Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf ein Multifunktionswerkzeug mit zwei aus einer Parallelstellung schwenkbar einander zugekehrten Griffteilen, und mit einem im Bereich der Schwenkstelle angeordneten Werkzeug, wobei mindestens ein um eine Achse, die dem der Schwenkstelle gegenüberliegenden Ende des Griffteils zugeordnet ist, schwenkbares Zusatzwerkzeug zugeordnet ist, welches aus einer eingeschwenkten Verwahrstellung in eine etwa um 180° ausgeschwenkte Gebrauchsstellung gegen einen Anschlag ausschwenkbar ist.The invention relates to a multi-function tool with two of a Parallel position pivotally facing each other handle parts, and with a arranged in the region of the pivot point tool, wherein at least one about an axis which is the opposite end of the pivoting part of the handle part is assigned, pivotable additional tool is assigned, which is made a swiveled Verwahrstellung swung in about 180 ° Use position is swung against a stop.

Ein Multifunktionswerkzeug dieser Art ist durch die US-PS 6,014,787 bekannt. Das Werkzeug ist eine Zange, deren maulabgewandten, jenseits der Gelenkverbindung liegenden Enden die Schwenkstelle für die Griffteile aufweisen. Die Zusatzwerkzeuge sind z.B. eine Schere, ein Schraubendreher, ein Kapselöffner usw. In der Verwahrstellung kommen die entsprechend eingeklappten Zusatzwerkzeuge ebenso in einer Seitenhöhlung der Griffteile unter wie der die größte Raumforderung aufweisende Kopf der Zange. Die Länge der Höhlung wird anteilig von den erwähnten Utensilien eingenommen.A multifunction tool of this type is known from US Pat. No. 6,014,787. The tool is a pair of pliers, their maulabgewandten, beyond the hinge connection lying ends have the pivot point for the handle parts. The Additional tools are e.g. a pair of scissors, a screwdriver, a capsule opener etc. In the storage position the corresponding folded additional tools come as well in a Seitenhöhlung the handle parts as the largest mass bearing head of the forceps. The length of the cavity is taken proportionately by the mentioned utensils.

Ausgehend von dem genannten Stand der Technik besteht die Aufgabe der Erfindung darin, das gattungsgemäße Multifunktionswerkzeug handhabungstechnisch zu verbessern.Based on the cited prior art, the object of the invention therein, the generic multi-function tool handling technology to improve.

Diese Aufgabe ist zunächst und im Wesentlichen bei einem Multifunktionswerkzeug mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst, wobei darauf abgestellt ist, dass das Werkzeug ein Korkenzieher ist und die beiden Griffteile aus der Parallelstellung anschlagbegrenzt nur bis in eine Gestrecktlage schwenkbar sind. Das führt zu einem bestens in der Greifhand liegenden Quergriff. Über den lässt sich das Werkzeug gezielt ansetzen und die korkenziehertypische Drehhandhabung kraftvoll ausführen. Gleichwohl ist auch hier die Parallelstellung im Sinne der schützenden bzw. geschützten Umrahmung des Werkzeuges berücksichtigbar.This task is initially and essentially a multifunction tool solved with the features of claim 1, wherein it turned off is that the tool is a corkscrew and the two handle parts from the Parallel stop limited only pivotable to a stretched position are. This leads to a gripping hand optimally located in the gripping hand. about The tool can be targeted and the corkscrew typical Perform rotary handling powerfully. Nevertheless, here too the parallel position in the sense of the protective or protected frame of the tool berücksichtigbar.

