Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vitrine mit einem im wesentlichen ebenen Tragrahmen und zumindest einer mit einer Glasscheibe versehenen Tür, die an dem Tragrahmen schwenkbar angebracht ist und wahlweise in eine am Tragrahmen anliegende geschlossene Stellung und eine vom Tragrahmen abstehende offenen Stellung bringbar ist.The invention relates to a display case with a substantially flat support frame and at least one door provided with a glass pane which is pivotally attached to the support frame and can optionally be brought into a closed position adjacent to the support frame and an open position projecting from the support frame.

Derartige Vitrinen werden häufig zu Werbezwecken auf öffentlichen Plätzen und an Haltestellen von Bussen, Straßenbahnen etc. aufgestellt und dienen üblicherweise der Aufnahme und Präsentation von Gegenständen oder Plakaten.Such showcases are often set up for advertising purposes in public places and at the stops of buses, trams, etc. and are usually used to hold and present objects or posters.

Bekannte Vitrine weisen einen ebenen, vertikalen, vorzugsweise rechteckigen Tragrahmen auf, der aus stabförmigen Hohlprofilen besteht, die miteinander verschweißt oder in sonstiger Weise, beispielsweise mit Hilfe von winkelförmigen Eckverbindern verbunden sind. Der Tragrahmen kann über Stützen im Erdboden verankert oder an einer Wand befestigt sein. An dem Tragrahmen ist zumindest eine Tür über Scharniere schwenkbar angebracht, die mit einer Glasscheibe versehen ist und in ihrer geschlossen an dem Tragrahmen anliegenden Stellung mit diesem verriegelbar ist. Zu diesem Zweck ist zwischen der Tür und dem Tragrahmen eine Verriegelungsvorrichtung und am Tragrahmen ein Schließblech vorgesehen. Darüber hinaus ist es bekannt, zwischen der Tür und dem Tragrahmen eine Dämpfungsvorrichtung in Form einer Gasfederkonsole anzuordnen, um ein Anprallen der Tür an den Tragrahmen zu verhindern, wodurch die Glasscheibe zerbrechen könnte.Known showcases have a flat, vertical, preferably rectangular support frame, which consists of rod-shaped hollow profiles that are welded together or are connected in any other way, for example with the aid of angular corner connectors. The support frame can be anchored to the ground via supports or attached to a wall. At least one door is pivotally attached to the support frame via hinges, which is provided with a glass pane and can be locked with the support frame in its closed position. For this purpose, a locking device and a striking plate is provided between the door and the support frame. In addition, it is known to arrange a damping device in the form of a gas spring bracket between the door and the support frame in order to prevent the door from colliding with the support frame, as a result of which the glass pane could break.

Aufgrund der Anordnung der Eckverbinder, der Scharniere, der Verriegelungsvorrichtungen, der Gasfederkonsolen und der Schließbleche, die im folgenden zusammenfassend als konstruktive Funktionselemente bezeichnet werden, ist das Aufstellen der Vitrinen relativ zeitaufwendig und somit kostenintensiv. Eine vollständige Vorfertigung der Vitrinen ist aufgrund der unterschiedlichen Einsatzorte und der dort vorgegebenen jeweiligen Bedingungen in wirtschaftlich sinnvoller Weise nicht zu erreichen.Due to the arrangement of the corner connectors, the hinges, the locking devices, the gas spring brackets and the striking plates, which are hereinafter referred to collectively as constructive functional elements, the installation of the showcases is relatively time-consuming and therefore cost-intensive. A complete prefabrication of the showcases is not economically feasible due to the different locations and the respective conditions specified there.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vitrine des eingangs genannten Aufbaus zu schaffen, bei der die konstruktiven Funktionselemente in einfacher Weise anbringbar sind.The invention has for its object to provide a display case of the aforementioned construction, in which the structural functional elements can be attached in a simple manner.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einer Vitrine gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1 dadurch gelöst, daß in dem Tragrahmen auf dessen der Tür zugewandten Fläche zumindest abschnittsweise eine Schiene ausgebildet ist, wobei die konstruktiven Funktionselemente entlang der Schiene verstellbar sowie in dieser festlegbar sind. Als konstruktive Funktionselemente finden dabei insbesondere Scharniere und/oder Gasfederkonsolen und/oder Eckverbinder und/oder Verriegelungsvorrichtungen und/oder Schließbleche Verwendung.This object is achieved in a showcase according to the preamble of claim 1 in that a rail is formed at least in sections on the surface facing the door in the supporting frame, the structural functional elements being adjustable along the rail as well are definable in this. Hinges and / or gas spring brackets and / or corner connectors and / or locking devices and / or striking plates are used in particular as constructive functional elements.

