Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Auftragsgerät mit einem stielförmigen Schaft.The invention relates to a coating device with a stem-shaped shaft.

Im Üblichen weisen Auftragsgeräte, wie beispielsweise Pinsel, einen stielförmigen Schaft auf, an dessen vorderen Ende ein Auftragselement befestigt ist. Als Auftragselement dienen beispielsweise Borsten, mittels derer ein Medium, wie Farbe, auf eine Unterlage, wie etwa ein Zeichenblock, aufgetragen werden kann. Bei einem herkömmlichen Pinsel ist das Auftragselement auch während der Aufbewahrung oder dem Transport gegen äußere Einflüsse ungeschützt, so dass dieses dadurch leicht beschädigt werden kann.Conventionally, applicators, such as brushes, have a stick-shaped shank at the front end of which an applicator element is attached. The application element is, for example, bristles, by means of which a medium, such as paint, can be applied to a substrate, such as a drawing pad. In a conventional brush, the applicator element is also unprotected during storage or transport against external influences, so that this can easily be damaged.

Es ist nun Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ein Auftragsgerät vorzuschlagen, bei dem diese Nachteile vermieden werden.It is an object of the present invention to propose a coating device in which these disadvantages are avoided.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe gelöst durch ein Auftragsgerät gemäß Patentanspruch 1. Danach umfasst das Auftragsgerät einen stielförmigen Schaft, ein an einem vorderen Ende des Schafts befestigtes Auftragselement zum Auftragen eines Mediums auf eine Unterlage und eine den Schaft koaxial umschließende Griffhülse. Dabei ist die Griffhülse gegenüber dem Schaft derart axial verschiebbar angeordnet, dass sie in eine das Auftragselement umhüllende Ruhestellung und in eine das Auftragselement zum Auftragen des Mediums freigebende Arbeitsstellung bewegbar ist.According to the invention this object is achieved by a coating apparatus according to claim 1. Thereafter, the applicator comprises a stem-shaped shaft, a attached to a front end of the shaft applicator for applying a medium to a substrate and a coaxially surrounding the shaft grip sleeve. In this case, the grip sleeve is arranged axially displaceably relative to the shaft such that it can be moved into a rest position enveloping the application element and into a working position releasing the application element for applying the medium.

Durch die Umhüllung des Auftragselements in der Ruhestellung der Griffhülse wird gewährleistet, dass beispielsweise zum Transport des Gerätes das Auftragselement geschützt wird und somit eine Beschädigung durch äußere Gegenstände vermieden wird. Somit hat die Griffhülse auch die Funktion einer Schutzkappe für das Auftragselement. Da jedoch die Griffhülse am Auftragsgerät fixiert, also selbst Bestandteil des Auftragsgerätes ist, ist zum Schutz des Auftragselements kein separates Teil, wie etwa eine zusätzliche Schutzkappe notwendig, welches unbeabsichtigt verloren gehen kann. Zum Arbeiten mit dem Pinsel kann dann die Griffhülse durch eine Axialverschiebung in ihre Arbeitsstellung gebracht werden, in der das Auftragselement zum Auftragen eines Mediums auf eine Unterlage freigegeben ist.By wrapping the applicator element in the rest position of the grip sleeve ensures that, for example, for transporting the device, the applicator element is protected and thus damage caused by external objects is avoided. Thus, the grip sleeve also has the function of a protective cap for the applicator element. However, since the grip sleeve fixed on the applicator, so even part of the applicator is to protect the applicator no separate part, such as an additional protective cap necessary, which can be lost unintentionally. To work with the brush then the grip sleeve can be brought by an axial displacement in its working position, in which the applicator element is released for applying a medium to a substrate.

Wenn sich die Griffhülse in der Arbeitsstellung zumindest über einen Längsbereich des Schafts erstreckt, der zum Halten des Auftragsgerätes dient, kann die Griffhülse derart ausgeformt werden, dass diese auch gleichzeitig für den Benutzer eine besonders ergonomische Haltung des Auftragsgerätes ermöglicht. Somit erfüllt die Griffhülse zwei Funktionen. Zum einen dient sie als Schutz des Auftragselementes in der Ruhestellung und zum anderen als Griff mit dem das Auftragsgerät gehalten und geführt werden kann.If the grip sleeve extends in the working position at least over a longitudinal region of the shaft, which serves to hold the applicator, the grip sleeve can be formed such that it also allows the user a particularly ergonomic attitude of the applicator. Thus, the grip sleeve fulfills two functions. On the one hand it serves as protection of the applicator element in the rest position and on the other hand as a handle with which the applicator can be held and guided.

