Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Haltekörper für flexibles Schleifmittel, ein Schleifsystem und ein Schleifgerät, insbesondere ein Handschleifgerät nach der Gattung der unabhängigen Ansprüche.The invention relates to a holder body for flexible abrasive, a grinding system and a grinding device, in particular a hand grinder according to the preamble of the independent claims.

Gattungsgemäße Haltekörper in Form von Schleiftellern sind beispielsweise in DE 20 2009 000 880 und EP 0 781 629 A1 beschrieben. Diese Schleifteller weisen einen weichen Stützkörper, welcher beispielsweise Schaumstoff umfassen kann, sowie eine Klett- oder Haftschicht zum Verbinden mit einem flexiblen Schleifmittel auf. Das flexible Schleifmittel kann beispielsweise eine Schleifscheibe sein. Diese bekannten Schleifteller weisen mehrere in axialer Richtung verlaufende Bohrungen auf, durch welche Luft und beim Schleifen entstehender Schleifstaub abgesaugt werden können. Diese Bohrungen durchdringen sowohl die weiche Schicht als auch die Klett- oder Haftschicht.Generic holding body in the form of grinding plates are, for example, in DE 20 2009 000 880 and EP 0 781 629 A1 described. These sanding pads have a soft support body, which may comprise, for example, foam, as well as a Velcro or adhesive layer for bonding with a flexible abrasive. The flexible abrasive may be, for example, a grinding wheel. These known sanding plates have a plurality of bores running in the axial direction, through which air and grinding dust produced during sanding can be sucked off. These holes penetrate both the soft layer and the Velcro or adhesive layer.

Aufgrund der notwendigen Bohrungen ergibt sich für den jeweiligen Schleifteller ein charakteristisches Lochbild, an welches die hiermit verwendbaren Schleifmittel angepasst sein müssen. Diese müssen nämlich selbst Löcher mit einem entsprechenden Lochbild aufweisen. Dies ist besonders nachteilig, da mit einem vorgegebenen Schleifteller nur ganz bestimmte Schleifmittel verwendet werden können. Außerdem muss beim Befestigen des Schleifmittels am Schleifteller die relative Ausrichtung der Schleifmittel zum Schleifteller beachtet werden, damit die Löcher im Schleifmittel kongruent mit den Löchern im Schleifteller sind und somit eine Absaugung möglich ist. Konstruktiv aufwändige Lösungen dieses Problems sind z. B. aus EP 1 977 858 oder WO 2009/088772 A2 bekannt. Darüber hinaus ist ein weiterer gattungsgemäßer Haltekörper mit einer luft- und standdurchläßigen Befestigungsfläche aus der WO 2007/143400 A2 bekannt.Due to the necessary holes results for the respective grinding plate a characteristic hole pattern to which the abrasive used hereby must be adapted. These must in fact have holes with a corresponding hole pattern. This is particularly disadvantageous because only a very specific abrasive can be used with a given sanding pad. In addition, when attaching the abrasive to the sanding pad, the relative orientation of the sanding media to the sanding pad must be taken into account so that the holes in the abrasive are congruent with the holes in the sanding pad, allowing extraction. Constructively complex solutions to this problem are z. B. off EP 1 977 858 or WO 2009/088772 A2 known. In addition, another generic holding body with an air and permeable mounting surface of the WO 2007/143400 A2 known.

Offenbarung der ErfindungDisclosure of the invention Vorteile der ErfindungAdvantages of the invention

Der erfindungsgemäße Haltekörper mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 hat den Vorteil, dass ein beim Arbeitsprozess entstandener Schleifstaub durch einen Saugluftstrom zunächst im Wesentlichen ungehindert und auf kürzestem Weg durch die Befestigungsschicht treten kann, da die Befestigungsfläche der Befestigungsschicht in einer im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Befestigungsfläche verlaufenden Richtung im Wesentlichen luft- und staubdurchlässig ist. Dabei wird unter einer "luft- und staubdurchlässigen Befestigungsschicht" insbesondere eine Befestigungsschicht verstanden, welche zumindest teileweise aus einem luft- und staubdurchlässigen, insbesondere offenporigen Material und/oder zumindest teilweise aus einem Material besteht, welches durch mindestens einen Bearbeitungsschritt, beispielsweise Stanzen, Fräsen und/oder Bohren, insbesondere durch Laserbohren oder ein anderweitiges Verfahren mit, das Material durchstoßenden Bohrungen und/oder Kanälen luft- und staubdurchlässig gemacht wurde. So kann eine Luftströmung, insbesondere eine staubhaltige Luftströmung, von der Befestigungsfläche im Wesentlich senkrecht zur Befestigungsfläche durch die Befestigungsschicht treten. Dadurch wird ein Gegendruck durch die Befestigungsschicht vorteilhaft reduziert. Gleichzeitig gelangen Staubteilchen auf kürzestem Weg von der einem Schleifprozess zugewandten Seite der Befestigungsschicht auf die dem Schleifprozess abgewandte Seite der Befestigungsschicht.The holding body according to the invention with the features of claim 1 has the advantage that a sanding dust resulting from the working process can initially pass through the attachment layer substantially unhindered and by the shortest path, since the attachment surface of the attachment layer extends in a direction substantially perpendicular to the attachment surface is substantially air and dust permeable. In this case, a "air- and dust-permeable attachment layer" in particular a fastening layer understood, which consists at least partially of an air and dust permeable, especially open-pore material and / or at least partially made of a material which by at least one processing step, such as punching, milling and / or drilling, in particular by laser drilling or other method with the material piercing holes and / or channels was made air and dust permeable. Thus, an air flow, in particular a dust-containing air flow, from the mounting surface substantially perpendicular to the mounting surface through the attachment layer occur. As a result, a back pressure is advantageously reduced by the attachment layer. At the same time, dust particles reach the side of the fastening layer facing away from the grinding process by the shortest route from the side of the fastening layer facing a grinding process.

Durch die in den Unteransprüchen aufgeführten Maßnahmen ergeben sich vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen und Verbesserungen der im Hauptanspruch angegebenen Merkmale.The measures listed in the dependent claims, advantageous refinements and improvements of the main claim features.

Erfährt eine im wesentlichen senkrecht zur Befestigungsfläche verlaufenden Luftströmung, insbesondere staubhaltige Luftströmung, nach Durchtritt durch die Befestigungsschicht zumindest eine teilweise Umlenkung in eine aus Sicht des Schleifmittels im Wesentlichen hinter der Befestigungsschicht verlaufende Querströmung durch den Stützkörper, kann auf einfache Weise eine gleichmäßige Abfuhr des Schleifstaubs erzielt werden, ohne dass eine starke Drosselung des Saugluftstroms überwunden werden muss. Dies ist insbesondere für Anwendungen von Bedeutung bei denen die Befestigungsfläche des Haltekörpers deutlich größer ist als eine Querschnittfläche eines absaugseitigen Bereichs. So können erfindungsgemäße Haltekörper vorzugsweise kegelstumpfartig ausgebildet sein, wobei insbesondere die Größere der Grundflächen als Befestigungsfläche ausgebildet ist.If a flow of air substantially perpendicular to the fastening surface, in particular dust-containing air flow, after passing through the fastening layer undergoes at least a partial deflection into a transverse flow passing through the support body substantially behind the fastening layer from the viewpoint of the abrasive, a uniform removal of the grinding dust can be achieved in a simple manner be without a strong throttling of the suction air flow must be overcome. This is particularly important for applications in which the mounting surface of the holder body is significantly larger as a cross-sectional area of a suction-side area. Thus, holding body according to the invention may preferably be formed in a truncated cone, in particular, the larger of the base surfaces is designed as a mounting surface.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführung sind die Befestigungsmittel des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers als mechanische Befestigungsmittel zum Befestigen eines flexiblen Schleifmittels, insbesondere als von der Befestigungsfläche hervorstehende Schlaufen und/oder Haken ausgebildet.In a preferred embodiment, the fastening means of the holding body according to the invention are designed as mechanical fastening means for fastening a flexible abrasive, in particular as loops and / or hooks protruding from the fastening surface.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführung enthält die Befestigungsschicht ein offenporiges Material. Die Befestigungsschicht kann dabei jedoch auch aus dem offenporigen Material bestehen. Als "offenporig" wird an dieser Stelle insbesondere ein Material verstanden, welches entlang zumindest einer Raumrichtung, insbesondere senkrecht zur Befestigungsfläche, Poren, Kanäle, Öffnungen und/oder Ausnehmungen aufweist, so dass ein mit Staub beladener Luftstrom durch das Material durchtreten kann. Typischerweise weist der bei einem Schleifprozess erzeugte Schleifstaub eine typische Größenverteilung der Schleifpartikel auf, so dass bevorzugt die minimalen Durchlassquerschnitte der Kanäle, Öffnungen und/oder Ausnehmungen bzw. eine Porosität der Poren durch die größten typischerweise auftretenden Schleifpartikel definiert werden.In a particularly preferred embodiment, the attachment layer contains an open-pored material. However, the attachment layer can also consist of the open-pored material. At this point, "open-pored" is understood as meaning in particular a material which has pores, channels, openings and / or recesses along at least one spatial direction, in particular perpendicular to the fastening surface, so that a dust-laden air stream can pass through the material. Typically, the grinding dust generated during a grinding process has a typical size distribution of the abrasive particles, so that preferably the minimum passage cross-sections of the channels, openings and / or recesses or porosity of the pores are defined by the largest typically occurring abrasive particles.

