Description

The invention relates to a waste collector extracting device with a holding frame for inserting refuse collectors, wherein the holding frame has a peripheral, an opening for inserting a waste bin bounding outer web, possibly further a divider for subdivision into at least two preferably rectangular, separate openings for use each one Garbage collector in each opening.

Waste collector extracting devices of the type in question are known. These have a holding frame, which is fastened to, for example, telescopically extendable rails. For waste separation such support frame carry several, usually two separate waste collectors, including the holding frame has corresponding openings.

In view of the known prior art, a technical problem of the invention is seen in a waste collector extracting device of the type in question in terms of the design of the holding frame and the inclusion of waste collectors to further improve.

This problem is initially and essentially solved by the subject matter of claim 1, wherein it is pointed out that a separate transverse web is provided which can be used to achieve a subdivision or to change the subdivision into intended Befestigungsausformungen of the separating web or the outer web. According to this embodiment, a generic pull-out device is provided, which allows at least one opening for receiving a waste collector by means of, for example, between divider and facing parallel to the divider extending portion of the outer web or between parallel outer web sections used crosspiece further divided, for receiving two . correspondingly smaller waste collector in the originally an opening. Thus, in one embodiment of the holding frame with two preferably rectangular openings for receiving a waste collector provided that one of these openings is further subdivided by means of the transverse web, to form two smaller ground plan smaller openings. Furthermore, this transverse web can be arranged, for example, in the center of the longitudinal extension of the separating web in a rectangular arrangement with respect to it. Accordingly, in this case the Befestigungsausformungen the divider and possibly the facing outer web are positioned. In addition to the described division of a holding frame opening into two smaller openings of the same size, other divisions are also conceivable by appropriate positioning of the fastening formations, for example one third to two thirds. Such a subdivision can also be provided by means of a transverse web with holding frames which have more than two openings separated by separating webs, thus, for example, three successively arranged in the direction of extension, possibly equal openings. In such a configuration, for example, by using a transverse web, one of the openings may be subdivided, so on, for example, a central one, wherein the transverse web is then used in Befestigungsausformungen two spaced apart partitions. In addition, by using the separate transverse web only a subdivision can be achieved in frames whose outer webs comprise an opening. The assignment of the transverse web to the separating web or to the outer web can be formed reversible. Solutions are also conceivable in which, after being fitted with a transverse web and associated subdivision of one of the openings, the configuration found is not or can not be canceled without tools.

The subjects of the further claims are explained below in relation to the subject matter of claim 1, but may also be significant in their independent formulation.

Thus, it proves to be further advantageous if the cross bar with the divider or the outer bar is clipverbindbar. This clip connection can be set reversibly. In a uniform material configuration of the extension device and further also of the cross bar and the elements for forming the clip connection are preferably formed of the same material, so further preferably on the part of the crossbar by forming spring-loaded locking lugs, the separating web and / or outside ridge side can engage in correspondingly positioned latching formations , It is further provided that the formation is formed barb-like manner for clip connection to the crossbar, according to this embodiment initially a non-reversible fixing of the crosspiece in the desired division position can be achieved. It is conceivable in this connection a solution of the connection by means of a tool or the like, provided that corresponding tool engagement openings are provided in the region of the separating and / or outer web for acting on the barbs.

The crosspiece further preferably has a U-shaped profile in cross section. This may in a preferred embodiment downwards, i. to be open in the filling direction. It is preferred in this regard that the U-legs have a multiple of the length dimension of the U-web. The relevant length of the U-leg connecting the U-legs in cross-section is defined here approximately by the distance of mutually parallel U-legs to each other, according to the width dimension of the U-shaped profile.

In the longitudinal direction of the transverse web, the U-web protrudes in a preferred embodiment, in each case via an end-side end surface of the transverse web on which a connecting part is formed on the outside, in the form of a roof section. Accordingly, the U-web is in longitudinal extension with respect to the flanking U-thighs extended measure provided. The projecting roof sections of the U-web are further preferably formed on both sides of the end of the U-web equal; collar plate-shaped over the facing end edges of the U-legs. On the underside of these roof sections are assigned in a further preferred embodiment, the end edge edges of the U-leg provided for the preferred clip connection connecting parts of the crosspiece, this further advantageously in the region of one, the opening between the U-legs closing end plate. In an exemplary embodiment, the roof section only partially covers the connecting formation, so that, in particular in a unique position of the transverse web in a projection onto the U-web and the roof sections integrally formed thereon, the connection formations provided on the underside thereof, in particular the effective sections, partially protrude beyond them preferably in the direction of an extension of the U-web.

