Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Griff einer Zange nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a handle of a pair of pliers according to the preamble of claim 1.

Es gibt eine Vielzahl von Griffen für Werkzeuge, bei denen der Griff sowohl im Querschnitt als auch im Längsschnitt an die Größe einer als Standard angenommenen Hand und an die Funktion des Werkzeugs angepaßt ist. Bei der Anpassung an die Ergonomie der Hand wurde dabei bei bekannten Griffen in erster Linie auf die Form Wert gelegt. Darüber hinaus wurden gewisse Oberflächeneigenschaften zur Verbesserung der Griffigkeit optimiert, um einen gewissen Komfort für den Benutzer zu gewährleisten.There are a variety of handles for tools, in which the handle is adapted both in cross-section and in longitudinal section to the size of a standard accepted hand and the function of the tool. When adapting to the ergonomics of the hand, in the case of known handles, emphasis was placed primarily on the shape. In addition, certain surface properties have been optimized to improve the grip, to ensure a certain comfort for the user.

So sind Zwei-Komponenten-Griffe bekannt, die aus zwei Bereichen bestehen, nämlich aus einem inneren Bereich, der aus einem harten Material ist, um die erforderliche Griffestigkeit zu erreichen, und einem zweiten Bereich, der aus einem weicheren Material ist, um einen gewissen Komfort für den Benutzer zu gewährleisten.Thus, two-component handles are known which consist of two regions, namely an inner region which is made of a hard material in order to achieve the required grip strength and a second region which is made of a softer material by a certain extent To ensure comfort for the user.

Aus der gattungsbildenden EP 0 538 632 A1 ist ein Werkzeuggriff bekannt, der eine harte Schale und eine weiche Schale hat, die zusammen einen Werkzeugschaft umgreifen. In der weichen Schale ist ein Einsatz, der aus einem Weichkunststoff besteht.From the generic EP 0 538 632 A1 For example, a tool handle is known that has a hard shell and a soft shell that together grip around a tool shank. In the soft shell is an insert that consists of a soft plastic.

Die EP 1 419 856 A1 zeigt einen Bohrer mit einem Gehäuse, das aus unterschiedlichen Kunststoffen besteht. Unter einer Folie können mit Gel gefüllte Packungen angebracht werden, um den Komfort eines Bedieners zu gewährleisten.The EP 1 419 856 A1 shows a drill with a housing made of different plastics. Under a film, gel-filled packages can be applied to ensure the comfort of an operator.

Aus der WO 03/015588 A2 ist ein Griff einer Pfanne und aus der US 6,158,910 ein Stift bekannt, wobei der Griff der Pfanne und der Stift aus verschiedenen Kunststoffen bestehen.From the WO 03/015588 A2 is a handle of a pan and out of the US 6,158,910 a pin known, wherein the handle of the pan and the pin made of different plastics.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Griff für Werkzeuge zu schaffen, der einen verbesserten Komfort für den Benutzer bietet.The invention has for its object to provide a handle for tools that offers improved comfort for the user.

Zu diesem Zweck sieht die Erfindung einen Griff einer Zange mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 vor. Die einzelnen Bereiche des Griffs weisen so unterschiedlich verformbare Bereiche auf. Dadurch ist es möglich, daß der Griff nachgibt, wenn beispielsweise ein Benutzer an einer bestimmten Stelle stärker zugreift als an einer anderen. Die Anordnung der Bereiche ist dabei so gewählt, daß selbst für eine Hand des Benutzers, die von der Standardform und der Standardgröße abweicht, ein besseres Fassen des Griffs erreicht wird.For this purpose, the invention provides a handle of a pair of pliers having the features of claim 1. The individual areas of the handle have so different deformable areas on. This makes it possible for the grip to yield, for example when a user accesses more at one point than at another. The arrangement of the areas is chosen so that even for a hand of the user, which differs from the standard shape and the standard size, a better grip of the handle is achieved.

