Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Unterteilung einer Fläche in Teilflächen, umfassend einen die Fläche umspannenden Rahmen und zumindest eine am Rahmen angeordnete Leiste, wobei die Leiste derart am Rahmen angeordnet ist, dass zumindest zwei Teilflächen gebildet sind, und die Leiste am Rahmen entlang einer ersten Richtung verschiebbar angeordnet ist, sodass durch Verschiebung der Leiste die Abmessungen der Teilflächen in einer Richtung änderbar sind,The invention relates to a device for dividing a surface into partial areas, comprising a frame spanning the surface and at least one strip arranged on the frame, the strip being arranged on the frame in such a way that at least two partial areas are formed, and the strip on the frame along a first Direction is displaceable, so that the dimensions of the partial surfaces can be changed in one direction by moving the bar,

Aus dem Stand der Technik sind Vorrichtungen zur Unterteilung von Flächen durch derartige Rahmenstrukturen bekannt. Derartige Vorrichtungen werden beispielsweise verwendet, um die Öffnung von Müllaufnahmevorrichtungen in verschiedene Teilöffnungen zu unterteilen, sodass eine einfachere Mülltrennung erfolgen kann. Ebenso werden derartige Vorrichtungen zur Sicherung zerbrechlicher Gegenstände in großvolumigen Transportbehältern eingesetzt.Devices for dividing areas using such frame structures are known from the prior art. Such devices are used, for example, to divide the opening of garbage collection devices into different partial openings so that garbage can be separated more easily. Such devices are also used to secure fragile objects in large-volume transport containers.

Beispielsweise zeigen die DE 9 201 913 U1 und die US 8,950,620 B1 gattungsgemäße Vorrichtungen mit einem Rahmen und Leisten, die im Rahmen variabel anordenbar sind, um Müllsäcke oder dergleichen anbringen zu können. Ähnliche Vorrichtungen sind aus der WO 99/25616 A und aus der FR 2 957 064 A bekannt. Eine Vorrichtung zur Unterteilung von Pfannen in mehrere Teilflächen wird beispielsweise in der US 2 161 624 A geoffenbart.For example, they show DE 9 201 913 U1 and the US 8,950,620 B1 Generic devices with a frame and strips that can be variably arranged in the frame in order to be able to attach garbage bags or the like. Similar devices are from the WO 99/25616 A and from the FR 2 957 064 A known. A device for dividing pans into several partial areas is used, for example, in US 2,161,624 A revealed.

Ein Problem derartiger bekannter Vorrichtungen besteht jedoch darin, dass weder die Anzahl der Teilflächen, noch deren Abmessungen einfach geändert werden kann.However, a problem with such known devices is that neither the number of partial areas nor their dimensions can be easily changed.

Die bekannten Vorrichtungen sind fix und lassen sich insbesondere in ihrer Länge, aber auch in ihrer Anordnung nicht an die Gegebenheiten anpassen.The known devices are fixed and cannot be adapted to the circumstances, particularly in terms of their length or their arrangement.

Dokument US 2010/0072154 A1 offenbart eine Vorrichtung nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.document US 2010/0072154 A1 discloses a device according to the preamble of claim 1.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, die Nachteile des Standes der Technik zu überwinden. Insbesondere soll eine Vorrichtung zur Unterteilung einer Fläche realisiert werden, die es in einfacher und schneller Weise erlaubt, die Anzahl und Abmessungen der Teilflächen einer gegebenen Fläche an die Gegebenheiten anzupassen.The object of the invention is to overcome the disadvantages of the prior art. In particular, a device for subdividing an area is to be realized, which allows the number and dimensions of the partial areas of a given area to be adapted to the circumstances in a simple and quick manner.

Diese und andere Aufgaben werden erfindungsgemäß durch eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.These and other tasks are achieved according to the invention by a device with the features of patent claim 1.

Erfindungsgemäß ist vorgesehen, dass an der Leiste eine Querleiste winkelig, vorzugsweise im Wesentlichen rechtwinkelig, angeordnet ist. Die Querleiste ist am Rahmen entlang einer zweiten Richtung verschiebbar angeordnet, sodass durch die Leiste und die Querleiste zumindest zwei Teilflächen gebildet sind, deren Größen durch Verschiebung der Leiste und der Querleiste änderbar sind.According to the invention it is provided that a cross bar is arranged at an angle, preferably essentially at a right angle, on the bar. The cross bar is arranged on the frame so as to be displaceable along a second direction, so that at least two partial areas are formed by the bar and the cross bar, the sizes of which can be changed by moving the bar and the cross bar.

Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass durch die Leiste und die Querleiste zwei, drei oder vier Teilflächen im Rahmen gebildet sind. Die Teilflächen können somit vom Rahmen, der Leiste und/oder der Querleiste begrenzt sein. Die Querleiste kann insbesondere auch an Rahmenteilen des Rahmens bewegbar und/oder verschiebbar angeordnet sein.In particular, it can be provided that two, three or four partial areas are formed in the frame by the bar and the cross bar. The partial areas can therefore be limited by the frame, the bar and/or the cross bar. The crossbar can in particular also be arranged movably and/or displaceably on frame parts of the frame.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung ermöglicht es, durch Verschiebung der Leiste die Abmessungen der Teilflächen in einer Richtung zu ändern. Dadurch kann beispielsweise der vorhandene Platz in einem Behälter besser genutzt werden, um unterschiedlich große Gegenstände aufzunehmen. Je nach Größe des aufzunehmenden Gegenstandes kann die Leiste entsprechend verschoben werden, sodass sich unterschiedlich große Teilflächen ergeben.The device according to the invention makes it possible to change the dimensions of the partial areas in one direction by moving the bar. This means, for example, that the available space in a container can be better used to accommodate items of different sizes. Depending on the size of the object to be picked up, the bar can be moved accordingly to create partial areas of different sizes.

Erfindungsgemäß kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Leiste entlang der ersten Richtung und die Querleiste entlang der zweiten Richtung verschiebbar ist, wobei die erste Richtung mit der zweiten Richtung einen im Wesentlichen rechten Winkel einschließt.According to the invention, it can be provided that the bar is displaceable along the first direction and the transverse bar is displaceable along the second direction, the first direction enclosing a substantially right angle with the second direction.

Die erste Richtung kann einer Längsachse des Rahmens entsprechen. Die zweite Richtung kann einer Querachse des Rahmens entsprechen. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass der Rahmen rechteckig ist, wobei die erste Richtung der Längsachse des Rahmens, und die zweite Richtung der Querachse des Rahmens entspricht.The first direction may correspond to a longitudinal axis of the frame. The second direction may correspond to a transverse axis of the frame. In particular, it can be provided that the frame is rectangular, with the first direction corresponding to the longitudinal axis of the frame and the second direction corresponding to the transverse axis of the frame.

Erfindungsgemäß kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Leiste mit der Querleiste über einen Schlitten verbunden ist. Der Schlitten kann entlang der ersten Richtung bewegbar an der Leiste angeordnet sein. Der Schlitten kann auch entlang der zweiten Richtung bewegbar an der Querleiste angeordnet sein. Gegebenenfalls kann der Schlitten auch sowohl an der Leiste, als auch an der Querleiste beweglich angeordnet sein und sowohl entlang der ersten Richtung an der Leiste, als auch entlang der zweiten Richtung an der Querleiste verschiebbar sein.According to the invention it can be provided that the bar is connected to the crossbar via a slide. The carriage can be arranged on the bar so that it can move along the first direction. The carriage can also be arranged on the crossbar so that it can move along the second direction. If necessary, the carriage can also be arranged to be movable both on the bar and on the cross bar and can be displaceable both along the first direction on the bar and along the second direction on the cross bar.

Gegebenenfalls kann der Schlitten dazu eingerichtet sein, die Position der Leiste und/oder der Querleiste im Rahmen zu verändern. Durch die Veränderung der Position des Schlittens können somit die Größe der Teilflächen verändert werden.If necessary, the carriage can be set up to change the position of the bar and/or the crossbar in the frame. By changing the position of the carriage, the size of the partial areas can be changed.

Die Leiste und die Querleiste können an jeweils einem ihrer Enden miteinander verbunden sein, und am jeweils anderen Ende verschiebbar am Rahmen angeordnet sind. Die jeweiligen Enden der Leiste und Querleiste können in diesem Fall über ein festes Verbindungsteil zusammengeführt sein.The bar and the cross bar can each be connected to one another at one of their ends and can be displaceably arranged on the frame at the other end. In this case, the respective ends of the bar and cross bar can be brought together via a fixed connecting part.