Die Gegenstände der weiteren Ansprüche sind nachstehend in Bezug zu dem Gegenstand des Anspruches 1 erläutert, können aber auch in ihrer unabhängigen Formulierung von Bedeutung sein. So wird weiter vorgeschlagen, dass der Korkenzieher beim Schwenken der Griffteile in einer winkelhalbierenden Stellung bleibend gesteuert ist. Das lässt einen zunehmend größer werdenden, beiderseits gleich großen Hintergreifraum entstehen und vermeidet Verletzungen am peripher meist etwas schneidenartig gestalteten Wendelkörper des Korkenziehers. Die baulichen Mittel hierzu sind einfach und gebrauchsstabil. So wird die Steuerung von einem Zahneingriff zweier jeweils einem der beiden Griffteile zugeordneter Zahnsegmente erreicht. Über den Zahneingriff heben die Griffteile synchron vom Werkzeug ab bzw. umgekehrt. Überdies bringt die Erfindung in Vorschlag, dass der Korkenzieher ein Fortsatz eines Verbindungssteges ist, der die beiden Griffteile miteinander verbindend lagert. Ein solcher praktisch schildartiger Verbindungssteg erfüllt insoweit eine Doppelfunktion, als er bereits stabiler Basisteil des Korkenziehers ist. In vorteilhafter Weise ist das Zahnsegment an einer Griffschale ausgebildet. Eine weitergehende Bedeutung des Verbindungssteges ergibt sich durch an dem Verbindungssteg angreifende Federzungen zur Arretierung der Griffteile in der Parallel- und Gestrecktstellung. Solche Präzisionsschaltglieder sind am Verbindungssteg gut geführt. Weiter besteht ein baulich vorteilhaftes Merkmal durch dem Verbindungssteg zugeordnete Achsabschnitte, die mindestens zwei parallel zueinander angeordnete Taschen für die ausschwenkbaren Zusatzwerkzeuge bildenden Erle miteinander verbinden. Über diese ausschwenkbaren Zusatzwerkzeuge verlängern sich hebelmäßig noch in günstiger Weise die Griffteile des oben geschilderten Quergriffs. Eine baulich vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung ergibt sich überdies durch in die Achsabschnitte eingeschraubte Befestigungsschrauben zur Fixierung der beiden Griffschalen. Optimiert ist dabei der Zusammenhalt dadurch, dass die Griffschalen an ihrem freien Ende unter einer Hakeneinschubrast mit einem der Erle verbunden sind. Eine solche Hakeneinschubrast ist zudem der Sicht entzogen, so dass das Äußere des Multifunktionswerkzeuges ansprechend ausfällt. Überdies ist vorgesehen, dass jedes der beiden Griffschalen eine Halbtasche ausbildet, die sich in der Parallelstellung der Griffteile zu einer denn Korkenzieher aufnehmenden Tasche ergänzen. Schließlich wird noch vorgeschlagen, dass die Tasche mittenversetzt liegt. So verbleibt ein etwa taschenlanger Unterbringungsraum auch für die Zusatzwerkzeuge. Diese können so von größerer Länge sein als beim erläuterten Vorläufer. Die Zusatzwerkzeuge sind eine Schere, eine Feile und/oder eine Messerklinge.The objects of the further claims are described below in relation to the The subject matter of claim 1 explained, but can also be used in their independent Be meaningful. Thus it is further suggested that the Corkscrew when pivoting the handle parts in a bisecting position is permanently controlled. This leaves an increasingly larger, both sides Equally large rear grip arise and avoids injuries on the periphery usually somewhat cut-like shaped spiral body of the corkscrew. The construction funds for this are simple and stable to use. So will the control of a tooth engagement of two each one of the two handle parts achieved associated tooth segments. About the tooth lift lift Handle parts synchronously from the tool or vice versa. Moreover, the invention brings in suggestion that the corkscrew is an extension of a connecting bar is, which connects the two handle parts connecting each other. Such a practically shield-like connecting web fulfills a dual function insofar, as he is already stable base part of the corkscrew. In an advantageous way the toothed segment formed on a handle shell. A further meaning of the connecting web results from acting on the connecting web Spring tongues for locking the handle parts in the parallel and extended position. Such precision switching elements are good at the connecting web guided. Next, there is a structurally advantageous feature through the connecting web associated axle sections, the at least two parallel to each other arranged pockets for the swing-out additional tools forming Alder connect with each other. About these swing-out additional tools leverage moderately extend the handle parts of the above described T-handle. A structurally advantageous embodiment results Moreover, by screwed into the axle sections mounting screws for fixing the two handles. The cohesion is optimized in that the handle shells at its free end under a Hakeneinschubrast associated with one of the alder. Such a hook insertion catch is also deprived of sight, so that the appearance of the multifunction tool appealing fails. Moreover, it is envisaged that each of the two handles a half-pocket forms, located in the parallel position of the handle parts to complement a pocket for corkscrews. Finally will nor suggested that the bag is middle offset. So remains about pocket-long storage space also for the additional tools. these can so be of greater length than the explained precursor. The additional tools are a pair of scissors, a file and / or a knife blade.

