Due to the simple design of the tool, even inexperienced or non-specialist persons can use the tool easily, safely and properly. It is also advantageous that the tool can also be used for large format laying due to the stability of the tool.
  • the invention further relates to a method for the horizontal alignment of objects according to claim 14.
  • the object of the invention is therefore to provide a method of the type mentioned at the outset with which the disadvantages mentioned are avoided, with which objects, in particular wall cladding elements, can be aligned in a simple, stable and horizontal manner in a short time.
  • the 1 to 6 show at least parts of preferred embodiments of a tool 1 for the horizontal alignment of objects, in particular wall cladding elements and / or windows and / or furniture, comprising at least one support element 3 with a support device 5 designed for supporting the object and adjustment devices 4 for the horizontal alignment of the support device 5 in at least one first axis.
  • the tool 1 can be set up and leveled quickly and easily on the construction site. In this way, a structure that does not wobble can be achieved in a short time. Tool 1 is also versatile, robust and easy to clean. Since no pipe guides or the like are provided, the tool 1 also works with a certain amount of contamination. Due to the simple design of the tool 1, even inexperienced or non-specialist persons can use the tool 1 simply, safely and properly. It is also advantageous that, due to the stability of the tool 1, the tool 1 can also be used for large format laying.
  • the tool 1 is used for lifting and in particular for the horizontal alignment of objects.
  • the tool 1 also serves to hold objects, in particular if the object or objects are aligned horizontally by means of the tool 1, in particular to facilitate the assembly of the object or objects.
  • Typical wall cladding elements are, for example, tiles, tiles, slabs, facing bricks or stone slabs.
  • the tool 1 is used to support and horizontally align windows, particularly when installing them. There is often only a small space available for installing windows.
  • windows or balcony doors can be heavy. Since the tool 1 is very stable and compact due to its construction, heavy windows or balcony doors can be easily supported and aligned horizontally by means of the tool 1. Furthermore, furniture or devices can also be supported and aligned horizontally using the tool 1.
  • the tool 1 preferably functions purely mechanically.
  • the tool 1 therefore does not require electricity or additional hydraulic or pneumatic devices which are cumbersome and difficult to operate.

  • the carrier plate 2 and the support element 3 can be aligned horizontally in at least two axes.
  • the axes are normal to each other in the plane of the carrier plate 2.
  • Tool 1 is also versatile, robust and easy to clean. Since no pipe guides or the like are provided, the tool 1 also works with a certain amount of contamination. Due to the simple design of the tool 1, even inexperienced or non-specialist persons can use the tool 1 simply, safely and properly. It is also advantageous that, due to the stability of the tool 1, the tool 1 can also be used for large format laying.
  • the support element 3 is designed as an elongated extension and that a longitudinal extension of the support element 3 runs parallel to an edge 6 of the carrier plate 2 adjoining the support element 3. In other words, the support element 3 protrudes beyond the edge 6 of the carrier plate 2, which enables a flat support of an object on the support device 5 of the support element 3.
  • the at least one support element 3 is attached to an underside of the carrier plate 2. This has a positive effect on the stability of the tool 1 and allows the support device 5 to be arranged low.

  • the at least one support element 3 on the Carrier plate 2 is formed.
  • the carrier plate 2 is essentially rectangular, which is exemplified in FIG Fig. 1 is shown.
  • the adjusting devices 4 are designed as height-adjustable feet 11 of the carrier plate 2.
  • the feet 11 form the footprint 9 on the underside thereof. This enables a particularly simple construction of the tool 1.
  • the height-adjustable feet 11 make it easy to compensate for uneven floors or uneven floors, which is a decisive factor for the horizontal alignment of the tool 1, in particular for the horizontal alignment of the support element 3.
  • At least three adjusting devices 4, preferably four adjusting devices 4, are arranged in corner regions of the carrier plate 2.
  • at least three adjusting devices 4 are attached to the carrier plate 2 in a triangular arrangement.
  • the carrier plate 2 can be triangular.

  • more than three adjustment devices 4 are attached to the carrier plate 2, at least 3 adjustment devices 4 being arranged in a triangular shape.
  • an adjusting device 4 is not arranged in each corner area. Due to the large distance between the individual setting devices 4, the tool 1 can be set or aligned precisely.
  • one or more adjustment devices 4 are arranged in the middle or in a central region of the carrier plate 2.
  • the carrier plate 2 has more setting devices 4 than corners.
  • five setting devices 4 can be arranged on a square carrier plate 2 or, for example, six setting devices 4 on a pentagonal carrier plate 2.

  • the ratio of the base area of the carrier plate 2 to the support element 3 is at least four to one, in particular at least six to one, preferably at least eight to one. This ensures that the tool 1 has a short lever due to the ratio of the size of the carrier plate 2 to the support element 3, which affects the stability of the tool 1 when supporting at least one object, in particular wall covering element, on the support device 5 of the support element 3.
  • the mass of the carrier plate 2 is at least 80%, in particular at least 85%, preferably at least 90%, of the total weight of the tool 1. Due to the relatively high mass of the support plate 2, the tool 1 gains decisive stability and it is possible, for example, to glue large format tiles or other heavy wall cladding elements to a wall and to position the lower edge on the support element 3, without the tool 1 being affected by this load tilts or slips.
  • the thickness of the carrier plate 2 is at least three times, in particular at least five times, preferably at least ten times, the thickness of the support element 3.

  • the support element 3 is detachably attached to the support plate 2, in particular screwed on.
  • the support plate 2 and the support element 3 can have bores, in particular threaded bores, which are arranged in alignment when the support element 3 is fastened to the support plate 2 and through which bores screws are carried out or screwed in and optionally screwed with a lock nut. Due to the releasable attachment of the support element 3 to the carrier plate 2, the support element 3 can be easily exchanged or cleaned. For heavy wall cladding elements, for example, a more solid support element 3 can be attached to the carrier plate 2.
  • the support element 3 is designed as a plate which, viewed in supervision, protrudes over the base surface of the carrier plate 2 at both ends 6 of the carrier plate 2 arranged on the end face.
  • the support element 3 preferably has a greater length than the carrier plate 2 and projects in particular on both edges 6 of the end faces of the carrier plate 2 beyond the surface of the carrier plate 2.
  • the carrier plate 2 has bores, in particular threaded bores, in which the adjusting devices 4 are arranged.
  • the setting devices 4 are designed as screws with corresponding lock nuts or merely as screws that are screwed into the threaded bores. As a result, the height of the tool 1 can be adjusted simply and precisely.
  • the Guide the adjustment devices 4 past the support element 3, which is exemplified in Fig. 6 is shown. It can be provided here that the support element 3 is attached centrally to the support plate 2 and that the adjusting devices 4 are each attached next to the support element 3.