Gegebenenfalls kann die Leiste an zwei, insbesondere gegenüberliegenden und vorzugsweise parallelen, Rahmenteilen verschiebbar angeordnet sein. Die Leiste kann auch an einem Rahmenteil und an einem Schlitten oder einer Querleiste angeordnet sein. Die Leiste kann auch an zwei, insbesondere parallelen, Querleisten angeordnet sein.If necessary, the bar can be displaceably arranged on two, in particular opposite and preferably parallel, frame parts. The bar can also be arranged on a frame part and on a carriage or a cross bar. The bar can also be arranged on two, in particular parallel, transverse bars.

Gegebenenfalls kann die Querleiste an zwei, insbesondere gegenüberliegenden und/oder parallelen, Rahmenteilen angeordnet sein. Die Querleiste kann auch an einem Rahmenteil und an einem Schlitten oder einer Leiste angeordnet sein. Die Querleiste kann auch an zwei, insbesondere parallelen, Leisten angeordnet sein.If necessary, the crossbar can be arranged on two, in particular opposite and/or parallel, frame parts. The cross bar can also be arranged on a frame part and on a carriage or a bar. The cross bar can also be arranged on two, in particular parallel, bars.

Erfindungsgemäß kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Leiste in ihrer Länge variabel ist. Erfindungsgemäß kann ebenfalls vorgesehen sein, dass die Querleiste in ihrer Länge variabel ist. Dadurch ergibt sich eine Vielzahl an möglichen Teilflächen, und eine Vielzahl an Variationsmöglichkeiten zur Anpassung dieser Teilflächen.According to the invention it can be provided that the length of the strip is variable. According to the invention it can also be provided that the length of the crossbar is variable. This results in a large number of possible partial areas and a large number of possible variations for adapting these partial areas.

Erfindungsgemäß kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Leiste mehrteilig ist und eine erste Leistenstange sowie eine zweite Leistenstange umfasst, die in einer Leistenhülse verschiebbar gelagert sind. Die Leistenstangen können relativ zur Leistenhülse durch Fixierelemente fixierbar sein. Die Länge der Leiste lässt sich somit durch Verschieben und Fixieren der Leistenstangen in der Leistenhülse variieren. Es kann aber auch vorgesehen sein, dass die Leistenstangen relativ zur Leistenhülse nicht fixierbar sind, sodass sich die Leiste an die räumlichen Gegebenheiten selbst anpasst.According to the invention, it can be provided that the strip is made up of several parts and comprises a first strip rod and a second strip rod, which are slidably mounted in a strip sleeve. The strip rods can be fixed relative to the strip sleeve by fixing elements. The length of the strip can therefore be varied by moving and fixing the strip rods in the strip sleeve. However, it can also be provided that the strip rods cannot be fixed relative to the strip sleeve, so that the strip adapts itself to the spatial conditions.

Erfindungsgemäß kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass die Querleiste mehrteilig ist. Insbesondere kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Querleiste eine erste Querleistenstange sowie eine zweite Querleistenstange umfasst, die in einer Querleistenhülse verschiebbar gelagert sind. Die Querleistenstangen können relativ zur Querleistenhülse durch Fixierelemente fixierbar sein. Die Länge der Querleiste lässt sich somit durch Verschieben und Fixieren der Querleistenstangen in der Querleistenhülse variieren. Es kann aber auch vorgesehen sein, dass die Querleistenstangen relativ zur Querleistenhülse nicht fixierbar sind, sodass sich die Querleiste an die räumlichen Gegebenheiten selbst anpasst. Es kann auch vorgesehen sein, dass die Querleiste mehr als zwei Querleistenstangen umfasst, die zur Längenverstellung teleskopförmig ausfahrbar sind. Dadurch können die Leiste und/oder die Querleiste im Wesentlichen auf die Größe der Leistenhülse bzw. der Querleistenhülse reduziert werden. Gegebenenfalls haben die Leisten eine minimale Länge, welche im Wesentlichen der Länge der Hülse entspricht, und eine maximale Länge, welche im Wesentlichen der Länge der ersten Stange, der zweiten Stange und der Hülse entspricht.According to the invention it can also be provided that the crossbar is in several parts. In particular, it can be provided that the crossbar comprises a first crossbar rod and a second crossbar rod, which are slidably mounted in a crossbar sleeve. The crossbar rods can be fixed relative to the crossbar sleeve by fixing elements. The length of the crossbar can therefore be varied by moving and fixing the crossbar rods in the crossbar sleeve. However, it can also be provided that the crossbar rods cannot be fixed relative to the crossbar sleeve, so that the crossbar adapts itself to the spatial conditions. It can also be provided that the crossbar comprises more than two crossbar rods, which can be extended telescopically for length adjustment. As a result, the bar and/or the cross bar can essentially be reduced to the size of the bar sleeve or the cross bar sleeve. Optionally, the strips have a minimum length which substantially corresponds to the length of the sleeve and a maximum length which substantially corresponds to the length of the first rod, the second rod and the sleeve.

