Description

[0001] The invention relates to a holding system for mounting on a wall, in particular a vertical wall, comprising at least one object holder designed to hold an object, which can be adhered to the wall by means of a double-sided self-adhesive unit. The invention further relates to a method for mounting such a holding system.

[0002] Such holding systems are mainly used to provide options for attaching or hanging objects of various kinds on a wall without damaging the wall or even the object itself with holes, screws and / or nails. State of the art

[0003] A holding system and associated assembly method of the type mentioned above are known from EP 0 861 622 A2. The holding system, referred to therein as a holding device, has a base plate that can be adhered to a wall by means of an adhesive strip that can be removed by pulling. A tongue-like handle of the adhesive strip projects beyond the base plate and allows the adhered adhesive strip to be pulled in order to stretch it and remove it from the wall together with the base plate without leaving any residue. An object holder, referred to as a functional part, is pivotably arranged on the base plate via a film hinge. The object holder has a holding device and can be folded into a holding position against the base plate, in which the holding device can be used to hold an object.A certain shortcoming of the known holding device is that it is relatively difficult to mount the holding system in such a way that it has a desired orientation with respect to the associated wall in the ready-to-use configuration.

[0004] WO 2005 / 046938 A1 discloses a clamping device comprising a base body that can be releasably bonded to a surface by means of two adhesive strips, each of which can be released by pulling. A threaded bore is formed in the base body, through which a screw element passes. The screw element has a head to which an adhesive strip, also removable by pulling, is attached. When the base body is bonded to a surface, it is possible to displace the screw element in such a way that the adhesive strip attached to its head adheres to said surface. Depending on the direction of actuation of the screw element, tensile or compressive forces can be transmitted. Task

[0005] One object of the invention is to provide an easy-to-use, self-adhesive mounting system that can be precisely mounted on a wall, particularly a vertical wall, in a desired orientation with little effort, without damaging the wall with holes, screws, or nails. Furthermore, a simple method for mounting the mounting system is to be proposed. Solution

[0006] The aforementioned object is achieved by the invention with the features of the independent claims. Advantageous developments of the invention are characterized in the subclaims. The wording of all claims is hereby incorporated by reference into this description. The invention also encompasses all reasonable and, in particular, all mentioned combinations of independent and / or dependent claims. The description of all features and technical effects made with reference to the holding system according to the invention also applies mutatis mutandis to the assembly method according to the invention, and vice versa.

[0007] In particular, the task is solved in a holding system having the features mentioned above by - a mounting frame having a front and a rear side, which is penetrated by at least one positioning window open to the front and to the rear side and which has a self-adhesive device on the rear side with which it can be stuck to a wall in a wall position, - at least one double-sided self-adhesive unit which has a rear adhesive surface and which is designed to be glued to the wall through the at least one positioning window of the mounting frame taking up the wall position, taking up an adhesive position with its rear adhesive surface, - and at least one fastening plate having a front side and a rear side, which can be inserted into a positioning window of the mounting frame with an orientation predetermined by a positive fit with respect to the mounting frame and, while assuming a resulting fastening position, can be glued with its rear side to the front adhesive surface of the self-adhesive unit located in the positioning window in the adhesive position and which has on its front side a fastening structure designed for fastening the object holder, - wherein the object holder has on its rear side a coupling device adapted to the fastening structure of the at least one base plate and can be fastened with its coupling device in a holding position to the fastening structure of the at least one fastening plate located in the fastening position, with at least partial frontal coverage of the mounting frame.

[0008] The object is further achieved in particular by a method for assembling a holding system of the aforementioned design, which is characterized by the following method steps: - Glue the mounting frame to the wall in the desired position using the self-adhesive strip on the back, - subsequent bonding of the at least one double-sided self-adhesive unit with its rear adhesive surface in its bonding position to the wall through the at least one positioning window of the mounting frame bonded in the wall position, - subsequent positive insertion of the at least one fastening plate into a positioning window of the mounting frame glued in the wall position, combined with gluing the fastening plate thus aligned with respect to the mounting frame to the front adhesive surface of the self-adhesive unit located in the positioning window in the adhesive position to maintain the fastening position, and - subsequently fastening the object holder in the holding position to the fastening structure of the at least one fastening plate occupying a fastening position by means of the coupling device, wherein the mounting frame is at least partially covered on its front side by the object holder.

[0009] When the holding system is mounted on a wall, ready for use, it assumes a ready-to-use configuration, which is characterized in particular by the mounting frame occupying the wall position, the at least one double-sided self-adhesive unit occupying the adhesive position, the at least one fastening plate occupying the fastening position, and the object holder occupying the holding position. In this ready-to-use configuration, the aforementioned components, with the assistance of the wall, particularly the vertical wall, are combined to form an assembly. This assembly presents itself as a wall-mounted unit and expediently has a detachable structure so that it can be removed from the wall at any time without damage if necessary.

[0010] The support system has a mounting frame, which is the first component to be attached to the wall to be equipped with the support system during installation. A self-adhesive fastener on the back of the mounting frame allows tool-free fixing of the mounting frame to the wall in a position referred to as the "wall position." The inclination of the mounting frame in the wall position determines the alignment of the entire installed support system. Since the mounting frame is easily accessible and can be easily aligned, for example, with the aid of a suitable leveling device such as a spirit level, optimal conditions for precise alignment of the support system in its ready-to-use configuration can be created simply by attaching the mounting frame.

[0011] The main purpose of the mounting frame is to function like a template for mounting one or more fastening plates to which an object holder can be attached. Through positive engagement with the mounting frame, the at least one fastening plate is precisely aligned with respect to the mounting frame when mounted in a fastening position. The fastening position is created by gluing it to the wall using one or more double-sided self-adhesive units. The mounting frame is penetrated by one or more positioning windows which allow a passage to the wall when the mounting frame is in the wall position. There is a double-sided self-adhesive unit for each positioning window, so that a self-adhesive unit can be glued to the wall in each positioning window to assume an adhesive position.

[0012] The at least one fastening plate can be inserted into the at least one positioning window, wherein a positive connection resulting therefrom predetermines a predetermined alignment between the fastening plate and the mounting frame and consequently also between the fastening plate and the wall, and wherein the interaction of the fastening plate with the self-adhesive unit located in the associated positioning window predetermines a position of the fastening plate referred to as the fastening position. Each fastening plate is thus adhered to the wall by an associated self-adhesive unit without the assistance of the mounting frame, wherein the mounting frame is fixed to the wall independently of the fastening elements by its self-adhesive device and primarily serves as an assembly template for the at least one fastening plate.