Vorzugsweise ist der erste Bereich aus einem Material, das hart ist, und das Material des zweiten Bereichs weich, wobei das Material des zweiten Bereichs eine höhere Härte als das Material des dritten Bereichs aufweist. Der erste, harte Bereich des Griffs gewährleistet die erforderliche Griffestigkeit und dient zur Befestigung des Schaftes des Werkzeugs im Griff. Der zweite und dritte Bereich des Griffs ermöglichen, daß der Griff an die Anatomie der Hand angepaßt ist. So können Quetschstellen vermieden werden, die normalerweise auftreten, wenn der Griff aus einem harten, unverformbaren Material besteht.Preferably, the first region is made of a material that is hard and the material of the second region soft, wherein the material of the second region has a higher hardness than the material of the third region. The first, hard area of the handle ensures the required grip and serves to secure the shank of the tool in the handle. The second and third portions of the handle allow the handle to conform to the anatomy of the hand. This prevents pinching that normally occurs when the handle is made of a hard, non-deformable material.

Der zweite und dritte Bereich ist bevorzugt auf eine bestimmte Tiefe des Griffs begrenzt. Dies ermöglicht, daß eine für die Verbindung mit dem Werkzeug erforderliche Festigkeit in dem ersten, harten Bereich gegeben ist.The second and third areas are preferably limited to a certain depth of the handle. This allows a strength required for connection to the tool to be given in the first, hard area.

Das Material des dritten Bereichs ist bevorzugt ein Gel und als Kissen ausgebildet. Gele sind für die Gestaltung der Oberfläche von Werkzeuggriffen bekannt und weisen Eigenschaften auf, die für diese Anwendung vorteilhaft sind, nämlich eine nicht so schnelle Rückverformung und eine Nachgiebigkeit, die besonders geeignet erscheint.The material of the third region is preferably a gel and designed as a cushion. Gels are known for the design of the surface of tool handles and have properties that are advantageous for this application, namely a not so fast recovery and a compliance that seems particularly suitable.

Weitere Merkmale und Vorteile ergeben sich aus den Unteransprüchen. Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand der bevorzugten Ausführungsform beschrieben, die in den Zeichnungen dargestellt ist. In den Zeichnungen zeigen:

  • Figur 1 eine perspektivische Ansicht eines erfindungsgemäßen Griffs; und
  • Figur 2 einen Längsschnitt durch zwei Griffe gemäß Figur 1.
Further features and advantages emerge from the subclaims. The invention will be described below with reference to the preferred embodiment shown in the drawings. In the drawings show:
  • FIG. 1 a perspective view of a handle according to the invention; and
  • FIG. 2 a longitudinal section through two handles according to FIG. 1 ,

Figur 1 zeigt einen Griff 10 einer Zange, wobei zwei gleich ausgebildete Griffe 10 verwendet werden, wie es in Figur 2 skizziert ist. Der hier gezeigte Griff 10 wird für Zangen verwendet. FIG. 1 shows a handle 10 of a pair of pliers, wherein two identically shaped handles 10 are used, as in FIG. 2 outlined. The handle 10 shown here is used for pliers.

Jeder Griff 10 weist drei Bereiche auf, nämlich einen ersten Bereich 12, einen zweiten Bereich 16 und einen dritten Bereich 18, wobei die Bereiche 12, 16, 18 eine bündige Oberfläche bilden. Dabei sind die Bereiche 12, 16 und 18 aus Kunststoff und weisen eine jeweils unterschiedliche Härte auf.Each handle 10 has three areas, namely a first area 12, a second area 16 and a third area 18, wherein the areas 12, 16, 18 form a flush surface. The areas 12, 16 and 18 are made of plastic and each have a different hardness.

Die drei Bereiche 12, 16, 18 sind hier als durchgehende Bereiche gezeigt. Jedoch können die Bereiche auch mehrere Abschnitte umfassen, die zudem nicht zusammenhängend angeordnet sein müssen.The three areas 12, 16, 18 are shown here as continuous areas. However, the areas may also include multiple sections, which in addition do not need to be contiguous.

