- the lid of the underfloor box can be removed in a simple manner, namely by the pivot pin and the journal bearing are brought into the release position.
- an electrician can thus in a very simple way remove the lid completely, so that the interior of the underfloor box is easily accessible. Since the lid is completely removed, the electrician does not have to worry about the lid falling off in an uncontrolled manner during the work.
- a releasable hinge which is characterized by the displaceability of at least one pivot pin and at least one journal bearing relative to each other parallel to the pivot axis between an engagement position and a release position, it is possible in a surprisingly simple manner, a very good accessibility of the interior of the underfloor device box during installation work to enable.
- the hinge has a hinge member on which the at least one pivot pin or the at least one journal bearing are arranged, wherein the hinge member has at least two components which are displaceable parallel to the pivot axis.
- the two displaceable components of the hinge member can preferably be compressed by hand without tools in order to solve the hinge member and thus the lid in a simple manner. It is possible, the hinge member in such a way that it both can be solved by the lid and the housing of the underfloor box. This facilitates the assembly of the underfloor box.
- the hinge member can be formed so that it dissolves in a relative displacement of the two components only from the lid or only from the housing of the underfloor box. This has the advantage of a captive arrangement of the hinge.
- the two components of the hinge member which are displaceable relative to one another are formed identically to one another.
- the hinge member consists essentially of two identical components and can be constructed inexpensively.
- the two relatively displaceable components of the hinge member are each provided with at least one pivot pin or journal bearing.
- hinge member is articulated pivotably with two relatively displaceable components on the lid and / or on the housing of the underfloor equipment box.
- one or the other component may then first be unhooked from the cover and / or the housing. This facilitates handling of the underfloor appliance box according to the invention.
- the two components of the hinge member which are displaceable relative to one another are each provided with two pivot pins or journal bearings, wherein the pivot pins or journal bearings define two different pivot axes.
- the hinge in a structurally simple design of the hinge or the hinge member, a linkage of the lid to the housing of the underfloor box over two pivot axes can be realized.
- the hinge can be arranged invisibly for a user when the lid is closed and yet it is possible to fit lid and housing with very tight tolerances. Since each of the two components of the hinge member each having two pivot pin or journal bearing, the hinge member can be posted simultaneously on both pivot axes on the cover and the housing. This also facilitates the handling of the underfloor device box according to the invention.
- the hinge has at least one compression spring, wherein the compression spring is arranged between the two components of the hinge member which are displaceable relative to one another.
- the hinge can be biased in a very simple manner in the engaged position, so that a safe use of the underfloor device box according to the invention is ensured.
- the two components which are displaceable relative to one another each have at least one guide pin and / or at least one bore matching the guide pin, wherein the guide pin and bore are arranged parallel to the at least one pivot pin or journal bearing.
- the hinge member may consist at least in sections of fiber-reinforced plastic or die-cast zinc.
- the formation of the hinge member at least partially made of fiber-reinforced plastic or die-cast zinc allows its production in large numbers.
- the hinge member can be designed so that it can withstand high loads and in particular bending moments during opening, closing and installation and removal of the lid.
- the at least one journal bearing on a slot-like bearing bore is provided.
- the provision of a slot-like bearing bore allows a play-related training of the hinge. This makes it possible to deviate slightly when closing and opening the lid of a pure pivoting movement about the pivot axes. Thereby, the lid can be fitted with very small tolerances in the housing, without the hinge must be designed so that it allows a defined displacement movement of the lid relative to the housing.
- the underfloor appliance box according to the invention can thereby fulfill all required functions without problems and yet be formed inexpensively.
- the slot-like bearing bore has a semi-circular end adapted to the diameter of the bearing journal and the slot-like bearing bore widens starting from the semicircular end.
- the bearing bore can be produced in a simple manner by plastic injection molding.
- the bearing bore can be formed in this way in a plastic injection molded part without the use of slides in the injection mold.
- the expanding slot-like bearing bore facilitates demolding.
- the at least one journal bearing is formed by means of a U-like bearing bracket.
- journal bearing can be achieved, which can be carried out, for example, by means of plastic injection molding.
- a U-type bearing bracket is a little pollution-sensitive bearing, which is a significant advantage especially for underfloor device boxes, which are used at ground level.
- the U-type bearing bracket has a separating slot approximately in the region of its base.
- the hinge has two spaced, parallel pivot axes, with a hinge member extending between the two pivot axes, and at least one stop is provided to define an end position of the hinge member and / or the lid.
- the hinge member and / or the lid By providing such a stop it can be ensured that the hinge member and / or the lid always fall back into a defined starting position, which may correspond to the closing position.
