Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Revisionsabdekkung, mit einem Revisionsrahmen, femer mit einem in den Revisionsrahmen einsetzbaren Revisionsdeckel, weiter mit wenlgstens einer Verschlusseinheit, insbesondere Rastverschlusseinheit, zur lösbaren Verriegelung des Revisionsdeckels im Revisionsrahmen, und mit einer Fangvorrichtung für den Revisionsdeckel sowie zumindest einem Rahmenverbinder.The invention relates to a Revisionsabdekkung, with a revision frame, furthermore with an insertable into the revision frame inspection cover, further with at least one locking unit, in particular locking closure unit for releasably locking the inspection cover in the revision frame, and with a safety device for the inspection cover and at least one frame connector.

Wie üblich dient die Revisionsabdeckung allgemein dazu, den Zugang zu beispielsweise elektrischen oder sanitären Installationen hinter einer Wand- oder Deckenverkleidung zu ermöglichen. Zu diesem Zweck wird der Revisionsrahmen regelmäßig in einen zugehörigen Wand- und/oder Deckeneinbau eingelassen. Insgesamt soll sich die Revisionsabdeckung unauffällig in ein Wand-oder Deckenraster einfügen.As usual, revision coverage generally provides access to, for example, electrical or sanitary installations behind a wall or ceiling panel. For this purpose, the inspection frame is regularly embedded in an associated wall and / or ceiling installation. Overall, the revision cover should inconspicuously fit into a wall or ceiling grid.

Der Revisionsdeckel als solcher kann scharnierartig in dem Revisionsrahmen aufgenommen werden. Dann verfügt der Revisionsdeckel über beispielsweise Scharnierwinkel mit Scharnierschenkeln, die das angesprochene Scharnier definieren. Grundsätzlich kann der Revisionsdeckel aber auch ohne Scharniere in den Revisionsrahmen lösbar eingesetzt und mit dem Revisionsrahmen verriegelt werden. Hierfür sorgt die wenigstens eine Verschlusseinheit, bei welcher es sich im Allgemeinen um eine Rastverschlusseinheit handelt. - Mit Hilfe der Fangvorrichtung wird sichergestellt, dass der beispielsweise in Offenstellung befindliche Revisionsdeckel nicht aus dem Revisionsrahmen herausfällt.As such, the inspection cover can be hinged in the revision frame. Then the inspection cover has, for example, hinge angle with hinge legs that define the mentioned hinge. In principle, however, the inspection cover can also be used without hinges in the inspection frame detachably and locked with the revision frame. This is ensured by the at least one closure unit, which is generally a latching closure unit. - With the help of the safety gear ensures that the example located in the open position inspection cover does not fall out of the inspection frame.

Im Stand der Technik nach der EP 1 516 979 A1 ist die Fangvorrichtung als Fangband mit einer Schlaufe in Gestalt eines stoffumhüllten Gummibandes ausgebildet. Das Fangband bzw. die Fangvorrichtung ist zwischen beidseitigen Rastverschlüssen auf einer der Scharnierseite gegenüberliegenden Seite angeordnet. Das hat sich grundsätzlich bewährt, ist jedoch aus montagetechnischen Gründen verbesserungsfähig. Denn der Revisionsrahmen und der Revisionsdeckel werden üblicherweise aus Metallprofilen hergestellt, wohingegen das bekannte Fangband als Gummiband folglich aus einem anderen Material gefertigt ist. Außerdem erfordert die Anbringung des Fangbandes zusätzliche L-Winkel. Hieraus resultieren nicht unbeträchtliche Aufwendungen.In the prior art according to the EP 1 516 979 A1 the safety gear is designed as a tether with a loop in the form of a material-wrapped rubber band. The tether or the safety gear is arranged between two-sided snap fasteners on one side opposite the hinge side. This has proven itself in principle, but can be improved for assembly reasons. Because the inspection frame and the inspection cover are usually made of metal profiles, whereas the known tether as a rubber band is therefore made of a different material. In addition, the attachment of the tether requires additional L-angle. This results in not inconsiderable expenses.

Eine gattungsbildende Revisionsabdeckung ist durch die EP 1 233 130 A2 . bekannt geworden. Durch die DE 35 38 757 A1 ist eine Revisionsabdeckung bekannt geworden, bei welcher Rastverschlüsse in gleichmäßiger Verteilung über den Umfang von Revisionsrahmen und Revisionsdeckel vorgesehen sind. Dadurch soll eine einfache und funktionsgerechte Verriegelungsmechanik erreicht werden. Allerdings treiben die vielen realisierten Rastverschlüsse die Herstellungs- und Montagekosten in die Höhe.A generic revision cover is through the EP 1 233 130 A2 , known. By the DE 35 38 757 A1 a revision cover has become known, in which snap fasteners are provided in a uniform distribution over the circumference of the revision frame and inspection cover. This is to achieve a simple and functional locking mechanism. However, the many locking latches realized drive up manufacturing and assembly costs.

