Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Balanciervorrichtung mit einer Tragstruktur, die zwei über einen Distanzhalter voneinander distanzierte Stützelemente sowie Aufstellelemente aufweist, wobei ein Balancierseil oder -band über die Stützelemente gespannt ist.The invention relates to a Balanciervorrichtung with a support structure having two spaced apart via a spacer support elements and mounting elements, wherein a Balancierseil or band is stretched over the support elements.
Bekannte Balanciervorrichtungen haben häufig das Problem, dass sie hohen Belastungen ausgesetzt sind. Zum einen muss eine entsprechende Tragstruktur stark genug sein, um die Zugkräfte des Balancierseils oder -bandes aufnehmen zu können und dann zusätzlich noch das Gewicht des Benutzers tragen zu können. Damit die Vorrichtungen diese Anforderungen erfüllen, sind sie entsprechend groß ausgestaltet, wodurch sie einerseits schwer und andererseits sperrig sind. Meist kann man sie dann in der Praxis nur an fix aufgestellten Orten verwenden und schlecht verstauen oder transportieren. Jene Vorrichtungen aus Holz sind besonders massiv und haben einen durchgehenden Mittelbalken als Distanzhalter von mehreren Metern, welcher bereits bei der Lieferung solcher Vorrichtungen ein logistisches Problem darstellt. Andere Vorrichtungen aus Metall sind teilweise zerlegbar in der Form von ineinander steckbaren Hohlprofilen gefertigt. Damit die Vorrichtung weiterhin die nötige Stabilität im Gebrauch hat, sind selbst die einzelnen Segmente zu schwer und unhandlich für den Transport.Known balancers often have the problem that they are exposed to high loads. On the one hand, a corresponding supporting structure must be strong enough to be able to absorb the tensile forces of the balancing rope or band and then additionally be able to carry the weight of the user. In order for the devices to meet these requirements, they are designed to be correspondingly large, making them both heavy and bulky on the one hand. In most cases, they can only be used in practice at fixed locations and can be easily stowed away or transported. Those wooden devices are particularly solid and have a continuous center bar as spacers of several meters, which already represents a logistical problem in the supply of such devices. Other metal devices are partially dismantled in the form of nestable hollow sections. So that the device still has the necessary stability in use, even the individual segments are too heavy and unwieldy for transport.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es somit eine Balanciervorrichtung zu schaffen, welche leicht und zerlegbar ist, sodass sie auch für den privaten Gebrauch beispielsweise in der Wohnung geeignet ist und einfach zu transportieren und zu lagern ist.The object of the present invention is thus to provide a balancing device which is easy and dismantled so that it is also suitable for private use, for example in the apartment and is easy to transport and store.
Dies wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 erreicht. Der Distanzhalter umfasst mindestens einen ersten Abschnitt und mindestens zwei in Längsrichtung angrenzende zweite Abschnitte, wobei der erste Abschnitt durch einen Balken gebildet wird und die zweiten Abschnitte aus jeweils zwei Streben gebildet sind welche in Längsrichtung in ihren Endabschnitten mit den Endabschnitten des Balkens seitlich überlappen, und wobei im Überlappungsbereich der ersten und zweiten Abschnitte jeweils zumindest zwei Befestigungsmittel vorgesehen sind, welche zur starren Verbindung zwischen den Abschnitten anordbar sind. Bevorzugt wird als Material schichtverleimtes Holz verwendet. Ein einzelner Abschnitt kann beispielsweise 1,2 m Länge haben, wodurch eine Vorrichtung bestehend aus einem ersten Abschnitt und zwei zweiten Abschnitten noch gut in einer Privatwohnung verwendet werden kann, zerlegt jedoch nur eine maximale Größe von 120 cm in seiner längsten Ausdehnung hat. Das Gewicht der Vorrichtung bewegt sich um die 15 kg, wodurch sie einfach als Paket lieferbar ist und auch entsprechend einfach vom Benutzer transportiert werden kann. Für spezielle Anwendungszwecke ist es auch möglich, mehrere erste und zweite Abschnitte kettenartig aneinanderzubauen und somit größere Vorrichtungen für den Outdoor-Bereich herzustellen, wobei durch den modulartigen Aufbau der Herstellungsaufwand praktisch gleich bleibt. Es versteht sich für den Fachmann, dass auch eine Vorrichtung mit einem zweiten Abschnitt als Mittelabschnitt und zwei angrenzenden ersten Abschnitten eine äquivalente Lösung darstellt. Es versteht sich weiters, dass in diesem Fall das Stützelement entsprechend den ersten Abschnitt außen übergreifend ausgestaltet sein kann.This is achieved according to the invention by the features of
Als Befestigungsmittel in jeweils einer ersten Bohrung im Überlappungsbereich zwischen zwei Abschnitten ist gemäß der Erfindung ein fix montiertes Gelenksverbindungsmittel angeordnet, wobei in der jeweils zweiten Bohrung ein Sicherungsstift lösbar angeordnet ist. Dadurch wird es ermöglicht, die Vorrichtung zusammenzufalten, wodurch sie nicht nur leicht zu transportieren ist, sondern auch besonders schnell aufgestellt werden kann.As a fastening means in each case a first bore in the overlap region between two sections a fixed mounted joint connecting means is arranged according to the invention, wherein in the respective second bore a securing pin is detachably arranged. This makes it possible to fold the device, whereby it is not only easy to transport, but also can be set up very quickly.
