Description

Scheibeneinheit und Verfahren zur Herstellung und/oder Bereitstellung einer solchen Scheibeneinheit Disc unit and method for producing and / or providing such a disc unit
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Scheibeneinheit sowie ein Verfahren zur Herstellung und/oder Bereitstellung einer solchen Scheibeneinheit gemäß den Merkmalen der unabhängigen Ansprüche. The present invention relates to a disk unit and a method for producing and / or providing such a disk unit according to the features of the independent claims.
Im Stand der Technik sind Scheibeneinheiten bekannt, bei welchem einerseits die Rahmenkonstruktion ohne Kammern ausgeführt sind und oder bei welchem andererseits Kammern von Rahmenkonstruktionen für Gase, Flüssigkeiten und/oder Festkörper zum Beispiel für Wartungszwecke nur umständlich und teuer geöffnet, wieder verschlossen und gegebenenfalls abgedichtet werden können. Disc units are known in the prior art, in which, on the one hand, the frame structure is designed without chambers and or, on the other hand, chambers of frame structures for gases, liquids and / or solids, for example for maintenance purposes, can only be opened, closed again and, if necessary, cumbersome and expensive .
Bei Rahmenkonstruktionen für Scheibeneinheiten hat es sich als nachteilig erwiesen, dass sich vorhandene Kammern oder Teile davon nicht einfach und flexibel an den Ecken und/oder entlang der Kanten öffnen, wieder verschließen und gegebenenfalls abdichten lassen. In the case of frame constructions for pane units, it has proven to be disadvantageous that existing chambers or parts thereof cannot be easily and flexibly opened, closed again and optionally sealed at the corners and / or along the edges.
Dies kann insbesondere problematisch beim Einbringen von optischen Elementen wie zum Beispiel von Funktionselementen zur Beleuchtung auf bzw. in einer oder mehrerer Scheiben sein, da beispielsweise bei herkömmlichen Rahmenkonstruktionen der Übergang der Rahmenkonstruktion zur zumindest einen beleuchteten Scheibe nicht transparent ist und da die elektrische Versorgung und entsprechende Wärmeleitung nur unzureichend erfolgen kann. This can be particularly problematic when introducing optical elements such as, for example, functional elements for lighting on or in one or more panes, since, for example in conventional frame designs, the transition from the frame structure to the at least one illuminated pane is not transparent, and because the electrical supply and corresponding Heat conduction can be insufficient.
Eine bereits bekannte Scheibeneinheit ist bspw. durch die WO 2019/096872 A1 offenbart. Die in dieser Anmeldung beschriebene Scheibeneinheit ist aus mehreren transparenten Schichten gebildet, wobei zwischen zwei mittels eines Abstandselements voneinander in definiertem Abstand gehaltenen Glasplatten eine beleuchtbare Platte aus transparentem Material angeordnet ist. Das Abstandselement ist durch ein Hohlprofil mit mehreren Hohlkammern gebildet, wobei auf der mittleren Hohlkammer die beleuchtbare Platte mit ihrer längsseitigen Randkante aufliegt. Zudem ist in der mittleren Hohlkammer ein Funktionselement vorgesehen, das im aktivierten Zustand die Randkante der beleuchtbaren Platte anstrahlt. Ein Innenraum der mittleren Hohlkammer mitsamt dem darin befindlichen Beleuchtungselement ist gasdicht abgeschlossen. Bei dieser An already known disk unit is disclosed, for example, by WO 2019/096872 A1. The pane unit described in this application is formed from a plurality of transparent layers, an illuminable plate made of transparent material being arranged between two glass plates held at a defined distance from one another by means of a spacer element. The spacer element is formed by a hollow profile with a plurality of hollow chambers, the illuminable plate resting with its longitudinal edge on the central hollow chamber. In addition, a functional element is provided in the central hollow chamber, which illuminates the edge of the illuminable plate in the activated state. An interior of the middle hollow chamber together with the lighting element located therein is sealed gas-tight. At this
Scheibeneinheit hat es sich jedoch als nachteilig erwiesen, dass bei Wartung des Funktionselements das Verbindungselement entfernt werden muss, um Zugang zum Funktionselement zu erhalten. Durch das Entfernen des Verbindungselements zwischen den Profilen bzw. den Abstandshaltern geht die hermetische Abdichtung der Disk unit, however, has proven to be a disadvantage that when the Functional elements the connecting element must be removed in order to gain access to the functional element. By removing the connecting element between the profiles or the spacers, the hermetic seal of the
Scheibeneinheit verloren. Nach Austausch des Funktionselements muss somit die hermetische Abdichtung der Scheibeneinheit erneut hergestellt werden, was Disk unit lost. After replacing the functional element, the hermetic seal of the pane unit must be re-established, what
zeitaufwändig und kostenintensiv ist. is time consuming and costly.