Der Erfindung liegt das technische Problem zugrunde, eine Revisionsabdeckung gemäß der EP 1 233 130 A2 weiterzuentwickeln.The invention is based on the technical problem of a revision cover according to the EP 1 233 130 A2 further.

Zur Lösung dieser technischen Problemstellung schlägt die Erfindung bei einer gattungsgemäßen Revisionsabdeckung vor, dass die Fangvorrichtung eine an den Revisionsdeckel angeschlossene Feder aufweist.To solve this technical problem, the invention proposes in a generic inspection cover that the safety gear has a connected to the inspection cover spring.

Meistens ist die Rastverschlusseinheit zweiteilig ausgestaltet und verfügt über wenigstens eine Andruckfeder und einen Druck(rast)verschluss. Dabei mögen die Andrückfeder und der Druckverschluss jeweils gemeinsam und im Wesentlichen an einen Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsrahmens angeschlossen sein, während die Fangvorrichtung überwiegend mit einem Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsdeckels verbunden ist. Die Relativierung "überwiegend" oder "im Wesentlichen" drückt aus, dass sowohl der Druckverschluss, als auch die Andrückfeder wie schließlich auch die Fangvorrichtung jeweils einen Spalt zwischen Revisionsdeckel und Revisionsrahmen überbrücken, um ihrer Funktion nachzukommen. D. h., einzelne Bestandteile des Druckverschlusses, der Andrückfeder und auch der Fangvorrichtung finden sich nicht nur am Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsrahmens sondern auch am Revisionsdeckel bzw. nicht nur am Revisionsverbinder des Revisionsdeckels sondern auch am Revisionsrahmen. Gleichwohl findet sich die Mehrzahl ihrer Bestandteile bzw. Bauteile eben am Revisionsrahmen bzw. am Revisionsdeckel.In most cases, the locking closure unit is designed in two parts and has at least one pressure spring and a pressure (latching) closure. In this case, the pressure spring and the pressure closure may each be connected together and essentially to a frame connector of the revision frame, while the safety gear is predominantly connected to a frame connector of the inspection cover. The relativization "predominantly" or "substantially" expresses that both the pressure seal, as well as the pressure spring as well as finally the safety gear each bridge a gap between the inspection cover and revision frame to comply with their function. D. h., Individual components of the snap closure, the pressure spring and the safety gear can be found not only on the frame connector of the revision frame but also on the inspection cover or not only on the inspection connector of the inspection cover but also on the inspection frame. Nevertheless, the majority of their components or components found just on the inspection frame or on the inspection cover.

Weiter hat es sich bewährt, wenn die Rastverschlusseinheit im Eckbereich der Revisionsabdeckung angeordnet ist. Dabei können beispielsweise der Druckverschluss und die Andrückfeder über Eck angeordnet sein. Daraus erklärt sich auch, dass der wenigstens eine Rahmenverbinder bzw. sowohl der Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsrahmens als auch der Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsdeckels jeweils als Eckverbinder ausgebildet sind.Furthermore, it has proven useful if the latching closure unit is arranged in the corner region of the inspection cover. In this case, for example, the pressure closure and the pressure spring can be arranged over the corner. This also explains that the at least one frame connector or both the frame connector of the revision frame and the frame connector of the inspection cover are each formed as corner connectors.

Meistens werden im Rahmen der Erfindung zwei Baueinheiten aus jeweils der Verschlusseinheit, der Fangvorrichtung und dem Rahmenverbinder realisiert, die gemeinsam auf einer einem Scharnier zwischen Revisionsdeckel und Revisionsrahmen gegenüberliegenden Seite der Revisionsabdeckung angeordnet sind. Das heißt, die Revisionsabdeckung verfügt an ihrer einen Seite über das bereits angesprochene Scharnier (Scharnierseite) und auf der anderen, gegenüberliegenden Seite über die bereits angesprochene Baueinheit bzw. die Baueinheiten aus jeweils der Rastverschlusseinheit, der Fangvorrichtung und dem Rahmenverbinder (Rastseite). Dabei kann an der Scharnierseite insgesamt mit Scharnierwinkeln gearbeitet werden, deren einer Scharnierschenkel am Revisionsdeckel befestigt ist, während ein anderer nach außen abgewinkelter Scharnierschenkel lose auf dem Revisionsrahmen aufliegt, wie dies die EP 1 516 979 A1 oder auch die DE 37 36 060 C1 zeigen. Das ist jedoch nicht zwingend.In the context of the invention, two assemblies are usually realized from the respective closure unit, the catching device and the frame connector, which are arranged together on a side of the inspection cover opposite a hinge between the inspection cover and the revision frame. That is, the revision cover has on its one side on the already mentioned hinge (hinge side) and on the other, opposite side on the already mentioned assembly or assemblies of each Rastverschlusseinheit, the safety gear and the frame connector (locking side). It can be worked on the hinge side in total with hinge angles, one hinge leg is attached to the inspection cover, while another outwardly angled hinge legs rests loosely on the inspection frame, as the EP 1 516 979 A1 or even the DE 37 36 060 C1 demonstrate. This is not mandatory.