Mit einem textilen Material lässt sich in besonderes einfacher und kostengünstiger Weise die Ausbildung als offenporiges Material erzielen. Daher enthält die Befestigungsschicht einer besonders bevorzugte Ausführung des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers ein textiles Material oder besteht daraus. Vorzugsweise weist das textile Material Schlaufen und/oder Haken und/oder Pilzköpfe auf als Befestigungsmittel auf, welche insbesondere für die Ausbildung eines bekannten Klettsystem geeignet sind. Es ist jedoch auch denkbar, dass ein von seiner Materialstruktur her dichtes, insbesondere staub- und luftundurchlässiges Material als Befestigungsschicht durch geeignete Perforation, Perforierungen und/oder Durchlöcherungen in regelmäßigem oder unregelmäßigen Mustern erfindungsgemäße vorteilhaft eingesetzt werden. Auch kann eine geeignete Perforation, Perforierungen und/oder Durchlöcherungen in regelmäßigem oder unregelmäßigen Mustern mit textilen Materialien oder Materialmischungen vorteilhaft kombiniert werden.With a textile material can be in a particularly simple and inexpensive way to achieve the training as an open-pored material. Therefore, the attachment layer of a particularly preferred embodiment of the holding body according to the invention contains a textile material or consists thereof. Preferably, the textile material has loops and / or hooks and / or mushroom heads as fastening means, which are particularly suitable for the formation of a known Velcro system. However, it is also conceivable that a dense from its material structure, in particular dust and air impermeable material according to the invention as a fastening layer by suitable perforation, perforations and / or perforations in regular or irregular patterns are advantageously used. Also, suitable perforations, perforations and / or perforations in regular or irregular patterns can be advantageously combined with textile materials or material blends.

Eine bevorzugte Weiterentwicklung des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers wird erreicht, wenn die Befestigungsschicht die Befestigungsfläche nahezu vollständig, vorzugsweise vollständig überdeckt.A preferred development of the holding body according to the invention is achieved when the attachment layer covers the attachment surface almost completely, preferably completely.

Die erfindungsgemäße Ausgestaltung des Haltekörpers wird dadurch erreicht, dass der Stützkörper einen Staubraum aufweist, welcher in einem an die Stützfläche angrenzenden Bereich vorgesehen ist, wobei der Staubraum aus Sicht der Stützfläche eine wabenartige Strukturierung aufweist, die mit Kanälen, Rinnen und/oder Nuten zur Führung einer Luftströmung durchzogen ist. Insbesondere wird durch einen derartigen Staubraum erreicht, dass ein sich gegebenenfalls aufbauende, den staubhaltigen Luftstrom behindernde Druckbarriere nach Durchtritt durch die erfindungsgemäße Befestigungsschicht vorteilhaft reduziert wird. Dies ist insbesondere für Anwendungen von Bedeutung bei denen die Befestigungsfläche des Haltekörpers deutlich größer ist als eine Querschnittfläche eines absaugseitigen Bereichs, da besonders in derartigen Anwendungsfällen eine zunehmende Verengung einer lateralen Ausdehnung des Luftstroms beim Durchströmen des Stützkörpers eine Drosselwirkung hervorrufen könnte. Der Staubraum ermöglicht es hier die Umlenkung des Luftstroms mit geringst möglichen Verlusten zu realisieren Alternativ oder ergänzend kann auch zumindest ein Staubraum im Inneren Stützkörpers vorgesehen sein, der ähnliche Wirkungen aufweist. Vorzugsweise erfolgt daher die Umlenkung der Luftströmung im Wesentlichen im Staubraum.The inventive design of the holding body is achieved in that the support body has a dust chamber, which is provided in a region adjacent to the support surface area, wherein the dust chamber from the viewpoint of the support surface has a honeycomb structure, with channels, grooves and / or grooves for guiding is traversed by an air flow. In particular, it is achieved by such a dust chamber that an optionally constructive pressure barrier obstructing the dusty air flow is advantageously reduced after passing through the fastening layer according to the invention. This is particularly important for applications in which the mounting surface of the holder body is significantly larger than a cross-sectional area of a suction-side region, since an increasing constriction of a lateral expansion of the air flow when flowing through the support body could cause a throttling effect especially in such applications. The dust chamber makes it possible here to realize the deflection of the air flow with the lowest possible losses. Alternatively or additionally, at least one dust chamber can also be provided in the inner support body, which has similar effects. Preferably, therefore, the deflection of the air flow substantially in the dust chamber.

Weist der Stützkörper des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers mindestens eine Abluftbohrung auf, welche den Staubraum mit einer der Stützfläche gegenüberliegenden Fläche luft- und staubdurchlässig verbindet und durch die Luft vom Staubraum abgesogen werden kann, so lässt sich der erfindungsgemäße Haltekörper besonders leicht an einer Schleifmaschine mit Absaugvorrichtung, seines eine interne oder aber auch eine externe vorgesehene Absaugeinheit, applizieren.If the support body of the holding body according to the invention has at least one exhaust air hole which connects the dust space with a surface lying opposite the support surface and is permeable to dust and can be sucked out of the dust space by the air, then the holding body according to the invention can be attached to a grinding machine with a suction device an internal or even an external intended suction, apply.

In einer Weiterentwicklung weist der Stützkörper mindestens eine Zuluftbohrung auf, über welche ein Luftstrom in einen Bereich vor der Befestigungsschicht des Haltekörpers geleitet werden kann. In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausgestaltung führt die Zuluftbohrung dabei Frischluft in einen zentralen Bereich des Haltekörpers ein, von aus die Frischluft einem Bearbeitungsbereich zugeführt wird.In a further development, the support body has at least one supply air bore, via which an air flow can be conducted into an area in front of the attachment layer of the support body. In a particularly preferred embodiment, the Zuluftbohrung introduces fresh air into a central region of the holding body, from which the fresh air is supplied to a processing area.

In einer besonders bevorzugten Ausgestaltung wird die wabenartige Struktur des Staubraums im wesentlichen durch aus dem restlichen Stützkörper hervorstehende Stützvorsprünge gebildet, welche zumindest teilweise bis in die Stützfläche ragen, so dass die in die Stützflächen ragenden Teile der Stützvorsprünge Teile der Stützfläche bilden, wobei die Befestigungsschicht vorzugsweise mit diesen Teilen der Stützflächen verbunden, insbesondere verklebt und/oder verschweißt ist. Dadurch wird eine gleichmäßigere Verteilung der Belastungen im Anwendungsfall auf die Verbindung der Befestigungsschicht am Haltekörper erreicht. Gleichzeitig wird die Befestigungsschicht an der Stützfläche gleichmäßiger abgestützt, so dass die Bearbeitungskräfte gleichmäßiger über die Fläche verteilt übertragen werden können.In a particularly preferred embodiment, the honeycomb-like structure of the dust chamber is substantially protruding from the rest of the support body Support projections formed which at least partially protrude into the support surface, so that the protruding into the support surfaces parts of the support projections form parts of the support surface, wherein the attachment layer is preferably connected to these parts of the support surfaces, in particular glued and / or welded. As a result, a more uniform distribution of the loads in the application to the connection of the attachment layer is achieved on the holding body. At the same time, the attachment layer is supported more uniformly on the support surface, so that the machining forces can be transmitted more uniformly distributed over the surface.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Weiterentwicklung des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers sieht vor, dass der Stützkörper einer der Stützfläche im Wesentlichen gegenüberliegende Anschlussfläche aufweist, wobei die Anschlussfläche einen geringeren Flächeninhalt, insbesondere einen geringeren Außendurchmesser aufweist als die Stützfläche und wobei in der Anschlussfläche vorzugsweise mindestens eine Absaugöffnung vorgesehen ist.A further advantageous further development of the holding body according to the invention provides that the support body has a connection surface substantially opposite the support surface, wherein the connection surface has a smaller surface area, in particular a smaller outer diameter than the support surface and wherein at least one suction opening is provided in the connection surface.

