Description

magnetic fixing

The present invention relates to a magnetic attachment for fixing and

Supporting objects on support walls, in particular on glass walls and shower walls in the living or bathing area, without damaging their surface through holes or to use adhesives. The mediation of the adhesive force of the attachment is done exclusively by magnetic forces of attraction.

In the home, and especially in the bathroom, it is often desirable to apply commonly used cosmetic or sanitary products such as shampoo bottles, soap containers, toothpaste tubes or deodorant spray cans to locations that are within the reach of the user and therefore easily accessible.

Especially in shower cubicles with their glass walls and doors about the shampoo bottle should be easily accessible and just as easy to put back in place after use.

Since especially in bathrooms the cleanliness and hygiene plays a prominent role, it is equally desirable to any Abstell- and

Storage facilities for bathroom utensils and toiletries that the

Moisture is exposed, easy to maintain and user-friendly.

To improve these storage options were therefore

made numerous suggestions.

For example, plastic containers or mesh bags which can be attached to the shower screen are known which receive the bath utensils usually in a disordered manner and store them suspended in this state. However, this unordered storage does not allow quick access to the required product that tipping over and spilling of bottles is easily possible, which also hinders their cleaning and use.

Furthermore, from the German utility model DE 20012599 U1

Magnetic holder for utensils in the bathroom and for receiving Bath utensils known, which consists of a magnetic holder and an associated recording clip.

The universally designed recording clip should in particular be able to hold a hair dryer and position it flexibly.

To attach the magnetic holder is an iron metal plate, which is fixed by means of adhesive, for example, on a flow wall, which avoids boreholes.

The disadvantage of this solution is ultimately the use of a bonded iron metal plate, which is difficult to solve and can be arranged at another desired location in the bathroom. Also, the recording clip described is obviously not so flexible that it can easily accommodate geometrically different objects. For glass doors or shower cubicles this seems

Invention unsuitable. From DE 2961 1 171 U1 a further magnet holder is known, which is suitable for receiving magnets on non-magnetic surfaces.

Here it is proposed a steel sheet blank with a double-sided

Adhesive tape to attach to non-magnetic objects or utensils, which can then adhere to obvious magnetic surfaces. Where these items can be attached is not described or offered a solution for glass doors.

Many of the previously known solutions are only conditionally suitable to provide a holding and fastening device for bathroom utensils, which solves the problems described for a safe, clean and for quick and easy access of the user.

This should be a slight attachment and location change of

Fastening device of particular importance. The object of the present invention is therefore in particular to solve the aforementioned problems and to provide a holding and fastening device which allows a flexible change of location on carrier walls, Without leaving traces, as well as on glass and shower walls easily attachable and removable.

A further object is to develop the invention in such a way that

It is also useful for fixed, stationary applications.

This object is achieved in connection with the preamble by the characterizing features of the first, the seventh and the eleventh claim.

In the respective subclaims advantageous embodiments and

Developments of the invention indicated.

According to the invention, a magnetic attachment for fixing and holding objects on support walls, such as glass panes of shower walls or doors in shower cubicles, in particular in the bath area specified in the more

Magnetic holder and a magnetic carrier strip are combined to form a magnetic carrier, which is arranged on one side of the support wall and with the, arranged on the opposite side of the dividing wall Magnetethaftaufnahme is in magnetic bond.

The magnet holder of the magnetic carrier are designed in the form of magnetic disks and fixing magnets.

According to the invention, these are introduced into recesses, in the form of receiving bars of the magnet carrier strip and held by magnetic force or positive locking.

The magnetically stronger and larger fixing magnets are preferably arranged at the ends of the magnetic carrier strip, but it can also be another

Assignment can be selected.

The arranged in the receiving plates magnetic disks are inventively arranged on the elongated magnetic carrier strip between the fixing magnets and are used in conjunction with the opposite of the support wall at the same location arranged magnetic holding the attachment of

Objects, in particular of bath utensils on the magnetic carrier. In a particular embodiment of the invention, the magnetic carrier can also be attached to surfaces of mirrors or flow, preferably glued, which allows the direct attachment of the magnetic susceptor. The magnetic susceptor, which can also be used independently of the magnetic carrier, serves for the attachment of objects to magnetic or ferromagnetic surfaces and, according to the invention, comprises one, preferably embossed, one

A receiving cup in the form of a cup for receiving a suitably designed magnetic disk and a contact mold for producing an adhesive bond with the surface of a non-magnetic article to the

Magnetic holder is to attach.

