Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein System bestehend aus einem Trägerelement und zumindest zwei im Sanitärbereich einsetzbaren Funktionselementen.The present invention relates to a system consisting of a carrier element and at least two functional elements which can be used in the sanitary sector.

Bei den Funktionselementen kann es sich beispielsweise um Haken, Toilettenpapierhalter, Seifenhalter, Griffe, Ablageelemente oder ähnliche Elemente handeln, welche im Sanitärbereich an einer in der Regel vertikal verlaufenden Wandfläche befestigt werden. Bisher werden solche Funktionselemente häufig einfach direkt mit Dübeln in einer Wand verschraubt. Es sind aber auch in einer Wand verschraubte Trägerelemente bekannt, welche zu einem bestimmten, an das jeweilige Trägerelement angepassten Funktionselement gehören und an denen dann jeweils das dazu passende Funktionselement befestigt werden kann. Ein Nachteil einer solchen Befestigung ist es, dass, falls ein Funktionselement durch ein anderes ersetzt werden soll, regelmäßig auch das in der Wand fest verankerte Trägerelement ausgetauscht werden muss.The functional elements may, for example, be hooks, toilet paper holders, soap holders, handles, storage elements or similar elements which are fastened in the sanitary area to a wall surface which is generally vertical. So far, such functional elements are often simply screwed directly with dowels in a wall. But there are also known in a wall bolted support elements, which belong to a specific, adapted to the respective support member functional element and then where in each case the matching functional element can be attached. A disadvantage of such a fastening is that, if one functional element is to be replaced by another, the supporting element, which is firmly anchored in the wall, also has to be regularly exchanged.

Es ist daher die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung, ein Befestigungssystem für im Sanitärbereich einsetzbare Funktionselemente zu schaffen, welches es ermöglicht, verschiedene Funktionselemente auf möglichst einfache und dennoch stabile Weise so an einer Fläche zu befestigen, dass sie ohne größeren Aufwand gegen andere Funktionselemente ausgetauscht werden können.It is therefore the object of the present invention to provide a fastening system for functional elements that can be used in the sanitary sector, which makes it possible to attach various functional elements in a simple and yet stable manner to a surface so that they can be exchanged for other functional elements without much effort ,

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst und insbesondere dadurch, dass ein System aus einem Trägerelement und zumindest zwei im Sanitärbereich einsetzbaren und jeweils mit dem Trägerelement koppelbaren Funktionselementen vorgesehen ist. Das erfindungsgemäße Trägerelement ist dabei mit jedem der Funktionselemente über eine einheitliche Systemschnittstelle koppelbar, wobei diese Systemschnittstelle trägerelementseitig ein zapfenförmiges Element mit einem aus diesem quer zu dessen Längsachse hervorstehenden, nach außen vorgespannten Rastelement aufweist. Die Funktionselemente weisen ihrerseits jeweils ein zu dem zapfenförmigen Element korrespondierendes Rohrelement mit einer Ausnehmung für das Rastelement auf.This object is achieved by the features of claim 1 and in particular by the fact that a system of a support element and at least two usable in the sanitary area and is provided in each case can be coupled to the support element functional elements. The carrier element according to the invention can be coupled to each of the functional elements via a uniform system interface, wherein this system interface carrier element side has a pin-shaped element with an outwardly biased locking element transversely to its longitudinal axis. The functional elements in turn each have a tube element corresponding to the peg-shaped element with a recess for the latching element.