Es hat sich bewährt, wenn die Fangvorrichtung endseitig an den zugehörigen Rahmenverbinder bzw. den an dieser Stelle vorteilhaft eingesetzten Eckverbinder angeschlossen ist. Dabei empfiehlt sich ein Anschluss der Fangvorrichtung an den Eckschenkel des Eckverbinders, gegenüber welchem auch der Druckverschluss in etwa mittig angeordnet ist, und zwar endseitig des fraglichen Eckschenkels. Dagegen korrespondiert die Andrückfeder zum anderen Eckschenkel. Tatsächlich ist die Fangvorrichtung in diesem Zusammenhang - wie bereits dargelegt - an den Rahmenverbinder bzw. Eckverbinder des Revisionsdeckels angeschlossen.It has proven useful if the safety gear end to the associated frame connector or the corner connector used advantageously is connected at this point. In this case, it is advisable to connect the safety gear to the corner leg of the corner connector, opposite which the pressure lock is arranged approximately centrally, namely end of the Eckschenkels in question. In contrast, the pressure spring corresponds to the other corner leg. In fact, the catching device in this context - as already stated - connected to the frame connector or corner connector of the inspection cover.

Erfindungsgemäß verfügt die Fangvorrichtung über eine mit dem Revisionsdeckel verbundene Feder. Außerdem ist bei der Fangvorrichtung ein Ausleger realisiert, welcher am Revisionsrahmen entlang gleitet und einen dortigen Anschlag hintergreift. Der Ausleger fällt meistens mit einem Fangfederschenkel der Feder der Fangvorrichtung zusammen. Neben diesen Fangfederschenkel weist die Feder noch einen Festfederschenkel auf. Im Unterschied zum Fangfederschenkel ist der Festfederschenkel nicht bewegbar gestaltet und vielmehr vorteilhaft einstückig mit dem Rahmenverbinder (des Revisionsdeckels) ausgebildet.According to the invention, the safety gear has a spring connected to the inspection cover. In addition, a boom is realized in the safety gear, which slides along the inspection frame and engages behind a stop there. The boom usually coincides with a catch spring leg of the spring of the safety gear. In addition to these catch spring legs, the spring still has a retaining spring leg. In contrast to the catch spring leg of the Festfederschenkel is not designed to be movable and rather advantageously integrally formed with the frame connector (the inspection cover).

Dagegen kann der Fangfederschenkel als Ausleger Federkräfte übertragen. Insgesamt ist die Auslegung so getroffen, dass der Fangfederschenkel bzw. Ausleger in Richtung auf dessen Anlage am Revisionsrahmen vorgespannt ist. Das gilt sowohl für den Fall, dass der Revisionsdeckel verriegelt im Revisionsrahmen gehalten wird als auch insbesondere dann, wenn sich der Revisionsdeckel in Offenstellung gegenüber dem Revisionsrahmen befindet und die Feder der Fangvorrichtung (noch mehr) vorgespannt wird.In contrast, the catch spring leg can transmit spring forces as a boom. Overall, the interpretation is such that the catch spring leg or boom is biased toward the system on the inspection frame. This applies both in the event that the inspection cover is held locked in the inspection frame and especially when the inspection cover is in the open position relative to the inspection frame and the spring of the safety gear (even more) is biased.

Hierdurch wird gewährleistet, dass der Ausleger bzw. Fangfederschenkel unter allen Umständen am Revisionsrahmen anliegt und an diesem beim Übergang des Revisionsdeckels von seiner verriegelten bzw. geschlossenen Stellung in die Offenstellung entlang gleitet. Dadurch ist sichergestellt, dass die Fangvorrichtung mit dem betreffenden Ausleger einen Anschlag am Revisionsrahmen hintergreift und auch sicher hintergreifen kann, so dass die Fangvorrichtung auf diese Weise ihrer orginären Wirkung nachkommt.This ensures that the boom or catch spring leg rests under all circumstances on the inspection frame and slides on this at the transition of the inspection cover from its locked or closed position in the open position along. This ensures that the safety gear with the boom concerned engages behind a stop on the inspection frame and can also safely engage behind, so that the safety gear complies with their orginären effect in this way.

