Description

Description Drilling jig for eccentric screw dowel connectors field of technology

[0001] The invention relates to a device for drilling holes for an eccentric screw dowel connector, wherein a first stop plate has guide openings arranged in a line for guiding a first drill bit with a small diameter and a second drill bit with a larger diameter. A second stop plate can be fixed to an underside of the first stop plate by means of fixing elements such that an inner side of the second stop plate can assume various distances from the guide openings. State of the art

[0002] An eccentric screw dowel connector is used to connect two panels, particularly the carcass panels of a piece of furniture, at an butt or right angle. Three holes are drilled into the end face of a first panel. A middle hole accommodates an eccentric bolt that is attached to a second panel. The two outer holes are for dowels. The diameter of these holes is usually 8 mm. Two outer holes with an 8 mm diameter are drilled into the second panel at corresponding positions, but at the edge of the wide side, to accommodate the dowels, and a middle hole with a smaller diameter, usually 4 mm. However, there are also applications in which the diameter of the holes for the dowels is 5 mm, 6 mm or 10 mm. The diameter of the middle hole can also have a different value, for example 5 mm.The eccentric bolt is screwed into this central hole. Additionally. A hole for an eccentric disc must be drilled on the wide side of the first panel. The hole must be level with the middle hole there. The diameter of this hole is usually 15 mm. A common diameter is also 25 mm. An eccentric disc is inserted into this hole, into which the eccentric bolt projects when installed. By turning the eccentric disc, a tensile force can be applied to the eccentric bolt. Such a corner connection or butt connection can be released by turning the eccentric disc. Such holes are to be created using a device of this type. To ensure that the holes are each the same distance from an edge of the two panels, a stop element is provided which must rest against the edge when the device is in use. The guide openings can be used to guide the drill with the larger diameter in order to drill the holes for the dowels and the eccentric bolt.To drill the mounting hole for the eccentric bolt, the center hole must guide the drill bit with the smaller diameter. The second stop plate has a guide opening for a Forstner bit, located at the height of the center hole.

[0003] A generic device is described in CN 205021701 U.

[0004] A similar device is described in CN 2017020798. This device features drill sleeves with a threaded section that can be screwed into the internal thread of an insert located in a window of the first stop plate. To use drills with different diameters, the drill sleeves must be exchanged.

[0005] CN 215038248 and DE 10 2021 116 002 A1 each describe a drilling jig with an insert piece that has a guide opening for guiding a Forstner bit.

[0006] A doweling drilling jig is already known from DE 698 15 870 T2. This also discloses a drill bit with a stop body mounted on its shaft.

[0007] US 4,145,160 describes a drilling jig with guide holes formed by sleeves.

[0008] CN 204525670 U describes a drilling jig with a second stop plate movably attached to a first stop plate. Summary of the invention

[0009] The invention is based on the object of developing a generic device in a manner that is advantageous in use.

[0010] This object is achieved by the features specified in the claims, wherein the subclaims not only describe advantageous developments of the device specified in the independent claims, but also represent independent solutions to the problem.