Wenn der Stützkörper zumindest einen Tragkörper und eine Deckplatte aufweist, wobei sich der Tragkörper zwischen der Stützfläche und der Deckplatte erstreckt und luft- und staubdurchlässig ist, insbesondere aus einem luft- und staubdurchlässigen Material besteht, und wobei die Deckplatte im Wesentlichen die Anschlussfläche bildet, kann der Stützkörper vorteilhaft vor mechanischen Beschädigungen geschützt werden. Weiters ermöglicht die Deckplatte die Integration einer robusten Schnittstelle zur Verbindung des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers mit einer Schleifmaschine. Die Schnittstelle kann dabei insbesondere als Schraub-, Rast-, Clips- und/oder SteckVerbindung ausgebildet sein. Es sind dem Fachmann jedoch auch weitere Ausgestaltungen von Werkzeugschnittstellen wie beispielsweise für Drehoszillationswerkzeuge bekannt, welche an dieser Stelle vorteilhaft in oder an der Deckplatte vorgesehen sein können.If the support body has at least one support body and a cover plate, wherein the support body extends between the support surface and the cover plate and is permeable to air and dust, in particular consists of an air- and dust-permeable material, and wherein the cover plate substantially forms the connection surface can the support body are advantageously protected against mechanical damage. Furthermore, the cover plate allows the integration of a robust interface for connecting the holding body according to the invention with a grinding machine. The interface can be designed in particular as a screw, latching, clips and / or plug connection. However, other embodiments of tool interfaces, such as, for example, for rotary oscillation tools, which may advantageously be provided in or on the cover plate, are known to the person skilled in the art.

In einer alternativen oder ergänzenden Weiterentwicklung kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Stützkörper einen Schutzkörper aufweist, vorzugsweise von diesem radial umschlossen wird, wobei eine der Stützfläche zugewandte radiale Außenkontur im Wesentlichen einer Außenkontur der Stützfläche gleicht, vorzugsweise mit dieser nahezu identisch ist. Der Schutzkörper sichert vorteilhaft den Stützkörper in seiner Umfangsfläche vor mechanischen Schäden. Weiters kann der Schutzkörper dazu vorgesehen sein, ein Stützkörper in seiner Umfangsfläche luft- und staubdicht auszubilden, insbesondere einen Stützkörper, vorzugsweise einen Tragkörper aus einem offenporigen Material in seiner Umfangsfläche luft- und staubdicht abzudichten, so dass nur über radial Stirnflächen ein Luftstrom durch den Haltekörper gelangen kann.In an alternative or additional development can be provided that the support body has a protective body, preferably radially enclosed by this, wherein a support surface facing the radial outer contour is substantially equal to an outer contour of the support surface, preferably with this almost identical. The protective body advantageously secures the support body in its circumferential surface against mechanical damage. Furthermore, the protective body may be provided to form a supporting body in its circumferential surface air and dustproof, in particular a support body, preferably a support body air-tight and dust-tight seal an open-pored material in its peripheral surface, so that only over radial faces an air flow can pass through the holder body.

Weiters kann der Schutzkörper eine in einer Ebene der Stützfläche liegende vorteilhafte Anlagefläche aufweisen, wobei die Befestigungsschicht zumindest an der Anlagefläche mit dem Schutzkörper verbunden, insbesondere verklebt und/oder verschweißt ist, so dass insbesondere die Befestigungsschicht vorzugsweise umlaufend mit dem Schutzkörper verbunden ist. Die Anlagefäche ist dabei vorzugsweise als ebene Ringfläche oder ebene, ringähnliche Fläche ausgebildet. Ein fur die Erfindung geeignetes Schleifmittel umfasst eine, eine Arbeitsfläche im Wesentlich bedeckende Arbeitsschicht, eine luft- und staubdurchlässige Trägerschicht sowie eine mit den Befestigungsmitteln des Haltekörpers zur Befestigung des Schleifmittels am Haltekörper zusammenwirkende Verbindungsmittel aufweisende Verbindungsschicht, welche eine der Arbeitsfläche im Wesentlichen abgewandte Verbindungsfläche bereitstellt und so ausgebildet ist, dass die Verbindungsfläche in einer im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Verbindungsfläche verlaufenden Richtung im Wesentlichen luft- und staubdurchlässig ist. Unter einem "flexiblen Schleifmittel" wird dabei insbesondere eine Schleifscheibe verstanden, welche in einem nicht mit dem Haltekörper verbundenen, losen Zustand zumindest in einer Richtung senkrecht zur Arbeitsfläche verbogen, verknickt oder anderweitig verformt werden kann. Unter einer "Arbeitsschicht" wird hierbei insbesondere eine Schicht mit mindestens einem abrasiv wirkenden Medium, wie beispielweise Schleifkörnern aus bekannten Schleifmedien mit einer gegebenen Schleifkornverteilung, verstanden. Die Trägerschicht kann dabei eine offenporige, insbesondere luft- und staubdurchlässige Papier-, Textil- Schaum- und/oder ElastomerKomponente aufweisen, insbesondere daraus bestehen. Die Verbindungsschicht kann vorzugsweise ein textiles und/oder anderweitig offenporiges Material umfassen, insbesondere daraus bestehen, welches für die Verbindung mit den Befestigungsmitteln des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers geeignete Verbindungsmittel aufweist.Furthermore, the protective body can have an advantageous contact surface lying in a plane of the support surface, wherein the fastening layer is connected, in particular adhesively bonded and / or welded, at least on the contact surface, so that in particular the fastening layer is preferably peripherally connected to the protective body. The Anlagefäche is preferably formed as a flat annular surface or flat, ring-like surface. An abrasive suitable for the invention comprises a working layer substantially covering a working layer, an air- and dust-permeable carrier layer, and a connecting layer having connecting means for securing the abrasive to the holding body and providing a connecting surface substantially remote from the working surface is formed so that the connecting surface in a direction substantially perpendicular to the connecting surface extending direction is substantially permeable to air and dust. A "flexible abrasive" is understood in particular to mean a grinding wheel which, in a loose state not connected to the holding body, can be bent, buckled or otherwise deformed at least in a direction perpendicular to the work surface. In this case, a "working layer" is understood as meaning, in particular, a layer having at least one abrasive medium, such as, for example, abrasive grains of known grinding media with a given abrasive grain distribution. The carrier layer may have an open-pore, in particular air and dust-permeable paper, textile foam and / or elastomer component, in particular consist thereof.

Das Schleifmittel ist dabei vorzugsweise zumindest partiell luft- und staubdurchlässig ausgestaltet. So können beispielsweise Perforationen, insbesondere Durchbrüche oder Durchbrechungen im Schleifmittel vorgesehen sein, welche über eine Arbeitsfläche des Schleifmittels verteilt angeordnet sind.In another aspect, the invention relates to a grinding system comprising a holding body according to the invention and at least one abrasive, which is fastened to the mounting surface of the holding body. The abrasive is included preferably designed at least partially air and dust permeable. For example, perforations, in particular openings or perforations in the abrasive material may be provided which are distributed over a working surface of the abrasive.

Schließlich betrifft die Erfindung in einem weiteren Aspekt eine Schleifmaschine, insbesondere ein Handschleifgerät umfassend mindestens einen erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörper und eine Antriebseinheit zum Antrieb des mindestens einen Haltekörpers. Eine bevorzugte Schleifmaschine weist darüber hinaus eine Absaugvorrichtung auf, welche einen Saugluftstrom bereitstellt, der sich von der Befestigungsfläche aus über den erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörper in Richtung auf die Absaugvorrichtung hin strömt.

An der Unterseite des Mitnehmers 19 ist eine ebene Auflagefläche 191 ausgebildet, an 10 die ein als Schleifteller 22 ausgebildeter Haltekörper 30 nach dem Stand der Technik mit einer an seiner Oberseite ausgebildeten Anlagefläche 23 ansetzbar ist. Die Verbindung zwischen Schleifteller 22 und Mitnehmer 19 erfolgt über mindestens eine Kopfschraube 24, die in mindestens eine im Mitnehmer 19 ausgebildete, axiale Bohrung 192 einschraubbar ist. An der Unterseite des Gehäuses 11 ist eine Tellerbremse 25 aus Gummi verdrehgesichert befestigt, die sich auf die Oberseite des Schleiftellers 22 auflegt.On the underside of the driver 19, a flat support surface 191 is formed, to which a designed as a sanding pad 22 holding body 30 according to the prior art with a formed on its upper surface contact surface 23 can be attached. The connection between the grinding plate 22 and driver 19 via at least one cap screw 24, which is screwed into at least one formed in the driver 19, axial bore 192. At the bottom of the housing 11, a disk brake 25 is secured against rotation against rotation, which hangs on the top of the sanding pad 22.

