Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for releasably connecting strings, which has a sleeve-like first retaining element for a first string and a bolt-like second retaining element for a second string, wherein the second retaining element insertable into the first retaining element and both for connecting and for releasing the two holding elements in an axial direction is movable.
  • a generic device for releasably connecting strings is for example from the DE 197 56 598 A1 the applicant known.
  • the device described in this patent application is provided in particular for connecting the cords and the harness cords of the weaving harness of a jacquard machine. Since such Jacquard machines must be able to connect cords within a very short time and separate again from each other, was sought for solutions that allow a corresponding connection or disconnection in the simplest possible way and with ease of use. It offers from the DE 197 56 598 A1 known solution in particular the ability to make the connection and disconnection by only a single operation, namely a compression of the two holding elements in the axial direction.
  • the known solution has various actuating and latching means which, in cooperation with a plurality of guide means in a stop position of the second holding element for connecting or releasing, cause a relative movement of the first and second holding elements in a plane perpendicular to the axial direction.
  • actuating and latching means which, in cooperation with a plurality of guide means in a stop position of the second holding element for connecting or releasing, cause a relative movement of the first and second holding elements in a plane perpendicular to the axial direction.
  • a disadvantage of the known from the prior art device for releasably connecting strings is that the individual elements of the Device are constructed relatively complex.
  • a third element in the form of a so-called sliding part is provided, which cooperates in a special way with the two holding elements to initiate the desired relative movement, which is required for locking or releasing the locking. Due to the requirement of a third component, however, the device is relatively complex and thus costly in their production. In addition, the handling of the device is difficult, the more components it has.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to provide a novel or improved device for releasably connecting strings, in which the disadvantages or limitations described in connection with the prior art are avoided.
  • the solution according to the invention is based on a special embodiment of the bolt-like second holding element. According to the invention it is provided that this is designed as a one-piece component, which has a first, so-called. Actuating parts, and a second, so-called. Detent parts having area, both areas are interconnected.
  • this embodiment of the second retaining element according to the invention it is now possible to dispense with the sliding part which is still required in the prior art. Instead, all elements or components which effect the particular movement between the first and the second holding element with one another for latching or releasing the latch, are arranged on one of the two holding elements.
  • the inventive device for releasably connecting strings accordingly consists exclusively of two separate elements or components, which on the one hand brings advantages in the production and on the other hand advantages in the handling of the device.
  • a device for releasably connecting strings which has a sleeve-like first retaining element for a first string and a bolt-like second retaining element for a second string, wherein the second retaining element inserted into the first retaining element and for connecting and detaching the two holding elements in an axial direction is movable and wherein the second holding element actuating and locking parts, which in Collaboration with located on the first holding element guiding and locking parts in a stop position of the second holding element for connecting or releasing cause a relative movement of the first and the second holding element in a plane perpendicular to the axial direction.
  • the second holding element is configured as a one-piece component with a first region having the latching parts and a second region having the actuating parts.
  • the two areas of the second holding element are arranged one behind the other as seen in the axial direction.
  • both areas of the second holding element are flexibly connected to each other.
  • the two regions are connected to each other via a connection region, which is designed such that a relative movement of the two regions in the plane perpendicular to the axial direction is made possible.
  • the second holding element can be configured in one piece despite everything, since there is always the possibility to design the connection area in a corresponding manner, that the flexible connection is ensured.
  • the connection area could be suitably dimensioned.
  • Another possibility would be to use a special material for this connection area which has the required flexibility.
  • the second holding element could be produced in a multi-component injection molding process. In any case, the solution of the invention has significant advantages over previously used devices, since only two different components must be manufactured and handled, which is cheaper and easier.
  • the present invention relates to a measure by which the axial centering of the second holding element is ensured during insertion into the first holding element.
  • the first holding element has a bottom-side depression, which cooperates with a conical tip at the front end of the second holding element. In this way, it is ensured that, in principle, there is a suitable alignment of the various latching, actuating and guide parts. This ensures that the various elements also interact as intended.
  • FIGS. 1, 2, 3a and 3b first show the general structure of the connecting device according to the invention or the elements used for this purpose.
  • the device has two holding elements provided with the reference numerals 1 and 2, wherein a first holding element 1 is designed in the form of a sleeve, while on the other hand a second holding element 2 is designed as a bolt.
  • Both holding elements 1 and 2 have at each of an end-side end portion 11 and 7, a conical taper for attaching one or more cords, as shown in the illustrations in the FIGS. 3a and 3b can be removed. By locking the two holding elements 1 and 2 together, these strings can therefore be connected to each other.
  • the two holding elements 1 and 2 are designed such that the connection of these or the release of the interconnected elements 1, 2 can be done in a simple manner. In particular, only a single action is required for the connection or the release, namely a compression of both elements in the axial direction. This is achieved by a special embodiment of the two elements, which will be explained below.
  • the first support member 1 over a certain length on a cylindrical cavity 12, which is provided for receiving the second bolt-like support member 2 is.
  • This cylinder-like cavity 12 is in its end facing the conical end 11 in a slightly narrower sized cavity 13, wherein the transition is achieved by a subsequent to the bottom side of the cavity 12 conical portion 13 a.
  • this embodiment in cooperation with a centering part of the second holding element 2, achieves that an axial centering of the second holding element 2 takes place in the first holding element 1.
  • the latching or releasing the latching between the two holding elements 1 and 2 is achieved, inter alia, by guiding and locking parts, which are arranged within the cylindrical cavity 12.
  • First latching parts 15 are arranged in the input region of the sleeve, whereas the guide parts 20 are arranged in the bottom region of the hollow space 12.