Um ein loses Hin- und Herpendeln der Griffhülse zwischen der Arbeitsstellung und der Ruhestellung zu vermeiden und um somit die Handhabung des Auftragsgerätes zu verbessern, ist die Griffhülse jeweils in der Arbeitsstellung und in der Ruhestellung durch eine lösbare Rastverbindung an dem Schaft in Axialrichtung fixierbar.In order to avoid a loose back and forth of the grip sleeve between the working position and the rest position and thus to improve the handling of the applicator, the grip sleeve is fixed in the working position and in the rest position by a releasable locking connection to the shaft in the axial direction.

Eine derartige Rastverbindung kann auf einfache Weise hergestellt werden, indem das vordere Ende des Schafts eine erste Rastnase und das hintere Ende des Schafts eine zweite Rastnase aufweist, die aus der Oberfläche des Schaft hervorstehen, wobei in der Arbeitsstellung die zweite Rastnase und in der Ruhestellung die erste Rastnase von einem Rastelement der Griffhülse hintergriffen ist.Such a latching connection can be produced in a simple manner by the front end of the shaft having a first latching nose and the rear end of the shaft has a second latching nose, which protrude from the surface of the shaft, wherein in the working position the second latching lug and in the rest position the first locking lug is engaged behind by a locking element of the grip sleeve.

Wenn die zweite Rastnase weiter aus der Oberfläche des Schafts hervorsteht als die erste Rastnase, ist die Rastverbindung mit der zweiten Rastnase stabiler ausgelegt als die Verbindung mit der ersten Rastnase, sodass beim Arbeiten mit dem Auftragsgerät auftretende Axialkräfte die Rastverbindung mit der zweiten Rastnase nicht lösen können.If the second locking lug protrudes further from the surface of the shaft than the first latching lug, the latching connection with the second latching lug is designed to be more stable than the connection with the first latching lug, so that axial forces occurring when working with the applicator unit can not release the latching connection with the second latching lug ,

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist das Rastelement an der Innenseite der Griffhülse angeformt. Dadurch ist das Rastelement in der Griffhülse integriert und kann auf einfache Art und Weise mit der Rastnase des Schafts zusammenwirken.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the locking element is integrally formed on the inside of the grip sleeve. As a result, the locking element is integrated in the grip sleeve and can interact in a simple manner with the latching lug of the shaft.

Zur Lösung der Rastverbindung mit der zweiten Rastnase ist am hinteren Ende der Griffhülse ein Betätigungselement angeformt. Somit ist hierfür kein zusätzliches Bauteil notwendig, was den Fertigungs- und Montageaufwand reduziert.To solve the locking connection with the second detent an actuating element is formed at the rear end of the grip sleeve. Thus, no additional component is necessary for this, which reduces the manufacturing and assembly costs.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist das Betätigungselement durch einen schräg zur Axialrichtung in die Griffhülse eingebrachten Schlitz freigeschnitten.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the actuating element is cut free by a slot introduced obliquely to the axial direction in the grip sleeve.

Vorzugsweise kann die Rastverbindung mit der ersten Rastnase des Schafts durch eine lediglich durch Axialkräfte bedingte Verformung der Griffhülse lösbar sein. Es muss hierfür also kein Betätigungselement erforderlich sein.Preferably, the latching connection with the first latching lug of the shaft by a conditional only by axial forces Deformation of the grip sleeve be solvable. It must therefore be required for this no actuator.

Der Schaft ist vorzugsweise aus einem vorderen, das Auftragselement haltenden Schaftabschnitt und einem hinteren Schaftabschnitt gebildet, wobei der Übergang der beiden Schaftabschnitte durch eine zum hinteren Schaftende weisende Radialschulter gebildet ist. Diese Radialschulter dient als Anschlag zur Begrenzung des Axialverschiebeweges der Griffhülse in Richtung der Ruhestellung.The shaft is preferably formed of a front, the applicator element holding shaft portion and a rear shaft portion, wherein the transition of the two shaft portions is formed by a pointing to the rear shaft end radial shoulder. This radial shoulder serves as a stop for limiting the Axialverschiebeweges the grip sleeve in the direction of the rest position.