Durch die US 2007/0177391 A1 ist eine weitere Scheibeneinheit offenbart, welche einen Abstandshalter sowie über den Abstandshalter beabstandet angeordnete Scheiben umfasst. In der mittleren Kammer des Abstandshalters ist ein Funktionselement eingesetzt. Die hermetische Abdichtung der Scheibeneinheit wird durch ein US 2007/0177391 A1 discloses a further disk unit which comprises a spacer and disks arranged at a distance from the spacer. A functional element is inserted in the middle chamber of the spacer. The hermetic seal of the disc unit is ensured by a
Dichtungsmittel erreicht. Um das Funktionselement auszutauschen, muss das Sealant reached. To replace the functional element, the
Dichtungsmittel entfernt werden, wodurch wiederrum die hermetische Abdichtung der Scheibeneinheit nicht mehr vorhanden ist. Im Umkehrschluss muss nach Austausch des Funktionselements auch bei dieser Scheibeneinheit die hermetische Abdichtung erneut hergestellt werden. Sealants are removed, which in turn means that the hermetic seal of the pane unit is no longer present. Conversely, after replacing the functional element, the hermetic seal must also be re-established on this pane unit.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Scheibeneinheit zur Verfügung zu stellen, mittels welcher die im Stand der Technik genannten Nachteile überwunden werden und mittels welcher die Scheibeneinheit, insbesondere dessen Rahmenkonstruktion, für Wartungszwecke einfach und flexibel an zumindest einer Ecke und/oder entlang zumindest einer der Kanten geöffnet, wieder verschlossen und gegebenenfalls abgedichtet werden können. Zudem soll ein Verfahren zur Verfügung gestellt werden, mit welchem die Scheibeneinheit kostengünstig und auf einfache Art und Weise hergestellt werden kann. The invention is therefore based on the object of providing a pane unit by means of which the disadvantages mentioned in the prior art are overcome and by means of which the pane unit, in particular its frame construction, is simple and flexible for maintenance purposes at least at one corner and / or at least along one of the edges can be opened, closed again and sealed if necessary. In addition, a method is to be made available with which the pane unit can be manufactured inexpensively and in a simple manner.
Diese Aufgaben der Erfindung werden durch eine Scheibeneinheit und durch ein Verfahren zur Herstellung und/oder Bereitstellung einer Scheibeneinheit gemäß den Merkmalen der unabhängigen Ansprüche gelöst. Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen werden durch die Unteransprüche beschrieben. These objects of the invention are achieved by a disk unit and by a method for producing and / or providing a disk unit according to the features of the independent claims. Further advantageous embodiments are described by the subclaims.

Wahlweise wären auch andere Materialien denkbar. The at least two outer disks and the at least one middle disk can be made transparent. For example, the disks can be made Be polymethyl methacrylate. Alternatively, other materials would also be conceivable.
Weiter umfasst die Scheibeneinheit wenigstens ein Funktionselement zur Beleuchtung der wenigstens einen Scheibe, welches in wenigstens eine im Profil bzw. in den Profilen vorgesehene Kammer eingesetzt ist. Die wenigstens eine im Profil bzw. in den Profilen vorgesehene Kammer kann somit eine Aufnahme für das wenigstens eine Funktionselement bereitstellen. Furthermore, the pane unit comprises at least one functional element for illuminating the at least one pane, which is inserted into at least one chamber provided in the profile or in the profiles. The at least one chamber provided in the profile or profiles can thus provide a receptacle for the at least one functional element.
Dabei ist vorgesehen, dass die mehreren Profile mittels zumindest eines It is provided that the multiple profiles by means of at least one
Verbindungselements miteinander gekoppelt sind, wobei das zumindest eine Connection element are coupled together, the at least one
Verbindungselement jeweils derart in die Profile eingreift, so dass die Scheibeneinheit hermetisch abgedichtet ist. Connection element engages in each case in the profiles such that the disk unit is hermetically sealed.
