Description

The present invention relates to a device for Covering areas in the area of a lift, a cladding for a wall of a cabin of a lift, one Wall for an elevator car and an elevator car.

Walls of elevator cabins or cars are in elevators For people and / or loads usually made of sheet metal. The insides of the cars of elevators for persons or Loads are therefore very often disguises, i. Side and rear walls of the cabs are by area Covered panels, as well as the cabin ceilings and the floor-facing surfaces of doors and door frames.

In this case, e.g. in passenger lifts in buildings, that the appearance of such panels on the architecture of the building is adapted. What this look are mostly different customer specific To meet requirements. Accordingly different The panels have to be designed. In addition, must the possibility exist walls for elevator cabins and the Equip entrance areas with each adapted cladding.

There are basically two ways of disguise from e.g. Car sheet metal walls. For one thing, directly a cladding is adhered to the sheet metal wall, e.g. thin stainless steel sheet or a plastic plate or film and on the other hand you can on the to be disguised Side of the sheet metal walls in addition cladding panels with the Arrange and secure desired surface. It has the second type of connection has the advantage that by the additional Plates also a noise and / or temperature insulation can be done.

So far have been for these additional patch panels the cars heavy, consuming to be hitched car panels used. These car panels are, for example, as Chipboard with a counter-plate and cladding sheets made of stainless steel. The car panels will be by means of panel holders on wall lamellae of raw cabins hung by elevators. This has, among other things, that by such a fairing a clear width of the Elevator car about 40 mm and a clear depth of the elevator car is reduced by about 20 mm.

The object of the invention is an equipment of walls for elevator cars with fairings, so the possibility a covering of such walls, to improve. With the Invention should u.a. an assembly of panels of such Walls are both simplified and cheaper be. With the invention, walls for elevator cabins be more advantageous overall equip, so that for example, also technical advantages for an operation of an elevator installation, in which the elevator car drives, surrendered.

This task comes with a feature with the features of claim 1, a panel with the features of claim 18, a wall with the features of Patent claim 19 and an elevator car with the features of claim 20 solved.

The inventive device for dressing surfaces in the area of elevators has at least one fairing and at least one of two interacting, planar ones Adhesive components formed reversible fastening device on. In each case, a first adhesive component the at least one reversible fastening device the cladding and in each case a second adhesive component of at least one reversible fastening device on the arranged to be covered area. To attach the panel to the surface to be covered are the two Releasably bond adhesive components together. With the Device according to the invention is an easy to carry out Assembly for a flexible equipment of surfaces in and before elevator cabins with cladding feasible. Prefers is the invention for the inner lining of elevator cabins to use.

In a preferred embodiment of the invention is provided that at least one, in particular both, surface adhesive components the at least one reversible fastening device as a flexible or flexible pressure sealing strip is formed or are. The reversible fastening device is therefore as a so-called Velcro closure or Surface adhesive closure with tentacle adhesive or with e.g. Hemispherical head formed. Such reversible fastening devices have the advantage that through them, so by means of the two interacting adhesive components between the panel and the wall, a secure connection quick and easy to prepare as well as uncomplicated Non-destructive manner is releasable again.

The one adhesive component is fixed to the back the cladding panel connected, e.g. glued, screwed, riveted or welded, and the other with the one to be clad Area. By inventively resulting simple assembly and the fact that a raw cabin of the Elevator initially without further consideration of an embodiment can be made of the panel is It is possible to design the cladding of the wall and thus the elevator car also after installation of the elevator car to determine or change.

Especially for the field of modernization offers the inventive Facility the possibility of a fast and uncomplicated optical change of the elevator car. On individual customer wishes concerning the equipment can be independent of a technical embodiment of the Raw cabin or an existing, to be modernized Elevator cab flexible, easy and efficient become. In the latter case, it is only necessary to the existing wall, the second planar adhesive components to arrange the reversible fastening device.

With the device according to the invention is a faster Replacement of cladding for walls of elevator cabins possible without taking the elevator out of service must become. This is useful, for example, even if the Cladding damaged due to signs of wear, so it should be broken or scratched.

The two adhesive components of the at least one reversible Fastening device can on the one hand different Have structures. So can one of the two adhesive components a plurality of surface arranged, preferably eyelet or loop-like engagement means for the reversible, easily detachable hook or tentacle hooking device which are attached to the second adhesive component in one of the plurality of engagement means largely corresponding Number are arranged flat.

In a mounting for attaching the panel to the Wall hook or grip the hooking means in the engaging means one. Is intended to replace the panel, so can the connection between the panel and the wall with the application of a sufficiently large force be solved nondestructively.

Likewise, there is this flexible pressure closure with on both Pages of essentially similar individual structures, such as. with hemispherical heads on a short stem, e.g. Dual lock. Advantageously, the flexible pressure closure self-adhesive, so that on the one Side of each adhesive component the hemisphere heads and on the On the other side of each adhesive component an adhesive is arranged is with which the component on the trim panel or is glued to the surface to be covered.

