- the column is constructed so that it still has a separate channel next to the cable channel, which is preferably closed circumferentially. This ensures a high stability for the column, since a two-chamber system formed in this way comprises a closed chamber and a further chamber serving for cabling, into which the cables can be inserted via the mentioned slot-shaped recess, the cable receiving space passing through a twisting movement of the rotation cover can be closed.
- the rotation cover surrounds the wall of the column, that is not arranged in the interior of the column but outside it.
- FIG. 1 is shown schematically a column 1, as they are especially for furniture and especially for table legs can be used. It can be vertical, ie vertical or at least with a vertical component.
- column 1 may for example consist of a continuous casting.
- the column 1 has a housing or an outer wall 3, which is formed in the embodiment shown not a circular cross-section, but from a more oval-shaped cross section with two opposite semicircular column sections 3 'and two offset by 90 ° flat wall sections 3 ".
- a setting slide 7 can be used, which can be provided with a height adjustment allowing adjusting screw 7 '. But other deviating constructions are possible here. If necessary, even such a termination member can be completely dispensed with.
- the column 1 is divided into two parts, ie divided into two parts.
- the column in the column interior 11 comprises a transverse wall 13, whereby a first chamber 15a and a second chamber 15b is formed.
- the second chamber 15b is thus completely closed in the embodiment shown by the outer portion of the wall 3 and the transverse wall 13 in the circumferential direction, whereby a closed hollow channel 17 is formed.
- the first chamber 15a is centered in the semicircular wall section 3 '.
- This recess 19 communicating with the chamber 15a can be exactly parallel to the longitudinal axis 20 (FIG. FIG. 1 ) of the column 1, however, can also be introduced or formed at an angle with an additionally circulating component (for example slightly helical), at least in the region of this slotted chamber 15a.
- the thus formed chamber 15a thus simultaneously represents a cable receiving channel 115a.
- a rotation cover 23 is used, which is also referred to below as a rotary channel 123.
- FIG. 1 is shown in perspective view of the rotary channel 123 in its external position before, as shown by arrow 124 in FIG. 1 is inserted in the axial direction of the open end of the column ago in the first cable channel 115a.
- this rotation cover 23 or this rotary channel 123 is designed partially circular in cross-section, that is provided with a part-circular outer surface 23 'in cross-section. In other words, therefore, the rotary channel 123 is provided with a cylindrical outer surface or a cylindrical jacket 23 '.
- the outer diameter of this rotary channel 123 is adapted to the inner diameter of the part-circular column section 3 'with or without play.
- this rotary channel 123 also has a longitudinal direction of the rotary channel, so preferably parallel to its axis of rotation 27, also preferably slot-shaped recess 29 whose width in the direction of rotation 129, that is perpendicular to the rotational movement in approximately the width of the recess 19 in the wall 3 of the column 1 corresponds, but does not have to correspond.
- the gripping portion 31 runs on the opposite boundary edge 37 "and thereby closes the feed slot 19 in the column 1.
- a slight portion of the circular or semicircular section 23" may be formed on the tubular rotary channel the opposite boundary edge 37 "engages behind in the closed position of the rotary channel.
- the closed cable channel 123 can be detected by gripping the over the outer wall 33 of the column 1 cross handle portion 31 and in the reverse rotational direction 129, that is moved in the open position, to the gripping portion and the handle bar 31 at the opposite boundary edge 37 'runs ( Figure 3).
- the axis of rotation 27 for the rotary channel 123 is the coaxial central axis, which is offset from the material of the tubular or hollow cylindrical rotary channel, so that the tubular or hollow cylindrical material preferably only a rotational movement in itself about the axis of rotation 27 performs (which is formed in the embodiment shown centrally in the first chamber 15a extending inside the column), whereby the shell of the tubular or hollow cylindrical rotating member performs only on an orbit a rotational movement about the rotation axis 27.
- any cables for example power cable, telephone cable, modem cable, data cable or cable for the networking of a computer, printer cable, etc.
- any cables can easily be inserted into the cable channel, wherein in the embodiment shown by the more than 180 °, for example more than 270 ', more than 315 ° or more than 330 ° circumferentially closed rotation cover 23 serves as a rotatable cable channel 123a itself, which is rotatably held in the corresponding first chamber 15a, so the so-called cable receiving channel 115a of the column 1.
