PARTITION WITH SWIVELED PANELS

The invention relates to a separation fence with arranged between the posts panels and in particular a separation fence in which the panels can be swung out on two sides.

Separating fences are used to delimit neighboring areas. In public areas are separating fences z. As for the protection of danger spots, for identifying and limiting certain areas of use such as waiting areas at stops, or as a guide to specify desired routes, z. B. in parks, stadiums or subway stations used.

Apart from demarcation, separating fences are also often used for information reproduction, for which the fences are equipped with information carriers. Depending on the intended use of a fence, the contents reproduced on the information carriers differ, the use of such information carriers for advertising purposes becoming increasingly important.

International patent application WO 2007/071316 A1 discloses a separation fence in which a panel designed to receive information carriers is arranged between two posts. The panel is connected to each of the posts via a pivot joint which allows pivoting of the panel between the two horizontal end positions, e.g. B. can be used to sit or drop objects. When not in use, the panel automatically adjusts to the vertical position between the two horizontal positions by means of a suitably chosen weight distribution. To limit the pivot angle, a bolt is provided on the panel, which engages in a provided on the pivot joint guide groove. As a result, there is a considerable risk that clothes are trapped and damaged in the guide groove over the bolt, or injure persons and especially inexperienced children on this guide. Furthermore, the fence disclosed in WO 2007/071316 A1 does not provide any possibility of supplying any electrical devices possibly arranged in the panel.

Other barrier devices with folding seats are known from German patent application DE 43 24 920 A1 and the German Utility Model DE 295 01 720 U1.

Based on the above, it is therefore desirable to specify a safer separation fence. Furthermore, it is desirable to provide a separation fence, the the supply of a arranged in a panel electrical device allows.

Embodiments of a separation fence with reduced risk of injury and the ability to power electrical devices mounted in or on the pivotable panel include two posts, a panel disposed between the posts, and pivotal hinges for pivotally connecting the panel to the posts. The posts of these embodiments are adapted for fixed connection to a floor and one of the posts has in its interior a cavity accessible via at least one of its ends and a lateral opening to this cavity. The panel also has a lateral opening. The hinges are each disposed between one of the posts and the panel, wherein at least one of the hinges comprises a first hinge body connected to the voided post and including a first pivot bearing device and a second hinge body comprising a second pivot bearing device. The two rotary bearing devices are in this case designed such that one of the two rotary bearing devices surrounds the other in the radial direction and the radially inner of the two rotary bearing devices surrounds a cavity which is connected via an opening in the first joint body with the lateral opening of the post and an opening in the second Joint body is connected to the lateral opening of the panel. The first joint body further comprises two first abutment surfaces, which are arranged at a radial distance from the axis of rotation and within a first angle with respect to the axis of rotation. The second joint body has two second abutment surfaces, which are arranged at a radial distance from the axis of rotation, that they can abut when turning the second joint body relative to the first joint body to the first abutment surfaces, wherein the second abutment surfaces within a second with respect to the axis of rotation Angle are arranged and the sum of first angle and second angle a value from the range of 230 to 280 degrees or a value from the range of 240 to 280 degrees or a value from the range of 250 to 280 degrees or a value from the range of 260 to 280 degrees or from the range of 170 to 190 degrees. Instead of the above-mentioned upper limit of the angular range of 280 degrees, an upper limit of the angular range of 270 degrees and more preferably less than 270 degrees such as 265 degrees or 260 degrees may be used with the lower limits of the angular ranges of 230 degrees and 240 degrees and 250, respectively Degrees or 260 degrees remain unchanged. For a tilt angle of the panel of 90 degrees, the sum of the first and second angles is 270 degrees. The hinged panel of such a separation fence can be used both for the transmission of information by z. As attachment or introduction of information carriers, as well as sitting or storage. Further, the hinged panel facilitates the passage of items from one side of the fence to the other without having to lift them over the fence. The formation of the separation fence with two posts allows a stable attachment to a floor, so that even with larger loads no tilting of the separation fence is to be feared. The pivot bearing devices enclosing an externally accessible cavity enable a compact design of the hinges with closed passage, whereby the possibility of a protected cable management from the post in the panel and the risk of injury to the hinge is effectively prevented.

In the figures, elements which fulfill substantially the same technical functions are provided with the same reference numerals. Various embodiments of these elements have similar reference numerals.

