Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil für eine Vorhangeinrichtung mit einer Mehrzahl von unten offenen Führungskanälen zur Lagerung von jeweils wenigstens einem Zugwagen.
Ein Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil sowie eine Vorhangeinrichtung mit einem solchen Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil sind im Stand der Technik aus der CH-A-653 537 des Anmelders bekannt geworden. Das hier offenbarte Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil ist für eine dreiläufige Flächenvorhang-Einrichtung vorgesehen. Am Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil sind drei Zugwagen gelagert, die mittels eines Schleuderzugs in der Schiene bewegbar sind. Die Zugwagen sind mit Anschlägen und Mitnehmernocken sowie jeweils mit einer flachen Aluminium-Schiene versehen. An dem Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil ist ein Widerhakenband
befestigt, an dem ein Vorhangband mittels eines Widerhakenbandes lösbar befestigt werden kann.
Weitere Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofile und Flächenvorhang-Einrichtungen sind aus der US 5,109,910 und der DE 101 50 777 A bekannt geworden. Solche Mehrkanal Vorhangprofile werden in der Regel vor einem Fenster montiert und ermöglichen ein seitliches Verschieben von Vorhangpaneelen. Häufig ist es erwünscht, dass die Paneele vollständig aus dem Bereich des Fensters verschoben werden können, so dass der vollständige Durchblick durch das Fenster möglich ist. Bei sehr breiten Paneelen ist ein entsprechend grosser Freiraum neben dem Fenster erforderlich. Man spricht hier auch von einem 'Parkieren" der Paneele. Mittels eines winkelförmigen Profils können die Paneele neben dem Fenster, beispielsweise um 90° umgelenkt und damit vor einer Wand angeordnet werden, die rechtwinklig zum Fenster verläuft. Bisher war es jedoch sehr aufwendig und schwierig, Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofile herzustellen, die um einen vergleichsweise engen Radius gebogen sind.The invention relates to a multi-channel curtain profile for a curtain device with a plurality of open-bottom guide channels for storage of at least one train carriage.
A multi-channel curtain profile and a curtain with such a multi-channel curtain profile are known in the art from the CH-A-653 537 have become known to the applicant. The multi-channel curtain profile disclosed herein is intended for a three-panel panel curtain. On the multi-channel curtain profile three train carriages are mounted, which are movable by means of a Schleuderzugs in the rail. The train carriages are equipped with stops and drive cams and each with a flat aluminum rail. At the multi-channel curtain profile is a barb band
attached to which a curtain tape can be releasably secured by means of a barb tape.
Further multi-channel curtain profiles and panel curtain units are available from US 5,109,910 and the DE 101 50 777 A known. Such multi-channel curtain profiles are usually mounted in front of a window and allow lateral displacement of curtain panels. Often it is desirable that the panels can be moved completely out of the area of the window so that full view through the window is possible. For very wide panels, a correspondingly large space next to the window is required. It is also known as a "parking" of the panels.Angled profile allows the panels adjacent to the window to be deflected 90 °, for example, in front of a wall that is perpendicular to the window, but so far it has been very complicated and difficult To produce multi-channel curtain profiles that are bent to a comparatively narrow radius.

Aus DE 1 838 354 U ist ein gebogenes, mehrläufiges Laufschienensystem bekannt, wobei ein Bogenstück über Einzelschienen, verbunden mit einem Verbindungsstück gebildet wird. Dabei werden die Einzelschienen und die Verbindungsstücke mittels Ansätzen und Nuten, ausgebildet an den aneinander liegenden Flächen, auf ihrer ganzen Länge ineinandergeschoben. Als nachteilig erweist sich, dass das Bogenstück fest ist und ein derartiges Laufschienensystem demnach nicht in eine beliebige gebogene Form gebracht werden kann.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil zu schaffen, das um einen vergleichsweise kleinen Radius von beispielsweise 90° biegbar ist.Out DE 1 838 354 U is a curved, multi-track rail system known, wherein a piece of elbow on individual rails, connected to a connector is formed. In this case, the individual rails and the connecting pieces by means of lugs and grooves, formed on the adjacent surfaces, are pushed together on their entire length. A disadvantage proves that the elbow is fixed and therefore such a track system can not be brought into any curved shape.
The invention has for its object to provide a multi-channel curtain profile which is bendable by a relatively small radius of for example 90 °.

