Description

Anhänger mit verriegelbarem BügelTrailer with lockable bracket
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft einen Anhänger mit verriegelbarem Bügel nach dem Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1.The present invention relates to a trailer with a lockable bracket according to the preamble of claim 1.
Es sind eine Vielzahl von derartigen Anhängern bekannt, wel~ ehe auch als Padlock bezeichnet werden. Insbesondere bei derartigen Anhängern, bei welchen der Bügel nach dem Verriegeln nicht mehr zerstörungsfrei gelöst werden kann, besteht das Problem, Manipulationsversuche am Verschluss einerseits möglichst zu verhindern und andererseits sichtbar resp. erkenn- bar zu machen.There are a plurality of such trailers known wel ~ ere are also called Padlock. In particular with such trailers, in which the bracket can no longer be released non-destructively after locking, the problem exists on the one hand to prevent attempts at manipulation of the closure on the one hand and on the other hand to make it visible or to make it recognizable.
So ist beispielsweise aus US 4,779,911 ein derartiger Anhänger bekannt, welcher aus wenigen Teilen aufgebaut ist und sich nach dem Verriegeln des Bügels nicht mehr zerstörungsfrei öffnen lässt . Dabei werden die beiden Enden eines U- förmiger Bügels aus Metall in einem kastenartigen Gehäuse gelagert. In ungebrauchtem, geöffneten Zustand ist lediglich ein Ende des Bügels längsverschiebbar zwischen zwei Anschlägen und seitlich schwenkbar in diesem Gehäuse gelagert . Damit kann der Bügel bestimmungsgemäss eingesetzt werden, bei- spielsweise durch Einführen des freien Endes in eine oder mehrere Ösen. Anschliessend kann das freie Ende in die entsprechende Öffnung im Anhängergehäuse eingeführt werden, in welchem von Aussen unzugänglich federnde Rückhaltemittel angeordnet sind, welche diese Ende des U-Bügels nun unverrück- bar festhalten. So greifen die federnden Rückhaltemittel in eine am Bügelende ausgeformte Ringnut ein. Das Öffnen des Anhängers muss nun durch Durchtrennen des U-Bügels mit einem Werkzeug erfolgen, wodurch der Anhänger für einen weiteren Einsatz unbrauchbar wird. Diese bekannte Ausführungsform eines Anhängers ist zwar einfach aus nur wenigen Teilen aufgebaut, weist aber etliche Mängel insbesondere betreffend der Manipulationssicherheit auf .For example, such a trailer is known from US Pat. No. 4,779,911, which is constructed from a few parts and can no longer be opened without being destroyed after the bracket has been locked. The two ends of a U-shaped bracket made of metal are stored in a box-like housing. In the unused, open state, only one end of the bracket can be moved longitudinally between two stops and pivoted laterally in this housing. The bracket can thus be used as intended, for example by inserting the free end into one or more eyelets. The free end can then be inserted into the corresponding opening in the trailer housing, in which resilient retaining means are arranged which are inaccessible from the outside and which now firmly hold this end of the U-bracket. The resilient retaining means engage in an annular groove formed at the end of the bracket. The trailer must now be opened by cutting the U-bracket with a tool, making the trailer unusable for further use. Although this known embodiment of a trailer is simply made up of only a few parts, it has a number of shortcomings, in particular with regard to security against manipulation.
Die Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung bestand nun darin, einen derartigen Anhänger zu schaffen, welcher noch einfacher im Aufbau sein soll bei verbesserter Manipulationssicherheit.The object of the present invention was to create such a trailer, which should be even simpler in construction with improved security against manipulation.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäss durch einen Anhänger mit den Merkmalen nach Anspruch 1 gelöst .This object is achieved according to the invention by a trailer with the features of claim 1.
