Definitions
- the present invention relates to a frame comprising at least two first, in particular one-piece frame struts and at least two second, in particular one-piece frame struts, the two first and / or the two second frame struts being invariable in length, the first frame struts each having one at their ends the second frame strut and the second frame struts are each connected at their ends to a first frame strut and the first frame struts and the second frame struts are arranged in an assembly position in a frame plane at right angles to one another.
- a frame in which both the two first frame struts and the two second frame struts are unchangeable in length would be implemented, for example, by a conventional picture frame in which the frame struts are firmly connected to one another. With large pictures, however, such a picture frame spans a very large area. It would therefore be conceivable to make the frame struts of the picture frame available to the end user as a kit, so that the end user would have to connect the frame struts to one another at their ends. However, this involves a certain amount of effort for the end user.
- Such a (partial) frame arranged at right angles in the assembly position also has a pavilion frame, for example.
- the end user must connect the frame struts, which consist of several tubes, for example, to one another using corner connectors before the entire pavilion can be set up.
- Kits are also known in the field of insect protection devices in which the end user has to connect the frame struts to one another via corner connectors during assembly.
- the object of the present invention is therefore to eliminate the disadvantages described with reference to the prior art and in particular to provide a frame which is more user-friendly and can be assembled with less effort.
- a frame with the features mentioned at the outset, in which the connections between a first frame strut and a second frame strut each have a swivel joint having at least one axis of rotation, the swivel joints being designed such that in a starting position both the two the first frame struts and the two second frame struts (all) are aligned parallel to one another and the frame can be moved into the assembly position by pivoting the frame struts to one another about the axes of rotation of the swivel joints.
- the basic idea of the invention provides that the frame struts are connected to one another in a hinge-like manner, so that the frame struts preassembled via the swivel joints can be made available to the end user in a compact starting position in which the frame struts arranged at right angles in the assembly position are initially arranged parallel to one another . The end user then only has to fold the frame out of its starting position into the assembly position.
- the invention relates to frames in which the height and / or width of the frame is fixed for the end user.
- the invention relates to such frames in which both the two first frame struts and the two second frame struts are invariable in length.
- the invention relates to such frames in which either the length of the first frame strut or the length of the second frame strut is invariable, while the length of the other two frame struts is changeable.
- a frame strut whose length cannot be changed can, for example, be designed in one piece, with the end user of course not having to shorten the one-piece frame strut.
- the frame strut can be formed, for example, by an internally hollow profile strip, a tube or a solid profile with any cross-section.
- a frame strut whose length cannot be changed can, however, also be constructed in several parts if the several parts can only be connected to one another in such a way that the frame strut has a predetermined length.
- the several parts of the frame strut can be connected to one another via suitable plug-in locking connections.
- first frame struts have the same length and the second frame struts have the same length to form a rectangular frame, have a length that differs from the length of the first frame struts, it can in particular be provided that all frame struts have the same length to form a square frame.
- a frame strut that can be changed in length is designed in several parts and comprises in particular at least one outer profile strip and at least one inner profile strip inserted telescopically with a variable insertion depth into the outer profile strip (s).
- the two first frame struts or the two second frame struts thus each comprise at least one outer profile strip and at least one inner profile strip.
- the end user can easily change the height or width of the frame by telescoping the inner profile strips and outer profile strips with respect to one another.
- the (multi-part) frame struts have the swivel joints at their ends, so that the claimed swivel joints are arranged exclusively between a first frame strut and a second frame strut. In contrast, no swivel joint should be formed between the parts of a multi-part frame strut.
- the frame according to the invention made up of a total of four frame struts, can also be only part of a frame or scaffolding having further frame struts. All that is required is that the two first frame struts according to the invention, which are also arranged parallel to one another in the assembly position, and the two second frame struts, which are also arranged parallel to one another in the assembly position, form a right-angled (partial) frame in the assembly position.
- a latching element is formed at the end of the first frame strut and a latching element complementary to the first latching element is formed at the end of the second frame strut, so that the frame struts interlock with one another in the assembly position.
- the latching element can for example have a particularly hook-shaped projection which, in the assembly position, engages behind a corresponding complementary undercut on the second frame strut. That way you can be given a first backup, by means of which the frame struts are secured against unintentional pivoting back in the assembly position.
- the first frame strut has a stability element which protrudes in the starting position in the direction of the second frame strut and which overlaps with the second frame strut in the assembly position.
- the stability element protruding in particular in one piece from the frame strut is received in particular in a corresponding recess in the second frame strut.
- at least one latching element is formed on the stability element.
- the pivot joint between two frame struts in particular has exactly two axes of rotation, of which one axis of rotation can be formed in or on the first frame strut and the second axis of rotation in or on the second frame strut.
- the axes of rotation of each swivel joint which are in particular aligned parallel to one another, are connected to one another via at least one connecting element.
- the axes of rotation of the swivel joints are oriented orthogonally to the frame plane from corners of the frame which are diagonally opposite in the assembly position.
- a rectangular frame (section) thus has four frame struts, the diagonally opposite profile connectors, i.e. the profile connectors not connected to the same frame strut, having an axis of rotation that are oriented orthogonally to the frame plane spanned by the frame struts in the assembly position.
- the other two corners of the frame also each diagonally opposite in the assembly position
- the axes of rotation of these swivel joints are aligned in particular at an angle of 45 degrees to the direction of extent of the frame struts.
- two pairs of frame struts arranged parallel to one another in the starting position can initially be transferred to an intermediate position by pivoting about the axes of rotation aligned orthogonally to the frame plane, in which the two pairs of parallel frame struts are at right angles to one another are arranged, wherein in the following the frame struts can be transferred from the intermediate position to the assembly position by pivoting two pairs of frame struts arranged at right angles to one another in the intermediate position about the axes of rotation arranged parallel to or in the frame plane.
