Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Hängebehälter gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a suspended container according to the preamble of claim 1.

Schriftgutbehälter wie Hängemappen sind an ihrem oberen Rand mit Haken tragenden Halteelementen versehen, die über die senkrecht nach unten hängenden Seitenkanten der Mappe überstehen und in Halteschienen von Aktenschränken und dergleichen einhängbar sind. Die überstehenden Haken werden dann als störend empfunden, wenn die Hängemappe aus dem Aktenschrank entnommen und in einer Aktenmappe oder -tasche transportiert wird. Aus der EP 1 304 231 A2 ist eine Hängemappe der eingangs genannten Art bekannt, bei der die Halteelemente in Taschen am oberen Rand des Hüllenkörpers eingesetzt sind und in den Taschen verschiebbar gehalten werden. Wenn die Halteelemente nicht zum Aufhängen benötigt werden, können sie in die Tasche geschoben werden. In den Taschen werden die Halteelemente von Aufreihbändern festgehalten, die gleichzeitig dazu dienen, lose Blätter in der Mappe aufzunehmen. Die Taschen bilden jedoch keine exakte Führung für die Halteelemente. Außerdem ist die Herstellung der bekannten Hängemappe schwierig, da die Halteelemente bereits bei der Herstellung der Tasche in diese eingesetzt und mit den Aufreihbändern verbunden werden müssen.
US-A-5993099 zeigt auch der Stand der Technik.
Records containers such as hanging folders are provided at its upper edge with hook-holding elements that survive on the hanging vertically down the side edges of the folder and in retaining rails of filing cabinets and the like are suspended. The protruding hooks are then distracting when the hanging file is removed from the file cabinet and transported in a briefcase or bag. From the EP 1 304 231 A2 is a suspension file of the type mentioned above, in which the holding elements are inserted into pockets at the upper edge of the shell body and slidably held in the pockets. If the retaining elements are not needed for hanging, they can be pushed into the pocket. In the pockets, the holding elements are held by straightening straps, which also serve to accommodate loose leaves in the folder. However, the pockets do not form an exact guide for the holding elements. In addition, the production of the known suspension file is difficult because the holding elements must be used in the production of the bag in this and connected to the Aufreihbändern.
US-A-5993099 also shows the state of the art.

Es ist daher Aufgabe der Erfindung, einen Hängebehälter der eingangs genannten Art derart weiterzubilden, dass er einfacher herstellbar ist und die Halteelemente besser befestigt sind.It is therefore an object of the invention to develop a suspended container of the type mentioned in such a way that it is easier to produce and the holding elements are better attached.

Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch einen Hängebehälter mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Dieser kann insbesondere ein Schriftgutbehälter, wie ein Hängehefter, ein Hängeordner, eine Hängemappe oder ein Hängesammler, oder ein Behälter zur Aufnahme von Datenträgern, wie CDs, sein.The object is achieved by a suspended container with the features of claim 1. This can in particular a document container, such as a hanging stapler, a hanging folder, a suspension file or a hanging collector, or a container for receiving data carriers, such as CDs.

Der Erfindung liegt der Gedanke zugrunde, dass die Halteelemente nach der Herstellung des Hüllenkörpers auf diesen aufgesetzt werden können. Das Langloch dient dabei als Führung für die Führungsnocke des Halteelements. Bei einer Verschiebung des Halteelements entlang der Längskante wird die Führungsnocke im Langloch verschoben, bis sie an die als Anschlag dienenden Schmalseiten des Langlochs stößt.The invention is based on the idea that the holding elements after the production of the shell body can be placed on this. The slot serves as a guide for the guide cam of the retaining element. Upon a displacement of the retaining element along the longitudinal edge of the guide cam is displaced in the slot until it abuts the serving as a stop narrow sides of the slot.