The schematic representation of Figure 1 shows a separation fence 100 in which between two posts 1 and 2 by means of hinges 5 and 5 'a panel 4 is pivotally mounted. Under a post here is an elongated support member for vertical obstruction to understand. The term panel is used in this specification in its general form, i. H. to designate a flat body in which the front and rear dimensions are greater than the distance between these sides. Front and back of a panel can be planar but also profiled, for example, provided with a recess executed.

The panel 4 may optionally be pivoted from the vertical one shown in the left-hand illustration of FIG. 1 to the front or rear horizontal layer illustrated in the right-hand illustration of FIG. While the panel 4 in the vertical position visually illustrates the area boundary by the separation fence 100, the panel can be used in the horizontal pivoting positions as a seat or as a storage for objects. Furthermore, pivoting the panel in a horizontal position also allows passing objects into reach. Preferably, the panel pivots automatically when not in use in the vertical position.

In the illustration shown, the panel is provided with an information carrier 20, which is preferably introduced into a cavity of the panel through its transparent or transparent front visible. The content presented on the information carrier may serve advertising purposes as illustrated in FIG. 1, but may also contain information relevant to the particular intended use of the separation fence 100: for example the public transport timetable if the separation fence 100 serves to delineate the stop area; or an indication such as B. "no passage" or the like, or a graphical marking such. B. a light reflective stripe pattern.

As information carrier 20 are all known types of physical information carriers, in particular papers, plastic films, luminescent films, animated luminescent and illuminated or backlit electronic flat screens, such. As liquid crystal displays are to call. To the Information carriers are also called electronic papers to count, the z. As electrophoretic processes, electrowetting or micromechanically controlled interference modulation use, but also bistable liquid crystal displays. The electronic papers may use reflectors or be backlit. Electronic papers need energy only during the change of the representation shown on it and are therefore particularly advantageous in isolated applications in which no external power connection is available. Furthermore, the panel instead of an information carrier can also include luminous body, the different areas of the panel, for. B. for animation purposes, different or even at different times illuminate.

The panel may be provided with one or more chamber-like cavities for receiving and possibly illuminating an information carrier, preferably for inserting and retrieving from a side surface of the panel 4, for example the side surface on the lower edge of the panel 4 in the left-hand side of FIG accessible to the information carrier. On this side surface preferably a removable cover is attached, which ensures the storage of the information carrier in the panel 4 and prevents ingress of dirt and moisture. The fixation of the removable side panel on the panel 4 can by fastening means, such. As security screws or frequent change of information carrier also done by means of magnets.

Alternative embodiments of the panel 4 have printed visible from inside or outside, d. H. Front and / or back sides, wherein between the two sides of a lighting device may be arranged, which backlit the pressure and so makes well recognizable even in unfavorable external lighting situation or at night. Such a direct printing of the visible sides of the panel is particularly suitable if the content reproduced by the information carrier is valid for a long period of time or does not have to be replaced with another one. Instead of printing the visible sides of the panel, these can also be printed with a z. B. foil-shaped information carrier are pasted.

When using foil-shaped information carrier such. As paper or plastic films or film-shaped display devices in conjunction with a lighting device for backlighting the information carrier, the panel preferably has three chambers, one of which is adjacent to the inside of a viewing side and the third is arranged to receive the illumination between the other two chambers , The panel may be in one piece, z. Example, as a manufactured in an injection molding or by blow molding part. Particularly suitable materials for this purpose are transparent colorless or colored polycarbonates, for example polyesters or so-called acrylic glasses. In principle, all materials are suitable which have a sufficiently high strength, impact strength, rigidity and hardness and are preferably transparent and in particular transparent.

Other embodiments of a panel 4 have a padding on one or both side surfaces. In the cases where only one side surface is provided with a cushion, the other side surface may continue to be illuminated and backlit for the reception of information carriers, printed, transparent, and from the inside, as indicated above. The padding may also be made using translucent materials and, for. B. by printing or weaving, even serve as an information carrier. Corresponding cushions improve the

5 seating comfort and are therefore particularly suitable for areas with high frequency of use of seating with simultaneous high length of time, for example, for waiting areas of public facilities, hospitals, railway stations or airports.