Jedes Funktionselement kann also mit seinem Rohrelement auf das zapfenförmige Element aufgeschoben werden, wobei das aus dem zapfenförmigen Element hervorstehende Rastelement dann in die dafür vorgesehene Ausnehmung in dem Rohrelement einrastet. Auf diese Weise ist das Funktionselement sowohl gegen Verdrehen, als auch gegen ein Abziehen von dem Trägerelement gesichert. Das Rohrelement mit seiner darin vorgesehenen Ausnehmung ist einfach zu realisieren und kann ohne größere Schwierigkeiten an fast allen im Sanitärbereich zu verwendenden Funktionselementen vorgesehen werden. Beim Bau und der Installation eines Badezimmers können nun beispielsweise bereits vom Bauträger an verschiedenen Stellen erfindungsgemäße Trägerelemente vorgesehen werden, auf die später ein Bewohner auf Wunsch und nach seiner Wahl verschiedene Funktionselemente aufsetzen kann.Each functional element can therefore be pushed with its tubular element on the pin-shaped element, wherein the protruding from the pin-shaped element latching element then engages in the recess provided in the tubular element. In this way, the functional element is secured against rotation as well as against removal from the carrier element. The tubular element with its recess provided therein is easy to implement and can be provided without major difficulties to almost all functional elements to be used in the sanitary area. In the construction and installation of a bathroom support elements according to the invention can now be provided, for example, already by the developer at different locations, later on a resident can put on various functional elements on request and after his choice.

Nach einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung weist das zapfenförmige Element zumindest einen parallel zu seiner Längsachse verlaufenden, sich in Richtung des Funktionselements verjüngenden Führungssteg auf. In dem Rohrelement können dann wiederum dazu korrespondierende, sich in Richtung des Funktionselements verjüngende Aussparungen, die sich parallel zu dessen Längsachse erstrecken, vorgesehen sein. Beim Aufstecken eines Funktionselements auf das Trägerelement gleitet der Führungssteg in die korrespondierende Aussparung und durch die verjüngte Form wird das Aufstecken bzw. das Ausrichten des Funktionselements gegenüber dem Trägerelement erleichtert. Bei mit dem Trägerelement gekoppeltem Funktionselement dient ein solcher Führungssteg dann neben dem Rastelement als zusätzliche Verdrehsicherung.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, the pin-shaped element has at least one guide web extending parallel to its longitudinal axis and tapering in the direction of the functional element. In the tube element, corresponding recesses tapering in the direction of the functional element and extending parallel to the longitudinal axis thereof may then be provided. When attaching a functional element on the support member of the guide bar slides into the corresponding recess and the tapered shape facilitates the attachment or the alignment of the functional element relative to the support element. In the case of a functional element coupled to the carrier element, such a guide bar then serves, in addition to the latching element, as an additional anti-rotation device.

Nach einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung sind zwei derartige sich verjüngende Führungsstege an zwei gegenüberliegenden Seiten des zapfenförmigen Elements vorgesehen, welche dann mit zwei entsprechenden Aussparungen in dem Rohrelement zusammenwirken. Durch die zwei sich gegenüberliegenden Führungsstege wird eine optimale Verdrehsicherung erreicht.According to a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention, two such tapered guide ribs are provided on two opposite sides of the peg-shaped element which then cooperate with two corresponding recesses in the tubular element. The two opposite guide webs an optimal rotation is achieved.

Das Trägerelement kann beispielsweise eine kreisförmige Grundfläche besitzen, in deren Mitte das zapfenförmige Element sitzt. Das zapfenförmige Element selbst kann beispielsweise zylindrisch sein, aber auch einen beliebigen anderen Querschnitt besitzen. Eine kreisförmige Grundfläche für das Trägerelement ist sowohl aus optischen als auch aus fabrikationstechnischen Gründen zu bevorzugen, es sind selbstverständlich jedoch auch andere Ausführungsformen denkbar.The support member may, for example, have a circular base, in the middle of which the peg-shaped element sits. The peg-shaped element itself may for example be cylindrical, but also have any other cross-section. A circular base for the support element is preferable for both optical and manufacturing reasons, but of course other embodiments are conceivable.