Vorzugsweise weisen die Halteelemente Haken auf und sind von einer ersten Position, in der die Haken über quer zur Längskante verlaufende Seitenkanten überstehen, in eine zweite Position verschiebbar, in der die Haken bis zu den Seitenkanten zurückgezogen sind. Die Haken ermöglichen ein sicheres Einhängen des Hängebehälters in Halteschienen, wie beispielsweise in Aktenschränken. Zum Transport des Hängebehälters werden die Halteelemente in die zweite Position verschoben, so dass die Haken nicht im Weg sind.Preferably, the retaining elements have hooks and are displaceable from a first position, in which the hooks project across lateral edges running transversely to the longitudinal edge, into a second position in which the hooks are retracted up to the side edges. The hooks allow a secure hanging the hanging container in retaining rails, such as in filing cabinets. To transport the hanging container, the holding elements are moved to the second position, so that the hooks are not in the way.

Eine vorteilhafte Weiterbildung der Erfindung sieht vor, dass der Hüllenkörper an seinem oberen Rand einen entlang seiner Längskante angeordneten Verstärkungsstreifen aufweist, durch den sich die Langlöcher erstrecken. Dies ist vor allem dann vorteilhaft, wenn der Hüllenkörper aus einem Material mit geringer Reißfestigkeit besteht, wie beispielsweise Karton. Der Verstärkungsstreifen verstärkt den oberen Rand und bildet die eigentliche Führung für die Führungsnocken der Halteelemente. Er ist zweckmäßig ein Metallstreifen, kann jedoch auch aus Karton oder Kunststoff bestehen. Vorzugsweise ist der Hüllenkörper zumindest teilweise aus einem faltbaren Material gefertigt und entlang der Längskante unter Bildung einer Einstecktasche für den Verstärkungsstreifen gefaltet. Der Verstärkungsstreifen ist dann sicher in der Einstecktasche gehalten.An advantageous development of the invention provides that the sheath body has at its upper edge along its longitudinal edge arranged reinforcing strip through which extend the slots. This is particularly advantageous when the sheath body is made of a material with low tear resistance, such as cardboard. The reinforcing strip reinforces the upper edge and forms the actual guide for the guide cams of the holding elements. He is expedient a metal strip, but may also consist of cardboard or plastic. Preferably, the sheath body is at least partially made of a foldable material and folded along the longitudinal edge to form a pocket for the reinforcing strip. The reinforcing strip is then securely held in the insertion pocket.

Vorteilhafterweise weisen die Halteelemente jeweils zwei in einer Linie angeordnete Führungsnocken auf, die in zwei in einer Linie angeordnete Langlöcher eingreifen. Dies ermöglicht eine bessere und exaktere Führung der Halteelemente mit weniger Spiel. Zweckmäßig sind entlang der Längskante im Abstand zu dieser mehrere Haltelöcher zum Anbringen von Kennzeichnungsschildern in den Hüllenkörper und gegebenenfalls in den Verstärkungsstreifen eingebracht. An den Haltelöchern können Kennzeichnungsschilder lösbar befestigt werden, die über den oberen Rand hinausstehen und eine einfache Identifizierung des in einem Aktenschrank hängenden Hängebehälters ermöglichen.Advantageously, the holding elements each have two guide cams arranged in a line, which engage in two elongated holes arranged in a line. This allows a better and more accurate guidance of the holding elements with less play. Appropriately, along the longitudinal edge at a distance to this several retaining holes for attaching identification plates in the shell body and optionally introduced in the reinforcing strip. At the holding holes identification labels can be releasably attached, which protrude beyond the upper edge and allow easy identification of hanging in a file cabinet hanging container.

