Description

Gebiet der ErfindungField of the invention

Die Erfindung befindet sich auf dem Gebiet der Ausstattungen und Einrichtungsgegenstände und betrifft eine Befestigungsvorrichtung insbesondere für Bilderrahmen, Spiegel, Regale und dergleichen.The invention is in the field of equipment and furnishings and relates to a fastening device, in particular for picture frames, mirrors, shelves and the like.

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Obschon das Problem, Bilderrahmen, Regale, Spiegel und dergleichen im Lot und in der gewünschten Höhe an einer Wand zu befestigen, seit langer Zeit bekannt ist, fehlt es erstaunlicherweise immer noch an einer zufriedenstellenden Lösung. Das übliche Vorgehen besteht nach wie vor darin, mindestens eine, vorzugsweise zwei stiftförmige Befestigungsvorrichtungen oder Haken an der Wand anzubringen, wozu es erforderlich ist, die beiden Vorrichtungen mit Hilfe einer Wasserwaage lotrecht einzuschlagen und deren gleiche Höhe und gegebenenfalls auch deren Abstand zuvor genau auszumessen. Dieses Vorgehen erfordert ein erhebliches Maß an Sorgfalt und Geschick und es entspricht der Alltagserfahrung, dass es eher die Regel als die Ausnahme ist, dass das Objekt anschließend keineswegs gerade hängt und zu hoch oder zu tief, jedoch nicht auf der richtigen Höhe angebracht ist. Bei einer Korrektur des aufzuhängenden Objektes muss in der Regel der Aufhängepunkt, der von einem Nagel, einer Schraube, einem Haken oder dergleichen gebildet wird, in seiner Position verändert werden. Verbunden damit ist, dass die Wand durch herausgezogene Nägel oder gar zusätzliche Bohrungen für Schrauben beschädigt wird, bis dann endlich die gewünschte Position erreicht ist.Although the problem of fixing picture frames, shelves, mirrors and the like in a wall at the desired height has been known for a long time, surprisingly, a satisfactory solution is still lacking. The usual procedure is still to install at least one, preferably two pin-shaped fastening devices or hooks on the wall, for which it is necessary to strike the two devices with the aid of a spirit level vertically and their exact height and possibly also measure their distance before exactly. This approach requires a great deal of care and skill, and it is the everyday experience that it is the rule rather than the exception that the object is then not straight and too high or too low, but not at the right height. In a correction of the object to be suspended usually the suspension point, which is formed by a nail, a screw, a hook or the like, must be changed in position. Associated with this is that the wall is damaged by pulled out nails or even additional holes for screws until finally the desired position is reached.

Nun ist es keinesfalls so, dass nicht in umfangreicher Weise versucht worden wäre, diesem Problem abzuhelfen. Der Stand der Technik offeriert unter dem Stichwort "Befestigungsvorrichtung" eine fünfstellige Zahl von einschlägigen Schutzrechten, die zum Teil ausgefallene, jedoch nicht realisierungsfähige Lösungen oder besser gesagt Scheinlösungen enthalten. So ist beispielsweise bekannt, dass zum Aufhängen von Bilderrahmen, Spiegel, Wandregale und Wandschränke überwiegend starre, d. h. nicht verstellbare bzw. einstellbare Aufhängevorrichtungen wie zum Beispiel Ösen oder Haken Verwendung finden. Aus der DE 8401307 U1 und der DE 7536810 U1 sind Aufhängevorrichtungen bekannt, deren Positionierung an der Wand sich in begrenztem Umfang zum Aufhängeobjekt verändern lässt. Das eingangs geschilderte Problem wird indes auf diese Weise nicht gelöst.Now, it is not the case that an extensive attempt has been made to remedy this problem. The prior art offers under the keyword "fastening device" a five-digit number of relevant intellectual property rights, some of which contain failed, but unrealizable solutions or better, sham solutions. For example, it is known that for hanging picture frames, mirrors, wall shelves and wall cabinets predominantly rigid, ie not adjustable or adjustable suspension devices such as eyelets or hooks are used. From the DE 8401307 U1 and the DE 7536810 U1 suspension devices are known whose positioning on the wall can be changed to a limited extent to Aufhängeobjekt. The problem described above, however, is not solved in this way.