Furthermore, the first adhesive component is at least a reversible fastening device on the panel and the second adhesive component of the at least one reversible Fastening device on the wall of the elevator car glued. Are to attach the panel the wall provided several reversible fastening devices, so these are preferably evenly spaced under symmetric, regular alignment between the wall and the paneling arranged. The first and the second adhesive component each of a reversible fastening device are thus congruent or mirror image both on the cladding and on the wall attached. With appropriate arrangement of the reversible fastening devices is it possible, for example, disguises on the wall of the elevator car both horizontally and also to arrange vertically or attach. With the reversible Fastener is between the panel and provided a secure, externally invisible connection to the wall.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the invention provided that the at least one panel of a Carrier material and at least one adhered thereto Surface material is formed.

The surface material is preferably as a stainless steel sheet educated. For this purpose, e.g. edible metals such as any Stainless steel textured sheets can be used. Of course the surface material may also be made of plastic, textile material, Wood and the like or as a mirror be educated. Accordingly, for this surface material depending on optical, customer-specific requirements any suitable, for example, also flame retardant Material to be selected.

The support material can be particularly advantageous as metallic Lightweight board, in particular as an aluminum lightweight board, be educated. This lightweight board consists of e.g. consisting of two cover sheets and one in between Sheet metal, the periodically repeating deformations and thus wavy or possibly zigzag is trained.

The carrier material thus advantageously has a sandwich or honeycomb-like structure. This structure has to Advantage that this substrate is particularly light, thin-walled and also resistant to bending. Due to the small thickness the device according to the invention is the base of the Elevator car only slightly affected.

Due to the resulting low mass of the substrate and surface material covering, which is approximately 11 kg / m ² , the overall weight of the elevator car is substantially reduced compared to elevator cabins with conventional cowling equipment. In an elevator car with a mass of, for example, 1,000 kg, a significant weight saving can be achieved with the device according to the invention, which makes it possible, for example, to use a smaller counterweight and thus also a smaller drive for the elevator. In addition, the low mass of the panel favors the assembly or disassembly of the panel, since the parts to be handled are considerably lighter than previous panels.

With the device according to the invention is a modular Equipment for interior walls, ie side and / or rear walls possible from elevator cabins. It lends itself here, two adjacent panels so relative to each other, preferably parallel to each other, relative to the wall of the elevator car to arrange that between these panels due to a spacing of these panels a Shadow gap arises. Depending on the optical requirements can in a region of this shadow gap on the wall a stainless steel strip or a, for example, black plastic strip be glued on. With the device according to the invention is It is possible to take into account a width of the shadow gap a division, for example, a panel-like trained Surface material to vary as desired. An advantageous Shadow gap width is about 8 mm, but can also only 3 mm. By a suitable coatable color coating on the wall in the area of the shadow gap in black or silver is also an advantageous optical Design of the shadow gap with additional reduction of the installation effort achievable. The shadow gap Can also be used to attach a handrail or other cabin fixtures directly on the wall too allow to work without the panel in addition to have to.

Optionally, in the elevator car is an insert of a skirting board conceivable on which the panel during assembly is to be set up.

The wall of the elevator car or car of the elevator is usually formed of sheet metal wall slats. Because the Fastening of the cladding eg. Of cladding panels through the flexible pressure lock and this e.g. in relation to double-sided tape a considerably greater intrinsic thickness often, e.g. about 4 mm, can the division the cladding panels regardless of a classification of Wall lamellae are made without any attachment problems gives.

By the measure, for the inventive device reversible fastening devices, so flexible pressure sealing strip or Velcro closures are to be possibly on the wall existing bumps, eg. between two adjacent wall slats in balanced in a simple way. This is why because arranged by the between the wall and the panel reversible fastening devices between the Wall and the panel a certain distance available is.

In addition, with the device according to the invention in comparison to unclad walls of elevator cabins an improved Noise isolation realized.

The lining according to the invention for a wall of an elevator car each has a first planar adhesive component at least one of two interacting, planar Adhesive components formed reversible fastening device on. To attach the panel to the wall is in each case a first planar adhesive component with a each second planar adhesive component of the at least a reversible attachment device attached to the wall is arranged to connect. With this invention Fairing is a simple, flexibly deployable Equipment of the elevator car possible.

On the wall according to the invention for an elevator car is in each case a second area adhesive component of at least one formed from two co-operating laminar adhesive components arranged reversible fastening device. In this case, the respective second planar adhesive component with a respective first planar adhesive component of at least a reversible fastening device, which on a Cladding is arranged to connect. The inventive Wall for the elevator car is in a simple way equipped with one or more panels.

For the elevator car according to the invention with a number of Walls are provided that on at least one of the walls at least one second area adhesive component at least one of two cooperating, flat adhesive components trained reversible fastening device arranged is. Here is a respective first surface adhesive component the reversible fastening device, which at a Cladding is arranged, with each second flat Bonding component to connect. The elevator car according to the invention or Rohkabine for a lift can thus under little effort according to individual requirements with a or more side by side facing panels be equipped or even with several against each other exchangeable cladding panels for e.g. one Car in blue or stainless steel.
