Description

Deckel für einen Klosettsitz  Lid for a toilet seat
Technisches Gebiet Technical area
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Deckel für einen Klosettsitz mit einem aus Kunststoff gefertigten Deckelkörper, der auf seiner Außenseite eine Lage mit einer bildlichen Darstellung aufweist. The invention relates to a lid for a toilet seat with a lid body made of plastic, which has on its outside a layer with a pictorial representation.
Stand der Technik State of the art
Um Deckel für einen Klosettsitz dekorativ auszugestalten, ist es beispielsweise bekannt (DE 20 2006 007 601 U1 ), in einer flachen Ausnehmung des Deckels eine bildhafte Darstellung auf einem Bildträger vorzusehen und diesen Bildträger mit einer durchsichtigen Abdeckung zu schützen. Diese Ausbildung lässt zwar einen Austausch des Bildträgers und damit der dekorativen Ausgestaltung des Deckels nach einer Abnahme der durchsichtigen Abdeckung zu, doch ergibt sich ein vergleichsweise erheblicher Konstruktionsaufwand durch das Vorsehen einer abnehmbaren, durchsichtigen Abdeckung, weil diese Abdeckung flüssigkeitsdicht angebracht werden muss. Abgesehen davon, ist der Bedarf an einer auswechselbaren dekorativen Ausgestaltung der Deckel von Klosettsitzen gering. To decorate lids for a toilet seat, it is known (DE 20 2006 007 601 U1), for example, to provide a pictorial representation on a picture carrier in a flat recess of the lid and to protect this picture carrier with a transparent cover. Although this design allows an exchange of the image carrier and thus the decorative design of the lid after a decrease in the transparent cover, but there is a comparatively considerable design effort by providing a removable, transparent cover, because this cover must be attached liquid-tight. Apart from that, the need for a replaceable decorative design of the lids of toilet seats is low.
Um Deckel für einen Klosettsitz dekorativ auszugestalten, ist es darüber hinaus bekannt (DE 200 03 344 U1 ), den Deckel oder einen dekorativen Überzug für den Deckel in dreidimensionaler Form figürlich auszugestalten. Aufgrund der durch die dreidimensionale Formgebung verbesserten Eigenstabilität kann der Deckel aus einem dünnwandigen Material, beispielsweise aus Kunststoff oder einem metallischen Werkstoff, bestehen. Wird ein geformter Überzug für den Deckel eingesetzt, so wird dieser Überzug aus einem am Deckel gehaltenen, zum Beispiel auf diesen aufschiebbaren Formkörper aus einem bevorzugterweise glasklaren Kunststoff gefertigt. Nachteilig bei solchen Überzügen ist, dass sie vom Deckel gesonderte Bauteile darstellen. Bildet der Deckel selbst die figürliche Ausgestaltung, so muss der gesamte Deckel entsprechend geformt werden. In order to design lids for a toilet seat decorative, it is also known (DE 200 03 344 U1) to design the lid or a decorative cover for the lid figuratively in three-dimensional form. Due to the improved by the three - dimensional shape inherent stability of the Cover made of a thin-walled material, such as plastic or a metallic material, exist. If a shaped cover is used for the lid, then this coating is made of a lid held on, for example, on this slide-shaped body made of a preferably crystal-clear plastic. A disadvantage of such coatings is that they represent separate components from the lid. If the lid itself forms the figurative design, then the entire lid must be shaped accordingly.
Darstellung der Erfindung Presentation of the invention
Der Erfindung liegt somit die Aufgabe zugrunde, den Deckel eines Klosettsitzes so auszugestalten, dass eine einfache dauerhafte Möglichkeit zu seiner dekorativen Ausgestaltung geschaffen wird. The invention is therefore based on the object, the lid of a toilet seat in such a way that a simple permanent way to its decorative design is created.
Ausgehend von einem Deckel für einen Klosettsitz der eingangs geschilderten Art löst die Erfindung die gestellte Aufgabe dadurch, dass die Lage mit der bildlichen Darstellung einen Bildträger aus einem geprägten Blech mit einem im Randbereich vorgesehenen, geprägten, umlaufenden Wulst umfasst und dass der Bildträger mit Hilfe eines die durch die Prägung des Blechs gebildeten Hohlräume, insbesondere des umlaufenden Wulsts, ausfüllenden Kunststoffklebers auf den Deckelkörper aufgeklebt ist. Starting from a lid for a toilet seat of the type described above, the invention solves the problem set by the fact that the situation with the pictorial representation of an image carrier from an embossed sheet with a provided in the edge region, embossed, circumferential bead comprises and that the image carrier with the help of a the cavities formed by the embossing of the sheet, in particular the circumferential bead, filling plastic adhesive is adhered to the lid body.