[0011] According to a first aspect of the invention, a device for drilling holes for an eccentric screw dowel connector is proposed, which has two stop plates. A first stop plate has three guide openings for guiding a drill bit each. The guide openings can be arranged in a line. It is provided that the three guide openings have the same inner diameter. This inner diameter corresponds to the outer diameter of the drill with the larger diameter, which is in particular 8 mm. However, the invention also includes devices in which the drill has a different diameter, for example 5 mm, 6 mm or 10 mm. The inner diameter is then adapted to this diameter. In order to be able to guide the drill with the smaller diameter, a sleeve element is used according to the invention which can be inserted into one of the guide openings, in particular into the middle guide opening. The sleeve element can be made of metal, in particular steel. It can be connected to the first stop plate in a rotationally fixed manner. In particular, it can be releasably inserted axially into the guide opening. The sleeve element can have a sleeve which has an outer diameter that corresponds to the inner diameter of the guide opening. The outer diameter of the sleeve can accordingly also be 4 mm, 5 mm, 6 mm or 10 mm.A collar with a larger diameter can be connected to the sleeve so that it can rest on the edge of the guide opening. The collar can be connected to the sleeve section in the same material. The sleeve section has an outer diameter that essentially corresponds to the inner diameter of the guide opening. The outer diameter of the collar is larger. A clamping element is provided with which the sleeve element can be fastened to the shaft of the drill. The clamping element can be a grub screw that can be screwed into the collar in a radial direction relative to the axis of the drill. It is therefore provided that the distance between the sleeve element and the tip of the shaft of the drill is adjustable. It can be advantageous if the catches of the sleeve section correspond to the axial catches of the guide opening.When fully inserted, a collar end face adjacent to the sleeve portion rests on the edge of the opening. The opposite end face of the sleeve portion can then lie in the same plane as the underside of the stop plate 1. Means can also be used. be provided with which the sleeve element can be connected to the shaft of the drill in a rotationally fixed manner. For this purpose, for example, a grub screw can be screwed into a threaded opening in the collar. The latter is particularly advantageous if the bore is only to have a predetermined depth. The sleeve element can then simultaneously act as a stop body. Before the bore with the smaller diameter is drilled, the sleeve element can be fastened to the shaft of the drill at a defined distance from the tip of the shaft of the drill. The sleeve of the sleeve element then rotates within the guide opening. The guide opening has a defined axial length. The cylindrical sleeve section of the sleeve element can be fully inserted into the guide opening. The axial length of the sleeve section can correspond to the axial length of the guide opening.Preferably, however, the axial length of the sleeve section is slightly shorter than the axial length of the guide opening. A collar of the sleeve element can serve as a stop function. If the collar is located on a front side of the guide opening, the front side of the sleeve section opposite the collar is only slightly spaced from the surface of the workpiece. If the sleeve element is used as a stop element, it can be fixed to the drill shaft. The penetration depth of the drill is defined by the distance between the tip of the drill and the front side of the sleeve element facing away from the collar.

[0012] According to a second aspect of the invention, which can be advantageously combined with the first aspect of the invention, the guide openings are each formed by sleeves made of a harder material. The sleeves can be made of metal. These sleeves can be pressed into a plastic base body. This base body can either be the first stop plate or an insert body that is fastened in the first stop plate. The sleeves preferably extend over the entire material thickness of the section of the stop plate that forms the guide openings.

[0013] According to a third aspect of the invention, which can be advantageously combined with the two aspects described above, the guide openings are formed by an insert piece that is fastened in a window of the first stop plate. The insert piece can be inserted into the window from an underside of the stop plate. The insert piece can have a circumferential collar that lies in a recess in the edge of the window, so that the underside of the insert piece lies flush with the underside of the stop plate. The outline of the edge of the collar can have a wave shape. Fastening screws can be provided that hold the insert piece in the window from the underside of the stop plate.For this purpose, opposing extensions of the collar, which in particular have curved edges, can have through-holes through which the fastening screws, preferably designed as countersunk screws, can be inserted. The stop plate can have a counter-thread. The counter-thread is preferably formed by a nut that is non-rotatably seated in a recess in the upper side.

[0014] According to a further aspect of the invention, which can be advantageously combined with the previously described aspects, a section forming the guide openings, for example the previously described insert piece or a support of the guide openings integrally connected to the stop plate, can protrude beyond an upper side opposite the underside. This allows the stop plate to be designed flat, for example with a material thickness of less than 10 mm. The axial length of the guide openings is then at least Twice the thickness of the stop plate. The section extending beyond the top can also be used as a handle.

[0015] According to a further aspect of the invention, which can be advantageously combined with the previously described aspects, at least one of the stop plates can have one or more markings. The markings can be arranged on the line in which the guide openings are located, so that these markings can be used to center the device relative to a line applied to the workpiece. However, it is also possible to use these markings to adjust the distance between the inside of the second stop plate and the centers of the guide openings. One or more markings can be provided that mark a second line that runs transversely to the previously described first line through the guide openings and that preferably runs through the center of the central guide opening. The first stop plate can also have a notch through the center of which the second line runs.The second stop plate can also have markings. The marking is preferably in a plane that runs perpendicular to the second line. The central guide opening and a guide opening of the second stop plate are preferably located in this plane. The markings can each be formed by elongated windows into which isosceles triangles protrude from the narrow sides. The two opposite vertices of the triangles define points on a straight line. The triangles have a thinner material than the stop plates in the area of ​​the edge of the window. The markings are arranged in particular close to the narrow edge or the long edge of the stop plate. However, it is also possible to use rectangles instead of triangles, each extending over approximately a quarter of the window, so that two diagonally opposite corners have reduced material thickness. Rectangular projections, adjacent to which rectangular free spaces are located, are arranged. Such markings are arranged, in particular, as a group, diagonally to an edge, in order to adjust the distance between the second stop plate and the guide openings. This allows the device to be adapted to different board thicknesses. The fixing hole for the fixing screw, which connects the two stop plates to each other, can be designed as an elongated hole in this configuration. This allows for continuous distance adjustment.