Der erste Bereich 12 ist aus hartem Material, insbesondere aus Hartplastik, und wird durch Spritzgießen hergestellt.The first region 12 is made of hard material, in particular hard plastic, and is produced by injection molding.

Der zweite Bereich 16 ist ebenfalls aus Kunststoff, jedoch aus weichem Material. Dieses Material sorgt insbesondere für eine gute Griffigkeit.The second region 16 is also made of plastic, but of soft material. This material ensures in particular for a good grip.

Das Material des dritten Bereichs 18 ist ein Gel und als Kissen ausgebildet. Das Material, das für den dritten Bereich 18 verwendet wird, ist dasselbe Material, wie es in Fahrrad-Sätteln verwendet wird. Gele haben Eigenschaften, die für die Anwendung als Griffe geeignet sind, nämlich eine nicht zu schnelle Rückverformung und eine hohe Nachgiebigkeit.The material of the third region 18 is a gel and formed as a cushion. The material used for the third region 18 is the same material as used in bicycle saddles. Gels have properties suitable for use as handles, namely, not too fast rebound and high compliance.

Der dritte Bereich 18 wird mit dem Griff 10 durch Aufspritzen verbunden oder durch Einlegen an dem Griff 10 angeordnet. Diese Verfahren sind an sich bekannt, deshalb wird hier nicht darauf eingegangen.The third area 18 is connected to the handle 10 by spraying or placed on the handle 10 by insertion. These methods are known per se, therefore will not be discussed here.

Das Material des dritten Bereichs 18 weist eine geringere Härte auf als das Material des zweiten Bereichs 16. Dadurch ist der dritte Bereich 18 verformbarer als der zweite Bereich 16.The material of the third region 18 has a lower hardness than the material of the second region 16. As a result, the third region 18 is more deformable than the second region 16.

Der erste Bereich 12 weist eine Aussparung 14 (Fig. 2) an einem Ende des Griffs 10 auf, in der der Schaft (nicht gezeigt) des Werkzeugs befestigt wird. Die Aussparung 14 ist vorzugsweise beim Spritzgießen des ersten Bereichs 12 entstanden. In die Aussparung 14 wird der Schaft des Werkzeugs mit Preßsitz angeordnet oder durch geeignete Kleber befestigt.The first region 12 has a recess 14 (FIG. Fig. 2 ) at one end of the handle 10, in which the shaft (not shown) of the tool is attached. The Recess 14 is preferably formed during injection molding of the first region 12. In the recess 14, the shank of the tool is press-fitted or fixed by suitable adhesive.

Die Verbindung des Schaftes mit dem jeweiligen Griff 10 kann auch durch Umspritzen des Schaftes (nicht gezeigt) erfolgen.The connection of the shaft with the respective handle 10 can also be done by insert molding of the shaft (not shown).

Da der erste Bereich 12 den Schaft (nicht gezeigt) des Werkzeugs aufnimmt, ist es notwendig, daß der zweite und dritte Bereich 16, 18 auf eine bestimmte Tiefe des Griffs 10 begrenzt sind. Um eine dauerhafte Verbindung zu gewährleisten, ist es nämlich wichtig, daß der Schaft (nicht gezeigt) des Werkzeugs in dem unverformbaren Material des ersten Bereichs 12 eingebettet ist.Since the first portion 12 receives the shank (not shown) of the tool, it is necessary that the second and third portions 16, 18 are limited to a certain depth of the handle 10. Namely, to ensure a permanent connection, it is important that the shank (not shown) of the tool is embedded in the non-deformable material of the first region 12.

Die Form des Griffs 10 für Zangen oder ähnliche Werkzeuge ist bekannt. Dabei ist die Form des Griffs 10 an die Anatomie der Hand angepaßt und weist deswegen einen geschwungenen oberen Rand gemäß Figur 2 auf.The shape of the grip 10 for pliers or similar tools is known. The shape of the handle 10 is adapted to the anatomy of the hand and therefore has a curved upper edge according to FIG. 2 on.