Nach einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ist ein an einer Wand befestigbares Basiselement vorgesehen, an dem das Trägerelement befestigt werden kann oder befestigt ist. Ein solches Basiselement kann beispielsweise ein Schild oder eine Abdeckplatte sein, welches eine Blende aufweist und an der Wand festgeschraubt ist. Von einem solchen platten- oder schildartigen Basiselement können beispielsweise an der Wand vorgesehene Befestigungspunkte für einen Stütz-Klappgriff verdeckt werden, wenn dieser Griff nicht zum Einsatz gelangen soll, oder es können von vorherigen Einbauten zurückgebliebene Montagelöcher verdeckt werden. Neben solchen nicht genutzten Befestigungspunkten, können auch genutzte Befestigungspunkte von einer solchen Blende verdeckt werden: So kann zum Beispiel eine schildartige Wandplatte vorgesehen werden, welche an einem Ende eine Aussparung für ein Trägerelement aufweist, und an deren anderem Ende ein Befestigungspunkt zum Verschrauben eines Stützklappgriffes oder eines Handtuchhalters vorgesehen ist. Über Stützklappgriffe oder Handtuchhalter werden größere Kräfte in das Basiselement eingeleitet als über die erfindungsgemäßen Funktionselemente, so dass die erfindungsgemäße Systemschnittstelle selbst nicht unbedingt dazu geeignet ist, als Befestigung für Stützklappgriffe oder Handtuchhalter zu dienen.
Natürlich sind auch Basiselemente denkbar, an denen gleich mehrere erfindungsgemäße Trägerelemente befestigt werden können.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, a base element which can be fastened to a wall is provided, on which the carrier element can be fastened or fastened. Such a base element may be, for example, a shield or a cover plate, which has a diaphragm and is screwed to the wall. From such a plate-like or shield-like base element, for example provided on the wall attachment points for a support folding handle can be hidden if this handle should not be used, or it can be hidden from previous fixtures mounting holes. In addition to such unused attachment points, used attachment points can be covered by such a panel: For example, a shield-like wall plate can be provided which has a recess for a support member at one end, and at the other end an attachment point for screwing a support folding handle or a towel holder is provided. By means of support folding handles or towel holders, greater forces are introduced into the base element than via the functional elements according to the invention, so that the system interface according to the invention itself is not necessarily suitable for attachment as support folding handles or towel holders.
Of course, basic elements are conceivable in which a plurality of support elements according to the invention can be attached at the same time.

Zur Befestigung des Trägerelements kann das Basiselement eine Aussparung aufweisen, in die das Trägerelement einsetzbar ist. Falls das Trägerelement eine kreisförmige Grundfläche besitzt, kann beispielsweise an dem Basiselement dementsprechend eine kreisförmige Aussparung vorgesehen sein. Das Trägerelement kann in der Aussparung sitzend von hinten mit dem Basiselement verschraubt werden und aufgrund der Passung in der Aussparung nicht mehr verrutschen. Eine solche Konstruktion erlaubt eine besonders unauffällige und stabile Befestigung des Trägerelements an dem Basiselement.For attachment of the carrier element, the base element may have a recess into which the carrier element can be inserted. If the carrier element has a circular base area, a circular recess can accordingly be provided, for example, on the base element. The carrier element can be seated in the recess from behind be bolted to the base member and no longer slip due to the fit in the recess. Such a construction allows a particularly inconspicuous and stable attachment of the support member to the base member.

Vorzugsweise liegt die in Richtung des Funktionselements zeigende Frontfläche des zapfenförmigen Elements in einer Ebene mit der in Richtung des Funktionselements zeigenden Frontfläche des Basiselements. Das Trägerelement ist also in der Aussparung des Basiselements so versenkt, dass es aus diesem nicht hervorsteht, was den optischen Eindruck sowohl bei montiertem als auch bei fehlendem Funktionselement verbessert. Zudem erhält man auf diese Weise, auch wenn kein Funktionselement an dem Trägerelement befestigt ist, eine im Wesentlichen ebene Oberfläche, so dass Verletzungen durch überstehende Teile des Trägerelements vermieden werden.The front surface of the peg-shaped element pointing in the direction of the functional element preferably lies in a plane with the front surface of the base element pointing in the direction of the functional element. The carrier element is thus sunk in the recess of the base member so that it does not protrude from this, which improves the visual impression both when mounted and in the absence of functional element. In addition, one obtains in this way, even if no functional element is attached to the carrier element, a substantially planar surface, so that injuries are avoided by protruding parts of the support member.