Bei der Scheibeneinheit ist vorgesehen, dass das zumindest eine It is provided in the disk unit that the at least one
Verbindungselement insbesondere an zumindest einer Stirnseite wenigstens eine Aussparung umfasst, welche mittels eines korrespondierenden Abdeckelements verschließbar und/oder öffenbar ist, wobei die wenigstens eine Aussparung des zumindest einen Verbindungselements fluchtend zur wenigstens einen Kammer bzw. Aufnahme für das wenigstens Funktionselement angeordnet ist, und wobei das wenigstens eine Funktionselement durch die Aussparung hindurchführbar und zur Beleuchtung der wenigstens einen mittleren Scheibe in die wenigstens eine Kammer einsetzbar ist. Connecting element, in particular on at least one end face, comprises at least one recess which can be closed and / or opened by means of a corresponding cover element, the at least one recess of the at least one connecting element being arranged in alignment with the at least one chamber or receptacle for the at least functional element, and wherein the at least one functional element can be passed through the recess and can be used to illuminate the at least one central pane in the at least one chamber.
Die wenigstens eine Aussparung des wenigstens einen Funktionselements kann vorzugsweise einen Querschnitt umfassen, welcher zumindest näherungsweise dem Querschnitt des Funktionselements entspricht oder welcher größer als dem Querschnitt des Funktionselements ausgebildet ist. The at least one recess of the at least one functional element can preferably comprise a cross section which at least approximately corresponds to the cross section of the functional element or which is larger than the cross section of the functional element.
Das wenigstens eine Funktionselement kann bspw. einen runden, quadratischen, oder rechteckförmigen Querschnitt umfassen. Dementsprechend kann die wenigstens eine Aussparung ebenfalls einen runden, quadratischen oder rechteckförmigen The at least one functional element can comprise, for example, a round, square or rectangular cross section. Accordingly, the at least one recess can also be round, square or rectangular
Querschnitt umfassen. Die hier genannten Querschnitte des wenigstens einen Include cross section. The cross-sections of at least one mentioned here
Funktionselements und/oder der wenigstens einen Aussparung sollen nicht Functional elements and / or the at least one recess should not
einschränkend zu verstehen sein. Selbstverständlich können das wenigstens eine Funktionselement und/oder die wenigstens eine Aussparung auch andere Querschnitte umfassen. Alternativ wäre es auch denkbar, dass das wenigstens eine Funktionselement und die wenigstens eine Aussparung unterschiedliche Querschnitte aufweisen. Bei dieser Ausführungsform ist es jedoch wichtig, dass der Querschnitt der wenigstens einen Aussparung so groß bzw. derart ausgebildet ist, dass das wenigstens eine to be understood restrictively. Of course, the at least one functional element and / or the at least one recess can also comprise other cross sections. Alternatively, it would also be conceivable for the at least one functional element and the at least one recess to have different cross sections. In this embodiment, however, it is important that the cross section of the at least one recess is so large or that the at least one
Funktionselement durch diese wenigstens eine Aussparung hindurchführbar ist. Functional element can be passed through this at least one recess.
Über das Abdeckelement kann jeweils das zumindest eine Verbindungselement an der zumindest einen Stirnseite bzw. an deren Seitenwänden so geöffnet werden und/oder öffenbar sein, dass eine Wartung eines der Profile oder Teilen oder der wenigstens einen Funktionseinheit davon einfach und kostengünstig möglich ist. Beispielsweise kann das wenigstens eine Funktionselement auf einfache Art und Weise ausgetauscht werden. Ein Öffnen der Aussparung bzw. ein Entfernen der Aussparung beeinträchtigt jedoch nicht die hermetische Abdichtung der Scheibeneinheit, da die hermetische Abdichtung der Scheibeneinheit durch das zumindest eine Verbindungselement bestehen bleibt. The at least one connecting element can be opened and / or opened on the at least one end face or on the side walls thereof via the cover element in such a way that maintenance of one of the profiles or parts or the at least one functional unit thereof is simple and inexpensive. For example, the at least one functional element can be exchanged in a simple manner. However, opening the cutout or removing the cutout does not impair the hermetic sealing of the pane unit, since the hermetic seal of the pane unit remains through the at least one connecting element.