Aus der US 1,442,036 ist eine Aufhängevorrichtung bekannt, bei der über eine Schraube eine Gewindehülse an der Rückseite des Rahmens befestigt wird. In der Gewindehülse befindet sich eine Gewindestange, über die die Höhe des Aufhängepunktes einstellbar ist. Eine seitliche Einstellung ist nicht möglich.From the US 1,442,036 a suspension device is known in which a screw a threaded sleeve is attached to the back of the frame. Located in the threaded sleeve a threaded rod over which the height of the suspension point is adjustable. A lateral adjustment is not possible.

Eine ähnliche Lösung wird in der DE 19610364 C2 vorgeschlagen. Dabei wird eine Grundplatte mit einen schwenkbaren Gelenkbolzen versehen. Dieser weist eine Gewindebohrung auf, in die eine Gewindestange eingedreht werden kann, welche an einer Seite eine Öse aufweist, die sich beim Verschwenken des Bolzens kreisbogenförmig bewegt. Bei der einstellbaren Aufhängevorrichtung ist die Grundplatte mit dem Rahmen bzw. dem Rahmenschenkel fest verbunden. Durch Verschwenken des Gelenkbolzens und/oder durch das Verdrehen der Gewindestange ist der Abstand zwischen dem Aufhängepunkt (z. B. einem Wandhaken, Nagel oder Schraube) und dem aufzuhängenden Gegenstand, der mit der Grundplatte fest verbunden ist, sowohl horizontal, als auch vertikal variabel einstellbar. Die Lösung ist indes aufwendig und hat sich wegen des hohen Preises in der Praxis als nicht zu vermarkten erwiesen.A similar solution will be found in the DE 19610364 C2 proposed. In this case, a base plate is provided with a pivotable hinge pin. This has a threaded bore into which a threaded rod can be screwed, which has an eyelet on one side, which moves in a circular arc during pivoting of the bolt. In the adjustable suspension the base plate is firmly connected to the frame or the frame legs. By pivoting the hinge pin and / or by twisting the threaded rod, the distance between the suspension point (eg a wall hook, nail or screw) and the object to be suspended, which is firmly connected to the base plate, both horizontally, and vertically variable adjustable. The solution, however, is complicated and has proven because of the high price in practice as not to market.

Im Deutschen Gebrauchsmuster DE-U 6919263 wird eine Befestigungsvorrichtung beschrieben, die aus der Kombination aus einem Haftmagneten und einem Scharnier besteht. Das Scharnier verfügt dabei über ein Drehgelenk, mit welchem sich unterschiedliche Winkel zur Wand einstellen lassen, um auf diese Weise einen optimalen Sitz des Haftmagneten zu gewährleisten. Das Problem, vertikale und horizontale Ausrichtung von Bilderrahmen beliebig ausrichten zu können, löst die Schrift indes nicht.In the German utility model DE-U 6919263 a fastening device is described which consists of the combination of an adhesive magnet and a hinge. The hinge has a hinge, with which different angles can be set to the wall, in order to ensure an optimal fit of the magnet. The problem of being able to align the vertical and horizontal alignment of picture frames, however, does not solve the font.

In diesem Zusammenhang sei auf ein Produkt der Firma Technospiro hingewiesen, bei dem es sich um eine Schraubzwinge mit C-Profil handelt, bei der einer der Basisschenkel Bohrungen aufweist, die zur Aufnahme von zwei Schrauben dienen, mit deren Hilfe dann der zu positionierende Gegenstand, beispielsweise ein Brett, fixiert werden kann. Die Vorrichtung ist jedoch für die eingangs geschilderte Problemstellung völlig ungeeignet.In this connection, reference should be made to a product of the company Technospiro, which is a screw clamp with C-profile, in which one of the base legs has holes which serve to receive two screws, with the help of which then the object to be positioned, For example, a board can be fixed. However, the device is completely unsuitable for the problem described above.

Das Problem, welches der vorliegenden Erfindung zugrunde liegt, hat somit darin bestanden, Bilderrahmen, Spiegel, Wandregale oder Wandschränke, waagerecht aufzuhängen, oder in der Horizontalen und/oder in der Vertikalen entsprechend zu platzieren, ohne dass die Position des Aufhängepunktes (Nagel, Haken, Schraube), sofern sie sich im mittelbaren Einstellbereich der Aufhängevorrichtung befinden, zu verändern. Die Lösung sollte zudem technisch besonders einfach sein, da sowohl komplizierte als auch teure Lösungen vom Verbraucher erfahrungsgemäß nicht akzeptiert werden und sich folglich auch nicht erfolgreich vermarkten lassen.The problem underlying the present invention has thus been to hang picture frames, mirrors, wall shelves or wall cabinets horizontally, or to place them horizontally and / or vertically accordingly, without the position of the suspension point (nail, hook , Screw), provided that they are in the indirect adjustment range of the suspension device. The solution should also be technically very simple, since both complicated and expensive solutions are not accepted by consumers experience and therefore can not be successfully marketed.