- the example of the hinge member can be prevented for example by a rash that this falls radially inwards. Instead, it is ensured that the hinge member, following gravity, upon release of the lid to the outside, falls back in the direction of its closed position.
- the hinge defines two mutually parallel pivot axes, wherein the second pivot axis is disposed adjacent to an underside of the lid and wherein the first pivot axis arranged on the housing and in installation position of the underfloor device box and with the lid closed both in the vertical direction and in the horizontal direction is spaced from the second pivot axis.
- a hinge member is thereby obliquely when the lid is fully closed, wherein the second, arranged on the housing pivot axis advantageously relative to the first, arranged on the lid pivot axis inwardly, to a center of the housing, is offset.
- the hinge member is arranged with the lid closed at an angle between 40 ° and 50 ° to an upper side of the lid. In this way, the opening of the lid can be effected, although an upper side of the lid is in the closed state aligned with an upper side of the housing.
- the lid is fitted with small tolerances in the pot-like upper part of the housing to prevent moisture and / or contamination with the lid closed in the interior of the underfloor box penetrates.
- it can also be provided to provide a seal against the ingress of moisture between the lid and the housing.
- the presentation of the Fig. 1 shows an underfloor appliance box 10 according to the invention.
- the underfloor appliance box 10 has a housing 12 and a lid 14.

- a likewise encircling, approximately annular wall 18 connects, which then merges into a bottom edge 20, wherein the peripheral edge 16, the wall 18 and the bottom edge 20 define an approximately pot-like upper part of the housing 12.
- the lid 14 is also substantially annular in shape and has a circumferential wall 22, which is then arranged parallel to the wall 18 of the housing 12 in the closed state.
- the lid 14 and the housing 12 are by means of a Hinge member 24 pivotally connected to each other.
- the hinge member 24 consists of two relatively displaceable components 26, 28, wherein the components 26, 28 in the illustration of Fig. 1 can be moved towards each other. In her in Fig. 1 shown engaged position, the components 26, 28 are biased by a compression spring 30.
- the presentation of the Fig. 2 shows the underfloor device box 10 of Fig. 1 in sections and with the lid 14 fully open.
- the lid 14 is aligned approximately perpendicular to the housing 12 in the fully open position. Stops 32 limit a pivoting angle of the hinge member 24, so that this is not inward, in Fig. 2 down to the left, can fold.
- the housing 12 is provided with two U-shaped bearing brackets 34, in the in Fig. 2 unrecognizable hinge pin of the hinge member 24 engage.
- the two bearing brackets 34 thereby define a first pivot axis about which the hinge member 24 can rotate.

- the lid 14 can be removed from the housing 12 in a very simple manner.
- the two components 26, 28 of the hinge member 24 can be compressed with two fingers of one hand, while the other hand holds the lid 14 in the open position.
- For installation or maintenance of the lid 14 can thus be easily and quickly removed from the housing 12. After removing the lid 14 is the entire interior of the housing 12 freely accessible, for example, to perform installation or maintenance or to install the housing 12 first in a matching recess in a floor.
- FIG. 4 shows a sectional sectional view of the Unterformuerdose 10 of Fig. 1 ,
- the lid 14 is shown in the fully closed state, in which therefore an upper side 50 of the lid 14 is arranged in alignment with a top 52 of the housing 12.
- the upper side 52 of the housing 12 is formed by an annular surface on the peripheral edge 16.
- a guide rod 54 of the component 28 extends through a guide rod 54 of the component 28 and through the compression spring 30.
- a guide rod 56 extends into a guide bore 58 in the component 28 inside.
- the two components 26, 28 are identical.
- the guide rods 54, 56 are each arranged parallel to the two pivot axes about which the hinge member 24 can rotate relative to the cover 14 or relative to the housing 12.
- the stops 32 restrict movement of the hinge member 24 in Fig. 4 counterclockwise and thereby ensure that the hinge member 24 does not fold in the direction of the interior of the underfloor device box 10, ie radially inwardly.
- An approximately rectangular recess 60 on the hinge member 24 only serves to provide space for the anchoring of a detent conductor, not shown, on the housing 12.
- the two components 26, 28 of the hinge member 24 are made of fiber-reinforced plastic or Zinkdurckguss.
- the guide rods 54, 58 may be made of either fiber reinforced plastic or metal.
- the guide rod 56 of the component 26 extends into a suitable guide bore 58 of the component 28 and the guide rod 54 of the component 28 extends into the matching guide bore 62 in the component 26.
- the components 26, 28 are identical to each other and each have a first pivot pin 40 and a second pivot pin 42.
- the pivot pins 40 on the components 26, 28 are in the assembled state of the hinge member 24, as in Fig. 5 is shown aligned with each other and define, see Fig. 3 , together with the bearing brackets 34 on the housing 12, the first pivot axis.