Diese besteht letztendlich darin zu verhindern, dass der entriegelte Revisionsdeckel praktisch ungehindert um die Scharnierseite aus dem Revisionsrahmen ausschwenkt und möglicherweise eine Bedienperson verletzt oder schlimmstenfalls aus dem Revisionsrahmen heraus fällt. Jedenfalls wird ein solches Szenarium durch die Fangvorrichtung zuverlässig verhindert, die mit ihrem am Revisionsrahmen entlang gleitenden Fangfederschenkel respektive Ausleger nach Überstreichen eines bestimmten (geringen) Schwenkwinkels des Revisionsdeckels am Anschlag des Revisionsrahmens anschlägt bzw. den Anschlag hintergreift und auf diese Weise die weitere Bewegung des Revisionsdeckels gestoppt wird.This is ultimately to prevent the unlocked inspection cover swings virtually unhindered around the hinge side of the inspection frame and possibly injured an operator or at worst falls out of the inspection frame out. In any case, such a scenario is reliably prevented by the safety gear, which strikes with her on the inspection frame along catching spring leg respectively boom after sweeping over a certain (small) pivot angle of the inspection cover on the attack of the revision frame or engages behind the stop and in this way the further movement of the inspection cover is stopped.

Im Ergebnis wird eine Revisionsabdeckung zur Verfügung gestellt, bei welcher die Rastverschlusseinhalt, die Fangvorrichtung und der Rahmenverbinder eine Baueinheit bilden, also gemeinsam hergestellt und/oder montiert werden können. Insbesondere ist es im Gegensatz zum Stand der Technik nach der EP 1 516 979 A1 nicht (mehr) erforderlich, die Fangvorrichtung separat zu montieren und spezielle Halterungen vorzusehen. Vielmehr ist die Fangvorrichtung an den Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsdeckels angeschlossen. Grundsätzlich ist auch ein Anschluss der Fangvorrichtung an den Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsrahmens möglich und denkbar. Mit ihrem Fangfederschenkel als Ausleger sorgt die Fangvorrichtung zugleich für die notwendige Funktionssicherheit.As a result, a revision cover is provided, in which the Rastverschlusseinhalt, the safety gear and the frame connector form a structural unit, so can be manufactured and / or assembled together. In particular, it is in contrast to the prior art according to the EP 1 516 979 A1 not (anymore) required to mount the safety gear separately and to provide special brackets. Rather, the safety gear is connected to the frame connector of the inspection cover. In principle, a connection of the safety gear to the frame connector of the revision frame is possible and conceivable. With its catch spring leg as a boom, the safety gear at the same time provides the necessary reliability.

Denn der fragliche Ausleger respektive Fangfederschenkel reicht von der an den Revisionsdeckel angeschlossenen Feder der Fangvorrichtung bis hin zum Revisionsrahmen und gleitet an diesem entlang, sobald der Revisionsdeckel seine Verriegelungsstellung gegenüber dem Revisionsrahmen verlässt.Because of the questionable boom respectively catch spring legs ranging from the connected to the inspection cover spring of the safety gear up to the revision frame and slides along this, as soon as the inspection cover leaves its locking position relative to the inspection frame.

Die vorerwähnte Gleitbewegung wird nach Überstreichen eines gewissen (geringen) Schwenkwinkels des Revisionsdeckels gegenüber dem Revisionsrahmen gestoppt, und zwar durch einen am Revisionsrahmen angebrachten Anschlag. Dieser Anschlag findet sich seinerseits am Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsrahmens. Folgerichtung setzt sich die Fangvorrichtung aus jeweils zusammenwirkenden Elementen zusammen, die einerseits an den Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsdeckels und andererseits an den Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsrahmens angeschlossen sind. Das Gleiche gilt für die Rastverschlusseinheit. Auch in diesem Fall sind die Elemente der Rastverschlusseinheit, d. h. der Druckverschluss und die Andrückfeder, an einerseits den Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsrahmens und andererseits den Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsdeckels angeschlossen, allerdings überwiegend an den Revisionsrahmen.The aforementioned sliding movement is stopped after passing over a certain (small) pivoting angle of the inspection cover relative to the inspection frame, by a mounted on the inspection frame stop. This attack is in turn at the frame connector of the revision frame. Following direction, the safety gear is composed of respective cooperating elements, which are connected on the one hand to the frame connector of the inspection cover and on the other hand to the frame connector of the revision frame. The same applies to the locking closure unit. Also in this case, the elements of the locking closure unit, d. H. the pressure lock and the pressure spring, connected on the one hand to the frame connector of the revision frame and on the other hand, the frame connector of the inspection cover, but mainly to the inspection frame.