- the frame struts which are arranged parallel to one another in the starting position, are first brought into a right-angled arrangement to one another by a pivoting movement, in that the frame struts are pivoted about the axes of rotation arranged orthogonally to the frame plane.
- the frame is then further unfolded by pivoting the frame struts about the axes of rotation arranged in the frame plane, the corners already arranged at right angles to one another (and having the axes of rotation oriented orthogonally to the frame plane) which were still arranged adjacent to one another in the intermediate position , can be moved to the diagonally opposite sides of the unfolded frame.
- One of the corners already arranged in the intermediate position between two frame struts aligned at right angles to one another thus describes a kind of circular arc movement from the intermediate position into the assembly position.
- a separate fixing element is provided for each swivel joint, which can be connected to two adjacent frame struts in the assembly position in the area of the swivel joint and thus secures the adjacent frame struts against pivoting.
- a fixing element can be designed as a cover cap that can be fixed in adjacent frame struts.
- the cover caps are therefore particularly flat and connected to both frame struts.
- the cover caps can be fixed to the frame struts in a form-fitting manner, for example by means of a latching connection.
- the cover cap can also be attached to the profile connector in a force-locking manner.
- a respective receiving channel to be formed in adjacent frame struts, the receiving channels of adjacent frame struts being arranged in alignment with one another in the assembly position, with a fixing element being able to be introduced into the aligned receiving channels by a linear movement.
- the elements for forming the swivel joint and for stabilizing / locking the adjacent frame struts are in particular formed in one piece or directly on the frame struts, to simplify production it can also be provided that the frame struts each have a profile strip (hollow or solid) and profile connectors are provided, each having at least a first connecting leg and a second connecting leg, the first connecting leg being connected to a first profile strip of the first frame strut by means of a plug connection and the second connecting leg being connected to a second profile strip of the second frame strut by means of a plug connection , wherein the pivot joint is formed between the first connecting leg and the second connecting leg.
- the frame struts each have a profile strip (hollow or solid) and profile connectors are provided, each having at least a first connecting leg and a second connecting leg, the first connecting leg being connected to a first profile strip of the first frame strut by means of a plug connection and the second connecting leg being connected to a second profile strip of the second frame stru
- the connecting legs of the profile connectors each have, in particular, an insertion section located in the profile strip, which is fixed in the profile strip in a non-positive and / or positive manner.
- each connecting leg has in particular a corner section protruding over the profile strip and thus arranged outside the profile strip, in particular formed in one piece with the insertion section, on or in which the at least one axis of rotation of the swivel joint is formed.
- Each profile connector is thus made in several parts and comprises at least the first connecting leg, the second connecting leg and, if necessary, elements designed as separate components for forming the axis of rotation. It is also possible that the frame struts are inserted into connecting legs of the profile connector.
- the elements for forming the swivel joint can also be formed on one and / or both connecting legs of the profile connectors. This also enables a modular design with which the profile connectors can be produced independently of the frame struts.
- Such profile connectors form in particular the corners of the frame in the assembly position, so that the axes of rotation of the swivel joints of profile connectors that are opposite in the assembly position are aligned orthogonally to the frame plane, the other two profile connectors also having diagonally opposite rotational axes that in the assembly position are aligned parallel to the frame plane or are arranged in the frame plane.
- the locking elements and the complementary locking elements and / or the stability elements and complementary stability elements can also be formed on the connecting legs of the profile connector.
- the elements for fixing the frame in its assembly position can also be designed to be attached to the profile connector.
- the first connecting leg has a first receiving channel and the second connecting leg has a second receiving channel, the first receiving channel and the second receiving channel being arranged in alignment with one another in the assembly position, a separate fixing element being provided which in the assembly position in the first Receiving channel and can be introduced into the second receiving channel by a linear movement, so that the first connecting leg and the second connecting leg are secured against relative movement.
- the fixing element can in particular be designed as a suspension element with which the frame forming part of an insect protection device can be attached to a frame of a window.
- the frame is intended for use as an insect protection device for a window, in which case the frame consists in particular of two lateral vertical frame struts and a lower and an upper horizontal frame strut, the profile connectors being designed as corner connectors with exactly two connecting legs that can be pivoted to one another are.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Rahmen, umfassend mindestens zwei erste, insbesondere einteilige Rahmenstreben und mindestens zwei zweite, insbesondere einteilige Rahmenstreben, wobei die zwei ersten und/oder die zwei zweiten Rahmenstreben in ihrer Länge unveränderbar sind, die ersten Rahmenstreben an ihren Enden jeweils mit einer zweiten Rahmenstrebe und die zweiten Rahmenstreben an ihren Enden jeweils mit einer ersten Rahmenstrebe verbunden sind und die ersten Rahmenstreben und die zweiten Rahmenstreben in einer Montagestellung in einer Rahmenebene in einem rechten Winkel zueinander angeordnet sind.The present invention relates to a frame comprising at least two first, in particular one-piece frame struts and at least two second, in particular one-piece frame struts, the two first and / or the two second frame struts being invariable in length, the first frame struts each having one at their ends the second frame strut and the second frame struts are each connected at their ends to a first frame strut and the first frame struts and the second frame struts are arranged in an assembly position in a frame plane at right angles to one another.
Ein Rahmen, bei dem sowohl die zwei ersten Rahmenstreben als auch die zwei zweiten Rahmenstreben in ihrer Länge unveränderbar sind, wäre beispielsweise durch einen üblichen Bilderrahmen realisiert, bei dem die Rahmenstreben fest miteinander verbunden sind. Bei großen Bildern spannt ein solcher Bilderrahmen allerdings eine sehr große Fläche auf. Es wäre daher denkbar, die Rahmenstreben des Bilderrahmens als Bausatz dem Endanwender zur Verfügung zu stellen, so dass der Endanwender die Rahmenstreben an ihren Enden miteinander verbinden müsste. Dies ist allerdings mit einem gewissen Aufwand für den Endanwender verbunden.A frame in which both the two first frame struts and the two second frame struts are unchangeable in length would be implemented, for example, by a conventional picture frame in which the frame struts are firmly connected to one another. With large pictures, however, such a picture frame spans a very large area. It would therefore be conceivable to make the frame struts of the picture frame available to the end user as a kit, so that the end user would have to connect the frame struts to one another at their ends. However, this involves a certain amount of effort for the end user.
