Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present invention relates to a shelf for a means of transport, such as a motor vehicle, an aircraft or a rail vehicle, in particular to a shelf integrated into a side lining of a door of a means of transport, for example a map pocket. BACKGROUND

[0002] Various different designs are known for shelves for motor vehicles, in which the shelf is integrated into a side lining of a door, for example. In general, an in-vehicle shelf must satisfy two core requirements. On the one hand, the shelf should have as large a volume as possible, but on the other hand it should also require as little installation space as possible.

[0003] In order to adequately satisfy this mutually conflicting requirement, it is known to provide a shelf with a variable volume, so that the interior space of the shelf is adjustable, so that it only occupies a large amount of installation space in the full, in particular, state.

[0004] DE 102011088377 describes an adjustable shelf for a motor vehicle, which has a partially elastic rod. It forms an element which delimits the interior space of the shelf. Here, a first end of the rod is fixed in a bearing, wherein a second end of the rod is movable in a second bearing. The rod can be transferred from a non-use position into at least one use position, wherein the rod changes its contour and expands the interior space of the shelf in the deformed case.

[0005] DE 202015101858, DE 102016102903 and EP 1861289 B1 each disclose an adjustable shelf for a means of transport or a motor vehicle, which has an elastic element which, in the deformed case, allows the storage volume of the respective interior space of the shelf to be adjusted or changed.

[0006] These adjustable shelves of the prior art adapt the shelf interior space volume to the objects stored in the shelf by means of their respective elastic element. Although these known adjustable shelves initially ensure a satisfactory balance between the provided volume of the respective shelf and the required installation space, brittle or fragile objects in these shelves are in particular subjected to the restoring force of the elastic element and can thereby be damaged.

[0007] Furthermore, the known adjustable shelves designed with an elastic element for adjusting and delimiting the interior space always have at least a partially circular or rounded profile in their cross section as a result of the elastic deformation of the elastic element. The storage of objects which are essentially rectangular is therefore particularly inefficient in terms of making full use of the storage space provided here.

[0008] It is furthermore known that the elastic element can become brittle, lose its elasticity and possibly become inoperable, in particular when it is kept in a prescribed stressed position or attitude of the known adjustable shelf for a long time. SUMMARY

[0009] It is therefore an object of the present application to provide an adjustable shelf using structurally as simple means as possible, which combines reliable and durable use with optimum use of the storage space.

[0010] This task is accomplished by the subject matter of the independent claims. Advantageous refinements of the application are specified in the dependent claims, the description and the figures.

[0011] The shelf for a means of transport according to the application comprises a wall part and a holding part. The wall part comprises a first part and a second part. Here, the first part is at least partially mounted in a first guide mechanism of the holding part. Furthermore, the first part can be locked in a defined manner within the guide mechanism by means of at least one latching element. By means of the locking of the latching element, opening or closing of the shelf is ensured by movement of the first part and / or the second part. The wall part serves, inter alia, to at least partially delimit an interior space of the shelf. The holding part can also at least partially delimit the interior space of the shelf. The first part is mounted in the guide mechanism and can be locked by means of the at least one latching element. This means that the first part is at least partially moved in the guide mechanism and can be locked in its movement at at least one, preferably a plurality of positions defined by the latching element. For example, the first part can be moved along a plane defined by the first guide mechanism and locked in an open position and a closed position by means of the latching element.

[0012] Alternatively, it can also be provided that the latching element is only used to guide the first part in the first guide mechanism. In this case, the shelf preferably comprises a separate locking mechanism which locks the possible positions of the first part relative to the holding part.

[0013] By dividing the wall part at least into a first part and a second part, the different parts of the wall part can be used for different purposes. Thus, the first part can be primarily provided for being guided within the guide mechanism in the holding part in order to change the position or attitude of the wall part relative to the holding part. In contrast, the second part can be primarily used to delimit the interior space of the shelf.

[0014] In a preferred embodiment of the application, the parts comprised by the wall part are mechanically connected to one another, so that, for example, the first part follows the movement of the second part, or vice versa.

