemmrings derart gestaltet ist, daß durch Aufsetzen der Kappe auf das Gehäuse ein Reib- oder Formschluß zwischen dem Klemmring und dem Gehäuse resultiert.In particular, it can be provided that the inner peripheral surface of the clamping ring is designed such that a frictional or positive connection between the clamping ring and the housing results by placing the cap on the housing.

Weiterhin kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Innenumfangsfläche der Kappenhülse sowie die Außenumfanesfläche des Klemmrings derart gestaltet sind, daß durch Aufsetzen der Kappe auf das Gehäuse des Schreib-, Zeichen- oder Malgerätes und eine nachfolgende relative axiale Drehung zwischen der Kappe und dem Gehäuse ein Reibschluß zwischen der Kappenhülse und dem Klemmring resultiert.Furthermore, it can be provided that the inner peripheral surface of the cap sleeve and the Außenumfanesfläche the clamping ring are designed such that a frictional engagement between by placing the cap on the housing of the writing, drawing or painting device and a subsequent relative axial rotation between the cap and the housing the cap sleeve and the clamping ring results.

Schließlich kann vorgesehen sein, daß die Kappe derart gestaltet ist, daß sie dichtend auf das Gehäuse aufsetzbar ist.Finally, it can be provided that the cap is designed such that it can be placed sealingly on the housing.

Der Erfindung liegt die überraschende Erkenntnis zugrunde, daß durch einen Klemmring, der durch Drehen der Kappe seine Funktion entfaltet, die Herstellung einer sicheren Verbindung auf einfache Weise ermöglicht wird. Die Kappe läßt sich in gewohnter Weise aufsetzen und mit einer nur geringen Drehung (< 120 °) fixieren. Durch einen separaten Klemmring ist kein radial orientiertes Einsuchen, wie bei einem Bajonettverschluß, erforderlich.The invention is based on the surprising finding that the production of a secure connection is made possible in a simple manner by a clamping ring which unfolds its function by turning the cap. The cap can be put on in the usual way and fixed with only a slight turn (<120 °). By a separate clamping ring is no radially oriented search, as in a bayonet lock required.

Außerdem entfällt bei der Herstellung der Kappe das Entspindeln, wie es bei einem Gewinde für eine Schraubverbindung erforderlich wäre.In addition, eliminates in the manufacture of the cap, the unwinding, as would be required for a thread for a screw.

Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den Ansprüchen und aus der nachstehenden Beschreibung, in der ein Ausführungsbeispiel anhand der schematischen Zeichnungen im einzelnen erläutert ist. Dabei zeigt:

Die in Figur 1 gezeigte Kappenhülse 10 weist ein offenes Ende 12 und ein geschlossenes Ende (nicht gezeigt) auf. Die Kappenhülse weist ausgehend von dem offenen Ende 12 einen ersten Abschnitt 14 mit einem Innendurchmesser d1, einen zweiten Abschnitt mit drei in Umfangsrichtung radial ansteigenden Keilflächen, von denen hier nur zwei, nämlich 18 und 20 sichtbar sind, einen dritten Abschnitt 23 mit einem Innendurchmesser d2, wobei gilt d2 < d1, einen vierten Abschnitt 24 mit einem Innendurchmesser d3, wobei gilt d3 < d2, und einem fünften Abschnitt 26 mit einem Innendurchmesser d4 auf, wobei gilt d4 < d3. Dadurch ergeben sich nach innen vorspringende Absätze 28 und 30. Der Absatz 30 dient als Anschlagfläche für einen Klemmring (nicht gezeigt).In the FIG. 1 shown cap sleeve 10 has an open end 12 and a closed end (not shown). Starting from the open end 12, the cap sleeve has a first section 14 with an inner diameter d 1 , a second section with three wedge surfaces radially rising in the circumferential direction, of which only two, namely 18 and 20 are visible, a third section 23 with an inner diameter d 2 , where d 2 <d 1 , a fourth section 24 having an inner diameter d 3 , where d 3 <d 2 , and a fifth section 26 having an inner diameter d 4 , where d 4 <d 3 . This results in inwardly projecting paragraphs 28 and 30. The paragraph 30 serves as a stop surface for a clamping ring (not shown).

Wie Figur 2 zeigt, erstrecken sich die Keilflächen 18, 20 und 22 jeweils über 120 °.As FIG. 2 shows, the wedge surfaces 18, 20 and 22 each extend over 120 °.

Das in Figur 3 gezeigte Gehäuse 32 eines Schreibgerätes, z. B. eines Füllfederhalters, weist eine Gehäusespitze 34 mit zwei zylindrischen Abschnitten 36 und 38 mit unterschiedlichen Außendurchmessern auf, die über einen kegelstumpfförmigen Abschnitt 40 und den Absatz 39 miteinander verbunden sind.This in FIG. 3 shown housing 32 of a writing instrument, z. As a fountain pen, has a housing tip 34 with two cylindrical sections 36 and 38 with different outer diameters, which are connected to each other via a frusto-conical portion 40 and the shoulder 39.