Vorteilhafterweise lässt sich ein derartiger erfindungsgemä- sser Anhänger vorzugsweise einteilig herstellen und besitzt eine sehr hohe Manipulationssicherheit, dadurch, dass die Verriegelungsorgange von aussen unzugänglich und nicht offen im Gehäuseinnern angeordnet sind. Der Anhänger weist durch seine Einteiligkeit trotz der Manipulationssicherheit dennoch die Vorteile eines einfachen Aufbaues auf . Ein derartiger Anhänger eignet sich insbesondere als günstiger Massenartikel bei Anwendungen mit hohem Sicherheitsbedarf resp . hoher Manipulationssicherheit .Advantageously, such a trailer according to the invention can preferably be produced in one piece and has a very high level of security against manipulation, in that the locking members are arranged inaccessible from the outside and not open inside the housing. Due to its one-piece construction, the trailer has the advantages of a simple structure despite the security against manipulation. Such a trailer is particularly suitable as an inexpensive mass-produced item in applications with high security requirements. high security against manipulation.
Bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den abhängigen Ansprüchen 2 bis 9.Preferred embodiments of the invention result from the dependent claims 2 to 9.
Ein Ausführungsbeispiel der vorliegenden Erfindung wird nachstehend anhand von Zeichnungen noch näher erläutert. Es zeigenAn embodiment of the present invention is explained in more detail below with reference to drawings. Show it
Fig. 1 die Aufsicht mit Teilschnitt auf einen erfin- dungsgemässen Anhänger in der geschlossenen Position;1 shows the top view with partial section of a trailer according to the invention in the closed position;
Fig. 2 einen Längsschnitt durch den Anhänger nach Figur 1 ; und Fig. 3 die Ansicht des Rohlings des Anhängers nach Figur 1.Figure 2 is a longitudinal section through the trailer of Figure 1; and 3 shows the view of the blank of the trailer according to FIG. 1.
Figur 1 zeigt nun die Aufsicht mit Teilschnitt auf einen er- findungsgemässen Anhänger 1 in der geschlossenen Position, d.h. mit geschlossenem Bügel 2. Der Anhänger 1 weist dabei ein flaches, schalenförmiges Gehäuse 3 auf, welches oben und an seiner Vorderseite eine geschlossene Wandung 3 ' und 3 ' ' aufweist . Im Innern des Gehäuses 3 ist eine Halteplatte 4 an- geordnet, welche gleichzeitig die untere und hintere Seitenwandung 4 ' und 4 ' ' des Anhängers 1 bildet . Diese Halteplatte 4 ist einerseits über die Brücke 5 mit dem Gehäuse 3 verbunden und andererseits in der unteren Ecke über eine Verzapfung 6 resp. eine Niete mit den Seitenwänden des Gehäuses 3 ver- bunden. Damit liegt die Halteplatte 4 unverrückbar im Innern des Gehäuses 3 fest und kann nicht ohne sichtbare Manipulation aus diesem losgelöst werden.Figure 1 now shows the top view with partial section of a trailer 1 according to the invention in the closed position, i.e. with closed bracket 2. The trailer 1 has a flat, shell-shaped housing 3, which has a closed wall 3 'and 3' 'at the top and on its front. Arranged in the interior of the housing 3 is a holding plate 4, which simultaneously forms the lower and rear side walls 4 ′ and 4 ″ of the trailer 1. This holding plate 4 is connected on the one hand via the bridge 5 to the housing 3 and on the other hand in the lower corner via a mortise 6 or. a rivet is connected to the side walls of the housing 3. The holding plate 4 is thus immovably fixed in the interior of the housing 3 and cannot be detached from it without any visible manipulation.
Der Bügel 2 ist mit seinem einen Ende 2 ' ebenfalls mit dem Gehäuse 3, vorzugsweise einstückig, verbunden. Das freie Ende 21' des Bügels ist als Rückhalteorgan ausgebildet und mündet in der geschlossenen Position in entsprechend ausgebildete Rückhaltemittel der Halteplatte 4.The bracket 2 is also connected at its one end 2 'to the housing 3, preferably in one piece. The free end 2 1 'of the bracket is designed as a retaining element and, in the closed position, opens into appropriately designed retaining means of the retaining plate 4.