[0015] One or all of the mechanical connections between the two parts can here be realized in a force-locking, form-locking and / or material-bonding manner, are preferably designed in a movable manner and can be detachable and non-detachable.

[0016] Preferably, the mechanical connections are all designed to be identical, for example all as material-bonding connections, where, of course, it is not ruled out that different mechanical connections can also be implemented between different parts of the mutual connection of the wall elements.

[0017] It can be provided in particular that the shelf has a symmetrical design. Accordingly, the shelf can also comprise a third part. Here, the third part is designed identically to the first part. The holding element thus also has a second guide mechanism, in which the third part is mounted. To this end, the holding element can be designed as a component comprising a first guide mechanism and a second guide mechanism, or two holding elements can also be provided, each comprising a guide mechanism.

[0018] It can be provided that the catch element is arranged on or formed on the guide mechanism. Alternatively, it is also possible that the catch element is provided on or formed by the first part.

[0019] It can be provided in an embodiment of the shelf that the second part is mounted within the holding element in such a way that the second part can be lifted and thus allows the connected first part to be displaced in the guide mechanism relative to the catch element as desired.

[0020] In particular, the second part can be mounted in a holder within the holding element in a locked position or an unlocked position. By means of, for example, a linear guide, the second part can be moved back and forth between these two positions. As long as the second part is in the locked position, the first part connected thereto cannot be moved relative to the catch element. If the second part is now brought from the locked position into the unlocked position by lifting along the guide mechanism within the holding element, movement of the first part is permitted.

[0021] According to an embodiment of the application, at least one further part is arranged between the first part and the second part. It can be provided in particular that exactly one further part is arranged as a connecting part between the first part and the second part. It can be provided here that these parts are each mechanically connected to one another in such a way that a movable connection between these parts can be carried out when the shelf is opened or closed. It is provided accordingly that the first part is mechanically connected to the connecting part and the second part is also mechanically connected to the connecting part, so that the first part is mechanically connected to the second part via the connecting part.

[0022] Here, the first part can have a recess, in which the catch element can move in a defined manner. The recess in the first part serves here to define a guide chute with its contour, along which the first part can be moved relative to the catch element. Here, the catch element serves as a guide, which moves along the contour of the guide chute defined by the recess, thus ensuring that the first part moves according to the guide chute.

[0023] In a particularly simple embodiment, the recess is designed, for example, as a linear slot. The catch here can be a pin. The first part can thus only perform a linear movement, while its movement is limited by the pin abutting against the respective end of the guide slot. In this embodiment, the "catch abutting against an end of the guide slot" will accordingly define the locking position in which the first part is held by the catch. The first end of the guide slot can here define a first position in which the shelf is open, and the second end of the guide slot can define a second position in which the shelf is closed.

[0024] In an alternative design, the guide slot can be designed at least partially substantially as a partial circle. Other designs of the guide slot are also covered by the inventive concept.

[0025] According to a further embodiment of the shelf, the first part or the second part can be raised, so that the first part can be moved as intended within the guide mechanism relative to the catch. This means that the mobility of the first part relative to the catch is initially blocked, and that the first part can be moved as intended within the guide mechanism relative to the catch when this movement is permitted. In particular, this blocking can be produced mechanically, for example by interlocking or wedge-shaped geometries. The raising of the first part or the second part here serves to release this mechanical blocking. The shelf is thus secured against unintentional displacement of the wall.

[0026] In a further embodiment, the shapes of the parts are matched to one another such that the second part can be moved as intended and the shelf can thus be opened or closed as intended.

[0027] In the sense of the invention, the matching of the shapes of the parts means that the shapes of the parts are chosen such that the movement of each part is transmitted to the other parts, so that all parts move in coordination with one another in order to open or close the shelf.

[0028] Shape preferably means a shape which can be described in two dimensions, for example a triangle or a square, which substantially describes the design of the part. However, it is not excluded that a three-dimensional shape can also be defined in order to ensure that the shelf is opened or closed as intended.