Zur Montage der konstruktiven Funktionselemente werden diese in die Schiene eingesetzt und an ihre Soll- bzw. Einbauposition verschoben, in der sie an dem Tragrahmen und/oder der Tür festgelegt werden. Zur Festlegung der konstruktiven Funktionselemente sind sämtliche der bekannten Maßnahmen einsetzbar, insbesondere werden die konstruktiven Funktionselemente jedoch in der Schiene verklemmt, verschraubt, vernietet, verrastet, verschweißt oder verklebt.To assemble the structural functional elements, these are inserted into the rail and moved to their desired or installation position, in which they are fixed on the support frame and / or the door. All of the known measures can be used to determine the constructive functional elements, but in particular the constructive functional elements are clamped, screwed, riveted, locked, welded or glued in the rail.

Die Schiene kann nur in Teilbereichen des Tragrahmens oder umlaufend auf allen, der Tür zugewandten Flächen des Tragrahmens ausgebildet sein, wobei an der Verbindungsstelle zwischen einzelnen Tragrahmen-Elementen ein glatter Übergang der Schiene vorgesehen sein sollte. Auf diese Weise können die konstruktiven Funktionselemente in einfacher Weise an beliebiger Stelle am Tragrahmen angebracht werden, wodurch eine Anpassung an die herrschenden Einbaubedingungen möglich ist.The rail can be formed only in partial areas of the support frame or all round on all surfaces of the support frame facing the door, with a smooth transition of the rail should be provided at the connection point between individual support frame elements. In this way, the constructive functional elements can be attached in a simple manner at any point on the support frame, which enables adaptation to the prevailing installation conditions.

Eine sichere Führung der konstruktiven Funktionselemente während des Verstellens bzw. des Verschiebens auf ihre Sollposition sowie eine genau definierte Einbaulage kann erreicht werden, wenn die Schiene im wesentlichen u-förmig ausgebildet ist und einen Schienenboden sowie an dessen Längsseite verlaufende Führungsschenkel aufweist, die im wesentlichen senkrecht zum Schienenboden vorstehen. Dabei weisen die konstruktiven Funktionselemente in bevorzugter Ausgestaltung Gleitschuhe auf, die in die Schienen einsetzbar und entlang dieser verschiebbar sind. Die Breite der Gleitschuhe entspricht dabei vorzugsweise im wesentlichen der lichten Weite der Schiene, so daß eine enge Passung und genaue Führung erreicht ist.Reliable guidance of the structural functional elements during the adjustment or displacement to their desired position and a precisely defined installation position can be achieved if the rail is essentially U-shaped and has a rail base and guide legs running on the longitudinal side thereof, which are essentially vertical protrude to the rail floor. In a preferred embodiment, the constructive functional elements have sliding shoes that can be inserted into the rails and displaceable along them. The width the slide shoes preferably corresponds essentially to the inside width of the rail, so that a tight fit and precise guidance is achieved.