[0013] Regardless of the number of mounting plates, each mounting plate has a fastening structure on its front side facing away from the associated self-adhesive unit. This fastening structure is functionally coordinated with a coupling device of the object holder such that the object holder can be fastened to the at least one fastening plate through the mechanical interaction between the coupling device and the fastening structure of each mounting plate. In the intended mounted position of the object holder, referred to as the holding position, the front side of the mounting frame is at least partially and preferably entirely covered by the object holder. This allows all fastening measures to be concealed to ensure an appealing appearance for the viewer.The object holder mounted in the holding position can be used to hold one or more objects, whereby the object holder can have a standard design or a design individually adapted to an object to be held.

[0014] In particular, it is provided that the object holder has at least one holding structure designed to hold an object. Within the scope of the invention, it is possible to equip the holding system with several object holders that differ from one another in their holding structure, but whose coupling device has a uniform design, so that they can be attached to the at least one fastening structure in the holding position alternatively to one another.

[0015] Advantageous further developments of the invention emerge from the subclaims.

[0016] It is advantageous if the mounting frame of the holding system has a leveling device that can be used to align the wall position of the mounting plate. In other words, the mounting frame can have an integrated leveling device. This leveling device is designed in particular as a so-called vial, as used in spirit levels, so that the mounting frame itself can ultimately assume the function of a spirit level. With the help of the leveling device, the mounting frame can be aligned very precisely horizontally on a wall before it is pressed against the wall for the final activation of its self-adhesive device. The leveling device is attached such that it is visible from the front of the mounting frame. In particular, it can be arranged in the area of ​​the front of the mounting frame so that it occupies a position that is most easily visible.

[0017] The self-adhesive device of the mounting frame expediently consists of at least two self-adhesive strips, each provided with a flexible protective cover that can be removed before being attached to the wall. The flexible protective cover is, for example, a masking paper. The adhesive strips are spaced apart from one another in the axial direction of an imaginary main frame axis, in particular arranged such that they have a longitudinal orientation orthogonal to the main frame axis. In the wall position fixed by the adhesive force of the self-adhesive device, the main frame axis of the mounting frame is expediently aligned horizontally.

[0018] The at least one and thus each double-sided self-adhesive unit provided for bonding a mounting plate expediently has at least one double-sided self-adhesive adhesive strip having a longitudinal extension.

[0019] Preferably, the at least one double-sided self-adhesive strip is a tensile-releasable adhesive strip having an end portion configured as a pull tab that can be grasped with the fingers of one hand. Such tensile-releasable adhesive strips are known per se and are described, for example, in EP 0 861 632 A2 or WO 2005 / 046938 A1, as well as in DE 100 03 318 A1, DE 102 52 088 A1, DE 102 52 089 A1, and DE 10 2007 021 504 A1.

[0020] It is considered advantageous if the pull tab of each adhesive strip of each self-adhesive unit occupying an adhesive position is not covered by the mounting plate, which is glued to the front adhesive surface of the self-adhesive unit in the mounting position. This allows the pull tab to be easily grasped, at least when the object holder is not mounted, if the mounting system needs to be removed from the wall.

[0021] In order to achieve a particularly high holding force, it is expedient if each double-sided self-adhesive unit has several double-sided self-adhesive adhesive strips arranged next to one another with a parallel longitudinal extension. These several adhesive strips together form the rear and the front adhesive surface of the self-adhesive unit. Each adhesive strip therefore contributes to the formation of the respective adhesive surface with a strip-shaped adhesive surface section. The several adhesive strips are arranged between two flexible first and second protective covers, each extending over all the adhesive strips of the self-adhesive unit and being removable to use the associated adhesive surface. These flexible protective covers are each in particular a release paper.The first protective cover is removable in order to stick the self-adhesive unit to a wall with the adhesive surface on the back in the adhesive position, while simultaneously using all of the adhesive strips of the self-adhesive unit.

[0022] Once a self-adhesive unit is fixed in the adhesive position, the second protective cover can be easily removed to make the front adhesive surface usable for gluing a mounting plate.

[0023] Conveniently, the at least one, and thus each, mounting plate provided has on its front side, in each area that covers one of the adhesive strips in the mounting position, a pressure track extending along the covered adhesive strip, along which a manually operable pressure tool can be applied and rubbed. Information on the mounting plate can instruct the user to perform a certain number of rubbing operations to ensure an optimally secure adhesive hold. The pressure track can be defined, for example, by a longitudinal groove-like recess formed in the front side of the mounting plate.

[0024] The holding system advantageously includes a manually operable pressing tool that can be operated independently of the other system components and used to press the at least one mounting plate onto the self-adhesive unit intended for its adhesive fixation. To ensure safe storage of this pressing tool, it is advisable for the object holder to have a recess on the back in which the pressing tool can be removably stored when not in use.

[0025] To achieve the alignment of each fastening plate in the fastening position based on a positive connection with the mounting frame, it is expedient if the circumferential contour of the at least one and thus each positioning window defined by the mounting frame and the edge-side circumferential contour of the at least one associated fastening plate are non-circular and complementary to one another. The circumferential contours are in particular coordinated with one another such that the fastening plate can only be inserted into the at least one positioning window in a single relative position with respect to the mounting frame for attachment in its fastening position. In this way, it can be ensured that the fastening structures arranged on a respective fastening plate have the alignment required for the subsequent attachment of the object holder.

[0026] The at least one fastening plate expediently has at least one laterally projecting support projection on the edge, which in the fastening position partially overlaps the mounting frame in the region of its rear side and with which the fastening plate can be or is supported on the rear side on a support section of the mounting frame.

[0027] This ensures, in particular, that the mounting plate in question does not fall below a minimum distance from the adjacent wall in the mounting position, and that the mounting plate is stably supported on the mounting frame, regardless of the flexibility of the associated self-adhesive unit. Preferably, the mounting plate has at least one support projection on at least two opposite edge regions. Each support projection can, for example, be designed in the shape of a tab.