In the embodiment of a separation fence 100 illustrated in FIG. 1, the panel 4 has a frame which is formed from a metal profile, for example a U-profile. Suitable frame materials are metals, such as. As aluminum, black steel or stainless steel whose surfaces are finished by painting, powder coating, glass bead irradiation or other common surface treatments

: 5 can. Al-Mg-Si (aluminum-magnesium-silicon alloy) has proved to be particularly advantageous because of its low weight, its good mechanical properties and its high corrosion resistance. Of course, plastic profiles or profiles of naturally occurring materials such. B. wood can be used as frame elements. Front and back of the panel 4

(0 and possibly also between these pages located partitions to create additional chambers can be enclosed in grooves of the frame, wherein the bordered edges of the visible side plates are preferably removed so that their outer surfaces connect seamlessly to the outer surfaces of the bordering frame profile of the panel 4 used

S5 may have a height profile that allows for a more comfortable sitting.

When using sheet or foil-shaped information carrier, the panel 4 according to one embodiment, a U-shaped frame, between the frame elements on each of the two side surfaces, a 4 mm thick acrylic glass plate KD is arranged. To create a level seat towards the frame, the Frame covered edges of the acrylic glass panels according to the frame thickness offset to the uncovered surface executed. For example, the space bounded by the U-shaped frame can be closed with 4 mm thick acrylic glass plates, the edges of these plates being milled off in the covering area of the frame by 2 mm. At a distance of at least 0.2 mm and at most 4 mm, two steel sheets of stainless steel are respectively arranged below the acrylic glass plates inside the frame and are held by the frame. The space between the two steel sheets is filled with Styrofoam. If the sheet or foil-shaped information carrier to be illuminated from within the panel, a plate of translucent material, such as plastic or glass, is arranged in each case instead of the two steel sheets. The illumination takes place via a light source arranged between the two translucent plates. In one embodiment, the connection points of the Plexiglas plates to the frame by means of a suitable sealant, for. B. Neoprene®, sealed against moisture and especially against the ingress of liquids. It should be noted that the above-described panel structure is merely one possible embodiment of the present invention and is not limited to this embodiment. For example, in another embodiment, the space between the translucent outer panels captured by the panel frame may be filled by a foam body that provides comfortable compliance to a pad instead of the seating surface. Suitable foam body can z. B. of foamed polystyrene (EPS) or extruded polystyrene foam (XPS) are produced. In particular, closed-cell foams are preferred, with a possible water absorption by changing the foam with z. B. a film can be additionally minimized. For illumination as well as backlighting purposes, bulbs such as e.g. B. LEDs (LEDs) are arranged, which are inserted either in openings formed at the edge or foamed with in the production of the foam body. Alternatively, the foam body may consist of two adjacent partial bodies, between which the lamps are arranged. Fixing the two body parts together, z. B. by gluing, is not generally required, but can positively influence the long-term stability of the structure.

In addition to a symmetrical construction as described above, panels of asymmetrical construction may also be used. For example, if only one side of the panel for receiving an information carrier, for example, to serve as an advertising medium. By way of example, the side lying down at the horizontal orientation of the panel can then be used as the information carrier, and the In the case of a horizontal orientation of the panel, the upper side has a padding, a ventilated seat surface (eg made of perforated metal sheet) or the like. In this case, for example, according to one embodiment, the panel may altogether consist of plastic (possibly foamed in full volume or in a partial volume). In the side lying down at the horizontal orientation of the panel, a recess is provided in which the information carrier 20 (eg advertising medium) can be arranged. This recess can be closed, for example, by an acrylic glass pane. However, the present invention is not limited to the above panel structure.

Instead of the removable side surface described above, the opening of the panel 4 after the introduction of information carriers and / or electrical devices also cohesively, z. B. be closed with an adhesive tape. Also, the opening of the panel 4 may be sealed by means of a seal against moisture and in particular liquid.

To supply the lighting or a screen in the panel 4 with power and / or information signals, the panel 4 has an opening which is arranged at the level of the pivot joint 5 attached to one of the side surfaces. The opening allows the insertion of one or more cables into or into the cavities or chambers formed in the panel 4. When using electronic information carrier z. B. a telecommunication cable are passed through the opening, via which a remote control and possibly remote maintenance maintenance of the information carrier is made possible. Of course, remote control and remote maintenance via an air interface, such as a mobile interface, be realized, which may be arranged to secure a low-noise reception preferably in the upper regions of the posts or in the bolt and is connected via a guided through the hinge cable to the information carrier , About appropriate interfaces can z. For example, a connection to a website on which the desired information is presented.