So geht die Andrückfeder im Wesentlichen eine Verbindung mit dem Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsrahmens ein, was ebenso für den Druckverschluss gilt. Auf diese Weise wird automatisch die beschriebene Baueinheit aus der Rastverschlusseinheit, der Fangvorrichtung und dem Rahmenverbinder bzw. aus dem Zusammenspiel mit einerseits dem Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsrahmens und andererseits dem Rahmenverbinder des Revisionsdeckels gebildet.Thus, the pressure spring essentially enters into a connection with the frame connector of the revision frame, which also applies to the pressure closure. In this way, the described assembly of the latching closure unit, the safety gear and the frame connector or from the interaction with on the one hand the frame connector of the revision frame and on the other hand, the frame connector of the inspection cover is automatically formed.

Im Folgenden wird die Erfindung anhand einer lediglich ein Ausführungsbeispiel darstellenden Zeichnung näher erläutert; es zeigen:

In the following the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to a drawing showing only one exemplary embodiment; show it:

In den Figuren ist eine Revisionsabdeckung dargestellt, die sich in ihrem grundsätzlichen Aufbau aus einem Revisionsrahmen 1 und einem in den Revisionsrahmen 1 einsetzbaren Revisionsdeckel 2 zusammensetzt. Der Revisionsrahmen 1 mag in eine Decke 3 eingebaut sein. Er setzt sich aus einzelnen Rahmenprofilen 5 aus beispielsweise Stahlblech zusammen, die in ihren Eckbereichen durch Rahmeneckverbinder 6 miteinander verbunden sind.In the figures, a revision cover is shown, which is composed in its basic structure of a revision frame 1 and an insertable into the inspection frame 1 inspection cover 2. The inspection frame 1 may be installed in a ceiling 3. It is composed of individual frame profiles 5, for example, made of sheet steel, which are interconnected in their corner areas by Rahmeneckverbinder 6.

Vergleichbar ist der Revisionsdeckel 2 aufgebaut, welcher aus Deckelprofilen 7 hergestellt ist, die mit Hilfe von Deckeleckverbindern 8 miteinander verbunden werden. Das Innere des Revisionsdeckels 2 kann von einer Dämmplatte 9 ausgefüllt sein.Similarly, the inspection cover 2 is constructed, which is made of cover profiles 7, which are connected to each other by means of Deckeleckverbindern 8. The interior of the inspection cover 2 may be filled by an insulation board 9.

Darüber hinaus erkennt man eine Verschlusseinheit 10, 11, die vorliegend als Rastverschlusseinheit 10, 11 ausgebildet ist. Mit Hilfe der Rastverschlusseinheit 10, 11 lässt sich der in den Revisionsrahmen 1 eingesetzte Revisionsdeckel 2 gegenüber dem Revisionsrahmen 1 lösbar verriegeln. Zu diesem Zweck ist die Rastverschlusseinheit 10, 11 zweiteilig ausgestaltet und verfügt über eine Andrückfeder 11 und einen Druckverschluss 10. Beim Einsetzen des Revisionsdeckels 2 in den Revisionsrahmen 1 muss die Kraft der Andrückfeder 11 überwunden werden, bis eine Rastfeder 10b des Druckverschlusses 10 in Rasteinschnürungen 12 einer Haltelasche 13 eingreift, die in Flg. 3 dargestellt ist Hier ist durchgezogen der geöffnete Zustand des Revisionsdeckels 2 gezeigt, wohingegen strichpunktiert die geschlossene Stellung dargestellt ist.In addition, one recognizes a closure unit 10, 11, which in the present case is designed as a locking closure unit 10, 11. With the aid of the latching closure unit 10, 11, the inspection cover 2 inserted into the inspection frame 1 can be releasably locked relative to the inspection frame 1. When inserting the inspection cover 2 in the inspection frame 1, the force of the pressure spring 11 must be overcome until a detent spring 10b of the pressure lock 10 in Rasteinschnürungen 12th a retaining tab 13 engages in Flg. Here, the opened state of the inspection cover 2 is shown in solid lines, whereas the dot-dashed position is shown.