[0029] In a preferred embodiment, a further part is provided in addition to the first part and the second part, wherein the second part can have a trapezoidal shape and the further part can be designed as a connecting part and have a triangular shape. One of the side lengths of the trapezoidal shape of the second part corresponds to one of the side lengths of the triangular shape of the connecting part, wherein the tip of the triangular shape of the connecting part points towards the longest side of the trapezoidal shape of the second part. In this embodiment, the second part is connected with its base to the holder. The second part is also connected with one of its arms to a first side of the connecting part. The first part is connected to a second side of the connecting part and is partially mounted in the first guide mechanism of the holder.

[0030] A first axis extending through the first side of the connecting portion, a second axis extending through the second side of the connecting portion and a third axis extending through the bottom of the second portion have a common intersection point here.

[0031] According to this embodiment, the shelf of the application is opened accordingly in such a way that the second portion is tilted about its bottom relative to the holder, i.e. about the third axis. This movement of the second portion causes the connecting portion to be tilted accordingly relative to the holder. Due to its triangular shape, the connecting portion is also twisted about the angle bisector extending through the common intersection point between its first side and its second side. This twisting causes the connecting portion to be tilted relative to the second portion and in the opposite direction relative to the first portion.

[0032] It thus forms a stepped arrangement of the three portions relative to one another in cross section.

[0033] In this case, the first portion is accordingly partially withdrawn from the first guide mechanism supporting it to follow the second side of the connecting portion displaced as a result of the said tilting.

[0034] Overall, the movements of the portions during opening can be described as follows: the second portion is tilted forwards, the connecting portion follows the second portion and at the same time twists, the first portion follows the connecting portion and is partially pulled out of the guide mechanism.

[0035] A second connecting portion is included in the symmetrical design of the shelf. The second connecting portion is designed here to be identical to the first connecting portion and is arranged between the second portion and the third portion.

[0036] In another possible embodiment, at least the second portion and the connecting portion can of course also have other shapes.

[0037] For example, embodiments are also conceivable in which the second portion has a triangular shape and the connecting portion has a trapezoidal shape.

[0038] For example, it can also be provided that the connecting portion has a bellows-like design. The connecting portion thus has a deformable body which allows the corresponding relative movement of the second portion to open or close the shelf.

[0039] Embodiments are also conceivable in which the individual portions of the wall of the shelf are not connected to one another in the form of a surface but only substantially in the form of points. A portion can accordingly form a side which is at least partially circular in shape, with which side it is connected to another portion. In such embodiments, the area between the portions or adjacent to the connection of the two portions can be at least partially filled or covered by a deformable material, for example a fabric, so that the wall of the shelf is accordingly substantially continuously closed.

[0040] A further alternative embodiment can comprise that the second portion is designed as a parallelogram. Analogously to the embodiment with the second portion having a trapezoidal shape and the connecting portion having a triangular shape, the connecting portion is here also preferably designed as a triangle. The movement chain of the individual portions upon opening or closing is accordingly also equivalent to the embodiment with the second portion having a trapezoidal shape and the connecting portion having a triangular shape. The main difference between the embodiment with the second portion being a parallelogram and the embodiment with the second portion being a trapezoid is that a symmetry of the entire shelf cannot be produced in the embodiment with the second portion being a parallelogram.

[0041] In a further embodiment of the application, an elastically deformable connecting piece is arranged between the at least first portion and the second portion or between the first portion and the further portion, such that a hinged relative movement is achieved between the at least first portion and the second portion or between the first portion and the further portion in the event of a deformation of the connecting piece.

[0042] The hinged relative movement here refers to a hinged movement about an axis of articulation between the at least first portion and the second portion or between the first portion and the further portion of the wall element.

[0043] According to a supplementary embodiment, the elastically deformable connecting piece between the at least first portion and the second portion or between the first portion and the further portion is achieved by means of an overlap of the at least first portion and the second portion or of the first portion and the further portion. The gap between the at least first portion and the second portion or between the first portion and the further portion is only filled by said overlap.