The crosspiece can have stabilizing transverse walls distributed over its length. These preferably extend perpendicular to the alignment of the U-legs between them, connecting them, wherein each further end of the U-legs such stabilizing transverse walls can simultaneously form the end walls. The stabilizing transverse walls are further preferably made of the same material integrally with the U-profile. Also, the transverse web can have one or more longitudinal wall sections formed independently of the U-legs, in particular arranged centrally between the U-legs. These longitudinal wall sections preferably run parallel to the U-legs, if necessary provided by passing stabilization transverse walls. The longitudinal wall sections are provided in particular for stabilizing the connecting regions of the transverse web, thus correspondingly preferably positioned in the end regions of the transverse web considered in the longitudinal extension. Thus, a longitudinal wall portion may be formed in continuation of a Verbindungsausformung, which Verbindungsausformung outside wall side an end-side end wall is arranged, while the associated longitudinal wall portion between the U-legs positioned from the Verbindungsausformung the supporting end wall extends in the direction away from Verbindungsausformung direction.

The separating web of the holding frame can be designed so bent that a removal of the inserted crosspiece is made possible by the bending. The Ausbiegmaß the divider is here a few millimeters, so for example. 2 to 5 mm.

Also, two transverse webs may be provided for optional installation together with the pullout device, whereby the subdivision of the holding frame is further variable. Thus, for example, a holding frame, which is provided with a divider and initially has two equal sized separate openings, are divided into three separate openings by using a transverse web between divider and parallel outer ridge, with a separate opening about twice the two by the Cross bar corresponds to separate openings. By using a second crosspiece in the larger separate opening, this is further subdivided, so that hereafter set four equal, separate openings. In this context, it is further conceivable that a transverse web for dividing an opening between an already used transverse web and a parallel thereto outer web of the holding frame for further subdivision of a partitioned off by a transverse web opening can be used.

A further stabilization of the holding frame or portions of the holding frame can be achieved by separately provided in the divider and / or in the outer web of an outer wall longitudinal wall sections are provided. In an exemplary embodiment of the separating web and / or the outer web with a U-shaped cross-section run the trained Longitudinal wall sections parallel between the outer wall forming U-legs, so further preferably centrally between them. These separate longitudinal wall sections are more preferably placed between two spaced-apart, generally over the entire length of the separating web and / or the outer web regularly spaced provided transverse stabilizing webs and further preferably formed transversely to the extension of the transverse web. These longitudinal wall sections serve, in particular, for stabilizing the connecting zones cooperating with the transverse web, for which purpose a longitudinal wall section is formed in register with a connecting formation of the transverse web. Accordingly, the longitudinal wall portion extends shield-like back of cooperating with the querstegseitigen Verbindungsausformung connection recess in the divider and / or in the outer web, said further this longitudinal wall portion can also serve to solve the reversible preferably only by a tool connection of the cross bar with the divider and / or the outer web , so on, for example, to the guided system of acting on the preferred provided barbs Verbindungsausformung tool.

The crosspiece can be adhesively bonded or screwed or welded or riveted to the separating web or the outer web. In the simplest embodiment of the cross bar is only rest assured. In a preferred embodiment, the holding frame and / or the crosspiece made of a plastic material, more preferably produced in plastic injection molding.

a representation corresponding to FIG. 3, relating to a second embodiment.

Shown and described is first with reference to the representation in Fig. 1, an extraction device 1 for waste bin 3, 3 ', which pullout device 1 has a consisting of a plastic material support frame 2. This support frame 2 is attached to a telescopic extension 16, which latter is arranged in a cabinet 17, in particular kitchen cabinet and after opening a swing door 18 for relocation of the waste collector 3, 3 'in a filling position can be pulled out.

To operate the holding frame 2, that is to pull out by means of the telescopic extensions 16 from the cabinet 17 or for insertion into the same, the holding frame 2 is provided on the front side along an outer web 4 with a simultaneously forming a diaphragm handle 19.

The example shown in a detail in Fig. 3 support frame 2 has a rectangular plan, with a longer extension in the extension direction opposite to a shorter extension transverse to the extension direction. The outer contour defining portions of the holding frame 2 are referred to as outer webs 4. These are designed in cross-section substantially U-shaped, with U-legs 20 and a connecting them in cross-section U-web 21. The U-opening of the outer webs 4 point in the use position, for example. As shown in Fig. 1 down.