Als Rückhalteorgane des Bügels 2 dienen vorzugsweise ein Rückhaltezahn 7 sowie ein ebenfalls zahnförmig ausgebildeter Anschlagsnocken 8, welche gegeneinander wirkend ausgebildet sind. Diese Rückhalteorgane 7,8 greifen in entsprechend ausgebildete Rückhaltemittel der Halteplatte 4 ein, so hier vorzugsweise in eine federnde Zunge 9 mit einem ebenfalls federnd ausgebildeten Wippenkörper 10. In der in Figur 1 darge- stellten geschlossenen Position des Anhängers 1 ist das Büge- - 4 -A retaining tooth 7 and also a tooth-shaped stop cam 8, which are designed to act against one another, are preferably used as retaining members of the bracket 2. These restraining members 7, 8 engage in appropriately designed restraining means of the holding plate 4, so here preferably in a resilient tongue 9 with an equally resilient rocker body 10. In the closed position of the trailer 1 shown in FIG. - 4 -
lende 21' unverrückbar durch den Wippenkörper 10, d.h. seinen beiden kantigen Endbereichen, welche gegen den Rückhaltezahn 7 sowie den Anschlagsnocken 8 in Anschlag liegen, im Gehäuse 3 gehalten und kann nicht zerstörungsfrei entfernt werden.loin 2 1 'immovably held in the housing 3 by the rocker body 10, ie its two angular end regions, which lie against the retaining tooth 7 and the stop cam 8 and cannot be removed without being destroyed.
Hierfür dient unter anderem die Aufdickung 11 unterstützend , welche vorzugsweise am Bügel 2 im Uebergang zum Bügelende 2 ' ' ausgebildet ist. Die Aufdickung 11, beispielsweise in Form eines Ringes, ist derart ausgebildet, dass sie die Einstecköffnung 12 für das Bügelende 2' ' in der Oberseite 3' des Ge- häuses 3 in geschlossenem Zustand verschliesst und damit verhindert, dass in den durch diese Öffnung 12 und dem Bügelende 2 ' ' gebildeten Spalt ein Werkzeug zur Manipulation der Verbindung der Rückhalteorgane 7,8 resp. Rüchhaltemittel 9,10 eingeführt werden kann. Dies wird zusätzlich durch die vor- zugsweise bogenförmige Ausbildung des Bügelendes 2 ' ' erschwert, welche das Einführen eines geraden Manipulations- werkzeuges verhindert .The thickening 11, which is preferably formed on the bracket 2 in the transition to the bracket end 2 ″, serves inter alia for this purpose. The thickening 11, for example in the form of a ring, is designed in such a way that it closes the insertion opening 12 for the bow end 2 ″ in the top 3 ′ of the housing 3 in the closed state and thus prevents the opening 12 through the opening 12 and the bracket end 2 '' formed a tool for manipulating the connection of the retaining members 7, 8 respectively. Rüchhaltmittel 9.10 can be introduced. This is made more difficult by the preferably curved design of the bow end 2 ″, which prevents the insertion of a straight manipulation tool.
Wenn versucht werden sollte, den Bügel 2 mit Gewalt vom Gehäuse 3 abzutrennen, so wird der Bügel 2 zuerst an der vor- zugsweise vorgesehenen Sollbruchstelle 13 brechen und damit den Manipulationsversuch erkennbar machen. Da diese Sollbruchstelle 13 oberhalb der Aufdickung 11 angeordnet ist, verbleibt in diesem Fall das Bügelende 2 ' ' im Gehäuse 3 des Anhängers 1 und kann auch unter Zuhilfenahme eines Werkzeuges nicht entfernt werden, ohne dass das Gehäuse 3 selbst auch beschädigt werden würde.If an attempt should be made to forcefully separate the bracket 2 from the housing 3, the bracket 2 will first break at the predetermined breaking point 13 that is preferably provided, thereby making the attempted manipulation recognizable. Since this predetermined breaking point 13 is arranged above the thickening 11, the bracket end 2 ″ remains in the housing 3 of the trailer 1 in this case and cannot be removed even with the aid of a tool without the housing 3 itself also being damaged.