Einen solchen in der Montagestellung rechtwinklig angeordneten (Teil-)Rahmen weist beispielsweise auch ein Pavillongerüst auf. Der Endanwender muss hierbei die beispielsweise aus mehreren Rohren bestehenden Rahmenstreben jeweils über Eckverbinder miteinander verbinden, bevor der gesamte Pavillon aufgebaut werden kann.Such a (partial) frame arranged at right angles in the assembly position also has a pavilion frame, for example. The end user must connect the frame struts, which consist of several tubes, for example, to one another using corner connectors before the entire pavilion can be set up.
Auch im Bereich von Insektenschutzvorrichtungen sind Bausätze bekannt, bei denen der Endbenutzer während der Montage die Rahmenstreben über Eckverbinder miteinander verbinden muss.Kits are also known in the field of insect protection devices in which the end user has to connect the frame struts to one another via corner connectors during assembly.
Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung ist es daher, die mit Bezug zum Stand der Technik geschilderten Nachteile zu beseitigen und insbesondere einen Rahmen anzugeben, der anwenderfreundlicher ist und mit einem geringeren Aufwand zu montieren ist.The object of the present invention is therefore to eliminate the disadvantages described with reference to the prior art and in particular to provide a frame which is more user-friendly and can be assembled with less effort.
Gelöst wird die Aufgabe durch einen Rahmen mit den Merkmalen des unabhängigen Anspruchs. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildungen des Rahmens sind in den abhängigen Ansprüchen und in der Beschreibung angegeben, wobei einzelne Merkmale der vorteilhaften Weiterbildungen in technisch sinnvoller Weise miteinander kombinierbar sind.The object is achieved by a framework with the features of the independent claim. Advantageous further developments of the frame are specified in the dependent claims and in the description, with individual features of the advantageous further developments being able to be combined with one another in a technically meaningful way.
Gelöst wird die Aufgabe insbesondere durch einen Rahmen mit den eingangs genannten Merkmalen, bei dem die Verbindungen zwischen jeweils einer ersten Rahmenstrebe und einer zweiten Rahmenstrebe jeweils ein mindestens eine Drehachse aufweisendes Drehgelenk aufweisen, wobei die Drehgelenke derart ausgebildet sind, dass in einer Ausgangsstellung sowohl die zwei ersten Rahmenstreben als auch die zwei zweiten Rahmenstreben (alle) parallel zueinander ausgerichtet sind und der Rahmen durch Verschwenken der Rahmenstreben zueinander um die Drehachsen der Drehgelenke in die Montagestellung überführbar ist.The object is achieved in particular by a frame with the features mentioned at the outset, in which the connections between a first frame strut and a second frame strut each have a swivel joint having at least one axis of rotation, the swivel joints being designed such that in a starting position both the two the first frame struts and the two second frame struts (all) are aligned parallel to one another and the frame can be moved into the assembly position by pivoting the frame struts to one another about the axes of rotation of the swivel joints.
Die Erfindung sieht in ihrem Grundgedanken also vor, dass die Rahmenstreben scharnierartig miteinander verbunden sind, so dass die über die Drehgelenke vormontierten Rahmenstreben in einer kompakten Ausgangsstellung, in der die in der Montagestellung rechtwinklig angeordneten Rahmenstreben zunächst parallel zueinander angeordnet sind, dem Endanwender bereitgestellt werden können. Der Endanwender muss dann lediglich den Rahmen aus seiner Ausgangsstellung in die Montagestellung falten.The basic idea of the invention provides that the frame struts are connected to one another in a hinge-like manner, so that the frame struts preassembled via the swivel joints can be made available to the end user in a compact starting position in which the frame struts arranged at right angles in the assembly position are initially arranged parallel to one another . The end user then only has to fold the frame out of its starting position into the assembly position.
Die Erfindung betrifft solche Rahmen, bei der dem Endanwender die Höhe und/oder die Breite des Rahmens fest vorgegeben ist. Insbesondere betrifft die Erfindung solche Rahmen, bei dem sowohl die zwei ersten Rahmenstreben als auch die zwei zweiten Rahmenstreben in ihrer Länge unveränderbar sind. Alternativ betrifft die Erfindung solche Rahmen, bei denen entweder die Länge der ersten Rahmenstrebe oder die Länge der zweiten Rahmenstrebe unveränderbar ist, während die Länge der jeweils anderen zwei Rahmenstreben veränderbar ist.The invention relates to frames in which the height and / or width of the frame is fixed for the end user. In particular, the invention relates to such frames in which both the two first frame struts and the two second frame struts are invariable in length. Alternatively, the invention relates to such frames in which either the length of the first frame strut or the length of the second frame strut is invariable, while the length of the other two frame struts is changeable.