Wenn der vordere Schaftabschnitt und der hintere Schaftabschnitt zwei separate Teile sind und der vordere Schaftabschnitt auf den hinteren Schaftabschnitt aufgesteckt ist, kann lediglich durch ein Austauschen des vorderen Schaftabschnitts auch das Auftragselement ausgetauscht werden, so dass beispielsweise an demselben Auftragsgerät mehrere Pinselgrößen einsetzbar sind.If the front shaft portion and the rear shaft portion are two separate parts and the front shaft portion is attached to the rear shaft portion, only by replacing the front shaft portion and the applicator can be exchanged, so that, for example, on the same applicator more brush sizes can be used.

Indem die Griffhülse auf ihrer Innenseite ein Anschlagselement aufweist, welches in der Ruhestellung an der Radialschulter anliegt, wird vermieden, dass die Griffhülse über die Ruhestellung hinaus über den Schaft gleiten kann. Dieses Anschlagselement wirkt dazu mit der zwischen den beiden Schaftabschnitten gebildeten Radialschulter zusammen.By the grip sleeve having on its inner side a stop element, which rests in the rest position on the radial shoulder, it is avoided that the grip sleeve can slide beyond the rest position beyond the shaft. This stop element cooperates with the radial shoulder formed between the two shaft sections.

Bei einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist die Außenkontur eines sich an die Radialschulter angrenzenden Längsbereiches des vorderen Schaftabschnitts komplementär zur Innenkontur der Griffhülse ausgestaltet. Somit wird eine Führung der Griffhülse ermöglicht, wenn diese zwischen der Ruhestellung sowie der Arbeitsstellung hin und her bewegt wird. Vorzugsweise weist die Griffhülse an ihrem hinteren Ende einen radial nach innen vorstehenden Bund auf, dessen Innenkontur zur Außenkontur des hinteren Schaftabschnitts komplementär ausgebildet ist. Auch dadurch wird eine Führung der Griffhülse gewährleistet, während sie zwischen der Ruhe- und Arbeitsstellung hin und her bewegt wird.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the outer contour of a longitudinal region of the front shaft section adjoining the radial shoulder is designed to be complementary to the inner contour of the grip sleeve. Thus, a guide of the grip sleeve is made possible when it is moved back and forth between the rest position and the working position. Preferably, the grip sleeve has at its rear end a radially inwardly projecting collar whose inner contour is complementary to the outer contour of the rear shaft portion. Also, a guidance of the grip sleeve is ensured while it is moved between the rest and working position back and forth.

Wenn das Anschlagselement durch den Bund gebildet wird, wird der Fertigungs- und Montageaufwand reduziert.If the stop element is formed by the collar, the manufacturing and assembly costs are reduced.

Zur einfachen Handhabung ist die Griffhülse gegenüber dem Schaft drehfixiert, so dass die Griffhülse problemlos von der einen Stellung in die andere Stellung gebracht werden kann. Außerdem können auch die Rastverbindungen automatisch eingegangen werden, ohne dass vorher darauf geachtet werden muss, dass sowohl die Rastnase und das Rastelement in korrekter radialer Position zueinander sind.For easy handling, the grip sleeve is rotationally fixed relative to the shaft, so that the grip sleeve can be easily brought from one position to the other position. In addition, the locking connections can be received automatically without having to pay attention beforehand that both the locking lug and the locking element in the correct radial position to each other.

Um diese Drehfixierung zu ermöglichen, weist vorzugsweise die Innenkontur des Bunds und die Außenkontur des hinteren Schaftabschnitts eine von einer Kreisform abweichende Ausgestaltung auf. Beispielsweise kann der Schaftabschnitt einen ovalen Querschnitt haben, sodass eine Drehung der Griffhülse gegenüber des Schafts verhindert wird.In order to enable this rotational fixing, preferably the inner contour of the collar and the outer contour of the rear shaft portion has a deviating from a circular configuration. For example, the shaft portion may have an oval cross section, so that rotation of the grip sleeve relative to the shaft is prevented.

Um eine besonders gute Greifbarkeit des Auftragsgeräts und ein Abrutschen von der Griffhülse zu erreichen, ist die Griffhülse an ihrem vorderen Ende trichterförmig nach außen erweitert.In order to achieve a particularly good gripping the applicator and slipping off of the grip sleeve, the grip sleeve is funnel-shaped at its front end expanded to the outside.