Der Schleifteller 22 besteht aus zwei Komponenten, einer Tragplatte 26 aus einem Hartkunststoff und einen an der Unterseite der Tragplatte 2 6 befestigten Schleifkissen 27. Die Anlagefläche 23 des Schleiftellers 22 ist zentrisch an der Tragplatte 26 ausgebildet. An der von der Tragplatte 26 abgekehrten Unterseite des Schleifkissens 27 ist eine Auflagefläche 271 für ein hier nicht dargestelltes Schleifblatt ausgebildet, die zum Befestigen des einen Velourrücken tragenden Schleifblatts einen Klettbelag 28 trägt. Bei Einsatz von selbstklebendem Schleifpapier entfällt der Klettbelag. Im Schleifteller 22 sind durch Tragplatte 26 und Schleifkissen 27 hindurchgehende Staubabsaugöffnungen 29 vorhanden, über die der Schleifstaub in eine im Gehäuse 11 ausgebildete, mit dem Ausblasstutzen 17 verbundene Staubansaugkammer mittels eines Saugluftstroms 31 hineingesaugt wird, in der das Laufrad 16 umläuft. Im hier nicht dargestellten Schleifblatt nach dem Stand der Technik sind zur Absaugung des bei einer Bearbeitung anfallenden Schleifstaubs Durchbrechungen, insbesondere Bohrungen vorgesehen, welche beim Ansetzen des Schleifblattes für eine optimale Absaugwirkung mit den Staubabsaugöffnungen 29 in Überdeckung gebracht werden müssen. Zu einer Vereinfachung des Ansetzens ist es unter anderem bekannt, die Staubabsaugöffnungen 29 größer auszuführen als die Durchbrechungen im Schleifblatt, so dass sich eine Überdeckung leichter erreichen lässt. Auch sind Schleifblätter bekannt, welche eine über die Anzahl von Staubabsaugöffnungen 29 hinausgehende Anzahl, insbesondere eine Vielzahl von Durchbrechungen aufweisen, so dass sich eine Überdeckung leichter erreichen lässt.The sanding pad 22 consists of two components, a support plate 26 made of a hard plastic and attached to the underside of the support plate 2 6 sanding pad 27. The contact surface 23 of the sanding pad 22 is formed centrally on the support plate 26. On the side facing away from the support plate 26 underside of the sanding pad 27, a support surface 271 is formed for a not shown abrasive sheet, which carries a Velcro covering 28 for attaching a velor back bearing sanding sheet. When using self-adhesive sanding paper eliminates the Velcro. in the Sanding pad 22 are provided by support plate 26 and sanding pad 27 passing dust suction openings 29 through which the sanding dust is sucked into a formed in the housing 11, connected to the blowout 17 Staubansaugkammer by means of a suction air flow 31 in which the impeller 16 rotates. In the abrasive sheet according to the prior art, not shown here, perforations, in particular holes are provided for the extraction of the resulting during processing grinding dust, which must be brought to the preparation of the abrasive sheet for optimal extraction with the Staubabsaugöffnungen 29 in coverage. To simplify the piecing, it is known, among other things, to make the dust extraction openings 29 larger than the openings in the sanding sheet so that overlapping can be achieved more easily. Sanding sheets are also known which have a number exceeding the number of dust extraction openings 29, in particular a multiplicity of perforations, so that overlapping can be achieved more easily.

Preferably, the fasteners 306 are configured to cooperate with a connecting means of the flexible abrasive article 400, not shown here, for providing a releasable connection of the flexible abrasive article 400 to the retainer body 300.

In einer Ausführung besteht die Befestigungsschicht 302 zumindest teilweise, vorzugsweise jedoch nahezu vollständig aus einem luft- und staubdurchlässigen Material 307, so dass die Befestigungsschicht 302 insbesondere in einer im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Befestigungsfläche 305 verlaufenden Richtung 308 im Wesentlichen luft- und staubdurchlässig ist. Dabei besteht das Befestigungsschicht 302 in einer besonders bevorzugten Ausführung aus einem luft- und staubdurchlässigen - vorzugsweise textilen - Klettmaterial 309.In one embodiment, the attachment layer 302 is at least partially, but preferably almost completely made of an air- and dust-permeable material 307, so that the attachment layer 302 is substantially permeable to air and dust, in particular in a direction 308 extending substantially perpendicular to the attachment surface 305. In this case, the attachment layer 302 consists in a particularly preferred embodiment of an air- and dust-permeable - preferably textile - Velcro material 309th

Der Stützkörper 301 besteht in der Ausführung nach Fig. 2 aus einem Schutzkörper 310 und einem Tragkörper 311. Zumindest der Tragkörper 311 ist dabei luft- und staubdurchlässig ausgebildet, vorzugsweise besteht der Tragkörper 311 zumindest teilweise, vorzugsweise nahezu vollständig aus einem luft- und staubdurchlässigen Material 312. Das luft- und staubdurchlässigen Material 312 kann dabei insbesondere ein Schaumstoff oder ein anderes, offenporiges Material sein.The support body 301 is in the embodiment according to Fig. 2 At least the support body 311 is formed permeable to air and dust, preferably the support body 311 is at least partially, preferably almost completely made of an air- and dust-permeable material 312. The air- and dust-permeable material 312 can in particular a foam or another, open-pored material.

In der Ausführung nach Fig. 2 umgibt der Schutzkörper 310 den Tragkörper 311 dabei vorzugsweise im Wesentlichen ringförmig, wobei unter "ringförmig umschließen" insbesondere verstanden wird, dass der Tragkörper 311 entlang seiner Umfangslinie bzw. seiner Hüllfläche 311a vom Schutzkörper 310 - insbesondere radial - nahezu vollständig, vorzugsweise vollständig umfasst oder umschlossen ist. Dabei gleicht bevorzugt eine der Stützfläche 303 zugewandte radiale Außenkontur des Schutzkörpers 310 im Wesentlichen einer Außenkontur der Stützfläche 303 , vorzugsweise ist sie mit dieser nahezu identisch.In the execution after Fig. 2 The protective body 310 preferably surrounds the support body 311 substantially annularly, wherein "annularly enclosing" means in particular that the support body 311 along its peripheral line or its enveloping surface 311a is almost completely, preferably completely enclosed or enclosed by the protective body 310, in particular radially is. In this case, a radial outer contour of the protective body 310 facing the support surface 303 preferably is substantially equal to an outer contour of the support surface 303, preferably it is almost identical to this.

Vorzugsweise besteht der Schutzkörper 310 aus einem im Vergleich zum luft- und staubdurchlässigen Material 312 luft- und staubdichteren Material 313, besonders bevorzugt aus einem luft- und staubdichten Material 313'. Das Material 313, 313' ist dabei vorzugsweise auch fester, insbesondere steifer als das Material 312, wodurch das luft- und staubdurchlässigen Material 312 des Tragkörpers 311 besser gegen mechanische Beschädigungen bei einer Benutzung des Haltekörpers 300 nach Fig. 2 geschützt werden kann.Preferably, the protective body 310 is made of a material 313 that is more air and dustproof compared to the air and dust permeable material 312, and more preferably of an air and dustproof material 313 '. The material 313, 313 'is preferably also stronger, in particular stiffer than the material 312, whereby the air and dust permeable material 312 of the support body 311 better against mechanical damage when using the holding body 300 after Fig. 2 can be protected.

Der Schutzkörper 310 weist weiters eine, im Wesentlichen in einer Ebene der Stützfläche 303 liegende Anlagefläche 314 auf. Vorzugsweise ist die Befestigungsschicht 302 dabei zumindest an bzw. auf der Anlagefläche 314 mit dem Schutzkörper 310 verbunden, insbesondere verklebt und/oder verschweißt. Die die Haltefläche 304 der Befestigungsschicht 302 ist dabei in der bevorzugten Ausgestaltung nach Fig. 2 zumindest nahezu vollständig, vorzugsweise vollständig mit der Anlagefläche 314 verbunden, insbesondere verklebt und/oder verschweißt.The protective body 310 furthermore has a contact surface 314 lying substantially in one plane of the support surface 303. Preferably, the attachment layer 302 is connected to the protective body 310 at least on or on the abutment surface 314, in particular adhesively bonded and / or welded. The retaining surface 304 of the attachment layer 302 is in the preferred Design according to Fig. 2 at least almost completely, preferably completely connected to the contact surface 314, in particular adhesively bonded and / or welded.

Gemäß Fig. 2 weist eine bevorzugte, der Stützfläche 303 des Stützkörpers 301 gegenüberliegenden Anschlussfläche 315 des Stützkörpers 301 einen im Vergleich zu Stützfläche 303 geringeren Flächeninhalt, insbesondere geringeren Außendurchmesser auf. Die Anschlussfläche 315 ist dabei nahezu vollständig, vorzugsweise vollständig durch eine Deckplatte 316 abgedeckt. Insbesondere reicht die Deckplatte 315 radial bis zu einer zweiten, der Anlagefläche 314 im Wesentlichen gegenüberliegenden Anlagefläche 317 des Schutzkörpers 310, wobei die Deckplatte 316 die Anlagefläche 317 radial zumindest teilweise, vorzugsweise nahezu vollständig überdeckt. Vorzugsweise ist die Deckplatte 316 im Bereich dieser Überlappung mit dem Schutzkörper 310 verbunden, insbesondere verklebt und/oder verschweißt.According to Fig. 2 For example, a preferred connection surface 315 of the support body 301 opposite the support surface 303 of the support body 301 has a smaller surface area compared to the support surface 303, in particular a smaller outer diameter. The connection surface 315 is almost completely, preferably completely covered by a cover plate 316. In particular, the cover plate 315 extends radially up to a second contact surface 317 of the protective body 310 which is substantially opposite the contact surface 314, wherein the cover plate 316 covers the contact surface 317 radially at least partially, preferably almost completely. Preferably, the cover plate 316 is connected in the region of this overlap with the protective body 310, in particular glued and / or welded.