- the presentation of the Fig. 6 shows the hinge member 24 with the two components 26, 28 in the extended state.
- the compression spring 30 is received in each of the components 26, 28 in a spring bore 64 and thereby extends a little way into the components 26, 28 into it.
- the spring 30 is thereby safely received in the components 26, 28.
- the two components 26, 28 are moved toward each other until the state of Fig. 5 is reached and thus the guide rod 54 of the component 28 in the guide bore 62 of the component 26 engages and the guide rod 56 of the component 26 engages in the guide bore 58 of the component 28. Based on the state of Fig. 5 the two components 26, 28 are then moved further toward each other until the mutually facing end faces of the components 26, 28 abut each other, as in Fig. 3 is shown. In this, compressed state, which corresponds to a release position, the hinge member 24 can then be used in each case one of the bearing bracket 34, 38 on the housing 12 and the cover 14.
- FIG. 7 shows a plan view of the inventive Unterfluroaradose 10 of Fig. 1 with fully closed lid 14.
- Fig. 7 A section VIII-VIII can be seen.
- the section VIII-VIII passes through the in Fig. 3 each bearing bracket 34, 38 shown on the housing 12 and on the lid 14.
- the bearing bracket 34 can be seen on the housing 12 in which the Gelenkzapfen40 of the component 26 is received.
- the lid 14 is in the state of Fig. 8 completely closed, so that its top 50 is disposed parallel to the top 52 of the housing 12 and the lid 14 is thus received in the cup-shaped upper part of the housing 12.
- the bearing bracket 34 is formed by two legs 66, 68 which are formed elastically and are separated from each other by the separating slot 36. Acts on the pivot pin 40 in Fig. 8 upwards, strong force, the pivot pin 40 presses the two legs 66, 68 apart and can thereby move out of the bearing bracket 34.
- the force required to move the pivot pin 40 out of the bearing bracket 34 in this way is dimensioned such that it is far above the forces usually occurring during opening and closing of the cover 14, but is still below a force at which the pivot pin 40 shears off the component 26.
- the hinge member 24 can thereby be separated from the housing 12 without fear of damaging the hinge member 24 or the housing 12 when an operator intentionally or unintentionally engages excessive forces on the cover 14.
- the bearing bracket 34 has a semicircular shaped end, in which in the illustration of Fig. 8 the pivot pin 40 is arranged. Starting from this semicircular end region extends a bearing bore in the bearing bracket 34. As in Fig. 8 can be seen, a lower end of the component 26 is formed semicircular, so it runs parallel to an outer side of the pivot pin 40 and rests on a bottom surface 70 of the housing 12. The pivot pin 40 thereby remains even with a pivoting movement of the component 26 and the hinge member 24 in the in Fig. 8 position shown.
- Bearing surfaces of the hinge bearing are thus formed on the one hand by an outer side of the pivot pin 40 and the semi-circular end portion of the bearing bracket 34 and on the other hand by the semicircular lower end of the component 26 and the bottom surface 70 of the housing 12.
- the mounting of the component 26 with the pivot pin 42 in the bearing bracket 38 on the cover 14 is formed in the same way.
- the housing 12 below the bearing bracket 34 has a passage opening.
- the bearing bracket 34 can thereby removed from the mold after injection molding of the housing 12 in a simple manner be and especially the injection mold for the production of the bearing bracket 34 can do without slider.
- Fig. 8 the bearing bracket 38 can be seen on the cover 14, in which the pivot pin 42 of the component 26 is received.
- the bearing bracket 38 is U-shaped and unlike the bearing bracket 34 is not provided with a separating slot. In case of excessive use of force on the lid 14 thus the hinge member 24 will only solve the housing 12, but not from the lid 14.
- the bearing bracket 38 is therefore designed so stable that it is not deformed or not damaged at a force sufficient to move the pivot pin 40 from the bearing bracket 34 on the housing 12 out.
- the bearing bracket 38 has a bearing bore with a semicircular end, in which in the state of Fig. 8 the pivot pin 42 is located. Starting from this semicircular end of the bearing bore widens in the bearing bracket 38. One end of the component 26 is semicircular and thereby arranged parallel to an outer side of the pivot pin 42. This semicircular end of the component 26 rests on an underside 72 of the lid 14. Even with a pivoting movement of the cover 14 relative to the hinge member 24, the pivot pin 42 thereby remains in the region of the semicircular end of the bearing bracket 38th
- the hinge member 24 is arranged at fully closed lid at an angle of about 45 ° obliquely to a top 50 of the lid 14.