Das Abdeckelement kann beispielsweise in Form einer Lasche, Deckel oder dergleichen ausgebildet sein. Insbesondere kann das Abdeckelement korrespondierend zum Querschnitt der wenigstens einen Aussparung ausgebildet sein. The cover element can be designed, for example, in the form of a tab, cover or the like. In particular, the cover element can be designed to correspond to the cross section of the at least one recess.
Alternativ kann das zumindest eine Verbindungselement an beiden Stirnseiten wenigstens eine Aussparung umfassen, welche jeweils mittels eines korrespondierenden Abdeckelements verschließbar und/oder öffenbar ist. In diesem Fall kann die Wartung der Scheibeneinheit und insbesondere der Profile sowie der wenigstens einen Alternatively, the at least one connecting element can comprise at least one recess on both end faces, which can be closed and / or opened by means of a corresponding cover element. In this case, the maintenance of the disc unit and in particular the profiles and the at least one
Funktionseinheit auf zwei Seiten erfolgen. Functional unit on two sides.
Nach dem Wartungsvorgang kann die wenigstens eine Aussparung mittels des korrespondierenden Abdeckelements wieder verschlossen und bei Bedarf entsprechend abgedichtet werden. After the maintenance process, the at least one recess can be closed again by means of the corresponding cover element and, if necessary, sealed accordingly.
Eine optionale Ausführungsvariante der Scheibeneinheit kann entstehen, wenn eines oder mehrere Profile ganz oder teilweise in Form von Abstandhaltern zwischen den Scheiben ausgeführt sind. An optional design variant of the pane unit can arise if one or more profiles are designed entirely or partially in the form of spacers between the panes.
Weiter kann das zumindest eine Verbindungselement jeweils ein Koppelelement umfassen, welches jeweils in die wenigstens eine Kammer der Profile eingreift, so dass das Verbindungselement jeweils bündig an der jeweiligen Stirnseite des jeweiligen Profils anliegt. Weiter kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Profile zumindest zwei weitere Kammern umfassen, zwischen welchen eine Aufnahme für die wenigstens eine mittlere Scheibe ausgebildet wird. Die zumindest zwei Kammern können entlang der Längsrichtung des jeweiligen Profils angeordnet sein und insbesondere parallel zueinander angeordnet sein. Insbesondere können die zumindest zwei Kammern jeweils auf einer Innenfläche des Profils angeordnet sein. Furthermore, the at least one connecting element can each comprise a coupling element, which respectively engages in the at least one chamber of the profiles, so that the connecting element lies flush against the respective end face of the respective profile. It can further be provided that the profiles comprise at least two further chambers, between which a receptacle for the at least one central disk is formed. The at least two chambers can be arranged along the longitudinal direction of the respective profile and in particular can be arranged parallel to one another. In particular, the at least two chambers can each be arranged on an inner surface of the profile.
Weiter kann vorgesehen sein, dass das zumindest eine Verbindungselement jeweils zumindest zwei weitere Koppelemente umfasst, welche in die wenigstens zwei weiteren Kammern eingreifen, so dass das zumindest eine Verbindungselement jeweils bündig an einer Stirnseite des jeweiligen Profils anliegt. Furthermore, it can be provided that the at least one connecting element each comprises at least two further coupling elements which engage in the at least two further chambers, so that the at least one connecting element lies flush against an end face of the respective profile.
Die zumindest zwei weiteren Koppelelemente können klammer-, wellen- oder federartig ausgebildet sein. Dadurch lassen sich die zumindest zwei weiteren The at least two further coupling elements can be designed like clamps, waves or springs. This allows the at least two more
Koppelelemente und die Profile besonders einfach und kostengünstig miteinander verbinden. Diese Verbindung kann sich während des Zusammenbaus der Connect coupling elements and the profiles to one another in a particularly simple and cost-effective manner. This connection can change during assembly of the
Rahmenkonstruktion für Scheibenelemente nicht mehr lösen. Alternativ wären auch andere Ausführungsformen der zumindest zwei weiteren Koppelemente denkbar, so dass zwischen Verbindungselement und Profil eine lösbare Verbindung ausgebildet wird. Do not loosen frame construction for pane elements anymore. Alternatively, other embodiments of the at least two further coupling elements would also be conceivable, so that a releasable connection is formed between the connecting element and the profile.