Durch die Verbindung der Deckplatte 316 mit dem Schutzkörper 310 kann insbesondere eine vorteilhafte Führung eines Saugluftstroms 31 durch den Haltekörper 300 erreicht werden. Dazu weist die Deckplatte 316 gemäß Fig. 2 mindestens zwei, vorzugsweise radial gleichbeabstandete Abluftbohrungen 318 auf, welche - bei einem Betrieb des Haltekörpers 300 an einer geeigneten Schleifmaschine - einen Durchtritt des Saugluftstroms 31 durch die Deckplatte 316 im Wesentlichen in axialer Richtung, d.h. im Wesentlichen parallel zur Richtung 308 erlauben. Unter "radial gleichbeabstandet" wird dabei insbesondere verstanden, dass die Abluftbohrungen 318 in nahezu gleichem, vorzugsweise gleichem Radialabstand um ein Bewegungszentrum 319 - beispielsweise eine Rotationsachse 319a - des Haltekörpers 300 angeordnet sind. Es kann jedoch auch vorteilhaft sein, dass nur eine oder jedoch drei, vier oder mehrere Abluftbohrungen 318 vorgesehen sind. Insbesondere kann es auch von Vorteil sein, wenn die Abluftbohrung 318 nicht radial gleichbeabstandet über die Deckplatte 316 verteilt sind.By the connection of the cover plate 316 with the protective body 310, in particular an advantageous guidance of a suction air flow 31 through the holding body 300 can be achieved. For this purpose, the cover plate 316 according to Fig. 2 at least two, preferably radially equidistant exhaust air holes 318, which - in an operation of the holding body 300 on a suitable grinding machine - a passage of Saugluftstroms 31 through the cover plate 316 substantially in the axial direction, ie substantially parallel to the direction 308 allow. By "radially equidistant" is meant in particular that the exhaust holes 318 in almost the same, preferably the same radial distance about a movement center 319 - for example, a rotation axis 319 a - of the holding body 300 are arranged. However, it may also be advantageous that only one or three, four or more exhaust holes 318 are provided. In particular, it may also be advantageous if the exhaust air hole 318 are not radially equidistant distributed over the cover plate 316.

Eine bevorzugte Deckplatte 316 besteht dabei aus einem härteren, robusteren Material als der Stützkörper 301 und insbesondere der Tragkörper 311, wobei die Deckplatte 316 dabei vorzugsweise aus einem Kunststoff, wie beispielsweise aus mindestens einem Duroplasten, Thermoplasten und/oder faserverstärktem Kunststoff, und/oder einem Metall, insbesondere Leichtmetall oder einer Leichtmetalllegierung besteht.A preferred cover plate 316 consists of a harder, more robust material than the support body 301 and in particular the support body 311, wherein the cover plate 316 preferably made of a plastic, such as at least one thermoset, thermoplastics and / or fiber reinforced plastic, and / or a Metal, in particular light metal or a light metal alloy.

An der bevorzugten Deckplatte 316 des Beispiels nach Fig. 2 ist weiters eine Befestigungseinrichtung 320 angeordnet, über welche der Haltekörper 300 mit einer hier nicht gezeigten Schleifmaschine verbunden werden kann. Die Befestigungseinrichtung 320 umfasst in diesem Beispiel einen Gewindestift 320a und eine Halteplatte 320b, mit der der Gewindestift 320a fest verbunden ist und die selbst mit der Deckplatte 316 stoff-, kraft- und/oder formschlüssig verbunden ist. Im Beispiel nach Fig. 2 ist die Halteplatte 320b mit der Deckplatte 316 über Nietverbindungen 320c verbunden. Dem Fachmann sind jedoch alternative oder ergänzende Befestigungsverfahren bekannt, welche hier ebenso vorteilhaft zum Einsatz kommen können.On the preferred cover plate 316 of the example Fig. 2 Furthermore, a fastening device 320 is arranged, via which the holding body 300 can be connected to a grinding machine, not shown here. The fastening device 320 comprises in this example a threaded pin 320a and a retaining plate 320b, with which the threaded pin 320a is fixedly connected and which is itself connected to the cover plate 316 in a material, force and / or form-fitting manner. In the example below Fig. 2 For example, the holding plate 320b is connected to the cover plate 316 via rivet joints 320c. The skilled person, however, alternative or complementary fastening methods are known, which can also be used here as advantageous.

Wird ein Haltekörper 300 nach dem Bespiel der Fig. 2 mit einer Schleifmaschine 10, wie sie unter anderem aus Fig. 1 bekannt ist, eingesetzt und nach Ansetzen eines geeigneten Schleifmittels 400 in Betrieb genommen, so erzeugt das Laufrad 16 einen Saugluftstrom 31, der mit Schleifstaub beladene Luft durch das zumindest partiell luft- und staubdurchlässige Schleifmittel 400 und die luft- und staubdurchlässige Befestigungsschicht 302 des Haltekörpers 300 in den Stützkörper 301 einsaugt. Dabei verläuft der Saugluftstrom 31 zunächst im Wesentlichen parallel zur Richtung 308, also nahezu senkrecht durch die Befestigungsfläche 305, die Befestigungsschicht 302 und die Stützfläche 301 hindurch. Nach Eindringen des Saugluftstroms 31 in den Stützkörper 301, insbesondere in den Tragkörper 311 erfährt der Saugluftstrom eine Umlenkung in eine Querrichtung, also eine Umlenkung mit mindestens einer Richtungskomponente senkrecht zur Richtung 308. Im Beispiel nach Fig. 2 wird der Saugluftstrom 31 bei seinem Weg durch den Tragkörper 311 in Richtung auf die Abluftbohrungen 318 in der Deckplatte 316 hin derart gebündelt, dass der Saugluftstrom 31 wieder nahezu parallel zur Richtung 308 durch die Abluftöffnungen 318 tritt. Nun setzt der Saugluftstrom 31 seinen bereits bekannten Weg durch die Schleifmaschine 10 fort. Insgesamt erfährt der Saugluftstrom 31 bei seinem Weg durch den Haltekörper 300 jedoch eine deutlich sanftere Umlenkung, d.h. eine Umlenkung mit größeren Krümmungsradien als in Haltekörpern 30 nach dem Stand der Technik, so dass der Haltekörper 300 vorteilhaft zu geringerer Wirbelbildung und erhöhter Saugleistung beiträgt. Darüber hinaus erlaubt der Haltekörper 300 die Saugleistung einer Absaugvorrichtung möglichst gleichmäßig über die Befestigungsfläche 305 zu verteilen, so dass die Absaugung von Schleifstaub möglichst vollflächig geschehen kann.If a holding body 300 after the example of Fig. 2 with a grinder 10, as they are made, among others Fig. 1 is known, used and taken after preparation of a suitable abrasive 400 in operation, the impeller 16 generates a suction air 31, the dust laden with abrasive dust through the at least partially air and dust permeable abrasive 400 and the air and dust permeable attachment layer 302 of the holding body 300th sucked into the support body 301. In this case, the suction air flow 31 initially runs essentially parallel to the direction 308, ie almost perpendicularly through the attachment surface 305, the attachment layer 302 and the support surface 301. After penetration of the suction air flow 31 into the support body 301, in particular into the support body 311, the suction air flow undergoes a deflection in a transverse direction, ie a deflection with at least one directional component perpendicular to the direction 308 Fig. 2 the suction air stream 31 is bundled in its way through the support body 311 in the direction of the exhaust holes 318 in the cover plate 316 back so that the suction air stream 31 again almost parallel to the direction 308 passes through the exhaust ports 318. Now, the suction air flow 31 continues its already known path through the grinding machine 10. Overall, however, the suction air flow 31 experiences a much gentler deflection during its passage through the holding body 300, ie a deflection with larger radii of curvature than in holding bodies 30 according to the prior art, so that the holding body 300 advantageously contributes to less vortex formation and increased suction power. In addition, the holding body 300 allows the suction of a suction as evenly as possible over the Distribute mounting surface 305, so that the extraction of sanding dust can be done as fully as possible.

Fig. 3 zeigt eine Weiterentwicklung eines erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers 300, wie er aus Fig. 2 bereits bekannt ist. Im Folgenden wird nur auf die näher auf die Abweichungen eingegangen. Merkmale, welche wirkungsgleich zu dem im Vorhergehenden beschriebenen Beispiel ausgebildet sind, werden mit identischen Bezugszeichen bezeichnet. Fig. 3 shows a further development of a holding body 300 according to the invention, as it Fig. 2 already known. In the following, only the closer to the deviations will be discussed. Features that are designed to be equivalent to the example described above are denoted by identical reference numerals.

