Definitions

  • the invention relates to a assembly fitting with a bayonet coupling according to the preamble of claim 1 , as well as its particular use in the area of attachment of furniture parts according to claim 7 .
  • the insertion part has four radial tongues and the sleeve part has a hollow chamber and an opening, which corresponds in its shape to the four radial tongues of the insertion part and which makes possible guiding the tongues of the insertion part into the hollow chamber.
  • the bayonet coupling between the insertion part and the sleeve part is operative.
  • the stability in the coupled state essentially comes from the action of a positive connection between the table top mounting and the leg mounting part. Since guiding the insertion part into the sleeve part must take place smoothly, with this solution only a minimal centering accuracy can be achieved.
  • the present invention attempts to achieve an improvement.
  • the goal of the invention is to provide an assembly fitting with a bayonet coupling, which makes possible a precise centering of the two fitting parts to be coupled.
  • each radial tongue has at least one lug.
  • the outer radial distance of the lug from a center of the sleeve part lies essentially on a circle and the form of the inner sleeve opening corresponds essentially at least in part to this circle.
  • the lugs rest on the essentially circular form of the inner sleeve opening and center and hold the insertion part.
  • the advantages of this arrangement are that the centering accuracy is substantially improved. Nevertheless, with this manner of construction, the insertion part can be inserted very easily into the hollow chamber of the sleeve part, because for the tongue openings on the first fitting part, very ample clearance tolerances can be used. By subsequent twisting of the insertion part relative to the sleeve part, the tongues of the insertion part come into engagement with the sleeve part and by this twisting movement, the insertion part also is increasingly centered in the above-described manner.
  • the sleeve part as well as the insertion part can be made generally very flat, as one-piece, and therewith, also cost-effectively.
  • the radial tongues can be provided on their outer edges with a radial grooving and the sleeve part, with a resilient locking device.
  • a release lever can be mounted with a locking tappet, whereby the locking tappet engages in the coupled position of the assembly fitting into the radial grooving of the tongues and secures against twisting.
  • fitting part By means of an essentially triangular shaping of the fitting part with the integrated sleeve part, good assembly possibilities can be achieved with relatively minimal weight. Both fitting parts can be attached by screw connections to the respective components, for example, whereby, in addition and according to need, protection against twisting can be provided still.
  • FIG. 1 shows a sleeve part formed in a first fitting part
  • FIG. 2 shows an insertion part formed in a second fitting part.
  • FIG. 1 shows a first fitting part 1 with a sleeve part 2 formed thereon.
  • the first fitting part 1 comprises essentially a one-piece, essentially flat and generally triangular base plate 3 in the shown example.
  • the base plate 3 has an essentially circular sleeve opening 4 and three outward, radially formed tongue openings 5 .
  • the base plate 3 is heightened in a bent-out manner, which as a result creates a kind of hollow chamber 6 .
  • the first fitting part 1 has attachment holes 7 as well as holes 8 for mounting of a locking device (not shown).
  • FIG. 2 shows a second fitting part 10 with an insertion part 11 formed thereon.
  • the second fitting part 10 is essentially flat and round and has three radially, outwardly extending tongues 12 .
  • the tongue openings 5 of the first fitting part 1 are designed with a large clearance tolerance, such that the second fitting part with the tongues 12 can be inserted very easily into the hollow chamber 6 of the sleeve part 2 .
  • Each radial tongue 12 has on its top side (that side, which faces away from the sleeve part upon the insertion of the insertion part 11 into the sleeve part 2 ) two lugs 13 , whose outer radial distances from a center 14 of the insertion part essentially lie on a circle.
  • the tongues 12 preferably are provided with radial groovings 15 , which are formed for receiving locking cams (not shown) of a preferably resilient locking device (likewise not shown).
  • Locking devices with which assembly fittings can be secured against unintended release in a simple manner, are known pertinently, and therefore, are not further explained. This also is the case for lever devices, with which these types of locking devices can be released again in a simple manner.
  • the insertion part 11 of the second fitting part 10 first is inserted into the opening formed by the inner sleeve opening 4 and the tongue openings 5 . This is very easy because of the large clearance tolerances of the tongue openings 5 .
  • the second fitting part 10 is twisted relative to the first fitting part 1 . In this manner, the tongues 12 of the second fitting part 10 are shifted into the hollow chamber 6 of that part of the base plate 3 , which lies in the area of the inner sleeve opening 4 .
  • the outer radial distance of the (at least one) lug 13 per tongue 12 from a center of the insertion part 14 lies essentially on a circle and the shaping of the inner sleeve opening 4 corresponds at least in part essentially to this circle.
  • the lugs 13 rest on the essentially circular shaping of the inner sleeve opening 4 and the lugs thereby center and hold the insertion part 11 .
  • the shaping of the inner sleeve opening 4 can correspond at least in part essentially also to a generally spiral-shaped or spiral-related curve characteristic, which converges on the circle. In this manner, the transition with the attachment of the insertion part 11 on the sleeve part 2 is further facilitated.