Zweckmäßig haben die Halteelemente einen U-förmigen Querschnitt, und ihre beiden Schenkel sind über die Längskante geschoben. Dadurch umfassen die Halteelemente die Längskante. Vorzugsweise erstrecken sich die Führungsnocken von einem ersten Schenkel in das Innere des Halteelements. Sie sind zweckmäßig in Richtung zum freien Ende des sie tragenden Schenkels abgeflacht. Dies erleichtert ein Aufstecken des Halteelements auf die Hülle. Hierzu sind die Schenkel zweckmäßig elastisch aufbiegbar. Die Führungsnocken weisen bevorzugt an ihrer abgeflachten Seite einen senkrecht zum ersten Schenkel verlaufenden Absatz auf. Dadurch wird erreicht, dass die Führungsnocken in den Langlöchern sicher geführt sind, insbesondere wenn die Breite der Führungsnocken nahezu der Breite der Langlöcher entspricht.Suitably, the holding elements have a U-shaped cross section, and their two legs are pushed over the longitudinal edge. As a result, the holding elements comprise the longitudinal edge. Preferably, the guide cams extend from a first leg into the interior of the holding element. They are expediently flattened towards the free end of the leg carrying them. This facilitates attachment of the retaining element to the shell. For this purpose, the legs are expedient elastically aufgebegbar. The guide cams preferably have on their flattened side a perpendicular to the first leg extending paragraph. This ensures that the guide cams are guided safely in the slots, especially when the width of the guide cam corresponds to almost the width of the slots.

Eine besonders einfache Ausführungsform sieht vor, dass der Hüllenkörper aus einem faltbaren Material gefertigt ist und entlang einer einen unteren Rand bildenden Faltkante so gefaltet ist, dass er einen Vorderdeckel und einen mit diesem durch die Faltkante verbundenen Rückdeckel aufweist. Vorder- und Rückdeckel begrenzen eine nach den Seitenkanten offene Schriftguttasche. Zweckmäßig sind sowohl an einer parallel zur Faltkante verlaufenden Längskante des Vorderdeckels als auch an einer parallel zur Faltkante verlaufenden Längskante des Rückdeckels Halteelemente befestigt. Dadurch wird sowohl der Vorderdeckel als auch der Rückdeckel an der Halteschiene des Aktenschranks eingehängt. Vorzugsweise greifen die Führungsnocken von einer Außenseite des Vorderdeckels bzw. des Rückdeckels in die Langlöcher ein.A particularly simple embodiment provides that the sheath body is made of a foldable material and folded along a folding edge forming a lower edge so that it has a front cover and a back cover connected thereto by the folding edge. The front and back covers define a document pocket open to the side edges. Suitably, holding elements are fastened both on a longitudinal edge of the front cover extending parallel to the fold edge and on a longitudinal edge of the back cover extending parallel to the fold edge. As a result, both the front cover and the rear cover are hung on the retaining rail of the filing cabinet. Preferably, the guide cams engage in the slots from an outside of the front cover or the rear cover.

Die Hülle ist vorteilhafterweise aus Karton oder Polypropylen gefertigt, während das Halteelement vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff gefertigt ist. Hierbei ist besonders die Ausbildung des Halteelements als einstückiges Spritzgussteil, insbesondere aus Polyacetylen, wie Polyoxymethylen oder aus Polyamid, Acrylnitril-Butadien-Styrol oder Polystyrol, vorteilhaft. Die Führungsnocken formende Werkzeuge sind zweckmäßig über Fenster in den Schenkeln zum Entformen entfernbar. Es ist auch möglich, die Halteelemente aus zwei Kunststoffteilen zu fertigen, von denen jedes einen der beiden Schenkel aufweist. Die Teile werden dann durch Schweißen miteinander verbunden.The shell is advantageously made of cardboard or polypropylene, while the retaining element is preferably made of plastic. In this case, the formation of the holding element as a one-piece injection-molded part, in particular of polyacetylene, such as polyoxymethylene or of polyamide, acrylonitrile-butadiene-styrene or polystyrene, is particularly advantageous. The guide cam forming tools are expediently removable through windows in the legs for demolding. It is also possible to manufacture the holding elements of two plastic parts, each of which has one of the two legs. The parts are then joined together by welding.