Das dargestellte Multifunktionswerkzeug umfasst außer dem eigentlichen Werkzeug I bordeigenes Zusatzwerkzeug II. Das Werkzeug I ist ein Korkenzieher 1.The illustrated multifunctional tool includes besides the actual one Tool I on-board additional tool II. The tool I is a corkscrew 1.

Der Korkenzieher 1 läuft an seinem freien Ende in eine geschärfte Eindringspitze 2 aus. Sein wendelförmiger Schaft geht in Gegenrichtung in einen plattenförmigen Verbindungssteg 3 über. Der Korkenzieher 1 ist so der abragende Fortsatz des Verbindungssteges 3.The corkscrew 1 runs at its free end into a sharpened indention point 2 off. Its helical shaft goes in the opposite direction in a plate-shaped Connecting web 3 via. The corkscrew 1 is so the protruding Extension of the connecting web 3.

Der seitliche Flügel 3' aufweisende Verbindungssteg 3 stellte im Bereich dieser das Lagerauge 4 zweier Griffteile 5 des Multifunktionswerkzeuges. Die Griffteile 5 nehmen einen gestreckten, heftförmigen Verlauf und sind beiderends endverrundet.The lateral wing 3 'having connecting web 3 placed in the area of this the bearing eye 4 two handle parts 5 of the multi-function tool. The handle parts 5 take a stretched, violent course and are at both ends endverrundet.

Die Lagerung der Griffteile 5 am Verbindungssteg 3 ist dergestalt, dass sie aus einer Parallelstellung, wie sie sich beispielsweise aus Fig. 1 ergibt, nur bis in eine Gestrecktlage schwenkbar sind, wie sie beispielsweise der Fig. 3 entnehmbar ist. Die Gestrecktlage ist ebenso wie die Parallelstellung anschlagbegrenzt.The storage of the handle parts 5 on the connecting web 3 is such that they are made a parallel position, as shown for example in FIG. 1, only up to a stretched position are pivotable, as for example in FIG. 3 can be removed is. The extended position as well as the parallel position stop limit.

In die besagte Gestrecktlage überführt, nimmt das Multifunktionswerkzeug eine profilmäßig T-förmige Gestalt ein. Der gleich lang abragende Schenkel aufweisende Quergriff G des in die Gebrauchsstellung überführen Werkzeuges erstreckt sich im Wesentlichen senkrecht zur Längsmittelebene x-x des Multifunktionswerkzeuges, in der der Schaft des Korkenziehers 1 verläuft. Der Korkenzieher 1 liegt betätigungsmäßig gut in der Hand.Converted to said stretched position, the multi-function tool takes a profile T-shaped shape. The same length protruding leg having transverse grip G of the transferred into the position of use tool extends substantially perpendicular to the longitudinal center plane x-x of the multifunction tool, in which the shaft of the corkscrew 1 runs. The corkscrew 1 is good in terms of operation in the hand.

Klappt man überdies, wie aus Fig. 3 ersichtlich, auch noch die Zusatzwerkzeuge II aus ihrer eingeschwenkten Verwahrstellung in eine etwa um 180° ausgeschwenkte Gebrauchsstellung, so sind die Hebelarme des Quergriffes G um die Länge der Zusatzwerkzeuge noch vergrößert. Da flach gegen die Griffteile 5 ausgeübte Kräfte zur Wirkung kommen, liegen die entsprechend in Flachlage zugeordneten Zusatzwerkzeuge II ausschließlich zur Bedienung ihrer Breitflächen frei. Beim Restzug am Korken einer Flasche erstrecken sich diese Zusatzwerkzeuge bezüglich ihrer Schmalflächen überdies im Rücken des Quergriffes G des Werkzeuges, also der Untergriffkante 6 der Griffteile 5 abgewandt.If one also works, as shown in Fig. 3, also the additional tools II swung out of its pivoted custody position into an approximately 180 ° Use position, so are the lever arms of the transverse grip G to the Length of additional tools still increased. Since flat against the handle parts. 5 applied forces come into effect, they are accordingly in a flat position assigned additional tools II exclusively for the operation of their wide surfaces free. When remaining on the cork of a bottle, these additional tools extend with respect to their narrow surfaces also in the back of the transverse handle G of the tool, ie the undercut edge 6 of the handle parts 5 facing away.