- the hinge member 24 can thereby gradually rise, in the illustration of FIG Fig. 8 turn counterclockwise.
- the lid 14 in the illustration of Fig. 8 shifted a bit to the left and thus comes in the area of his in Fig. 8 right end of the case 12 free.
- a first pivot axis 44 which is defined by the pivot pin 40 and the bearing bracket 34 on the housing 12, is located just above the surface 70 on the housing 12.
- the first pivot axis 44 is thereby spaced from the top 52 of the housing 12 in the vertical direction.
- the first pivot axis 44 is spaced in the radial direction from an outer side of the housing 12 or the circumferential wall 18 of the housing 12 and, in contrast, is offset inwards.
- the second pivot axis 46 which is defined by the pivot pin 42 and the U-bracket 38 on the lid 14 is disposed below the top 50 of the lid 14 and radially offset from an outer edge of the lid 14 inwardly. Compared to the first pivot axis 44, the second pivot axis 46 but less far inwardly offset, so that in the in Fig. 8 illustrated closed position of the lid 14, the hinge member 24, which connects the first and the second pivot axis 44, 46, is arranged at an angle of 45 ° to the top of the lid 14.
- the first pivot axis 44 on the housing 12 is arranged below the cover 14 which is in the closed position, so that a length of the hinge member 24 is greater than a height of the cover 14.
- FIG. 9 shows a plan view of the invention Unterfluroaradose 10 with partially opened lid 14.
- a recess 76 can be seen for a cord outlet, which is pivotally hinged to the lid 14. Even with the cover 14 closed, leads can be led into the interior of the underfloor device box 10 when the cord outlet is open.
- Fig. 9 In the plan view of Fig. 9 is a sectional line XX drawn, which is positioned relative to the underfloor device box 10 the same as the section line VIII-VIII in Fig. 7 ,
- FIG. 10 shows a view of the sectioning XX in Fig. 9 , It can be seen that the cover 14 is partially open, so that its upper side 50 is at an angle of approximately 45 ° to an upper side 52 of the housing 12. An angle between the top 50 of the lid 14 and the hinge member 24 is now greater than when the lid is fully closed, see Fig. 8 , With the lid completely closed, as in Fig. 8 is shown, an angle between the hinge member 24 and the top 50 of the lid 14 is about 50 °, whereas with partially opened lid, as in Fig. 10 is shown, this angle is more than 90 °, especially about 100 °.
- the presentation of the Fig. 11 shows the underfloor device box 10 of Fig. 1 in a plan view with the lid 14 fully open.
- Fig. 11 a section XII-XII is shown, which is arranged relative to the underfloor device box 10 the same as the section line VIII-VIII in Fig. 7 and XX in Fig. 9 ,
- Fig. 12 shows a view of the cutting path XII-XII Fig. 11 ,
- the lid 14 is now in its fully open position, in which its upper side 50 is arranged approximately parallel to the hinge member 24.
- the top 50 of the lid 14 and a median plane of the hinge member 24 passing through the first and second pivotal axes 44, 46 are disposed at an angle of about 175 ° to 178 °.
- the second pivot axis 46 is located in the in Fig. 12 shown fully open position of the lid 14 approximately at the level of the top 52 of the housing 12th
- the hinge member 24 To the surface 70 on the housing 12, which is parallel to the top 52 of the housing 12, but arranged opposite to this inwardly offset, takes the hinge member 24 at an angle of slightly less than 90 °, in particular about 85 ° to 88 °.

Erfindungsgemäß ist hierzu eine Unterflurgerätedose für elektrische Installationsgeräte mit einem Gehäuse, einem Deckel und einem das Gehäuse und den Deckel verbindenden Scharnier vorgesehen, wobei das Scharnier wenigstens eine Schwenkachse definiert, bei dem wenigstens ein Gelenkzapfen und ein zum Gelenkzapfen passendes Zapfenlager vorgesehen sind, wobei der Gelenkzapfen und das Zapfenlager relativ zueinander parallel zur Schwenkachse zwischen einer Eingreifposition und einer Freigabeposition verschiebbar sind.According to the invention for this purpose an underfloor device box for electrical installation equipment with a housing, a lid and a hinge connecting the housing and the cover is provided, wherein the hinge defines at least one pivot axis, in which at least one pivot pin and a pivot pin matching journal bearing are provided, wherein the pivot pin and the journal bearing are displaceable relative to each other parallel to the pivot axis between an engagement position and a release position.