[0028] Preferably, the fastening structure of the at least one, and thus of each, fastening plate has at least one fastening slot which has an undercut cross-sectional contour and which expediently extends vertically in the fastening position of the fastening plate. The fastening slot is open towards the front of the fastening plate and has an insertion opening at one end of the slot through which the object holder can be positively inserted during its assembly using a coupling projection of its coupling device. Threading into a respective fastening slot can advantageously be facilitated by providing the mounting frame in the peripheral region of each positioning window with a funnel-like insertion structure which is aligned with a fastening slot when the associated fastening plate is in its fastening position.When the mounting frame is fixed in the wall position, the insertion openings of the funnel-like insertion structures preferably point vertically upwards.

[0029] The coupling device located on the rear of the object holder is designed in such a way that, in the case of multiple mounting plates, it engages with the fastening structures of all of the mounting plates. This way, even a relatively long object holder experiences a high holding force and is capable of securely holding even heavier objects to the wall.

[0030] The number of positioning windows provided can be variably selected during manufacture of the holding system depending on the holding task and the holding forces to be applied. This means that the mounting frame can be equipped with either a single positioning window or several positioning windows. The number of self-adhesive units and fastening plates corresponds in particular to the number of positioning windows present. If several positioning windows are present, they are expediently arranged next to one another in a row along an imaginary main frame axis of the mounting frame. If the mounting frame has a preferred longitudinal shape, the imaginary main frame axis corresponds to the longitudinal axis of the mounting frame. The imaginary main frame axis is preferably aligned horizontally in the mounted wall position of the mounting frame.

[0031] It is considered particularly useful if the mounting frame has one or two or four positioning windows.

[0032] As already mentioned, the object holder expediently has at least one holding structure intended for holding an object. Such a holding structure can be designed, for example, as a shelf extending in a horizontal plane in the holding position, on which one or more objects, such as jewelry or pictures, can be placed. A particularly advantageous holding structure contains at least one hanging recess, which is particularly groove-shaped and allows for hanging an object to be held.

[0033] The holding system preferably contains one or more objects designed to be secured by the holding structure, wherein at least one object may have a hook structure with which it can be suspended in a suspension recess of the object holder. Such an object may, for example, be box-shaped or cup-shaped.

[0034] Each positioning window may, for example, have an at least substantially rectangular window opening to which the plate shape of the associated mounting plate is adapted.

[0035] The length of the object holder measured in the axial direction of the imaginary main frame axis expediently corresponds at least substantially and preferably exactly to the length of the mounting frame.

[0036] Preferably, a width of the object holder measured orthogonally to the imaginary main frame axis corresponds at least substantially to the correspondingly measured width of the mounting frame. In this way, the object holder, in the mounted holding position, can completely conceal the mounting frame and the other components of the holding system located between the object holder and the mounting frame.

[0037] When applying the mounting method according to the invention, it is advantageous if the mounting frame has the mentioned integrated leveling device, with the aid of which it is aligned horizontally to set the desired wall position.

[0038] In a holding system whose mounting frame has several positioning windows, an advantageous assembly procedure takes place in particular in such a way that - after the mounting frame, which has several positioning windows arranged at a distance from one another along an imaginary main frame axis, has been glued in the wall position, one of several double-sided self-adhesive units is glued to the wall in its adhesive position through each positioning window, - whereupon one of several fastening plates is inserted into each of the positioning windows with a positive fit relative to the mounting frame and is glued to the self-adhesive unit located in the associated positioning window to fix the fastening position, - whereupon the object holder with its coupling device is attached to the fastening structures of all fastening plates in order to assume the holding position.

[0039] The fastening structures and the coupling device are particularly matched to one another in such a way that the object holder can be inserted vertically from above into the fastening structures for assembly in the holding position.

[0040] The holding system according to the invention and the assembly method according to the invention are explained in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings using advantageous exemplary embodiments. The respective features can be implemented individually or in combination with one another. The possibilities for solving the problem are not limited to the exemplary embodiments. For example, range specifications always include all intermediate values ​​(not mentioned) and all conceivable sub-intervals.

[0041] The exemplary embodiments are shown predominantly schematically in the figures. Identical reference numerals in the individual figures denote identical or functionally identical elements, or elements that correspond to one another in terms of their functions. Not all elements are provided with reference numerals. Different views of identical elements may be scaled differently. In detail: Fig. 1 a preferred embodiment of the holding system according to the invention in a ready-to-use configuration mounted on a wall in a perspective view, Fig. 2 in one of the Fig. 1 corresponding representation of a further embodiment of the holding system according to the invention, Fig. 3 an exploded view of a preferred construction of the holding system according to the invention, with individual components being illustrated separately in dot-dash framed partial figures (a), (b) and (c) also enlarged again, Fig. 4 that in Fig. 1 shown and in its structure the Fig. 3 corresponding holding system in an isometric exploded view, Fig. 5-15 a preferred sequence of a method for assembling the holding system, illustrating successively executable process steps, wherein advantageous design features of the holding system are also explained with the aid of the figures, wherein furthermore in the Fig. 15 the holding system analogous to the Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 is shown in the ready-to-use configuration after assembly, and Fig. 16 a cross section through the holding system along the section plane XVI-XVI of Fig. 15.

[0042] The holding system, designated overall by reference numeral 1, is designed to be mounted on a vertical wall 2, in particular an interior wall of a building, for example the wall of a living space, in order to assume a ready-to-use position. The holding system 1, mounted in the use configuration, offers the possibility of holding in principle any object 3, wherein the object 3 can be, for example, a purely visual object such as a work of art 3a, or an object 3 with practical value, for example a storage and / or presentation object 3b for any objects.

[0043] Object 3 is exemplary in the Fig. 1, Fig. 3 and Fig. 4 a cup-shaped storage and / or presentation object 3b and in the Fig. 2 an art object 3a is shown. In the Fig. 1, a box-like object 3 is also visible, which makes it clear that the holding system 1 can be designed or suitable for holding several objects 3 simultaneously.

[0044] In particular, depending on its type, the object 3 can be a component of the restraint system 1 or can be provided as an external object by the person using the restraint system 1.

[0045] The holding system 1 includes in particular a mounting frame 4, at least one double-sided adhesive unit 5, at least one fastening plate 6 and an object holder 7.