Durch die Fixierelemente kann die Länge der Leiste und/oder der Querleiste in jeglicher Position fixiert werden. Dadurch kann die Länge der Leiste und/oder der Querleiste und die Abmessungen bzw. die Größe der Teilflächen fixiert werden.The length of the bar and/or the cross bar can be fixed in any position using the fixing elements. This allows the length of the bar and/or the crossbar and the dimensions or size of the partial areas to be fixed.

Gegebenenfalls kann vorgesehen sein, dass die Querleiste eine, zwei, drei oder mehr Querleistenstangen und mindestens eine Querleistenhülse umfasst.If necessary, it can be provided that the crossbar comprises one, two, three or more crossbar rods and at least one crossbar sleeve.

Gemäß dieser Ausführungsform ist es somit möglich, im Wesentlichen eine, zwei oder vier Teilflächen zu bilden. Beispielsweise kann durch Verschiebung des Schlittens 7 in eine Ecke des Rahmens 1 der Vorrichtung eine der Teilflächen 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d maximiert werden.According to this embodiment, it is therefore possible to essentially form one, two or four partial areas. For example, by moving the carriage 7 into a corner of the frame 1 of the device, one of the partial areas 3a, 3b, 3c, 3d can be maximized.

Die Vorrichtung umfasst wiederum Befestigungsvorrichtungen für die Befestigung von Beuteln, Säckeln oder dergleichen. Die Befestigungsvorrichtungen sind als abstehende Dorne 9 ausgebildet. Weiters umfasst die Vorrichtung Stapelungsvorrichtungen, welche als vom Rahmen 1 abstehende Noppen 10 ausgebildet sind.The device in turn includes fastening devices for fastening bags, bags or the like. The fastening devices are designed as protruding mandrels 9. Furthermore, the device includes stacking devices, which are designed as knobs 10 projecting from the frame 1.

In Fig. 3a - 3c ist eine dritte Ausführungsform einer erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung dargestellt, wobei in Fig. 3a die Vorrichtung im Grundriss, in Fig. 3b die Vorrichtung in einer Schnittdarstellung gemäß der Schnittachse A-A, und in Fig. 3c die Vorrichtung in einer Schnittdarstellung gemäß der Schnittachse gemäß der Schnittachse B-B dargestellt ist.In Fig. 3a - 3c a third embodiment of a device according to the invention is shown, wherein in Fig. 3a the device in the floor plan, in Fig. 3b the device in a sectional view along the section axis AA, and in Fig. 3c the device is shown in a sectional view along the cutting axis according to the cutting axis BB.

In der dritten Ausführungsform ist die Leiste 2 an einem Ende verschiebbar am Rahmen 1 und am anderen Ende fix am Schlitten 7 angeordnet. Die Querleiste 5 ist an einem Ende verschiebbar am Rahmen 1 und am anderen Ende fix am Schlitten 7 angeordnet.In the third embodiment, the bar 2 is displaceable at one end on the frame 1 and fixed at the other end on the carriage 7. The cross bar 5 is displaceable at one end on the frame 1 and fixed at the other end on the carriage 7.