Wenn das Trägerelement wie oben beschrieben in eine Aussparung in einem Basiselement eingesetzt wird, kann es an seiner Rückseite eine Verzahnung aufweisen, die komplementär zu einer entsprechenden Verzahnung in der Aussparung in dem Basiselement ausgebildet ist. Damit wird das Trägerelement zusätzlich gegen ein Verdrehen gegenüber dem Basiselement gesichert.If the carrier element is inserted into a recess in a base element as described above, it can have on its rear side a toothing which is complementary to a corresponding toothing in the recess in the base element. Thus, the support member is additionally secured against rotation relative to the base member.

Die Vorspannung des Rastelements nach außen kann man beispielsweise mit Hilfe einer in dem zapfenförmigen Element abgestützten Feder erhalten. Das Rastelement lässt sich dann leicht gegen seine Vorspannung in Richtung der Achse des zapfenförmigen Elements drücken, so dass ein Funktionselement auf das zapfenförmige Element aufgeschoben werden kann, um dann in die dafür vorgesehene Ausnehmung in dem Rohrelement einzurasten.The bias of the locking element to the outside can be obtained for example by means of a spring supported in the peg-shaped element. The locking element can then be easily pressed against its bias in the direction of the axis of the peg-shaped element, so that a functional element are pushed onto the peg-shaped element can, in order then to engage in the recess provided in the tubular element.

In dem Funktionselement kann eine von außen zugängliche Öffnung vorgesehen sein, durch welche das Rastelement zum Lösen der Kopplung des Funktionselements mit dem Trägerelement bei mit dem Trägerelement gekoppeltem Funktionselement mittels eines Werkzeugs gegen seine Vorspannung radial nach innen gedrückt werden kann. So kann zum Beispiel mit Hilfe eines einfachen Stifts oder Schraubendrehers die Verrastung des Trägerelements mit dem Funktionselement gelöst werden, so dass das Funktionselement abgenommen und auf Wunsch durch ein anderes ersetzt werden kann.In the functional element, an externally accessible opening can be provided, by means of which the latching element for releasing the coupling of the functional element with the carrier element can be pressed radially inwardly against the biasing of the functional element coupled to the carrier element by means of a tool. Thus, for example with the aid of a simple pin or screwdriver, the latching of the carrier element with the functional element can be released, so that the functional element can be removed and replaced by another if desired.

Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand bevorzugter Ausführungsbeispiele und unter Bezugnahme auf die beigefügten Zeichnungen näher beschrieben.In the following the invention with reference to preferred embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in more detail.