Eine in ihrer Länge unveränderbare Rahmenstrebe kann beispielsweise einteilig ausgebildet sein, wobei es dem Endanwender natürlich ungenommen ist, die einteilige Rahmenstrebe zu kürzen. Die Rahmenstrebe kann beispielsweise durch eine innen hohle Profilleiste, ein Rohr oder ein Vollprofil mit beliebigen Querschnitt gebildet sein. Eine in ihre Länge nicht veränderbare Rahmenstrebe kann aber auch mehrteilig ausgebildet sein, wenn die mehreren Teile nur so miteinander verbunden werden können, dass die Rahmenstrebe eine vorgegebene Länge aufweist. Beispielsweise können die mehreren Teile der Rahmenstrebe über geeignete Steck-Rastverbindungen miteinander verbindbar sein. Sofern zur Ausbildung eines rechteckigen Rahmens die ersten Rahmenstreben die gleich Länge aufweisen und die zweiten Rahmenstrebe die gleiche, sich von der Länge der ersten Rahmenstreben unterscheidende Länge aufweisen, kann insbesondere vorgesehen sein, dass zur Ausbildung eines quadratischen Rahmens alle Rahmenstreben die gleiche Länge aufweisen.A frame strut whose length cannot be changed can, for example, be designed in one piece, with the end user of course not having to shorten the one-piece frame strut. The frame strut can be formed, for example, by an internally hollow profile strip, a tube or a solid profile with any cross-section. A frame strut whose length cannot be changed can, however, also be constructed in several parts if the several parts can only be connected to one another in such a way that the frame strut has a predetermined length. For example, the several parts of the frame strut can be connected to one another via suitable plug-in locking connections. If the first frame struts have the same length and the second frame struts have the same length to form a rectangular frame, have a length that differs from the length of the first frame struts, it can in particular be provided that all frame struts have the same length to form a square frame.
Eine in ihrer Länge veränderbare Rahmenstrebe ist mehrteilig ausgebildet und umfasst insbesondere mindestens eine Außenprofilleiste und mindestens eine teleskopierbar mit einer veränderbaren Einschubtiefe in die Außenprofilleiste(n) eingeschobene Innenprofilleiste. Die zwei ersten Rahmenstreben oder die zwei zweiten Rahmenstreben umfassen also jeweils mindestens eine Außenprofilleiste und mindestens eine Innenprofilleiste. In der Montagestellung kann der Endanwender durch Teleskopieren der Innenprofilleisten und Außenprofilleisten zueinander einfach die Höhe oder die Breite des Rahmens ändern.A frame strut that can be changed in length is designed in several parts and comprises in particular at least one outer profile strip and at least one inner profile strip inserted telescopically with a variable insertion depth into the outer profile strip (s). The two first frame struts or the two second frame struts thus each comprise at least one outer profile strip and at least one inner profile strip. In the assembly position, the end user can easily change the height or width of the frame by telescoping the inner profile strips and outer profile strips with respect to one another.
Die (mehrteiligen) Rahmenstreben weisen an ihren Enden die Drehgelenke auf, so dass die beanspruchten Drehgelenke ausschließlich zwischen einer ersten Rahmenstrebe und einer zweiten Rahmenstrebe angeordnet sind. Zwischen den Teilen einer mehrteiligen Rahmenstrebe soll hingegen kein Drehgelenk ausgebildet sein.The (multi-part) frame struts have the swivel joints at their ends, so that the claimed swivel joints are arranged exclusively between a first frame strut and a second frame strut. In contrast, no swivel joint should be formed between the parts of a multi-part frame strut.
Im Folgenden kann der Endanwender dann den in der Höhe oder Breite geänderten Rahmen mit der entsprechenden Einschubtiefe zwischen der Innenprofilleiste und der Außenprofilleiste durch geeignete Mittel fixieren. Die Mittel zum Fixieren der Einschubtiefe können zumindest eines der folgenden Elemente umfassen:
- Schraube, mit der eine Innenprofilleiste und eine Außenprofilleiste zueinander fixiert werden,
- ein sich über die gesamte Länge einer Rahmenstrebe erstreckender bevorzugt auch doppelseitiger Klebestreifen, wobei bevorzugt bei einem einseitigen Klebestreifen an dessen der Klebeseite abgewandten Oberseite eine Vielzahl (mehr als 10 oder mehr als 100) T-förmiger Rasthaken zum Festlegen eines Insektenschutznetzes ausgebildet sind,
- eine an der Innenprofilleiste anbringbare Adapterprofilleiste, die auf einen sich entlang der Innenprofilleiste erstreckenden Vorsprung oder in eine sich entlang der Innenprofilleiste erstreckende Nut aufbeziehungsweise eingesteckt wird, wobei ein Außenprofil beziehungsweise ein Innenprofil der Adapterprofilleiste mit einem entsprechenden Profil eines Vorsprungs beziehungsweise einer Nut der Außenprofilleiste fluchtet, wobei bevorzugt eine sich über die gesamte Rahmenstrebe erstreckende Klemmleiste auf die Adapterprofilleiste (im Bereich der Innenprofilleiste) und auf den Vorsprung (im Bereich der Außenprofilleiste) aufgesteckt werden kann.
- Screw with which an inner profile strip and an outer profile strip are fixed to one another,
- a preferably also double-sided adhesive strip extending over the entire length of a frame strut, preferably with a single-sided adhesive strip on its side facing away from the adhesive A large number (more than 10 or more than 100) of T-shaped snap-in hooks are formed on the upper side for fixing an insect protection net,
- an adapter profile strip which can be attached to the inner profile strip and which is inserted or inserted onto a projection extending along the inner profile strip or into a groove extending along the inner profile strip, an outer profile or an inner profile of the adapter profile strip being aligned with a corresponding profile of a projection or a groove of the outer profile strip, wherein a terminal strip extending over the entire frame strut can be plugged onto the adapter profile strip (in the area of the inner profile strip) and on the projection (in the area of the outer profile strip).
Der erfindungsgemäße Rahmen aus insgesamt vier Rahmenstreben kann auch nur Teil eines weitere Rahmenstreben aufweisenden Rahmens oder Gerüsts sein. Erforderlich ist lediglich, dass die erfindungsgemäßen zwei ersten Rahmenstreben, die auch in der Montagestellung parallel zueinander angeordnet sind, und die zwei zweiten Rahmenstreben, die ebenfalls in der Montagestellung parallel zueinander angeordnet sind, in der Montagestellung einen rechtwinkligen (Teil-)Rahmen ausbilden.The frame according to the invention, made up of a total of four frame struts, can also be only part of a frame or scaffolding having further frame struts. All that is required is that the two first frame struts according to the invention, which are also arranged parallel to one another in the assembly position, and the two second frame struts, which are also arranged parallel to one another in the assembly position, form a right-angled (partial) frame in the assembly position.
