Description

[0001] The invention relates to a frame holder, in particular a flange, for a stall box for livestock, especially cows. The frame holder comprises a tube and a support plate, which is connected to the tube, in particular to an end face of the tube, in particular by a material bond. The support plate is designed to be attached to an object, in particular a flat one, and the tube is designed to receive an end section of a frame, the frame being designed to create a spatial boundary for the stall box.

[0002] From DE 200 01 300 U1 a cubicle for animal stalls is known in which a cubicle divider bar leads into a mounting flange for attachment to a stall wall.

[0003] According to the invention, the tube has at least one gap extending at least partially along its longitudinal axis, such that a clamping jaw, clamping tongue, or tube leg, particularly a resilient one, is formed within the tube by means of the gap. The tube has at least one or only one opening for a bolt, particularly a transverse bolt, which in particular penetrates the tube diametrically. The bolt, in particular the transverse bolt, is arranged such that the clamping jaw, clamping tongue, or tube leg can be moved at least partially inwards—in particular radially into a cavity enclosed by the tube—by means of the transverse bolt, so that the end section of the bracket is held in a frictional position within the tube, in particular in the cavity enclosed by the tube, by means of the clamping jaw, clamping tongue, or tube leg. Advantageously, the bracket can thus be attached cost-effectively by means of the bracket holder.

[0004] The object is, for example, a stable wall or a post. This allows the bracket to be attached easily and without much effort using the bracket holder.

[0005] Preferably the gap extends to an end face of the pipe, and is preferably open there.

[0006] The tube preferably has, in the area of ​​the gap, and more preferably on the longitudinal section on which the at least one gap is formed, an opening for a bolt, in particular a transverse bolt, which penetrates the tube in a diametrical manner, wherein the tube is designed such that the at least one gap can be closed at least partially or completely by means of the bolt, so that the end section of the bracket is held at least force-fit by means of the tube legs.

[0007] The bracket, particularly a plastic bracket, preferably has an opening or through-hole for the bolt, through which the bolt can be inserted. Advantageously, the bracket is thus additionally held in place by the bolt in a positive-locking manner, particularly secured against being moved out of the tube. The bolt can thus secure the end section of the bracket in the tube both by friction and by positive locking.

[0008] Preferably, two clamping jaws – particularly those spring-loaded in the circumferential direction – are formed in the tube by means of only one gap along the longitudinal extent of the gap. These jaws can be moved towards each other by means of the bolt, thereby reducing the gap width of the gap(s) and clamping the end section of the clamp between them. Advantageously, a sufficient clamping effect can be achieved with only one gap in this way.

[0009] Preferably, the tube has two slots extending along its longitudinal axis. The slots are preferably of equal length along the tube's longitudinal axis. The slots thus divide the tube longitudinally into two, in particular, channel-shaped tube legs, each forming a clamping element for holding the end section. Advantageously, this design effectively compensates for tolerances in the clamp diameter.

[0010] The two slits are preferably arranged diametrically opposite each other along the circumference of the pipe, so that the opposing grooves formed by the slits each constitute one half of the pipe. Preferably, the slits are of the same length along the longitudinal extent of the pipe. This advantageously creates a torsion-free clamping effect between the two pipe legs.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, the tube has at least two slots formed along its longitudinal extent. In the embodiment with more than two slots, several grooves or tube segments are formed along the tube's longitudinal extent, depending on the number of slots. These grooves or segments can be moved towards each other by means of at least one bolt or several bolts, thus clamping the end section of the stirrup firmly between them. Each groove can form a tube leg for holding the end section of the stirrup. Advantageously, this design can effectively compensate for tolerances in the stirrup diameter.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment, the at least one gap is tapered towards the support plate. This advantageously allows for the compensation of tolerances in the yoke diameter by means of a bolt compressive stress on the pipe legs or the clamping jaws. Furthermore, the tapered gap advantageously allows for the fixation of a plastically deformed yoke end section or one that has loosened within the pipe, provided that the pipe legs or clamping jaws can be further tightened by means of the bolt.

[0013] In an advantageous embodiment, the at least one gap is formed straight along at least one longitudinal section of the pipe along its longitudinal axis. Advantageously, the gap can thus be easily created, for example, by sawing.

[0014] In an advantageous embodiment of the bracket, at least one gap is arc-shaped, curved, or meandering. This allows for easier deformation of the tube leg, particularly in the area of ​​a curve.