[0016] According to a further aspect of the invention, which can be advantageously combined with the previously described aspects, the second stop plate has the previously described guide opening for guiding a drill bit, with which the bore for receiving the eccentric disc can be created. This is preferably done with a Forstner bit. A guide element can also be provided, which can be connected to the edge of this guide opening and which has an inner diameter corresponding to the outer diameter of a drill bit, in particular a Forstner bit. The head of the drill bit, which has the cutting edges, can have a larger diameter than the inner diameter or the outer diameter of the drill bit shaft. When using such a guide element, the guide opening does not need to perform a guiding function. Its diameter can therefore be larger than the outer diameter of the head of the drill bit.

[0017] According to a further aspect of the invention, which can be advantageously combined with the previously described aspects, the two stop plates are each made of plastic or metal, for example aluminum, and each have a ribbed structure on their rear sides. This can be a honeycomb-like ribbed structure or another type of rib structure. The second stop plate can have a narrow side with a plurality of equally spaced screw-in openings. Threaded shafts of fixing screws can be screwed into the screw-in openings, with which the two stop plates can be connected to one another in such a way that a T-shape is created in cross-section. The first stop plate can have several rows of fixing holes that form groups, with the fixing holes of a group each lying on a line that has an inclination angle to the first line. By selecting the fixing hole, the distance of the second stop plate from the first line can be adjusted. Preferably, four such groups are provided. Nuts can be located in the screw-in openings, into whose internal thread the fixing screw can be screwed. The fixing holes can have a circular cross-section.However, these can also be elongated holes, particularly slots that run diagonally to an edge of the stop plate. It is also possible for the fixing hole to be designed as an elongated hole that extends perpendicular to the line on which the guide openings are located. With this design, the device is not adapted to different board thicknesses by using different fixing holes. Instead, the adjustment is achieved using the markings described above.

[0018] According to a further aspect of the invention, which can be advantageously combined with the previously described aspect, a stop element is provided. The stop element can be attached to one of the stop plates at a predetermined spacing and projects into the space defined by the inner side of the second stop plate and the underside of the first stop plate. Preferably, the stop element is formed by a stop pin with a head and a shaft. The shaft can be inserted through a bore in the first or second stop plate. be inserted through, wherein this bore advantageously lies on the first line. In a symmetrical arrangement to the plane described above, in which the second line runs, two bores for inserting the stop element can be provided. The two stop plates can in particular have a folding symmetry with respect to this plane. The second stop plate can also have bores lying on a line for inserting the stop element. The lines on which the two bores for inserting the stop element extend preferably lie in a longitudinal center plane of the first stop plate and the second stop plate, respectively.

[0019] According to a further aspect of the invention, which can be advantageously combined with the previously described aspects, one of the two stop plates has one or more setting gauges for adjusting the distance between the tip of a drill bit shank and a stop body attached to the shank. The setting gauge can be a recess, in particular a trough-shaped recess, in a broad side surface of the stop plate. The diameter of the recess is only slightly larger than the diameter of the drill bit shank or the outer diameter of a sleeve element through which the drill bit extends. The recess opens into a narrow side of the stop plate and forms an opening there.A scale extends along the edge of the recess, the zero point of which is offset from the opening of the recess by the dimension. This allows the distance by which the drill bit penetrates the workpiece to be adjusted when a stop body rests on the edge surrounding the opening until the stop body hits the edge surrounding the guide opening. The zero point of the scale can be offset from the lateral opening of the recess. The dimension of this offset preferably corresponds to the axial length. one of the guide holes or all guide holes that have the same axial length.

[0020] According to a further aspect of the invention, the device can also be used to produce a row of holes. The holes, for example for inserting shelf supports, are typically 32 mm apart in furniture construction. The diameter of these holes is usually 5 mm. According to the invention, the guide openings can be spaced apart by a distance that corresponds exactly to the standard hole spacing of a row of holes in furniture construction, i.e. 32 mm. By means of a guide, e.g. another workpiece, a guide edge can be created along which the device can be slid. A mandrel can be inserted into the last hole in the row of holes and protrudes through one of the guide openings. If the guide opening has a diameter that is larger than the standard diameter, for example 5 mm, a reducing sleeve can be used which is inserted into the guide opening. The inner diameter of this reducing sleeve is 5 mm.A mandrel can be inserted through the first guide hole and into the last hole in the row. Using the two remaining guide holes, two more holes can then be drilled at standard spacing, for which the reducing sleeve can be used.