The shape of the panels 4 may differ from that illustrated in the figures. For example, instead of the rectangular shape with bevelled leading edges and shapes without chamfers, with curves instead of chamfers, or even partial circular or circular or elliptical basic shapes can be selected. The suspension of the panels on the hinges 5 can also be done centrally to maximize the information surface.

The upper ends of the posts 1 and 2 may be formed as free ends, which are expediently covered with a cap when using hollow sections as posts. To increase the mechanical stability of the separation fence 100, the two posts 1 and 2 are connected in the embodiment shown in Figure 1 at its upper ends with a bolt 3. In the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the latch is constructed in three parts from two knee elements and one horizontal element. In one of these embodiments, the knee members are formed of cast aluminum. But it can also be used any other material such as metal, plastic or a natural material such as wood. As a bolt and other suitable cross-connections can be used, for example, a pipe bend, or a horizontal tube. The connection of the bolt with the posts can be made both positive and cohesive. Bolt and posts may also be integrally formed, for example in the form of a U-shaped bent rod or a U-shaped bent tube, as shown schematically for an exemplary embodiment in Figures 3a and 3b.

In the embodiment shown in Figure 1, the lower end 7 of the posts 1 and 2 for anchoring in a ground, for example by insertion into a previously introduced into the soil sleeve, by setting in concrete, screwing, riveting, soldering or welding. The under end of the posts may be designed for one or more of the common ground anchors including a chemical anchor adapted. Other embodiments have a design of the lower end 7 of the posts, which allow a recording in a pedestal or in a profile, which rests on a floor or is firmly connected thereto. The lower end of the post can be formed for this purpose as a profile, for example of a cast material, an extruded or extruded material.

An alternative embodiment, in which the lower end 7 of the posts 1 and 2 of the separation fence 200 is connected to a base plate 1, is shown schematically in FIG. The bottom plate 11 shown in Figure 2 has lockable rollers 12, and is thus displaced. This allows a particularly flexible use of the separation fence 100, for example, to direct streams of people or demarcation of construction sites. Alternatively, the bottom plate 11 may be permanently attached to the ground, for example by screwing or gluing. In this case, no roles are provided.

An attachment to glued to the bottom surface profiles (not shown in the figures) is suitable for. B. for setting up the separation fence on floors, in the because of therein contained installations such. B. a floor heating holes can not be drilled. The posts can be releasably secured in the profiles by means of a clamping or screw connection, and thus a needs-adapted displacement enable the separation fence or separating fences in the rail formed by the profile. To protect the ground anchoring from dirt or other environmental influences, the ground connection area of the posts 1 and 2 is advantageously covered with protective caps 8.

In order to obtain a mobile separation fence unit also feet 13 can be used instead of the above-mentioned base plate 11. A correspondingly designed separating fence 300 is illustrated in FIG. 3 a, with the two feet 13 being connected to one another in the illustrated embodiment via a web connection 14. Stand feet 13 and web connection 14 can be made in one piece or constructed of several components.

A modification of the separation fence 300 of Figure 3a is shown schematically in Figure 3b. The feet 13 of the separation fence 300 'are not held by a web connection 14 in a fixed position to each other. Instead, the frame of the separation fence 300 'has a cross member 15 interconnecting the posts 1 and 2 of the frame. This arranged below a panel 4 and two adjacent posts 1, 2 connecting cross member 15 may optionally be provided in all embodiments. The use of the cross member 15 is expressly not limited to mobile separation fence units.

According to a further alternative embodiment, which is shown in FIG. 3c, the posts 1 and 2 of the separation fence 400 are fastened not on the ground, but on a wall or step adjacent to the separation fence 400 by means of a fastening element 16. In FIG 3 also a z. B. using light-emitting diodes 17 incorporated, which illuminates the located in or on the panel 4 information carrier 20 and / or the ground in front of the separation fence 400. The z. B. equipped with LEDs lighting can also be used as path lighting. Further, a backrest 18 is provided in Figure 3c, which is padded in the present embodiment. Alternatively or additionally, the backrest 18 may be provided with an information carrier 20. It is emphasized that such a bolt 3 with lighting 17 and / or such a backrest 18 may be provided in all embodiments.