US 2 509 424 A offenbart eine Befestigungsvorrichtung nach dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1. US 2 509 424 A discloses a fastening device according to the preamble of claim 1.

Beschreibung der ErfindungDescription of the invention

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist eine Befestigungsvorrichtung insbesondere für die Befestigung von Bilderrahmen, insbesondere Keilrahmen, und des Weiteren Regalen, Spiegeln und dergleichen, umfassend ein L-Profil mit zwei Schenkeln (A und B) sowie zwei Schrauben (I und II), welche sich dadurch auszeichnet, dass

  1. (a) der erste Schenkel (A) des L-Profils eine Länge von 1 bis 10, vorzugsweise 30 bis 60 mm, eine Breite von 5 bis 20, vorzugsweise 7 bis 15 mm und Stärke von 1 bis 3 mm aufweist,
  2. (b) der zweite Schenkel (B) des L-Profils eine Länge von 10 bis 100, vorzugsweise 30 bis 60 mm, eine Breite von 10 bis 50, vorzugsweise 20 bis 30 mm und eine Stärke von 1 bis 3 mm aufweist,
  3. (c) die Schenkel (A und B) über die Längskante miteinander in einem im Wesentlichen rechten Winkel verbunden sind und so das L-Profil bilden,
  4. (d) der erste Schenkel (A) zwei Bohrungen zur Aufnahme von den zwei Schrauben (I und II) aufweist,
  5. (e) der zweite Schenkel (B) mindestens eine Bohrung zur Aufnahme einer stiftförmigen Befestigungsvorrichtung aufweist, und
  6. (f) die beiden Schrauben (I und II) den ersten Schenkel (A) in der Weise durchstoßen, dass die Schraubenköpfe am zweiten Schenkel (B) anliegen und die Schraubenhälse aus dem ersten Schenkel (A) herausragen und als Auflagepunkte für den zu positionierenden Gegenstand dienen.
The invention relates to a fastening device, in particular for the attachment of picture frames, in particular stretcher bars, and further shelves, mirrors and the like, comprising an L-profile with two legs (A and B) and two screws (I and II), which thereby that distinguishes
  1. (a) the first leg (A) of the L-profile has a length of 1 to 10, preferably 30 to 60 mm, a width of 5 to 20, preferably 7 to 15 mm and a thickness of 1 to 3 mm,
  2. (b) the second leg (B) of the L-profile has a length of 10 to 100, preferably 30 to 60 mm, a width of 10 to 50, preferably 20 to 30 mm and a thickness of 1 to 3 mm,
  3. (C) the legs (A and B) are connected to each other over the longitudinal edge at a substantially right angle and thus form the L-profile,
  4. (d) the first leg (A) has two holes for receiving the two screws (I and II),
  5. (E) the second leg (B) has at least one bore for receiving a pin-shaped fastening device, and
  6. (F) the two screws (I and II) pierce the first leg (A) in such a way that the screw heads abut the second leg (B) and the screw necks protrude from the first leg (A) and as support points for the to be positioned Serve the purpose.