Im Bereich einer zentrumsartigen, bezüglich der Lageraugen 4 paarigen Schwenkstelle 7 des Multifunktionswerkzeuges liegt eine relativ großflächige Abstützung zwischen dem Verbindungssteg 3 und den dort angelenkten Griffteilen 5 vor.In the area of a center-like, with respect to the bearing eyes 4 paired Pivot 7 of the multi-function tool is a relatively large area Support between the connecting web 3 and the handle parts hinged there 5 ago.

Gleiches gilt auch im Hinblick auf die gleichsam satellitenartig zugeordneten, wahlweise verwendbaren Zusatzwerkzeuge II, welche um je eine Achse 8 schwenken, die dem der Schwenkstelle 7 gegenüberliegenden, freien Ende des Griffteils 5 zugeordnet sind.The same applies with regard to the satellite-like, as it were, optionally usable additional tools II, which each have an axis. 8 pivot, which is opposite to the pivot point 7, the free end of the Handle part 5 are assigned.

Bezüglich solcher Zusatzwerkzeuge II handelt es sich beispielsweise um eine Schere 9, Feile 10 und/ oder eine Messerklinge 11.With regard to such additional tools II is, for example, a Scissors 9, file 10 and / or a knife blade 11.

In Beiklappstellung kommen die Zusatzwerkzeuge II in mindestens zwei parallel zueinander angeordneten Taschen 12 unter. Die befinden sich zwischen Erlen 13. Die entsprechende Verwahrstellung ist der Zeichnung im Einzelnen entnehmbar, dies ebenso wie die erläuterte Griffverlängerung durch die Zusatzwerkzeuge II.In Beiklappstellung the additional tools II come in at least two parallel mutually arranged pockets 12 below. They are located between Erlen 13. The corresponding storage position is the drawing in detail removable, this as well as the explained handle extension by the additional tools II.

Die definierte, jeweils federkraftbeaufschlagte Parallelstellung und Gestrecktlage der Griffteile 5 beruht auf schnäpperartig wirkenden Elementen einer Art Schalteinrichtung. Die geht besonders deutlich aus den Figuren 17 und 18 hervor. Herzstück dieser Schalteinrichtung ist eine Federzunge 14. Die ist als Paket realisiert. Das besteht aus drei Federzungen 14. Deren Fuß 14' ist am Griffteil 5 festgelegt. Der selbst federfähige Kopf 14" liegt kraftvoll an einer vom Verbindungssteg 3, genauer seinen beiden identischen Flügeln 3' gestellten Schaltkontur an. Das stumpf gegen eine parallel zur Längsmittelebene x-x verlaufenden Flanke a tretende Stirnende des Kopfes 14" sichert die Gebrauchsstellung. Die Griffteile 5 können nicht in eine Hyperextensionslage treten. Der Kopf 14" liegt federbelastet in einer Winkelmulde des Verbindungssteges 3 ein. In Gegenrichtung lassen sich die Griffteile 5 jedoch verschwenken. Dies geschieht willensbetont, wobei die Federzunge 14 respektive ihr Kopf 14" über eine Stufenkante des Verbindungssteges 3 fährt, um sich anschließend mit einer gleichfalls in die Längsmittelebene x-x getretenen Kopf-Wirkfläche federnd gegen die stufenartig anschließende äußere Flanke b zu legen. Hierüber erfolgt die Arretierung der Griffteile 5 in der Parallelstellung. Das Ganze geschieht in einer Schwenkbewegung um die Lageraugen 4, genauer einen Achsabschnitt 15.The defined, each spring-loaded parallel position and stretched position the handle parts 5 is based on snap-acting elements of a kind Switching device. This is particularly clear from Figures 17 and 18. The heart of this switching device is a spring tongue 14. That is as a package realized. This consists of three spring tongues 14. Their foot 14 'is on the handle part. 5 established. The self-spring head 14 "is powerful on one of the connecting bridge 3, more precisely its two identical wings 3 'set switching contour at. The blunt against a parallel to the longitudinal center plane x-x extending Flank a passing front end of the head 14 "secures the position of use Handle parts 5 can not enter a Hyperextensionslage. The head 14 "lies spring-loaded in an angular recess of the connecting web 3 a. In the opposite direction However, the handle parts 5 can be pivoted. This is done willingly, wherein the spring tongue 14 and their head 14 "over a step edge of the connecting web 3 moves to then with a likewise in the Lateral center plane x-x stepped head-effective surface resilient against the step-like subsequent outer edge b to lay. Over this the locking of the Handle parts 5 in the parallel position. The whole thing happens in a swiveling motion around the bearing lugs 4, more precisely an axle section 15.