Das erfindungsgemässe Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil mit geraden und gebogenen Bereichen ist aus einer Mehrzahl von Profilen hergestellt, die jeweils einen der Führungskanäle bilden. Das Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass die Profile in Längsrichtung der Kanäle verschiebbar und wenigstens quer zur Längsrichtung fest miteinander durch eine Rastverbindung verbunden sind. Es hat sich überraschend gezeigt, dass ein solches Mehrkanal Vorhangprofil mit einem vergleichsweise kleinen Biegeradius von beispielsweise 10 bis 20 cm um einen Winkel von 90° gebogen werden kann. Zudem kann das Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil auch mehrfach, beispielsweise S-förmig gebogen werden. Die einzelnen miteinander verbundenen Profile sind vergleichsweise schmal und können sich beim Biegen relativ zueinander verschieben. Durch die feste Verbindung quer zur Längsrichtung bleiben die Profile jedoch beim Biegen als auch nachher fest miteinander verbunden. Das Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil bildet somit eine Einheit, die wie einfachere Profile montiert werden kann. Es sind Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofile, beispielsweise mit bis zu fünf oder mehr Kanälen möglich. Mit dem Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil können somit beispielsweise S-förmige gebogene fünfläufige Vorhangeinrichtungen hergestellt werden. Da eine Biegung um beispielsweise 90° mit vergleichsweise kleinem Radius möglich ist, ist auch in vergleichsweise kleinen Räumen ein Parkieren der Paneele bzw. Vorhänge an einer Seitenwand möglich. Das erfindungsgemässe Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil eignet sich insbesondere für eine Flachvorhang-Einrichtung und insbesondere eine Vorhangeinrichtung mit horizontal verschiebbaren Paneelen. Möglich ist aber auch die Herstellung von anderen Vorhangeinrichtungen, beispielsweise von Raffvorhang Einrichtungen.The multi-channel curtain profile according to the invention with straight and curved regions is made from a plurality of profiles which each form one of the guide channels. The multi-channel curtain profile is characterized in that the profiles in the longitudinal direction of the channels are displaceable and at least transversely to the longitudinal direction firmly connected to each other by a latching connection. It has surprisingly been found that such a multi-channel curtain profile can be bent by an angle of 90 ° with a comparatively small bending radius of for example 10 to 20 cm. In addition, the multi-channel curtain profile can also be bent several times, for example S-shaped. The individual interconnected profiles are relatively narrow and can move relative to each other when bending. Due to the fixed connection transversely to the longitudinal direction, however, the profiles remain firmly joined together during bending as well as afterwards. The multi-channel curtain profile thus forms a unit that can be mounted like simpler profiles. There are multi-channel curtain profiles, for example, with up to five or more channels possible. The multi-channel curtain profile can thus be used to produce, for example, S-shaped curved five-level curtain devices. Since a bend of 90 °, for example, with a relatively small radius is possible, it is possible to park the panels or curtains on a side wall even in comparatively small rooms. The inventive multi-channel curtain profile is particularly suitable for a flat curtain device and in particular a curtain device with horizontally movable panels. But it is also possible to produce other curtains, such as Raffvorhang facilities.

Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die Profile jeweils Im Wesentlichen über ihre gesamte Länge miteinander mechanisch gekoppelt sind. Eine besonders einfache Herstellung des Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofils ergibt sich dann, wenn gemäss einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung die Profile jeweils im Wesentlichen unlösbar miteinander verrastet sind. Alternativ ist auch eine schwalbenschwanz-Verbindung möglich. Solche Verrastungen können sehr einfach und sicher hergestellt werden, wobei die Verschiebbarkeit in Längsrichtung des Profils möglich ist. Solche Profile können insbesondere als Aluminium-Profile hergestellt werden.According to a development of the invention, it is provided that the profiles are each mechanically coupled to one another essentially over their entire length. A particularly simple production of the multi-channel curtain profile results when, according to a development of the invention, the profiles are in each case latched substantially inseparably with one another. Alternatively, a dovetail connection is possible. Such locks can be made very easily and safely, the displacement in the longitudinal direction of the profile is possible. Such profiles can be produced in particular as aluminum profiles.

