Abstract
Description
[0001] The invention relates to a device for attaching a textile web according to the preamble of claim 1.
[0002] For presentation purposes at trade fairs, it is known to suspend printed textiles in a profile or to stretch them on partition walls formed from profile elements connected to each other via special connectors. For this purpose, the profile is designed as a keder profile, and a cylindrical keder is attached to the textile, which is inserted into the slotted bore arranged in the keder profile. Keder profiles designed as C-profiles are also known. For such a keder profile, keders with a rectangular cross-section are used, which are inserted into the keder profile. On their reverse side, opposite the keder receptacle, the profiles regularly have a C-profile section for receiving fasteners, in particular T-nuts for connection to a frame profile or for receiving support elements.
[0003] A disadvantage of the known presentation devices is that attaching a textile panel by inserting the keder attached to it is very time-consuming. Furthermore, the keder is subject to increasing wear and tear with repeated use due to abrasion from being inserted and removed from the keder profile.
[0004] The invention aims to remedy this problem. The invention is based on the objective of providing a device for suspending a textile web that enables simple and low-wear fastening of a textile web equipped with a keder. According to the invention, this objective is achieved by a device with the features of the characterizing part of claim 1.
[0005] The invention provides a device for suspending a textile web, enabling simple and low-wear fastening of a textile web with a
[0006] The design allows for the use of a textile web equipped with a keder (welt). The first recess is formed by a longitudinally extending U-profile section, enabling easy insertion of the keder. A second recess, spaced apart from the first in the direction of the C-profile section, contains a pivoting hinge profile that rests against the first recess in its end-position pivot position, thus facilitating easy fixation of the keder within the first recess.
[0007] In a further development of the invention, the second receptacle is designed as a channel with a substantially circular arc-shaped cross-section, wherein the folding profile has a longitudinally extending, substantially cylindrical projection which is incorporated into the second receptacle and by means of which the folding profile is pivotably mounted in the second receptacle. This achieves a hinge-like pivot connection between the folding profile and the retaining profile.
[0008] In an embodiment of the invention, the molded part is provided with a longitudinally extending cutout, preferably formed by two plane surfaces angled towards each other. The second receptacle has a stop edge against which the cutout rests in the end-position pivot position of the folding profile. This allows for easy assembly of the folding profile in the second receptacle. After the molded part is inserted into the second receptacle, it is secured in the second receptacle after pivoting the folding profile. The opening of the second receptacle is dimensioned such that it corresponds approximately to the reduced diameter of the molded part, which can be inserted through the opening into the second receptacle.
[0009] In a further embodiment of the invention, the folding profile has a stop rib, preferably extending over its entire width and spaced apart from its transverse side opposite the molded area, with which the folding profile rests against the first receptacle in its end-position pivot position. This allows a textile web to be clamped between the retaining profile and the stop rib.
[0010] In a further development of the invention, at least one bore is arranged in the end section of the hinged profile bounded by the stop bar. When the stop bar rests against the first receptacle, this bore aligns with a threaded bore provided in the first receptacle. This allows the insertion of at least one fastening screw, which can be screwed through the bore and into the threaded bore, thereby reliably connecting the textile web to the retaining profile. Tightening the screw also increases the contact pressure of the stop bar against the retaining profile, allowing the textile web to be clamped between the hinged profile and the retaining plate.
[0011] In an embodiment of the invention, the folding profile has a first locking tab on its side facing the retaining profile, which is locked in the end-position pivot position of the folding profile with a second locking tab arranged on the retaining profile for this purpose. This prevents the folding profile from pivoting open automatically.
[0012] In a further embodiment of the invention, the first locking lug extends over the entire length of the folding profile and / or the second locking lug extends over the entire length of the retaining profile. This improves the holding force of the locking connection between the folding profile and the retaining profile.
[0013] In a further development of the invention, the holding device and / or the folding profile is made of aluminum, preferably as an aluminum casting, and in particular as an aluminum extrusion. This results in a weight-reduced device.
[0014] In one embodiment of the invention, the retaining profile has a flat back wall, via which the first receptacle is connected to the C-profile section, the second receptacle being arranged on the C-profile section and connected to the back wall via a connecting web above the first receptacle, the connecting web forming an acute angle with the back wall. This results in a material-reduced design, thereby enabling a further reduction in the device's weight.
[0015] The invention further relates to a presentation device with such a device according to claim 10.