[0044] Said covering layer here can in particular at least partially consist of leather. Alternatively, artificial leather or the like can of course also be considered. In particular, the covering layer serves to form a functionally mechanical connection between the at least first portion and the second portion or between the first portion and the further portion, but also to provide a visually and / or haptically appealing surface.

[0045] It can be provided that the covering layer is applied to the entire wall element, i.e. to all portions, or only to certain areas. It is also possible to apply a plurality of different covering layers. The covering layer can be arranged on the inner side, i.e. the side facing towards the interior space of the shelf, or on the outer side, i.e. the side facing away from the interior space of the shelf. In a supplementary embodiment it can of course also be provided that the shelf is overlaid in multiple layers, such that, for example, a covering layer is applied to both sides of the portions and the covering layer thus encloses the portions.

[0046] Especially in a design in which the portions are overlaid on both sides, it can be provided that two opposing covering layers are connected to one another in the gap between the at least first portion and the second portion or between the first portion and the further portion.

[0047] The gap between the at least first and second parts or between the first part and the further part is only filled by the coating, but it is naturally not excluded that, for example, a glue layer is also provided in the gap.

[0048] In an alternative embodiment, the elastically deformable connection between the at least first and second parts or between the first part and the further part is achieved by thinning of the material.

[0049] This means that the mutually connected parts of the wall element are formed as a whole component. The delimitation of one partial region of one component from another partial region can be identified accordingly by thinning of the material. Furthermore, the thinning serves as an elastically deformable connection. The wall element thus forms a so-called film hinge between the at least first and second parts or between the first part and the further part.

[0050] The thinning can here mean not only the introduction of less material during the processing of the wall element, but also the subsequent removal of material, for example by the addition of notches.

[0051] In an embodiment, as an alternative to the embodiment of the application with an elastically deformable connection, a hinge is formed between the at least first and second parts or between the first part and the further part. The hinge here enables a hinged relative movement between the at least first and second parts or between the first part and the further part.

[0052] The hinge can be a classic door hinge, a furniture hinge, a roll hinge, a lever hinge, a cup hinge or a multi-joint hinge.

[0053] Furthermore, it is also possible to combine a hard component and a flexible component, for example by injection molding, to achieve a film hinge.

[0054] In a further embodiment of the application, the recess of the first part has different locking positions, so that the catch can be adjusted to different locking positions in the recess, thus allowing different open positions of the shelf.

[0055] This means that the guide slot defined by the profile of the recess and intended to guide the catch has several ends or at least one intermediate position between two ends. One end or one intermediate position here serves as a closed position, while the other end and / or the other intermediate position serves as a possible open position.

[0056] For example, the guide slot can be designed essentially T-shaped and thus have three ends, between which the catch can be locked. Furthermore, the guide slot can be designed essentially V-shaped or W-shaped, for example, thus having one or more intermediate positions between the two ends of the profile, between which the catch can be locked.

[0057] It is conceivable not only to lock the catch at a defined position at one end or at an intermediate position of the profile. It is also possible to provide a locking position at any position of the guide rail. This can be achieved, for example, by a slot geometry in the profile, which is formed at any position of the guide rail. The catch can be moved into this slot in a form-fitting manner, so that locking is achieved at any desired position along the guide rail. The guide rail can then also be designed, for example, essentially O-shaped or partially circular and allow different open positions of the shelf. Other profiles of the guide rail are also possible in the sense of the application.

[0058] In an alternative embodiment, it is also possible, of course, that the guide mechanism has the recess. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF DRAWINGS

[0066] The drawings are merely schematic representations and are only used to explain the application. Identical or identically acting parts bear the same reference symbols throughout.

