Definitions

  • the invention relates to an adjusting tool for adjusting parts, in particular provided with a toothing, of base feet for furniture such as kitchen cabinet furniture or the like in the design according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Base feet for furniture such as kitchen cabinet furniture have a height-adjustable adjustment part in order to adapt the furniture exactly to the local installation conditions of the furniture.
  • precise adjustment work must be carried out on site in order to precisely adjust and align the furniture to be set up using base feet or similar support parts.
  • an adjusting tool is provided with a head piece having a receptacle and with a handle connected to the head piece, which has a rotatable control element at the end, via which the gear wheel protruding into the receiving space can be rotated via a non-rotatable connection.
  • this gear meshes a toothing that is provided on the adjustment part, namely on an outer 360 ° collar, so that in the case of the base foot with the adjustment part arranged on it, this toothing is aligned essentially horizontally and therefore parallel to a mounting surface.
  • the adjustment tool of the type mentioned is characterized in that the electromotive drive is connected to a measuring and control device, the measuring and control device determining the angle of inclination of a piece of furniture or the like supported on the base feet to the horizontal or another Orientation determined, with the electric motor drive being controlled as a function of the determined angle of inclination via the measuring and control device.
  • the gear wheel of the head piece of the adjusting tool can be driven autonomously by the electric motor drive after it has been switched on and therefore used for an adjusting movement.
  • the user no longer has to perform any twisting movement on a control unit, but only needs to operate a switch for one direction of rotation in order to be able to carry out the desired adjustment in one or the other direction.
  • the electromotive drive is connected to the measuring and control device in such a way that the measuring and control device determines the angle of inclination of, for example, a piece of furniture to the horizontal, after which the measuring and control device controls the electromotive drive as a function of the inclination angle determined.
  • An adjustment and thus a height compensation can thus take place in an automatic manner via this measuring and control device.
  • the corresponding data and control commands can be transmitted over various transmission routes, e.g. B. via radio, USB, cable or the like ..
  • the adjustment and thus height leveling usually only requires a short time, with readjustment by an operator is not necessary because the exact height setting is done automatically.
  • the electromotive drive can advantageously be switched in such a way that it can rotate in opposite directions, that is, once in a clockwise direction and once in an anti-clockwise direction. It is particularly preferred if the toothing on the gear and also on the adjustment part is aligned exactly 90 ° differently from the known adjustment part, i.e. with a horizontal alignment of the adjustment tool in the vertical direction, with which the toothing of the gearwheel both in the case of the gearwheel of the head piece and the toothing on the adjustment part can be made much longer than in the known prior art, with the result that a decoupling of the adjustment tool and the adjustment part during an operating process is almost impossible. In addition, a larger gear coupling is to be implemented.
  • not only one gear is provided in the head piece, but two, which are in turn driven by a common gear, so that a significantly larger gear contact surface can be made available via both gears on the adjustment part.
  • the common toothed wheel can in turn be connected to a worm wheel via a further toothed wheel, which in turn is driven by the electric motor drive.
  • 1 is an adjustment tool which has a handle 2, a head piece 4 and a receiving space 5 in the head piece.
  • a receiving space 3 is provided within the head piece 4, in which an electric motor drive 6 is arranged. This is supplied with electrical energy by batteries (not shown) or an accumulator.
  • the adjustment part V ( Fig. 4 ) is aligned with a vertically aligned toothing Z - based on a horizontal reference plane.
  • This toothing Z can be of two gears 7 and 8, which are in the receptacle 5 ( Fig. 3 ) protrude, be driven. These two gears 7 and 8 are driven by a further gear 9.
  • This further gear 9 is drivingly coupled to a further gear 11 via a connection 10.
  • This further gear 11 is driven by a worm wheel 12, which in turn is driven by the electric motor drive.
  • a holder part 13 is provided in the receptacle 5, which in the exemplary embodiment shown is designed as a stationary roller.
  • a further holder part 14 is provided, which is also designed as a roller, but which is arranged to be pivotable and loaded by a spring 15, so that the roller 14 can initially give way to an adjustment part V with the aid of the spring 15 when the adjustment tool 1 is applied and is then pressed against the toothing Z with the aid of the spring 15 after placement.
  • the electromotive drive 6 can now be switched on in order to move the adjustment part V via the thread G ( Fig. 4 ) to be adjusted on a base (not shown). This is possible with a simple operating effort.
  • Fig. 5 shows the adjustment tool, which is basically constructed like the adjustment tool, as it is in the Figs. 1 to 4 is described.
  • a cabinet 20 is shown, which can be placed on the floor of a building via adjustable feet 21 and which can be adjusted with regard to the height level via the adjustment tool 1.
  • the control measuring device 22 is provided, which contains an electronic balance. This can be connected to the adjustment tool via various connecting plugs or via other transmission techniques. In the illustrated embodiment according to Fig. 5 should this be done via a radio link. A desired state can be set and also displayed via a keyboard.
  • the electronic measuring and control unit controls the electric drive of the adjustment tool over the radio link so that this drive stops when the exact height adjustment has been made and the cabinet is set to an exact horizontal alignment.
  • the embodiment according to Fig. 6 shows on the adjustment tool 1 once again a socket 23 for receiving a plug for a cable connection between the control and measuring unit 22 and the adjustment tool 1. Furthermore, a connection to a PCT can be provided.