[0016] In a further development of the invention, a screw is guided through at least one bore of the hinged profile, which penetrates the textile web and is screwed into a threaded bore of the first receptacle. This ensures reliable securing of the textile web under maximized clamping pressure between the retaining profile and the hinged profile.
[0017] Other embodiments and configurations of the invention are specified in the remaining dependent claims. Exemplary embodiments of the invention are illustrated in the drawings and are described in detail below.

[0018] The device chosen as an exemplary embodiment for suspending a textile web comprises a retaining profile 1 and a hinged profile 2 pivotably connected to it. In the exemplary embodiment, the hinged profile 1 and the retaining plate 2 are each manufactured as an extruded aluminum part.
[0019] The retaining profile 1 is formed in one piece and comprises a C-profile section 11. One leg 111 of the C-profile section 11 transitions into a flat back wall 12, which in turn transitions into a leg 121 of a first receptacle 13 for receiving a keder 31 of a textile web 3, which is formed by a longitudinally extending U-profile section. A second receptacle 14, essentially in the form of a hollow cylinder slotted longitudinally by a gap 141, is arranged on the C-profile section 11, the gap 141 of which is bounded by insertion ramps 142. The second receptacle 14 is connected to the back wall 12 via a connecting web 15. In the exemplary embodiment, the connecting web 15 forms an angle of 45° with the back wall 12.On the connecting web 15, a locking web 16 is arranged on its side opposite the rear wall 12, extending longitudinally along the entire length of the connecting web 15 parallel to the second receptacle 14. The locking web 16 has a locking lug 161 on its side facing the first receptacle 11.
[0020] The hinged profile 2 comprises a substantially rectangular base plate 21, which transitions into a projection 22 on one longitudinal side. The projection 22 is substantially cylindrical and features a longitudinally extending cutout formed by two perpendicularly oriented planar surfaces, a sliding surface 221 and a stop surface 222.
[0021] A stop rib 23, extending across the entire width of the hinged profile 2, is arranged at a distance from its transverse side opposite the molded part 22. This stop rib is positioned orthogonally to the base plate 21 and extends along the entire length of the hinged profile 2. In a modified embodiment, the stop rib can also extend only partially, for example, in a comb-like fashion, along the length of the hinged profile 2. The stop rib 23 defines an end section 24 of the hinged profile 2, into which longitudinally spaced bores 25 are provided. When the stop rib 23 rests against the first receptacle 13, these bores align with a threaded bore 17 provided in the first receptacle 13 (the bore 25 and threaded bore 17 are only visible in the Figure 1 a) ) shown).
[0022] On its side facing the retaining profile 1, a first locking lug 26 is arranged between the molded section 22 and the stop rib 23, which is locked to the second locking lug 16 arranged on the retaining profile 1 in the end-position pivot position of the folding profile 2. For this purpose, the first locking lug 26 has an angled section 261 which is held behind the locking lug 161 of the second locking lug 16.
[0023] In the Figure 3 a) bis e)The structure of a presentation device is shown as an example. Eight devices of the type described above are used, in which four textile panels 3 are tensioned.

The corner profiles 52 are cuboid in shape and each have a keder receptacle 522 on their side opposite the C-profile section 521, designed in the form of a double U-profile section (see figure). Fig. 3b) ).
[0025] The four rectangular textile panels 3 are each provided on their four sides with a keder 31, which is designed as a cuboid flat keder. The keders 31 arranged on the transverse sides of each textile panel 3 are each inserted into a U-shaped receptacle of the keder receptacle 522 of two adjacent corner profiles, so that each keder receptacle 522 receives two keders 31, namely one keder 31 from each of two adjacent textile panels 3. The keders 31 arranged on the longitudinal sides of each textile panel 3 are each inserted into a first receptacle 13 of two parallel retaining profiles 1 of the two frames 5 (see figure). Figure 3d) ) whereupon the folding profiles 2 are pivoted into their end position swivel position and subsequently screwed into the threaded bores 17 of the retaining profile via screws 4, which penetrate the respective textile web 3 through the bores 25 of the folding profiles 23 (see Figure 3e)In the exemplary embodiment, the length of the screws 4 is chosen such that they protrude through the threaded bores 16, whereby the keder 31 inserted in the first receptacles 13 are pressed against the rear wall 12 which limits the first receptacle.
[0026] In the exemplary embodiment, the retaining profiles 1 of the upper frame 5 are suspended on cables 6, which are attached to the retaining profiles via coupling pieces 61, which can be inserted into the C-profile sections 11 of the retaining profiles 1 and tensioned against them.