[0021] According to a further aspect of the invention, workpieces can also be butt-jointed or joined at right angles without using an eccentric clamping element. In this case, the guide openings are used exclusively to drill holes for dowels.

[0022] The fixture is used to drill holes for an eccentric screw dowel connector. The fixture can also be used to create a row of holes or to connect workpieces using dowels alone. Short description of the drawings

Description of the embodiments

[0024] The first embodiment shown in Figures 1 to 16 has a substantially rectangular first stop plate 1 made of plastic and a substantially rectangular second stop plate 2 also made of plastic, wherein the widths and lengths of the two stop plates 1, 2 can be substantially identical.

[0025] The first stop plate 1 has three guide openings 4, 5, 6, which are located on a first line LI running in a center line between two longitudinal edges of the stop plate 1. The guide openings 4, 5, 6 are formed by an insert 3, which is inserted into a window 7 of the stop plate 1. The insert 3 forms a circumferential collar 8, which in the When inserted, it rests in a circumferential recess 9 of the window 7. The recess 9 is located on the underside 1" of the stop plate 1. The window 7 and the edge or collar 8 of the insert piece 3 are wave-shaped.

[0026] The insert 3 has a greater material thickness than the stop plate 1. In the assembled state, the insert 3 forms a raised portion in the center of the upper side 1' in the shape of a base. This can be used as a handle. The guide openings 4, 5, 6 open into the end face of the insert 3. The guide openings 4, 5, 6 are each formed by a sleeve 10, which is made, in particular, of metal. The sleeves 10 have the same inner diameter D0, which is preferably 8 mm.

[0027] The top side also contains hexagonal recesses arranged on the first line LI, each of which houses a nut 12. A fastening screw 11 is screwed into this nut 12 from the bottom side 1"; this fastening screw has a countersunk head and passes through a fastening opening of an extension of the collar 8. The insert piece 3 is connected to the first stop plate 1 at two diametrically opposite ends by two fastening screws 11.

[0028] On line LI, there are also two holes 15, into each of which a stop element 14 can be inserted. The stop element 14 has a head 14" and a shaft 14'. The shaft protrudes 1" beyond the underside.

[0029] On the LI line there are also two markers 42. The markers preferably consist of a window in the shape of a elongated rectangle. Isosceles triangles 40' extend from the narrow sides of the window into the window area. The vertices of the 40' triangles lie on the line LI.

[0030] A second line L2, which is perpendicular to the first line L1, runs through the axis of the central guide opening 5. The second line L2 runs through another marking 40, which has the previously described shape. Furthermore, the line L2 runs through a notch 41, which has two parallel walls, which are spaced apart by a distance corresponding to the diameter D0 of the guide opening 5.

[0031] The first stop plate 1 also has four groups of eight fixing holes 16 each, with the individual fixing holes 16 of each group being at a different distance from a longitudinal edge of the stop plate 1. The fixing holes 16 of each group lie on a common line that runs diagonally to the longitudinal edge. The first stop plate 1 can be connected to a second stop plate 2 using fixing screws 13. The distance of an inner side 2' of the second stop plate 2 from the line LI can be determined by selecting the fixing hole 16 into which the shaft 13' of the fixing screw 13 is inserted. The fixing screw 13 has a head 13" with a knurled peripheral surface. A total of two fixing screws 13 are provided, with each fixing screw 13 being assigned to one of the groups.

[0032] The second stop plate 2 has a narrow side with a plurality of screw-in openings 17. The shaft 13' of the fixing screw 13 can be inserted into these screw-in openings 17. A nut 38 is inserted into the screw-in opening 17, into which a threaded shaft 13'" of the fixing screw 13 can be screwed.

[0033] When connected, the narrow side of the second stop plate 2 abuts the underside I " of the first stop plate 1. The second stop plate 2 protrudes at right angles from the underside I ".

