It is crucial, however, that the seal assembly, when the door is in its closed position, is in permanent contact with the substrate or a floor panel of the cabinet body to securely close a gap elsewhere there.
  • the sealing arrangement ensures that essentially no dirt and essentially no pests can penetrate into the cabinet.
  • the thus improved hygiene inside the cabinet increases both the ease of use and the life of a corresponding cabinet. Because otherwise required cleaning with partially aggressive cleaning agents, the material from which the cabinet is constructed, can sometimes be attacked.

  • the seal arrangement prevents foliage or other dirt from entering the interior of the cabinet (which is regularly performed without a seal arrangement due to a suction due to rising air inside the cabinet).
  • the sealing arrangement ensures a slight damping with respect to noise and / or vibration of the door and the bottom closure element of the cabinet.
  • a cabinet equipped with such a sealing arrangement is particularly suitable to be used in environments in which low noise when using the cabinet is desired or advantageous.

  • the sealing arrangement extends substantially over the entire width of the bottom closure element. This can ensure that otherwise occurring gaps in the area of the entire bottom closure element are securely covered or closed.
  • the bottom closure element extends substantially over the entire width of the door. It can thus be achieved that the otherwise occurring gaps or gaps between the door and the substrate on which the cabinet is arranged, or a base of the cabinet or a bottom plate of the cabinet body not only partially, but completely covered or closed by the seal assembly of the bottom closure element become.
  • the sealing arrangement is designed as a brush arrangement.

As a result, the disadvantages known from the prior art can be overcome even with cabinets already set up.
  • Suitable fastening means are in particular screws. Because by a screw connection ensures that the bottom closure element when needed (for example, when the seal assembly is worn by a high number of opening and closing operations of the door) can be replaced by a new bottom closure element. As a result, the overall service life of a cabinet equipped with such a bottom closure element is increased while the comfort remains the same.

  • the bottom closure element is not designed as a separate component, but as an integral part of the door. This has the advantage that such a door equipped with the final assembly can be used directly without even a bottom closure element would have to be mounted. However, the variability of this embodiment is less than in execution of the bottom closure element as a separate component. Because if the bottom closure element is integrated into the door, a height adjustment of the bottom end element is only possible with difficulty. Furthermore, an exchange of the bottom closure element, for example, after a wear of the seal assembly only relatively difficult.
  • the bottom closure element does not change its relative position to the door upon movement of the door. This can be accomplished, for example, that it is connected by appropriate fasteners in a rotationally and slidably manner with the door. By dispensing with sliding movements of the bottom closure element relative to the door, a longer service life of the door assembly is achieved. Otherwise, it could easily come to a leaching of the connection between the bottom closure element and the door, whereby the bottom closure element or its seal assembly could drag in an undesirably strong manner over a substrate.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Schrank zur Aufnahme eines Gegenstandes gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1, ein Bodenabschlusselement für eine Tür eines solchen Schrankes gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 12 sowie eine Türbaugruppe für einen derartigen Schrank gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 13.The present invention relates to a cabinet for receiving an article according to the preamble of claim 1, a bottom closure element for a door of such a cabinet according to the preamble of claim 12 and a door assembly for such a cabinet according to the preamble of claim 13.

Aus dem Stand der Technik sind verschiedene Schränke zur Aufnahme von Gegenständen, wie etwa Müllcontainerschränke, Geräteschränke, Depotschränke und Fahrradboxen bekannt, die regelmäßig mit einer Tür zum Öffnen des Schrankes versehen sind. Zwischen der Tür und einem Schrankkorpus beziehungsweise zwischen der Tür und einem Untergrund, auf dem der Schrank angeordnet ist, verbleibt dabei regelmäßig ein kleinerer oder größerer Spalt, durch den Verunreinigungen und Ungeziefer in das Innere des Schrankes dringen können.Various cabinets for holding objects, such as refuse container cabinets, equipment cabinets, storage cabinets and bicycle boxes are known from the prior art, which are regularly provided with a door for opening the cabinet. Between the door and a cabinet body or between the door and a substrate on which the cabinet is arranged, there remains regularly a smaller or larger gap through which impurities and vermin can penetrate into the interior of the cabinet.