Gemäß einer Alternative, die nicht Teil der Erfindung ist, sind im Überlappungsbereich zwischen ersten und zweiten Abschnitten jeweils Nuten angeordnet, in welche Befestigungsmittel in Form von im Wesentlichen U-förmigen Klammern eingreifen, wobei jeweils eine Klammer mit dem Mittelabschnitt oben auf einem ersten Abschnitt in eine Nut eingreift und mit seinen beiden Endabschnitten unten in eine jeweilige Nut auf den Streben des zweiten Abschnitts und die zweite Klammer umgekehrt zur ersten mit ihrem Mittelabschnitt unten in eine Nut auf dem ersten Abschnitt und mit den beiden Endabschnitten oben auf den Streben des zweiten Abschnitts eingreift. Diese Ausführungsform ermöglicht eine besonders rasche und einfache Montage, bei der die Vorrichtung lediglich zusammengesteckt werden muss und keinerlei Schraubverbindungen notwendig sind. Äquivalent zu den Klammern können stattdessen auch Schnüre oder Bänder vorgesehen sein, welche an den zweiten Abschnitten befestigt sind und die ersten Abschnitte in gleicher Weise wie die Klammern umgreifen.According to an alternative, which is not part of the invention, in the overlapping region between first and second portions respectively grooves are arranged, in which fasteners engage in the form of substantially U-shaped brackets, each with a clip to the central portion on top of a first section in FIG engages a groove and engages with its two end portions at the bottom in a respective groove on the struts of the second portion and the second bracket opposite to the first with its central portion at the bottom in a groove on the first portion and with the two end portions on top of the struts of the second portion , This embodiment allows a particularly quick and easy installation, in which the device only has to be plugged together and no screw connections are necessary. As an alternative to the brackets, cords or straps may be provided instead, which are attached to the second sections and engage around the first sections in the same manner as the brackets.
Gemäß der Erfindung sind die Stützelemente durch zwei Balkenelemente gebildet, die in Längsrichtung der Vorrichtung in Richtung des jeweils näherliegenden Endes geneigt angeordnet sind und jeweils zwischen den beiden Streben eines zweiten Abschnitts des Distanzhalters und zwischen zwei Haltebolzen, welche die beiden Streben quer zur Längsrichtung durchragen, eingeschoben sind, wobei zumindest jeweils eine am Balkenelement angeordnete Nut mit einem der Haltebolzen in Eingriff bringbar ist, um das Balkenelement gegen Verrutschen zu sichern, und wobei die Balkenelemente durch Spannen des Balancierseils oder -bands in seiner Lage fixiert ist. Durch dieses Merkmal kann die Vorrichtung besonders schnell aufgebaut werden, da die Stützelemente ohne jegliche Schraubverbindungen oder weitere Fixierungen in den Distanzhalter eingeschoben werden und durch Spannen des Balancierseils oderbandes in Ihrer Lage gesichert sind.According to the invention, the support elements are formed by two beam elements, which are arranged inclined in the longitudinal direction of the device in the direction of the respective closer end and respectively between the two struts of a second portion of the spacer and between two retaining bolts, which project through the two struts transverse to the longitudinal direction, are inserted, wherein at least one groove disposed on the beam element groove with one of the retaining bolts is engageable to secure the beam member against slipping, and wherein the beam elements is fixed by tensioning the Balancierseils or bands in its position. By this feature, the device can be constructed very quickly, since the support elements are inserted without any screw or other fixings in the spacer and secured by tensioning the Balancierseils orbandes in your position.
