Definitions

  • the object of the application is based on a fixture, in particular, with a swiveling arm for a support system to mount a medical or salon-technical device.
  • tripod stands, ceiling mounts, and wall systems are well known to which medical devices, for example, supply stations or salon-technical devices, e.g., drying hoods or infrared radiation devices, are mounted.
  • a swiveling arm is used to swivel the device to a specific location.
  • this type of device comprises a holding part and a mounting part mounted on the holding part.
  • the holding part is connected to a stationary support, in particular, a tripod stand leg of a ceiling mount or a wall mount.
  • the mounting part is rotatably connected to the holding part, which holds the device. The device places a load on the mounting part and therefore the holding part.
  • the known fixture has the disadvantage in that the securing mechanism increases friction of the fixture if the holding part is rotated relative to the mounting part.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a solution for this disadvantage.
  • the screw is screwed into the holding part or the mounting part.
  • the screw head projects into a groove of a bushing of the other part, that is, of the mounting part or the holding part.
  • the screw head can move freely in the groove with a relative rotation between the holding part and the mounting part.
  • the groove is bordered by an upper surface against which the screw head impacts if the connection between the holding part and the mounting part fails.
  • the suggested fixture has the advantage that the securing mechanism does not disturb the movements of the fixture if there is a functional connection, because the screw head can move back and forth freely in the groove.
  • the holding part is not held by the screw head at the mounting part until there is a failure in the connection, when the holding part lowers with respect to the mounting part.
  • the fixture becomes difficult to move, because the screw head supports the device, and the device places a load on the screw head via the upper surface of the groove. The surface moves with a great amount of friction via the screw head. In this process, the thread of the screw is not stressed to any great extent.
  • the person using the fixture notices the connection failure/joint failure due to the fixture's lack of ease in movement and due to the visible gap, which is caused by the resulting travel movement between the holding part and the mounting part.
  • a bolt, a pin, a rivet, or other miscellaneous retaining elements will also fulfill the function of a screw with thread even if one of such retaining elements does not have a thread.
  • An end of the retaining element that projects outwards corresponds to the screw head.
  • An MLF screw is particularly suitable.
  • the screw can be mounted via a slot bordering the groove, whereby the screw can be screwed into an inner thread or a retaining element is partially inserted into a drilled hole.
  • the screw head has a wedge-shaped edge, then the screw head is wedged on the surface of the groove when the securing mechanism is used. It can then be concluded that a particularly great amount of difficulty in moving the fixture means there is damage to the fixture.
  • FIG. 1 in a vertical section, shows a vertically aligned holding part, upon which a mounting part having a horizontal arm is supported via a securing ring, and wherein a screw head of a screw, screwed into the holding part, can be moved in a groove cut into the mounting part when the arm is swiveled.
  • FIG. 2 in a vertical section, shows the object of FIG. 1 , however, with a failed securing ring, a piece on the holding part with the mounting part slipping downwards together with the arm, and with a screw head impacting the upper, horizontally aligned surface of the groove, with said head being part of a securing mechanism.
  • FIG. 3 in a vertical section, shows another mounting part on another holding part, wherein a screw is also provided for securing the mounting part on the holding part, however, the screw is screwed-in in the mounting part, and the screw head projects into a groove of the holding part.
  • a holding part 3 with a ceiling mount and a mounting part 4 are rotatably connected to the holding part 3 ( FIG. 1 ).
  • the device places a load on the mounting part 4 and thus the holding part 3 .
  • a securing mechanism 5 is used to secure the mounting part 4 on the holding part 3 .
  • the securing mechanism 5 has a screw 7 with a screw head 8 .
  • the screw 7 engages with the inner thread 13 of the holding part 3 and, in this manner, is screwed into the mounting part 4 .
  • the screw head 8 projects into a groove 9 of a bushing 14 of the mounting part 4 .
  • the screw head 8 can therefore move freely in the groove 9 when the mounting part 4 is rotated around the holding part 3 .
  • the groove 9 is bordered by a horizontally aligned surface 6 .
  • a slot 10 is used to insert the screw 7 .
  • a securing ring 11 in a holder 12 of the holding part 3 upon which the bushing 14 of the mounting part 4 and therefore the mounting part 4 together with the arm 2 are supported, is provided.
  • the securing ring 11 fails after the fixture 1 has been used for a long period of time, and it falls out ( FIG. 2 ), then the mounting part along with the arm 2 slips downwards a few millimeters along the holding part 3 . However, this does not result in the mounting part 4 coming loose from the holding part 3 , because the screw 7 , as a part of the securing mechanism 5 , prevents this. Thus, the surface 6 impacts the screw head 8 during this slippage downwards. Said screw head has a line-shaped, wedge-type tapered edge 15 , which digs into the surface 6 or places itself between the surface 6 and the holding part 3 . This results in difficulty of movement when the arm is rotated whereby the occurred damage is noticed.
  • the art is similar in the second embodiment example ( FIG. 3 ).
  • the holding part 3 and the mounting part 4 connect two arms 2 , which are linked together with a joint, with each arm swiveling in a horizontal plane.
  • the screw 7 is screwed into the mounting part 4 , and the screw head 8 can be moved in a groove 9 of the holding part 3 . Should the connection between the holding part 3 and the mounting part 4 become loose, the screw 7 secures the fixture 1 precisely as described in the first embodiment example.