FIG. 4 shows a further embodiment of a separating fence 500, in which two separating fence elements formed on the basis of the separating fence 100 shown in FIG. 1 are connected to one another by means of two rungs 9, which continue the blocking between the two separating fence elements 100. Of course, it is also possible only one rung 9 or more than two Sprouts 9 to use. Instead of the rungs 9, in the region between the two separating fences 100, a panel 4 either fixed or pivotally connected by means of swivel joints 5 or 5 'can be connected to the immediately adjacent posts of the adjacent separating fences 100.

According to a further alternative embodiment, which likewise builds on the embodiment 100 shown in FIG. 1 and is shown in FIG. 5, panels 4 of adjacent separating fence elements 100 can also be fastened to a post 1 shared by both panels. In this case, the use o of rungs 9 between the separating fences 100 can be dispensed with. Further, the latch of this embodiment can connect the area between the two outboard posts in a straight line.

According to two further alternative embodiment 500 'and 500 ", which build on the 5 shown in Figure 5 embodiment 500, in a stringing together of a maximum of four, in particular a maximum of three and preferably a maximum of two adjacent panels 4 with a corresponding strength of the post 1, 2 and 3 also completely dispenses with support between the panels 4. Rather, the panels 4 may then either be fastened directly to each other, as shown in Figure 11a, or, as shown in Figure 11b, to the posts 1, 2 connecting cross member 15. This Y can be frictionally connected between the panels 4 with the bolt 3 (shown in phantom).

Posts such as rungs and bars are preferably made of metal tubes or profiles

5 manufactured, since these have a high mechanical strength and can be produced inexpensively. Of course, plastic profiles or plastic-metal composite profiles can be used. The posts, rungs and bars can optionally be made of the same or different materials. In one preferred for open space and intensive use o embodiment, the posts, rungs and bars are each formed from stainless steel tubes with a diameter of 50 mm. However, the invention is not limited to a diameter of 50 mm or certain wall thicknesses. For use for private purposes and indoors, posts, rungs and bars are preferably made of aluminum materials. In one or

5 both rungs 9 and / or 3 bars can be provided (in Figure 2 only for the lower rung 9) 17 for the ground area before or around the separation fence 100. At least one of the posts 1 or 2 of a separation fence 100 has a cavity accessible over at least one of the ends of the pole. When using a tube or hollow profile as a post, the internal volume of the forms

D pipe or profile this cavity. At the height of the hinge 5, the post has a lateral opening which extends into the cavity. Thus, over the end of the post and the lateral opening of a cable are passed through the cavity of the post.

In other embodiments, a frame formed of the posts 1 and 2 and a possible latch 3 and possibly one or more cross connectors 15, the supporting part of the frame is formed by a steel structure, which is made for example of a U-profile. The steel structure is housed within a, for example tubular, construction which forms the externally visible part of the frame. The latter does not have to carry any supporting functions, but can be designed according to aesthetic aspects, whereby it is important to ensure sufficient weather resistance.

The attached to the post 1 swivel joint 5 establishes a pivotal connection between the post 1 and the panel 4. The hinge has a through opening which provides a passage from the side opening of the post 1 to the side opening of the panel 4, thereby providing the possibility of transferring a cable from the post to the panel.

FIG. 6 illustrates an embodiment of such a rotary joint 5. The rotary joint 5 has two hinge bodies 51 and 52. The joint body 51 has an outer wall 511 in the form of a hollow cylinder, which is closed at one of its two sides by a base. The base has an opening 512 which creates a passage from the outside of the base to the interior bounded by the outer wall 511. In the interior of the joint body is a part-annular jaw 514, the side surfaces 514a and 514b are aligned radially to the geometry of the outer wall 511. The center of the partial annular geometry of the jaw lies on the axis of symmetry of the outer wall 511. Further, the jaw 514 has a distance from the inner circumferential surface 513 of the outer wall 511, which is an insertion of the cylindrical part of the outer wall 521 of the joint body 52 in the interior of the joint body 51 allows.