Ein als Hängemappe für die Aufnahme von Schriftgut ausgebildeter erfindungsgemäßer Hängebehälter 1 gemäß Fig. 1 weist einen Hüllenkörper 2 aus faltbarem Karton auf, der entlang einer Faltkante 4 so gefaltet ist, dass er einen Vorderdeckel 6 und einen mit diesem einstückig durch die Faltkante 4 verbundenen Rückdeckel 8 aufweist. Die Faltkante 4 bildet einen unteren Rand des Hüllenkörpers 2. An den vom unteren Rand senkrecht nach oben verlaufenden Seitenkanten 10 sind Vorder- und Rückdeckel 6, 8 nicht miteinander verbunden, so dass der Hüllenkörper 2 an den Seitenkanten 10 offen ist. An ihren oberen Rändern werden Vorder- und Rückdeckel 6, 8 jeweils durch eine Längskante 12 begrenzt, entlang der der Karton gefaltet ist. Die umgefaltete Partie 14 des Kartons ist mit der Innenseite des Vorderdeckels 6 bzw. des Rückdeckels 8 verklebt, so dass eine Einstecktasche 16 für einen Verstärkungsstreifen 18 aus Metall gebildet wird. Diese ist in Fig. 1 und Fig. 4 zum Teil aufgeschnitten dargestellt, so dass der Verstärkungsstreifen 18 sichtbar ist. Entlang jeder Längskante 12 verlaufen im Abstand zu dieser vier paarweise angeordnete Langlöcher 20, die sich durch den Karton und den Verstärkungsstreifen 18 erstrecken. Zwischen den beiden Langlochpaaren sind Haltelöcher 22 durch den Karton und den Verstärkungsstreifen 18 durchgestanzt, an denen Kennzeichnungsschilder befestigbar sind.A suspension container 1 according to the invention designed as a suspension folder for receiving documents Fig. 1 has a shell body 2 made of foldable cardboard, which is folded along a folded edge 4, that it has a front cover 6 and an integrally connected thereto by the folding edge 4 back cover 8. The folding edge 4 forms a lower edge of the casing body 2. At the side edges 10 extending vertically upwards from the lower edge, the front and rear covers 6, 8 are not connected to each other, so that the casing body 2 is open at the side edges 10. At their upper edges, the front and rear covers 6, 8 are each bounded by a longitudinal edge 12 along which the cardboard is folded. The folded-over portion 14 of the carton is glued to the inside of the front cover 6 and the back cover 8, respectively, so that an insertion pocket 16 is formed for a reinforcing strip 18 made of metal. This is in Fig. 1 and Fig. 4 shown partially cut away, so that the reinforcing strip 18 is visible. Along each longitudinal edge 12 extend at a distance from this four paired slots 20 which extend through the carton and the reinforcing strip 18. Between the two pairs of slots holes 22 are punched through the cardboard and the reinforcing strip 18 to which identification plates are fastened.