Die Erfindung betrifft zudem eine Vorhangeinrichtung mit wenigstens einem Mehrkanal Vorhangprofil. Diese Vorhangeinrichtung besitzt mehrere Zugwagen, an denen jeweils ein Vorhang befestigbar ist und die jeweils in einem der genannten Kanäle verschiebbar geführt sind. Die Zugwagen können beispielsweise mittels eine Schleuderzugs bewegt werden. Es sind aber auch andere Antriebe und insbesondere auch ein motorischer Antrieb denkbar.The invention also relates to a curtain device with at least one multi-channel curtain profile. This curtain device has a plurality of train carriages, to each of which a curtain can be fastened and which are displaceably guided in each case in one of said channels. The train carriage can be moved, for example by means of a Schleuderzugs. But there are also other drives and in particular a motor drive conceivable.

Die Erfindung berrifft zudem ein Verfahren zum Herstellen eines Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofils. Bei diesem Verfahren ist vorgesehen, dass eine Mehrzahl von Profilen entlang wenigstens einer Längsseite in Längsrichtung verschiebbar miteinander verbunden werden und dass diese miteinander verbundenen Profile quer zu ihrer Längserstreckung gemeinsam gebogen werden.The invention also contemplates a method of making a multi-channel curtain profile. In this method, it is provided that a plurality of profiles along at least one longitudinal side in the longitudinal direction are displaceably connected to each other and that these interconnected profiles are bent together transversely to their longitudinal extent.