The articulated body 52 has an outer wall 521 which comprises a hollow cylindrical part and a lid arranged in the region of one of the base surfaces whose outer diameter corresponds approximately to the outer diameter of the articulated body 51 and which has an opening 522 in its center, which is a passage from the interior of the hollow cylindrical part to the outside of the lid creates. The diameter of the outer lateral surface 523 of the hollow cylindrical part is slightly smaller than the diameter of the inner circumferential surface of the joint body 51, so that the two surfaces after assembly of the two joint body 51 and 52 can slide on each other and thus allow rotation of the two joint body about the common axis of symmetry. In the interior of the joint body 52 is also a part-annular jaw 524, the side surfaces 524 a and 524 b are aligned radially to the geometry of the outer wall 511. The center of the part-annular geometry of the jaw lies on the axis of symmetry of the outer wall 521. The projection of the lid of the outer wall 521 on the hollow cylindrical part serves to cover the end face of the cylindrical part of the joint body 51 in the assembled state of the rotary joint, in which the joint body 52 is inserted inserted into the joint body 51. As a result, the rotary joint has a can-shaped geometry which does not change when the joint bodies rotate relative to each other. The risk of trapping foreign bodies in the hinge is thereby minimized and ensures safe operation of the rotary joint.

The outer walls of the hinge bodies 51 and 52 are preferably made of metal, wherein at least one of the sliding surfaces of the two hinge bodies may be coated with a friction-reducing material. Alternatively, between the inner circumferential surface 513 of the joint body 51 and the outer lateral surface 523 of the joint body 52, a ring made of a friction-reducing material, such as a plastic material may be arranged. In further alternative embodiments are located between the two mutually facing lateral surfaces rolling elements, for. B. captured in a cage balls or needles.

The limitation of the angle of rotation, ie the angular range within which the two joint bodies in the assembled state can be rotated against each other, is effected by the two jaws 514 and 524. Serving as abutment surfaces side surfaces of the jaws are each arranged from the symmetry axis of the joint body from within a certain angle. In the jaw 514, the abutment surfaces 514a and 514b are within an angle φ- | in the jaw 524, the abutment surfaces 524a and 524b are arranged within an angle q> 2. The two angles can be the same or different. For a limitation of the angle of rotation of the rotary joint 5 to 180 degrees, as it is required for pivoting the panel 4 in the two horizontal positions, the sum of the two angles> 2 is 180 degrees. In many cases, however, slightly different angles of rotation are preferred, for example, to increase or decrease sitting comfort, which may affect the time felt by a person sitting on the panel to be comfortable. Preferably, therefore, the maximum rotation angle of the rotary joint 5 becomes a value in the range of 170 to 190 degrees limited, whereby a slightly tilted upwards or slightly downwards end position of the swung-out panel 4 can be adjusted. Accordingly, φ- | and ψ2 is chosen such that its sum also corresponds to a value from the range of 170 to 190 degrees. In general, for the available rotation angle φρ:

(PD = 360 ° - ( _φΐ + cp ₂ );

If the panel is provided only for pivoting on one of the two sides, then φ- | and q> 2 are chosen so that their sum corresponds to a value in the range of 260 to 280 degrees, resulting in a rotation angle range of 80 to 100 degrees. According to embodiments, the range may be smaller, optionally 250 to 280 degrees, 240 to 280 degrees, and 230 to 280 degrees, resulting in larger pivot ranges of 80 to 110 degrees, 80 to 120 degrees, and 80 to 130 degrees, respectively , Such a large angular range makes it possible to replace an information carrier 20 received in the panel 4 even if one side of the separation fence 100 is not accessible due to its arrangement (eg on a street) and the distance of the panel 4 to the floor is vertically oriented Panel 4 is too low to allow an exchange of the information carrier down. A corresponding example with a rotation angle of 130 degrees and slightly downwardly inclined seating position is illustrated in the side view in Figure 7.

For damping the stop when the panel is pivoted into one of the end positions, in embodiments of the rotary joint the jaws are made of an elastic material, for example of a synthetic rubber or natural rubber. In other embodiments, the jaws are made of a non-elastic material, wherein at least one of the stop faces coming into contact in an end position of rotation is covered with an elastic material.

The rear portioning of the panel 4 from a pivoted position to the vertical rest position can be achieved by means of an uneven weight distribution in the panel 4. For this purpose, the cover of the left in the left of Figure 1 lower edge or side surface of the panel 4, for example, a (not shown in the figures) weight, which generates a torque about the axis of rotation of the swivel joint 5 when swung panel, about a swinging back of the Panel is effected in the vertical position.

Other embodiments have a z. B. in the form of a torsion spring (not shown in the figures) return spring, in which of the two Enclosed bodies is arranged cavity, and generates a restoring moment when turning the two joint body from a rest position.

