The former receptor includes individual rails running in different contours, where the rails are fixed to the tables and/or walls.

Description

The invention relates to a room design system.

Room design systems of this type are required for rooms in buildings, these rooms may be formed in particular of office space, classrooms, conference rooms or seminar rooms.

In particular, the spaces of classrooms may be formed in schools. In such classrooms, typically height-adjustable and fixed board systems arranged in the front area are available as presentation systems. In these classic classrooms, students are taught in a so-called "frontal classroom", meaning that the teacher teaches in the front area in front of the board system, the benches in the classroom are oriented in such a way that the students' viewpoints are aligned with the teacher.

In the course of the introduction of novel learning methods such as the implementation of group work or generally team-oriented working methods is increasingly a departure from the known frontal teaching. The modification of the lemming methods is accompanied by a change in the requirements for the premises in the school sector.

The implementation of group work and team-oriented project work requires the use of suitable learning tools, which include computers but also presentation systems for the visualization of work results.

In accordance with these requirements, there is also a need to redesign classic classrooms. By dividing the class association into individual groups and teams, these preferably require demarcated areas, with different learning tools and in particular presentation systems being required in the individual group areas. The stationary in the front of the classroom arranged board systems are completely inadequate for this purpose.

In principle, these requirements can be met by purchasing new furniture suitable for this purpose. However, this requires high investment, for which there are insufficient funds, especially in the public sector.

The invention has for its object to provide a space design system of the type mentioned, which is flexible and which can also be created inexpensively.

To solve this problem, the features of claim 1 are provided. Advantageous embodiments and expedient developments of the invention are described in the subclaims.

The room design system according to the invention comprises an arrangement of panels whose front and rear sides form presentation surfaces and an arrangement of first images for reversibly releasable attachment of the panels to furniture and / or walls of a room and an arrangement of second images, on which panels for the formation of room dividers reversibly releasably fastened.

A significant advantage of the inventive room design system is that can be used by the inventive design of recordings panels in different numbers and sizes both as a presentation device and as a room divider systems.

Another significant advantage of the invention is that the room design system according to the invention can be installed in rooms, without having to change the furniture or other facilities or even need to be replaced by new units. Rather, the shots form modular units that can be easily attached to existing units of rooms, especially furniture and walls.

The inventive room design system can thus be installed at low cost, with this at the same time a flexible and diverse interior design is feasible.

The first images of the interior design system according to the invention preferably consist of individual rails or rail systems with several rails running in different contour lines. These can be easily fixed to furniture, especially cabinets, with a significant advantage here is that the furniture no structural changes or adjustments must be made to perform the installation of rails or rail systems. Furthermore, the rails or rail systems can be attached to the walls of rooms.

The panels used for presentation purposes are slidably mounted on these rails or rail systems. For this purpose, brackets are provided as further components, which are preferably screwed to the upper edges of the panels. The screw connections form reversibly releasable fastening means, so that, depending on requirements, the holders can be fastened to different panels.

For guidance in the rails, the brackets have guide elements. Expediently, the guide elements open out on the undersides of the holders, so that holders with a panel fixed thereto can easily be hooked into the respective rail.

Particularly advantageously, each holder has two guide elements which protrude beyond this on both sides of a panel fixed thereto. As a result, either the holder with the first or second guide element can be hung in the rail. This ensures that the fixed to the brackets panel can be selectively turned and can be performed as needed with the first or second presentation surface visible on the rails. Thus, both presentation surfaces of the board are available for labeling or generally for presentation purposes.

The panels led to cabinets or the like in the first recordings can preferably fulfill a dual function, in which they are used in addition to the actual intended use as a presentation means as doors for otherwise open cabinets.

Alternatively, the panels can be routed to fronts of cupboards in front of the doors of these cabinets. It is advantageous here that the function of the doors, which are preferably designed as sliding doors, is not impaired by the panels guided in front of them.

In the event that the panels are stored in the second recordings of the room design system according to the invention, these room dividers form within the respective room. The second images are preferably formed in the form of uprights. The panels can be mounted there simply by plugging in clamp brackets or the like. Even when used as a room divider both presentation surfaces of the panels are available for presentation purposes. For individual adaptation of the presentation surfaces, the stands are adjustable in height, so that the mounting heights of the panels can be varied as needed.

In general, the first and second receptacles are designed such that the panels can optionally be attached to these.

The space design system according to the invention thus formed thus opens up a wide variety of design and utilization possibilities for rooms with a low cost and material outlay.