Es ist insbesondere vorgesehen, dass an dem Ende der ersten Rahmenstrebe ein Rastelement und an dem Ende der zweiten Rahmenstrebe ein zu dem ersten Rastelement komplementäres Rastelement ausgebildet ist, so dass die Rahmenstreben in der Montagestellung miteinander verrasten. Das Rastelement kann beispielsweise einen insbesondere hakenförmigen Vorsprung aufweisen, der in der Montagestellung einen entsprechenden komplementären Hinterschnitt an der zweiten Rahmenstrebe hintergreift. Auf diese Weise kann eine erste Sicherung gegeben sein, mittels der die Rahmenstreben in der Montagestellung gegen ein unbeabsichtigtes Zurückschwenken gesichert sind.In particular, it is provided that a latching element is formed at the end of the first frame strut and a latching element complementary to the first latching element is formed at the end of the second frame strut, so that the frame struts interlock with one another in the assembly position. The latching element can for example have a particularly hook-shaped projection which, in the assembly position, engages behind a corresponding complementary undercut on the second frame strut. That way you can be given a first backup, by means of which the frame struts are secured against unintentional pivoting back in the assembly position.
Damit die Rahmenstreben in der Montagestellung dem Rahmen eine hohe Stabilität verleihen, kann vorgesehen sein, dass die erste Rahmenstrebe ein in der Ausgangsstellung in Richtung der zweiten Rahmenstrebe vorspringendes Stabilitätselement aufweist, welches in der Montagestellung mit der zweiten Rahmenstrebe überlappt. Das insbesondere einteilig an der Rahmenstrebe vorspringende Stabilitätselement wird insbesondere in eine korrespondierende Ausnehmung der zweiten Rahmenstrebe aufgenommen. Es kann hierbei insbesondere vorgesehen sein, dass zumindest ein Rastelement an dem Stabilitätselement ausgebildet ist.So that the frame struts give the frame a high level of stability in the assembly position, it can be provided that the first frame strut has a stability element which protrudes in the starting position in the direction of the second frame strut and which overlaps with the second frame strut in the assembly position. The stability element protruding in particular in one piece from the frame strut is received in particular in a corresponding recess in the second frame strut. It can be provided here in particular that at least one latching element is formed on the stability element.
Das Drehgelenk zwischen zwei Rahmenstreben weist insbesondere genau zwei Drehachsen auf, von denen die eine Drehachse in oder an der ersten Rahmenstrebe und die zweite Drehachse in oder an der zweiten Rahmenstrebe ausgebildet sein kann. Die insbesondere parallel zueinander ausgerichteten Drehachsen jedes Drehgelenks sind dabei über mindestens ein Verbindungselement miteinander verbunden.The pivot joint between two frame struts in particular has exactly two axes of rotation, of which one axis of rotation can be formed in or on the first frame strut and the second axis of rotation in or on the second frame strut. The axes of rotation of each swivel joint, which are in particular aligned parallel to one another, are connected to one another via at least one connecting element.
In einer Ausführungsform sind die Drehachsen der Drehgelenke von in der Montagestellung diagonal gegenüberliegenden Ecken des Rahmens orthogonal zu der Rahmenebene ausgerichtet. Ein solcher rechteckiger Rahmen(abschnitt) weist also vier Rahmenstreben auf, wobei die diagonal gegenüberliegenden, also die nicht mit derselben Rahmenstrebe verbundenen Profilverbinder eine Drehachse aufweisen, die orthogonal zu der von den Rahmenstreben in der Montagestellung aufgespannten Rahmenebene ausgerichtet sind.In one embodiment, the axes of rotation of the swivel joints are oriented orthogonally to the frame plane from corners of the frame which are diagonally opposite in the assembly position. Such a rectangular frame (section) thus has four frame struts, the diagonally opposite profile connectors, i.e. the profile connectors not connected to the same frame strut, having an axis of rotation that are oriented orthogonally to the frame plane spanned by the frame struts in the assembly position.
In diesem Zusammenhang ist vorgesehen, dass die anderen zwei, auch jeweils in der Montagestellung diagonal gegenüberliegenden Ecken des Rahmens Drehachsen aufweisen, die in der Montagestellung parallel zu der Rahmenebene ausgerichtet sind oder in der Rahmenebene angeordnet sind. Die Drehachsen dieser Drehgelenke sind dabei insbesondere in einem Winkel von 45 Grad zu der Erstreckungsrichtung der Rahmenstreben ausgerichtet.In this context, it is provided that the other two corners of the frame, also each diagonally opposite in the assembly position Have axes of rotation which are aligned parallel to the frame plane in the assembly position or are arranged in the frame plane. The axes of rotation of these swivel joints are aligned in particular at an angle of 45 degrees to the direction of extent of the frame struts.
Mit einer solchen Anordnung ist es möglich, dass jeweils zwei in der Ausgangsstellung parallel zueinander angeordnete Paare von Rahmenstreben zunächst durch Verschwenken um die orthogonal zu der Rahmenebene ausgerichteten Drehachsen in eine Zwischenstellung überführbar sind, in der die zwei Paare von parallelen Rahmenstreben in einem rechten Winkel zueinander angeordnet sind, wobei im Folgenden die Rahmenstreben aus der Zwischenstellung durch Verschwenken von zwei, in der Zwischenstellung rechtwinklig zueinander angeordneten Paaren von Rahmenstreben um die parallel zu oder in der Rahmenebene angeordneten Drehachsen in die Montagestellung überführbar sind.With such an arrangement it is possible that two pairs of frame struts arranged parallel to one another in the starting position can initially be transferred to an intermediate position by pivoting about the axes of rotation aligned orthogonally to the frame plane, in which the two pairs of parallel frame struts are at right angles to one another are arranged, wherein in the following the frame struts can be transferred from the intermediate position to the assembly position by pivoting two pairs of frame struts arranged at right angles to one another in the intermediate position about the axes of rotation arranged parallel to or in the frame plane.