The fixation of the panel 4 in the rest position takes place in an embodiment as previously mentioned by means (not specifically shown in the figures) permanent magnets, one or a first group of permanent magnets mounted on or in the frame 4, and a second permanent magnet or a second group of permanent magnets are mounted in the frame formed by the posts 1, 2 and the eventual latch. In the rest position of the panel, the magnets mounted in the panel 4 facing the mounted in the frame, preferably the poles of the magnets aligned with each other and the polarities of two magnetic poles facing each other are different. For example, the north pole of a magnet in the posts 1, 2 and the bolt 3 facing a south pole of the associated magnet in the panel 4, or vice versa, the south pole of a magnet in the posts 1, 2 and the bolt 3 a north pole of the associated magnet in Panel 4 facing. In the panel 4, the magnets are thus at one or more sides facing the frame and in the, from posts 1 and 2 and possibly bolt formed, frame on the panel 4 facing sides. The arrangement of the magnets is such that a distance between a respective magnet in the posts 1 and 2 or the bolt 3 and the associated magnet in the panel 4 is as small as possible, the distance should not fall below a certain minimum size, to the risk of Prevent pinching fingers between the panel and the frame. In order to achieve high field strengths, the permanent magnets are formed according to an embodiment of a neodymium-iron-boron compound. The magnets not only serve to maintain a defined rest position of the panel 4 in the frame, but also for damping Nachschwingbewegungen and suppressing oscillations by external influences such. B. wind load.

Inside the rotary joint 5 is a cavity which extends from the opening 512 of the first hinge body 51 to the opening 522 of the second hinge body 52, and forms with these openings a passage through the hinge 5. The cavity is designed so that upon rotation of the joint body relative to each other, no parts of the joint body can penetrate into the cavity. Thus, the passageway provided with the cavity and the openings can be used as a protected passage for electrical supply from one of the posts 1 or 2 into the panel 4 as described above. Further, to ensure that a routed cable can not enter areas of the hinge interior which are passed by parts of the pivot 5 during one rotation, an annular wall may be formed in the area between the openings 512 and 522 and the jaws 514 and 524 be provided, which extends from the can bottom of a joint body to the bottom of the can body of the other joint body. Of course, the (not shown in Figure 6) annular wall can be integrally formed on one of the joint body, as well as in two pieces both in one piece, each portion is integrally formed on each one of the joint body. Instead of integrally forming the wall with the joint bodies, this can also be used as an independent, z. B. sleeve-shaped component to be arranged in the hinge 5.

It should be noted that in many applications, only one of the hinges 5 and 5 'must have a performance as described above. The second pivot 5 'may then have a simpler structure, for example, be formed without openings 512 and 522 or also have a central axis of rotation.

Preferred is a clamping connection as illustrated in FIG. 1, in which one of the hinge bodies of the swivel joint has a clamping attachment 515 with which the swivel joint is laterally applied to the post such that the opening 512 of the joint body 51 is arranged on the lateral opening of the post. The clamping attachment 5 5 is preferably profiled on the side facing the post so that it rests flat against the outside of the post. For this purpose, the clamping projection profile in the connection region is approximately complementary to the cross-sectional profile of the post in the connection region. The joint body 51 has (not shown in the figure) openings in the attachment means such. As screws, nuts, rivets, split pins, clamping cables or the like can be introduced. The openings extend from the bottom of the can body of the joint body 51 through the clamping attachment. In the embodiments illustrated in FIGS. 1, 2, 3 and 4, the fastening means engage in a clamp 6 arranged on the side of the post facing away from the clamping attachment 5 and thus fix the pivot joint 5 to the post. If a pivotable panel 4 is provided on both sides of the post, as in FIG. 5, the fastening means engage in the openings on the clamping attachment of the swivel joint 5 provided for the other panel 4. To further stabilize the connection, pins can be provided in the clamping attachment, which engage in corresponding openings , engage the depressions or openings formed on the post. Clamping attachment 515 and clamp 6 may be made touching each other to provide an outwardly closed connection of the hinge to the posts, wherein the attachment means are preferably inserted from the inside of the hinge body so that they are not visible from the outside. For fastening the panel 4, a groove 527 is provided in the illustrated embodiment on the outside of the bottom of the can body 52, into which the panel is inserted and fixed with fastening means (not shown in the figures). Instead of a groove and two mutually parallel webs or other profiles can be used.