- the rotary member has a part-cylindrical shape, in cross-section so a part-circular shape, which is at least so large in the circumferential direction that the gap-shaped opening 19 in the longitudinal direction of the column 1 can be closed. Therefore, the rotational part in the circumferential direction should cover at least an angular range of more than 30 °, in particular more than 45 °, 90 ° or 180 °. Preferably, a wall in a circumferential angle range of 270 ° and more is possible, whereby a particularly simple mounting of the rotary member in the corresponding interior of the column 1 can be ensured.
- the cross-section of the first chamber 15a is half-cylindrical in shape and the remainder is rather angularly shaped, wherein in the embodiment shown on the side opposite to the slot side of the transverse wall 13 has a part-circular cross-section recess 113 or a part-circular deduction 113 is.
- 15b cables could also be laid through the closed further chamber. But this would be more cumbersome, since here the cables "threaded” from bottom to top and would have to be pushed through, so could not be wired from the side.
- the rotation cover 23 that is, the rotary channel 123 on its outer peripheral surface 23 'at least partially with a preferred in his Provided longitudinally extending corrugation 223, which is in their collection or training a plurality of adjacent lying in cross-section wave-shaped resulting rib-shaped elevations so that the smallest possible clearance between the rotary channel 123 and the corresponding inner walls of the cable receiving channel 115a is present.
- the corrugation can extend so far that a stop limit in the open position according to FIG.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 in cross-sectional view also shown that in the context of the closed channel 15b preferably at the intermediate wall 13 still anchoring projections 71 and 71 'are formed in which thus formed receiving space from below or above screws can be screwed to secure other connecting parts to this column ,
- FIG. 4 In the embodiment according to FIG. 4 is a cross-sectionally hollow cylindrical column 1 is shown. Otherwise, this embodiment corresponds to that after FIGS. 2 and 3 , Finally, based on FIG. 5 shown that the longitudinally slotted column 1 is itself designed circular or partially circular, at least with respect to its outer surface 33. In this case, the rotation cover 23 is also designed part-circular, but does not sit inside the chamber 15a of the column 1, but takes the column. 1 quasi encompassing. In this case, can be dispensed with a handle bar 31 on the outside even.
- the column 1 encompassing the rotary channel 123 can be easily grasped and rotated in the circumferential direction until the slot-shaped recess 29 is more or less congruent or at least partially overlapping to the slot-shaped recess 19 in the wall 3 of the column 1 to lie to make the wiring ,
- the width of the slot-shaped recess 19 (ie transverse to the longitudinal axis 20 of the column 1 and transverse to the axis of rotation 27 of the rotary channel) should at least approximately correspond to the width of the slot-shaped recess 29 in the rotary member 23, so that at overlapping orientation in the open position of the column the maximum opening width is available.
- the width of the slot-shaped recess 19 ie transverse to the longitudinal axis 20 of the column 1 and transverse to the axis of rotation 27 of the rotary channel
- the opening width 29 'of the rotating member must also be dimensioned much larger, since it only has to be ensured that the rotating member can be guided and held and pivoted between a closing and an open position, wherein in the closed position only a portion of the outer shell 33 of the rotary member is visible through the slot-shaped recess 19 in the wall 3 of the column 1.
- the slot-shaped or gap-shaped opening width 29 is at least slightly narrower than the maximum diameter of the column 1. This ensures that the rotation part of the column at least more than 180 ° engages and is thus kept almost clipped on the column and can be twisted around the column.
- the width of the slot-shaped recess 29 is at least approximately adapted to the width of the slot-shaped recess 19 in the wall 3 of the column 1 in the circumferential direction.
- the rotary member 23 has a partially cylindrical inner surface 123 'in order to encompass the outer surface 33 of the column 1 as fully as possible.

Möbel, insbesondere Tische sind in der Regel mit drei oder vier Beinen versehen. Im Falle von Tischen sind auch Konstruktionen bekannt, bei denen Tische ein einziges zentrales Bein aufweisen, worüber die Tischplatte gehalten ist. Es kann sich dabei gegebenenfalls auch um höhenverstellbare Tische handeln.Furniture, especially tables are usually provided with three or four legs. In the case of tables, constructions are also known in which tables have a single central leg over which the table top is held. If necessary, these can also be height-adjustable tables.

Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es demgegenüber, eine nochmals verbesserte Säule für Möbel, insbesondere für Tischbeine zu schaffen, die eine Verkabelungsmöglichkeit in der Säule umfasst, wobei bei einer insgesamt ästhetisch ansprechenden Lösung eine leichte Verkabelung ermöglicht werden soll.Object of the present invention is in contrast to provide a further improved pillar for furniture, especially for table legs, which includes a possibility of wiring in the column, with a total of aesthetically pleasing solution lightweight wiring should be possible.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß entsprechend den im Anspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmalen gelöst. Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen angegeben.The object is achieved according to the features specified in
Die vorliegende Erfindung schafft mit einfachen Mitteln einen neuen Weg, um eine ästhetisch ansprechende säulenartige Tragkonstruktion zu schaffen, die mit einem integrierten Kabelkanal versehen ist, der eine einfache Verkabelungsmöglichkeit eröffnet.The present invention provides, by simple means, a new way to provide an aesthetically pleasing columnar support structure provided with an integral cable channel which provides easy cabling capability.
Im Gegensatz zum Stand der Technik wird dabei die für die Verkabelung vorgesehene längs der Säule verlaufende Wandungsausnehmung, insbesondere in Form einer schlitzförmigen Ausnehmung, nicht durch einen einsetzbaren oder insbesondere einclipsbaren Deckel verschlossen, auch nicht durch einen um ein Scharnier gegenüber der Wandung zur schnellen Öffnung einer Schließstellung verschwenkbaren klappenförmigen Deckel, sondern durch eine Rotationsabdeckung. Diese Rotationsabdeckung ermöglicht eine Rotationsbewegung um eine Zentralachse zum Öffnen und Schließen der Kabeleinführöffnung.In contrast to the prior art, the provided for the wiring along the column extending Wandungsausnehmung, especially in the form of a slot-shaped recess, not closed by an insertable or in particular clipped lid, not even by a hinge against the wall for rapid opening of a Closed position pivotable flap-shaped lid, but by a rotation cover. This rotation cover allows rotational movement about a central axis for opening and closing the cable insertion opening.
Erfindungsgemäß ist dazu ferner die Rotationsabdeckung nach Art eines rohrförmigen Drehkanals gebildet, der ebenfalls wieder mit einer Ausnehmung versehen ist, die in Längsrichtung des so gebildeten Rotationselementes verläuft, also in Umfangsrichtung quer zur Rotationsachse eine entsprechende (schlitzförmige) Ausnehmung aufweist. Dieses Rotationselement als Abdeckung ist dabei so gebildet, dass es bevorzugt anschlagsbegrenzt zwischen einer Öffnungsstellung, in der sich die Aufnahmeöffnung in der Wandung der Säule zumindest weitgehend mit einer entsprechenden Ausnehmung in der Rotationsabdeckung überdeckt, und einer Verschlussstellung verdrehbar ist, in der das Rotationselement, d.h. die Rotationsabdeckung soweit in sich verdreht ist, dass die in Längsrichtung der Säule verlaufende, bevorzugt schlitzförmige Ausnehmung durch einen Wandungsabschnitt des Drehkanals verschlossen ist.According to the invention, the rotation cover is further formed in the manner of a tubular rotary channel, which is also provided again with a recess which in Longitudinal direction of the rotary element thus formed extends, ie in the circumferential direction transverse to the axis of rotation has a corresponding (slot-shaped) recess. This rotation element as a cover is formed so that it is preferably stop limited between an open position in which the receiving opening in the wall of the column at least largely covered with a corresponding recess in the rotation cover, and a closure position is rotatable in which the rotation element, ie the rotation cover is twisted so far in itself, that in the longitudinal direction of the column extending, preferably slot-shaped recess is closed by a wall portion of the rotary channel.
In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführungsform ist dabei die Rotationsabdeckung im Inneren der Säule untergebracht, die zumindest einen Aufnahmeraum aufweist oder umfasst, der im Querschnitt quer zur Rotationsachse der Rotationsabdeckung ganz oder teilweise zylinderförmig gestaltet ist, also eine ganz oder teilweise zylinderförmige Rotationsabdeckung aufnehmen und verdrehbar halten und lagern kann.In a particularly preferred embodiment, the rotation cover is accommodated in the interior of the column, which comprises or comprises at least one receiving space, which is designed in cross-section transverse to the axis of rotation of the rotation cover completely or partially cylindrical, so record a wholly or partially cylindrical rotary cover and hold rotatable and can store.
In einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist die Säule so aufgebaut, dass sie neben dem Kabelkanal noch einen separaten Kanal aufweist, der vorzugsweise umlaufend geschlossen ist. Dadurch wird eine hohe Stabilität für die Säule gewährleistet, da ein so gebildetes Zwei-Kammer-System eine geschlossene Kammer und eine zur Verkabelung dienende weitere Kammer umfasst, in welche die Kabel über die erwähnte schlitzförmige Ausnehmung eingeführt werden können, wobei der Kabel-Aufnahmeraum durch eine Verdrehbewegung der Rotationsabdeckung verschlossen werden kann.In one embodiment of the invention, the column is constructed so that it still has a separate channel next to the cable channel, which is preferably closed circumferentially. This ensures a high stability for the column, since a two-chamber system formed in this way comprises a closed chamber and a further chamber serving for cabling, into which the cables can be inserted via the mentioned slot-shaped recess, the cable receiving space passing through a twisting movement of the rotation cover can be closed.
Insbesondere dann, wenn die Säule selbst hohlzylinderförmig gestaltet ist, ist es auch möglich, dass die Rotationsabdeckung die Wandung der Säule umgreift, also nicht im Inneren der Säule sondern außenliegend dazu angeordnet ist.In particular, when the column itself is designed as a hollow cylinder, it is also possible that the rotation cover surrounds the wall of the column, that is not arranged in the interior of the column but outside it.

Die zweite Kammer 15b ist im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel also durch den äußeren Abschnitt der Wandung 3 sowie die Querwandung 13 in Umfangsrichtung vollständig geschlossen, wodurch ein geschlossener Hohlkanal 17 gebildet ist.The second chamber 15b is thus completely closed in the embodiment shown by the outer portion of the
Die erste Kammer 15a weist im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel mittig in dem halbkreisförmigen Wandungsabschnitt 3' eine längs der Säule 1 verlaufende Ausnehmung 19 auf, die nachfolgend teilweise auch als schlitz- oder spaltförmige Ausnehmung 19 bezeichnet wird. Diese mit der Kammer 15a in Verbindung stehende Ausnehmung 19 kann exakt parallel zur Längsachse 20 (
Im Inneren dieses Kabelkanals 115a ist eine Rotationsabdeckung 23 eingesetzt, die nachfolgend teilweise auch als Drehkanal 123 bezeichnet wird. In

Wie aus der Querschnittsdarstellung gemäß
Umgekehrt kann der geschlossene Kabelkanal 123 durch Ergreifen des über die Außenwandung 33 der Säule 1 übergreifenden Griffabschnittes 31 erfasst und in umgekehrter Rotationsrichtung 129, also in Öffnungsstellung bewegt werden, bis der Greifabschnitt und die Griffleiste 31 an der gegenüberliegenden Begrenzungskante 37' aufläuft (Figur 3).Conversely, the closed cable channel 123 can be detected by gripping the over the
Aus dem erläuterten Ausführungsbeispiel ergibt sich auch, dass die Rotationsachse 27 für den Drehkanal 123 die koaxiale Zentralachse darstellt, die versetzt zum Material des rohr- oder hohlzylinderförmigen Drehkanals liegt, so dass das rohr- oder hohlzylinderförmige Material bevorzugt lediglich eine Verdrehbewegung in sich um die Rotationsachse 27 durchführt (die im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel zentral in der ersten Kammer 15a im Inneren der Säule verlaufend gebildet ist), wodurch der Mantel des rohr- oder hohlzylinderförmigen Rotationselements lediglich auf einer Umlaufbahn eine Verdrehbewegung um die Rotationsachse 27 durchführt.From the illustrated embodiment also shows that the axis of