Fig. 1 zeigt ein Auftragsgerät 2, in diesem Fall einen Pinsel, der einen stielförmigen Schaft 4 aufweist. An einem vorderen Ende 6 des Schafts 4 ist ein Auftragselement 8 befestigt, das in gezeigtem Ausführungsbeispiel aus Pinselborsten besteht, die nach vorne konisch zugespitzt geformt sind. Es ist jedoch auch denkbar sämtliche anderen gängigen Pinselformen zu verwenden, wie beispielsweise Flachpinsel. Das vordere Ende 6 des Schafts 4 kann zur Aufnahme des Auftragselements 8 entsprechend ausgeformt sein und eine andere Geometrie aufweisen, als es in dem Ausführungsbeispiel gezeigt ist. Das Auftragselement 8 dient zum Auftragen eines nicht dargestellten Mediums, wie beispielsweise Farbe, auf eine ebenfalls nicht dargestellte Unterlage. Fig. 1 shows a coating device 2, in this case a brush, which has a stem-shaped shaft 4. At a front end 6 of the shaft 4, an applicator element 8 is fixed, which consists of brush bristles in the exemplary embodiment shown, which are formed conically tapered forward. However, it is also possible to use all other common brush shapes, such as flat brush. The front end 6 of the shaft 4 may be formed to accommodate the applicator element 8 and have a different geometry than that shown in the embodiment. The application element 8 is used for applying a medium, not shown, such as paint, on a likewise not shown pad.

Des Weiteren weist das Auftragsgerät 2 eine den Schaft 4 koaxial umschließende Griffhülse 10 auf. Diese ist gegenüber dem Schaft 4 derart axial verschiebbar angeordnet, dass Sie einerseits in eine das Auftragselement 8 umhüllende Ruhestellung 12 bewegbar ist, wie es aus den Fig. 2, 4 und 8 hervorgeht. Andererseits ist die Griffhülse 10 in eine Arbeitsstellung 14 bewegbar, in der das Auftragselement 8 zum Auftragen des Mediums freigegeben ist (Fig. 1, 3, 5, 6, 7 und 10). Die Arbeitsstellung 14 wird hergestellt, indem die Griffhülse 10 aus der Ruhestellung 12 in Richtung des hinteren Endes 16 des Schafts 4 bewegt wird. Die Griffhülse 10 erstreckt sich darin über einen Längsbereich des Schafts 4, der zum Halten des Auftragsgerätes 2 dient. Somit weist die Griffhülse 10 zwei Funktionen auf. Zum einen dient sie als Griff und somit zum Halten des Auftragsgeräts 2 und zum anderen als Schutz des Auftragselements 8, wenn mit dem Auftragsgerät 2 nicht gearbeitet wird, also beispielsweise während dessen Transport oder für eine sichere Aufbewahrung. Es sind damit keine separaten, losen Teile notwendig, die unbeabsichtigter Weise verloren gehen können.Furthermore, the application device 2 has a shank 4 coaxially enclosing the grip sleeve 10. This is arranged so axially displaceable relative to the shaft 4, that on the one hand in a rest position 12 enveloping the applicator element 8 is movable, as it is from the Fig. 2 . 4 and 8th evident. On the other hand, the grip sleeve 10 is movable into a working position 14, in which the applicator element 8 is released for applying the medium ( Fig. 1 . 3 . 5 . 6 . 7 and 10 ). The working position 14 is produced by the grip sleeve 10 is moved from the rest position 12 in the direction of the rear end 16 of the shaft 4. The grip sleeve 10 extends therein over a longitudinal region of the shaft 4, which serves to hold the applicator device 2. Thus, the grip sleeve 10 has two functions. On the one hand, it serves as a handle and thus to hold the Applicator 2 and on the other to protect the applicator element 8 when not working with the applicator 2, so for example during its transport or for safe storage. There are thus no separate, loose parts necessary that can be lost accidentally.

Damit sich die Griffhülse 10 in der Ruhestellung 12 bzw. in der Arbeitsstellung 14 nicht in ungewünschter Weise lösen kann, ist diese jeweils durch eine lösbare Rastverbindung an dem Schaft 4 in Axialrichtung fixierbar.Thus, the handle sleeve 10 in the rest position 12 and in the working position 14 can not solve in an undesirable manner, this is in each case fixed by a releasable locking connection to the shaft 4 in the axial direction.