[0015] Preferably, the gap is formed in a wave-like shape, at least along its longitudinal section. This allows areas to be formed on the tube legs in the region of the wave antinodes, which can be clamped more effectively for securing the clamping end section than with a straight gap. For this purpose, a tab formed by a wave antinode can be shaped inwards towards the interior of the tube, in particular bent inwards, so that when the clamping legs are tightened, the clamp can be pressed into the clamp by means of the tab. The wave shape can be, for example, a sinusoidal shape, a sawtooth shape, or a triangular shape.

[0016] In another advantageous embodiment, the gap is U-shaped, so that a clamping tongue, preferably resilient, is formed in the tube. Preferably, two opposing clamping tongues, preferably resilient, are formed in the tube, enclosing the cavity enclosed by the tube between them. The opening for the bolt is preferably formed in the clamping tongue. For this purpose, the bolt, preferably a screw bolt, passing through the clamping tongues is designed to move the clamping tongues towards each other. Advantageously, the bracket can thus be clamped in the tube by means of the clamping tongues.

[0017] In another embodiment, the bolt is an eccentric bolt which has an eccentric lever rotatably connected to the bolt, the eccentric lever being supported against the tube and thus able to exert a tensile force on the bolt. Advantageously, this allows the clamping of the bracket to be achieved without screws.

[0018] In a preferred embodiment, projections, particularly protrusions, are formed on the inner wall of the tube, extending radially into a cavity enclosed by the tube. More preferably, these projections are designed to penetrate at least partially or completely into the end section of the clamp, particularly when the tube legs, clamping jaws, or clamping tongues are tightened. This advantageously creates an additional positive locking mechanism for securing the end section of the clamp. The projections are preferably made of a harder material than the end section of the clamp. The end section of the clamp, or the entire clamp, is preferably made of plastic. The tube and / or the projections are preferably made of metal, particularly steel or stainless steel.

[0019] Preferably, the projecting areas have metal particles molten onto the inner wall of the tube or are formed by metal particles applied to or molten onto the inner wall of the tube. Advantageously, the projecting areas can be formed in a cost-effective manner. The projections are preferably rounded, more preferably tapered towards the end, or pointed. In another embodiment, the projections are pyramidal, dome-shaped, or parabolic.

[0020] The protruding areas are applied to the inner wall of the pipe, for example, by thermal spraying, in particular plasma spraying, or by cladding welding, or brazing, in particular brazing or electrical discharge machining (EDM). In another embodiment, the protruding areas are produced by cold forming, in particular embossing.

[0021] In a preferred embodiment, the protruding areas are produced by laser welding or laser electrical discharge machining (EDM). Advantageously, the protruding areas can be produced in this way with low effort.

[0022] The length of the projecting areas, in particular the radial extension from the inner wall of the tube into the cavity, is preferably up to one millimeter, more preferably up to 0.5 millimeters.

[0023] In a preferred embodiment, the bracket holder, in particular the tube, is made of stainless steel or is formed from stainless steel. It is further preferred that the gap is created by means of a laser such that metal particles and / or slag particles, molten by the laser beams, are bonded to the inner wall of the tube, in particular by means of a metallurgical bond, thus forming the projecting areas.

[0024] Advantageously, the protruding areas can be created cost-effectively during laser cutting, specifically during the creation of the gap using the laser beams. It has been observed that during laser cutting or laser EDM of stainless steel, the liquefied pipe material removed to form the gap is advantageously deposited on the inner pipe wall. This allows the protruding areas to be created during the gap creation step itself, providing additional anchorage for the end section of the stirrup.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, the support plate has a pin which, in particular along the longitudinal extent of the tube, extends into the cavity enclosed by the tube to receive the end section of the stirrup. Advantageously, this pin can engage with an end face of the stirrup end section, and thus with one end of the stirrup, thereby additionally fixing the stirrup in the tube.

[0026] Preferably, the bracket has a plastic coating, and the protruding areas are designed to press into the plastic material, thus holding the bracket firmly and additionally form-fit in the tube.

[0027] Preferably, the plastic material of the bracket is a thermoplastic, in particular polyamide, polyethylene, polypropylene, ABS (ABS = acrylonitrile butadiene styrene), PES (PES = polyethylene sulfide), PPS (PPS = polypropylene sulfide), PET (PET = polyethylene terephthalate), PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate) or a combination of the aforementioned plastics.