Um den Revisionsdeckel 2 aus dem Revisionsrahmen 1 zu entfernen, ist es lediglich erforderlich, die Rastfeder 10b durch Aufweiten aus den Rasteinschnürungen 12 der Haltelasche 13 zu entfernen, so dass der Revisionsdeckel 2 freikommt. Ohne eine zusätzlich vorgesehene Fangvorrichtung 14 würde der Revisionsdeckel 2 ungehindert um ein Scharnier 15 verschwenken, welches lediglich in der Fig. 2 angedeutet ist und so aufgebaut sein mag, wie dies die EP 1 516 979 A1 beschreibt.To remove the inspection cover 2 from the inspection frame 1, it is only necessary to remove the detent spring 10b by widening from the Rasteinschnürungen 12 of the retaining tab 13 so that the inspection cover 2 is released. Without an additionally provided catching device 14, the inspection cover 2 would pivot freely about a hinge 15, which only in the Fig. 2 is hinted at and may be constructed as the EP 1 516 979 A1 describes.

Tatsächlich sorgt die Fangvorrichtung 14 für den Revisionsdeckel 2 jedoch dafür, dass der Revisionsdeckel 2 nur einen relativ geringen Schwenkwinkel überstreicht, der in der Fig. 2 angedeutet ist. Zu diesem Zweck setzt sich die Fangvorrichtung 14 im Detail aus einem Festfederschenkel 14a, einer Feder 14b und schließlich einem Fangfederschenkel 14c zusammen, welcher zugleich die Funktion eines Auslegers 14c der Fangvorrichtung 14 übernimmt. Der Festfederschenkel 14a der Fangvorrichtung 14 ist an den Rahmenverbinder 8 angeschlossen, bei dem es sich im Rahmen des Ausführungsbeispiels um den Deckeleckverbinder 8 handelt. An den einstückig mit dem besagten Rahmenverbinder 8 ausgebildeten Festfederschenkel 14a ist die Feder 14b der Fangvorrichtung 14 angeschlossen, die ihrerseits einstückig mit dem Fangfederschenkel 14c bzw. dem Ausleger 14c ausgebildet ist.In fact, the catch device 14 for the inspection cover 2, however, ensures that the inspection cover 2 covers only a relatively small swivel angle, which in the Fig. 2 is indicated. For this purpose, the safety gear 14 is composed in detail of a fixed spring leg 14a, a spring 14b and finally a catch spring leg 14c, which at the same time assumes the function of a boom 14c of the safety gear 14. The retaining spring leg 14a of the safety gear 14 is connected to the frame connector 8, which in the context of the exemplary embodiment is the cover corner connector 8. The spring 14b of the safety gear 14, which in turn is formed integrally with the catch spring leg 14c or the boom 14c, is connected to the retaining spring leg 14a formed integrally with said frame connector 8.

Man erkennt, dass die Fangvorrichtung 14 endseitig an den besagten Rahmenverbinder bzw. den Deckeleckverbinder 8 angeschlossen ist, und zwar in unmittelbarer Nachbarschaft zur Haltelasche 13 des Druckverschlusses 10. Beim Öffnen des Revisionsdeckels 2 gleitet der Fangfederschenkel 14c bzw. Ausleger 14c am Revisionsrahmen 1 respektive am Deckeleckverbinder 6 entlang. Das geschieht beim Öffnen des Revisionsdekkels 2 solange, bis der Fangfederschenkel 14c einen dortigen Anschlag 16 hintergreift. Der vorerwähnte Anschlag 16 ist am Revisionsrahmen 1 angeordnet und steht senkrecht auf diesem auf. Im Ausführungsbeispiel ist der Anschlag 16 einstückig mit dem Deckeleckverbinder 6 ausgebildet.It can be seen that the safety gear 14 is connected at the end to said frame connector or the cover corner connector 8, in the immediate vicinity of the retaining tab 13 of the pressure closure 10. When opening the inspection cover 2, the catch spring leg 14c or arm 14c slides on the inspection frame 1 respectively on Cover connector 6 along. This happens when you open the Revisionsdekkels 2 until the catch spring leg 14c a local stop 16 engages behind. The abovementioned stop 16 is arranged on the inspection frame 1 and is perpendicular to this. In the exemplary embodiment, the stop 16 is formed integrally with the cover corner connector 6.