An dieser Stelle soll nochmal darauf hingewiesen werden, dass die Aussparung des zumindest einen Verbindungselements insbesondere fluchtend zur wenigstens einen Aufnahme für das wenigstens Funktionselement angeordnet ist; d.h. das wenigstens eine Funktionselement kann durch die Aufnahme des zumindest einen Verbindungselements hindurchgeführt bzw. hindurchführbar sein und zur Beleuchtung auf oder in der wenigstens einen Scheibe eingesetzt werden bzw. einsetzbar sein. At this point it should be pointed out again that the recess of the at least one connecting element is arranged in particular in alignment with the at least one receptacle for the at least functional element; i.e. the at least one functional element can be passed or can be passed through the receptacle of the at least one connecting element and can be used or can be used for illumination on or in the at least one pane.
Weiter kann jeweils eine Innenfläche der Profile, insbesondere eine Innenfläche zwischen den wenigstens zwei weiteren Kammern, zumindest teilweise transparent ausgebildet sein. Auf diese Weise kann die wenigstens eine mittlere Scheibe durch das wenigstens eine Funktionselement beleuchtet werden. Furthermore, an inner surface of the profiles, in particular an inner surface between the at least two further chambers, can be at least partially transparent. In this way, the at least one middle pane can be illuminated by the at least one functional element.
Die Wartung des wenigstens einen Funktionselements kann somit auf einfache Art und Weise erfolgen, da lediglich die wenigstens eine Aussparung des zumindest einen Verbindungselements geöffnet und damit das korrespondierende Abdeckelement entfernt werden muss. Auf diese Weise kann das wenigstens eine Funktionselement einfach und kostengünstig in die wenigstens eine Kammer eingeschoben beziehungsweise herausgezogen werden oder bei Bedarf ausgetauscht werden. Um die Stabilität der Rahmenkonstruktion in Verbindung mit der Scheibeneinheit zu optimieren, kann optional in einer Ausführungsvariante eine der wenigstens zwei äußeren Scheiben kleiner ausgebildet sein, um einen einfachen und kostengünstigen Zugang auf dieser Seite über die Aussparung im jeweiligen Profil zu ermöglichen, während andere Scheibe der wenigstens zwei Außenscheiben auf der anderen Seite in voller Größe ausgebildet ist, um die Stabilität möglichst zu erhalten. The maintenance of the at least one functional element can thus be carried out in a simple manner, since only the at least one cutout of the at least one connecting element has to be opened and the corresponding cover element thus has to be removed. In this way, the at least one functional element can be easily and inexpensively inserted or withdrawn into the at least one chamber or replaced if necessary. In order to optimize the stability of the frame construction in connection with the pane unit, one of the at least two outer panes can optionally be made smaller in an embodiment variant, in order to enable simple and inexpensive access on this side via the cutout in the respective profile, while other panes of the at least two outer panes on the other side are designed in full size in order to maintain stability as much as possible.
Bei dem wenigstens einen Funktionselement kann es sich insbesondere um eine Beleuchtungseinheit wie beispielsweise LED-Platine oder dergleichen handeln. The at least one functional element can in particular be a lighting unit such as an LED board or the like.

Furthermore, at least one opening can be provided in the cover element of the at least one pairing and / or in the at least one connecting element and / or in the respective profile, through which the power supply for the at least one functional element can be carried out.
Weiter kann vorgesehen sein, dass zumindest ein Profil an zumindest einer Außenseite zerklüftet aufgebaut ist, um deren Oberfläche für die optimale Ableitung von Wärme zu vergrößern. It can further be provided that at least one profile is jagged on at least one outer side in order to enlarge its surface for the optimal dissipation of heat.
Zusätzlich oder wahlweise kann zumindest eine Außenseite von zumindest einem Profil ganz oder teilweise mit schwarzer Oberfläche ausgeführt sein, um den Additionally or alternatively, at least one outside of at least one profile can be entirely or partially designed with a black surface around which
Wärmeübergangswiderstand zu minimieren und eine optimale Wärmeableitung zu ermöglichen. To minimize heat transfer resistance and to enable optimal heat dissipation.