Der Haltekörper 300 nach Fig. 3 umfasst einen Stützkörper 301 mit einer Befestigungsschicht 302 ähnlich zur Ausführung nach Fig. 2. Der Stützkörper 301 besteht dabei aus einem im Wesentlichen luft- und staubdichten Material und weist zur Bereitstellung einer Luft- und Staubdurchlässigkeit mindestens eine, vorzugsweise zwei oder mehrere radial über die scheibenförmige Querschnittsfläche des Stützkörpers 301 verteilte Saugluftbohrungen 330 auf. Die Saugluftbohrungen 330 verbinden dabei die Anschlussfläche 315 mit dem Bereich der Stützfläche 303. Analog zum Beispiel nach Fig. 2 ist an der Anschlussfläche 315 eine Deckplatte 316 vorgesehen, welche Abluftbohrungen 318 aufweist. Besteht der Stützkörper 301 ähnlich dem ersten Ausführungsbeispiel nach Fig. 2 zumindest teilweise aus einem luft- und staubdurchlässigen, insbesondere offenporigen Material 312 kann auch auf die Saugluftbohrungen 330 verzichtet werden.The holding body 300 after Fig. 3 includes a support body 301 with a mounting layer 302 similar to the embodiment of FIG Fig. 2 , The support body 301 consists of a substantially air and dust-proof material and has at least one, preferably two or more radially distributed over the disc-shaped cross-sectional surface of the support body 301 Saugluftbohrungen 330 to provide an air and dust permeability. The Saugluftbohrungen 330 connect the terminal surface 315 with the area of the support surface 303. Analogous to example according to Fig. 2 At the connection surface 315, a cover plate 316 is provided, which has exhaust air bores 318. Does the support body 301 similar to the first embodiment after Fig. 2 At least partially from an air- and dust-permeable, in particular open-pore material 312 can be dispensed with the Saugluftbohrungen 330.

Der Stützkörper 301 gemäß Fig. 3 weist weiters in einem an die Stützfläche 303 angrenzenden Bereich 331 einen Staubraum 332 auf, in welchen insbesondere die Saugluftbohrungen 330 münden. Der Staubraum 332 erstreckt sich dabei vorzugsweise im Wesentlichen parallel zur Stützfläche 303. Der Staubraum 332 ist dabei noppen- und/oder wabenartige strukturiert. Fig. 4 zeigt dazu eine Aufsicht auf die Stützfläche 303 und den Staubraum 332 eines erfindungsgemäßen Stützkörpers 301 nach dem Beispiel der Fig. 3, wobei der Staubraum 332 durch aus dem restlichen Stützkörper hervorstehende Stützvorsprünge 333 noppenartig strukturiert ist, welche zumindest teilweise bis in die Stützfläche ragen. Die in die Stützfläche 303 ragenden Teile der Stützvorsprünge 333 bilden dabei vorzugsweise Teile der Stützfläche 303. Der Staubraum 332 bildet dabei in diesem Beispiel nach wie vor einen an sich zusammenhängenden Raum.The support body 301 according to Fig. 3 Further, in a region 331 adjoining the support surface 303, there is a dust space 332, into which the suction air bores 330 in particular open. In this case, the dust space 332 preferably extends substantially parallel to the support surface 303. The dust space 332 is structured in a knobbed and / or honeycomb-like manner. Fig. 4 shows a plan view of the support surface 303 and the dust chamber 332 of a support body 301 according to the invention according to the example of Fig. 3 , wherein the dust chamber 332 is knob-like structured by projecting from the rest of the support body support projections 333, which at least partially protrude into the support surface. The protruding into the support surface 303 parts of the support projections 333 preferably form parts of the support surface 303. The dust chamber 332 forms in this example still a coherent space itself.

Analog zu den noppenartigen Stützvorsprüngen 332 ist der Staubraum 332 auch durch Kanäle, Nuten und/oder Wandstücke wabenartig segmentiert, wobei Unterbrechungen in den Kanälen, Nuten und/oder Wandstücke sicherstellen, dass sich der Staubraum 332 im Wesentlichen als ein offener Raum über einen zusammenhängenden Bereich der Stützfläche 303 erstreckt. Es kann jedoch auch vorteilhaft sein, den Staubraum 332 in einzelne Staubraumabschnitte zu unterteilen, welche untereinander keine Querverbindung haben.Analogous to the knob-like support projections 332 of the dust chamber 332 is also honeycombed segmented by channels, grooves and / or wall pieces, wherein Interruptions in the channels, grooves and / or wall pieces ensure that the dust space 332 extends substantially as an open space over a contiguous region of the support surface 303. However, it may also be advantageous to subdivide the dust chamber 332 into individual dust compartment sections, which do not have any cross-connection with one another.

Der Staubraum 332 im Stützkörper 301 des Haltekörpers 300 nach Fig. 3 wird in Richtung der Stützfläche 303 durch die Befestigungsschicht 302 gemäß dem ersten Ausführung überdeckt bzw. luft- und staubdurchlässig abgeschlossen. Vorteilhafterweise ist dabei die Befestigungsschicht 302 mit den in die Stützfläche 303 ragenden Teilen Stützvorsprünge 333, Kanälen, Nuten und/oder Wandstücke verbunden, insbesondere verklebt und/oder verschweißt.The dust chamber 332 in the support body 301 of the holding body 300 after Fig. 3 is covered in the direction of the support surface 303 by the attachment layer 302 according to the first embodiment or closed air and dust permeable. Advantageously, the attachment layer 302 is connected to the projecting into the support surface 303 parts support projections 333, channels, grooves and / or wall pieces, in particular glued and / or welded.

Abweichend zur Ausführung nach Fig. 2 ist die Befestigungseinrichtung 320 als Befestigungsschraube 321 ausgeführt, welche durch eine zentrale Bohrung 322 im Haltekörper 300 sowie eine Durchführungsbohrung 323 in der Deckplatte 316 geführt ist und mit welcher der erfindungsgemäße Haltekörper 300 mit einer Schleifmaschine 10 verbunden werden kann.Deviating from the execution according to Fig. 2 the fastening device 320 is designed as a fastening screw 321, which is guided through a central bore 322 in the holding body 300 and a feedthrough bore 323 in the cover plate 316 and with which the holding body 300 according to the invention can be connected to a grinding machine 10.

Wird ein erfindungsgemäßer Haltekörper 300 nach dem Bespiel der Fig. 3 mit einer Schleifmaschine 10, wie sie unter anderem aus Fig. 1 bekannt ist, eingesetzt und nach Ansetzen eines geeigneten Schleifmittels 400 in Betrieb genommen, so erzeugt das Laufrad 16 einen Saugluftstrom 31, der mit Schleifstaub beladene Luft durch das zumindest partiell luft- und staubdurchlässige Schleifmittel 400 und die luft- und staubdurchlässige Befestigungsschicht 302 des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers 300 in den Staubraum 332 des Stützkörpers 301 einsaugt. Im Staubraum 332 erfolgt eine Umlenkung des Saugluftstroms 31 analog zum Beispiel nach Fig. 2, wobei in der Ausführung nach Fig. 3 zwar engere Krümmungsradien eingehalten werden müssen als im Beispiel nach Fig. 2, jedoch gewährleistet die offene Ausbildung des Staubraums 332 auch eine wirkungsvolle Umlenkung von Staubpartikeln mit größeren Abmessungen hin zu den Saugluftbohrungen, was ein Verstopfen des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers 300 wirkungsvoll verhindert.If an inventive holding body 300 after the example of Fig. 3 with a grinder 10, as they are made, among others Fig. 1 is known, used and taken after preparation of a suitable abrasive 400 in operation, the impeller 16 generates a suction air stream 31, the laden with grinding dust air through the at least partially air and dust-permeable abrasive 400 and the air and dust-permeable attachment layer 302 of the holder body according to the invention 300 in the dust chamber 332 of the support body 301 sucks. In the dust chamber 332, a deflection of the suction air flow 31 takes place analogously to the example Fig. 2 , wherein in the embodiment according to Fig. 3 Although tighter radii of curvature must be adhered to than in the example according to Fig. 2 However, the open design of the dust chamber 332 also ensures an effective deflection of dust particles with larger dimensions towards the Saugluftbohrungen, which effectively prevents clogging of the holding body 300 according to the invention.