Da der Fangfederschenkel 14c bzw. Ausleger 14c mit Hilfe der Feder 14b in Richtung auf eine Anlage an dem Rahmeneckverbinder 6 bzw. dem Rahmenverbinder 6 mit Hilfe der Feder 14b vorgespannt ist, gilt dies erst recht, wenn der Revisionsdeckel 2 entsprechend der Darstellung in Fig. 2 geöffnet wird. Denn bei diesem Vorgang wird die Vorspannung der Feder 14 noch weiter erhöht. Dadurch wird sichergestellt, dass der U-förmig ausgebildete Fangfederschenkel 14c bzw. Ausleger 14c in jedem Fall gegen den Anschlag 16 nach Überstreichen eines bestimmten Schwenkwinkels des Revisionsdeckels 2 gegenüber dem Revisionsrahmen 1 fährt und eine weitere Öffnungsbewegung des Revisionsdeckels 2 unterbindet.Since the catch spring leg 14c or arm 14c is biased by means of the spring 14b in the direction of engagement with the frame corner connector 6 and the frame connector 6 by means of the spring 14b, this applies even more if the inspection cover 2 as shown in FIG Fig. 2 is opened. Because in this process, the bias of the spring 14 is further increased. This ensures that the U-shaped Fangfederschenkel 14c or boom 14c moves in each case against the stop 16 after sweeping over a certain pivot angle of the inspection cover 2 against the inspection frame 1 and prevents further opening movement of the inspection cover 2.

Die im Rahmen des Ausführungsbeispiels aus der Andrückfeder 11 und dem Druckverschluss 10 aufgebaute Rastverschlusseinheit 10, 11 ist ausweislich der Fig. 1a, 1b im Eckbereich der Revisionsabdeckung angeordnet. Dazu sind im Detail der Druckverschluss 10 und die Andrückfeder 11 über Eck platziert. Sowohl die Andrückfeder 11 als auch der Druckverschluss 10 sind im Wesentlichen an den Rahmeneckverbinder 6 angeschlossen. Dagegen ist die Fangvorrichtung 14 überwiegend mit dem Deckeleckverbinder 8 verbunden.The built in the embodiment of the pressure spring 11 and the pressure lock 10 locking closure unit 10, 11 is shown in the Fig. 1a . 1b arranged in the corner of the inspection cover. For this purpose, the pressure closure 10 and the pressure spring 11 are placed in corners over the corner in detail. Both the pressure spring 11 and the pressure lock 10 are essentially connected to the frame corner connector 6. In contrast, the safety gear 14 is mainly connected to the cover corner connector 8.

Im Ausführungsbeispiel sind zwei Baueinheiten aus jeweils der Rastverschlusseinheit 10, 11, der Fangvorrichtung 14 und dem zugehörigen Rahmenverbinder 6, 8 realisiert, und zwar auf einer dem Scharnier 15 zwischen Revisionsdeckel 2 und Revisionsrahmen 1 gegenüberliegenden Seite, der Rastseite. Dagegen definiert das Scharnier 15 die Scharnierseite der Revisionsabdekkung.In the exemplary embodiment, two units from each of the locking closure unit 10, 11, the safety gear 14 and the associated frame connector 6, 8 realized, on a hinge 15 between the inspection cover 2 and revision frame 1 opposite side, the locking side. In contrast, the hinge 15 defines the hinge side of the revision cover.

Im Detail wird die Baueinheit (10, 11; 14; 6, 8) so realisiert, dass die Andrückfeder 11 mit Halteblechen 11a ausgerüstet ist, die zur Fixierung einer größtenteils U-förmigen Feder 11b der Andrückfeder 11 dienen. Während die Haltebleche 11a einstückig mit dem Deckeleckverbinder 6 bzw. allgemein dem Rahmenverbinder 6 ausgebildet sind, handelt es sich bei der Feder 11b um ein separates Bauteil, welches jedoch unschwer an den Haltelaschen 11a vormontiert werden kann. Vergleichbares gilt für den Druckverschluss 10. Dessen U-förmige Verschlussfeder 10b wird wiederum mit Hilfe eines weiteren oder mehrerer weiterer Haltebleche 10a positioniert, die an den Deckeleckverbinder 6 angeformt sind bzw. einstückig mit diesem ausgebildet sind. Auch die Verschlussfeder 10b lässt sich als separates Bauteil unschwer mit Hilfe der Haltebleche 10a vormontieren.In detail, the structural unit (10, 11; 14; 6, 8) is realized in such a way that the pressure spring 11 is equipped with retaining plates 11a which serve to fix a largely U-shaped spring 11b of the pressure spring 11. While the retaining plates 11a are formed integrally with the cover corner connector 6 or generally the frame connector 6, the spring 11b is a separate component which, however, can be easily preassembled on the retaining tabs 11a. The same applies to the pressure closure 10. Its U-shaped closure spring 10b is in turn with the help of another or a plurality of further retaining plates 10a are positioned, which are integrally formed with the cover corner connector 6 or integrally formed therewith. Also, the closure spring 10b can be easily preassembled as a separate component with the help of the holding plates 10a.