Der Achsabschnitt 15 ist paarig in den Verbindungssteg 3 eingelassen (vgl. Fig. 4). Er durchsetzt die Flügel 3'. Auf die beidseitig frei überstehenden Enden der Achsabschnitte 15 sind die stapelförmig einander zugeordneten, das Multifunktionswerkzeug bildenden Elemente aufgesteckt. Sie weisen dazu passende Durchbrechungen auf, durchgehend bezeichnet mit 16.The axle section 15 is embedded in pairs in the connecting web 3 (see FIG. 4). He passes through the wings 3 '. On the both sides freely protruding ends of the Achsabschnitte 15 are the stack-shaped mutually associated, the multi-function tool attached forming elements. You have matching Openings on, designated throughout with 16.

Die Achsabschnitte 15 besitzen zu beiden Seiten hin offenes Innengewinde auf. In dieses lassen sich Befestigungsschrauben 17 axial eindrehen. Unter Schließen des sandwich- oder lamellenartigen Aufbaues durchsetzen die Befestigungsschrauben 17 außen aufgelegte Griffschalen 18. Deren Fixierung geht besonders deutlich aus Fig. 16 hervor. Die Köpfe der Befestigungsschrauben 17 liegen in Vertiefungen ein. Die diesbezügliche lochbildende Durchbrechung trägt das Bezugszeichen 19. Die Durchbrechungen in den restlichen, das Lagerauge 4 stellenden Elementen sind gleichfalls mit 19 bezeichnet. The axle sections 15 have open internal threads on both sides. In this fixing screws 17 can screw in axially. Under close of the sandwich or lamellar structure enforce the mounting screws 17 externally mounted handles 18. Their fixation is special clearly shown in Fig. 16. The heads of the fastening screws 17 lie in Depressions. The relevant hole-forming opening carries the Reference numeral 19. The openings in the rest, the bearing eye. 4 Stellenden elements are also designated 19.

Die Verachsung der Zusatzwerkzeuge II ist hingegen der Sicht entzogen vorgenommen. Der diesbezügliche Lagerzapfen, die Achse 8, durchsetzt Erle 13, Federzungen 14 und, eben lagerungsbildend die Anlenkstellen der Zusatzwerkzeuge II. Er dient als Niet 20.The Verachsung of the additional tools II, however, made the view withdrawn. The relevant bearing pin, the axis 8, passes through Alder 13, spring tongues 14 and, just forming the bearing points of the additional tools II. He serves as a rivet 20.

Zur Sicherung des Fußes 14' der Federzunge 14 ist überdies eine Vernietung vorgenommen. Der entsprechende Niet trägt das Bezugszeichen 21 und durchtritt Bohrungen 22 der Erle 13.To secure the foot 14 'of the spring tongue 14 is also a riveting performed. The corresponding rivet bears the reference numeral 21 and passes Holes 22 of the alder 13.