Dies ist unerwünscht, da insbesondere Ungeziefer, wie etwa Ratten, sich dauerhaft in einem derartigen Schrank einnisten können und damit ein Hygienerisiko für die Benutzer des Schrankes darstellen. DE 20 207 411 U1 beschreibt einen Schrank gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruch 1. US 5 465 532 A offenbart ein Bodenabschlusselement mit einer Dichtungsanordnung für eine Sicherheitstür. Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, diese aus dem Stand der Technik bekannte Nachteile zu überwinden und einen Schrank zur Aufnahme eines Gegenstandes bereitzustellen, bei dem das Eindrängen von Schmutz oder Ungeziefer erheblich erschwert oder sogar gänzlich vermieden wird.This is undesirable because, in particular, pests, such as rats, can permanently nest in such a cabinet and thus pose a health risk to the user of the cabinet. DE 20 207 411 U1 describes a cabinet according to the preamble of claim 1. US 5,465,532 A discloses a bottom closure member having a seal assembly for a security door. The present invention has for its object to overcome these known from the prior art disadvantages and to provide a cabinet for receiving an object in which the penetration of dirt or vermin is considerably more difficult or even completely avoided.

Diese Aufgabe wird mit einem Schrank zur Aufnahme eines Gegenstandes mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Ein derartiger Schrank weist einen Schrankkorpus und mindestens eine Türbaugruppe auf. Die Türbaugruppe ist dabei beweglich an den Schrankkorpus angelenkt und kann zwischen einer geöffneten und einer geschlossenen Position hin- und herbewegt werden.This object is achieved with a cabinet for receiving an article having the features of claim 1. Such a cabinet has a cabinet body and at least one door assembly. The door assembly is movably hinged to the cabinet body and can be moved between an open and a closed position back and forth.

Der erfindungsgemäß beanspruchte Schrank zeichnet sich dadurch aus, dass die mindestens eine Türbaugruppe eine Tür und ein Bodenabschlusselement aufweist, das in einem unteren Bereich der Tür angeordnet ist. Auf einer ersten Seite des Bodenabschlusselementes, welche zu einem Untergrund, auf dem der Schrank angeordnet ist, hin orientiert ist, weist das Bodenabschlusselement eine Dichtungsanordnung auf. Die Dichtungsanordnung steht dabei mit dem Untergrund, auf dem der Schrank angeordnet ist, oder mit einer Bodenplatte des Schrankkorpus in Kontakt, wenn sich die Türbaugruppe in ihrer geschlossenen Position befindet. Dadurch werden Lücken, die bei den aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Schränken zur Unterstellung von Gegenständen auftreten, durch die Dichtungsanordnung verschlossen. Gleichzeitig ist die Dichtungsanordnung derart flexibel, dass sie ein Öffnen der Tür nicht behindert. Vielmehr kann die Dichtungsanordnung beim Öffnen der Tür über den Untergrund, auf dem der Schrank angeordnet ist, schleifen, so dass ein uneingeschränktes Öffnen der Tür möglich ist. Wenn der Schrank auf einem Sockel angeordnet ist, bleibt die Dichtungsanordnung regelmäßig nur beim Beginn des Öffnens der Tür in Kontakt mit dem Untergrund oder der Bodenplatte. Anschließend kann sie durch die Luft geschwenkt werden, ohne den Untergrund, auf dem der Schrank angeordnet ist, zu kontaktieren. Entscheidend ist jedoch, dass die Dichtungsanordnung dann, wenn sich die Tür in ihrer geschlossenen Position befindet, in dauerhaftem Kontakt mit dem Untergrund oder einer Bodenplatte des Schrankkorpus steht, um einen anderweitig dort vorhandenen Spalt sicher zu verschließen.The cabinet claimed according to the invention is characterized in that the at least one door assembly has a door and a bottom closure element which is arranged in a lower region of the door. On a first side of the bottom closure element, which is oriented toward a base on which the cabinet is arranged, which has Floor termination element on a seal arrangement. The seal assembly is in contact with the substrate on which the cabinet is located or with a bottom panel of the cabinet body when the door assembly is in its closed position. As a result, gaps that occur in the known from the prior art cabinets for placing objects, sealed by the seal assembly. At the same time, the seal assembly is so flexible that it does not hinder opening the door. Rather, the seal assembly when opening the door on the ground on which the cabinet is arranged, grind, so that unrestricted opening of the door is possible. When the cabinet is placed on a pedestal, the gasket assembly will regularly remain in contact with the substrate or floorboard only when the door is opened. Then it can be swung through the air without contacting the ground on which the cabinet is located. It is crucial, however, that the seal assembly, when the door is in its closed position, is in permanent contact with the substrate or a floor panel of the cabinet body to securely close a gap elsewhere there.