Durch die Ausbildung des Bildträgers aus einem geprägten Blech wird zunächst ein dauerhafter Bildträger erreicht, der keiner zusätzlichen, durchsichtigen Abdeckung bedarf. Die Prägung des Blechs mit einem umlaufenden Wulst im Randbereich stellt dabei die erforderliche Formstabilität sicher und bietet darüber hinaus die Möglichkeit, die bildliche Darstellung durch eine reliefartige Struktur zu unterstützen, sodass die bildliche Darstellung mit einer zusätzlichen Raumwirkung erweitert werden kann. Zur Verbindung des Blechs mit dem Deckelkörper aus Kunststoff wird ein Kunststoffkleber eingesetzt, der die durch die Prägung des Blechs gebildeten Hohlräume, insbesondere des umlaufenden Wulstes, zwischen dem Blech und dem Deckelkörper ausfüllt und damit für eine flüssigkeitsdichte Befestigung des Blechs auf dem Deckelkörper sorgt. Der beim Andrücken des Blechs an den Deckelkörper über den Blechrand austretende Überschuss an Kunststoffkleber wird nach dem Aushärten abgeschliffen und bildet einen bündigen, absatzlosen Übergang zwischen dem Deckelkörper und dem Blech. Due to the design of the image carrier from an embossed sheet, a permanent image carrier is first achieved, which requires no additional, transparent cover. The embossing of the sheet with a circumferential bead in the edge area ensures the required dimensional stability and also offers the possibility to support the pictorial representation by a relief-like structure, so that the pictorial representation can be extended with an additional spatial effect. To connect the sheet to the lid body made of plastic, a plastic adhesive is used, which formed by the embossing of the sheet cavities, in particular the circumferential Bülstes, between the sheet and the lid body fills and thus ensures a liquid-tight attachment of the sheet on the lid body. The excess of plastic adhesive emerging from the sheet edge when the sheet is pressed against the cover body is abraded after hardening and forms a flush, offset transition between the cover body and the sheet metal.
Die bildliche Darstellung auf dem Bildträger aus Blech kann auf unterschiedliche Weise aufgebracht werden. So ist es beispielsweise möglich, die bildliche Darstellung auf den Bildträger aus Blech aufzudrucken, was unter Umständen eine Nachbehandlung erfordert, um die erforderliche Abriebfestigkeit zu erreichen. Besonders günstige Bedingungen ergeben sich daher in diesem Zusammenhang, wenn die bildliche Darstellung eine Emailschicht auf dem Bildträger aus Blech umfasst, weil diese Emailschicht nicht nur abriebfest ist, sondern auch das Blech vor einem Korrosionsangriff wirksam schützt. The pictorial representation on the image carrier made of sheet metal can be applied in different ways. For example, it is possible to print the pictorial representation on the image carrier made of sheet metal, which may require aftertreatment in order to achieve the required abrasion resistance. Therefore, particularly favorable conditions arise in this context, when the pictorial representation includes an enamel layer on the image carrier made of sheet metal, because this enamel layer is not only resistant to abrasion, but also effectively protects the sheet from corrosive attack.
Hinsichtlich der Umrissform des Bildträgers aus Blech ergibt sich eine Vielzahl von Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten, wenn der Bildträger aus Blech nur einen Teil der Außenseite des Deckelkörpers abdeckt. In diesem Fall bildet der umlaufende Wulst des Bildträgers aus Blech einen geprägten Randwulst, damit gerade im Randbereich die Formstabilität des dünnen Blechs gewahrt werden kann. With regard to the outline of the image carrier made of sheet metal, there are a variety of design options when the image carrier made of sheet metal covers only a part of the outside of the lid body. In this case, the encircling bead of the image carrier made of sheet metal forms an embossed edge bead, so that the dimensional stability of the thin sheet can be maintained, especially in the edge region.
Deckt der Bildträger aus Blech die Außenseite des Deckelkörpers vollständig ab und schließt das Blech mit der Bodenfläche des Deckelkörpers bündig ab, so braucht auf die Oberflächenqualität des Deckelkörpers kein besonderer Wert gelegt zu werden. Das entsprechend geprägte Blech stellt ja bei dieser Ausführungsform die obere Außenhülle des Deckels dar. Wegen der den Rand des Deckelkörpers umgreifenden Schalenform des geprägten Blechs ist im unmittelbaren Randbereich keine Prägung des Blechs erforderlich. Die erforderliche Formstabilität wird allerdings nur erreicht, wenn der Bildträger aus Blech einen dem Randverlauf des Deckelkörpers folgenden, in einem Abstand von der Bodenfläche vorgesehenen Umfangswulst aufweist. Unabhängig davon, ob das Blech des Bildträgers einen Randwulst oder einen Umfangswulst aufweist, stellen diese Wülste eine sichere Verklebung zwischen dem Bildträger und dem Deckelkörper sicher, weil der Hohlraum dieser Wülste eine entsprechende Menge an einem geeigneten Kunststoffkleber aufnehmen kann. If the image carrier made of sheet metal completely covers the outer side of the lid body and closes the plate flush with the bottom surface of the lid body, then no special importance is attached to the surface quality of the lid body. The correspondingly embossed sheet represents yes in this embodiment, the upper outer shell of the lid. Because of the edge of the lid body encompassing shell shape of the embossed sheet no embossing of the sheet is required in the immediate edge region. However, the required dimensional stability is only achieved when the image carrier made of sheet metal has a peripheral edge of the lid body following, provided at a distance from the bottom surface circumferential bead. Regardless of whether the plate of the image carrier has an edge bead or a bulge, these beads ensure a secure bond between the image carrier and the lid body, because the cavity of these beads can accommodate a corresponding amount of a suitable plastic adhesive.