[0028] Preferably, the inner diameter of the tube is between 4 and 7 centimeters, more preferably between 4.5 and 5.5 centimeters, or 5 centimeters. The thickness of the tube wall is preferably between 4 and 6 millimeters, more preferably 5 millimeters. The length of the tube is preferably between 15 and 35 centimeters, more preferably between 20 and 30 centimeters. The length of the gap along the longitudinal extent is preferably between one-third and three-quarters of the tube length. The gap width is preferably between one millimeter and six millimeters, more preferably between three millimeters and six millimeters. The tapered gap preferably has a gap width at the tapered end that is half the gap width at the open end.

[0029] For example, the bracket can have at least one plastic core and a plastic sheath that encloses the plastic core. The plastic core and the plastic sheath can each be made of the same type of plastic mentioned above, or of different types of plastic mentioned above.

[0030] The invention also relates to a partition bar for a stall, in particular a cubicle for livestock. The partition bar has at least one bar holder of the type described above, and a bar, preferably a plastic bar or a bar with a plastic coating, wherein an end section of the bar is fixed in the tube of the bar holder. Preferably, the end section is firmly clamped in the tube – in particular by means of a bolt.

[0031] The bolt is preferably a screw bolt comprising a screw, in particular a carriage bolt, in which a square is formed on a longitudinal section, which can engage in a corresponding square opening in the tube in a rotationally fixed manner. More preferably, the bolt comprises a clamping nut by means of which the clamping tongues or clamping jaws can be clamped together to clamp the end section of the bracket, thereby reducing the gap width.

[0032] The invention also relates to a fastening system for attaching a bar for a stable box. The fastening system comprises at least one bar holder of the type described above, and a bolt, preferably a screw bolt, in particular a carriage bolt.

[0033] The bolt is designed to press the clamping tongues, clamping jaws, or pipe legs of the bracket together, thus reducing the gap separating the pipe legs, clamping jaws, or clamping tongues during compression. The bolt is preferably a steel bolt, in particular a stainless steel bolt.

[0034] In a preferred embodiment, the support plate extends, particularly with its planar extent, transversely to the longitudinal extent of the tube. The tube is preferably designed as a hollow cylinder, with the longitudinal extent of the tube extending transversely to the circular tube cross-section. The clamping tongue can thus be moved at least partially radially inward into the cavity and pressed there against an end section of the bracket received in the cavity.

[0035] In another embodiment, the tube has a cross-section corresponding to the stirrup cross-section, for example a polygonal cross-section.

[0036] The support plate is preferably bonded to the pipe, in particular to one end face of the pipe. The bond is preferably a weld, a brazed joint, or a bolted joint. The weld is produced, for example, by resistance inert gas welding, laser welding, oxy-fuel welding, or electrode welding.

[0037] The support plate preferably has at least one, or only one, recess designed to engage a projecting area, in particular a nose molded onto the tube. This advantageously allows the positioning of the tube relative to the support plate to be defined.

[0038] The pipe has the nose preferably on its end face, allowing it to be easily joined to the support plate by inserting the nose into the recess in the support plate. The pipe can then be welded to the support plate.

[0039] In the embodiment with the screw connection, the pipe has a threaded plate connected to it transversely to its longitudinal axis, and in particular located within the pipe's cavity. This threaded plate has a screw thread for a bolt connected to the support plate. This allows the support plate to be easily screwed to the pipe, thus forming the bracket holder.

[0040] The shackle holder is preferably made of stainless steel. The steel preferably contains chromium, nickel, molybdenum, titanium, niobium, tungsten, vanadium, or cobalt, or a combination of the aforementioned elements. Preferably, the shackle holder is made of chromium-nickel steel or chromium-vanadium steel.

[0041] In another embodiment, the bracket holder is made of plastic, in particular fiber-reinforced plastic. The plastic is, for example, a resin, especially epoxy resin. The fibers of the fiber-reinforced plastic are, for example, glass fibers or carbon fibers.

[0042] The invention will now be explained below with reference to figures and further exemplary embodiments. Further advantageous embodiments will become apparent from the features described in the dependent claims and in the figures. Fig. Figure 1 shows an embodiment of a stable box which has a bar with a bar holder which is attached to a post; Fig. Figure 2 shows an embodiment of a bracket holder with a split tube which has projection areas on an inner tube wall with which an end section of a bracket can be clamped; Fig. 3 shows the one in Fig. 2 bracket holders shown in a top view of the open end face of the tube; Fig. Figure 4 shows an embodiment of a bracket holder with a corrugated, slit tube with which an end section of a bracket can be clamped; Fig. Figure 5 shows an embodiment of a bracket holder with a U-shaped gap in the tube wall, by means of which a clamping tongue is formed in the tube wall to hold an end section of a bracket.