Durch das Verschließen anderweitig vorhandener Öffnungen beziehungsweise Spalten sorgt die Dichtungsanordnung dafür, dass im Wesentlichen kein Schmutz und im Wesentlichen keine Ungeziefer in den Schrank eindringen können. Durch die derart verbesserte Hygiene im Inneren des Schrankes steigen sowohl der Bedienkomfort als auch die Lebensdauer eines entsprechenden Schrankes. Denn durch die andernfalls erforderliche Reinigung mit teilweise aggressiven Reinigungsmitteln kann das Material, aus dem der Schrank aufgebaut ist, mitunter angegriffen werden.By sealing off any other openings or gaps, the sealing arrangement ensures that essentially no dirt and essentially no pests can penetrate into the cabinet. The thus improved hygiene inside the cabinet increases both the ease of use and the life of a corresponding cabinet. Because otherwise required cleaning with partially aggressive cleaning agents, the material from which the cabinet is constructed, can sometimes be attacked.

Durch die Dichtungsanordnung kann auch ein sicherer und dichter Abschluss zu einem etwas unebenen Untergrund erreicht werden.The seal assembly also provides a secure and tight seal to a somewhat uneven ground.

Durch die bessere Abdichtung zum Untergrund mittels der Dichtungsanordnung wird auch ein seit vielen Jahren existierendes Problem hinsichtlich eines sich im Schrankinnern ausbildenden Kaminzugs gelöst. Die Dichtungsanordnung verhindert durch die Unterbindung der Entstehung eines Kaminzuges, dass Laub oder anderer Schmutz an- und in das Schrankinnere eingezogen werden kann (was ohne Dichtungsanordnung durch einen Sog aufgrund im Schrankinnern aufsteigender Luft regelmäßig geschieht).Due to the better sealing to the ground by means of the seal arrangement, a problem existing for many years with respect to a chimney draft forming inside the cabinet is also solved. By preventing the formation of a chimney draft, the seal arrangement prevents foliage or other dirt from entering the interior of the cabinet (which is regularly performed without a seal arrangement due to a suction due to rising air inside the cabinet).

Darüber hinaus gewährleistet die Dichtungsanordnung eine leichte Dämpfung in Bezug auf Lärm und/oder Vibrationen der Tür und des Bodenabschlusselements des Schrankes. Somit eignet sich ein mit einer solchen Dichtungsanordnung ausgestatteter Schrank insbesondere dazu, in Umgebungen eingesetzt zu werden, in denen eine niedrige Geräuschentwicklung bei der Benutzung des Schrankes gewünscht oder von Vorteil ist.In addition, the sealing arrangement ensures a slight damping with respect to noise and / or vibration of the door and the bottom closure element of the cabinet. Thus, a cabinet equipped with such a sealing arrangement is particularly suitable to be used in environments in which low noise when using the cabinet is desired or advantageous.

Der erfindungsgemäß beanspruchte Schrank ist insbesondere für den Einsatz im Außenbereich vorgesehen.The invention claimed cabinet is particularly intended for use in outdoor areas.

In einer Ausgestaltung erstreckt sich die Dichtungsanordnung im Wesentlichen über die gesamte Breite des Bodenabschlusselementes. Dadurch kann gewährleistet werden, dass anderweitig auftretende Lücken im Bereich des gesamten Bodenabschlusselementes sicher überdeckt beziehungsweise verschlossen werden.In one embodiment, the sealing arrangement extends substantially over the entire width of the bottom closure element. This can ensure that otherwise occurring gaps in the area of the entire bottom closure element are securely covered or closed.

In einer weiteren Variante erstreckt sich das Bodenabschlusselement im Wesentlichen über die gesamte Breite der Tür. Dadurch kann erreicht werden, dass die anderweitig auftretenden Lücken beziehungsweise Spalten zwischen der Tür und dem Untergrund, auf dem der Schrank angeordnet ist, oder einem Sockel des Schrankes beziehungsweise einer Bodenplatte des Schrankkorpus nicht nur abschnittsweise, sondern vollständig durch die Dichtungsanordnung des Bodenabschlusselementes überdeckt beziehungsweise verschlossen werden. Selbstverständlich ist es möglich, statt eines einzigen Bodenabschlusselementes, das sich über die gesamte Breite der Tür erstreckt, zwei oder mehr Bodenabschlusselemente zu verwenden, deren Breiten sich in Summe über die gesamte Breite der Tür erstrecken, um denselben Effekt zu erzielen.In a further variant, the bottom closure element extends substantially over the entire width of the door. It can thus be achieved that the otherwise occurring gaps or gaps between the door and the substrate on which the cabinet is arranged, or a base of the cabinet or a bottom plate of the cabinet body not only partially, but completely covered or closed by the seal assembly of the bottom closure element become. Of course, it is possible, instead of a single bottom closure element that extends across the entire width of the door, to use two or more bottom closure elements whose widths extend in total over the entire width of the door to achieve the same effect.