Zur Herbeiführung dieser Rastverbindung in der Ruhestellung 12 weist das vordere Ende 6 des Schafts 4 eine erste Rastnase 18 auf, die aus der Oberfläche des Schafts 4 hervorsteht, wie insbesondere aus Fig. 9 entnehmbar. Die erste Rastnase 18 wird in der Ruhestellung 12 von einem an der Innenseite der Griffhülse 10 angeformten Rastelement 20 hintergriffen, so dass zwischen Griffhülse 10 und Schaft 4 in Axialrichtung eine formschlüssige Verbindung entsteht.To bring about this latching connection in the rest position 12, the front end 6 of the shaft 4 has a first latching lug 18, which protrudes from the surface of the shaft 4, as in particular from Fig. 9 removable. The first detent 18 is engaged behind in the rest position 12 by a molded-in on the inside of the grip sleeve 10 locking element 20, so that between the grip sleeve 10 and shaft 4 in the axial direction, a positive connection.

Zur Herbeiführung der Rastverbindung in der Arbeitsstellung 14 weist das hintere Ende 16 des Schafts 4 eine zweite Rastnase 26 auf, die ebenfalls aus der Oberfläche des Schafts 4 hervorsteht und insbesondere aus den Fig. 4, 6 und 7 hervorgeht. In der Arbeitsstellung 14 wird dann die zweite Rastnase 26 von demselben Rastelement 20 der Griffhülse 10 hintergriffen, so dass auch hier eine formschlüssige Verbindung zwischen Griffhülse 10 und Schaft 4 hergestellt wird.To bring about the latching connection in the working position 14, the rear end 16 of the shaft 4 has a second latching lug 26, which also protrudes from the surface of the shaft 4 and in particular from the Fig. 4, 6 and 7 evident. In the working position 14, the second latching lug 26 is then engaged behind by the same latching element 20 of the grip sleeve 10, so that here also a positive connection between the grip sleeve 10 and shaft 4 is produced.

Prinzipiell könnten die erste Rastnase 18 und die zweite Rastnase 26 in gleicher Art und Weise ausgeprägt sein. Im Ausführungsbeispiel steht jedoch die zweite Rastnase 26 weiter aus der Oberfläche des Schafts 4 hervor als die erste Rastnase 18. Durch die geringere Ausprägung der ersten Rastnase 18 wird erreicht, dass die Rastverbindung, die die Ruhestellung 12 gewährleistet, lediglich durch eine durch Axialkräfte bedingte Verformung der Griffhülse 10 lösbar ist.In principle, the first latching lug 18 and the second latching lug 26 could be pronounced in the same way. in the Embodiment, however, the second locking lug 26 further protrudes from the surface of the shaft 4 than the first locking lug 18. Due to the lower expression of the first latching lug 18 ensures that the latching connection, which ensures the rest position 12, only by a deformation caused by axial forces Grip sleeve 10 is releasable.

In der Arbeitsstellung 14 wird jedoch die Griffhülse 10 bereits durch das Auftragen des Mediums zeitweisen Axialkräften ausgesetzt. Um dann zu vermeiden, dass durch derartige Kräfte die Griffhülse 10 unbeabsichtigt und unerwünschter Weise aus der Arbeitsstellung 14 gelöst wird, steht die zweite Rastnase 26 soweit aus der Oberfläche des Schafts 4 hervor, dass die Rastverbindung zweckmäßigerweise mittels eines am hinteren Ende 22 der Griffhülse 10 angeformten Betätigungselements 28 gelöst werden kann.In the working position 14, however, the grip sleeve 10 is already exposed by the application of the medium temporary axial forces. In order to avoid that by such forces the grip sleeve 10 is inadvertently and undesirably released from the working position 14, the second locking lug 26 so far from the surface of the shaft 4 shows that the locking connection advantageously by means of a at the rear end 22 of the grip sleeve 10th molded actuator 28 can be solved.