In geöffneter Stellung können problemlos beliebige Kabel (beispielsweise Stromkabel, Telefonkabel, Modemkabel, Datenkabel oder Kabel für die Vernetzung eines Computers, Druckerkabel, etc.) in den Kabelkanal eingeführt werden, wobei im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel durch die mehr als 180°, beispielsweise mehr als 270', mehr als 315° oder mehr als 330° umlaufend geschlossene Rotationsabdeckung 23 als drehbarer Kabelkanal 123a selbst dient, der in der entsprechenden ersten Kammer 15a, also dem sogenannten Kabelaufnahmekanal 115a der Säule 1 drehbar gehalten ist. Vorzugsweise besteht zwischen dem Drehkanal 123 und der Innenwandung der Kammer 15a der Säule 1 eine gewisse Reibwirkung, wodurch die Rotationsabdeckung 23 zwar an sich leichtgängig gehalten und geführt ist, gleichzeitig aber durch die zumindest geringe reibschlüssige Verbindung sicherstellt, dass die Rotationsabdeckung 23 nicht unbeabsichtigt zu leichtgängig in Öffnungsstellung verdreht werden kann.In the open position, any cables (for example power cable, telephone cable, modem cable, data cable or cable for the networking of a computer, printer cable, etc.) can easily be inserted into the cable channel, wherein in the embodiment shown by the more than 180 °, for example more than 270 ', more than 315 ° or more than 330 ° circumferentially closed
Mit anderen Worten weist also das Rotationsteil eine teilzylindrische Form auf, im Querschnitt also eine teilkreisförmige Form, die in Umfangsrichtung zumindest so groß ist, dass die spaltförmige Öffnung 19 in Längsrichtung der Säule 1 geschlossen werden kann. Von daher soll das Rotationsteil in Umfangsrichtung zumindest einen Winkelbereich von mehr als 30°, insbesondere mehr als 45°, 90° oder 180° abdecken. Bevorzugt ist eine Wandung in einem umlaufenden Winkelbereich von 270° und mehr möglich, wodurch eine besonders einfache Lagerung des Drehteils in dem entsprechenden Innenraum der Säule 1 gewährleistet werden kann.In other words, therefore, the rotary member has a part-cylindrical shape, in cross-section so a part-circular shape, which is at least so large in the circumferential direction that the gap-shaped

Theoretisch könnten auch durch die geschlossene weitere Kammer 15b Kabel verlegt werden. Dies wäre aber mühsamer, da hier die Kabel von unten nach oben "eingefädelt" und hindurch geschoben werden müssten, also nicht von der Seite her verkabelt werden könnten.Theoretically, 15b cables could also be laid through the closed further chamber. But this would be more cumbersome, since here the cables "threaded" from bottom to top and would have to be pushed through, so could not be wired from the side.

Natürlich kann bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel insbesondere gemäß den

Wie erwähnt wird die schlitzförmige Ausnehmung 19 der Wandung 3 in der Säule 1 bzw. die schlitzförmige Ausnehmung 29 in dem Rotationsteil 23 im Wesentlichen in Längsrichtung der Säule 1 und damit in Parallelrichtung zur Rotationsachse 27 des Rotationsteils ausgebildet sein. Möglich ist aber beispielsweise auch eine zumindest geringfügige wendelförmige Struktur, bei der die schlitzförmige Ausnehmung zumindest in einem kleinen Winkelbereich auch in Umfangsrichtung verlaufend geneigt ist. In allen Fällen sollte allerdings der Verlauf und damit die Ausrichtung der schlitzförmigen Ausnehmungen gleich verlaufend sein, so dass sie stets in einer Rotationsstellung in überlappende Position bringbar sind, um den gesamten Kabelkanal von unten nach oben in der Säule 1 bei Drehung des Rotationsteils in Öffnungsstellung freizugeben.As mentioned, the slot-shaped
Aus den erläuterten Ausführungsbeispielen ergibt sich auch, dass das Rotationsteil 23 insbesondere in Form des Drehkanals 123 nicht im Bereich seiner Dreh- oder Rotationsachse 27 gelagert ist, sondern die Lagerung an seinem, den Verschlussteil selbst bildenden Zylindermantel erfolgt, der sich je nach Ausführungsbeispiel entweder an der Innenseite der Kammer 15a der Säule 1 an entsprechenden Stellen abstützt und dadurch gelagert wird, ober beispielsweise bei dem Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß
Die Säule wie aber auch die Rotationsabdeckung 23 können aus beliebigen Materialien gefertigt sein. Insbesondere dann, wenn die Säule für Möbel höhere Traglasten aufnehmen soll, empfiehlt es sich entsprechend geeignete Materialien, beispielsweise Füße aus Aluminiummaterial oder anderen geeigneten Werksstoffen, zu verwenden. Die Gehäuseabdeckung selbst kann aus dem gleichen oder auch aus einem anderen Material bestehen, vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff.The column as well as the