Anders ausgedrückt werden also zunächst die in der Ausgangsstellung parallel zueinander angeordneten Rahmenstreben durch eine Schwenkbewegung in eine rechtwinklige Anordnung zueinander gebracht, indem die Rahmenstreben um die orthogonal zu der Rahmenebene angeordneten Drehachsen verschwenkt werden. Im Folgenden wird der Rahmen dann weiter entfaltet, indem die Rahmenstreben um die in der Rahmenebene angeordneten Drehachsen verschwenkt werden, wobei die bereits rechtwinklig zueinander angeordneten (und die orthogonal zu der Rahmenebene ausgerichteten Drehachsen aufweisenden) Ecken, welche in der Zwischenstellung noch benachbart zueinander angeordnet waren, auf die diagonal gegenüberliegenden Seiten des entfalteten Rahmens bewegt werden. Eine der bereits in der Zwischenstellung zwischen zwei rechtwinklig zueinander ausgerichteten Rahmenstreben angeordnete Ecke beschreibt also eine Art Kreisbogenbewegung von der Zwischenstellung in die Montagestellung.In other words, the frame struts, which are arranged parallel to one another in the starting position, are first brought into a right-angled arrangement to one another by a pivoting movement, in that the frame struts are pivoted about the axes of rotation arranged orthogonally to the frame plane. In the following, the frame is then further unfolded by pivoting the frame struts about the axes of rotation arranged in the frame plane, the corners already arranged at right angles to one another (and having the axes of rotation oriented orthogonally to the frame plane) which were still arranged adjacent to one another in the intermediate position , can be moved to the diagonally opposite sides of the unfolded frame. One of the corners already arranged in the intermediate position between two frame struts aligned at right angles to one another thus describes a kind of circular arc movement from the intermediate position into the assembly position.
Es kann zudem vorgesehen sein, dass ein separates Fixierungselement für jedes Drehgelenk vorgesehen ist, das im Bereich des Drehgelenks in der Montagestellung mit zwei benachbarten Rahmenstreben verbindbar ist und so die benachbarten Rahmenstreben gegen ein Verschwenken sichert. Beispielsweise kann ein solches Fixierungselement als Abdeckkappe ausgebildet sein, die in benachbarte Rahmenstreben festgelegt werden kann. Die Abdeckkappen sind also insbesondere flächig ausgebildet und mit beiden Rahmenstreben verbunden. Hierzu können die Abdeckkappen beispielsweise mittels einer Rastverbindung formschlüssig an den Rahmenstreben festlegbar sein. Die Abdecckappe kann auch kraftschlüssig an dem Profilverbinder befestigbar sein. Alternativ kann vorgesehen sein, dass in benachbarten Rahmenstreben jeweils ein Aufnahmekanal ausgebildet ist, wobei die Aufnahmekanäle von benachbarten Rahmenstreben in der Montagestellung fluchtend zueinander angeordnet sind, wobei ein Fixierungselement in die fluchtend zueinander angeordneten Aufnahmekanäle durch eine lineare Bewegung einbringbar ist.It can also be provided that a separate fixing element is provided for each swivel joint, which can be connected to two adjacent frame struts in the assembly position in the area of the swivel joint and thus secures the adjacent frame struts against pivoting. For example, such a fixing element can be designed as a cover cap that can be fixed in adjacent frame struts. The cover caps are therefore particularly flat and connected to both frame struts. For this purpose, the cover caps can be fixed to the frame struts in a form-fitting manner, for example by means of a latching connection. The cover cap can also be attached to the profile connector in a force-locking manner. Alternatively, provision can be made for a respective receiving channel to be formed in adjacent frame struts, the receiving channels of adjacent frame struts being arranged in alignment with one another in the assembly position, with a fixing element being able to be introduced into the aligned receiving channels by a linear movement.
Soweit nach der vorstehenden Beschreibung die Elemente zur Ausbildung des Drehgelenks und zur Stabilisierung/Verrastung der benachbarten Rahmenstreben insbesondere einteilig oder unmittelbar an den Rahmenstreben ausgebildet sind, kann zur Vereinfachung der Herstellung auch vorgesehen sein, dass die Rahmenstreben jeweils eine Profilleiste (hohl oder voll ausgebildet) aufweisen und Profilverbinder vorgesehen sind, die jeweils mindestens einen ersten Verbindungsschenkel und einen zweiten Verbindungsschenkel aufweisen, wobei der erste Verbindungsschenkel mittels einer Steckverbindung mit einer ersten Profilleiste der ersten Rahmenstrebe verbunden ist und der zweite Verbindungsschenkel mittels einer Steckverbindung mit einer zweiten Profilleiste der zweiten Rahmenstrebe verbunden ist, wobei das Drehgelenk zwischen dem ersten Verbindungsschenkel und dem zweiten Verbindungsschenkel ausgebildet ist.Insofar as, according to the above description, the elements for forming the swivel joint and for stabilizing / locking the adjacent frame struts are in particular formed in one piece or directly on the frame struts, to simplify production it can also be provided that the frame struts each have a profile strip (hollow or solid) and profile connectors are provided, each having at least a first connecting leg and a second connecting leg, the first connecting leg being connected to a first profile strip of the first frame strut by means of a plug connection and the second connecting leg being connected to a second profile strip of the second frame strut by means of a plug connection , wherein the pivot joint is formed between the first connecting leg and the second connecting leg.