Die in Figur 1 gezeigte Vorhangeinrichtung 1 weist ein hier lediglich Abschnittsweise gezeigtes Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil 2 auf, das vor einem Fenster, beispielsweise mit hier nicht gezeigten Haltern an einer Gebäudedecke befestigbar ist. Das Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil 2 kann gemäss den Figuren 2 und 3 in einer Nische 10 einer Wand 9 versenkt angeordnet sein. Dies ist jedoch nicht zwingend. Am Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil 2 sind fünf Zugwagen 5 gelagert, die mit Gleitern 26 jeweils in einem in Figur 2 gezeigten Kanal 13 eines Profils 12 verschieblich geführt sind. An jedem Zugwagen 5 ist lösbar ein Vorhang 4 befestigt, der vergleichsweise breit ist und sich vertikal erstreckt. Die Kanäle 13 sind an den Enden jeweils mit einem aufgerasteten Deckel 3 verschlossen. An den Enden der Zugwagen 5 ist jeweils ein Mitnehmer 6, 6' bzw. 7 (Fig. 11, 12 und 13) befestigt. Dies ermöglicht ein gruppenweises Verschieben der Vorhänge 4. In der Figur 1 ist der vorderste Vorhang 4 aus zeichnerischen Gründen weggelassen. Die Vorhänge 4 können unterschiedlich sein. Sie können beispielsweise als Flachvorhänge oder auch als Raffvorhänge ausgebildet sein.
Das Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil 2 besteht wie bereits erwähnt aus mehreren Profilen 12, die jeweils einen Kanal 13 besitzen, der sich in Längsrichtung der Profile 12 erstreckt. Die Kanäle 13 sind jeweils unten entlang eines Schlitzes 15 offen. In diesem Schlitz 15 sind die Gleiter 26 geführt. Die Profile 12 sind insbesondere Aluminium-Profile, die pulverbeschichtet oder eloxiert sein können. Die Profile 12 können aber auch aus einem anderen geeigneten biegbaren Material hergestellt sein. Die Profile 12 sind jeweils seitlich und entlang ihrer gesamten Länge fest miteinander verbunden. Die Verbindung zwischen jeweils zwei Profilen 12 ist eine Rastverbindung. Hierzu besitzen die Profile 12 gemäss Figur 5 auf der linken Seite eine sich über die gesamte Länge des Profils 12 erstreckende seitlich vorstehende Rastrippe 17 und in einem unteren Bereich einen sich ebenfalls in der gesamten Länge erstreckenden Greifteil 19, der im Schnitt hakenförmig ausgebildet ist. Auf der rechten Seite besitzen die Profile 12 jeweils im oberen Bereich eine sich nach unten erstreckende vergleichsweise kurze und an einem äusseren Ende eines Stegs 14 angeordnet Rastlippe 16 sowie im unteren Bereich eine Aufnahme 18, die sich ebenfalls über die ganze Länge des Profils 12 erstreckt. Das Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil 2 gemäss der Figur 2 besteht aus fünf gleichen Profilen 12. Das äusserste linke Profil kann jedoch auch gemäss der Figur 4 als Profil 11 ausgebildet sein. Dieses Profil 11 unterscheidet sich vom Profil 12 durch eine äussere ebene Fläche 30, die eine Abschlussfläche bildet.In the FIG. 1 shown curtain means 1 has a here only partially shown multi-channel curtain profile 2, which is fastened to a building ceiling in front of a window, for example with holders not shown here. The multi-channel curtain profile 2 can according to the FIGS. 2 and 3 be recessed in a niche 10 of a wall 9. However, this is not mandatory. On multi-channel curtain profile 2 five train carriage 5 are mounted, each with sliders 26 in an in FIG. 2 shown channel 13 of a profile 12 are guided displaceably. At each carriage 5, a curtain 4 is releasably secured, which is relatively wide and extends vertically. The channels 13 are closed at the ends in each case with a latched lid 3. At the ends of the train carriage 5 is a respective driver 6, 6 'and 7 ( Fig. 11, 12th and 13 ) attached. This allows groupwise moving the curtains 4. In the FIG. 1 the front curtain 4 is omitted for illustrative reasons. The curtains 4 can be different. They can be designed, for example, as flat curtains or as Roman blinds.
The multi-channel curtain profile 2 consists, as already mentioned, of a plurality of profiles 12, each of which has a channel 13 which extends in the longitudinal direction of the profiles 12. The channels 13 are each open at the bottom along a slot 15. In this slot 15, the slider 26 are guided. The profiles 12 are in particular aluminum profiles, which may be powder-coated or anodized. However, the profiles 12 may also be made of another suitable bendable material. The profiles 12 are each connected laterally and firmly along their entire length. The connection between each two profiles 12 is a latching connection. For this purpose, the profiles 12 according to FIG. 5 on the left side over the entire length of the profile 12 extending laterally projecting locking rib 17 and in a lower region a likewise extending in the entire length of the gripping member 19 which is hook-shaped in section. On the right side, the profiles 12 each have in the upper region a downwardly extending relatively short and arranged on an outer end of a web 14 locking lip 16 and in the lower region a receptacle 18, which also extends over the entire length of the profile 12. The multi-channel curtain profile 2 according to FIG. 2 consists of five identical profiles 12. However, the extreme left profile can also according to the FIG. 4 be formed as a profile 11. This profile 11 differs from the profile 12 by an outer flat surface 30, which forms a termination surface.