[0046] In particular, depending on the desired dimensions and the weight of the object 3 to be held, the holding system 1 can be equipped with only a single self-adhesive unit 5 and only a single fastening plate 6 or can have a plurality of these components, wherein in the latter case the number of self-adhesive units 5 expediently corresponds to the number of fastening plates 6.

[0047] The holding system 1 illustrated as an example contains a plurality of self-adhesive units 5 and fastening plates 6, the number being four in each case.

[0048] A main function of the mounting frame 4 is to specify a desired spatial orientation of the mounted support system 1. In particular, this involves specifying a horizontal orientation in which an imaginary system axis 8 of the support system 1 assuming the ready-to-use configuration is aligned horizontally.

[0049] Each self-adhesive unit 5 serves to adhesively fix a fastening plate 6 to the wall 2. When a fastening plate 6 is glued on, the same is directly aligned as desired by the mounting frame 4. Each fastening plate 6 functions as an interface element between a self-adhesive unit 5 and the object holder 7. In the usage configuration of the holding system 1, the latter is fastened to the fastening plates 6 and, due to their wall-side adhesive fixation, is consequently also held to the wall 2. Due to a positive interaction between a respective fastening plate 6 and the mounting frame 4, which effects mutual alignment, the fastening plates 6 have a predetermined orientation, resulting in a desired target orientation of the object holder 7 attached to the fastening plates 6 for the usage configuration.

[0050] The object holder 7 expediently has a holding structure 11 designed to hold the object 3. Such a holding structure 11 can, for example, be designed according to the embodiment of the Fig. 2 may be designed as a storage plate 11a, which allows the placement of an object 3, 3a to be held. In the assembled use configuration, the storage plate 11a protrudes from the wall 2 and extends in a horizontal plane.

[0051] Another embodiment of the support structure 11 is shown in the Fig. 1, Fig. 3, Fig. 4, Fig. 15 and Fig. 16 and is designed as a groove-shaped suspension recess 11b into which the object 3, 3b to be held can be releasably suspended. For this purpose, the object 3, 3b to be suspended is equipped, for example, with a hook structure 12. The suspension recess 11b extends, in particular, parallel to the system axis 8.

[0052] Holding structures 11 of different types can easily be implemented on one and the same object holder 7 in order to enable particularly variable simultaneous or alternative use.

[0053] In the following description, it is assumed that the holding system 1 in the ready-to-use configuration is or should be aligned such that the system axis 8 of the holding system 1 extends horizontally. This state is also referred to below as the horizontal alignment of the holding system 1.

[0054] The mounting frame 4 has an imaginary main frame axis 13, which is the longitudinal axis of the mounting frame 4 when the mounting frame 4 has an elongated shape according to the illustrated embodiment. The mounting frame 4 extends in a frame plane 14 containing the main frame axis 13, which is spanned by the main frame axis 13 and a secondary frame axis 15 orthogonal to it.

[0055] The mounting frame 4 has a plurality of openings referred to as positioning windows 16 due to a positioning function to be explained in more detail below, which each pass through the mounting frame 4 perpendicular to the frame plane 14 and each open to a front side 17 and a rear side 18 of the mounting frame 4.

[0056] The number of positioning windows 16 corresponds to the number of existing self-adhesive units 5 and mounting plates 6. Accordingly, there are a total of four positioning windows 16, as an example.

[0057] In principle, the number of positioning windows 16 is arbitrary, whereby the mounting frame 4 in the simplest case has only a single positioning window 16.

[0058] The positioning windows 16 are arranged in a linear row along the main frame axis 13, spaced apart from one another, preferably at the same distance. The mounting frame 4 has a frame body 22, preferably made of plastic material, with a flat shape, which has a number of self-contained frame structures 21 corresponding to the number of positioning windows 16, each of which defines a circumferential contour of the framed positioning window 16.

[0059] Overall, the frame body 22 has in particular a ladder-like structure.

[0060] The positioning windows 16 each expediently have an at least substantially rectangular opening cross-section, wherein the dimensions of the opening cross-section in the axial direction of the main frame axis 13 are expediently larger than in the axial direction of the secondary frame axis 15.

[0061] The mounting frame 4 is equipped on its rear side 18 with a self-adhesive device 23, with which it can be permanently bonded to the wall 2. The position assumed by the mounting frame 4 in the bonded state is referred to as the wall position for ease of differentiation. The self-adhesive device 23 expediently consists of several adhesive strips 24, each attached to a rear surface of the frame body 22 associated with the rear side 18. The adhesive strips 24 are bonded to the frame body 22. Each adhesive strip 24 has a self-adhesive surface facing away from the frame body 22, which, in the delivery state of the holding system 1, i.e., before the start of installation, is covered by a removable, flexible protective cover 25. In this regard, reference is made to the Fig. 5. For the intended use of the adhesive strips 24, the flexible protective covers 25 can be removed with the fingers of one hand.

[0062] The adhesive strips 24 preferably have a longitudinal shape and are arranged on the mounting frame 4 in particular with a longitudinal orientation orthogonal to the main frame axis 13.

[0063] By way of example, the frame body 22 has a plurality of transverse webs 26, each extending in the axial direction of the frame's secondary axis 15, by which the positioning windows 16 are delimited on the sides facing in the axial direction of the frame's main axis 13. Preferably, the self-adhesive device 23 contains two adhesive strips 24, each of which is attached to one of the two outer transverse webs 26.

[0064] Transverse webs 26 arranged directly one after the other in the axial direction of the main frame axis 13 are each integrally connected to one another by two longitudinal webs 27 spaced apart from one another in the axial direction of the secondary frame axis 15. Each of the frame structures 21 is composed of two transverse webs 26 and two longitudinal webs 27 of the frame body 22.

[0065] The main frame axis 13 runs parallel to the system axis 8 and is therefore also horizontally aligned in the horizontally aligned usage configuration of the holding system 1.

[0066] The adhesive strips 24 are expediently pre-glued to the frame body 22 in the delivery state of the holding system 1. Alternatively, they can also be included as double-sided self-adhesive strips, which are glued to the frame body 22 by the user when the holding system 1 is used for the first time.

[0067] Conveniently, the mounting frame 4 has an integrated leveling device 28, which can be used to attach the mounting frame 4 to the wall 2 precisely in the desired position. The leveling device 28 is located, for example, in the area of ​​the front of the mounting frame 4 so that it is clearly visible from the front when the mounting frame 4 is placed against the wall 2 with the rear side 18 facing forward.