Mit Hilfe der beiden stufenlos höherverstellbaren Auflagepunkte können die zu befestigenden Objekte nach der Montage sowohl in der Höhe als auch seitlich verschoben und ins Lot gebracht werden. Auf diese Weise können insbesondere Bohrfehler leicht korrigiert werden, so dass ein Nachbohren und eine Beschädigung der Wand vermieden wird. Die Befestigungsvorrichtung ist mit Hilfe eines Nagels oder einer dritten Schraube mit Dübel einfach zu montieren. Die Aufhängung ist nach der Montage nicht mehr sichtbar, während das Objekt fest an der Wand anliegt. Auch das Anbringen von verschiedenen Objekten in gleicher Höhe ist auf diese Weise problemlos möglich. Ebenso erlaubt die Vorrichtung, die zu befestigenden Objekte einfach auszutauschen. Da sich die Vorrichtungen problemlos in hohen Stückzahlen zu niedrigen Kosten herstellen lassen, vereinigen sie deutlich mehr positive Eigenschaften auf sich als andere Vorrichtungen, die aus dem Stand der Technik zwar bekannt sind, aber nie den Weg in die industrielle Fertigung gefunden haben.With the help of the two steplessly adjustable support points, the objects to be fastened can be moved after assembly both in height and laterally and bracketed. In particular, drilling errors can be easily corrected in this way, so that re-drilling and damage to the wall is avoided. The fastening device is easy to install with the help of a nail or a third screw with dowels. The suspension is no longer visible after assembly, while the object rests firmly against the wall. Even the attachment of different objects in the same height is easily possible in this way. Likewise, the device allows easy to replace the objects to be fastened. Because the devices can be easily manufactured in high volumes at a low cost, they combine significantly more positive properties than other devices that are known in the art, but have never found their way into industrial manufacturing.

Bevorzugte Ausführungsformen der ErfindungPreferred embodiments of the invention

Nachdem die beiden Schenkel A und B über die Längskante verbunden sind, stimmen die Längen beider Schenkel in der Regel überein. Die Breite der beiden Schenkel ist hingegen regelmäßig verschieden, wobei der zweite Schenkel B, der in der Montage zur Wand weist, meistens etwa doppelt so breit ist, wie der erste Schenkel A, der die beiden Schrauben als Auflagepunkte für die zu befestigenden Objekte trägt. Die Breite des ersten Schenkels A richtet sich dabei nach den Maßen der Bilderrahmen, Regale, Spiegel und dergleichen.After the two legs A and B are connected via the longitudinal edge, the lengths of both legs usually match. The width of the two legs, however, is regularly different, the second leg B, which faces the wall in the assembly, is usually about twice as wide as the first leg A, which carries the two screws as support points for the objects to be fastened. The width of the first leg A depends on the dimensions of the picture frames, shelves, mirrors and the like.

Die Natur der Schraubenköpfe ist ein kritisches Merkmal, denn diese sollten nach Möglichkeit so ausgeprägt sein, dass sie am zweiten Schenkel B anliegen, so dass sie in jedem Fall noch gedreht werden können, denn auf diese Weise wird die Höhe und die waagerechte Neigung der Befestigungsvorrichtung eingestellt. Durch das Anliegen am Schenkel wird jedoch zusätzlich eine Stabilisierung der zu tragenden Last durch Kompensation des Kippmoments bewirkt.The nature of the screw heads is a critical feature, because they should if possible be so pronounced that they rest against the second leg B, so that they can still be rotated in any case, because in this way the height and the horizontal inclination of the fastening device set. Due to the abutment on the leg, however, a stabilization of the load to be supported is additionally caused by compensation of the overturning moment.

Das Material, aus dem die Befestigungsvorrichtung hergestellt wird, ist in weitem Umfang unkritisch. Typischerweise besteht das L-Profil aus Metall, Holz oder Kunststoff. Die Materialbeschaffenheit hat jedoch Einfluss auf die weiteren bevorzugten Ausgestaltungsformen. Wird das L-Profil aus Metall oder Holz angefertigt, werden die Schenkel A und B in der Regel getrennt angefertigt und dann über die Längskante verbunden, beispielsweise durch Schweißen oder verkleben. Die Anfertigung des L-Profils aus Kunststoff hat hingegen den Vorteil, dass die Vorrichtung als Ganzes - einschließlich der Bohrungen - im Spritzgussverfahren gefertigt werden kann, wesentlich leichter und zudem auch noch kostengünstiger ist. Auch bezüglich der Schrauben ist die Materialbeschaffenheit wenig kritisch. Natürlich bieten sich Schrauben aus Metall bzw. einer Metalllegierung an, die üblicherweise eine Länge von 3 bis 10, vorzugsweise 50 bis 70 mm und einen Durchmesser von 3 bis 8, vorzugsweise 5 bis 7 mm aufweisen. Dennoch sind auch Schrauben mit anderen Abmessungen nicht grundsätzlich ungeeignet.The material from which the fastening device is made is not critical to a large extent. Typically, the L-profile made of metal, wood or plastic. However, the nature of the material has an influence on the further preferred embodiments. If the L-profile made of metal or wood, the legs A and B are usually made separately and then connected over the longitudinal edge, for example by welding or gluing. The preparation of the L-profile made of plastic, however, has the advantage that the device as a whole - including the holes - can be made by injection molding, much easier and also more cost-effective. Also with regard to the screws, the material properties are not very critical. Of course, there are screws made of metal or a metal alloy, which usually have a length of 3 to 10, preferably 50 to 70 mm and a diameter of 3 to 8, preferably 5 to 7 mm. Nevertheless, screws with other dimensions are not fundamentally unsuitable.