[0067] Figure 1The front view of the shelf 1 according to the present invention is shown. The shelf 1 comprises a wall element 10 and a retaining element 20. The retaining element 20 is divided into a first area 21, a second area 22 and a third area 23 as a common component. The wall element 10 consists of a plurality of parts 12, 13, 14, which are each mechanically connected to each other by a connecting element 40. The connecting element 40 covers the parts 12, 13, 14 so that their outline is shown here as shown by the dotted line (the dotted line is used for better identification). The connecting element 40 is designed as a leather layer, which covers the respective parts 12, 13, 14 on at least one of all its sides and is mechanically connected to them on "the at least one side". Here, for example, the connecting element 40 can be superimposed on the parts 12, 13, 14.

[0068] The connecting element 40 allows an articulated relative movement between at least the first part and the further part ( 13 , 14 ) of the wall element 10 and between the second part 12 and the further part ( 13 , 14 ) of the wall element 10 .

[0069] The shelf 1 according to the invention provides that a first portion of the wall element 10 (not visible here) is mounted in a first region 21 of the holder 20 at the first end 3 of the shelf 1. The second portion 12 of the wall element 10 is connected to a third region 23 of the holder 20 in the center of the shelf 1. The third portion of the wall element 10 (not shown) is mounted in a second region 22 of the holder 20 at the second end 4 of the shelf 1.

[0070] The first connecting portion 13 of the wall element 10 is arranged between the first portion of the wall element 10 and the second portion 12 of the wall element 10. The second connecting portion 14 of the wall element 10 is arranged between the third portion of the wall element 10 and the second portion 12 of the wall element 10. Here, the first portion is mechanically connected to the first connecting portion 13. The first connecting portion 13 is in turn mechanically connected to the second portion 12. The second portion 12 is mechanically connected to the second connecting portion 14 on its side opposite the first connecting portion 13. The second connecting portion 14 is also mechanically connected to the third portion.

[0071] This means that the shelf 1 is symmetrically designed by virtue of the mutually identical design of its first end 3 and its second end 4 .

[0072] Figure 2 A partial cross-sectional view of the holder 20 is shown, wherein Figure 2 The front view of the retaining element 20 is shown and the jagged lines show the uncoated area of ​​the first part 11. This partial section is located in the first area 21 of the retaining element 20, so that a part of the first part 11 of the wall element 10 can be seen. Figure 2 The locking mechanism 30 and the first guide mechanism 24 supporting the first part 11 can be seen.

[0073] The guide mechanism 24 includes a pin-shaped latching element 26, wherein the first part 11 forms a recess 25. The latching element 26 is arranged in the recess 25 and can be moved there in a defined manner. The contour of the recess 25 predefines a guide slot along which the latching element 26 can be moved. The recess 25 is designed as a smooth elongated hole, so that the guide slot visible here allows for a linear movement of the latching element 26.

[0074] Also shown is a locking mechanism 30 for holding or locking the first portion 11 of the wall element 10 in a defined position. The locking mechanism 30 comprises a pin 31, which is formed as an integral component of the first region 21 of the retaining element 20, and first and second recesses 32, 33. The recesses 32, 33 are formed on the outer side of the first portion 11 of the wall element 10.

[0075] If the first part 11 moves along the guide slot defined by the recess 25, the recesses 32 and 33 also move relative to the pin 31. If the pin 31 is locked in the first recess 32, the first part 11 is locked in the first position by the form fit formed by the pin 31 and the first recess 32. Similarly, when the pin 31 is locked in the second recess 32, the first part 11 is also locked in the second position.

[0076] In the second region 22 of the holder 20, the first portion 11 is also provided as follows: Figure 2 The guidance and locking shown in the first region 21 of the holder 20 serves to guide and lock the third part which is mounted in the second region.

[0077] Figure 3 and Figure 4 Shows the basis in different positions Figure 1 Shelf 1. Figure 3 A perspective view showing the shelf 1 in the closed position, wherein Figure 4 A perspective view showing the shelf 1 in the open position.