Da die Haltebleche 10a des Druckverschlusses 10 zur Halterung der separaten Verschlussfeder 10b ebenso wie die Haltebleche 11a für die Feder 11b der Andrückfeder 11 jeweils einstückig mit dem Deckeleckverbinder 6 ausgeführt sind, trägt dieser Rahmenverbinder 6 überwiegend den Druckverschluss 10 und die Andrückfeder 11.Since the retaining plates 10a of the pressure closure 10 for holding the separate closure spring 10b as well as the retaining plates 11a for the spring 11b of the pressure spring 11 are each formed integrally with the Deckeleckverbinder 6, this frame connector 6 carries mainly the pressure seal 10 and the pressure spring eleventh

Zu dem Druckverschluss 10 gehört noch die Haltelasche 13 mit den Rasteinschnürungen 12 für die Ü-förmige Verschlussfeder 10b. Die vorerwähnte Haltelasche 13 ist an den Deckeleckverbinder 8 bzw. allgemein an den Rahmenverbinder 8 des Revisionsdeckels 2 angeformt, im Ausführungsbeispiel einstückig mit diesem ausgebildet. Dadurch formen die Haltelaschen 11a für die Andrückfeder 11 sowie die Haltelaschen 10a für den Druckverschluss 10 jeweils ein einstückiges Bauteil mit dem Deckeleckverbinder 6, wobei an dieser Stelle lediglich noch die zugehörigen Federn, einerseits die Feder 11b der Andrückfeder 11 und andererseits die Verschlussfeder 10b des Druckverschlusses 10 im Rahmen eines Vormontageschrittes mit den Haltelaschen 10a, 11a verbunden werden müssen. Für die Fangvorrichtung 14 gilt, dass deren Festfederschenkel 14a einstückig mit dem Deckeleckverbinder 8 ausgebildet ist und an diesem die U-förmige Fangfeder 14c anzubringen ist. Jedenfalls wird hierdurch insgesamt eine Baueinheit 10, 11; 14; 6, 8 aus der Rastverschlusseinheit 10, 11, der Fangvorrichtung 14 und dem jeweiligen Rahmenverbinder 6, 8 zur Verfügung gestellt, welche die Montage und auch die Herstellungskosten gegenüber bisherigen Ausführungsformen deutlich reduziert. Dabei umfasst die Baueinheit im Ausführungsbeispiel sowohl den Deckeleckverbinder 8 als auch den Rahmeneckerbinder 6. Es ist selbstverständlich auch denkbar, dass nur ein Rahmeneckverbinder 6, 8 involviert ist.To the pressure closure 10 still belongs the retaining tab 13 with the Rasteinschnürungen 12 for the Ü-shaped closure spring 10b. The aforementioned retaining tab 13 is integrally formed on the cover corner connector 8 or generally on the frame connector 8 of the inspection cover 2, in the exemplary embodiment formed integrally therewith. As a result, the retaining tabs 11a for the pressure spring 11 and the retaining tabs 10a for the pressure closure 10 each form a one-piece component with the cover corner connector 6, wherein at this point only the associated springs, on the one hand the spring 11b of the pressure spring 11 and on the other hand, the closure spring 10b of the pressure lock 10 must be connected in the context of a pre-assembly step with the retaining tabs 10 a, 11 a. Applies to the safety gear 14 that their Festfederschenkel 14a is formed integrally with the Deckeleckverbinder 8 and at this the U-shaped catch spring 14c is to be attached. In any case, this is a total of a structural unit 10, 11; 14; 6, 8 of the locking closure unit 10, 11, the safety gear 14 and the respective frame connector 6, 8 provided, which significantly reduces the assembly and also the manufacturing cost over previous embodiments. In the embodiment, the assembly comprises both the cover corner connector 8 and the frame connector 6. It is of course also conceivable that only a frame corner connector 6, 8 is involved.

Im Unterschied zu der Ausführungsform nach der Fig. 1a ist diejenige der Fig. 1b dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass sich die Fangvorrichtung 14 bei der letztgenannten Variante in der Fig. 1b werkzeuglos an dem Festfederschenkel 14a montieren lässt. Dadurch wird eine besonders schnelle und kostengünstige Fertigung ermöglicht. In contrast to the embodiment of the Fig. 1a is the one who Fig. 1b characterized in that the safety gear 14 in the latter variant in the Fig. 1b tool-less can be mounted on the fixed spring leg 14a. This allows a particularly fast and cost-effective production.