As can be further seen in particular from the illustration in FIG. 10, in particular the shorter outer webs 4 extending transversely to the extension direction are provided with stabilizing transverse walls 22. These extend below the respective U-webs 21 in transverse alignment with the longitudinal extension of the U-legs 20 between these U-legs 20, connecting them. The distance between the transverse walls 22 to each other is approximately constant over the length of the outer web. The distance corresponds approximately to two to three times the Querwanderstreckungsmaßes, ie the clear distance dimension of the U-legs 20 to each other.

The total of the outer webs 4 limited opening is divided by a central divider 5. This is centrally integrally formed on the longitudinal extent of extending in the extension direction outer webs 4 on the inside. Also this divider 5 is U-shaped in cross-section, with a U-web 21 and two parallel U-legs 20. Like the outer webs 4, in particular the transverse outer webs 4, and the divider 5 is provided with stabilizing transverse walls 22.

The divider 5 divides the limited by the outer webs 4 opening into two equal sized separate openings 6 for receiving waste collectors 3. These are inserted in the installed state of the pull-out device 1 as shown in Fig. 1 from above through the separate openings 6, and are supported in a known manner by means of a circumferential over the waste collector wall superior collar on the associated holding frame sections, composed of three outer web sections and the divider 5 from.

The proposed support frame 2 offers the possibility of further subdivision of at least one of the separate openings 6 into two openings of the same size 6 'for receiving appropriately circumferentially reduced waste collectors 3'.

The crosspiece 7 is similar to the outer webs 4 provided with a U-shaped hollow profile. The considered in cross-section width b of the profile resulting from the U-web 9 corresponds to about a quarter of the length dimension h (height) of the connected by the U-web 9 U-leg 23rd

Also, the transverse web 7 is provided with the U-legs 23 connecting, aligned perpendicular to these transverse walls 13. These are, as can be seen in particular from the illustration in Fig. 10, spaced from each other with a measure which corresponds approximately to four times the distance measure between the U-legs 23.

Each end side, the end edge edges of the U-legs 23 associated forms a transverse wall a closing surface 10. The closest to this end face 10 transverse wall 13 is less spaced from the end surface 10 than the adjacent transverse wall 13. Thus, the distance between the last transverse wall 13 and the end surface 10 about half the distance between two adjacent transverse walls 13 to each other.

The limited in the longitudinal extent of the cross bar 7 through the end face 10 and the next arranged transverse wall 13 compartment is divided by a parallel to the U-legs 23 centrally extending longitudinal wall portion 14, which latter extends from the underside of the ceiling-like U-web 9. This longitudinal wall section 14 passes through the first transverse wall 13 and extends from the end surface 10, starting at the end behind the first transverse web 13 molded tray, so in the illustrated embodiment, approximately to the center of extension of the same.

The vertical height of such a longitudinal wall section 14 - measured parallel to the leg height h - corresponds to about half of the leg height h.

The U-web 9 extends on both sides of the end surfaces 10 beyond the formation of respective roof sections 12, which protrude plate-like. The strength of these roof sections 12 corresponds to the thickness (material thickness) of the U-web 9. The projection size of each roof section 12 is also adapted to the material thickness of the U-web. 9

The roof portions 12 cover at least partially arranged below, integrally formed on the associated end surfaces 10 connecting parts 11. These are considered laterally substantially V-shaped, with a V-shaped opening, which faces in the direction of the associated roof portion 12.

With one of the V-legs, the connecting part 11 is integrally formed on the associated end surface 10. The free roots of this V-leg 24 forms a barb-like acting rear grip portion 25. About the, connecting the two V-legs root area is the freely projecting V-legs 24 spring-loaded, with a spring load to the outside, ie repellent from the end surface 10.

For this purpose, the divider 5 facing both sides of the separate openings 6 and the parallel to the divider 5 extending outer webs 4 at the, the separate openings 6 facing sides corresponding Befestigungsausformungen 8 on.

These are according to the illustrations in Figures 5 and 6 window-like openings, which enforce both a portion of the associated U-web 21 and the, the separate openings 6 facing U-leg 20.