Ferner ist es ein Merkmal der Erfindung, dass die Balkenelemente zumindest jeweils eine schräge Stirnseite aufweisen, welche im zusammengebauten Zustand der Balanciervorrichtung etwa parallel zur Aufstellfläche angeordnet ist, und dass die Nut auf der im zusammengebauten Zustand nach oben weisenden Längsseite des Balkenelements vorgesehen ist, wobei der Normalabstand zwischen der nuttragenden Längsseite und der gegenüberliegenden Längsseite des Balkenelements in dem Abschnitt zwischen schräger Stirnseite und Nut geringer ist als in dem Abschnitt zwischen Nut und gegenüberliegender Stirnseite, jedoch nicht geringer als der Normalabstand zwischen Nutengrund und gegenüberliegender Längsseite. Durch dieses Merkmal wird das Einfädeln des Balkenelements beim Aufbau der Vorrichtung erleichtert. Außerdem kann beim Einstecken des Balkenelements dieses nicht so leicht über den Haltebolzen hinweggeschoben werden, da sich der Haltebolzen an der Nut fängt, wodurch das Balkenelement bis zu seiner Endlage geführt ist. Als äquivalente Ausführungsform wird auch ein Balkenelement angesehen, welches die Nut auf der nach unten gerichteten Längsseite trägt und mit dieser mit dem entsprechenden Haltebolzen zusammenwirkt.Furthermore, it is a feature of the invention that the beam elements at least each have an oblique end face, which in the assembled state of the balancing approximately parallel to Aufstellfläche is arranged, and that the groove is provided on the assembled state in the upwardly facing longitudinal side of the beam element, wherein the normal distance between the groove-carrying longitudinal side and the opposite longitudinal side of the beam element in the portion between the oblique end face and groove is less than in the section between Groove and opposite end face, but not less than the normal distance between groove bottom and opposite longitudinal side. By this feature, the threading of the beam element in the construction of the device is facilitated. In addition, when inserting the beam element this can not be pushed over the retaining bolts so easily, since the retaining pin catches on the groove, whereby the beam element is guided to its end position. As an equivalent embodiment, a beam member is also considered, which carries the groove on the downwardly directed longitudinal side and cooperates with this with the corresponding retaining bolt.
Schließlich ist es ein weiteres Merkmal der Erfindung, dass das Balancierseil oder -band mit seinen Enden am Distanzhalter befestigt ist und über die Stirnseiten des Distanzhalters und über die obere Stirnseite der Stützelemente umläuft, und dass zwischen Stützelement und dem stirnseitigen Ende des Distanzhalters eine Spannvorrichtung in Form einer Platte vorgesehen ist, welche mit ihren Stirnseiten zwischen einem Auflager auf der Balanciervorrichtung und dem Balancierseil oder-band im Abschnitt zwischen Stützelement und Distanzhalter eingespannt ist, wobei die Platte im abgesenkten Zustand über die Stirnseite des Distanzhalters hinausragt, wodurch das Balancierseil oder-band gespannt ist, und dass die Platte ferner eine Fixiereinrichtung umfasst, welche eine lösbare Verbindung zum Distanzhalter zur Sicherung der Spannvorrichtung in der gespannten Position ermöglicht. Das Balancierseil oder -band wird relativ lose über die Vorrichtung gespannt und durch Hinunterdrücken der durch eine Platte gebildeten Spannvorrichtung gespannt. Damit im Gebrauch die Platte nicht wieder nach oben schnellt und die Spannung des Balancierseils oder -bands nachgibt, wird die Platte mit einer Fixiereinrichtung, beispielsweise in Form eines durch die Platte laufenden Bandes, am Distanzhalter fixiert. In einer besonders einfachen Ausführungsform bildet der Schnittpunkt zwischen Stützelement und Distanzhalter das Auflager für die Platte. Anstelle einer Platte wäre auch ein U-förmiges Element als Äquivalent denkbar, welches sich mit seinen beiden Schenkeln auf den Auflagern abstützt. In dem Fall könnten auch die Auflager weiter mittig auf dem Distanzhalter liegen, wobei das U-förmige Element dann das Stützelement seitlich umgreift.Finally, it is a further feature of the invention that the Balancierseil or -band is attached with its ends on the spacer and rotates over the end faces of the spacer and the upper end side of the support members, and that between support member and the front end of the spacer, a clamping device in Form of a plate is provided, which is clamped with their end faces between a support on the Balanciervorrichtung and Balancierseil or band in the section between the support member and spacer, wherein the plate in the lowered state protrudes beyond the end face of the spacer, whereby the Balancierseil or band is tensioned, and that the plate further comprises a fixing device which allows a detachable connection to the spacer for securing the tensioning device in the cocked position. The balancing rope or strap is stretched relatively loosely over the device and tensioned by depressing the tensioning device formed by a plate. Thus, in use, the plate does not jump back up and the tension of Balancierseils or bands yields, the plate with a fixing device, for example in the form of a running through the plate belt, fixed to the spacer. In a particularly simple embodiment, the intersection between the support element and spacer forms the support for the plate. Instead of a plate and a U-shaped element would be conceivable as an equivalent, which is supported with its two legs on the supports. In that case, the supports could also be located more centrally on the spacer, wherein the U-shaped element then engages around the support element laterally.