The contact form is preferably designed as an adhesive tape or plaster, which may be of any desired shape, but is preferably in the form of a gecko foot. The magnet inserted into this magnetic plaster is interchangeable and reusable.

The invention will now be explained in more detail with reference to several embodiments and Figures 1 to 8.

This first embodiment describes a magnetic fixation system, which is designed according to the invention as a magnetic attachment and in FIG. 1

is shown and is primarily suitable for the fixation of containers or objects 9 on support walls and glass panes, but also on mirror surfaces or wall tiles and other smooth surfaces.

In this case, the magnetic carrier strip 2 forms the basic element of the magnetic attachment and has a plurality of receiving bolts 8 in various sizes for receiving fixing magnets 3 and magnetic disks 5. The magnetic carrier strip 2 consists of a ferromagnetic metal, preferably magnetic stainless steel, whose shaping is preferably carried out by means of laser cutting,

Any color design or coating of the magnetic carrier for design or protection purposes is possible.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 3, the strip shape of the magnet carrier strip 2 has a plurality of embossed cup-like depressions, which are in the form of receiving tabs 8

Pick up individual magnets 3, 5. The individual magnets 3, 5 are through

magnetic adhesive force with the surrounding crucible 8 firmly connected.

However, the fixing magnets shown here in a round shape 3 and

Magnetic disks 5 are preferably introduced with a certain dimensional tolerance to achieve a displacement latitude in the receiving crucible 8.

In addition to the illustrated round shape, any other suitable shape, such as a cube or rectangular shape of the individual magnets is conceivable.

The fixing magnets 3 are larger and designed to be stronger in magnetic force than the magnetic disks 5 and essentially serve for the magnetic attachment of the magnetic carrier 7 to the support wall 4, which in the present case is designed as a glass pane 4. The magnet carrier 7 comprises the magnet carrier strip 2, as well as the inserted magnets 3 and 5. The wall adhesion of the magnet carrier 7 to the glass pane 4 is by appropriately sized counter magnets

(Fixiermagnete) 3 produced, which on the opposite side of

Glass wall 4 positioned and by strong magnetic adhesive force through the

Glass pane 4 are connected to the fixing magnets 3. The dimensions and shape of the counter magnets 3 may vary, in addition to an identical round shape of the fixing magnets 3, other suitable and decorative magnetic shapes are conceivable. The magnetic carrier 7 according to the invention can be achieved by only two

Secure fixing magnets (counter magnets) 3 securely on each side of the glass wall or even a shower screen 4. To ensure the necessary adhesive force between the fixing and counter magnets through the glass 4, the glass thickness should not exceed 10 mm.

These at least 4 holding magnets 3 are preferably arranged at the two ends of the magnetic carrier strip 2. By appropriate arrangement of

Receiving crucible 8 but also any other positions can be selected. Furthermore, the length of the magnetic carrier 7 and thus the number of magnetic disks 5 available for stapling can also vary, as a result of which more or less so-called magnetic docking points for articles 9 are available.

The fixing or attachment of the objects 9 takes place between the opposite magnetic disks 5 of the magnetic carrier 7 and the

Magnetic disk 5 of the magnetic holding 6.

The objects 9 can be, in particular, shower gel, shampoo, toothpaste, toothbrushes, razors or even rinses.

The attachment of the magnetic holding receptacle 6 to a shampoo bottle 9 is shown in FIG. 4. In this case, the magnetic pad 1 1 is attached with its adhesive or adhesive layer 12 on the surface of the shampoo bottle 9. The receiving crucible 13 includes a magnetic disk 5, preferably a strong neodymium magnet for magnetic adhesion to the magnetic disks 5 of the magnetic carrier 7 Also on the larger fixing and counter magnets 3 of the magnetic carrier 7 can be magnetically mounted with magnetic disks 5 provided objects 9. Other mounting options provide the arrangement one or more hooks 10, such as for other bathroom utensils, washcloths or small towels. These hooks 10 can additionally be hooked into the intermediate spaces between the magnetic disks 5 of the magnetic carrier 7 (FIGS. 1 and 2).