Insbesondere bei der Anbringung eines konstruktiven Funktionselementes ist es sinnvoll, wenn dieses an der gewünschten Stelle vorpositioniert werden kann, bevor es endgültig befestigt wird. Dies kann in einfacher Weise dadurch gewährleistet werden, daß die Führungsschenkel an ihrem freien Ende zur Bildung eines Hinterschnitts zur Mitte der Schiene abgewinkelt sind. Durch die Abwinklungen bzw. den Hinterschnitt ist verhindert, daß die Führungsschuhe aus der Schiene herausfallen können, so daß die Anbringung der konstruktiven Funktionselemente wesentlich erleichtert ist. Die Führungsschuhe der konstruktiven Funktionselemente werden entweder seitlich in die Schiene eingeschoben, es können jedoch auch Einsetzabschnitte in der Schiene vorgesehen sein. In derartigen Einsetzabschnitten sind keine Abwinklungen der Führungsschenkel vorgesehen, so daß die Führungsschuhe in diesen Abschnitten von oben in die Schiene eingesetzt und durch Verschieben entlang der Schiene hinter die Abwinklungen geführt werden können, wodurch die Führungsschuhe in der Schiene gehalten sind.In particular when attaching a constructive functional element, it makes sense if it can be pre-positioned at the desired location before it is finally attached. This can be ensured in a simple manner in that the guide legs are angled at their free end to form an undercut to the center of the rail. The bends or the undercut prevent the guide shoes from falling out of the rail, so that the attachment of the structural functional elements is made considerably easier. The guide shoes of the structural functional elements are either inserted laterally into the rail, but insertion sections can also be provided in the rail. In such insertion sections there are no bends in the guide legs, so that the guide shoes in these sections can be inserted into the rail from above and guided behind the bends by sliding along the rail, whereby the guide shoes are held in the rail.

Vorzugsweise weist die Tür einen im wesentlichen ebenen Türrahmen auf, der in der geschlossenen Stellung am Tragrahmen anliegt. Der Türrahmen kann wie der Tragrahmen in bekannter Weise aus einem Hohlprofil aus Stahl oder Aluminium gebildet sein, wobei insbesondere Strangpreßprofile Verwendung finden.The door preferably has an essentially flat door frame which, in the closed position, lies against the support frame. Like the supporting frame, the door frame can be formed in a known manner from a hollow profile made of steel or aluminum, extruded profiles being used in particular.

Um die Anbringung der konstruktiven Funktionselemente an dem Türrahmen, insbesondere der Eckverbinder für den Türrahmen, der Scharniere, der Verriegelungsvorrichtung und der Gasfederkonsole zu erleichtern, ist in bevorzugund der Gasfederkonsole zu erleichtern, ist in bevorzugter Ausgestaltung der Erfindung vorgesehen, daß auch in dem Türrahmen auf dessen dem Tragrahmen zugewandten Fläche eine umlaufende Schiene ausgebildet ist, in der die konstruktiven Funktionselemente verstellbar und in der sie festlegbar sind. Dabei kann vorgesehen sein, daß die im Türrahmen ausgebildete Schiene der Schiene im Tragrahmen gegenüberliegt, so daß die den Türrahmen mit dem Tragrahmen verbindenden konstruktiven Funktionselemente, beispielsweise die Gasfederkonsole, platzsparend eingebaut werden können.In order to facilitate the attachment of the structural functional elements to the door frame, in particular the corner connectors for the door frame, the hinges, the locking device and the gas spring bracket, it is preferred in and To facilitate the gas spring bracket, it is provided in a preferred embodiment of the invention that a circumferential rail is also formed in the door frame on the surface facing the support frame, in which the structural functional elements are adjustable and in which they can be fixed. It can be provided that the rail formed in the door frame is opposite the rail in the support frame, so that the structural functional elements connecting the door frame to the support frame, for example the gas spring bracket, can be installed in a space-saving manner.

Die Möglichkeit einer nach vorgegebenen Bedingungen variierenden Anordnung der konstruktiven Funktionselemente ist gegeben, wenn die im Türrahmen ausgebildete Schiene die gleiche Querschnittform wie die Schiene im Tragrahmen aufweist.The possibility of an arrangement of the structural functional elements according to predetermined conditions is given if the rail formed in the door frame has the same cross-sectional shape as the rail in the support frame.

In bevorzugter Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, daß der Schienenboden mit zumindest einem Durchbruch versehen ist, in den ein Verriegelungselement einführbar ist.In a preferred embodiment of the invention it is provided that the rail base is provided with at least one opening into which a locking element can be inserted.