Am oberen Rand des Hüllenkörpers 2 sind an jeder Längskante 12 zwei Halteelemente 24, 25 befestigt. Die Halteelemente 24, 25 sind aus Kunststoff als Spritzgussteile gefertigt und weisen einen U-förmigen Querschnitt auf. An einem ersten Schenkel 28 jedes Halteelements 24, 25 sind zwei langgestreckte Führungsnocken 30 angeformt, die sich in das Innere des Halteelements 24, 25 erstrecken und in Längsrichtung hintereinander in einer Linie angeordnet sind. Die Führungsnocken 30 greifen in die Langlöcher 20 des Hüllenkörpers 2 ein. Die Länge der Langlöcher 20 ist dabei größer als die Länge der Führungsnocken 30, so dass die Halteelemente 24, 25 entlang der Längskante 12, die von ihren Schenkeln 28, 29 umgriffen wird, verschiebbar sind. Jedes Halteelement 24, 25 weist einen nach unten gerichteten Haken 32 auf, der dazu bestimmt ist, in eine Führungsschiene in einem Aktenschrank eingehängt zu werden. Durch die Verschiebbarkeit der Halteelemente 24, 25 sind die Haken 32 zwischen einer ersten Position, in der sie über die Seitenkanten 10 überstehen (Figuren 1, 3 und 4), und einer zweiten Position, in der sie bis zu den Seitenkanten 10 zurückgezogen sind, verschiebbar. Die Schmalseiten der Langlöcher 20 bilden jeweils Anschläge, bis zu denen die Führungsnocken 30 verschiebbar sind.At the upper edge of the casing body 2, two holding elements 24, 25 are attached to each longitudinal edge 12. The holding elements 24, 25 are made of plastic as injection molded parts and have a U-shaped cross-section. On a first leg 28 of each support member 24, 25, two elongated guide cam 30 are formed, which extend into the interior of the support member 24, 25 and are arranged one behind the other in a line in the longitudinal direction. The guide cams 30 engage in the elongated holes 20 of the casing body 2. The length of the elongated holes 20 is greater than the length of the guide cam 30, so that the holding elements 24, 25 along the longitudinal edge 12, which is encompassed by their legs 28, 29, are displaceable. Each retaining element 24, 25 has a downwardly directed hook 32 which is intended to be hung in a guide rail in a file cabinet. Due to the displaceability of the holding elements 24, 25, the hooks 32 are between a first position in which they project beyond the side edges 10 (FIG. FIGS. 1 . 3 and 4 ), and a second Position in which they are retracted to the side edges 10, displaced. The narrow sides of the elongated holes 20 each form stops, up to which the guide cam 30 are displaceable.

Die Schenkel 28, 29 der Halteelemente 24, 25 sind, um sie besser auf den oberen Rand aufsetzen zu können, elastisch aufbiegbar. Die Führungsnocken 30 sind in Richtung zum freien Ende des sie tragenden ersten Schenkels 28 abgeflacht und weisen an ihrer abgeflachten Seite einen senkrecht zum ersten Schenkel 28 verlaufenden Absatz 34 auf. An der gegenüberliegenden Breitseite 36 verlaufen die Führungsnocken 30 ebenfalls senkrecht zum ersten Schenkel 28. Die Breite der Führungsnocken 30 entspricht im Wesentlichen der Breite der Langlöcher 20, so dass eine exakte Führung gegeben ist. Die Führungsnocken 30 greifen von der Außenseite des Vorder-und des Rückdeckels 6, 8 in die Langlöcher 20 ein. Es werden daher zwei Arten von Halteelementen benötigt, eines 24 mit den Führungsnocken 30 am rechten Schenkel, eines 25 mit den Führungsnocken 30 am linken Schenkel (Fig. 3). Dies ergibt ein einheitliches Design auf jeder Seite. Beide Schenkel 28, 29 weisen Fenster 38, 39 auf, über die die Führungsnocken 30 formende Werkzeuge zum Entformen nach dem Spritzgießen entfernbar sind. Die Fenster 38 im ersten Schenkel 28 erstrecken sich von oberhalb der Führungsnocken 30 bis zu einem die Schenkel 28, 29 verbindenden Steg 40. Die Fenster 39 im gegenüberliegenden Schenkel 29 erstrecken sich von unterhalb der Führungsnocken 30 bis oberhalb der Führungsnocken 30, so dass das durch sie eingreifende Formwerkzeug die Führungsnocken 30 vollständig umgreift.The legs 28, 29 of the holding elements 24, 25 are, in order better to be able to put on the upper edge, elastically aufgebiegbar. The guide cams 30 are flattened in the direction of the free end of the first leg 28 carrying them and have on their flattened side a perpendicular to the first leg 28 extending paragraph 34. At the opposite broad side 36, the guide cam 30 is also perpendicular to the first leg 28. The width of the guide cam 30 corresponds substantially to the width of the slots 20, so that an exact guidance is given. The guide cams 30 engage from the outside of the front and the back cover 6, 8 in the slots 20 a. Therefore, two types of holding elements are needed, one with the guide cam 30 on the right leg, one with the guide cam 30 on the left leg (FIG. Fig. 3 ). This results in a consistent design on each page. Both legs 28, 29 have windows 38, 39, over which the guide cam 30 forming tools for demolding after injection molding can be removed. The windows 38 in the first leg 28 extend from above the guide cam 30 to a leg connecting the legs 28, 29 40. The windows 39 in the opposite leg 29 extend from below the guide cam 30 to above the guide cam 30, so that through they engaging mold the guide cam 30 completely engages.