Durch diese Maßnahmen kann der Deckel der Unterflurgerätedose in einfacher Weise abgenommen werden, indem nämlich der Gelenkzapfen und das Zapfenlager in die Freigabeposition gebracht werden. Beim Einbauen der Installationsgeräte, bei Umbau- oder Wartungsarbeiten kann ein Elektriker somit in sehr einfacher Weise den Deckel vollständig abnehmen, so dass der Innenraum der Unterflurgerätedose dadurch problemlos zugänglich ist. Da der Deckel vollständig abgenommen wird, muss der Elektriker auch nicht befürchten, dass der Deckel in unkontrollierter Weise während der Arbeiten zufällt. Durch den Einsatz eines lösbaren Scharniers, das sich durch die Verschiebbarkeit wenigstens eines Gelenkzapfens und wenigstens eines Zapfenlagers relativ zueinander parallel zur Schwenkachse zwischen einer Eingreifposition und einer Freigabeposition auszeichnet, wird es in überraschend einfacher Weise möglich, eine sehr gute Zugänglichkeit des Innenraums der Unterflurgerätedose bei Installationsarbeiten zu ermöglichen.By these measures, the lid of the underfloor box can be removed in a simple manner, namely by the pivot pin and the journal bearing are brought into the release position. When installing the installation equipment during conversion or maintenance, an electrician can thus in a very simple way remove the lid completely, so that the interior of the underfloor box is easily accessible. Since the lid is completely removed, the electrician does not have to worry about the lid falling off in an uncontrolled manner during the work. By using a releasable hinge, which is characterized by the displaceability of at least one pivot pin and at least one journal bearing relative to each other parallel to the pivot axis between an engagement position and a release position, it is possible in a surprisingly simple manner, a very good accessibility of the interior of the underfloor device box during installation work to enable.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist das Scharnier ein Scharnierglied auf, an dem der wenigstens eine Gelenkzapfen oder das wenigstens eine Zapfenlager angeordnet sind, wobei das Scharnierglied wenigstens zwei relativ zueinander parallel zur Schwenkachse verschiebbare Bauteile aufweist.In a further development of the invention, the hinge has a hinge member on which the at least one pivot pin or the at least one journal bearing are arranged, wherein the hinge member has at least two components which are displaceable parallel to the pivot axis.
Auf diese Weise lässt sich eine Verschiebung des Gelenkzapfens und des Zapfenlagers relativ zueinander in einfacher Weise realisieren. Die beiden verschiebbaren Bauteile des Scharnierglieds lassen sich vorzugsweise werkzeuglos von Hand zusammendrücken, um das Scharnierglied und damit den Deckel in einfacher Weise lösen zu können. Es ist dabei möglich, das Scharnierglied so auszubilden, dass es sowohl vom Deckel als auch vom Gehäuse der Unterflurgerätedose gelöst werden kann. Dies erleichtert den Zusammenbau der Unterflurgerätedose. Alternativ kann das Scharnierglied so ausgebildet werden, dass es sich bei einer Relativverschiebung der beiden Bauteile nur vom Deckel oder nur vom Gehäuse der Unterflurgerätedose löst. Dies hat den Vorteil einer unverlierbaren Anordnung des Scharniers.In this way, a displacement of the pivot pin and the journal bearing can be realized relative to each other in a simple manner. The two displaceable components of the hinge member can preferably be compressed by hand without tools in order to solve the hinge member and thus the lid in a simple manner. It is possible, the hinge member in such a way that it both can be solved by the lid and the housing of the underfloor box. This facilitates the assembly of the underfloor box. Alternatively, the hinge member can be formed so that it dissolves in a relative displacement of the two components only from the lid or only from the housing of the underfloor box. This has the advantage of a captive arrangement of the hinge.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung sind die beiden relativ zueinander verschiebbaren Bauteile des Scharnierglieds identisch zueinander ausgebildet.In a further development of the invention, the two components of the hinge member which are displaceable relative to one another are formed identically to one another.
Auf diese Weise kann die Anzahl der erforderlichen Bauteile reduziert werden. Beispielsweise besteht das Scharnierglied im Wesentlichen aus zwei identischen Bauteilen und kann dadurch kostengünstig aufgebaut werden.In this way, the number of required components can be reduced. For example, the hinge member consists essentially of two identical components and can be constructed inexpensively.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung sind die beiden relativ zueinander verschiebbaren Bauteile des Scharnierglieds jeweils mit wenigstens einem Gelenkzapfen oder Zapfenlager versehen.In a further development of the invention, the two relatively displaceable components of the hinge member are each provided with at least one pivot pin or journal bearing.