Sowohl die Länge der Leiste 2, als auch die Länge der Querleiste 5 ist variabel einstellbar. Die Leiste 2 und die Querleiste 5 umfassen in dieser Ausführungsform mehrere Teile. Die Leiste 2 umfasst eine erste Leistenstange 2a, eine zweite Leistenstange 2b und eine Leistenhülse 2c. Die erste Leistenstange 2a, sowie die zweite Leistenstange 2b sind verschiebbar in der Leistenhülse 2c gelagert. Die Leiste 2 kann im Wesentlichen auf die Länge der Leistenhülse 2c reduziert werden, da die erste Leistenstange 2a und die zweite Leistenstange 2b so verschoben werden können, dass diese, insbesondere vollständig, in der Leistenhülse 2c angeordnet sind. Ferner sind in dieser Ausführungsform an der Leiste 2 Fixierelemente 2d, 2e angeordnet, wodurch die Länge der Leiste 2 fixierbar ist.Both the length of the bar 2 and the length of the cross bar 5 can be variably adjusted. In this embodiment, the bar 2 and the crossbar 5 comprise several parts. The bar 2 comprises a first bar bar 2a, a second bar bar 2b and a bar sleeve 2c. The first strip rod 2a and the second strip rod 2b are slidably mounted in the strip sleeve 2c. The bar 2 can essentially be reduced to the length of the bar sleeve 2c, since the first bar bar 2a and the second bar bar 2b can be moved so that they are arranged, in particular completely, in the bar sleeve 2c. Furthermore, in this embodiment, fixing elements 2d, 2e are arranged on the bar 2, whereby the length of the bar 2 can be fixed.

Die Querleiste 5 umfasst eine erste Querleistenstange 5a, eine zweite Querleistenstange 5b und eine Querleistenhülse 5c. Die erste Querleistenstange 5a, sowie die zweite Querleistenstange 5b sind verschiebbar in der Querleistenhülse 5c gelagert. Die Querleiste 5 kann im Wesentlichen auf die Länge der Querleistenhülse 5c reduziert werden, da die erste Querleistenstange 5a und die zweite Querleistenstange 5b so verschoben werden können, dass diese, insbesondere vollständig, in der Querleistenhülse 5c angeordnet sind. Ferner sind an der Querleiste 5 Fixierelemente 5d, 5e angeordnet, wodurch die Länge der Querleiste 5 fixierbar ist.The crossbar 5 includes a first crossbar rod 5a, a second crossbar rod 5b and a crossbar sleeve 5c. The first crossbar rod 5a and the second crossbar rod 5b are slidably mounted in the crossbar sleeve 5c. The crossbar 5 can essentially be reduced to the length of the crossbar sleeve 5c, since the first crossbar rod 5a and the second crossbar rod 5b can be moved so that they are arranged, in particular completely, in the crossbar sleeve 5c. Furthermore, 5 fixing elements 5d, 5e are arranged on the crossbar, whereby the length of the crossbar 5 can be fixed.

Bei der Verschiebung des Schlittens 7 entlang der ersten Richtung 4 wird die Länge der Querleiste 5, und bei einer Verschiebung des Schlittens 7 in die zweite Richtung 6 die Länge der Leiste 2 variiert.When the carriage 7 is displaced along the first direction 4, the length of the cross bar 5 is varied, and when the carriage 7 is displaced in the second direction 6, the length of the bar 2 is varied.

Dadurch können eine oder zwei Teilflächen 3a, 3b durch die Verschiebung des Schlittens 7, bzw. der Leiste 2 und der Querleiste 5, gebildet werden. Einerseits wird die Bewegung des Schlittens 7 durch die Minimallänge der Leiste 2 und die Minimallänge der Querleiste 5 und andererseits durch den Rahmen 1 begrenzt. Wenn sowohl die Leiste 2 als auch die Querleiste 5 ihre maximale Länge aufweisen, ist die Teilfläche 3a auf ihre Minimalgröße reduziert. Die Teilfläche 3b weist in diesem Fall ihre Maximalgröße auf.As a result, one or two partial surfaces 3a, 3b can be formed by moving the carriage 7 or the bar 2 and the crossbar 5. On the one hand, the movement of the carriage 7 is limited by the minimum length of the bar 2 and the minimum length of the crossbar 5 and, on the other hand, by the frame 1. If both the bar 2 and the cross bar 5 have their maximum length, the partial area 3a is reduced to its minimum size. In this case, the partial area 3b has its maximum size.

In einer nicht dargestellten Ausführungsform können auch mehrere Leisten und Querleisten im Rahmen angeordnet sein, wodurch auch mehr als vier Teilflächen gebildet werden können.In an embodiment not shown, several strips and cross strips can also be arranged in the frame, which means that more than four partial areas can be formed.