[0068] By way of example, the frame body 22 has a fixing aperture 31 in one of the transverse webs 26, in particular in a central transverse web 26, in which the leveling device 28 is fixed, for example by pressing or gluing. The leveling device 28 can thus be viewed from both the rear side 18 and the front side 17.

[0069] The leveling device 28 allows in particular a precise horizontal alignment of the main frame axis 13 of the mounting frame 4.

[0070] The leveling device 28 is preferably designed as a spirit level, in particular as a tubular spirit level. This is the case in the illustrated embodiment.

[0071] The mounting frame 4, equipped with a leveling device 28, can be handled like a spirit level and thus precisely aligned horizontally. The mounting frame 4 can be said to have an integrated spirit level function.

[0072] If no integrated leveling device 28 is present, the preferably linear longitudinal extension of the frame body 22 is very well suited for the installation of a separate spirit level used for alignment.

[0073] The holding system 1 has a number of the aforementioned double-sided self-adhesive units 5 corresponding to the number of positioning windows 16. The dimensions of the self-adhesive units 5 are designed such that, when the mounting frame 4 assumes a wall position, they can each be adhered to the wall 2 through one of the positioning windows 16. For better differentiation, the position on the wall 2 designated in the adhered state of a respective self-adhesive unit 5 is referred to as the adhesive position.

[0074] The self-adhesive units 5 are included in the holding system 1 as loose system components in the delivery state before assembly.

[0075] Each self-adhesive unit 5 has a plate-like, flat shape and comprises a plurality of double-sided self-adhesive strips 32, each of which has a longitudinal extension. The plurality of adhesive strips 32 of each self-adhesive unit 5—exemplarily, there are four adhesive strips 32 each—are arranged next to one another with mutually parallel longitudinal extensions and together form a rear adhesive surface 33 and a front adhesive surface 34. Each individual adhesive strip 32 has one of two strip-shaped adhesive surface sections on opposite strip surfaces, wherein the adhesive surface sections facing the same side together form the rear adhesive surface 33 in one case and the front adhesive surface 34 of the self-adhesive unit 5 in the other case.

[0076] Before use, each self-adhesive unit 5 contains two flexible protective covers, which are referred to as first and second protective covers 35, 36 for ease of differentiation, wherein the first protective cover 35 covers the rear adhesive surface 33, while the second protective cover 36 covers the front adhesive surface 34.

[0077] The two protective covers 35, 36 are in accordance with the Fig. 3(a) can be removed from the associated adhesive surface 33, 34 if the respective adhesive surface 33, 34 is to be used.

[0078] The protective covers 35, 36 are made of thin paper.

[0079] Overall, the self-adhesive units 5 expediently have a rectangular outline, with dimensions that allow the self-adhesive units 5 to be guided through one of the positioning windows 16 with the rear side 18 facing forward.

[0080] Each self-adhesive unit 5 can have a number of double-sided self-adhesive strips 32 other than the exemplary four. Particularly if a relatively compact holding system 1 is to be provided, it is possible to equip each self-adhesive unit 5 with only a single adhesive strip 32. In this case, the two strip-shaped adhesive surface sections of the single adhesive strip 32 form the rear and front adhesive surfaces 33, 34 of the self-adhesive unit 5.

[0081] The adhesive strips 32 are, in particular, adhesive strips 32 of a type that can be debonded by pulling. By applying a tensile force, the adhesive strip material can be deformed and, in particular, stretched such that the associated adhesive strip surfaces completely break any adhesive bond previously established with an adhesive partner. To apply the tensile force, one of the two axial end sections of each adhesive strip 32 is designed as a pull tab 38. This pull tab has no adhesive properties and can be grasped with the fingers of one hand to exert the tensile force. Advantageously, the pull tab 38 has no self-adhesive properties, so that it does not adhere to the applied protective covers 35, 36.

[0082] The plurality of adhesive strips 32 of each self-adhesive unit 5 are aligned so that their pull tabs 38 all point in the same direction.

[0083] In the Fig. 3, the plurality of double-sided self-adhesive strips 32 are indicated by dashed lines for each self-adhesive unit 5, since they are covered by the second protective cover 36.

[0084] The partial figure according to Fig. Figure 3(a) shows a side view of a self-adhesive unit 5, from which it can be seen how the adhesive strips 32 are arranged in a sandwich-like manner between the two protective covers 35, 36, which can be removed in the manner indicated by dashed lines according to arrows 37 to expose the respectively associated adhesive surface 33, 34.

[0085] The aforementioned fastening plates 6 are included in the holding system 1 in a number corresponding to the number of positioning windows 16. They are expediently designed identically to one another and, in particular, are identical with regard to their peripheral contour 41 on the edge.

[0086] Each mounting plate 6 has two opposing large plate surfaces located on a front side 42 and a rear side 43 of the respective mounting plate 6. The peripheral contour 41 frames the front side 42 and the rear side 43.

[0087] The plate plane of each fastening plate 6 is spanned by an imaginary first plate axis 44 and an imaginary second plate axis 45 orthogonal thereto. These two plate axes 44, 45 are particularly evident from the partial illustration of the Fig. 3(b).

[0088] The peripheral contour 41 of each fastening plate 6 is matched to the peripheral contour 29 of a respective positioning window 16 defined by the frame body 22 in such a way that a fastening plate 6 can be inserted into each positioning window 16 with the rear side 43 facing forward. The resulting inserted position of the fastening plates 6, hereinafter also referred to as the insertion position, is determined, for example, from the Fig. 12 and Fig. 13 can be seen.

[0089] In the ready-to-use position of the holding system 1, the insertion position of each fastening plate 6 is simultaneously a fastening position in which the fastening plate 6 is glued within the associated positioning window 16 with its rear side 43 to the front adhesive surface 34 of the self-adhesive unit 5 located in the adhesive position in the positioning window 16. The fastening position is shown, for example, in the Fig. 13 and Fig. 16 can be seen.

[0090] Before a fastening plate 6 is inserted into a positioning window 16 for gluing, the self-adhesive unit 5 fixed therein in the gluing position is removed according to the Fig. 10 illustrated arrow 46 to remove the second protective cover 36 so that the front adhesive surface 34 is accessible for use.