Im Rahmen einer ersten bevorzugten Ausführungsform besteht das L-Profil aus Metall oder Holz. In diesem Fall weisen die Bohrungen im ersten Schenkel A Gewinde auf, deren Durchmesser denen der Schrauben I und II entspricht, so dass diese exakt passen. Sinnvollerweise wird man den Durchmesser der zu verwendenden Schrauben auf den Durchmesser der Bohrung anpassen und Schrauben mit einem metrischen Gewinde verwenden. Vorzugsweise werden metrische Gewinde eingesetzt, wenn das L-Profil aus Metall besteht.In a first preferred embodiment, the L-profile made of metal or wood. In this case, the holes in the first leg A thread on, whose diameter corresponds to those of the screws I and II, so that they fit exactly. It makes sense to adapt the diameter of the screws to be used to the diameter of the bore and to use screws with a metric thread. Preferably metric threads are used when the L-profile is made of metal.

In einer zweiten bevorzugten Ausführungsform besteht das L-Profil aus Kunststoff. In diesem Fall sind die Bohrungen im ersten Schenkel A gewindelos und weisen einen Durchmesser auf, der geringfügig kleiner als der Gewindedurchmesser, jedoch etwas größer als der Kern der Schrauben I und II ist. Der Vorteil dieser Ausführungsform besteht darin, dass nicht nur die Bohrungen gewindefrei sind, sondern auch Schrauben eingesetzt werden können, die kein metrisches Gewinde aufweisen, da auch herkömmliche Schrauben beim Eindrehen in die Bohrungen sich das Gewinde selbst schneiden. Dazu ist ebenfalls nur erforderlich, dass die Bohrung geringfügig kleiner als der Gewindedurchmesser, jedoch etwas größer als der Kern der Schrauben I und II ist.In a second preferred embodiment, the L-profile is made of plastic. In this case, the holes in the first leg A are unthreaded and have a diameter which is slightly smaller than the thread diameter, but slightly larger than the core of the screws I and II. The advantage of this embodiment is that not only the holes are thread-free, but also screws can be used that have no metric thread, as well as conventional screws when screwing into the holes cut the thread itself. This is also only required that the bore is slightly smaller than the thread diameter, but slightly larger than the core of the screws I and II.

Des Weiteren ist es unabhängig von den beschriebenen bevorzugten Ausführungsformen vorteilhaft, Schrauben zu verwenden, deren Hälse in einer Spitze auslaufen. Da die Schraubenhälse als Auflagepunkte für die zu befestigenden Objekte dienen wird der Halt bei Keilrahmen mit 45° Schrägung erheblich verbessert. Falls gewünscht, können die Schraubenspitzen auch in das zu befestigende Objekt eindringen und auf diesem Wege zu einer zusätzlichen Absturzsicherung führen. Das ist insbesondere dann zweckmäßig, wenn es sich bei diesen Objekten um Bilderrahmen handelt. Bilderahmen weisen üblicherweise einen rechten Winkel auf, d.h. der Rahmen ruht lotrecht auf den Auflagepunkten. Man kann die Absturzsicherung verbessern, wenn man in den Rahmen eine Dreikantleiste einfügt, so dass ein Winkel von 45° gebildet wird und die Auflagepunkte in diesen Winkel hineinragen.Furthermore, it is advantageous, independent of the described preferred embodiments, to use screws whose necks terminate in a point. Since the screw necks serve as support points for the objects to be fastened, the support for stretcher frames with a 45 ° bevel is significantly improved. If desired, the screw tips can also penetrate into the object to be fastened and in this way lead to an additional fall protection. This is particularly useful when these objects are picture frames. Picture frames usually have a right angle, i. the frame rests vertically on the support points. You can improve the fall protection, if you insert a triangular strip in the frame, so that an angle of 45 ° is formed and the support points protrude into this angle.