Selbst wenn nun ein Werkzeug in den genannten Spalt eingeführt werden könnte, führt die Ausbildung des Rückhaltemittels in Form einer Wippe 10 dazu, dass es nicht gelingen wird, gleichzeitig sowohl den unteren Bereich der Wippe 10, welche mit dem Rückhaltezahn 7 in Kontakt steht, wie auch den oberen Teil der Wippe 10, welche mit dem Anschlagnocken 8 in Kontakt steht, gleichzeitig soweit zu verschieben, dass das Bügelende 2'' aus der Öffnung 12 entfernt werden könnte, ohne das Gehäuse 3 sichtbar zu beschädigen.Even if a tool could now be inserted into the gap mentioned, the design of the restraint means in the form of a rocker 10 means that it will not be possible to simultaneously move both the lower region of the rocker 10, which is in contact with the retaining tooth 7, as well as the upper part of the rocker 10, which is in contact with the stop cam 8, at the same time so far that the bracket end 2 ″ could be removed from the opening 12 without the housing 3 visible damage.
Weiter ist am Bügelende 2 ' vorzugsweise ein flacher, gegen die Bügelöffnung ausragender Zapfen 15 vorgesehen, welcher in geschlossenem Zustand des Anhängers 1 zwischen an beiden Seitenflächen des Gehäuses 3 ausgebildeten Wangen 14 zu liegen kommt und damit von diesen seitlich geführt wird. Damit wird verhindert, dass das Bügelende 2 ' im Uebergangsbereich zum Gehäuse 3 seitlichen Belastung ausgesetzt wird, welche zu einem Bruch des Bügels 2 in diesem Bereich führen könnten. Selbstverständlich könnte der Zapfen 15 auch am Gehäuse 3 selbst ausgebildet sein, welcher zwischen zwei am Bügelende 2 ' angeordnete parallele Wangen 15 eingreifen könnte .Furthermore, a flat pin 15 protruding against the bow opening is provided at the bow end 2 ', which comes to rest in the closed state of the trailer 1 between cheeks 14 formed on both side surfaces of the housing 3 and is thus guided laterally by them. This prevents the bracket end 2 'from being subjected to lateral loads in the transition area to the housing 3, which could lead to the bracket 2 breaking in this area. Of course, the pin 15 could also be formed on the housing 3 itself, which could engage between two parallel cheeks 15 arranged at the bracket end 2 '.
Ein besonders grosser Vorteil des vorliegenden Anhängers 1 liegt nun darin, dass die Konstruktion derart aufgebaut ist, dass sie sich einteilig produzieren lässt, wie aus der An- sieht nach Figur 3 hervorgeht. Die drei Teile Gehäuse 3, Halteplatte 3 und Bügel 2 lassen sich als einen einzigen Spritz- ling fertigen, die Bereiche sind über die Brücke 5 und das Bügelende 2' miteinander verbunden. Damit lässt sich die Halteplatte 4 einfach in den Hohlraum des Gehäuses 3 um die Brücke 5 herum einschwenken und vorzugsweise mittels der Verzapfung 6 unverrückbar zu einem offenen Anhänger 1 verbinden.A particularly great advantage of the present trailer 1 is that the construction is constructed in such a way that it can be produced in one piece, as can be seen from the view in FIG. 3. The three parts housing 3, holding plate 3 and bracket 2 can be manufactured as a single molding, the areas being connected to one another via the bridge 5 and the bracket end 2 '. This allows the holding plate 4 to be simply pivoted into the cavity of the housing 3 around the bridge 5 and preferably immovably connected to an open trailer 1 by means of the journal 6.
Damit wird vorteilhafterweise ein einstückiger Anhänger 1, auch Padlock genannt, geschaffen, welcher im Gegensatz zu vielen bekannten derartigen einteiligen Anhängern wegen des vollständig geschlossenen Verriegelungsbereiches besonders manipulationssicher ist , wie oben dargelegt . This advantageously creates a one-piece trailer 1, also called a padlock, which, in contrast to many known such one-piece trailers, because of the completely closed locking area is particularly tamper-proof, as explained above.