Fig. 3 zeigt darüber hinaus eine weitere Weiterentwicklung des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers 300 als gestrichelte Zeichnungsanteile. Dabei sind im Stützkörper 301 eine oder mehrere Frischluftleitungen 334 vorgesehen, welche einen Luftstrom 335 über nicht dargestellte Zuluftöffnungen aus einer den Haltekörper 300 umschließenden Umgebung durch den Stützkörper 301 in die Nähe einer Bearbeitungszone 336 leiten. Insbesondere ist vorgesehen, dass Frischluftbohrungen 337 in die zentrale Bohrung 322 münden, so dass der Luftstrom 335 zumindest teilweise einen zentralen Bereich der Bearbeitungszone 336 überströmen kann. Fig. 3 moreover shows a further development of the holding body 300 according to the invention as dashed drawing portions. In this case, one or more fresh air lines 334 are provided in the support body 301, which an air flow 335 via not shown Zuluftöffnungen from a holding body 300 enclosing Surround by the support body 301 in the vicinity of a processing zone 336 conduct. In particular, it is provided that fresh air bores 337 open into the central bore 322, so that the air flow 335 can at least partially overflow a central region of the processing zone 336.

Fig. 5 zeigt eine alternative oder ergänzende Weiterentwicklung eines erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers 300, wie er aus Fig. 2 und/oder Fig. 3 bereits bekannt ist. Im Folgenden wird nur auf die näher auf die Abweichungen eingegangen. Merkmale, welche wirkungsgleich zu dem im Vorhergehenden beschriebenen Beispiel ausgebildet sind, werden mit identischen Bezugszeichen bezeichnet. Fig. 5 shows an alternative or additional development of a holding body 300 according to the invention, as it Fig. 2 and or Fig. 3 already known. In the following, only the closer to the deviations will be discussed. Features that are designed to be equivalent to the example described above are denoted by identical reference numerals.

Analog zum Beispiel aus Fig. 3 ist der Stützkörper 301 aus einem im Wesentlichen luft-und staubdichten Material und weist zur Bereitstellung einer Luft- und Staubdurchlässigkeit mindestens eine, vorzugsweise zwei oder mehrere radial über die scheibenförmige Querschnittsfläche des Stützkörpers 301 verteilte Saugluftbohrungen 330 auf.Analogous to the example from Fig. 3 is the support body 301 of a substantially air and dust-proof material and has to provide an air and dust permeability at least one, preferably two or more radially distributed over the disc-shaped cross-sectional surface of the support body 301 Saugluftbohrungen 330.

Abweichend zum vorhergehenden Beispiel besteht der Stützkörper 301 jedoch aus zumindest einem ersten Stützkörperteil 301A und einem zweiten Stützkörperteil 301B, wobei die mindestens zwei Stützkörperteile 301A, 301B vorzugsweise fest miteinander verbunden sind und so den Stützkörper 301 bilden. Eine Verbindung der mindestens zwei Stützkörperteile 301A, 301B kann dabei insbesondere durch Kleben, Schweißen oder einen andere stoffschlüssige Verbindung und/oder über einen Form- und/oder Kraftschluss, wie zum Beispiel Schrauben, Klemmen oder Verrasten erfolgen.In contrast to the previous example, however, the support body 301 consists of at least a first support body part 301A and a second support body part 301B, wherein the at least two support body parts 301A, 301B are preferably fixedly connected to each other and thus form the support body 301. A connection of the at least two support body parts 301A, 301B can be effected in particular by gluing, welding or another cohesive connection and / or by a positive and / or non-positive connection, such as, for example, screws, clamps or latches.

Der erste Stützkörperteil 301A weist dabei die Anschlussfläche 315 auf und stellt andererseits über eine, dem zweiten Stützkörperteil 301B zugewandte Ausnehmung 338 einen innenliegenden Staubraum 332 bereit. Der Staubraum 332 wird dabei nach Herstellung der Verbindung des zweiten Stützkörperteils 301B mit dem ersten Stützkörperteil 301A durch eine Grenzfläche 339 des zweiten Stützkörperteils 301B abgeschlossen - im Sinne von "von der restlichen Umgebung weitestgehend getrennt". Alternativ kann die Ausnehmung 338 auch im zweiten Stützkörperteil 301B und die Grenzfläche 339 im ersten Stützkörperteil 301A vorgesehen sein. Auch ist es denkbar, dass in jedem der Stützkörperteile 301A, 301B eine Ausnehmung 338 vorgesehen ist, welche nach dem Fügen der beiden Stützkörperteile 301A, 301B den Staubraum 332 bilden.The first support body part 301A in this case has the connection surface 315 and, on the other hand, provides an inner dust chamber 332 via a recess 338 facing the second support body part 301B. The dust space 332 is thereby completed after the connection of the second support body part 301B with the first support body part 301A through an interface 339 of the second support body part 301B - in the sense of "largely separated from the rest of the environment". Alternatively, the recess 338 may also be provided in the second support body part 301B and the interface 339 in the first support body part 301A. It is also conceivable that a recess 338 is provided in each of the support body parts 301A, 301B, which form the dust space 332 after the joining of the two support body parts 301A, 301B.

Das zweite Stützkörperteil 301B weist weiters eine Vielzahl von Staubluftbohrungen 340 auf, welche die an der, der Grenzfläche 339 gegenüberliegenden Stützfläche 303 angeordneten, vorzugsweise befestigten luft- und staubdurchlässigen Befestigungsschicht 302 mit der Grenzfläche 339 luft- und staubdurchlässig verbinden.The second support body part 301B furthermore has a plurality of dust air holes 340, which connect the air- and dust-permeable attachment layer 302, which is arranged on the support surface 303 opposite the boundary surface 339, to the interface 339 so as to be permeable to air and dust.

Bei einem Haltekörper 300 nach Fig. 5 findet die vorteilhafte Umlenkung und/oder Bündelung des Saugluftstroms 31 im Wesentlichen Staubraum 332 statt. Ansonsten entspricht der Haltekörper 300 nach Fig. 5 in seiner Wirkung den im Vorhergehenden beschriebenen Beispielen, auf deren Beschreibung verwiesen wird.In a holding body 300 after Fig. 5 the advantageous deflection and / or bundling of the suction air flow 31 substantially dust chamber 332 takes place. Otherwise, the holding body 300 corresponds to Fig. 5 in its effect the examples described above, to the description of which reference is made.

Abweichend von der Vorhergehenden Beschreibung des Beispiels nach Fig. 5 kann jedoch auch vorgesehen sein, dass der zweite Stützkörperteil 301B ganz oder teilweise aus dem luft- und staubdurchlässigen Material 312 gemäß dem Beispiel nach Fig. 2 besteht, so dass vorzugsweise auf die Staubluftbohrungen 340 verzichtet werden kann, was vorteilhaft eine gleichmäßigere Flächenverteilung des Saugluftstroms 31 auf der Befestigungsfläche 305 begünstigen kann.Notwithstanding the preceding description of the example according to Fig. 5 However, it can also be provided that the second support body part 301B wholly or partly from the air and dust-permeable material 312 according to the example according to Fig. 2 exists, so that preferably can be dispensed with the dusty air holes 340, which may advantageously favor a more uniform surface distribution of the Saugluftstroms 31 on the mounting surface 305.

Weitere Ausführungsbeispiele erhält der Fachmann unter anderem durch vorteilhafte Kombinationen der im Vorhergehenden beschriebenen einzelnen Ausführungsbeispiele und Weiterentwicklungen. Insbesondere kann die Kombination mit geeigneten Frischluftleitungen- und/oder Bohrungen vom Fachmann in naheliegender Weise auf die anderen Ausführungsbeispiele übertragen werden.Other embodiments, the skilled artisan, inter alia, by advantageous combinations of the above-described individual embodiments and developments. In particular, the combination with suitable fresh air ducts and / or bores can be transferred by the person skilled in the art to the other exemplary embodiments.

Eine besonders vorteilhafte Variante kann sich beispielsweise dadurch ergeben, dass ein Tragkörper 311 wie aus nach dem Beispiel nach Fig. 2 bekannt aus einem ersten Tragkörperteil 311A und einem zweiten Tragkörperteil 311B ähnlich dem Aufbau des Stützkörpers 301 nach Fig. 5 besteht, wobei insbesondere mindestens eines, vorzugsweise beide Tragkörperteile 311A, 311B aus dem luft- und staubdurchlässigen Material 312 bestehen. Vorzugsweise werden die Tragkörperteile 311A, 311B durch einen Schutzkörper 310 ähnlich der Ausführung nach Fig. 2 umschlossen. Darüber hinaus kann vorzugsweise mindestens eine Ausnehmung 338 zur Bildung eines Staubraumes 332 ähnlich der Ausführung nach Fig. 5 in mindestens einem der Tragkörperteile 311A, 311B vorgesehen sein.A particularly advantageous variant can result, for example, from the fact that a support body 311 as in the example according to Fig. 2 known from a first support member 311A and a second support member 311B similar to the structure of the support body 301 after Fig. 5 in particular, at least one, preferably both support body parts 311A, 311B consist of the air- and dust-permeable material 312. Preferably, the support body parts 311A, 311B become similar to the embodiment by a protective body 310 Fig. 2 enclosed. In addition, preferably, at least one recess 338 for forming a dust chamber 332 similar to the embodiment according to Fig. 5 be provided in at least one of the support body parts 311A, 311B.