Auch auf diese Weise wird ein konstruktiv einfacher Aufbau des Scharnierglieds möglich, da dieses mit beiden relativ zueinander verschiebbaren Bauteilen an dem Deckel und/oder an dem Gehäuse der Unterflurgerätedose schwenkbar angelenkt ist. Je nach Einbausituation kann dann beispielsweise das eine oder das andere Bauteil zuerst aus dem Deckel und/oder dem Gehäuse ausgehängt werden. Dies erleichtert die Handhabung der erfindungsgemäßen Unterflurgerätedose.In this way, a structurally simple construction of the hinge member is possible, since this is articulated pivotably with two relatively displaceable components on the lid and / or on the housing of the underfloor equipment box. Depending on the installation situation, for example, one or the other component may then first be unhooked from the cover and / or the housing. This facilitates handling of the underfloor appliance box according to the invention.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung sind die beiden relativ zueinander verschiebbaren Bauteile des Scharnierglieds jeweils mit zwei Gelenkzapfen oder Zapfenlagern versehen, wobei die Gelenkzapfen oder Zapfenlager zwei unterschiedliche Schwenkachsen definieren.In a further development of the invention, the two components of the hinge member which are displaceable relative to one another are each provided with two pivot pins or journal bearings, wherein the pivot pins or journal bearings define two different pivot axes.
Auf diese Weise kann bei konstruktiv einfacher Ausbildung des Scharnier bzw. des Scharnierglieds eine Anlenkung des Deckels an dem Gehäuse der Unterflurgerätedose über zwei Schwenkachsen realisiert werden. Durch Vorsehen zweier Schwenkachsen kann das Scharnier bei geschlossenem Deckel unsichtbar für einen Benutzer angeordnet werden und dennoch ist es möglich, Deckel und Gehäuse mit sehr geringen Toleranzen ineinander einzupassen. Da jedes der beiden Bauteile des Scharnierglieds jeweils zwei Gelenkzapfen oder Zapfenlager aufweist, kann das Scharnierglied gleichzeitig an beiden Schwenkachsen am Deckel und am Gehäuse ausgehängt werden. Auch dies erleichtert die Handhabung der erfindungsgemäßen Unterflurgerätedose.In this way, in a structurally simple design of the hinge or the hinge member, a linkage of the lid to the housing of the underfloor box over two pivot axes can be realized. By providing two pivot axes, the hinge can be arranged invisibly for a user when the lid is closed and yet it is possible to fit lid and housing with very tight tolerances. Since each of the two components of the hinge member each having two pivot pin or journal bearing, the hinge member can be posted simultaneously on both pivot axes on the cover and the housing. This also facilitates the handling of the underfloor device box according to the invention.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist das Scharnier wenigstens eine Druckfeder auf, wobei die Druckfeder zwischen den beiden relativ zueinander verschiebbaren Bauteilen des Scharnierglieds angeordnet ist.In a further development of the invention, the hinge has at least one compression spring, wherein the compression spring is arranged between the two components of the hinge member which are displaceable relative to one another.
Mittels einer Druckfeder lässt sich das Scharnier in sehr einfacher Weise in die Eingreifposition vorspannen, so dass ein sicherer Gebrauch der erfindungsgemäßen Unterflurgerätedose sichergestellt ist.By means of a compression spring, the hinge can be biased in a very simple manner in the engaged position, so that a safe use of the underfloor device box according to the invention is ensured.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung weisen die beiden relativ zueinander verschiebbaren Bauteile jeweils wenigstens einen Führungsstift und/oder wenigstens eine zum Führungsstift passende Bohrung auf, wobei Führungsstift und Bohrung parallel zu dem wenigstens einen Gelenkzapfen oder Zapfenlager angeordnet sind.In a further development of the invention, the two components which are displaceable relative to one another each have at least one guide pin and / or at least one bore matching the guide pin, wherein the guide pin and bore are arranged parallel to the at least one pivot pin or journal bearing.
Auf diese Weise können die beiden Bauteile während einer Relativverschiebung von Gelenkzapfen und Zapfenlager aneinander geführt werden. Das Vorsehen eines Führungsstiftes und einer passenden Bohrung stellt dabei eine konstruktiv einfache, betriebssichere und stabile Lösung dar.In this way, the two components can be guided during a relative displacement of the pivot pin and journal bearing to each other. The provision of a guide pin and a matching hole is a structurally simple, reliable and stable solution.
Das Scharnierglied kann wenigstens abschnittsweise aus faserverstärktem Kunststoff oder aus Zinkdruckguss bestehen. Die Ausbildung des Scharnierglieds wenigstens abschnittsweise aus faserverstärktem Kunststoff oder aus Zinkdruckguss ermöglicht dessen Herstellung in großen Stückzahlen. Gleichzeitig kann das Scharnierglied so ausgebildet werden, dass es auch hohen Belastungen und insbesondere Biegemomenten beim Öffnen, Schließen sowie Einbauen und Abnehmen des Deckels widerstehen kann.The hinge member may consist at least in sections of fiber-reinforced plastic or die-cast zinc. The formation of the hinge member at least partially made of fiber-reinforced plastic or die-cast zinc allows its production in large numbers. At the same time, the hinge member can be designed so that it can withstand high loads and in particular bending moments during opening, closing and installation and removal of the lid.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist das wenigstens eine Zapfenlager eine langlochartige Lagerbohrung auf.In a further development of the invention, the at least one journal bearing on a slot-like bearing bore.