In einer Variante ist die Dichtungsanordnung als Bürstenanordnung ausgestaltet. Eine derartige Bürstenanordnung weist eine Vielzahl von Borsten auf, die derart dicht zueinander angeordnet sind, dass zwischen ihnen im Wesentlichen kein Raum verbleibt, durch den Schmutz oder Ungeziefer in das Innere des Schrankes treten könnte. Durch Ausgestaltung der Dichtungsanordnung in Form einer derartigen Bürstenanordnung kann auf besonders einfache Weise eine gewünschte Flexibilität der Dichtungsanordnung erreicht werden.In a variant, the sealing arrangement is designed as a brush arrangement. Such a brush assembly has a plurality of bristles which are arranged so close to each other that substantially no space remains between them, could pass through the dirt or vermin into the interior of the cabinet. By designing the sealing arrangement in the form of such a brush arrangement, a desired flexibility of the sealing arrangement can be achieved in a particularly simple manner.

In einer weiteren Variante wird das Bodenabschlusselement als separates Bauteil hergestellt und mit der Tür des Schrankes durch geeignete Befestigungsmittel verbunden. Die Herstellung des Bodenabschlusselementes als separates Bauteil hat den Vorteil, dass auch bereits existierende Schränke, wie etwa Müllcontainerschränke, durch entsprechende Bodenabschlusselemente nachgerüstet werden können. Dadurch lassen sich auch bei bereits aufgestellten Schränken die aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Nachteile überwinden.In a further variant, the bottom closure element is produced as a separate component and connected to the door of the cabinet by suitable fastening means. The production of the bottom closure element as a separate component has the advantage that even existing cabinets, such as refuse container cabinets, can be retrofitted by appropriate floor finishing elements. As a result, the disadvantages known from the prior art can be overcome even with cabinets already set up.

Geeignete Befestigungsmittel sind insbesondere Schrauben. Denn durch eine Schraubverbindung wird sichergestellt, dass das Bodenabschlusselement bei Bedarf (beispielsweise, wenn die Dichtungsanordnung durch eine hohe Anzahl von Öffnungs- und Schließvorgängen der Tür abgenutzt ist) durch ein neues Bodenabschlusselement ausgetauscht werden kann. Dadurch wird die Gesamtlebensdauer eines mit einem solchen Bodenabschlusselement ausgestatten Schrankes bei gleichbleibendem Komfort erhöht.Suitable fastening means are in particular screws. Because by a screw connection ensures that the bottom closure element when needed (for example, when the seal assembly is worn by a high number of opening and closing operations of the door) can be replaced by a new bottom closure element. As a result, the overall service life of a cabinet equipped with such a bottom closure element is increased while the comfort remains the same.

In einer weiteren Variante weist das Bodenabschlusselement auf einer zweiten Seite, die der ersten Seite gegenüberliegt und zur Tür hin orientiert ist, einen Befestigungsabschnitt auf. Dieser Befestigungsabschnitt ist dafür vorgesehen und eingerichtet, das Bodenabschlusselement an der Tür zu befestigen. Durch eine Vormontage des Bodenabschlusselementes an der Tür können zudem Türen mit angebrachtem Bodenabschlusselement bereitgestellt werden. Der Befestigungsabschnitt kann beispielsweise in Form eines flachen, sich flächig erstreckenden Bleches ausgestaltet sein. Der Befestigungsabschnitt und die Dichtungsanordnung sind vorzugsweise fest miteinander verbunden. Dadurch wird ein sicherer Halt der Dichtungsanordnung an der Tür gewährleitstet. Wenn die Dichtungsanordnung durch häufige Benutzung abgenutzt sein sollte, kann dann das gesamte Bodenabschlusselement ausgetauscht werden, um die Tür des Schrankes mit einer neuen Dichtungsanordnung auszustatten.In a further variant, the bottom closure element has a fastening section on a second side, which is opposite to the first side and oriented towards the door. This attachment portion is provided and arranged to fix the bottom end member to the door. By pre-assembly of the bottom closure element on the door also doors can be provided with attached bottom end element. The attachment portion may be configured, for example, in the form of a flat sheet extending flat. The attachment portion and the seal assembly are preferably fixed to each other. This ensures a secure hold of the seal assembly on the door. If the seal assembly should be worn by frequent use, then the entire bottom closure element can be replaced to equip the door of the cabinet with a new seal assembly.