Bei Vitrinen, die auf öffentlichen Plätzen aufgestellt sind, muß dafür gesorgt sein, daß das eventuell in den Vitrinenaufbau eindringende Wasser ablaufen kann. Bei bekannten Vitrinen ist zu diesem Zweck im oberen Bereich des Tragrahmens eine Regenrinne angebracht. Bei Vitrinen, deren Tragrahmen im wesentlichen vertikal angeordnet ist, ist die Regenrinne üblicherweise am oberen Tragrahmenabschnitt befestigt. Im bevorzugter Ausgestaltung der Erfindung kann jedoch vorgesehen sein, daß an die Schiene des oberen Tragrahmenabschnittes eine Regenrinne einstückig angeformt ist. Die Regenrinne ist dabei vorzugsweise von einem entsprechend ausgestalteten Führungsschenkel gebilschuhs in der Schiene als auch zur Ableitung des eindringenden Regenwassers dient.In the case of showcases that are set up in public places, care must be taken to ensure that any water that may penetrate the display case structure can run off. In known showcases, a rain gutter is attached for this purpose in the upper area of the support frame. In showcases whose support frame is arranged essentially vertically, the rain gutter is usually attached to the upper support frame section. In a preferred embodiment of the invention, however, it can be provided that a rain gutter is integrally formed on the rail of the upper support frame section. The rain gutter is preferably made of a correspondingly configured guide leg in the rail as well as to drain the penetrating rainwater.

Eine Vitrine besitzt einen geschlossenen, im wesentlichen rechteckigen Tragrahmen 10, von dem in Figur 1 lediglich der obere Längsträger 11 im Schnitt dargestellt ist, der aus einem Hohlprofil vorzugsweise aus Aluminium besteht.
An dem Tragrahmen 10 ist auf dessen Vorder- bzw. Rückseite jeweils eine Tür gelenkig angeschlossen, die einen aus Hohlprofilen 20a aufgebauten Türrahmen 20 aufweist. In den Türrahmen 20 ist in bekannter Weise eine Glasscheibe 23 eingepaßt und mittels einer Glasleiste 22 gehalten.
A showcase has a closed, substantially rectangular support frame 10, of which only the upper longitudinal member 11 is shown in section in Figure 1, which consists of a hollow profile, preferably made of aluminum.
On the front and rear sides of the support frame 10, a door is connected in an articulated manner, which has a door frame 20 constructed from hollow profiles 20a. In the door frame 20, a glass pane 23 is fitted in a known manner and held by means of a glass strip 22.

Auf der dem jeweiligen Türrahmen 20 zugewandten Seitenfläche 11a des Längsträgers 11 des Tragrahmens 10 ist eine u-förmige, nach außen offene Schiene 13 ausgebildet, die im wesentlichen senkrecht zur Zeichenebene verläuft. Die beiden senkrecht zur Seitenfläche 11a des Längsträgers 11 vorstehenden Führungsschenkel 13a weisen an ihrem freien Ende Abwinklungen 13b in Richtung der Schienenmitte auf, wodurch Hinterscheidungen gebildet sind.On the side face 11a of the side member 11 of the support frame 10 facing the respective door frame 20, a U-shaped, outwardly open rail 13 is formed, which runs essentially perpendicular to the plane of the drawing. The two guide legs 13a projecting perpendicularly to the side surface 11a of the longitudinal beam 11 have at their free end bends 13b in the direction of the center of the rail, as a result of which undercuts are formed.

Die gemäß Figur 1 oberen Führungsschenkel 13a der Schiene 13 sind anschließend an das freie Ende der Abwinklung 13b nach außen hin verlängert und abschließend nach oben abgewinkelt, wodurch eine einstückig angeformte Regenrinne 14 gebildet ist, die das eintretende Regenwasser aufnehmen und in nicht dargestellter Weise abführen kann.The upper guide legs 13a of the rail 13 according to FIG. 1 are then extended outwards to the free end of the bend 13b and finally angled upwards, thereby forming an integrally formed rain gutter 14 which can absorb the incoming rainwater and discharge it in a manner not shown .

In dem Türrahmen 20 ist jeweils auf der dem Tragrahmen 10 zugewandten Fläche eine weitere Schiene 21 ausgebildet, die im wesentlichen den gleichen Querschnitt wie die Schiene 13 des Längsträgers 11 aufweist, wobei jedoch die Schiene 21 einen nach innen offenen u-förmigen Querschnitt besitzt. Die Schienen 13 und 21 sind mit ihrer Öffnung einander zugewandt und etwa auf der gleichen Höhe gegenüberliegend angeordnet.In the door frame 20, a further rail 21 is formed on the surface facing the support frame 10, which essentially has the same cross section as the rail 13 of the longitudinal member 11, but the rail 21 has an inwardly open U-shaped cross section. The opening of the rails 13 and 21 faces one another and is arranged opposite one another at approximately the same height.

