Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a door handle for, in particular horizontal, mounting on a furniture door, in particular a refrigerated cabinet door.
  • Door handles for horizontal mounting on refrigerated furniture doors, such. B. on refrigerator or freezer doors are known in the art.
  • DE 197 51 310 A1 a one-piece door handle, which is combined with a fastener on the door. The central placement of the fastener on the door a door stop change is to be facilitated.
  • FIG. 3 of this document shows a handle end in the form of a cylindrical plug member from which a flat tongue projects radially.
  • the handle center piece has a complementary to the plug member receptacle, the wall of which is laterally slotted to pass the tongue.
  • the lateral slot affects the load capacity of the handle centerpiece by lateral pull when the door is opened.
  • a permanent grip therefore requires a high wall thickness of the sleeve and leads to high material costs.
  • the publication GB 225 971 A shows a door handle with an aluminum tube, wherein at each end an end piece is disposed at opposite ends of the aluminum tube.
  • the publication DE 34 36 990 A1 shows a kit for handle-like fittings.
  • the publication US 5,144,718 A discloses a door handle for opening and closing a door, wherein the door handle has an elongate, hollow handle element, two connection elements and two elastic, tubular intermediate pieces.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a door handle for, in particular horizontal, mounting on a furniture door, in particular a refrigerated door, which overcomes the disadvantages of the prior art, in particular combines the creative flexibility of a multi-part handle with economical use of material.
  • the door handle according to the invention for, in particular horizontal, mounting on a furniture door, in particular a refrigerated door, comprises an elongated handle center piece, which is made of a hollow extruded profile, and comprises two handle end pieces, which on the handle center piece are fixed by inserting a plug element in a receptacle of the handle center piece, wherein the Griffend mixede the handle center piece extending in its longitudinal direction attached thereto and wherein the receptacle has a continuous over its entire length peripheral wall, wherein one of the Griffend mixede formed angled and provided with a substantially perpendicular to the handle center piece flattening, which serves as a contact surface when mounting the door handle is used on a side surface of the furniture door, wherein the flattening has a through hole
  • the door handle consists of at least three components, for example, design variants of door handles can be made in a simple manner by z. B. different materials used for the different components.
  • the handle center piece for example, made of aluminum, stainless steel or plastic.
  • the grip end pieces can also be made of different materials, wherein plastic, in particular PA6 GK30, is preferred, since damage to the door panels can thereby be avoided in the mounted state.
  • the individual components may have different colors.
  • the handle center piece of a profile material namely an extruded profile to produce.
  • the handle centerpiece is hollow. This brings z. B. a significant material savings despite high stability.
  • the handle centerpiece has a straight course and is not bent. This causes significant advantages in the assembly of the handle center piece with the Griffend Swissen and reduces the price of parts, since the handle center pieces only cut to length and do not have to be bent.
  • one of the receptacles on the handle center piece and a complementary plug element on one of the end pieces are provided.
  • the inner cavity may form such a socket.
  • plug-in direction of the plug element and receptacle is parallel to the longitudinal direction of the handle center piece, then pulling forces exerted by a user when opening the door act transversely to the plug direction and do not cause the grips to slip against each other and cause no loosening.
  • the plug element is surrounded at its base by a circumferential projection.
  • a projection can serve as a stop for receiving the respective other handle when assembling the door handle.
  • the outer contour of the handle center piece merges continuously at one of its longitudinal ends into the outer contour of the adjoining handle end piece.
  • the length of the door handle, on which this can be comfortably grasped by hand extend beyond the length of the handle center piece out.
  • At least one, preferably one, of the handle end pieces has a retaining toggle for the positive connection with the furniture door. This facilitates the mounting of the handle on the door by the retaining knob on one side only with a matching fastener on the door (plugged) must be. Due to the positive connection, the handle can also be easily removed.
  • At least one of the handle end pieces has at least one through-hole, in particular for the introduction of at least one fastening means for fastening to the furniture door.
  • the mentioned fasteners are usually screws.
  • the invention further relates to a kit of a door handle according to the invention with a handle centerpiece and two Griffend constitutionalen.
  • this kit different design and length variants of handles, in particular handles for refrigerators, can be produced in a simple manner.
  • the invention further relates to a method for producing a door handle according to the invention, wherein the two handle end pieces and the handle center piece made separately and then joined together and the length of the handle is determined by the length of the handle center piece, which by cutting to length, z. B. by sawing, is made from a starting material.
  • the starting material usually already has the cross-sectional shape of the handle center piece, so that after cutting to length of the desired handle center piece no major post-treatments are necessary.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of an embodiment of a door handle according to the invention 1.
  • the door handle shown has a handle center piece 2, which shows a straight course.
  • the handle center piece 2 is connected at its end faces in each case with a handle end piece 3, 4 non-positively. This close the Handle center piece 2 and the two Griffend Publishede 3, 4 flush with each other, ie they go into each other without discontinuity of their cross-sectional shape.
  • the handle end piece 3 has a curved course and includes with the handle center piece 2 an obtuse interior angle.
  • the handle center piece 2 facing away from the end of Griffend Cultures 3 has a flat, the shape of a rounded shield having surface 5.
  • This surface 5 is arranged substantially parallel to the handle center piece 2.
  • the surface 5 has a larger area than the cross-sectional area of the other end of the Griffendteils 3.
  • Relatively in the center of the surface 5 is a retaining knob 6 for supporting the door handle 1 on a door.
  • This retaining knob 6 is integrally connected to the Griffendteil 3 and has a base 7 and a crossbar 8, which is integrally connected to the base 7, on.
  • the base 7 has a rectangular base 9 and a cover surface 10 extending parallel thereto.
  • the top surface 10 is rectangular and has the same width, but a shorter length than the base 9.
  • the handle center piece 2 facing narrow edge 11 of the base 9 is connected to the handle center piece 2 facing narrow edge 12 of the top surface
  • the integrally connected to the base 7 crossbar 8 has the shape of a wedge.
  • the crossbar 8 has a flat, the base 7 facing away from the front side (not shown in the drawing) and an arcuate back 15, via which the crossbar 6 is connected to the base 7.
  • the grip end 4 also has a curved course.
  • the handle end 4 has, at its, the handle center piece remote from the end a flattened portion 16 which at least one through hole 17 for the introduction of a fastening means, in particular a screw has.