Die Figur 6 zeigt, wie ein Profil 11 mit einem Profil 12 mechanisch verbunden wird. Zunächst wird der Greifteil 19 in die Aufnahme 18 eingesetzt. In Richtung des Pfeils 20 wird nun das Profil 12 gegen das Profil 11 verschwenkt, so dass die Rastrippe 17 an der Rastrippe 16 entlanggleitet und diese schliesslich hintergreifft. Die beiden Profile 11 und 12 sind nun entlang ihrer gesamten Längen fest verbunden. Gleichzeitig können die Profile 11 und 12 in Längsrichtung gegeneinander verschoben werden. Die Profile 11 und 12 können somit relativ zueinander in den Längsrichtungen gleiten. Quer zur Längsrichtung sind sie jedoch fest miteinander verbunden. Anstelle der gezeigten Rastverbindung ist auch eine andere Verbindung möglich, beispielsweise eine Schwalbenschwanz-Verbindung. Auch diese ermöglicht eine Längsverschiebung bei gleichzeitig fester Verankerung quer zur Längsrichtung. Die Verbindung zwischen zwei Profilen 12 ist gleich ausgebildet. Das Zusammensetzen erfolgt ebenfalls gemäss Figur 6. Das Profil 11 kann entsprechend nur an einer Seite verbunden werden, während die Profile 12 jeweils an beiden Seiten mit einem weiteren Profil 12 bzw. 11 verbunden werden können.The FIG. 6 shows how a profile 11 is mechanically connected to a profile 12. First, the gripping member 19 is inserted into the receptacle 18. In the direction of the arrow 20, the profile 12 is now pivoted against the profile 11, so that the locking rib 17 slides along the locking rib 16 and this finally grasped behind. The two profiles 11 and 12 are now firmly connected along their entire length. At the same time, the profiles 11 and 12 can be displaced in the longitudinal direction against each other. The profiles 11 and 12 can thus slide relative to each other in the longitudinal directions. However, they are firmly connected to one another transversely to the longitudinal direction. Instead of the locking connection shown, another connection is possible, for example, a dovetail connection. This also allows a longitudinal displacement with simultaneous anchoring transverse to the longitudinal direction. The connection between two profiles 12 is the same. The assembly also takes place according to FIG. 6 , The profile 11 can be connected according to only one side, while the profiles 12 can be connected in each case on both sides with a further profile 12 and 11 respectively.

Das Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil 2 besteht aus fünf Profilen 12 und ist somit fünfläufig. Die Anzahl der Profile 12, die miteinander verbunden werden, ist an sich beliebig. Denkbar ist beispielsweise auch ein Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil 2' mit acht Profilen 12, wie dies in Figur 3 gezeigt ist. Denkbar ist aber auch ein Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil 2 mit lediglich zwei Profilen 12 bzw. 11 und 12. Das in Figur 7 gezeigte Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil 2" ist aus einem Profil 11 und vier Profilen 12 hergestellt.The multi-channel curtain profile 2 consists of five profiles 12 and is thus five-level. The number of profiles 12 that are connected to each other is arbitrary. It is also conceivable, for example, a multi-channel curtain profile 2 'with eight profiles 12, as shown in FIG. 3 is shown. It is also conceivable, however, a multi-channel curtain profile 2 with only two profiles 12 and 11 and 12. The in FIG. 7 shown multi-channel curtain profile 2 "is made of a profile 11 and four profiles 12.

Das Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil 2 ist vorzugsweise gebogen und besitzt Beispielsweise gemäss Figur 8 eine Biegung 2a und einen geraden Arm 2b sowie einen zweiten geraden Arm 2c. Die Biegung 2a ist beispielsweise eine Biegung um 90° oder weniger als 90° und einem Biegeradius von vorzugsweise kleiner als 50 cm, insbesondere 10 bis 20 cm. Der längere Arm 2c ist insbesondere der Arm, der sich über einem Fenster horizontal erstreckt. Der kürzere Arm 2b erstreckt sich seitlich neben dem Fenster rechtwinklig von Diesem weg. Die Länge des Arms 2b entspricht etwa der Breite eines Vorhangs 4 bzw. der Länge eines Zugwagens 5. Die Zugwagen 5 können jeweils entlang des Mehrkanal Vorhangprofils 2 zwischen den beiden Armen 2b und 2c verschoben werden. Befinden sich die Zugwagen 5 bzw. die Vorhänge 4 im Bereich des Arms 2c, so befindet sie sich vor dem hier nicht gezeigten Fenster. Sind die Zugwagen 5 und die Vorhänge 4 hingegen in den Arm 2b verschoben, so geben diese das Fenster frei. Selbstverständlich ist es auch möglich, dass sich ein Teil der Zugwagen 5 im Bereich des Arms 2c und die anderen Zugwagen 5 im Bereich des Arms 2b oder 2a befinden.The multi-channel curtain profile 2 is preferably bent and has for example according to FIG. 8 a bend 2a and a straight arm 2b and a second straight arm 2c. The bend 2a is for example a bend by 90 ° or less than 90 ° and a bending radius of preferably less than 50 cm, in particular 10 to 20 cm. The longer arm 2c is in particular the arm which extends horizontally over a window. The shorter arm 2b extends laterally adjacent to the window at right angles therefrom. The length of the arm 2b corresponds approximately to the width of a curtain 4 or the length of a towing vehicle 5. The train carriages 5 can each be moved along the multi-channel curtain profile 2 between the two arms 2b and 2c. If the train carriages 5 or the curtains 4 are located in the region of the arm 2c, they are located in front of the window, not shown here. If the train carriage 5 and the curtains 4, however, moved into the arm 2b, they give the window free. Of course, it is also possible for part of the towing carriages 5 to be located in the region of the arm 2c and for the other towing carriages 5 to be in the region of the arm 2b or 2a.