The U-web-side window portion of the Befestigungsausformung 8 is adapted in plan view of the outline shape of a roof portion 12 of the transverse web to be used. 7

The window-like portion of the Befestigungsausformung 8 in the region of the U-leg is slit-like, funnel-shaped opening in the direction of the U-web-side window portion opening selected. Through the thus formed insertion slot 26, the connecting part 11 is guided with its V-legs for positioning the crosspiece 7, with insertion of the transverse web 7 from vertical top down in the direction of the support frame 2. Here, the crosspiece 7 learns through the interaction of connecting part 11 and a V-shaped tapered insertion slot 26 is a self-centering into an end position in which the roof sections 12 einliegen flush in the U-web-side window cutouts of Befestigungsausformungen 8.

In this retracted position of the rear engaging portion 25 having V-leg 24 is set in the course of the introduction of built spring tension automatically rebounding under the respective U-web 21 of the divider 5 and outer web 4. This creates a not releasable without tools clip connection.

The longitudinal wall sections 14, which are provided in extension as viewed in the longitudinal extension of the transverse web 7, of the connecting parts 11 between the U-legs 23 serve to further stabilize the end regions used for fixing the transverse web 7.

A stabilization of the holding frame 2, in particular of the cooperating with the transverse web 7 areas of the outer webs 4 and the separating web 5 is achieved by arranging related longitudinal wall sections 15. These run transversely to the orientation of the crosspiece 7; The longitudinal wall sections 15 are positioned at the rear of the fastening formations 8 between the U-legs 20. As can be seen in particular from the illustration in FIG. 9, this longitudinal wall section 15 can be used to remove the clip connection serve as a guide and counterpart for a tool to be introduced.

As shown in the illustrations, the arrangement of the fastening webs 8 serving to receive the transverse webs 7 is preferably provided centrally of the longitudinal extension of the outer web 4 and separating web 5. As a result, two of the same size, grundrissflächenmäßig compared to the original separate opening 6 smaller separate openings 6 'created to accommodate according to the floor plan area reduced waste collector 3'.

If the divider 5 on both sides, assigned to each separate opening 6 with a Befestigungsausformung 8 and have both parallel thereto extending outer webs 4 these formations 8, the crosspiece 7 can optionally in - with respect to the extension direction - front or rear separate opening 6 inserted to subdivide them.

Next there is also the possibility, as shown for example in Fig. 3 in dotted line type, the holding frame 2 to add two transverse webs 7, thereby to divide if desired, both separate openings 6 in the same size small openings 6 '.

Next possible, although not shown in the drawing, is also the arrangement of several Befestigungsausformungen 8, which are spaced from each other in juxtaposition on the divider 5 and the facing outer web 4 are provided. Thus, for example, there is the possibility of dividing the separate opening 6 into two smaller openings 6 ', for example in a ratio of one third to two thirds.

Also, a transverse web 7 of the type described with appropriate length dimension and formation of Befestigungsausformungen 8 at the opposite, extending in the extension direction outer webs 4 aligned parallel to the divider 5 in the separate opening 6 may be used to divide them further transversely to the extension direction.

In addition, a separate transverse web 7 according to the embodiment in Fig. 12 only provide a subdivision of an only limited by the outer webs 4 opening 6. Accordingly, no fixed separating web 5 is provided in this embodiment, so that the frame 2 in the basic configuration without transverse web 7 serves to accommodate only one, correspondingly large waste collector 3.

The arrangement of the separate transverse web 7 takes place transversely to the extension direction, to which the corresponding, opposite outer webs 4 Befestigungsausformungen 8 have, which allow the determination of the crosspiece 7 for dividing the opening 3 into two smaller, different areas having separate openings 6 '. There are in this respect per outer web 4 two spaced Befestigungsausformungen 8 is provided, for subdivision into a 1/3 opening 6 'and a 2/3 opening 6', wherein optionally the smaller opening 6 'in the extension direction in the front or rear part of the frame 2 can be formed.

In addition, a Befestigungsausformung 8 can be provided combinatively or alternatively for this purpose also in the middle of the longitudinal extent of the respective outer webs 4, for dividing the opening 6 into two equal, smaller openings 6 '.

Alternatively or in combination with the illustrated and described clip connection between the transverse web 7 and the support frame 2, the transverse web 7 can also be adhesively bonded, screwed, welded or even riveted, in particular, to the separating web 5 and the associated outer web 4.

All disclosed features are essential to the invention. The disclosure of the associated / attached priority documents (copy of the prior application) is hereby also incorporated in full in the disclosure of the application, also for the purpose of including features of these documents in claims of the present application.