In einer weiteren Variante weist das Bodenabschlusselement zumindest einen Durchbruch auf, der in Form eines Langlochs ausgestaltet ist. Der Durchbruch ist dafür vorgesehen und eingerichtet, dass ein Befestigungsmittel durch ihn hindurchgreift, wenn das Bodenabschlusselement an der Tür befestigt ist. Vorzugsweise sind mindestens zwei Durchbrüche in Form zweier Langlöcher vorgesehen. Dadurch lässt sich das Bodenabschlusselement besonders einfach an der Tür befestigen. Die Ausgestaltung der Durchbrüche als Langlöcher hat den Vorteil, dass die relative Höhe des Bodenabschlusselementes und damit der Dichtungsanordnung über dem Untergrund, auf dem der Schrank angeordnet ist, oder über einen Sockel beziehungsweise einer Bodenplatte des Schrankkorpus bei der Erstmontage variiert werden kann, damit einerseits ein sicheres Verschließen eines sonst dort auftretenden Spaltes gewährleitstet ist, andererseits aber der durch die Dichtungsanordnung aufgebrachte Widerstand möglichst gering gehalten wird, um das Öffnen und Schließen der Tür nicht zu behindern.In a further variant, the bottom closure element has at least one opening, which is configured in the form of a slot. The aperture is intended and arranged for a fastener to reach through it when the bottom closure member is attached to the door. Preferably, at least two openings in the form of two elongated holes are provided. This makes it particularly easy to attach the bottom closure element to the door. The design of the apertures as slots has the advantage that the relative height of the bottom end element and thus the seal assembly on the ground on which the cabinet is arranged, or a base or a bottom plate of the cabinet body during initial assembly can be varied, so on the one hand on the other hand, however, the resistance applied by the sealing arrangement is kept as low as possible so as not to obstruct the opening and closing of the door.

In einer alternativen Ausgestaltung ist das Bodenabschlusselement nicht als separates Bauteil ausgeführt, sondern als integraler Bestandteil der Tür. Dies hat den Vorteil, dass eine derart ausgestattete Tür bei der Endmontage unmittelbar eingesetzt werden kann, ohne dass noch ein Bodenabschlusselement montiert werden müsste. Allerdings ist die Variabilität dieser Ausgestaltung geringer als bei Ausführung des Bodenabschlusselementes als separates Bauteil. Denn wenn das Bodenabschlusselement in die Tür integriert ist, wird eine Höhenanpassung des Bodenabschlusselementes nur schwieriger möglich. Ferner ist ein Austausch des Bodenabschlusselementes, beispielsweise nach einem Verschleiß der Dichtungsanordnung nur verhältnismäßig schwierig möglich.In an alternative embodiment, the bottom closure element is not designed as a separate component, but as an integral part of the door. This has the advantage that such a door equipped with the final assembly can be used directly without even a bottom closure element would have to be mounted. However, the variability of this embodiment is less than in execution of the bottom closure element as a separate component. Because if the bottom closure element is integrated into the door, a height adjustment of the bottom end element is only possible with difficulty. Furthermore, an exchange of the bottom closure element, for example, after a wear of the seal assembly only relatively difficult.

In einer Variante verändert das Bodenabschlusselement seine relative Position zur Tür bei einer Bewegung der Tür nicht. Dies kann beispielsweise dadurch bewerkstelligt werden, dass es durch entsprechende Befestigungsmittel in dreh- und gleitfester Art und Weise mit der Tür verbunden ist. Durch einen Verzicht auf Gleitbewegungen des Bodenabschlusselementes relativ zur Tür wird eine längere Lebensdauer der Türbaugruppe erreicht. Denn andernfalls könnte es leicht zu einem Ausleiern der Verbindung zwischen dem Bodenabschlusselement und der Tür kommen, wodurch das Bodenabschlusselement beziehungsweise dessen Dichtungsanordnung in unerwünscht starker Weise über einen Untergrund schleifen könnte.In one variant, the bottom closure element does not change its relative position to the door upon movement of the door. This can be accomplished, for example, that it is connected by appropriate fasteners in a rotationally and slidably manner with the door. By dispensing with sliding movements of the bottom closure element relative to the door, a longer service life of the door assembly is achieved. Otherwise, it could easily come to a leaching of the connection between the bottom closure element and the door, whereby the bottom closure element or its seal assembly could drag in an undesirably strong manner over a substrate.