Die Verbindungsschenkel der Profilverbinder weisen jeweils insbesondere einen sich in der Profilleiste befindlichen Einsteckabschnitt auf, der kraft- und/oder formschlüssig in der Profilleiste festgelegt ist. Zudem weist jeder Verbindungsschenkel insbesondere einen über die Profilleiste überstehenden und somit außerhalb der Profilleiste angeordneten insbesondere mit dem Einsteckabschnitt einteilig ausgebildeten Eckabschnitt auf, an oder in dem die wenigstens eine Drehachse des Drehgelenkes ausgebildet ist. Jeder Profilverbinder ist also mehrteilig ausgebildet und umfasst zumindest den ersten Verbindungsschenkel, den zweiten Verbindungsschenkel und gegebenenfalls als gesonderte Bauteile ausgebildete Elemente zur Ausbildung der Drehachse. Es ist auch möglich, dass die Rahmenstreben in Verbindungsschenkel der Profilverbinder eingesteckt sind.The connecting legs of the profile connectors each have, in particular, an insertion section located in the profile strip, which is fixed in the profile strip in a non-positive and / or positive manner. In addition, each connecting leg has in particular a corner section protruding over the profile strip and thus arranged outside the profile strip, in particular formed in one piece with the insertion section, on or in which the at least one axis of rotation of the swivel joint is formed. Each profile connector is thus made in several parts and comprises at least the first connecting leg, the second connecting leg and, if necessary, elements designed as separate components for forming the axis of rotation. It is also possible that the frame struts are inserted into connecting legs of the profile connector.
Somit können aber auch die Elemente zur Ausbildung des Drehgelenks an einem und/oder beiden Verbindungsschenkeln der Profilverbinder ausgebildet sein. Dies ermöglicht auch eine modulare Bauweise, mit der die Profilverbinder unabhängig von den Rahmenstreben hergestellt werden können.Thus, however, the elements for forming the swivel joint can also be formed on one and / or both connecting legs of the profile connectors. This also enables a modular design with which the profile connectors can be produced independently of the frame struts.
Solche Profilverbinder bilden insbesondere die Ecken des in der Montagestellung befindlichen Rahmens aus, so dass die Drehachsen der Drehgelenke von in der Montagestellung gegenüberliegenden Profilverbindern orthogonal zu der Rahmenebene ausgerichtet sind, wobei die anderen zwei, auch jeweils diagonal gegenüberliegenden Profilverbinder Drehachsen aufweisen, die in der Montagestellung parallel zu der Rahmenebene ausgerichtet sind oder in der Rahmenebene angeordnet sind.Such profile connectors form in particular the corners of the frame in the assembly position, so that the axes of rotation of the swivel joints of profile connectors that are opposite in the assembly position are aligned orthogonally to the frame plane, the other two profile connectors also having diagonally opposite rotational axes that in the assembly position are aligned parallel to the frame plane or are arranged in the frame plane.
Es können aber auch die Rastelemente sowie die komplementären Rastelemente und/oder die Stabilitätselemente und komplementären Stabilitätselemente an den Verbindungsschenkeln des Profilverbinders ausgebildet sein. Zudem können die Elemente zum Fixieren des Rahmens in seiner Montagestellung (Fixierungselemente) auch zum Anbringen an den Profilverbinder ausgebildet sein.However, the locking elements and the complementary locking elements and / or the stability elements and complementary stability elements can also be formed on the connecting legs of the profile connector. In addition, the elements for fixing the frame in its assembly position (fixing elements) can also be designed to be attached to the profile connector.
In diesem Zusammenhang weist insbesondere der erste Verbindungsschenkel einen ersten Aufnahmekanal und der zweite Verbindungsschenkel einen zweiten Aufnahmekanal auf, wobei der erste Aufnahmekanal und der zweite Aufnahmekanal in der Montagestellung fluchtend zueinander angeordnet sind, wobei ein separates Fixierungselement vorgesehen ist, welches in der Montagestellung in den ersten Aufnahmekanal und in den zweiten Aufnahmekanal durch eine lineare Bewegung einbringbar ist, so dass der erste Verbindungsschenkel und der zweite Verbindungsschenkel gegen eine Relativbewegung gesichert sind. Das Fixierungselement kann insbesondere als Einhängeelement ausgebildet sein, mit dem der einen Teil einer Insektenschutzvorrichtung bildende Rahmen an einem Blendrahmen eines Fensters anbringbar ist.In this context, in particular, the first connecting leg has a first receiving channel and the second connecting leg has a second receiving channel, the first receiving channel and the second receiving channel being arranged in alignment with one another in the assembly position, a separate fixing element being provided which in the assembly position in the first Receiving channel and can be introduced into the second receiving channel by a linear movement, so that the first connecting leg and the second connecting leg are secured against relative movement. The fixing element can in particular be designed as a suspension element with which the frame forming part of an insect protection device can be attached to a frame of a window.
In einer Ausführungsform ist der Rahmen zum Einsatz als Insektenschutzvorrichtung für ein Fenster vorgesehen, in welchem Fall der Rahmen insbesondere aus zwei seitlichen vertikalen Rahmenstreben sowie aus einer unteren und einer oberen horizontalen Rahmenstrebe besteht, wobei die Profilverbinder als Eckverbinder mit jeweils genau zwei zueinander schwenkbaren Verbindungsschenkeln ausgebildet sind. Ein solcher Rahmen kann mittels der bereits oben beschriebenen Einhängeelemente an einem Fensterrahmen befestigt werden.In one embodiment, the frame is intended for use as an insect protection device for a window, in which case the frame consists in particular of two lateral vertical frame struts and a lower and an upper horizontal frame strut, the profile connectors being designed as corner connectors with exactly two connecting legs that can be pivoted to one another are. Such a frame can be attached to a window frame by means of the suspension elements already described above.