[0091] By way of example, each fastening plate 6 is thus glued in its fastening position to the front adhesive surface 34 defined by all adhesive strips 32 of the associated self-adhesive unit 5 located in the adhesive position.

[0092] The positive engagement between each fastening plate 6 and the mounting frame 4 in the insertion or fastening position results in particular from the fact that the circumferential contours 29, 41 of the positioning window 16 and the fastening plate 6 are non-circular and, at the same time, complementary to one another. The circumferential contours 29, 41 are particularly coordinated with one another such that each fastening plate 6 can be inserted into the associated positioning window 16 for attachment in its fastening position only in a single relative position with respect to the mounting frame 4, this relative position being the aforementioned insertion position.

[0093] The positive adjustment is selected, for example, such that in the insertion position and consequently also in the fastening position, the first plate axis 44 of each fastening plate 6 runs parallel to the main frame axis 13 and the second plate axis 45 runs parallel to the secondary frame axis 15. The plate plane of each fastening plate 6 thus extends, in particular, parallel to the frame plane 14 of the mounting frame 4.

[0094] The rear side 43 of the fastening plate 6 is expediently designed to be flat, so that in the fastening position a large-area contact with the front adhesive surface 34 defined by all adhesive strips 32 is ensured.

[0095] On its front side 42, each mounting plate 6 is provided with a fastening structure 47, the preferred configuration of which will be described below. The fastening structure 47 allows, in particular, a detachable fastening of the object holder 7.

[0096] The object holder 7 has a coupling device 48, which is located on a rear side 51 of the object holder 7, which, for example, Fig. 3 is facing away from the viewer, so that the coupling device 48 is indicated by dashed lines due to a lack of direct visibility. The object holder 7 can be brought into positive engagement with the fastening structures 47 of all existing fastening plates 6 located in the fastening position via its coupling device 48, so that it is fastened jointly to all existing fastening plates 6.

[0097] For better differentiation, the position assumed by the object holder 7 in the attached state is referred to as the holding position of the object holder 7. The holding position can be seen, for example, from the Fig. 1, Fig. 2, Fig. 15 and Fig. 16 clearly visible.

[0098] In its holding position, the object holder 7 is positioned in front not only of the fastening plates 6, but also of the mounting frame 4 in a direction perpendicular to the frame plane 14 of the mounting frame 4, which, for ease of identification, is referred to below as the normal direction 52 of the mounting frame 4 and is indicated in the drawing by a dash-dotted line. The mounting frame 4 is at least partially covered on its front side 17 by the object holder 7. Preferably, the object holder 7 is designed according to the illustrated embodiment such that, in the holding position, it completely covers the mounting frame 4 when viewed from the front in the normal direction 52.

[0099] Each fastening plate 6 expediently has at least one support projection 53 on its edge, i.e., projecting laterally in the plane of the plate. For example, each fastening plate 6 is designed with several such support projections 53, which are distributed over the edge periphery of the fastening plate 6. Each support projection 53 protrudes from the fastening plate 6 in a wing-like or tongue-like manner.

[0100] In the Fig. 3, Fig. 4, Fig. 12 and Fig. Figure 13 shows a possible embodiment of fastening plates 6, in which one of two support projections 53 is arranged on each of the two edge sides of the fastening plate 6 facing in the axial direction of the first plate axis 44. Each support projection 53 has a longitudinal extension in the axial direction of the second plate axis 45, wherein the length dimensions are, in particular, different from one another. Each support projection 53 extends from one of the two edge sides of the fastening plate 6 facing in the axial direction of the second plate axis 45, preferably from opposite edge sides.

[0101] In the Fig. 11 and in the enlarged section of the Fig. Figure 13 shows, by way of example, another arrangement and design of the support projections 53. Here, two spaced-apart support projections 53 are located on one of the two edge sides facing the first plate axis 44, while on the opposite edge side, particularly in the center, only a single support projection 53 is present.

[0102] The support projections 53 contribute to defining the peripheral contour 41 of the fastening plate 6. They serve, in particular, to support the fastening plate 6 relative to the mounting frame 4 in the normal direction 52 when assuming the fastening position. The latter is achieved, for example, by the frame structures 21 of the mounting frame 4 surrounding a respective positioning window 16 being designed in such a way that they each have a plurality of support sections 54 projecting into the opening of the framed positioning window 16 in the frame plane 14, against which the fastening plates 6 rest with their support projections 53 from the front side 17 in their inserted position.

[0103] For example, each positioning window 16 on the rear side 18 of the mounting frame 4 is at least partially framed by a window frame 55 which is integrated in one piece into the frame body 22 and which defines the circumferential contour 29 of the positioning window 16 and which has a bulge 56 in the region of the support sections 54 which is filled by the support section 54 integrated into the frame body 22.

[0104] To ensure secure adhesion of the fastening plates 6, the fastening plates 6 should be pressed as firmly as possible against the self-adhesive units 5 during the assembly process. To facilitate this pressing, the holding system 1 is expediently equipped with a manually operable pressing tool 57, which can be used to exert a pressing force.

[0105] The pressing tool 57 has an elongated shape, for example a rod or strip-shaped shape, and has a handle section 58 which can be grasped with one hand, as well as a pressing section 61 which is arranged in particular on the front side and is preferably contoured in a strip-like manner. The pressing tool 57 can be used during the assembly of the holding system 1 in such a way that it can be grasped with one hand at the handle section 58 and pressed against the pressing section 61 according to Fig. 13 is pressed against the front side 42 of the respective fastening plate 6. The pressing takes place in particular in a back-and-forth rubbing movement 62 along the rear side 43, indicated by a double arrow.

[0106] To promote targeted pressing, it is expedient if each fastening plate 6 has a structurally visible pressing track 63 extending along the covered adhesive strip 32 on the front side 42 in each area that, in the fastening position, covers an adhesive strip 32 of the associated self-adhesive unit 5. The pressing tool 57 can be pressed against the pressing track 63 with its pressing section 61 and rubbed along it.

[0107] Preferably, each pressure track 63 is formed according to the illustrated embodiment by a longitudinal groove-like recess of the fastening plate 6 on the front side 42.

[0108] According to the Fig. 9, the pressing tool 57 can also be used by appropriate handling to press the self-adhesive units 5 into their adhesive position on the wall 2.