Fig. 3 eine der Fig. 2 entsprechende Darstellung einer Ausführungsvariante eines erfindungsgemäßen Deckels für einen Klosettsitz.  Fig. 3 is a corresponding to FIG. 2 representation of an embodiment of a lid according to the invention for a toilet seat.
Weg zur Ausführung der Erfindung Way to carry out the invention
Wie insbesondere aus den Fig. 2 und 3 ersichtlich wird, setzt sich der erfindungsgemäße Deckel eines Klosettsitzes aus einem aus Kunststoff gefertigten Deckelkörper 1 und aus einer einen Bildträger 2 bildenden äußeren Lage zusammen, die erfindungsgemäß ein geprägtes Blech 3 umfasst. Das geprägte Blech 3 weist auf seiner vom Deckelkörper 1 abgewandten Außenseite eine Emailschicht mit der bildlichen Darstellung 4 auf. Die Verbindung zwischen dem geprägten Blech 3 und dem Deckelkörper aus Kunststoff wird durch einen Kunststoffkleber 5 erreicht, der die durch die Prägung 6 des Blechs 3 gebildeten Hohlräume zwischen dem Blech 3 und dem Deckelkörper 1 ausfüllt. As can be seen in particular from FIGS. 2 and 3, the lid according to the invention of a toilet seat is composed of a lid body 1 made of plastic and of an outer layer forming an image carrier 2, which according to the invention comprises an embossed sheet 3. The embossed sheet 3 has on its side facing away from the lid body 1 outside an enamel layer with the pictorial representation 4. The connection between the embossed sheet 3 and the lid body made of plastic is achieved by a plastic adhesive 5, which fills the cavities formed by the embossment 6 of the sheet 3 between the sheet 3 and the lid body 1.
Das Blech 3 ist gemäß dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach den Fig. 1 und 2 entsprechend der Außenform des Deckelkörpers 1 geformt und bildet eine den Deckelkörper 1 auf der Außenseite vollständig abdeckende, schalenförmige Hülle, wobei die umlaufende Stirnseite 7 des Blechs 3 mit der Bodenfläche 8 des Deckelkörpers 1 bündig abschließt. Damit die erforderliche Formstabilität der schalenförmigen Hülle aus dem Blech 3 sichergestellt werden kann, weist das Blech 3 einen dem Randverlauf des Deckelkörpers 1 folgenden Umfangs- wulst 9 auf, der in einem Abstand von der Bodenfläche 8 vorgesehen ist. The sheet 3 is formed according to the embodiment of FIGS. 1 and 2 according to the outer shape of the lid body 1 and forms a Cover body 1 on the outside completely covering, shell-shaped shell, wherein the circumferential end face 7 of the sheet 3 with the bottom surface 8 of the lid body 1 is flush. So that the required dimensional stability of the shell-shaped shell can be ensured from the metal sheet 3, the metal sheet 3 has a circumferential bead 9 following the edge profile of the cover body 1, which is provided at a distance from the bottom surface 8.
Zum Unterschied zu der Fig. 2 deckt der Bildträger 2 nach dem Ausführungsbeispiel nach der Fig. 3 den Deckelkörper 1 nur teilweise ab. Es bleibt beispielsweise ein Randbereich 10 zwischen der Oberseite und der Bodenfläche 8 des Deckelkörpers 1 frei. Dies erlaubt eine einfachere Ausbildung des Blechs 3, das ja nicht dem gekrümmten Randbereich 10 des Deckelkörpers 1 folgen muss. In diesem Fall wird ein dem Blechrand folgender Randwulst 1 1 vorgesehen, der einen wesentlichen Beitrag für die Formstabilität des Bildträgers 2 leisten kann. Damit sich durch die Stirnseite 7 des Blechs 3 keine Stufe in der Außenfläche des Deckels ergibt, kann der beim Aufkleben des Blechs 3 auf den Deckelkörper 1 über den Blechrand austretende, überschüssige Kunststoffkleber 5 nach seinem Aushärten bündig mit dem Umfangsrand des Blechs 3 verschliffen werden, wie dies in der Fig. 3 angedeutet ist. In contrast to the Fig. 2 covers the image carrier 2 according to the embodiment of FIG. 3, the lid body 1 only partially. For example, an edge region 10 remains free between the upper side and the bottom surface 8 of the lid body 1. This allows a simpler design of the sheet 3, which does not have to follow the curved edge region 10 of the lid body 1. In this case, a rim bead 1 1 following the edge of the sheet metal is provided, which can make a significant contribution to the dimensional stability of the image carrier 2. So that no level in the outer surface of the lid results from the end face 7 of the sheet 3, the excess plastic adhesive 5 emerging from the sheet metal edge when gluing the sheet 3 to the cover body 1 can be ground flush with the peripheral edge of the sheet 3 after it has hardened, as indicated in Fig. 3.