[0043] Fig. Figure 1 shows – schematically – an embodiment of a stall 3. The stall 3 has a frame 4 for dividing the stall space for livestock. The stall 3 also has a post 17, which is fixed in a floor 18 of the stall. The frame 4 is firmly connected to the post 17 by means of a frame holder 1. The post thus forms an object to which the frame holder is connected. The frame 4 is also connected to the post 17 by means of another frame holder 2. The frame 4 has an end section 5, which is received in a cavity enclosed by the frame holder 1. The frame holder 1 has a tube 6 designed to receive and clamp the end section 5.

[0044] In this embodiment, the pipe 6 has two gaps extending along a longitudinal extent of the pipe 6, of which the gap 8 is in Fig. 1 is visibly shown. The gap divides the tube along its longitudinal extent into two channel-shaped tube legs, which are pressed together by a bolt, in particular a screw bolt, passing transversely through the tube 6, so that the end section 5 with its longitudinal dimension 60 is firmly clamped in the bracket holder 1.

[0045] In this embodiment, the tube 6 is connected to a support plate 7, which is screwed to the post by means of screws and a counter plate 16. The post 17 is thus firmly clamped between the support plate 7 and the counter plate 16, whereby the bracket 4 is detachably connected to the post by means of the bracket holder 1.

[0046] In this embodiment, the bracket holder 1 also has a bolt 9, in particular a transverse bolt, which is designed to compress the tube 6 in the area of ​​the gap 8 and to clamp the end section 5 with a longitudinal extension 8 so firmly.

[0047] Fig. Figure 1 also shows a further bracket 2, where both brackets 2 are formed to receive and hold a further end section 12 of the bracket 4. The bracket 2 has a tube 19 in which at least one gap 11 is formed, so that the tube 19 can be compressed in the area of ​​the gap 11 by means of a transverse bolt 10 passing diametrically through the tube 19, so that the end section 12 of the bracket 4 is clamped in the bracket 2. The bracket 2 has a support plate 14 connected to the tube 19, in particular by a material bond. The support plate 14 is screwed to the post 17 by means of screws that extend into the post, one of which is designated as screw 15 by way of example. In this embodiment, the transverse bolt 10 is formed as a screw bolt and has a screw nut 13 by means of which the tube 19 can be clamped in the area of ​​the gap 11.

[0048] The hanger holder 2 can be used differently than in Fig. Figure 1 shows how the bracket holder 1 can be attached to the post 17 by means of a counter plate, or both bracket holders can be screwed to the post.

[0049] Post 17, for example, is formed by a square tube or a concrete post.

[0050] In this embodiment, the bracket 4 is a U-shaped bracket which has two bracket end sections, each of which can be attached to a post or a stable wall by means of a bracket holder.

[0051] Fig. Figure 2 shows – schematically – an embodiment of a bracket holder 20. The bracket holder 20 has a tube 21, which in this embodiment is a steel tube made of stainless steel. The tube 21 has two slots along its longitudinal extent 37, one of which slots 22 are in Fig. Figure 1 shows the gap 22 dividing the tube 21 into two, in particular, trough-shaped tube legs 26 and 27, which can be pressed together by means of the bolt 30 that diametrically penetrates the tube 21, thus narrowing the gap 22. In this embodiment, the gap 22 has a tapered width starting at an end face 39 of the tube and extending along the longitudinal extent 32 of the gap along the longitudinal extent 37 of the tube. The gap width 24 in the region of the end face of the tube, where an end section of a bracket can be inserted into the tube 21, is thus larger than a gap width 25 in the region of a tapered end of the gap 22. The gap 22 extends to the end face 39 of the tube 21 and is open there.

[0052] Fig. Figure 2 also shows – as a variant of the bracket holder 20 – a particularly circular opening 23 in the wall of the tube 21, depicted with dashed lines, into which the gap 22 opens with its particularly tapered end. This can form a joint for resiliently compressing the tube legs 26 and 27. The bracket holder 20 can be designed with or without the opening 23.