The space concept according to the invention can be used both in offices as well as in seminar and conference rooms. Particularly advantageous classrooms can be equipped in schools with the interior design system according to the invention. In this way, conventional classrooms can be easily extended in their functionality, so that modern teaching methods such as group work and teamwork can be flexibly carried out there with a high standard of quality. By attaching the first images to the walls and cabinets of the classroom, panels can be slidably arranged there and used as a presentation medium. The arrangement of panels in the second recordings, the classroom can be divided into different segments in different ways, so that in the thus separated subspaces individual groups of the class association can work undisturbed different tasks.

The brackets 4 are each fastened with screws 5 at the upper edge of the panel 1. In the center of the holder 4, a recess opening out on the underside thereof is provided, which forms a catch receptacle 6 for the panel 1. The recess extends over the entire length of the holder 4 and has a constant, adapted to the width of the panel 1 cross-section. On both sides of the locking receptacle 6, two identically designed guide elements 7 are provided.

The thus formed holder 4 is formed mirror-symmetrically to the longitudinal axis thereof. The guide elements 7 are formed essentially by recesses opening out on the underside of the holder 4, the shapes of which are adapted to the shape of the rail element 3b of the rail 3. In the present case, the guide elements 7 are formed as sliding fittings. Alternatively, rollers can also be arranged in the guide elements 7, so that the guide elements 7 form roller bearings.

Each of the guide elements 7 projects beyond one of the presentation surface 1a, 1b of the panel 1. For storage on the rail 3 can optionally one of the guide elements 7 are hooked into the rail element 3b of the rail 3, whereby the panel 1 with one or the other presentation surface 1a, 1b is visibly mounted on the wall 2 slidably.

FIG. 2 shows a development of the first recordings of the room design system according to FIG. 1. In this case, the first recordings have a rail system 3 ', which in turn is fastened to a wall 2. The rail system 3 'has two rails 3 in the present case on the base body 3a of the rail system 3' are two in different contour lines, parallel to each other and identically formed Rail elements 3b. On the rail elements 3 b of the rails 3 formed in this way, panels 1 can in turn be displaceably mounted with the holders 4. As shown in FIG. 2, a first panel 1 is guided on the lower rail 3. For this purpose, analogously to the embodiment according to FIG. 1, holders 4 with guide elements 7 are screwed to the upper edge of the panel 1. By hanging one of the guide elements 7 of these brackets 4, this first panel 1 is slidably guided in a first plane on the rail system 3 '.

On the second upper rail 3 of the rail system, a second panel 1 is guided in a plane oriented parallel to the first panel 1. For this purpose, 1 holders 4 are fixed again at the top of this second panel. However, the guide elements 7 of these brackets 4 are not guided in the second rail 3. Rather, the brackets 4 are connected to the second panel 1 via web-shaped connecting elements 8 with further brackets 4. The connecting elements are made of metal and / or plastic and can be connected by screw connections to the brackets 4. At these brackets 4 no panel 1 is fixed. Rather, these serve solely for guiding in the second rail 3. By the construction of the brackets 4 connected via the connecting elements 8, the second panel 4 is guided at a greater distance than the first panel 1 to the rail system 3 '.

As optional fixing elements 3 'steel bands 9 are attached to the main body of the rail system. There can then be fixed with magnetic heads and the like presentation elements such as posters, papers and the like. Finally, as further fixing elements on the underside of the rail system 3 ', pinch rollers 10 for fixing further presentation elements are arranged.

In this case, a panel 1 is slidably mounted on the front side of the cabinet 14, which extends over the entire height of the cabinet 14. In this case, the panel 1 forms, in addition to a presentation unit, a door for the cabinet 14 at the same time. Due to its high weight, the panel 1 is guided at its upper and lower edges by means of the holders 4 in rails 3.

FIG. 5 shows a second receptacle for panels 1 as part of the interior design system. The second receptacle is in the form of a stand 16. The stand 16 has on its upper side a clamping bracket 16a, in which the panel 1 can be inserted. Preferably, the panel 1 is held solely by the clamping action in the stator 16, so that further fastening means for fixing the panel 1 are not necessary. The underside of the stand 16 forms a foot portion 16b with which the panel 1 can be placed with the stand 16 on the floor of a room. Conveniently, the stand 16 in addition to a height adjustment, not shown, whereby the mounting height of the panel 1 on the stand 16 can be changed as needed.