Der Gegenstand, für dessen Aufnahme der Schrank vorgesehen und hergerichtet ist, ist vorzugsweise ein Abfallsammelbehälter (wie etwa ein Müllcontainer), ein Fahrrad, ein Rollator, ein zu Benutzung durch Kinder vorgesehenes Fahrzeug (wie etwa ein Kinderfahrrad, ein Dreirad, ein Roller oder ein Bobby-Car), ein Paket oder ein Gartengerät. Selbstverständlich kann der Schrank zur Aufnahme mehrerer dieser Gegenstände - auch unterschiedlichen Typs - vorgesehen und eingerichtet sein. Das heißt, der Schrank kann beispielsweise ein Müllcontainerschrank, ein Geräteschrank, eine Fahrradbox oder eine Depotbox sein. Derartige Schränke werden regelmäßig im Außenbereich aufgestellt, so dass sich ohne die erfindungsgemäß beanspruchte Lösung eines Bodenabschlusselementes mit Dichtungsanordnung leicht eine Verschmutzung oder Verunreinigung ergibt.The article for which the cabinet is intended and prepared for reception is preferably a refuse collection container (such as a dumpster), a bicycle, a walker, a vehicle intended for use by children (such as a children's bicycle, a tricycle, a scooter or a Bobby-car), a package or a gardening tool. Of course, the cabinet for receiving several of these items - even of different types - be provided and set up. That is, the cabinet may be, for example, a garbage container cabinet, a device cabinet, a bicycle box or a depot box. Such cabinets are regularly placed in the outer area, so that without the invention claimed solution of a bottom closure element with sealing arrangement easily results in contamination or contamination.

In einer Variante weist der Schrankkorpus Beton, Metall und/oder Kunststoff auf oder besteht vollständig aus diesen Materialien. Beispielsweise kann der Schrankkorpus vollständig aus Beton gebildet sein. Ferner kann er vollständig aus Metall gebildet sein. Auch Mischmaterialien sind zur Herstellung des Schrankkorpus denkbar und vorgesehen.In a variant, the cabinet body concrete, metal and / or plastic on or consists entirely of these materials. For example, the cabinet body may be formed entirely of concrete. Further, it may be formed entirely of metal. Also, mixed materials are conceivable and provided for the production of the cabinet body.

Die der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe wird auch durch ein Bodenabschlusselement für eine Tür eines Schrankes zur Aufnahme eines Gegenstandes gelöst. Ein derartiges Bodenabschlusselement weist auf einer ersten Seite, die im bestimmungsgemäßen montierten Zustand des Bodenabschlusselementes zu einem Untergrund hin orientiert ist, auf welchem einem mit dem Bodenabschlusselement versehener Schrank angeordnet ist, eine Dichtungsanordnung auf. Diese Dichtungsanordnung ist dafür vorgesehen und eingerichtet, mit dem Untergrund, auf dem der Schrank angeordnet ist, oder mit einer Bodenplatte des Schrankes in Kontakt zu stehen, wenn sich eine Tür, an die das Bodenabschlusselement montiert ist, in ihrer geschlossenen Position befindet. Ein derartiges Bodenabschlusselement ist insbesondere dafür geeignet, bereits existierende Türen von Schränken derart nachzurüsten, dass sie die vorteilhaften Wirkungen der vorliegend beschriebenen Erfindung aufweisen.The object underlying the invention is also achieved by a bottom closure element for a door of a cabinet for receiving an object. Such a bottom closure element has on a first side, which is oriented in the intended assembled state of the bottom closure element to a substrate on which is arranged a provided with the bottom closure element cabinet, a Seal arrangement on. This seal assembly is intended and adapted to be in contact with the substrate on which the cabinet is located or with a floor panel of the cabinet when a door to which the floor closure member is mounted is in its closed position. Such a bottom closure element is in particular suitable for retrofitting existing doors of cabinets in such a way that they have the advantageous effects of the invention described here.