[0053] The bolt 30, which in this embodiment is formed as a carriage bolt with a square section, can be tightened by means of a screw nut 31 after passing through an opening 28 and a further opening 29 formed in the tube 21 in relation to the opening 28, in such a way that the tube legs 26 and 27 can be pressed together resiliently, reducing the gap width of the gap 22. With the tapered gap 22, the tube 21 has a tolerance compensation for brackets with variable bracket diameter.

[0054] The bracket holder 20 has a support plate 33 which – in this embodiment – ​​is metallurgically connected to the tube 21 by means of a weld 34. The support plate 33 is arranged transversely to the longitudinal extent 37 of the tube.

[0055] The support plate 33 has openings for screwing the bracket holder in place, one of which is designated 35. In this embodiment, opening 35 is designed as a rectangular through-hole. In another embodiment, the opening can be designed as a circular through-hole.

[0056] The bracket 20 has projecting areas 38 formed on the inner wall of the tube 21, which are integrally formed on the inner wall of the tube and are metallurgically bonded to it. The projecting areas 38 are produced by laser processing, in particular by laser cutting the gap 22 in the tube 21, and are deposited as molten tube material on the inner wall of the tube 21 and are firmly fused there, in particular by metallurgical bonding to it.

[0057] Fig. Figure 3 shows - schematically - the in Fig. 2. The bracket holder shown is in a top view of the front face 39. An end section of a bracket, for example the one in Fig. The end section 5 of the bracket 4, as shown in Figure 1, can be received through the tube opening on the end face 39. The tube 21 has two slots 22 and 36, which are diametrically opposed to each other. The projecting areas 38 on the inner wall of the tube 21 can firmly engage with the end section 5 of the bracket, particularly a plastic bracket, when the tube legs 26 and 27 move towards each other, thus securing the bracket securely in the bracket holder.

[0058] Fig. Figure 4 shows – schematically – a variant for a bracket holder 40. The bracket holder 40 has a tube 41, one end of which is connected to a support plate 48, and the opposite end of which has an opening for inserting an end section of a bracket. A corrugated, particularly sinusoidal, gap 42 is formed in the tube 41, especially in the tube wall 41, the course of which is essentially along a longitudinal extension 49 of the tube 41. The tube has two diametrically opposed openings 45 and 46 through which a bolt can be passed, so that the tube legs 43 and 44, separated by the gap 42, can be moved towards each other, particularly resiliently. A tab 47 is formed by the corrugation in the tube wall in the region of a wave antinode, particularly on a concave side of the gap 42.In one variant of the bracket holder 40, the tab is bent at an angle into the cavity enclosed by the tube 41, so that a bracket with a smaller diameter can be contacted by the tab 47 when the tube legs 43 and 44 are clamped together, thus additionally securing the bracket in the area of ​​the angled tab. The angle between the tab 47 and the tube wall surrounding the tab 47 is, for example, between 1 and 10 degrees, or between 2 and 5 degrees.

[0059] Fig. Figure 5 shows – schematically – an embodiment of a bracket holder 50. The bracket holder 50 has a tube 51 which is connected to a support plate 58 at its end face. The tube 51 has a U-shaped gap 52 along its longitudinal extent 57, which penetrates a tube wall of the tube 51 – in particular forming a U-shaped opening. The legs 55 and 56 of the U-shaped gap 52 each have a longitudinal component, in particular a predominant one, extending in the direction of the longitudinal extent 57 of the tube 51.

[0060] By means of the gap 52, a clamping tongue 53 extending along the longitudinal extent 57 of the tube is formed, with which an end section of a bracket can be clamped in the tube 51. A through-hole 54, for example a bore, is formed in the clamping tongue 53, through which a transverse bolt, in particular a screw bolt, can be passed, and the clamping tongue 53 can be pressed into the interior of the tube into the cavity enclosed by the tube 51. Two opposing clamping tongues, in particular each formed by means of a U-shaped gap, can be formed in the tube wall of the bracket holder 50, each having an opening for the bolt, which can be passed through both clamping tongues. The clamping tongues can thus be pressed together by means of the bolt and clamp an end section of a bracket enclosed between the clamping tongues.

[0061] In another - in Fig.In the embodiment not shown in section 5, the clamping tongue is designed to run along the circumference of a tube.

[0062] The end section of a bracket received in the tube 51 can thus be held in the tube by means of the clamping tongues in a force-fit manner, and additionally in a form-fit manner by means of the bolt passing through it. QUOTES INCLUDED IN THE DESCRIPTION