Die Bohrung bzw. die Bohrungen im zweiten Schenkel B dienen dazu, Nägel oder Schrauben aufzunehmen, mit denen die Befestigungsvorrichtung an der Wand angebracht werden kann; der Durchmesser dieser Bohrungen muss dazu entsprechend abgestimmt sein. Üblicherweise wird man mit einer Bohrung auskommen, wenn jedoch Befestigungsvorrichtungen eingesetzt werden, die über eine sehr lange Längskante verfügen, kann es sinnvoll sein, zwei Bohrlöcher einzufügen. Mit einer solchen Ausführungsform lassen sich auch kritische Abschnitte in der Wand, hinter denen beispielsweise stromführende Leitungen vermutet werden, problemlos überbrücken. Infolge der hohen Stabilität können die Vorrichtungen auch entfernt und später an anderer Stelle wiederverwendet werden.The bore or holes in the second leg B serve to receive nails or screws with which the fastening device can be attached to the wall; The diameter of these holes must be adjusted accordingly. Usually you will get along with a hole, but if fasteners are used, which have a very long longitudinal edge, it may be useful to insert two holes. With such an embodiment, critical sections in the wall, behind which, for example, current-carrying lines are suspected, can be bridged easily. Due to the high stability, the devices can also be removed and later reused elsewhere.

Die Befestigungsvorrichtungen können zudem sehr leicht auf der Wand positioniert werden, indem man eine durchsichtige Kunststofffolie mit metrischen Markierungen verwendet. Handelt es sich bei dem zu befestigenden Objekt beispielsweise um einen Bilderrahmen, so misst man mit der Markierungsfolie dessen Breite, hält die Folie an die Wand, an der das Objekt befestigt werden soll und braucht bei der Markierung der Bohrung nur noch den Betrag abzuziehen, der der Rahmenbreite entspricht.The fasteners can also be very easily positioned on the wall using a clear plastic film with metric markings. If the object to be fastened is, for example, a picture frame, the width of the marking film is measured, the film is held against the wall to which the object is to be fastened and only needs to be deducted when marking the hole the frame width corresponds.

Ein weiterer Gegenstand der Erfindung ist schließlich auf ein Kit gerichtet, bestehend aus mindestens einer erfindungsgemäßen Befestigungsvorrichtung, mindestens einer dritten Schraube und mindestens einem zur Schraube passsenden Dübel, wobei die Schraube einen Durchmesser entsprechend der Bohrung im zweiten Schenkel B der Befestigungsvorrichtung aufweist, so dass der Verbraucher alles zur Hand hat, um die Befestigungsvorrichtung direkt an der Wand anzubringen. Den Kits können auch Dreiecksprofile aus Holz oder Kunststoff beigefügt werden, die in einen rechtwinklige Keilrahmen eingeklebt werden, um auf diese Weise ein Dreikantprofil zu erzeugen, so dass die Stabilität der Aufhängung unter Nutzung der erfindungsgemäßen Befestigungsvorrichtungen wie oben geschildert verbessert wird. Des Weiteren können die Kits eine Folie, vorzugsweise eine Klarsichtfolie, mit metrischer Einteilung enthalten, die zum Anzeichnen von Abständen auf der Wand hilfreich ist.Another object of the invention is finally directed to a kit consisting of at least one fastening device according to the invention, at least one third screw and at least one screw to dowel, wherein the screw has a diameter corresponding to the bore in the second leg B of the fastening device, so that the Consumer has everything at hand to attach the mounting device directly to the wall. The kits may also be fitted with triangular profiles of wood or plastic which are glued into a rectangular stretcher to produce a triangular profile so as to improve the stability of the suspension using the fastening devices of the present invention as described above. In addition, the kits may include a foil, preferably a metric graduated sheeting, useful for marking distances on the wall.

Durch die einfache Geometrie könne die Befestigungsvorrichtungen sehr einfach verpackt werden, beispielsweise in einer mit einem Pappdeckel verschlossenen Klarsichtschachtel, wie sie aus dem Markt beispielsweise für Dübel bekannt sind.The simple geometry of the fastening devices can be very easily packaged, for example, in a closed box with a cardboard box, as they are known from the market, for example for dowels.

Die Erfindung wird im Folgenden durch Abbildungen 1 bis 3 näher erläutert.The invention is explained in more detail below by Figures 1 to 3.
