Definitions

  • the invention relates to a handle with a handle and a coupling lug for coupling with an element to be actuated.
  • the invention relates to door handles and window handles, in which the element to be actuated is designed as a square.
  • Such handles which are produced in particular when used as a door handle usually made of metallic materials and / or plastic, are known in various embodiments.
  • An object of the invention is therefore to provide a handle of the type mentioned, the production of which is possible with significantly reduced effort.
  • At least the handle consists of a cavity forming a sleeve and the cavity is filled with a introduced by means of a spraying and / or casting filling material, wherein the filling material in at least one Sleeve opening forms a visible surface area of the handle, and / or wherein the protruding from the sleeve or within the sleeve, in particular formed as a presser neck coupling approach is formed by the filler.
  • a sleeve-shaped element is provided by means of a spraying and / or casting process with an inner core consisting of suitable filling material, wherein the filling material assumes at least a double function.
  • said sleeve is filled by means of the filling material, so that it is given additional stability, on the other hand, however, the filling material can simultaneously form a visible surface region of the grip in the region of at least one sleeve opening.
  • the filling material can also be used to form the coupling projection formed, for example, as a pusher projection, which protrudes from the sleeve or can be located wholly or partly within the sleeve.
  • the invention thus encompasses manipulations in which the filling material either forms at least one visible surface region of the grip piece or the aforementioned coupling attachment, but also also handles in which the filling material forms both at least one visible surface region of the grip piece and the coupling attachment.
  • the filling material according to the invention is used to form the coupling approach, eliminating the need for known from the prior art handling attaching the coupling lug on the handle or the pusher neck completely, which already means a significant economic advantage. Furthermore, the entire production of the coupling approach is practically no additional expense, since this coupling approach within a single injection and / or casting process can be generated with the same time the sleeve is filled. Thus, according to the invention, the production of the coupling approach is almost completely eliminated. The attachment of the coupling attachment on the handle or the pusher neck and the usual, subsequent grinding operations are completely saved.
  • sleeve openings designed specifically for design purposes are formed as apertures in the sleeve, whereby such apertures can be introduced into the sleeve, for example by means of stamping, lasering or drilling.
  • Such breakthroughs are then inevitably penetrated by filling material in the context of the mentioned spraying and / or casting process, so that the filling material passes in the region of these openings in the region of the sleeve surface and forms a visible surface area of the handle. If such breakthroughs are introduced into the sleeve in a formally meaningful manner, a variety of creative effects can be achieved.
  • the surfaces of the sleeve and filling material in the region of at least one sleeve opening extend in different planes.
  • the shape of the respective sleeve opening or the respective Perforation feel which is particularly advantageous when using the handle according to the invention by the blind or visually impaired.
  • Said extension of the filling material in a plane other than the surface of the sleeve can be achieved, for example, simply by using a filling material which shrinks slightly after being introduced into the sleeve, for example by the action of heat during a grinding operation.
  • the design effects that can be achieved with the handle according to the invention are particularly effective if the filler material has a different color, a different reflection behavior and / or a different contrast than the surface of the sleeve material, since in this case by the filler formed visible surfaces of the handle can be clearly distinguished from the remaining surface of the sleeve material.
  • the sleeve material used is preferably stainless steel, brass, aluminum or another metallic material.
  • the holes form sleeve openings according to the invention, which ultimately correspond to the visible surface areas of the handle formed from filling material.
  • the sleeve preferably has a round, oval or angular cross-section. However, any other cross sections are equally feasible.
  • the filling material used is preferably plastic, zinc die casting or any other casting material.
  • An advantage is the use of a heat-resistant filling material, which withstands a grinding process without melting. To achieve a smooth surface of the finished handle, it makes sense to overspray the sleeve with filler something, so that the filler protrudes slightly from the sleeve openings. By means of a subsequent grinding process can then be ensured that the filler extends in the region of the sleeve openings in the same plane as the sleeve surface.
  • a thread can be cut before the injection or casting in the sleeve, the longitudinal axis extending perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the square.
  • the threaded hole produced in this way is filled with filling material, whereupon a hole is introduced through the thread into the filling material, which extends into the square hole provided for the square.
  • the thread again exposed, and on the other hand inevitably remains some filler in the threaded area, which counteracts the inadvertent loosening of the grub screw on penetration of a grub screw to secure the square.
  • the object underlying the invention is further achieved by a method according to claim 11 and in particular characterized in that for producing at least the handle, a cavity forming a sleeve is formed, and that the cavity of the sleeve by means of a spraying and / or casting method with filler such is filled, that the filling material in the region of at least one sleeve opening forms a visible surface area of the handle and / or that the protruding from the sleeve or located within the sleeve, in particular formed as a presser neck coupling approach is generated.
  • the method according to the invention can be used particularly advantageously if the generation of the coupling attachment and the positive filling of the sleeve cavity are carried out by means of a single injection and / or casting operation. In this case, no additional production time is needed for the production of the coupling approach, since this is automatically created in the context of said spraying and / or casting process.
  • the pusher neck can be made in a similar manner as the handle.
  • Pusher neck and handle usually extend approximately at right angles to each other and can form a single, common sleeve with a continuous cavity, which can preferably be filled by means of a single injection and / or casting process with filler. In this way, only a single injection and / or casting process is needed in the manufacture of a door handle or a window handle.
  • the surface of the sleeve filled with filling material is treated, in particular ground or polished, after the spraying and / or casting process.
  • a grinding or polishing process makes it possible, in particular, for the sleeve surface and the surface of the filling material in the visible area area to extend in a common plane so that practically no edges are left between filling material, provided that the filling material does not shrink during the grinding or polishing process. and sleeve surface are palpable.
  • Fig. 1 shows in cross section designed as a door handle handle according to the invention with a handle 1 and a perpendicular thereto extending pusher neck handle 2.
  • 1 and pusher neck 2 have together in a conventional manner an L-shape.
  • Both the handle 1 and the pusher neck 2 each consist of a circular cross-section (see Fig. 2) sleeve member 3, 4, which are miter-connected at 5.
  • the two sleeve elements 3, 4 enclose a continuous cavity, which at its front ends 6, 7 is open.
  • a sleeve opening in the region of the filling material 8 is a visible surface area of the finished door handle, which can also be seen from Fig. 3.
  • a coupling lug 9 is formed by the filler 8, which protrudes from the sleeve member 4.
  • the outer circumference of the coupling projection 9 in its protruding region is dimensioned slightly smaller than the inner circumference of the sleeve element 4.
  • a frontally open square hole 10 (see also Fig. 2) introduced, which serves to receive a commonly used in door hardware square ,
  • the introduction of the filling material 8 into the sleeve elements 3, 4 and the formation of the coupling attachment 9 with the square hole 10 can take place within a single injection process.
  • said additional sleeve openings are formed as three parallel rows of points that can extend either over only a portion of the circumference of the handle or over its entire circumference.
  • lettering was introduced into the grip piece by means of laser cutting so that filler material can likewise penetrate into the individual letters during the injection process and can ultimately form a visible surface area of the finished door handle.