Das Vorsehen einer langlochartigen Lagerbohrung ermöglicht eine spielbehaftete Ausbildung des Scharniers. Dies ermöglicht es, beim Schließen und Öffnen des Deckels geringfügig von einer reinen Schwenkbewegung um die Schwenkachsen abzuweichen. Dadurch kann der Deckel mit sehr geringen Toleranzen in das Gehäuse eingepasst werden, ohne dass das Scharnier so ausgebildet sein muss, dass es eine definierte Verschiebebewegung des Deckels relativ zum Gehäuse ermöglicht. Die erfindungsgemäße Unterflurgerätedose kann dadurch alle erforderlichen Funktionen problemlos erfüllen und dennoch kostengünstig ausgebildet werden.The provision of a slot-like bearing bore allows a play-related training of the hinge. This makes it possible to deviate slightly when closing and opening the lid of a pure pivoting movement about the pivot axes. Thereby, the lid can be fitted with very small tolerances in the housing, without the hinge must be designed so that it allows a defined displacement movement of the lid relative to the housing. The underfloor appliance box according to the invention can thereby fulfill all required functions without problems and yet be formed inexpensively.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist die langlochartige Lagerbohrung ein an den Durchmesser des Lagerzapfens angepasstes halbkreisförmiges Ende auf und die langlochartige Lagerbohrung erweitert sich ausgehend von dem halbkreisförmigen Ende.In a further development of the invention, the slot-like bearing bore has a semi-circular end adapted to the diameter of the bearing journal and the slot-like bearing bore widens starting from the semicircular end.
Auf diese Weise lässt sich die Lagerbohrung in einfacher Weise durch Kunststoffspritzguß herstellen. Bei entsprechender Anordnung der Lagerbohrung oberhalb einer Durchgangsöffnung, beispielsweise eine Durchgangsöffnung im Gehäuse, lässt sich die Lagerbohrung auf diese Weise in einem Kunststoffspritzgussteil ohne Verwendung von Schiebern in der Spritzgussform ausbilden. Die sich erweiternde langlochartige Lagerbohrung erleichtert dabei das Entformen.In this way, the bearing bore can be produced in a simple manner by plastic injection molding. With a corresponding arrangement of the bearing bore above a passage opening, for example a Through hole in the housing, the bearing bore can be formed in this way in a plastic injection molded part without the use of slides in the injection mold. The expanding slot-like bearing bore facilitates demolding.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist das wenigstens eine Zapfenlager mittels eines U-artigen Lagerbügels ausgebildet.In a further development of the invention, the at least one journal bearing is formed by means of a U-like bearing bracket.
Auf diese Weise lässt sich eine konstruktiv einfache Realisierung des Zapfenlagers erreichen, die beispielsweise auch mittels Kunststoffspritzguss ausführbar ist. Darüber hinaus stellt ein U-artiger Lagerbügel ein wenig verschmutzungsempfindliches Lager dar, was speziell bei Unterflurgerätedosen, die ja auf Bodenhöhe verwendet werden, ein wesentlicher Vorteil ist.In this way, a structurally simple realization of the journal bearing can be achieved, which can be carried out, for example, by means of plastic injection molding. In addition, a U-type bearing bracket is a little pollution-sensitive bearing, which is a significant advantage especially for underfloor device boxes, which are used at ground level.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist der U-artige Lagerbügel etwa im Bereich seiner Basis einen Trennschlitz auf.In a further development of the invention, the U-type bearing bracket has a separating slot approximately in the region of its base.
Auf diese Weise ist der Lagerbügel gegen Überbeanspruchung dadurch geschützt, dass der Gelenkzapfen aus dem Lagerbügel durch den dann aufgeweiteten Trennschlitz austreten kann. Die Schenkel des U-artigen Lagerbügels müssen hierzu wenigstens abschnittsweise elastisch ausgebildet sein, um das Aufweiten des Trennschlitzes mittels des Lagerzapfens zu ermöglichen. Das Scharnier kann dadurch bei Gewaltanwendung gelöst werden, ohne dass es hierdurch aber zerstört wird.In this way, the bearing bracket against overstress is protected by the fact that the pivot pin can escape from the bearing bracket through the then widened separating slot. The legs of the U-like bearing bracket must this be at least partially elastic designed to allow the widening of the separating slot by means of the journal. The hinge can be solved by using force, but without it being destroyed.