  • the embodiment of both the locking parts 15 and the guide members 20 may in particular the illustration in FIG. 5 as well as the two sectional views of the Figures 6a and 6b be removed.
  • each locking part 15 and four guide members 20 are provided, which are arranged distributed over the inner circumference of the sleeve. It is important that each one locking part 15 is arranged exactly above a guide member 20.
  • Both the latching parts 15 and the guide parts 20 are formed by protruding from the wall of the sleeve 1 in the interior 12 pins which at its upper end two laterally to the longitudinal center axis - for example, at an angle of approximately 45 ° - sloping guide surfaces 16a, 16b or 20a, 20b have.
  • a further guide surface 17 is also formed, which in turn extends in relation to the axial direction of the locking parts 15 in an oblique plane.
  • the configuration of the second holding element 2 can in particular the representations in the Figures 2 and 7 - 9 be removed.
  • the second holding element 2 has a conical taper 5 which, upon insertion of the bolt into the sleeve, comes into contact with the conical region 13a of the first holding element 1 and thereby causes self-centering of the second holding element 2 in the first holding element 1.
  • the latching and releasing of the two holding elements 1, 2 is effected by locking parts 30 and actuating parts 35 located on the second holding element 2, which interact in a special way with the guide parts 20 and latching parts 15 of the first holding element 1.
  • the particular embodiment of the locking parts 30 and actuators 35 may in particular the representations of Figures 8, 9a and 9b be removed.
  • the latching parts 30 are each formed by a shorter side part 31 and a longer side part 32, which are connected to each other on its underside by an obliquely to the axial direction of the support member 2 extending guide surface 33. Between both side parts 31 and 32, which at their upper ends in each case parallel to the guide surface 33 extending chamfers 31a and 32a, thus an open towards the top recess 30a is formed. As FIG. 9a can be removed, four locking parts 30 are arranged distributed on the outside of the second support member 2.
  • actuating parts 35 are arranged, which in turn are designed as protruding pins to the outside.
  • the actuating members 35 each have two laterally inclined to the longitudinal central axis guide surfaces 35a and 35b, on their upper sides is a single, again obliquely inclined to the longitudinal central axis guide surface 36 is provided.
  • 9a and 9b eight actuating members 35 are arranged distributed over the circumference of the second holding member 2, which - in contrast to the guide and locking parts 15, 20 of the first holding element - not directly below the side parts 31 and 32 of the locking members 30, but instead slightly offset thereto are.
  • the second holding elements 2 is divided into two areas 3 and 4, wherein the locking parts 30 are arranged on the first region 3 and the actuating members 35 on the second region 4.
  • Both regions 3 and 4 are connected to one another via a connection region 6, wherein this connection region 6 is designed such that a relative movement of the two regions 3 and 4 in a plane perpendicular to the axial direction is made possible. This can be achieved, for example, by a corresponding shaping for the connection region 6.
  • connection region 6 a flexible material use.
  • the second holding element 2 is designed in one piece, which can be achieved, for example, that this is produced in a so-called multi-component injection molding process, in which case a somewhat more flexible material is selected for the formation of the transition region 6.
  • FIGS. 10a-h or 11a-h show the individual phases of the assignment of the different parts to each other during the process of locking, while the FIGS. 11a-h show the individual phases when releasing the locking.
  • the dimensions of the holding elements 1 and 2 and the guide, actuating and locking parts 15, 20, 30 and 35 is selected such that the cavity 12 can completely accommodate the second holding member 2, however, seen in cross section there is an overlap of the guiding and locking parts 15, 20 projecting towards the inside with the latching and actuating parts 30, 35 projecting outwards. This allows the various elements to interact as described below.
  • FIG. 10a shows the arrangement of the latching and guide parts 15, 20 of the first holding element 1 with respect to the latching and actuating parts 30, 35 of the second holding element 2 in an initial stage of the latching. Shown is a state in which the second retaining element 2 has already been introduced so far into the first retaining element 1, that the actuating parts 35 come with their lower ends in abutment against the guide members 20.
  • the corresponding alignment of the actuating members 35 on the guide members 20 is achieved in that the gap between the locking members 15 of the first support member 1 is dimensioned such that the locking members 30 of the second support member 2 are guided in a defined arrangement by these clearances. This has the consequence that the guide surfaces 20a and 35a of the guide and operating parts 20, 35 come into abutment against each other.
  • a locking of the two holding elements 1 and 2 or a release of the latch can always be achieved by the same operation, namely a nesting of the two parts and a subsequent pulling apart.
  • Both the latching and the release of the latching thus take place in the context of a snap-rotary movement, which brings a simplification in the handling of the device according to the invention.
  • Of particular importance here is that only an axial actuation of the two holding elements is required, so that the latching or releasing the latch can also be carried out automatically or mechanically.
  • a particular advantage of the device according to the invention consists in the fact that the device consists exclusively of two elements, which must be moved to each other. This is made possible by the above-described flexible arrangement of the actuating and locking parts of the second holding element to each other, which allows the required relative to the locking and releasing the locking relative movement of the various elements to each other.
  • an actuation of only two components in an automated manner is again significantly easier to implement than was possible in the prior art in which three components were to be handled.
  • the production of the entire device is simplified by reducing the number of components to be manufactured.
  • FIG. 13 An alternative embodiment of a device according to the invention is finally in FIG. 13 shown.
  • the first holding element 101 on its underside a hook 102, which can be used for example for hanging several cords.
  • This hook 102 can optionally be opened or closed, so that, for example, can be done easily hooking additional harness cords.
  • the holding elements 2 and 101 are again constructed in the manner already explained above. In particular, these in turn have the specially designed guide, actuating and locking parts, wherein the actuating and locking parts of the second holding element are arranged in two different areas, which are connected to each other in a flexible manner.