The present invention is preferably suitable for articles 9 weighing no more than 500 g. However, by appropriate interpretation of the

Magnets also larger weights conceivable. Due to the possibility of alternatively mounting the magnet carrier 7 on the inside or the outside of a shower partition or shower door, corresponding possibilities for variation in the attachment of objects 9 also open up.

With appropriate clearances on both sides of the support wall 4,

According to the invention, a symmetrical arrangement of the magnetic carrier 7 mutually on the inner wall or on the outer wall possible.

Also, two magnetic carrier 7, which are opposite on both sides of the

Carrier wall 4 are arranged, generate the necessary magnetic force and the necessary support for the realization of the invention.

Here then on both sides of the magnet carrier 7 objects 9 are magnetically fixed.

According to the invention, various objects 9, such as shampoo bottles, soap dispensers or spray cans, can easily be fastened or attached to the magnetic carrier 7 if they have previously been provided with a magnetic holding receptacle 6.

According to the invention, the magnetic holding device 6 is designed as a magnetic pad or magnetic plaster 11 (FIG. 4), which is attached to the objects to be fastened by means of a contact mold 12, which is preferably designed as an adhesive layer 12 attach is. In the figures 6 to 8 2 different embodiments of magnetic pad and magnetic plaster 1 1 are exemplified.

In this case, there is shown in Fig. 6 in three views magnetic pad 1 1 in

Essentially from an adhesive tape 12 (double-sided) for attachment to a shampoo bottle 9, a receiving crucible 13, for receiving a magnetic disk 5 for the adhesive bond with the magnetic carrier 7 by the non-magnetic

Glass wall 4.

In a further preferred embodiment, the magnet receptacles 1 1 (FIGS. 7 and 8) or magnetic pad 1 1 (FIG. 6) according to claims 7 to 10 can also be used for fixing them

equipped articles can be used on any suitable magnetic surface, without the need of a magnetic carrier 7 according to the invention. In this case, the contact forms 12 and the associated receiving bolts 13, as well as the magnets 5 assume different, coordinated shapes and dimensions. Thus, in addition to round and square or rectangular shapes are conceivable. The arrangement of additional intermediate layers 14 and

Spacers between the receiving crucible 13 and the contact mold 12 (plaster, adhesive layer) are the subject of the invention (FIG. 7).

The magnetic pads 1 1 are formed in a further embodiment preferably as a patch-like adhesive elements, which are provided with a suitable magnet and are glued to the articles 9. These adhesive elements or patches are advantageously designed as disposable items, from which the magnet 5 can be replaced and reused as often as desired.

The formed as adhesive or adhesive layer contact forms 12 are provided with a protective film, which must be removed before use.

In a particularly preferred embodiment of the invention is the

Magnetic pickup 6 with the contact form 12 (adhesive layer 12) and the

Intermediate layers 14 pentagonal, in particular in the form of a Geckofußes, as shown in Fig. 7 and Fig. 8, formed. The encapsulated magnetic disk 5 and the receiving crucible 8 are also geometrically complementary adapted to the gecko shape.

The enlarged, and divided into a plurality of adhesion points and structured adhesive surface for adhering to the shampoo bottle 9, also improves its connection to the magnetic disk fifth

With the finger-shaped structure of several adhesion points of the gecko-shape, this magnetic susceptor 6 can also better apply for differently shaped objects 9 and allows a particularly good hold of this flexible Mag netpfl asters 1. 1

In this embodiment, the large adhesive surface of the gecko shape is advantageously combined with the freely movable in the cup-shaped space of the receiving plate 13 of the magnetic plaster 1 1 1 movable magnet.