Vorteilhafterweise weist das Scharnier zwei voneinander beabstandete, parallele Schwenkachsen auf, wobei sich ein Scharnierglied zwischen den beiden Schwenkachsen erstreckt, und es ist wenigstens ein Anschlag vorgesehen, um eine Endposition des Scharnierglieds und/oder des Deckels festzulegen.Advantageously, the hinge has two spaced, parallel pivot axes, with a hinge member extending between the two pivot axes, and at least one stop is provided to define an end position of the hinge member and / or the lid.
Durch Vorsehen eines solchen Anschlags kann sichergestellt werden, dass das Scharnierglied und/oder der Deckel immer in eine definierte Ausgangsstellung, die der Verschlussstellung entsprechen kann, zurückfällt. Am Beispiel des Scharnierglieds kann beispielsweise durch einen Ausschlag verhindert werden, dass dieses radial nach inne fällt. Stattdessen wird sichergestellt, dass das Scharnierglied, der Schwerkraft folgend, beim Loslassen des Deckels nach außen, in Richtung seiner Verschlussstellung zurückfällt.By providing such a stop it can be ensured that the hinge member and / or the lid always fall back into a defined starting position, which may correspond to the closing position. The example of the hinge member can be prevented for example by a rash that this falls radially inwards. Instead, it is ensured that the hinge member, following gravity, upon release of the lid to the outside, falls back in the direction of its closed position.
In Weiterbildung der Erfindung definiert das Scharnier zwei zueinander parallele Schwenkachsen, wobei die zweite Schwenkachse angrenzend an eine Unterseite des Deckels angeordnet ist und wobei die erste Schwenkachse am Gehäuse angeordnet und in Einbaulage der Unterflurgerätedose und bei geschlossenem Deckel sowohl in vertikaler Richtung als auch in horizontaler Richtung von der zweiten Schwenkachse beabstandet ist.In a further development of the invention, the hinge defines two mutually parallel pivot axes, wherein the second pivot axis is disposed adjacent to an underside of the lid and wherein the first pivot axis arranged on the housing and in installation position of the underfloor device box and with the lid closed both in the vertical direction and in the horizontal direction is spaced from the second pivot axis.
In einer Seitenansicht der Unterflurgerätedose steht ein Scharnierglied dadurch bei vollständig geschlossenem Deckel schräg, wobei die zweite, am Gehäuse angeordnete Schwenkachse vorteilhafterweise gegenüber der ersten, am Deckel angeordneten Schwenkachse nach innen, zu einer Mitte des Gehäuses hin, versetzt ist. Vorteilhafterweise ist das Scharnierglied bei geschlossenem Deckel in einem Winkel zwischen 40° und 50° zu einer Oberseite des Deckels angeordnet. Auf diese Weise lässt sich das Öffnen des Deckels bewirken, obwohl eine Oberseite des Deckels im geschlossenen Zustand mit einer Oberseite des Gehäuses fluchtet. Speziell kann durch eine solche Anordnung der Scharnierachsen ermöglicht werden, dass der Deckel in einem topfartigen Oberteil des Gehäuses aufgenommen ist. Dies ist speziell dann von Vorteil, wenn der Deckel mit geringen Toleranzen in das topfartige Oberteil des Gehäuses eingepasst ist, um zu verhindern, dass Feuchtigkeit und/oder Verschmutzung bei geschlossenem Deckel in den Innenraum der Unterflurgerätedose eindringt. Beispielsweise kann auch vorgesehen sein, zwischen dem Deckel und dem Gehäuse eine Dichtung gegen Eindringen von Feuchtigkeit vorzusehen.In a side view of the underfloor box, a hinge member is thereby obliquely when the lid is fully closed, wherein the second, arranged on the housing pivot axis advantageously relative to the first, arranged on the lid pivot axis inwardly, to a center of the housing, is offset. Advantageously, the hinge member is arranged with the lid closed at an angle between 40 ° and 50 ° to an upper side of the lid. In this way, the opening of the lid can be effected, although an upper side of the lid is in the closed state aligned with an upper side of the housing. Specifically, it can be made possible by such an arrangement of the hinge axes, that the lid is received in a pot-like upper part of the housing. This is particularly advantageous when the lid is fitted with small tolerances in the pot-like upper part of the housing to prevent moisture and / or contamination with the lid closed in the interior of the underfloor box penetrates. For example, it can also be provided to provide a seal against the ingress of moisture between the lid and the housing.