Die Figur 9 zeigt ein Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil 2"', das wie ersichtlich S-förmig Gebogen ist. Es besitzt somit zwei Biegungen 2a'" und 2b "'. Ausser der gezeigten winkelförmigen Ausbildung gemäss Figur 8 und der S-förmigen Ausbildung gemäss Figur 9 sind auch andere Formen möglich, beispielsweise eine U-förmige Form. Es sind auch solche mit mehr als zwei Biegungen möglich.The FIG. 9 shows a multi-channel curtain profile 2 "', which is bent as shown S-shaped, thus having two bends 2a'" and 2b "' FIG. 8 and the S-shaped training according to FIG. 9 Other shapes are possible, for example, a U-shaped form. There are also possible with more than two bends.

Die gebogenen Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofile 2 bzw. 2 "' gemäss den Figuren 8 und 9 werden hergestellt, indem zunächst die Profile 12 bzw. 11 und 12 gemäss Figur 6 zu einem geraden Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil verbunden werden. Anschliessend wird dieses gerade Mehrkanal-Vorhangprofil in einer Biegevorrichtung an einer entsprechenden Matrize in die gewünschte Form gebogen. Hierbei verschieben sich die Profile 12 bzw. 11 und 12 entlang ihrer Längsrichtungen. An den Enden müssen dann die Profile 12 bzw. 11 und 12 entsprechend gekürzt werden, so dass ebene Stirnflächen 31 bzw. 31' gemäss den Figuren 8 und 9 gebildet werden. Die noch offenen Kanäle 13 werden schliesslich mit den Deckeln 3 verschlossen.The curved multi-channel curtain profiles 2 and 2 "'according to the FIGS. 8 and 9 are prepared by first the profiles 12 and 11 and 12 according to FIG. 6 be connected to a straight multi-channel curtain profile. Subsequently, this straight multi-channel curtain profile is bent in a bending device on a corresponding die in the desired shape. Here, the profiles 12 and 11 and 12 shift along their longitudinal directions. At the ends then the profiles 12 and 11 and 12 must be shortened accordingly, so that flat end faces 31 and 31 'according to the FIGS. 8 and 9 be formed. The still open channels 13 are finally closed with the lids 3.

Damit die Zugwagen 5 um die Biegungen 2a bzw. 2a"' und 2b"' bewegt werden können, sind diese zumindest in der Längsrichtung hochflexibel ausgebildet. Die Zugwagen 5 besitzen einen flachen und länglichen Grundkörper 23, der beispielsweise aus einer flachen und vergleichsweise dünnen Kunststoffschiene hergestellt ist. In den Biegungen 2a bzw. 2a"' und 2b"' können sich die Zugwagen 5 entsprechend elastisch biegen. Da die Zugwagen 5 flexibel sind,gehen sie jeweils wieder in die in Figur 10 gezeigte gerade Form über.So that the carriages 5 can be moved around the bends 2a and 2a '' and 2b '', they are designed to be highly flexible at least in the longitudinal direction. The carriage 5 have a flat and elongated body 23, which is made for example of a flat and relatively thin plastic rail. In the bends 2a and 2a "'and 2b"', the Turn the carriage 5 accordingly elastically. Since the train carriages 5 are flexible, they each go back to the in FIG. 10 shown straight form over.