Zur Herstellung der Hängemappe 1 wird ein Bogen aus Karton entlang der Faltkante 4 gefaltet, so dass Vorder- und Rückdeckel 6, 8 deckungsgleich aufeinander liegen. Anschließend werden Vorder- und Rückdeckel 6, 8 entlang der Längskanten 12 nochmals gefaltet, und in die so entstehende Einstecktasche 16 wird der Verstärkungsstreifen 18 aus Metall eingelegt. Der Verstärkungsstreifen 18 wird in der Einstecktasche 16 fixiert, indem die umgefalteten Partien 14 mit dem Vorder- bzw. Rückdeckel 6, 8 verklebt werden. Anschließend werden die Langlöcher 20 und die Haltelöcher 22 aus dem Karton und dem eingelegten Verstärkungsstreifen 18 ausgestanzt. Es ist zwar auch möglich, die Löcher 20, 22 im Verstärkungsstreifen 18 und im Karton getrennt auszustanzen. In diesem Fall muß jedoch der Verstärkungsstreifen 18 in der Einstecktasche 16 mit hoher Präzision positioniert werden, so dass die Löcher 20, 22 im Karton und die Löcher 20, 22 im Verstärkungsstreifen 18 deckungsgleich sind.To produce the suspension file 1, a sheet of cardboard is folded along the folded edge 4, so that the front and rear covers 6, 8 are congruent to each other. Subsequently, the front and rear covers 6, 8 are folded again along the longitudinal edges 12, and in the resulting insertion pocket 16, the reinforcing strip 18 is inserted from metal. The reinforcing strip 18 is fixed in the insertion pocket 16 by the folded Batches 14 with the front and back cover 6, 8 are glued. Subsequently, the slots 20 and the retaining holes 22 are punched out of the box and the inserted reinforcing strip 18. Although it is also possible to punch out the holes 20, 22 in the reinforcing strip 18 and in the box separately. In this case, however, the reinforcing strip 18 must be positioned in the insertion pocket 16 with high precision, so that the holes 20, 22 in the box and the holes 20, 22 in the reinforcing strip 18 are congruent.

Zusammenfassend ist folgendes festzuhalten: Die Erfindung betrifft einen Hängebehälter mit einem Hüllenkörper 2 zur Aufnahme von flachen Gegenständen, vorzugsweise von Schriftgut, und mit an dessen oberem Rand befestigten, entlang einer den oberen Rand begrenzenden Längskante 12 verschiebbaren Halteelementen 24, 25 zum Aufhängen an Halteschienen. Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass die Halteelemente 24, 25 die Längskante 12 umgreifen und jeweils mindestens eine langgestreckte Führungsnocke 30 aufweisen, die in ein entlang der Längskante 12 im Abstand zu dieser verlaufendes Langloch 20 eingreift, dessen Länge größer ist als die der Führungsnocke 30.In summary, the following should be noted: The invention relates to a suspended container with a shell body 2 for receiving flat objects, preferably of documents, and attached to the upper edge, along a longitudinal edge bounding the longitudinal edge 12 sliding support members 24, 25 for hanging on support rails.