Der vorgeschlagene Rahmen kann aber auch für eine einer Türöffnung zugeordneten Insektenschutzvorrichtung vorgesehen sein, in welchem Fall der Rahmen beispielsweise mittels Scharnieren an einem Türrahmen befestigbar ist. In diesem Fall besteht der Rahmen insbesondere aus vier seitlichen Rahmenstreben sowie aus einer unteren, einer mittleren und einer oberen horizontalen Rahmenstrebe, wobei die mittlere Rahmenstrebe jeweils an beiden Enden mittels eines als Mittelverbinder ausgebildeten Profilverbinders mit zwei vertikalen Rahmenstreben verbunden ist, wobei der Mittelverbinder jeweils drei Verbindungsschenkel aufweist.The proposed frame can, however, also be provided for an insect protection device assigned to a door opening, in which case the frame can be fastened to a door frame, for example by means of hinges. In this case, the frame consists in particular of four side frame struts as well as a lower, a middle and an upper horizontal frame strut, the middle frame strut being connected to two vertical frame struts at both ends by means of a profile connector designed as a central connector, the central connector each having three connecting legs.
Der Rahmen kann zum Aufspannen eines flächigen Insektenschutznetzes verwendet werden. Der Rahmen kann auch als Rahmen für ein plissiertes Insektenschutznetz verwendet werden. Hierzu weisen zumindest die vertikalen Rahmenstreben zur Aufnahme eines Plissees eine entlang ihrer Erstreckungsrichtung durchgehende, einem Rahmeninneren zugewandte Öffnung auf. Somit kann ein Rand des Plissees innerhalb der vertikalen Rahmenstreben angeordnet werden, wobei sich das Plissee bis zu der gegenüberliegenden vertikalen Rahmenstrebe und in diese hinein erstreckt.The frame can be used to stretch a flat insect screen. The frame can also be used as a frame for a pleated insect screen. For this purpose, at least the vertical frame struts for receiving a pleated blind have an opening which is continuous along their direction of extension and faces a frame interior. Thus, an edge of the pleated blind can be arranged within the vertical frame struts, the pleated blind extending up to and into the opposite vertical frame strut.
Es wird auch eine Insektenschutzvorrichtung vorgeschlagen, die einen erfindungsgemäßen Rahmen und ein an oder in dem Rahmen im Falle eines Plissees beweglich befestigtes Insektenschutznetz umfasst.An insect protection device is also proposed which comprises a frame according to the invention and an insect protection net movably fastened on or in the frame in the case of a pleated blind.
Zudem kann der vorgeschlagene Rahmen als Bilderrahmen dienen, wobei insbesondere eine Rückwand auf der Rückseite der Rahmenstreben befestigbar ist.In addition, the proposed frame can serve as a picture frame, with a rear wall in particular being attachable to the rear of the frame struts.
Der erfindungsgemäße Rahmen kann aber auch Teil eines Pavillongerüsts sein, bei dem der Rahmen einen rechteckig ausgebildeten Teil des Pavillongerüsts bildet. Insbesondere bildet der erfindungsgemäße Rahmen den im Montagezustand horizontal ausgerichteten Teil des Rahmens, an den sich nach unten die Füße des Pavillongerüsts anschließen, wobei oberhalb des Teilrahmens eine Struktur zur Ausbildung eines Dachgerüstes angeordnet ist. Hierbei können an den Enden der ersten und zweiten Rahmenstrebe dritte Rahmenstreben zur Ausbildung eines Dachgerüsts und vierte Rahmenstreben zur Ausbildung von Füßen gelenkig angebracht sein, so dass auch diese Rahmenstreben im Ausgangszustand parallel zu den anderen Rahmenstreben anordenbar sind. In diesem Zusammenhang ist insbesondere bevorzugt, wenn an den Profilverbindern entsprechende weitere Verbindungsschenkel ausgebildet sind, die mit den dritten und/oder vierten Rahmenstreben verbunden sind. Somit wären dann die dritten und vierten Verbindungsschenkel des Profilverbinders gelenkig zu dem ersten und zweiten Verbindungsschenkel ausgebildet. Die dritten und/oder vierten Rahmenstreben sind dabei bevorzugt so gelenkig mit den ersten und zweiten Rahmenstreben verbunden, dass auch die dritten und/oder vierten Rahmenstreben in der Ausgangsstellung parallel zu den ersten und zweiten Rahmenstreben angeordnet werden können.The frame according to the invention can, however, also be part of a pavilion framework, in which the frame forms a rectangular part of the pavilion framework. In particular, the frame according to the invention forms the part of the frame which is horizontally aligned in the assembled state and to which the feet of the pavilion framework adjoin at the bottom, a structure for forming a roof framework being arranged above the partial frame. Here, third frame struts can be at the ends of the first and second frame struts to form a roof structure and fourth frame struts for the formation of feet can be attached in an articulated manner, so that these frame struts can also be arranged in the initial state parallel to the other frame struts. In this context, it is particularly preferred if corresponding further connecting legs are formed on the profile connectors, which are connected to the third and / or fourth frame struts. The third and fourth connecting legs of the profile connector would then be designed to be articulated to the first and second connecting legs. The third and / or fourth frame struts are preferably connected to the first and second frame struts in such an articulated manner that the third and / or fourth frame struts can also be arranged parallel to the first and second frame struts in the starting position.
In einem weiteren Anwendungsfall kann der erfindungsgemäße Rahmen Bestandteil eines Schilds (Display) sein, wobei der Rahmen beispielsweise ein mit einer Information versehenes Textil aufspannt. Es können aber auch andere Informationen (Werbung, Anweisungen, etc) tragende Elemente von dem Rahmen getragen werden.In a further application, the frame according to the invention can be part of a sign (display), the frame, for example, spanning a textile provided with information. However, other information (advertising, instructions, etc.) carrying elements can also be carried by the frame.