Wie in Fig. 2 zu erkennen ist, ist das Rastelement 14 mittels einer Kunststoffbuchse im zapfenförmigen Element 12 gehalten bzw. fixiert und mit einer Feder 16 im Innenbereich des zapfenförmigen Elements 12 an einer Federzentrierung 15 abgestützt, wobei die Feder 16 in einer Bohrung 17 des Rastelements 14 sitzt und sich von dieser Bohrung 17 bis etwa in die Mitte des zapfenförmigen Elements 12 erstreckt. Bei komprimierter Feder wird das Rastelement 14 in dem zapfenförmigen Element 12 versenkt, bis es mit der das Ende der Bohrung 17 begrenzenden Ringfläche an eine dafür vorgesehene Anschlagfläche 13 stößt. In der bis zur Anschlagfläche 13 versenkten Position steht es gerade nicht mehr aus dem zapfenförmigen Element 12 hervor, während es bei entspannter Feder 16 aus dem zapfenförmigen Element 12 herausragt und somit in eine korrespondierende Ausnehmung in einem Rohrelement eines Funktionselements einrasten kann.1 and 2 below lying side of the pin-shaped element 12 is a protruding from this, designed as a cylindrical pin detent element 14 can be seen. As can be seen in Fig. 2, the locking element 14 is held or fixed by means of a plastic bush in the peg-shaped element 12 and supported by a spring 16 in the inner region of the peg-shaped element 12 at a spring centering 15, wherein the spring 16 in a bore 17 of Latching element 14 is seated and extends from this bore 17 to approximately in the center of the peg-shaped element 12. When compressed spring, the locking element 14th sunk in the pin-shaped element 12 until it abuts with the end of the bore 17 delimiting annular surface on a designated stop surface 13. In the retracted to the stop surface 13 position it is no longer straight out of the pin-shaped element 12, while it protrudes with a relaxed spring 16 from the peg-shaped element 12 and thus can engage in a corresponding recess in a tubular element of a functional element.

In Fig. 1 sind des Weiteren zwei an gegenüberliegenden Seiten des zapfenförmigen Elements 12 senkrecht zur Bildebene verlaufende Führungsstege 18 dargestellt. Diese Führungsstege 18 verjüngen sich nach vorne in Richtung eines aufzusteckenden Funktionselements, so dass das Aufstecken des Funktionselements erleichtert wird, welches in seinem Rohrelement zu den Führungsstegen 18 korrespondierende Aussparungen aufweist. Bei mit dem Trägerelement 10 gekoppeltem Funktionselement bilden die Führungsstege 18 eine zusätzliche Verdrehsicherung.In addition, two guide webs 18 extending on opposite sides of the peg-shaped element 12 perpendicular to the image plane are shown in FIG. These guide webs 18 taper forward in the direction of a functional element aufzusteckenden, so that the attachment of the functional element is facilitated, which has in its tubular element to the guide webs 18 corresponding recesses. When coupled with the support member 10 functional element, the guide webs 18 form an additional anti-rotation.

In Fig. 2 sind zudem noch zwei von vier Bohrungen 22 sichtbar, welche kreisförmig in der Rückseite des Trägerelements 10 vorgesehen sind. Die Bohrungen 22 dienen zum Verschrauben des Trägerelements 10 direkt an einer Wand oder an einem Basiselement, wie später noch erläutert werden wird.In Fig. 2 also two of four holes 22 are still visible, which are provided in a circle in the back of the support member 10. The holes 22 are used for screwing the support member 10 directly to a wall or to a base member, as will be explained later.

Die Fig. 3A bis 3C zeigen verschiedene Ansichten eines anderen Ausführungsbeispiels eines erfindungsgemäßen Trägerelements 10. In der Fig. 3A ist das Trägerelement 10 perspektivisch dargestellt und man erkennt eine kreisförmige Grundfläche 20, auf der ein zylindrischer Korpus sitzt, in dessen Mitte sich wiederum das zapfenförmige Element 12 befindet.3A to 3C show different views of another embodiment of a support element 10 according to the invention in Fig. 3A, the support member 10 is shown in perspective and one recognizes a circular base 20, on which a cylindrical body sits, in the center, in turn, the peg-shaped Element 12 is located.