Um eine gute Verankerung zwischen dem äußeren Erl 13 und der Griffschale 18 zu bekommen, ist in Nähe des den Lagerzapfen mitbildenden Niets 20, also im schwenkstellenfernen Bereich der Griffteile 5 noch eine zusätzliche Verankerung praktiziert. Dies konkretisiert sich darin, dass die Griffschalen 18 an ihrem freien Ende unter einer Hakeneinschubrast mit dem benachbarten Erl 13 stehen. Erlseitig besteht ein Haken 23. Der ist aus dem Erlmaterial freigeschnitten und etwa im Winkel von 45° in Richtung der Schwenkstelle 7 ausgefaltet. Im Gegenzug untergreift ein Gegenhaken 24, welcher an der Unterseite der Griffschale 18 ausgebildet ist, den Haken 23, und zwar unter Nutzung des Freischnittraumes. Diese formschlussartige und somit auch querseitig abstützende Hakeneinschubrast 23/24 ist mit Einziehen der hülsenartigen Achsabschnitte 15 gesichert.To ensure a good anchorage between the outer tang 13 and the grip shell 18 to get, is in the vicinity of the bearing pin-forming rivet 20, ie in Schwenkstellenfernen range of handle parts 5 still an additional anchorage practiced. This is substantiated in that the handles 18 at their free end under a Hakeneinschubrast with the adjacent Erl 13 stand. Erlseitig there is a hook 23. The cut from the Erlmaterial and folded out at an angle of 45 ° in the direction of the pivot point 7. In return engages under a counter hook 24, which at the bottom of the handle shell 18 is formed, the hook 23, using the free cut space. This form-fitting and thus also supporting the transverse side Hakeneinschubrast 23/24 is with retraction of the sleeve-like shaft sections 15th secured.

Die schwenkbar gelagerten Griffteile 5 befinden sich in gegenseitigem Mitnahmeeingriff. Das hat zur Folge, dass der Korkenzieher 1 beim Schwenken der Griffteile 5 in einer winkelhalbierenden Stellung bleibend gesteuert ist. Die Steuerung resultiert aus einem Zahneingriff der Griffteile 5. Dazu bildet ein Paar ebenengleicher Griffschalen 18 der beiden Griffteile 5, die lagerseitige Rundungskontur der Griffschalen 18 überragende Zahnsegmente 25 aus. Verzahnt ist die dem anschließenden Erl 13 zugewandte Halbdicke der Griffschalen. Die Zähne der ineinanderkämmenden Zahnsegmente sind im Wesentlichen trapezförmiger Gestalt. Der Zähnebogen geht je über gut einen Viertelkreis. Radiuspunkt ist die geometrische Achse der parallelen Achsabschnitte 15.The pivotally mounted handle parts 5 are in mutual driving engagement. This has the consequence that the corkscrew 1 when panning the Handle parts 5 is permanently controlled in a bisecting position. The Control results from a meshing of the handle parts 5. This forms a Pair of equal grip shells 18 of the two handle parts 5, the bearing side Rounding contour of the handles 18 superior tooth segments 25 off. toothed is the subsequent Erl 13 facing half thickness of the handles. The teeth of the intermeshing tooth segments are essentially trapezoidal shape. The teeth bow ever goes over a good quarter circle. Radius point is the geometric axis of the parallel axis sections 15th

In Parallelstellung der Griffteile 5 ist das Werkzeug I, der Korkenzieher 1 also, praktisch muldenartig eingebettet. Die diesbezügliche Verwahrstellung ergibt sich zum Beispiel aus Fig. 1. Erkennbar ist die Eindringspitze 2 ebenfalls in den Randschutz mit einbezogen, so dass das in Rede stehende Multifunktionswerkzeug gefahrfrei als Taschengerät mitgeführt werden kann.In parallel position of the handle parts 5 is the tool I, the corkscrew 1 so, embedded in a convenient trough-like manner. The related storage position results For example, from Fig. 1. Visible, the Eindringpitze 2 is also in the Edge protection included, so that in question multi-function tool safely as a pocket device can be carried.