[0109] For the secure storage of the pressing tool 57, which is provided as an individual component, when not in use, a Fig. 14. After completion of its use and before assembly of the object holder 7, the pressing tool 57 can be inserted into the receiving recess 64 with releasable fixation. Preferably, the inserted pressing tool 57 is held easily removable from the object holder 7 by locking means.

[0110] In the illustrated embodiment, each fastening plate 6 has a preferred configuration of the fastening structure 47, in which each fastening structure 47 has a plurality of fastening slots 65 formed with a mutually parallel longitudinal orientation on the front side 42 of a respective fastening plate 6. For example, the fastening slots 65 extend in the axial direction of the second plate axis 45, so that they run vertically in the horizontal use configuration of the holding system 1. When a fastening plate 6 assumes the inserted position, its fastening slots 65 extend in the axial direction of the secondary frame axis 15 of the mounting frame 4.

[0111] The plurality of fastening slots 65, which are present in a number of two pieces, are arranged at a distance from one another transversely to their longitudinal extent.

[0112] Each fastening slot 65 has an undercut cross-sectional contour. The slot cross-section is preferably T-shaped, with a longitudinal slot opening 66 at the front side 42 and a wider anchoring section 67 adjoining it in the direction of the slot depth. Each fastening slot 65 also has an insertion opening 68 open at the front end, which points vertically upward in the fastening position. At the opposite axial end, the respective fastening slot 65 is closed.

[0113] Each mounting plate 6 may alternatively have more than two mounting slots 65 or only a single mounting slot 65.

[0114] The coupling device 48 of the object holder 7 contains, by way of example, a plurality of coupling projections 69, the number of which corresponds to the total number of fastening slots 65 of all fastening plates 6 of the holding system 1.

[0115] The object holder 7 has an imaginary main axis 72, which coincides, for example, with the longitudinal axis of the object holder 7, which preferably has a longitudinal shape. The coupling projections 69 are arranged in a row at a distance from one another in the axial direction of the main axis 72. The mutual spacings correspond to the mutual spacings of the fastening slots 65 of the fastening plates 6 in the fastening position.

[0116] Each coupling projection 69 has a cross-section complementary to a fastening slot 65 and, for example, has a neck portion 73 and a wider head portion 74 in relation thereto. With the preferably web-shaped neck portion 73, each coupling projection 69 is fastened at the rear to an object holder main body 75 of the object holder 7.

[0117] For mounting on the mounting plates 6, the object holder 7 can be moved according to arrow 76 in Fig. 14 are pushed onto the fastening plates 6 in such a way that the coupling projections 69 engage positively into the fastening slots 65 through the insertion openings 68. The insertion direction illustrated by the arrow 76 runs vertically in the horizontally oriented usage configuration of the holding system 1.

[0118] The fastening slots 65 are in particular positioned such that they each lie opposite an area which lies between two adjacent adhesive strips 32 of the associated self-adhesive unit 5.

[0119] The frame body 22 of the mounting frame 4 expediently has a funnel-like insertion structure 77 in the peripheral area of ​​each positioning window 16, which facilitates the threading of the coupling projections 69 into the individual fastening slots 65 during the insertion assembly of the object holder 7 according to arrow 76. The insertion structures 77 are positioned such that they are each arranged in the axial extension of a fastening slot 65 of the fastening plate 6 placed in the fastening position on the mounting frame 4. For example, the insertion structures 77 are located in the longitudinal webs 27 arranged vertically at the top when the mounting frame 4 is horizontally aligned.

[0120] The object holder 7, for example, has a plate-shaped object holder main body 75, which has a particularly longitudinal shape, so that the shape can also be described as strip-shaped. This gives the object holder 7 an overall appealing plate-shaped or strip-shaped appearance. One of the two large plate surfaces of the object holder 7 defines the rear side 51 of the object holder 7, the other a front side 78 facing away from the mounting frame 4 in the normal direction 52 in the holding position.

[0121] In the aforementioned embodiment, a holding structure 11 designed as a suspension recess 11b is formed in the region of an upper longitudinal edge 82 of the object holder 7 and extends in the axial direction of the holder's main axis 72.

[0122] In a Fig. 2, the object holder main body 75 has an L-shaped configuration, wherein a leg section 83 which is vertical in the holding position has the coupling device 48 on the rear side and a horizontal leg section 84 projecting forward defines a holding structure 11 designed as a storage plate 11a.

[0123] In the ready-to-use configuration of the holding system 1 mounted on a particularly vertical wall 2, the mounting frame 4 is in the wall position, each double-sided adhesive self-adhesive unit 5 is in the adhesive position, each fastening plate 6 is in the fastening position and the object holder 7 is in the holding position.

[0124] With additional explanation of further design features, a particularly advantageous sequence of a method for assembling the holding system 1 is described below.

[0125] The starting point of the method is a holding system 1 in its not yet assembled components in the design according to Fig. 3. With these individual parts, the holding system 1 can be provided with suitable packaging for its intended use.

[0126] In one of Fig. In the first method step shown in Figure 5, the protective covers 35 of the two adhesive strips 24 of the self-adhesive device 23 are removed from the mounting frame 4.

[0127] In one of Fig. In the second method step shown in Figure 6, the mounting frame 4 is held with its rear side 18, which has the self-adhesive device 23, facing forward against the wall 2 to be fitted, aligned as desired using the leveling device 28, and manually pressed firmly against the wall 2 in the aligned position. In this way, the mounting frame 4 is firmly glued in the desired wall position, with the main frame axis 13 aligned horizontally. The pressing force can be introduced into the mounting frame 4, for example, with a finger of each hand in the area in which one of the two adhesive strips 24 is located on the rear.

[0128] In a subsequent third process step, the self-adhesive units 5 are glued into their adhesive position on the wall 2. A preparatory step for this is described in Fig. 7 and consists in removing the rear, first protective cover 35 from the rear adhesive surface 33 of the self-adhesive units 5. After this preparation step, the self-adhesive units 5 are Fig. 8 are successively glued to the wall 2 with their rear adhesive surface 33 through one of the positioning windows 16 to assume their adhesive position. During this gluing process, all adhesive strips 32 of a respective self-adhesive unit 5 are simultaneously glued to the wall 2.