Das zapfenförmige Element 12 besitzt auch hier einen im Wesentlichen quadratischen Querschnitt mit leicht gewölbten Außenseiten, wobei an den Außenseiten zwei sich in Richtung eines Funktionselements verjüngende Führungsstege 18 liegen, von denen in den Figuren jedoch nur einer zu sehen ist. In der Mitte des zapfenförmigen Elements 12 ist an seiner Oberfläche eine viereckige Öffnung 24 angebracht. An der dem Führungssteg 18 benachbarten Außenseite des zapfenförmigen Elements 12 ist in Fig. 3C das Rastelement 14 erkennbar, welches aus dem zapfenförmigen Element 12 seitlich (bei montiertem Trägerelement 10 nach unten) hervorsteht und eine zylindrische Form mit einer abgerundeten Stirnfläche besitzt.The peg-shaped element 12 also here has a substantially square cross-section with slightly curved outer sides, wherein on the outer sides of two in the direction of a functional element tapered guide webs 18 are, of which in the figures, however, only one can be seen. In the center of the peg-shaped element 12 has a quadrangular opening 24 is attached to its surface. On the outer side of the peg-shaped element 12 adjacent to the guide web 18, the latching element 14 can be seen which projects laterally from the peg-shaped element 12 (downwards when the carrier element 10 is mounted) and has a cylindrical shape with a rounded end face.

Die Unterseite des Trägerelements 10 ist mit einer sternförmigen Verzahnung 26 versehen, die in Fig. 3B noch einmal in Draufsicht genauer dargestellt ist. Diese Verzahnung 26 kann, wie in Fig. 5 dargestellt ist, mit einer entsprechenden Verzahnung 27 in einer Aussparung 28 eines Basiselements 30, deren Form der Form der Grundfläche 20 des Trägerelements 10 entspricht, zusammenwirken, wenn das Trägerelement 10 in eine solche Aussparung 28 eingesetzt wird, und somit eine Verdrehsicherung bilden.The underside of the carrier element 10 is provided with a star-shaped toothing 26, which is shown in Fig. 3B again in plan view in more detail. As shown in FIG. 5, this toothing 26 can cooperate with a corresponding toothing 27 in a recess 28 of a base element 30 whose shape corresponds to the shape of the base surface 20 of the carrier element 10, when the carrier element 10 is inserted in such a recess 28 is, and thus form a rotation.

In Fig. 4 ist das Trägerelement 10 aus den Fig. 3A bis 3C nun in ein kreisförmiges Basiselement 30 eingesetzt oder einstückig mit dem Basiselement 30 ausgebildet. Das Basiselement 30 kann an einer Wand festgeschraubt werden und besitzt eine kreisförmige Grundfläche, in deren Mitte eine ebenfalls kreisförmige Aussparung 28 für das Trägerelement 10 vorgesehen ist, deren Durchmesser dem Durchmesser der Grundfläche 20 des Trägerelements 10 entspricht. Das Rastelement 14 ist in der Fig. 4 nicht sichtbar, da es an der Unterseite des zapfenförmigen Elements 12 liegt, allerdings ist der Führungssteg 18 auf der linken Seite des zapfenförmigen Elements 12 erkennbar.In FIG. 4, the carrier element 10 from FIGS. 3A to 3C is now inserted into a circular base element 30 or formed integrally with the base element 30. The base member 30 can be screwed to a wall and has a circular base, in the middle of a likewise circular recess 28 is provided for the support member 10, the diameter of the diameter of the base 20th the carrier element 10 corresponds. The latching element 14 is not visible in FIG. 4, since it lies on the underside of the peg-shaped element 12, but the guide web 18 can be seen on the left-hand side of the peg-shaped element 12.

Zusätzlich ist in Fig. 4 ein Funktionselement 40 dargestellt, welches auf das Trägerelement 10 aufgesteckt werden kann. Bei dem Funktionselement 40 handelt es sich um einen Doppelhaken, der ein rohrförmiges Element 42 besitzt, mit welchem er auf das Trägerelement 10 aufgesetzt wird. Der Innenquerschnitt des Rohrelements 42 entspricht dem Außenquerschnitt des zapfenförmigen Elements 12, wobei auch zwei in der Figur nicht sichtbare Aussparungen vorgesehen sind, welche mit den Führungsstegen 18 korrespondieren. Zudem ist eine in der Figur wiederum nicht sichtbare Ausnehmung für das Rastelement 14 an der Unterseite des Rohrelements 42 ausgebildet.In addition, in FIG. 4, a functional element 40 is shown, which can be plugged onto the carrier element 10. The functional element 40 is a double hook, which has a tubular element 42 with which it is placed on the carrier element 10. The inner cross section of the tubular element 42 corresponds to the outer cross section of the peg-shaped element 12, wherein two not visible in the figure recesses are provided, which correspond to the guide webs 18. In addition, a not visible in the figure again recess for the locking element 14 on the underside of the tubular element 42 is formed.

