Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen höhenverstellbaren
Tisch, insbesondere Schreibtisch, mit mindestens
einem Tischfuß, gemäß dem ersten Teil des Anspruchs 1.
Ein Solche Tisch ist aus der US-A-2 875 007, US-A-2 999 729 US-A-3 410
234 sowie US-A-3 915 102 bekannt.The invention relates to a height adjustable
Table, especially desk, with at least
a table base, according to the first part of
Bei Tischen, insbesondere Schreibtischen, ist es aus ergonomischen Gründen wünschenswert, die Tischhöhe an die Körpergröße der an dem Tisch arbeitenden Person anzupassen. Zu diesem Zweck ist es üblich, zum Beispiel stufenlos oder in bestimmten vorgegebenen Abstufungen in ihrer Höhe teleskopartig verstellbare Tischfüsse zu verwenden. With tables, especially desks, it is desirable for ergonomic reasons Table height to the height of the person at the table adapt working person. For this purpose it is common, for example, stepless or in certain predetermined gradations in their Height of telescopically adjustable table feet use.
Der Neuerung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Tischfuß mit zwei Vertikalstützen so zu gestalten, daß die Vertikalstützen gemeinsam und gleichzeitig in bestimmten, von der Größe der Bedienungsperson abhängigen Höhenstellungen des Tisches feststellbar sind.The innovation is based on the task, one To design the table base with two vertical supports that the vertical supports together and at the same time in certain, by the size of the operator dependent height positions of the table can be determined are.
Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe ist der erfindungsgemäße
höhenverstellbare Tisch durch die Merkmale des zweiten Teils des
Anspruchs 1.
Die arretier- und Klemmzapfen, sind vorzugsweise gegen Drehung
gesichert, und deren sich nach außen vorzugsweise konisch
verjüngende Enden in im Abstand voneinander
liegende Öffnungen der sich gegenüberstehenden
Innenrohre einschiebbar sind.To solve this problem is the invention
height adjustable table by the characteristics of the second part of the
Der erfindungsgemäße Tisch wird im folgenden
anhand der Zeichnung näher beschrieben.
Figur 1 zeigt einen Tisch, insbesondere Schreibtisch
1, mit einer oberen Tischplatte 2 und einem von
zwei Tischfüssen 3. Der einzelne Tischfuß 3 besteht
aus zwei in seitlichem Abstand voneinander
angeordneten Außenrohrelementen 4, in denen zwei
Innenrohrelemente 5 teleskopartig geführt sind.
Die beiden Außenrohre 4 sind durch einen sich über
einen Teil der Tischfußhöhe erstreckenden nicht
dargestellten Mittelsteg miteinander verbunden und
bilden somit eine starre Einheit. An die
Außenseiten beziehungsweise die Außenmantelflächen
der Außenrohre sind sich vertikal erstreckende
Verblendungen 6 angesetzt, von den in den Figuren 2
und 3 nur jeweils eine Verblendung dargestellt ist.Figure 1 shows a table, in particular a
Die aus den unteren Enden der Außenrohre 4
ausfahrbaren Innenrohre 5 sind mit ihren unteren
Enden an einer gemeinsamen, horizontal liegenden
Abstützung 7 befestigt. Zwischen den beiden
Außenrohren 4 ist im wesentlichen im Bereich des
Mittelsteges zwischen den beiden Abblendungen 6
ein Arretier- und Klemmechanismus angeordnet, der
zwei mittels eines Betätigungsorganes 8 gleichzeitig
nach außen in Richtung der Außen- und
Innenrohre 4, 5 verstellbare Arretier- und
Klemmzapfen 9 umfaßt. Diese sich zu ihren Enden hin
konisch verjüngenden Arretier- und Klemmzapfen 9
sind in im einzelnen nicht bezifferte und
dargestellte, im vertikalen Abstand übereinanderliegende
Öffnungen der Innenrohre 5 einschiebbar.
Zu diesem Zweck sind an dem Betätigungsorgan 8,
vorzugsweise einem Rändelrad, zwei entgegengesetzt
gerichtete erste Gewindeelemente in Form von
Gewindestiften 10, 11 angeordnet, von denen der eine
ein Rechtsgewinde und der andere ein Linksgewinde
aufweist. Diese beiden Gewindestifte 10 bzw. 11
wirken mit zwei komplementären Gewindeelementen
in Form von Gewindemuttern oder Gewindehülsen 12
bzw. 13 zusammen, an denen die beiden nach außen
gerichteten Arretier- und Klemmzapfen 9 angebracht
sind. Durch Drehen des Rändelrades 8 in der einen
Richtung können die beiden gegen Drehung gesicherten
Gewindehülsen 12 bzw. 13 gleichzeitig nach außen
in die entsprechenden Öffnungen der Innenrohre 5
ausgefahren werden, während durch Drehen
des Rändelrades in der entgegengesetzten Richtung
die beiden Arretier- und Klemmzapfen 9 nach innen
solange eingezogen werden können, bis die
Innenrohre relativ zu den Außenrohren verstellt
werden können.The from the lower ends of the
Die Innen- und Außenrohre weisen vorzugsweise Führungselemente auf, die eine Drehung dieser beiden Elemente relativ zueinander verhindern. Gemäß der zeichnerischen Darstellung haben die Außen- und Innenrohre beispielsweise einen sechseckigen Querschnitte.The inner and outer tubes preferably have Guide elements on that a rotation of this prevent both elements relative to each other. According to the drawing, the For example, outer and inner tubes hexagonal cross sections.