Dieses Betätigungselement 28 ist durch in die Griffhülse eingebrachten Schlitz 30 freigeschnitten, der sich in einer Ebene erstreckt, die mit einer die Längsachse des Auftragsgerätes 2 enthaltende Ebene einen spitzen Winkel einschließt und somit eine Bogenform aufweist. Damit ein weiteres Einreißen der Griffhülse 10 in der Verlängerung des Schlitzes 30 vermieden wird, sind die beiden Enden des Schlitzes 30 abgerundet. Der Schlitz 30 trennt das hintere Ende 22 der Griffhülse 10 nicht vollständig von dieser ab. Vielmehr verbleibt zur Verbindung des vom Schlitz 30 aus gesehen weiter in Richtung des hinteren Endes 22 der Griffhülse 10 angeformten Rastelements ein Steg 31. Wird dann in der Arbeitsstellung 14 ein Druck auf das Betätigungselement 28 ausgeübt, so wird durch eine Hebelwirkung des Betätigungselements 28 das Rastelement 20 angehoben und somit die Rastverbindung gelöst. Durch Ausüben einer zusätzlichen Kraft in Axialrichtung kann dann die Griffhülse 10 in Richtung zum vorderen Ende 6 des Schafts 4 bewegt werden kann, so dass damit die Ruhestellung 12 erreicht wird.This actuator 28 is cut free by introduced into the grip sleeve slot 30 which extends in a plane which includes an acute angle with a longitudinal axis of the applicator 2 containing plane and thus has an arcuate shape. So that a further tearing of the grip sleeve 10 in the extension of the slot 30 is avoided, the two ends of the slot 30 are rounded. The slot 30 does not completely separate the rear end 22 of the grip sleeve 10 from this. Rather, remains for connection of the slit 30 seen from further in the direction of the rear end 22 of the grip sleeve 10 integrally formed locking element a web 31. If then in the working position 14 exerted pressure on the actuating element 28, then by a lever action of the actuating element 28, the locking element 20 raised and thus solved the locking connection. By exercising an additional Force in the axial direction then the grip sleeve 10 can be moved in the direction of the front end 6 of the shaft 4, so that thus the rest position 12 is reached.

Im Ausführungsbeispiel wird der Schaft 4 aus einem vorderen Schaftabschnitt 32 sowie einem hinteren Schaftabschnitt 34 und deren Übergang durch eine zum hinteren Schaftende 16 weisende Radialschulter 36 gebildet. Die beiden Schaftabschnitte 32,34 sind im Ausführungsbeispiel separate Teile, wobei der vordere Schaftabschnitt 32 auf den hinteren Schaftabschnitt 34 aufgesteckt ist. Eine entsprechende Fixierung der beiden Schaftabschnitte wird durch auf der Innenfläche des vorderen Schaftabschnittes 32 und der Außenfläche des hinteren Schaftabschnittes 34 ausgebildeten Rastelementen 38 gewährleistet, die einen Formschluss zwischen den beiden Schaftabschnitten 32,34 bilden. Die Radialschulter 36 dient als Anschlag, sodass ein Anschlagselement 40 auf der Innenseite der Griffhülse 10 in der Ruhestellung 12 an der Radialschulter 36 anliegt. Dadurch wird verhindert, dass die Griffhülse 10 über das Auftragselement 8 hinaus und somit von dem Auftragsgerät 2 abgezogen werden kann.In the exemplary embodiment, the shaft 4 is formed from a front shaft portion 32 and a rear shaft portion 34 and the transition thereof through a radial shoulder 36 facing the rear shaft end 16. The two shaft sections 32, 34 are separate parts in the exemplary embodiment, the front shaft section 32 being attached to the rear shaft section 34. A corresponding fixation of the two shaft sections is ensured by locking elements 38 formed on the inner surface of the front shaft section 32 and the outer surface of the rear shaft section 34, which form a positive connection between the two shaft sections 32, 34. The radial shoulder 36 serves as a stop, so that a stop element 40 rests on the inside of the grip sleeve 10 in the rest position 12 on the radial shoulder 36. This prevents that the grip sleeve 10 beyond the applicator element 8 and thus can be deducted from the applicator device 2.