Zum Aufschieben des Funktionselements 40 wird das Rastelement 14 quer zur Richtung der Längsachse des zapfenförmigen Elements gegen seine Vorspannung niedergedrückt und rastet dann in die Ausnehmung in dem Rohrelement 42 ein. Im eingerasteten Zustand ist das Trägerelement 10 mit dem Funktionselement 40 fest gekoppelt, so dass das Funktionselement 40 gegen Verdrehen und Herausziehen gesichert ist. Das Trägerelement 10 ist in diesem gekoppelten Zustand völlig unsichtbar und das Funktionselement 40 sitzt mit seinem Rohrelement 42 formschlüssig in der Aussparung 28 des Basiselements 30.To slide the functional element 40, the locking element 14 is depressed transversely to the direction of the longitudinal axis of the peg-shaped element against its bias and then locks into the recess in the tubular element 42 a. In the locked state, the carrier element 10 is fixedly coupled to the functional element 40, so that the functional element 40 is secured against rotation and withdrawal. The carrier element 10 is completely invisible in this coupled state and the functional element 40 sits with its tubular element 42 in a form-fitting manner in the recess 28 of the base element 30.

Fig. 5 zeigt ebenfalls das Trägerelement 10 aus den Fig. 3A bis C und der Fig. 4, diesmal allerdings mit einem anderen Basiselement 30. Bei dem Basiselement 30 handelt es sich um ein an einer Wand verschraubbares Langschild mit zwei Aussparungen 28 für Trägerelemente 10. Die beiden kreisrunden Aussparungen 28 sind frontseitig an den einander abgewandten Endbereichen des Schildes 30 vorgesehen und besitzen jeweils eine Verzahnung 27, welche mit der Verzahnung 26 an der Rückseite des Trägerelements 10 zusammenwirkt. Hinter dem Schild 30 können beispielsweise nicht genutzte Befestigungspunkte verdeckt werden. Die Schraube 32 dient zum Verschrauben des Trägerelements 10 in der Aussparung 28.FIG. 5 likewise shows the carrier element 10 from FIGS. 3A to C and FIG. 4, but this time with a different base element 30 Base element 30 is a long plate which can be screwed to a wall and has two recesses 28 for carrier elements 10. The two circular recesses 28 are provided on the front side at the end regions of the plate 30 facing away from each other and each have a toothing 27 which engages with the toothing 26 on the plate Rear side of the support member 10 cooperates. Behind the shield 30, for example, unused attachment points can be covered. The screw 32 serves to screw the carrier element 10 in the recess 28.

Statt des in Fig. 4 dargestellten Doppelhakens können beliebige andere im Sanitärbereich einsetzbare Funktionselemente mit dem erfindungsgemäßen Trägerelement 10 kombiniert werden. So sind zum Beispiel Papierhalter, Seifenablagen, Zahnbecherhalter, Griffe und Haken, Kosmetikablagen und ähnliches denkbar, so dass zusammen mit verschiedenen denkbaren Basiselementen eine Vielzahl von Kombinationsmöglichkeiten entsteht.Instead of the double hook illustrated in FIG. 4, any other functional elements that can be used in the sanitary area can be combined with the carrier element 10 according to the invention. Thus, for example, paper holders, soap trays, tooth cup holders, handles and hooks, cosmetic trays and the like are conceivable, so that, together with various conceivable basic elements, a multiplicity of possible combinations arises.