Weiter kann das zumindest eine Verbindungselement ein Eckprofil ausbilden und/oder rechtwinkelig ausgebildet sein. Auch wäre es denkbar, dass die mehreren Profile mit nicht-rechtwinkeligen Verbindungselementen verbunden und damit mit einer beliebigen Anzahl an Verbindungselementen und Profilen ausgebildet werden können. Furthermore, the at least one connecting element can form a corner profile and / or be formed at right angles. It would also be conceivable that the multiple profiles can be connected with non-right-angled connecting elements and thus can be formed with any number of connecting elements and profiles.
In die zwischen den wenigstens zwei äußeren Scheiben und der wenigstens einen mittleren Scheiben ausgebildeten Hohlräume kann zumindest eine Füllstoff, insbesondere Gase, Flüssigkeiten und/oder Festkörper, wie zum Beispiel Trockenmittel, gefüllt werden. Alternativ können die Hohlräume auch vakuumisiert werden. At least one filler, in particular gases, liquids and / or solids, such as desiccants, can be filled into the cavities formed between the at least two outer disks and the at least one middle disk. Alternatively, the cavities can also be vacuumized.

Verbindungselements und damit eines Profils geöffnet wird. Dazu wird eine dichte Verbindung zwischen zumindest einem Verbindungselement und zumindest einem Profil durch Aufbringen zumindest eines Dichtelements auf das Verbindungselement hergestellt. Connection element and thus a profile is opened. This will be a tight Connection between at least one connecting element and at least one profile made by applying at least one sealing element to the connecting element.
Insbesondere kann das zumindest eine Verbindungselement zumindest eine Vertiefung umfassen, in welche zumindest ein Dichtelement einsetzbar ist, so dass jeweils zwischen dem Verbindungselement und dem Profil eine abdichtende und/oder dichtende Verbindung ausgebildet wird. In particular, the at least one connecting element can comprise at least one recess into which at least one sealing element can be inserted, so that a sealing and / or sealing connection is formed in each case between the connecting element and the profile.
Die zumindest eine Vertiefung kann durch eine Nut oder dergleichen gebildet sein. Vorzugsweise kann die zumindest eine Vertiefung auch andere Geometrien aufweisen, in welche jeweils zumindest ein Dichtmittel zur Ausbildung einer Abdichtung einsetzbar ist. The at least one depression can be formed by a groove or the like. The at least one depression can preferably also have other geometries, in each of which at least one sealing means can be used to form a seal.
Die zumindest eine Vertiefung kann auf der dem Profil zugewandten Seite des zumindest einen Verbindungselements zugeordnet sein. Bei dieser Ausführungsform kann eine Abdichtung der Scheibeneinheit, insbesondere des Profils, von innen erfolgen. Alternativ kann die zumindest eine Vertiefung auch auf der dem Profil abgewandten Seite des zumindest einen Verbindungselement zugeordnet sein; d.h. bei dieser The at least one depression can be assigned on the side of the at least one connecting element facing the profile. In this embodiment, the pane unit, in particular the profile, can be sealed from the inside. Alternatively, the at least one depression can also be assigned on the side of the at least one connecting element facing away from the profile; i.e. at this
Ausführungsform kann eine Abdichtung der Scheibeneinheit, insbesondere des Profils, von außen erfolgen. Embodiment, the pane unit, in particular the profile, can be sealed from the outside.
Selbstverständlich wären auch Kombinationen der zuvor genannten Combinations of the aforementioned would of course also be possible

Scheibeneinheit sowohl von außen als auch von innen abgedichtet werden kann bzw. abdichtbar ist. Bei einer solchen Ausführungsform kann das zumindest eine Disk unit can be sealed from the outside as well as from the inside or can be sealed. In such an embodiment, this can be at least one

Connecting element comprise at least two recesses, at least one recess being provided on a side facing the profile and at least one recess being provided on a side facing away from the profile.
Alternativ wäre es auch denkbar, wenigstens einem, der zumindest zwei Alternatively, it would also be conceivable for at least one of the at least two
Koppelelementen zumindest ein Dichtelement zuzuordnen. Vorzugsweise können den zumindest zwei Koppelelementen jeweils zumindest ein Dichtelement zugeordnet sein. Das zumindest eine Dichtelementen kann auf zumindest einem, insbesondere auf zumindest zwei Koppelelementen zumindest abschnittsweise aufgetragen sein.