In a further preferred embodiment of the invention is the

Magnet carrier strip 2 not linear, but designed in the form of a flat sinusoid, as shown in Fig. 5. But there are also other curved or angular shapes of the magnetic carrier strip 2, and thus also the

Magnetic carrier 7 in the context of the invention. Due to the flexibility of

Design forms is in particular a better adaptation to differently shaped support walls, in particular glass or shower walls possible, with design aspects can play a role. The wave-shaped magnet carrier 7 illustrated in FIG. 5 is likewise held by two fixing magnets 3 arranged at the ends of the magnet carrier 7 and their fixing magnets (counter magnets) 3 mounted opposite the glass pane 4 on the other side. In this embodiment (FIG. 5), seven magnetic disks 5 are in FIG

Magnet carrier 7 arranged and thus provide 7 mounting slots for

Shampoo bottles 9 available, added to the fixing magnets. 3

In this case, the magnetic carrier 7 can be arranged on each side of the support wall 4 and provide mounting locations available. The magnetic connection of the four occupied mounting positions in Fig. 5 is made on the other side of the glass 4 each by a magnetic plaster 1 1 in gecko shape. In the context of the invention, it is also conceivable to manufacture the magnetic carrier strip 2 instead of a ferromagnetic material, of plastic or another suitable material which is capable of holding the magnets 3, 5

Accordingly, take up and encapsulate so that their magnetic power is suitable for this application.

It is clear to the person skilled in the art that different shapes and colors of the design are also possible here.

In a further preferred embodiment, the magnetic carrier 7 is not only in the plane of the support wall 4 (X-Y direction) arbitrarily malleable, but also at any angle to this support wall plane (X-Z direction) formable and usable.

This makes it possible, for example, the magnetic attachment

To install shower cubicle walls that form an angle.

This applies equally to linear, as well as curved magnet carrier 7. The flexible magnetic attachment of the magnetic discs 5 in the receiving plates 8 allows easy bending to the support wall level without the

Affect magnetic force.

In a further preferred embodiment of the invention, the magnetic carrier 7 is arranged on a flow wall or a mirror surface, which allows the direct attachment of the magnetic holding devices 9 provided on the holding magnets 5, 3. The magnetic carrier 7 can be attached by suitable adhesives or adhesives, or other suitable mounting options on the surfaces of flow or mirrors.

This embodiment of the invention is of interest to users using the

Magnetic mounting not on glass walls, but for mirror surfaces or to use flow.

In a further embodiment of the invention, the magnetic carrier 7 with the, preferably Neodymagnetscheiben 5 fixed in desired wall areas built-in. This fixed installation, for example, in a tiled wall of a bath, according to the invention allows the attachment of, provided with a magnetic receptacle 6 objects 9 on the wall surface by magnetic adhesion to the invisible a tiled magnetic carrier. 7

In this variant, the magnetic attachment described herein can be adapted, for example, to needs in the kitchen area. Here, various items 9 can then be easily and cleanly mounted under the kitchen cabinet.

The magnetic attachment according to the invention has in particular numerous advantages over the previously known solutions.

Thus, for the preferred field of application of the invention to glass and shower walls, which are not necessary for other known mounting options in the bathroom area necessary drilling and gluing.

Furthermore, the magnetic attachment described allows a clean and

easy-care installation of frequently used in the bathroom objects directly on a glass against the magnetic carrier and / or on the magnet of the magnet carrier itself, such as on the outside of the glass.

The magnet carrier can be positioned very flexibly with its counter magnets without leaving noticeable marks on a glass pane.

With a desired fixed arrangement of the magnetic carrier on the surface of a mirror or a tiled surface or the fixed installation in or behind the surface of a wall, the objects to be fastened can be easily and cleanly arranged in fixed locations.

By attaching the magnetic pads or magnetic plaster in the right place of a shampoo bottle, this always hangs down with the removal opening. Even the smallest remains can be removed quickly and easily. No shaking and waiting is more necessary until the leftovers have run towards the opening. The objects can ideally be positioned in the grasp area of the user, which makes their handling particularly comfortable and, above all, makes it possible for older people and children, or even the disabled, to make a significant simplification in their use.

In the present magnetic attachment falling and leaking half full of shampoo bottles, especially on uneven gratings, since the shampoo remains after removal in the upper part of the bottle, the floor space, however, is a thing of the past.

The clean magnetic attachment of both the magnetic carrier, as well as the attached items and utensils to the magnet, a simple and hygienic cleaning of the interior of the shower is possible

The magnetic "plugging" of the used objects is particularly simple, since the associated magnetic disks almost find themselves in the vicinity and connect.