Die der Erfindung zugrundeliegende Aufgabe wird darüber hinaus durch eine Türbaugruppe für einen Schrank zur Aufnahme eines Gegenstandes gelöst. Eine derartige Türbaugruppe weist eine Tür und ein in einem unteren Türbereich angeordnetes Bodenabschlusselement auf. Das Bodenabschlusselement weist auf einer ersten Seite, die zu einem Untergrund hin orientiert ist, auf welchen ein mit der Türbaugruppe versehener Schrank angeordnet ist, eine Dichtungsanordnung auf. Diese Dichtungsanordnung ist - wie bereits oben erläutert - dafür vorgesehen und eingerichtet, mit dem Untergrund, auf dem der Schrank angeordnet ist, oder mit einer Bodenplatte des Schrankes in Kontakt zu stehen, wenn sich die Tür in ihrem bestimmungsgemäß montierten Zustand in ihrer geschlossenen Position befindet. Eine derartige Türbaugruppe kann beispielsweise eine klassische Türbaugruppe eines Schrankes ersetzen, wenn eine Nachrüstung durch ein Bodenabschlusselement in der oben dargelegten Art und Weise nicht möglich sein sollte.The object underlying the invention is also achieved by a door assembly for a cabinet for receiving an object. Such a door assembly has a door and a bottom closure element arranged in a lower door region. The bottom closure member has a seal assembly on a first side oriented toward a base on which a cabinet provided with the door assembly is disposed. This seal assembly is - as already explained above - provided and adapted to be in contact with the substrate on which the cabinet is arranged, or with a bottom plate of the cabinet when the door is in its intended mounted state in its closed position , Such a door assembly may, for example, replace a classic door assembly of a cabinet if retrofitting by a bottom closure member in the manner set forth above should not be possible.

Sämtliche der vorstehend beschriebenen alternativen Ausführungsformen und Varianten des Schrankes zur Aufnahme eines Gegenstandes sind in analoger Weise auf das beanspruchte Bodenabschlusselement und die beanspruchte Türbaugruppe übertragbar.All of the above-described alternative embodiments and variants of the cabinet for receiving an object can be transferred in an analogous manner to the claimed bottom closure element and the claimed door assembly.

Die Figur 1 zeigt einen Müllcontainerschrank 1 als Schrank zur Aufnahme eines Gegenstandes, nämlich eines Müllcontainers. Der Müllcontainerschrank weist einen Schrankkorpus 2 sowie zwei Einwurfklappen 3 auf, über die Abfall in einen im Inneren des Müllcontainerschrankes 1 angeordneten Müllcontainer eingeworfen werden kann. Unterhalb der beiden Einwurfklappen 3 weist der Müllcontainerschrank 1 zwei Türen 4 auf, die unabhängig voneinander geöffnet werden können, um einen Müllcontainer in das Innere des Müllcontainerschrankes 1 einzustellen oder den Müllcontainer aus dem Inneren des Müllcontainerschrankes 1 zu entnehmen. Zu diesem Zweck sind die beiden Türen 4 mittels Scharnieren 5 mit dem Schrankkorpus 2 verbunden. Im unteren Bereich der beiden Türen 4 ist jeweils ein Bodenabschlussblech 6 als Bodenabschlusselement angebracht. Dieses Bodenabschlusselement 6 wird in den nachfolgenden Figuren noch näher beschrieben werden.The FIG. 1 shows a garbage container cabinet 1 as a cabinet for receiving an object, namely a dumpster. The refuse container cabinet has a cabinet body 2 and two flap doors 3, on the waste can be thrown into a arranged in the interior of the refuse container cabinet 1 dumpster. Below the two dump flaps 3, the dumpster 1 has two doors 4, which can be opened independently to set a dumpster in the interior of the dumpster 1 or remove the dumpster from the interior of the dumpster 1. For this purpose, the two doors 4 are connected by hinges 5 to the cabinet body 2. In the lower region of the two doors 4, a bottom end plate 6 is in each case attached as a bottom closure element. This bottom closure element 6 will be described in more detail in the following figures.

Die Figur 2A zeigt eine rückseitige Ansicht der Tür 4 des Müllcontainerschrankes 1 der Figur 1 in einer Explosionsdarstellung. In dieser Darstellung ist zu sehen, dass das Bodenabschlussblech 6 mittels zweier Schrauben 7 an der Tür 4 des Müllcontainerschrankes 1 befestigt ist. Die Schrauben greifen dabei durch zwei Durchbrüche 8 hindurch, um in Nietmuttern 9, die in die Tür 4 eingesetzt sind, festgeschraubt zu werden. Auf diese Art und Weise wird das Bodenabschlussblech 6 an einem unteren Rahmenelement 10 der Tür 4 befestigt. Durch die Ausgestaltung der beiden Durchbrüche 8 in Form zweier Langlöcher ist dabei eine Variabilität der Höhe des Bodenabschlussbleches 6 über einem entsprechenden Untergrund möglich.The FIG. 2A shows a rear view of the door 4 of the refuse container cabinet 1 of FIG. 1 in an exploded view. In this illustration, it can be seen that the bottom end plate 6 is fastened by means of two screws 7 to the door 4 of the refuse container cabinet 1. The screws engage through two openings 8 therethrough to be screwed into rivet nuts 9 which are inserted into the door 4. In this way, the bottom end plate 6 is fixed to a lower frame member 10 of the door 4. Due to the design of the two apertures 8 in the form of two elongated holes while a variability of the height of the bottom end plate 6 on a corresponding surface is possible.