In die Schienen 13 und 21 sind verschiedene konstruktive Funktionselemente einsetzbar, von denen in Figur 1 zwei dargestellt sind.Various structural functional elements can be inserted into the rails 13 and 21, two of which are shown in FIG. 1.

Gemäß der linken Darstellung in Figur 1 ist ein Verriegelungselement 24 angeordnet, das einen Führungsschuh 25 aufweist, der in die Schiene 21 des Türrahmens 20 eingeschoben und in nicht dargestellter Weise, beispielsweise mittels einer Verschraubung oder Nietung in dieser festgelegt ist. Der Führungsschuh 25 entspricht in seiner Breite etwa der Weite der Schiene 21, so daß eine eng tolerierte Führung erreicht ist. Die Verriegelungsvorrichtung 24 weist eine um eine senkrecht zur Zeichenebene verlaufende Achse schwenkbare Sperrklinke 26 auf, die in bekannter Weise unter einer Federspannung in ihre Sperrstellung steht. In dem Längsträger 11 ist zwischen den Führungsschenkeln 13a, d.h. in dem Schienenboden, zumindest ein Durchbruch 15 ausgebildet, in den die Sperrklinke 26 bei Schließen des Türrahmens 20 eingreift. Ein am vorderen Ende der Sperrklinke 26 ausgebildeter Eingriffsvorsprung 26a kann dabei die Seitenwand des Hohlprofils des Längsträgers 11 hintergreifen und somit den Türrahmen 20 an diesem verriegeln. Zum Lösen der Verriegelung wird die Sperrklinke 26 entgegen der Wirkung einer nicht dargestellten Feder soweit geschwenkt, daß der Eingriffsvorsprung 26a von der Wand des Längsträger 10 freikommt und zusammen mit dem Türrahmen 20 herausgeschwenkt werden kann.According to the left representation in Figure 1, a locking element 24 is arranged, which has a guide shoe 25 which is inserted into the rail 21 of the door frame 20 and is fixed in a manner not shown, for example by means of a screw or rivet. The width of the guide shoe 25 corresponds approximately to the width of the rail 21, so that tightly tolerated guidance is achieved. The locking device 24 has a pawl 26 which can be pivoted about an axis running perpendicular to the plane of the drawing and which is in a known manner under spring tension in its locking position. At least one opening 15, into which the pawl is formed, is formed in the longitudinal beam 11 between the guide legs 13a, ie in the rail bottom 26 engages when the door frame 20 is closed. An engaging projection 26a formed at the front end of the pawl 26 can engage behind the side wall of the hollow profile of the side member 11 and thus lock the door frame 20 thereon. To release the lock, the pawl 26 is pivoted against the action of a spring, not shown, so far that the engagement projection 26a comes free from the wall of the side member 10 and can be pivoted out together with the door frame 20.

Gemäß der rechten Darstellung in Figur 1 ist in der Schiene 13 des Längsträgers 11 ein Führungsschuh 28 eines Scharnierelementes 27 angeordnet und in nicht näher dargestellter Weise festgelegt. Das Scharnierelement 27 umgreift mit seinem freien Ende einen an Türrahmen 20 ausgebildeten Zapfen 29, der sich im wesentlichen senkrecht zur Zeichenebene erstreckt. Auf diese Weise kann der Türrahmen 20 um eine senkrecht zur Zeichenebene verlaufende Achse geschwenkt werden.According to the illustration on the right in FIG. 1, a guide shoe 28 of a hinge element 27 is arranged in the rail 13 of the longitudinal beam 11 and fixed in a manner not shown in detail. The free end of the hinge element 27 engages around a pin 29 which is formed on the door frame 20 and extends essentially perpendicular to the plane of the drawing. In this way, the door frame 20 can be pivoted about an axis running perpendicular to the plane of the drawing.