Figur 4 zeigt eine perspektivische Ansicht eines Klemmrings 42. Deutlich ist zu erkennen, daß der Klemmring 42 über einen Teilbereich in seiner Längsrichtung auf der Außenumfangsfläche 3 in Umfangsrichtung radial ansteigende Keilflächen 44, 46 und 4& aufweist, die entsprechend den Keilflächen 18, 20 und 22 gestaltet sind. Zwischen den Keilflächen 44, 46 und 48 ist jeweils ein Spalt 50 bzw. 52 bzw. 54 angeordnet. FIG. 4 clearly shows that the clamping ring 42 over a portion in its longitudinal direction on the outer peripheral surface 3 in the circumferential direction radially increasing wedge surfaces 44, 46 and 4 &, which are designed according to the wedge surfaces 18, 20 and 22 , Between the wedge surfaces 44, 46 and 48, a gap 50 or 52 or 54 is arranged in each case.

Der Klemmring 42 läßt sich in drei Abschnitte 56, 58 und 60 unterteilen. In dem Abschnitt 56 sind die Keilflächen 44, 46, 48 angeordnet. In dem Abschnitt 58 sind drei sich in Umfangsrichtung lediglich über einen Teilbereich erstreckende Absätze 62, 64 und 66 (siehe auch Figur 6) vorgesehen. Der dritte Abschnitt 60 weist einen konstanten Außendurchmesser auf, der geringer als die effektiven Außendurchmesser der Abschnitte 56 und 58 ist.The clamping ring 42 can be divided into three sections 56, 58 and 60. In the section 56, the wedge surfaces 44, 46, 48 are arranged. In the section 58, three paragraphs 62, 64 and 66 extending in the circumferential direction over only a partial area (see also FIGS FIG. 6 ) intended. The third portion 60 has a constant outside diameter which is less than the effective outside diameters of the portions 56 and 58.

Figur 5 zeigt eine Ansicht des Klemmrings 42 in Richtung des Pfeils A. Jeder Spalt 50, 52 und 54 erstreckt sich über einen Winkelbereich von 10°. FIG. 5 shows a view of the clamping ring 42 in the direction of arrow A. Each gap 50, 52 and 54 extends over an angular range of 10 °.

Figur 7 zeigt eine Schnittansicht entlang der Linie VII-VII von Figur 6. FIG. 7 shows a sectional view taken along the line VII-VII of FIG. 6 ,

Figur 8 zeigt eine Längsschnittansicht des Gehäuses 32 von Figur 3 mit befestigter Kappe 68. Der Schnitt entspricht dem Schnitt von Figur 7. Die Kappe 68 umfaßt die Kappenhülse 10 und den zu der Kappenhülse separaten Klemmring 42. Der Klemmring 42 befindet sich in Reibschluß mit dem Gehäuse 32. Weiterhin ist zu erkennen, daß das Gehäuse 32 mit seinem Absatz 39 an einem Absatz 70 auf der Innenseite des Klemmrings 42 anliegt. Der Klemmring 42 liegt wiederum mit seinem Abschnitt 60 an dem Absatz 30 (siehe Figur 1) der Kappenhülse 10 an. FIG. 8 shows a longitudinal sectional view of the housing 32 of FIG. 3 with attached cap 68. The cut corresponds to the cut of FIG. 7 , The cap 68 includes the cap sleeve 10 and the separate from the cap sleeve clamping ring 42. The clamping ring 42 is in frictional engagement with the housing 32. Furthermore, it can be seen that the housing 32 with his paragraph 39 on a shoulder 70 on the inside of the clamping ring 42 is present. The clamping ring 42 is in turn with its section 60 on the shoulder 30 (see FIG. 1 ) of the cap sleeve 10.

Figur 9 zeigt eine weitere Längsschnittansicht des Gehäuses 32 von Figur 3 mit befestigter Kappe 68. Während der in Figur 8 gezeigte Schnitt durch den Absatz 64 verläuft, erstreckt sich der Schnitt durch einen der Spalte 50, 52 und 54. FIG. 9 shows a further longitudinal sectional view of the housing 32 of FIG. 3 with attached cap 68. During the in FIG. 8 As shown in section through the paragraph 64, the section extends through one of the gaps 50, 52 and 54th

Figur 10 zeigt eine Schnittansicht entlang der Linie X-X von Figur 8. Deutlich sind die drei Keilflächen 18, 20 und 22 des Klemmrings 42 und die entsprechenden Keilflächen 44, 46 und 48 der Kappenhülse 10 zu erkennen. Durch Drehung des Klemmrings 42 relativ zur Kappenhülse 10 wird demzufolge sein Innendurchmesser reduziert. Dies führt zu einer Klemmung und damit auch zu einem axialen Festsitz der Kappe 68 auf dem Gehäuse 32. Die Drehung des Klemmrings 42 wird dabei durch den Reibschluß zum Gehäuse 32 bewirkt. Die Kappe 68 läßt sich in gewohnter Weise aufsetzen und mit nur einer geringen Drehung (< 120°) fixieren. FIG. 10 shows a sectional view taken along the line XX of FIG. 8 , Clearly, the three wedge surfaces 18, 20 and 22 of the clamping ring 42 and the corresponding wedge surfaces 44, 46 and 48 of the cap sleeve 10 can be seen. By rotation of the clamping ring 42 relative to the cap sleeve 10, consequently, its inner diameter is reduced. This leads to a clamping and thus also to an axial tight fit of the cap 68 on the housing 32. The rotation of the clamping ring 42 is effected by the frictional engagement with the housing 32. The cap 68 can be put on in the usual way and fix with only a slight turn (<120 °).