Das Bodenabschlussblech 6 weist einen sich über die gesamte Breite der Tür 4 erstreckenden Befestigungsabschnitt 11 auf, in dem die Durchbrüche 8 ausgebildet sind. Vertikal unterhalb des Befestigungsbereiches 11 ist eine sich über die gesamte Breite des Bodenabschlussbleches 6 erstreckende Bürstenleiste 12 als Dichtungsanordnung bzw. Bürstenanordnung angeordnet. Die Bürstenleiste 12 ist über einen Verbindungsbereich 13 über die gesamte Breite mit den Befestigungsabschnitt 11 verbunden.The bottom end plate 6 has an over the entire width of the door 4 extending mounting portion 11, in which the openings 8 are formed. Vertically below the attachment area 11, a brush strip 12 extending over the entire width of the bottom end plate 6 is arranged as a seal arrangement or brush arrangement. The brush strip 12 is connected via a connecting region 13 over the entire width with the attachment portion 11.

Die Figur 2B zeigt eine seitliche Darstellung der in der Figur 2A gezeigten Tür 4. Im unteren Bereich der Tür 4 ist das Bodenabschlussblech 6 zu sehen, das mittels der Schrauben 7 mit der Tür 4 verbunden ist. Dieser untere Bereich der Tür 4 ist eingekreist und mit dem Buchstaben C gekennzeichnet.The FIG. 2B shows a side view of the in the FIG. 2A In the lower part of the door 4, the bottom end plate 6 can be seen, which is connected by means of screws 7 with the door 4. This lower area of the door 4 is circled and marked with the letter C.

Eine Detaildarstellung dieses Bereiches ist in der Figur 2C dargestellt. In dieser Detaildarstellung sind die bereits aus den Figuren 2A bekannten Abschnitte des Befestigungsbleches 6 gut zu erkennen. So ist das Befestigungsblech 6 über den Befestigungsabschnitt 11, der an einem oberen Bereich des Bodenabschlussbleches 6 ausgebildet ist, mit der Tür 4 verbunden. Der Befestigungsabschnitt 11 wird von dem Verbindungsbereich 13 stoffschlüssig umgriffen. Der Verbindungsbereich 13 geht direkt in die Bürstenleiste 12 über. Das heißt, der Befestigungsabschnitt 11, der Verbindungsbereich 13 und die Bürstenleiste 12 sind vertikal untereinander angeordnet. Wenn die Tür 4 bestimmungsgemäß am Müllcontainerschrank 1 montiert ist, berührt die Bürstenleiste 12 eine Bodenplatte des Müllcontainerschrankes 1. Dadurch wird eine Lücke, die bei Müllcontainerschränken vorhanden ist, welche nicht mit einem Bodenabschlussblech 6 ausgestattet sind, verschlossen. Auf diese Weise kann das Eindringen von Verunreinigungen oder Ungeziefer in das Innere des Müllcontainerschrankes 1 vermieden werden.A detail of this area is in the Figure 2C shown. In this detail are already from the FIGS. 2A well-known portions of the mounting plate 6 to recognize well. Thus, the attachment plate 6 is connected to the door 4 via the attachment portion 11 formed at an upper portion of the bottom end plate 6. The attachment portion 11 is encompassed by the connection region 13 cohesively. The connection area 13 goes directly into the brush bar 12. That is, the fixing portion 11, the connecting portion 13 and the brush bar 12 are vertically arranged with each other. When the door 4 is properly mounted on the refuse container cabinet 1, the brush bar 12 contacts a bottom plate of the refuse container cabinet 1. This closes a gap that is present in refuse container cabinets that are not equipped with a bottom end panel 6. In this way, the ingress of contaminants or vermin into the interior of the refuse container cabinet 1 can be avoided.

Die Figur 3 zeigt eine seitliche Ansicht des Bodenabschlussbleches 6 der Figuren 2A bis 2C in vergrößerter Darstellung. Hinsichtlich der einzelnen Elemente dieses Bodenabschlussbleches 6 wird auf die obigen Erläuterungen verwiesen.The FIG. 3 shows a side view of the bottom end plate 6 of FIGS. 2A to 2C in an enlarged view. With regard to the individual elements of this bottom end plate 6, reference is made to the above explanations.