Die Figuren 6a und 6b zeigen in Ergänzung ein Schleifmittel 400, insbesondere flexibles Schleifmittel 400, welches die Wirkung des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers 300 weiter begünstigt. Das Schleifmittel 400 umfasst dabei eine, eine Arbeitsfläche 401 im Wesentlichen bedeckende Arbeitsschicht 402, eine luft- und staubdurchlässige Trägerschicht 403 sowie eine mit den Befestigungsmitteln 306 des Haltekörpers 300 zur Befestigung des Schleifmittels 400 am Haltekörper 300 zusammenwirkende Verbindungsmittel 404 aufweisende Verbindungsschicht 405. Die Verbindungsschicht 405 stellt dabei eine der Arbeitsfläche 401 im Wesentlichen abgewandte Verbindungsfläche 406 bereit. Weiters ist die Verbindungsschicht 405 so ausgebildet, dass die Verbindungsfläche 406 in einer im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Verbindungsfläche 406 verlaufenden Richtung im Wesentlichen luft- und staubdurchlässig ist.The Figures 6a and 6b show in addition an abrasive 400, in particular flexible abrasive 400, which further favors the effect of the holding body 300 according to the invention. The abrasive 400 comprises a, a working surface 401 substantially covering working layer 402, an air and dust-permeable carrier layer 403 and a connecting layer 405 having connecting means 404 cooperating with the fastening means 306 of the holder body 300 for fastening the abrasive 400 on the holding body 300. The connecting layer 405 thereby provides a connecting surface 406 which is substantially remote from the working surface 401. Furthermore, the connection layer 405 is formed so that the connection surface 406 is substantially permeable to air and dust in a direction substantially perpendicular to the connection surface 406.

Wird ein bevorzugtes Schleifmittel 400 nach Fig. 6a, 6b an einen erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörper 300 nach einem der im Vorhergehenden beschriebenen Ausführungsbeispiele angesetzt und in einer Schleifmaschine 10 in Betrieb genommen, so erzeugt das Laufrad 16 einen Saugluftstrom 31, der mit Schleifstaub beladene Luft entlang der Richtung 308 von der Arbeitsfläche 401, durch die luft- und staubdurchlässige Trägerschicht 403 in die luft- und staubdurchlässige Verbindungssicht 405 saugt und von dort in die luft- und staubdurchlässige Befestigungsschicht 302 des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers 300 in den Stützkörper 301 einsaugt. Dabei verläuft der Saugluftstrom 31 erfindungsgemäß zunächst im Wesentlichen parallel zur Richtung 308, also nahezu senkrecht durch die Trägerschicht 403, die gemeinsame Schicht aus Verbindungsschicht 405 und Befestigungsschicht 302 sowie die Stützfläche 301 hindurch. Im weiteren folgt der Saugluftstrom 31 den im Vorhergehenden beschriebenen Wegen, auf deren Beschreibung verwiesen wird. Das Schleifmittel 400 gemäß Fig. 6a, 6b weist weiters eine optionale, zentrale Bohrung 407 auf, welche insbesondere mit einem Haltekörper 300, der mindestens eine in die zentrale Bohrung 322 mündenden Frischluftleitung 334 aufweist, von Vorteil sein kann. Das erfindungsgemäße Schleifmittel 400 kann dabei auch vorteilhaft an einem Haltekörper 30 nach dem Stand der Technik eingesetzt werden, da auch hier beim Ansetzen eines Schleifmittels 400 eine relative Ausrichtung gegenüber den Staubabsaugöffnungen 29 im Haltekörper 30 vorteilhaft unbeachtet bleiben kann. Das Schleifmittel 400 muss dazu lediglich eine Verbindungsschicht 405 mit Verbindungsmitteln 404 aufweisen, welche mit Befestigungsmitteln des Haltekörpers 30 derart zusammenwirken können, dass das Schleifmittel 400 an der Befestigungsfläche des Haltekörpers 30 anhaftet, vorteilhaft lösbar anhaftet.Will a preferred abrasive 400 after Fig. 6a, 6b attached to a holding body 300 according to the invention according to one of the embodiments described above and put into operation in a grinding machine 10, the impeller 16 generates a suction air stream 31, the air laden with grinding dust along the direction 308 of the working surface 401, through the air and dust-permeable carrier layer 403 sucks into the air and dust-permeable connection view 405 and from there into the air and dust-permeable attachment layer 302 of the holding body 300 according to the invention in the support body 301 sucks. According to the invention, the suction air flow 31 initially runs essentially parallel to the direction 308, ie almost perpendicularly through the carrier layer 403, the common layer of connecting layer 405 and fastening layer 302 and the support surface 301. In the following, the suction air flow 31 follows the above-described paths, to the description of which reference is made. The abrasive 400 according to Fig. 6a, 6b further comprises an optional, central bore 407, which in particular with a holding body 300, which has at least one opening into the central bore 322 fresh air line 334, may be advantageous. The abrasive 400 according to the invention can also be advantageously used on a holding body 30 according to the prior art, since here, too, relative to the dust extraction openings 29 in the holding body 30 can advantageously remain unnoticed when applying an abrasive 400. For this purpose, the abrasive 400 merely has to have a connecting layer 405 with connecting means 404, which can cooperate with fastening means of the holding body 30 in such a way that the abrasive 400 adheres to the fastening surface of the holding body 30, advantageously removably adheres.

Alternativ kann auch ein bereits bekanntes flexibles Schleifmittel 400', welches eine Mehrzahl von über die Arbeitsfläche 401' verteilte, das Schleifmittel 400' durchstoßende Absauglöchern 408' aufweist, vorteilhaft an einem erfindungsgemäße Haltekörper 300 eingesetzt werden. Dabei ist beim Ansetzen eines derartigen Schleifmittels 400' eine Ausrichtung der Absauglöcher 408' relativ zur Befestigungsfläche 305 vorteilhaft ohne Auswirkung auf eine Absaugleistung. Das Schleifmittel 400' muss dazu lediglich eine Verbindungsschicht 405' mit Verbindungsmitteln 404' aufweisen, welche mit den Befestigungsmitteln 306 des erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers 300 derart zusammenwirken können, dass das Schleifmittel 400' an der Befestigungsfläche 305 anhaftet, vorteilhaft lösbar anhaftet.Alternatively, an already known flexible abrasive 400 ', which has a plurality of over the work surface 401' distributed, the abrasive 400 ' piercing suction holes 408 ', are advantageously used on a holding body 300 according to the invention. An alignment of the suction holes 408 'relative to the mounting surface 305 is advantageously without effect on a suction when attaching such an abrasive 400'. The abrasive 400 'only has to have a connecting layer 405' with connecting means 404 ', which can cooperate with the fastening means 306 of the holding body 300 according to the invention such that the abrasive 400' adheres to the mounting surface 305, advantageously releasably adheres.

Neben den hier anhand eines Exzenterschleifers im Detail beschriebenen Ausführungs- und Anwendungsbeispielen eines erfindungsgemäßen Haltekörpers 300 sind dem Fachmann eine Reihe weiterer Schleifmaschinen mit Absaugeinrichtungen bekannt, welche sowohl mit im Wesentlichen kreisförmigen Haltekörper 300 - beispielsweise Orbitalschleifer und Poliermaschinen - als auch solche mit polygonalen, insbesondere im Wesentlichen dreieckigen, rechteckigem oder trapezoiden Haltekörper 300a aufweisen. Der Fachmann wird daher die offenbarte Leere mit Leichtigkeit auf eine Schleifmaschine mit polygonalen, insbesondere im Wesentlichen dreieckigen, rechteckigem oder trapezoiden Haltekörper 300a übertragen können. Auch für diese Haltekörper 300a lässt sich in analoger Weise eine vorteilhafte, erfindungsgemäße Umlenkung der Luftströmung durch den Haltekörper 300a durch einfache Modifikation der Haltekörpergeometrie erzielen, ohne erfindungswesentliche Teile der beschriebenen Ausführungen ändern zu müssen. Derartige Haltekörper 300a sollen daher explizit von der Anmeldung mit umfasst sein.In addition to the embodiments and application examples of a holding body 300 according to the invention described here in detail with reference to an eccentric grinder, a number of further grinding machines with suction devices are known to the person skilled in the art, both with substantially circular holding body 300 - for example orbital sander and polishing machines - and those with polygonal, in particular Have substantially triangular, rectangular or trapezoidal holding body 300a. The person skilled in the art will be able to transfer the disclosed emptiness with ease to a grinding machine with polygonal, in particular substantially triangular, rectangular or trapezoidal holding body 300a. An advantageous, inventive deflection of the air flow through the holding body 300a can also be achieved by simple modification of the holding body geometry for these holding bodies 300a, without having to change parts of the described embodiments that are essential to the invention. Such holding body 300a should therefore be explicitly included in the application.