Mit baulich einfachen Mitteln ist diese Schutzmaßnahme funktionssicher dadurch erreicht, dass jedes der beiden Griffteile 5 auf klapptechnisch gegeneinander gerichteten Seiten eine Halbtasche 26 ausbildet. Die ergänzen sich in der Parallelstellung der Griffteile 5 zu einer den Korkenzieher 1 eng umschließend aufnehmenden Tasche T. Die in Dickenrichtung des Multifunktionswerkzeuges gemessene Tiefe der Tasche T berücksichtigt gut den Außendurchmesser des gewendelten Schaftes des Korkenziehers 1. In die entsprechende Ausbuchtung sind bis zur Mitte des Multifunktionswerkzeuges gehend auch Erle 13 sowie das Federpaket einbezogen. Die entsprechende Ausräumung geht deutlich aus Fig. 16 hervor. Erkennbar ist so eine überlappende Zuordnung der Funktionsteile in der Verwahrstellung möglich. In einer oberen Etage kommt der Korkenzieher 1 unter sowie die Federzungen 14 zur Arretierung der Griffteile 5; in einer unteren Etage befinden sich die Zusatzwerkzeuge.With structurally simple means, this protective measure is functionally reliable achieved that each of the two handle parts 5 on folding technology against each other directed sides a half-pocket 26 forms. The complement each other in the Parallel position of the handle parts 5 to a corkscrew 1 tightly enclosing receiving pocket T. The thickness direction of the multifunctional tool measured depth of the pocket T takes into account well the outer diameter of the Coiled shaft of corkscrew 1. In the corresponding bulge are also going to the middle of the multi-tool alder 13 as well included the spring package. The corresponding removal is clear Fig. 16. Recognizable is an overlapping assignment of the functional parts possible in storage. On an upper floor comes the corkscrew 1 under and the spring tongues 14 for locking the handle parts 5; in a lower floor are the additional tools.

Die Raumausteilung geht auch aus den Figuren 12 und 13 hervor. Erkennbar endet die Innenseite des Verbindungssteges 3 in der Querschnittsmitte y-y des Werkzeuges. An den wesentlich dünneren Verbindungssteg 3 schließt der gewendelte Schaft des Korkenziehers 1 dezentral an mit erkennbarem Auswärtsversatz nach rechts gehend. The room layout is also apparent from Figures 12 and 13. recognizable ends the inside of the connecting web 3 in the cross-sectional center y-y of the Tool. At the much thinner connecting web 3 closes the coiled Shaft of corkscrew 1 decentralized with visible offset going right.

In der Längsmittelebene x-x liegend ist dem Verbindungssteg 3 unter Fortsetzung der Flanke a eine Öse 27 gegeben, dies zur Befestigung des Multifunktionswerkzeuges an einer Tragekette oder dergleichen.Lying in the longitudinal center plane x-x is the connecting web 3 under continuation the flank a given an eyelet 27, this for attachment of the multi-function tool on a carrying chain or the like.

Was die anschlagbegrenzte, federbelastete Ausklappstellung und die federbelastete Einklappstellung der Zusatzwerkzeuge II wie Schere 9, Feile 10 und/ oder Messerklinge 11 angeht, so sind diese definierten Endstellungen in gleicher Weise erreicht wie die Arretierung der Griffteile 5 am Verbindungssteg 3. Schaltkulisse ist dabei jedoch der um den Lagerzapfen, d.h. Niet 8 angelenkte Abschnitt des Zusatzwerkzeug-Schwanzes 28 und eine damit zusammenwirkende Federzunge 29. Die ist ebenfalls fußseitig verankert. Ihre Fesselung geht über den Niet 21 sowie ein Hakenmaul 30, das sich am Achsabschnitt 15 abstützt.What the stop-limited, spring-loaded Ausklappstellung and the spring-loaded Einklappstellung the additional tools II as scissors 9, file 10 and / or When knife blade 11 is concerned, these defined end positions are identical Way achieved as the locking of the handle parts 5 on the connecting web. 3 However, shift gate is the one around the journal, i. Rivet 8 hinged Section of the accessory tool tail 28 and a cooperating one Spring tongue 29. This is also anchored to the foot.