Neben der erläuterten Verriegelungsvorrichtung 24 und dem Schanierelement 27 lassen sich in der Schiene 13 bzw. 21 auch noch andere konstruktive Funktionselemente anordnen und festlegen. In Figur 2 ist eine Rahmenecke eines Tragrahmens 10 gezeigt, die von dem oberen Längsträger 11 und einem Vertikalträger 12 gebildet ist. Sowohl in dem oberen Längsträger 11 als auch im Vertikalträger 12 ist eine Schiene 13 mit dem erläuterten Querschnitt ausgebildet, wobei die Schiene 13 in der Kontaktebene der beiden Träger 11 und 12 unter einem rechten Winkel ineinander übergehen. In die auf diese Weise gebildete abgewinkelte Schiene ist ein Eckverbinder 30 eingesetzt, der von einem entsprechend abgewinkelten Flachstahl oder ähnlichem gebildet ist. Der obere Schenkel 30a des Eckverbinders 30 ist in der Schiene 13 des oberen Längsträgers 11 mittels dreier Schrauben oder Nieten 31 festgelegt, während der untere Schenkel 30b in der Schiene 13 des Vertikalträgers 12 mittels Schrauben oder Nieten 32 festgelegt ist. Auf diese Weise kann eine biegesteife Rahmenecke ausgebildet werden.In addition to the described locking device 24 and the hinge element 27, other constructive functional elements can also be arranged and fixed in the rail 13 or 21. In Figure 2, a frame corner of a support frame 10 is shown, which is formed by the upper longitudinal beam 11 and a vertical beam 12. Both in the upper longitudinal beam 11 and in the vertical beam 12, a rail 13 is formed with the cross-section explained, the rail 13 merging into one another at a right angle in the contact plane of the two beams 11 and 12. In the angled rail formed in this way, a corner connector 30 is inserted, which is formed by a correspondingly angled flat steel or the like. The upper leg 30a of the corner connector 30 is fixed in the rail 13 of the upper longitudinal beam 11 by means of three screws or rivets 31, while the lower leg 30b is fixed in the rail 13 of the vertical beam 12 by means of screws or rivets 32. In this way, a rigid frame corner can be formed.

Alternativ oder zusätzlich dazu kann zwischen dem Türrahmen und dem Tragrahmen eine Gasfederkonsole 14 zur Dämpfung der Schwenkbewegung des Türrahmen angeordnet sein, wie in Figur 3 dargestellt ist. In die Schiene 13 des Vertikalträgers 12 des Tragrahmens 10 ist ein Führungsschuh 43a eines Anschlußstückes 43 eingesetzt und in nicht näher dargestellter Weise festgelegt. Das Anschlußstück 43 weist eine Bohrung auf, an der ein Augenstab der Gasfederkonsole 40 anlenkbar ist. In entsprechender Ausgestaltung ist in der Schiene 13 des Türrahmens 20 ein entsprechendes Anschlußstück 43 über seinen Führungsschuh 43a eingesetzt und befestigt. An diesem im Türrahmen 20 festgelegten Anschlußstück 43 ist das andere Ende der Gasfederkonsole angelenkt. Die Gasfederkonsole 40 besteht aus einem Kolben 42 sowie einem den Kolben aufnehmenden Zylinder 41. Wie Figur 3 zeigt, befindet sich die Gasfederkonsole 40 in der geschlossenen Stellung des Türrahmens 20 in ihrer eingefahrenen Position, während sie bei geöffnetem Türrahmen 20 ihre ausgezogene Position einnimmt und den Türrahmen am Tragrahmen abstützt.Alternatively or additionally, a gas spring bracket 14 can be arranged between the door frame and the support frame to dampen the pivoting movement of the door frame, as shown in FIG. 3. In the rail 13 of the vertical support 12 of the support frame 10, a guide shoe 43a of a connector 43 is inserted and fixed in a manner not shown. The connector 43 has a bore on which an eye rod of the gas spring bracket 40 is articulated. In a corresponding embodiment, a corresponding connector 43 is inserted and fastened in the rail 13 of the door frame 20 via its guide shoe 43a. The other end of the gas spring bracket is articulated to this connector 43 fixed in the door frame 20. The gas spring bracket 40 consists of a piston 42 and a cylinder 41 receiving the piston Door frame supported on the support frame.