[0129] The adhesive positions are in Fig. 8 in the area of ​​the positioning window 16 is indicated by dashed lines. Preferably, only the section of the self-adhesive unit 5 having the rear adhesive surface 33 is positioned in the respective positioning window 16. The section of the self-adhesive unit 5 having the pull tabs 38, referred to as the pull tab section 39, expediently remains outside the positioning window 16 and rests on the front side 17 on the lower longitudinal web 27 of the frame body 22, so that it is easily accessible for possible later removal. The area occupied by the self-adhesive unit 5 is therefore preferably larger than the opening area of ​​the respectively assigned positioning window 16.

[0130] However, the self-adhesive units 5 can also be designed such that in the adhesive position they lie entirely within a positioning window 16.

[0131] In one of Fig. In the fourth method step shown in Figure 9, the self-adhesive units 5 are pressed firmly against the wall 2 by using the pressing tool 57. For this purpose, the pressing tool 57 is placed with its pressing section 61 in the area of ​​the adhesive strips 32 on the still-applied rear protective cover 35 and moved back and forth according to arrow 85, performing a rubbing process.

[0132] The pressing tool 57 can have an optical indicator 86 in the area of ​​the pressing section 61, which indicates to the user when a sufficiently high pressing force is applied. This can, for example, be a display element that is movable relative to a housing of the pressing tool 57. In a subsequent Fig. In the method step illustrated in Figure 10, the front, second protective cover 36 is removed one after the other from all self-adhesive units 5 fixed in the adhesive position according to arrow 46, so that the front adhesive surfaces 34 are exposed.

[0133] In a subsequent, in Fig. In the sixth method step illustrated in Figure 11, the fastening plates 6 are inserted one after the other with their rear side 43 first into the positioning window 16 assigned to them. Fig. 11, the backs 43 of the fastening plates 6 come into contact with the front adhesive surfaces 34 and are glued in place. For each fastening plate 6, simultaneous adhesion to all adhesive strips 32 of the associated self-adhesive unit 5 occurs.

[0134] Due to the coordinated circumferential contours 29 of the positioning windows 16 and the peripheral contours 41 of the mounting plates 6, the insertion of the mounting plates 6 is only possible in a specific mutual spatial alignment of the mounting frame 4 and the mounting plate 6. The alignment is based on a positive fit between the components on both sides. This ensures, for example, that each mounted mounting plate 6 is aligned such that its first plate axis 44 runs parallel to the main frame axis 13 and is accordingly horizontally aligned. This, in turn, results in the mounting slots 65 each being aligned with a vertical longitudinal extension.

[0135] In the Fig. 12, the relative position in relation to the mounting frame 4 is shown by means of a fastening plate 6 brought into the insertion position. Further fastening plates 6 are shown in the Fig. 12 are not shown, nor are the self-adhesive units 5.

[0136] After the initial bonding of the fastening plates 6 to the associated self-adhesive units 5, increased pressure is exerted on each fastening plate 6 in order to achieve the desired bond strength. This is advantageously done within the framework of a Fig. 13 illustrated seventh method step using the already mentioned pressing tool 57. The same is placed on the front side 42 of the respective fastening plate 6 and then moved back and forth on the front side 42 while simultaneously exerting pressure and performing the rubbing movement 62.

[0137] The pressure tracks 63 allow for targeted application of the pressing tool 57. The width of each pressure track 63 and the width of the pressing section 61 are adapted to each other such that the pressing section 61 moves along one of the adhesive strips 32 during the rubbing movement 62. The groove-like design of the pressure track 63 supports correct application and provides a linear guide for the rubbing movement 62.

[0138] The self-adhesive units 5 and fastening plates 6 are adapted to each other in terms of their dimensions in such a way that the pull tab 38 of each adhesive strip 32 of the self-adhesive unit 5 located in the adhesive position is not covered by the fastening plate 6 occupying the fastening position. This embodiment is shown in the Fig. 13. In this way, the pull tabs 38 are easily accessible when the object holder 7 is not mounted, so that they can be grasped for the purpose of performing a tensile debonding, i.e., for introducing a tensile force to release the adhesive bond.

[0139] At this point it should be noted that the assembly process can also be carried out without using a special pressing tool 57 by simply using another suitable object or even directly the finger of one hand to apply the required adhesive force.

[0140] In a subsequent, from Fig. In the eighth method step shown in Figure 14, the object holder 7 is mounted in its holding position. For this purpose, it is simultaneously placed onto all mounting plates 6 from above, as shown by arrow 76, in the axial direction of the secondary frame axis 15, whereby the coupling device 48 comes into positive engagement with the individual mounting structures 47. If appropriately equipped, the pressing tool 57 can be stowed in the receiving recess 64 beforehand.

[0141] From the Fig. Figure 15 shows the holding position of the object holder 7 after it has been attached. It is clearly visible that the object holder 7 completely covers the mounting frame 4, as well as the mounting plates 6 and the self-adhesive units 5.

[0142] The holding system 1 is now in the ready-to-use configuration. It can now be Fig. 15, the object 3, indicated only by dashed lines, can be applied to the object holder 7 in such a way that it is held by the object holder 7. The object holder 7 shown as an example has, in the region of its vertically upwardly facing longitudinal edge as a holding structure 11, a suspension recess 11b into which an object provided with a hook structure 12 can be releasably suspended, so that it extends in the region of the front side 78 of the object holder 7.

[0143] As an alternative to the illustrated object holder 7, an object holder according to Fig. 2 can be fastened to the fastening plates 6 in order to use a holding structure 11 designed as a storage plate 11a for depositing an object 3.

[0144] The ready-to-use position can be removed at any time if necessary. In other words, the holding system 1 can be easily removed from the wall 2 if necessary. This can be done, for example, by moving the object holder 7 according to the dot-dash arrow 87 of the Fig. 14 is pulled off the fastening plates 6, and then the adhesive bonds created by the self-adhesive units 5 are released by pulling on the pull tabs 38 of the adhesive strips 32. This allows for easy removal of the fastening plates 6 and the self-adhesive units 5. Finally, only the mounting frame 4 needs to be detached from the wall 2, which is facilitated by the fact that only a low adhesive force is selected for the self-adhesive device 23, so that residue-free removal is possible. Alternatively, the self-adhesive device 23 can also be implemented using pull-release adhesive strips.