[0078] It can be seen here that the wall element 10 of the shelf 1 is designed to be essentially flat in the closed position. The parts 11, 12, 13, 14 of the wall element 10 are respectively arranged in the same plane and extend essentially parallel to the areas 21, 22, 23 of the retaining element 20 for guiding these parts. In the closed position, the interior space 2 at least partially defined by the shelf 1 when integrated in a vehicle is particularly small.

[0079] In contrast, the interior space 2 of the shelf 1 is significantly larger in the open position. This is achieved by matching the shapes of the parts 11, 12, 13, 14 to one another so that they can be moved relative to one another in a defined manner, thereby modifying the interior space 2 of the shelf 1 in a defined manner.

[0080] The second part 12 has here a trapezoidal shape and the connecting parts 13, 14 have a triangular shape. In this embodiment, the second part 12 is connected with its base to the holder 20 and can be tilted relative to the holder. The second part 12 is connected with one of its arms to one side of the first connecting part 13. The second part 12 is connected with the other arm to one side of the second connecting part 14. The first connecting part 13 is connected with the other side to the first part (not visible here). The second connecting part 14 is connected with the other side to the third part (not visible here).

[0081] If now the closed position according to Figure 3 is to be switched to the open position according to Figure 4 , the second part 12 is tilted forward about its base relative to the holder 20. This movement of the second part 12 causes a corresponding tilting of the two connecting parts 13, 14.

[0082] Because of the triangular shape, the connecting parts 13, 14 are also twisted. The first connecting part 13 is here rotated about the angle bisector between the side connected to the second part 12 and the side connected to the first part. The second connecting part 14 is here rotated about the angle bisector between the side connected to the second part 12 and the side connected to the third part. Due to the symmetrical design of the shelf 1, the connecting parts 13, 14 are here rotated in opposite directions to each other. This causes the first part and the third part to be moved out of their support in the holder 20 towards each other as specified.

[0083] In summary, the movement of the parts 12, 13, 14 during opening can be described as follows: The second part 12 is tilted forward, the connecting parts 13, 14 follow the second part 12 and at the same time twist, the first part and the third part follow the connecting parts 13, 14 and are partially pulled out of their corresponding regions 21, 22 of the holder 20.

[0084] Figure 5 A cross-sectional view of the wall element 10 of the inventive shelf shown in the first embodiment.

[0085] The first part 11 of the wall element 10 and the second part 12 of the wall element 10 as well as the connecting element 40 can be seen. The connecting element 40 is here composed of two elastically deformable connecting layers 41, between which the parts 11, 12 of the wall element 10 are sandwiched. The connecting layers 41 can for example be composed at least partially of leather.

[0086] The parts 11, 12 of the wall element 10 are here arranged spaced apart from each other, whereby a gap is formed between the two parts 11, 12.

[0087] The connecting layer 41 is firmly connected to the parts 11, 12 here, for example by a lamination process, and to one another in the interspace between the two parts 11, 12. In this way, a mechanical connection between the parts 11, 12 is achieved by the connecting layer 41. The mechanical connection established by the connecting piece 40 allows a hinged relative movement between the first part 11 and the second part 12 by means of the elastically deformable connecting layer 41.

[0088] Thus in this design, the connecting piece 40 not only fulfils the function of a mechanical connection by means of the connecting layers 41 arranged on both sides, but also a surface on the wall element 10 which is visually and / or haptically appealing.

[0089] Figure 6 Cross-sectional view of a wall element 10 of a shelf according to the application, shown in a second embodiment.

[0090] Unlike the first embodiment of the wall element according to Figure 5 The connecting piece 40 is here an integral component of the wall element 10. The mechanical connection between the first part 11 and the second part 12 of the wall element 10 by means of the connecting piece 40 is here achieved in such a way that the parts 11, 12 of the wall element 10 are formed from the same component and the connecting piece 40 is formed as a thinning 42 in the material of the wall element 10 between the two parts 11, 12.

[0091] Thanks to the use of a mechanism which is as simple as possible in terms of construction, the shelf according to the application provides an adjustable shelf which ensures reliable and long-lasting use and better exploitation of the storage space.