Der Griff 10 weist einen vorstehenden Abschnitt 19 auf, der den Griff 10 zum Werkzeug hin abgrenzt. Der vorstehende Abschnitt 19 ist bei Griffen 10 bekannt. Der vorstehende Abschnitt 19 kann die Hand abhalten, das Werkzeug zu berühren und sich dabei zu verletzen.The handle 10 has a protruding portion 19 which delimits the handle 10 toward the tool. The protruding portion 19 is known for handles 10. The protruding portion 19 may prevent the hand from touching and injuring the tool.

Bei der Bedienung des Werkzeugs liegt die Hand, insbesondere in dem Bereich zwischen Daumen und Zeigefinger, an dem vorstehenden Abschnitt 19 des Griffs 10 an. Da an dem vorstehenden Abschnitt 19 des Griffs 10 die Hand während des gesamten Bedienens des Werkzeugs anliegt und zudem der anliegende Bereich der Hand zwischen Daumen und Zeigefinger besonders empfindlich ist, ist die Gefahr von Quetschstellen groß. Deshalb besteht der vorstehende Abschnitt 19 des Griffs 10 an der der Hand zugewandten Seite aus verformbarem Material, insbesondere dem zuvor beschriebenen Gel des dritten Bereichs 18, während dir Rückseite des vorstehenden Abschnitts 19, also die der Hand abgewandten Seite, aus dem ersten Bereich 12 aus hartem Material ist, um die erforderliche Festigkeit zur Aufnahme des Werkzeugs zu gewährleisten und der Abstützung der Hand zu dienen.In the operation of the tool, the hand, in particular in the area between the thumb and forefinger, on the protruding portion 19 of the handle 10 at. Since at the protruding portion 19 of the handle 10, the hand rests during the entire operation of the tool and also the adjacent area of the hand between the thumb and forefinger is particularly sensitive, the risk of pinching is large. Therefore, the protruding portion 19 of the handle 10 on the hand-facing side of deformable material, in particular the previously described gel of the third region 18, while you back of the protruding portion 19, so the hand-facing side, from the first region 12 of Hard material is around To ensure the required strength for receiving the tool and to serve the support of the hand.

Anschließend an den dritten Bereich 18 ist der zweite Bereich 16 angeordnet. Dabei kann der zweite Bereich 18 eine rutschfeste Oberfläche aufweisen, um die Griffigkeit zu erhöhen und dadurch das Bedienen des Werkzeugs zu verbessern, so daß selbst mit feuchten und schmutzigen Händen ein leichtes Bedienen möglich ist.Subsequent to the third region 18, the second region 16 is arranged. In this case, the second region 18 may have a non-slip surface to increase the grip and thereby improve the operation of the tool, so that even with wet and dirty hands, an easy operation is possible.

Jeder Griff 10 weist einen Abschnitt 20 auf, der aus demselben Material wie der erste Bereich 12 ist. Der Abschnitt 20 verhindert, daß ein Teil der Hand, insbesondere ein Finger, zwischen die beiden Griffe 10 gelangen kann und dabei eingeklemmt wird.Each handle 10 has a portion 20 which is of the same material as the first portion 12. The portion 20 prevents a part of the hand, in particular a finger, can get between the two handles 10 and is trapped.

An dem Abschnitt 20 ist ein Loch 22 gezeigt, wobei der zweite Griff 10 ein identisches Loch 22 aufweist. Eine Feder (nicht gezeigt) wird bekannterweise zwischen den beiden Griffen 10 angeordnet und kann so beim Auseinanderziehen des Werkzeugs behilflich sein.At the portion 20, a hole 22 is shown, wherein the second handle 10 has an identical hole 22. A spring (not shown) is known to be disposed between the two handles 10 and may thus assist in pulling the tool apart.

Durch die drei Bereiche 12, 16, 18 kann sich der Griff 10 der Anatomie der Hand anpassen. Die Bedienung des Griffs 10 wird angenehmer und Quetschstellen an der Hand vermieden.Through the three areas 12, 16, 18, the handle 10 can adapt to the anatomy of the hand. The operation of the handle 10 is pleasant and crushing points on the hand avoided.