In einem oberen Bereich sind in den Körper 23 durchgehende rechteckige oder Runde Öffnungen 22 eingearbeitet, die eine Lochreihe zum Befestigen der Gleiter 26 sowie der in den Figuren 11 bis 13 gezeigten Mitnehmer 6, 6' bzw. 7 aufweisen. Die Gleiter 26 können in einfacher Weise auf den Grundkörper 23 aufgesetzt und verrastet werden. Hierbei greift ein Ansatz 32 eines Trägers 29 in eine der Öffnungen 22 ein. In die gleiche Öffnung greift von der anderen Seite eine Rastzunge 33 ein. Der Gleiter 26 ist damit in der vorgesehenen Position lösbar mit dem Zugwagen 5 verbunden. Am Gleiter 26 können Rollen 28 gelagert sein, die ein sehr reibungsarmes Bewegen des Zugwagens 5 ermöglichen. Möglich sind aber auch Gleiter ohne Rollen 28. Die Mitnehmer 6, 6' bzw. 7 besitzen jeweils seitlich vorragende Flügel 8, 8' bzw. 8", die an einem Halter 27 angeformt sind. In einem unteren Bereich ist zudem am Halter 27 ein Halteteil 35 angeformt, das zum Befestigen des Mitnehmers 6, 6' bzw. 7 mit einer Zahnung 25 des Grundkörpers 23 in Eingriff bringbar ist. Die Zahnung 25 ist im gleichen Raster ausgebildet wie die Öffnungen 22. In einem oberen Bereich sind am Halter 27 zwei Ansätze 37 angeformt, welche jeweils in eine Öffnung 22 einsetzbar sind. Über diesen Ansätzen 37 besitzen die Halter 27 jeweils einen Befestigungsteil 36, der um ein Filmscharnier 34 um 180° umbiegbar ist. Am Befestigungsteil 36 ist eine in den Figuren 11 bis 13 nur teilweise sichtbare Rastzungen 38 angeformt, die bei umgebogenem Befestigungsteil 36 in eine der Öffnungen 22 eingreift. Die Mitnehmer 6, 6' bzw. 7 können somit sehr einfach und trotzdem sicher sowie lösbar am Zugwagen 5 befestigt werden.In an upper area in the body 23 through rectangular or round openings 22 are incorporated, which has a row of holes for attaching the slider 26 as well as in the FIGS. 11 to 13 shown driver 6, 6 'and 7, respectively. The slider 26 can be easily placed on the base body 23 and locked. In this case, a projection 32 of a carrier 29 engages in one of the openings 22. In the same opening engages a latching tongue 33 from the other side. The slider 26 is thus releasably connected to the train carriage 5 in the intended position. On the slider 26 rollers 28 may be stored, which allow a very low-friction movement of the carriage 5. Gliders without rollers 28 are also possible, however, and the drivers 6, 6 'and 7 respectively have laterally projecting wings 8, 8' and 8 ", which are formed on a holder 27. In a lower region, a holder 27 is also provided Holding part 35 is formed, which can be brought into engagement with a toothing 25 of the base body 23 for fastening the driver 6, 6 'or 7. The toothing 25 is formed in the same grid as the openings 22. In an upper area are on the holder 27 two Lugs 37 are formed, which are each insertable into an opening 22. About these lugs 37, the holders 27 each have a fastening part 36 which is umbiegbar by a film hinge 34 by 180 ° FIGS. 11 to 13 only partially visible latching tongues 38 integrally formed, which engages in one of the openings 22 with bent fastening part 36. The drivers 6, 6 'and 7 can thus be very easily and yet securely and releasably secured to the carriage 5.

Am Körper 23 ist seitlich ein Befestigungsteil 24 zum lösbaren Befestigen der Vorhänge 4 angeordnet. Dieser Befestigungsteil 24 erstreckt sich über die gesamte Länge des Körpers 23 bzw. des Zugwagens 5. Der Befestigungsteil 24 ist beispielsweise ein Widerhakenband, das mit einem hier nicht gezeigten Klettflorband des entsprechenden Vorhangs 4 lösbar verbindbar ist. Es sind hier aber selbstverständlich auch andere Verbindungen denkbar. Der Befestigungsteil 24 kann auch integral in den Körper 23 eingearbeitet sein.