Zur Führung der Griffhülse 10 auf dem Weg von der Arbeitsstellung 14 in die Ruhestellung 12 ist die Außenkontur eines sich an die Radialschulter 36 angrenzenden Längsbereiches 42 des vorderen Schaftabschnittes 32 komplementär zur Innenkontur der Griffhülse 10 ausgestaltet, wie die aus der Querschnittsansicht gemäß Fig. 13 hervorgeht. Es entsteht dadurch eine Gleitverbindung zwischen der Griffhülse 10 und dem vorderen Schaftabschnitt 32.To guide the grip sleeve 10 on the way from the working position 14 to the rest position 12, the outer contour of an adjacent to the radial shoulder 36 longitudinal portion 42 of the front shaft portion 32 is complementary to the inner contour of the grip sleeve 10 configured as shown in the cross-sectional view Fig. 13 evident. This results in a sliding connection between the grip sleeve 10 and the front shaft portion 32nd

Die Griffhülse 10 weist an ihrem hinteren Ende 22 auf Ihrer Innenseite einen radial nach innen vorstehenden Bund 44 auf. Dieser Bund 44 dient gleichzeitig als Anschlagselement 40. Des Weiteren weist dieser Bund 44 eine von einer Kreisform abweichenden Ausgestaltung auf, wie es Fig. 11 zu entnehmen ist. Dies trifft ebenso auf den hinteren Schaftabschnitt 34 zu. Da die Innenkontur des Bunds 44 und die Außenkontur komplementär geformt sind, und diese Form eine von einer Kreisform abweichende Ausgestaltung aufweist, wird dadurch eine Drehfixierung der Griffhülse 10 gegenüber dem Schaft 4 erreicht. Während einer Axialverschiebung der Griffhülse 10 zwischen der Ruhestellung 12 und der Arbeitsstellung 14 wird die Griffhülse 10 einerseits durch die komplementäre Ausgestaltung von Griffhülse 10 und des sich an die Radialschulter 36 angrenzenden Längsbereiches 42 des vorderen Schaftabschnittes 32 sowie durch den Bund 44 und die komplementäre Ausgestaltung des hinteren Schaftabschnitts 34 geführt. Um ein Entlanggleiten der Griffhülse auf dem der Radialschulter 36 angrenzenden Längsbereiches 42 des vorderen Schaftabschnittes 32 zu ermöglichen, ist der Innendurchmesser der Griffhülse 10 derart bemessen, dass zwischen Griffhülse 10 und hinterem Schaftabschnitt 34 ein Ringspalt 48 gebildet ist, wie es in Fig. 12 ersichtlich ist. Dieser Ringspalt ist nach vorne durch die Radialschulter 36 und nach hinten durch den Bund 44 begrenzt. Der Bund 44 hat somit insgesamt drei Funktionen. Er dient zur Drehfixierung der Griffhülse 10 gegenüber dem Schaft 4, zur Führung der Griffhülse 10 und als Anschlagselement 40.The grip sleeve 10 has at its rear end 22 on its inside a radially inwardly projecting collar 44. This collar 44 also serves as a stop element 40. Furthermore, this collar 44 has a deviating from a circular configuration, as it Fig. 11 can be seen. This also applies to the rear shaft portion 34. Since the inner contour of the collar 44 and the outer contour are complementarily shaped, and this shape has a deviating from a circular configuration, thereby a rotational fixation of the grip sleeve 10 relative to the shaft 4 is achieved. During an axial displacement of the grip sleeve 10 between the rest position 12 and the working position 14, the grip sleeve 10 on the one hand by the complementary configuration of grip sleeve 10 and the radial shoulder 36 adjacent longitudinal portion 42 of the front shaft portion 32 and by the collar 44 and the complementary configuration of rear shaft portion 34 out. In order to enable the grip sleeve to slide along on the longitudinal region 42 of the front shank portion 32 adjacent to the radial shoulder 36, the inner diameter of the grip sleeve 10 is dimensioned such that an annular gap 48 is formed between the grip sleeve 10 and the rear shank portion 34, as shown in FIG Fig. 12 is apparent. This annular gap is bounded to the front by the radial shoulder 36 and to the rear by the collar 44. The federal government 44 thus has a total of three functions. It serves to rotationally fix the grip sleeve 10 relative to the shaft 4, to guide the grip sleeve 10 and as a stop element 40th

Die Griffhülse 10 ist weiterhin ergonomisch geformt, so dass sie ein ermüdungsfreies Arbeiten ermöglicht. Um ein Abrutschen von der Griffhülse 10 zu vermeiden, ist diese dazu an ihrem vorderen Ende 46 trichterförmig nach außen erweitert.The grip sleeve 10 is further ergonomically shaped so that it allows fatigue-free working. In order to avoid slippage of the grip sleeve 10, this is expanded funnel-shaped at its front end 46 to the outside.