[0034] The second line L2 runs in a plane E1, which is perpendicular to the plane of extension of the first stop plate 1 and perpendicular to the plane of extension of the second stop plate 2. The center of the central guide opening 5 and the center of a guide opening 35 of the second stop plate lie in this plane. In the edge area of ​​the guide opening 35 are several fastening openings 36, with which a guide element 32 for guiding a Forstner bit can be temporarily attached to the back of the stop plate 2.

[0035] In a longitudinal center plane through the second stop plate there are also two holes 37 each for inserting a stop element 14.

[0036] A sleeve element 20 is provided, which is made of metal. The sleeve element 20 has rotational symmetry and forms a sleeve section 21, which has an outer diameter corresponding to the inner diameter D0 of the guide opening 4, 5, 6. The inner diameter of the sleeve section 21 corresponds to the diameter D1 of a shank 19 of a drill 18. The diameter D1 is preferably 4 mm. The sleeve section 21 protrudes from a collar 22, which has a larger diameter than the diameter D0. The axial length of the sleeve section 21 can correspond to the axial length of the guide opening 4, 5, 6 or the sleeve 10 forming it. However, the axial length of the sleeve section (21) is preferably slightly shorter than the axial length of the guide opening 4, 5, 6 or the sleeve 10 forming it. The sleeve section 21 of the sleeve element 20 lines the sleeve 10 when it is inserted into the sleeve 10.

[0037] A clamping element, for example a grub screw 23, may be provided with which the sleeve element 20 can be fastened to the shaft 19 of a drill 18. The collar 22 can then be used as a stop element.

[0038] A further drill 25 is provided, the shank 26 of which has a diameter D2 corresponding to the diameter DO, i.e., in particular, 8 mm. A stop body 27 can be attached to the shank 26 of the drill 25.

[0039] A further drill bit 28 is provided. This is, in particular, a Forstner bit with a shaft 29 and a head 30, wherein the diameter D5 of the head 30 can be larger than the diameter D4 of the shaft 29. A guide element 32, which has fastening pins 44 that can be inserted into the above-described fastening openings 36 on the back of the second stop plate 2, has a guide sleeve 33 whose inner diameter corresponds to the diameter D4 of the shaft 29. The diameter D3 of the guide opening 35 can be larger than the diameter D5 of the head 30.

[0040] In a variant, however, a Forstner bit can also be used, the shaft of which has a diameter corresponding to the diameter D5 of the guide opening 35 and the head of which has a diameter corresponding to that of the shaft.

[0041] A second embodiment of the invention, shown in Figures 17 to 22, also has a first and a second stop plate 1, 2, which can be connected to each other to form a T-shape. Here, however, the distance is adjusted using markings. The fixing screws 13 extend through elongated holes 16 that extend transversely to line LI.

[0042] The second stop plate 2 has two setting gauges 45, 46, each formed by a recess 47 that is open to a narrow side of the stop plate 2. The diameter of the preferably trough-shaped recess 47 corresponds approximately to the diameter of the shaft 26 of a drill or the outer diameter of a sleeve section 21, 51 of a sleeve element 20, 50 that can be fastened to the shaft 29, 19. The length of the sleeve section 21, 51 can correspond to the axial length of the sleeve 10 lining the guide opening 4, 5, 6. The diameter of the sleeve section 51 of the sleeve element 50 can correspond to the material thickness of the second stop plate. The guide opening 35 can also have a metal sleeve. The sleeve section 51 can have the same diameter as the head 30. The diameter can correspond to the inner diameter of the guide opening 35.

[0043] A scale 49 is provided, the zero point of which is spaced from an opening 48 of the recess 47 to the narrow side by the amount of the axial length of the guide opening 4, 5, 6, 35. The scale marks of the scale 49 can extend to the bottom of the recess 47, so that the setting gauge 45, 46 can be used to set the length of the drill bit that enters the workpiece when drilling holes for dowels or an eccentric bolt, or for inserting the eccentric disc.

[0044] The devices shown in the drawings are suitable for drilling holes for an eccentric screw dowel connector in two workpieces to be joined together. Figure 13 shows, using the first embodiment as an example, the drilling of holes in a broad side surface of a workpiece 54. The inner side 2' of the stop plate 2 is brought against the narrow side of the workpiece 54. The shaft 14' of the stop element 14 is supported on a narrow side of the workpiece 54 that is at a right angle thereto. Holes for inserting dowels can be made with the drill 25. For this purpose, the shaft 26 of the drill 25 is guided in the two outer guide openings 4, 6. The penetration depth of the drill shaft 26 into the workpiece 54 is defined by the stop body 27.

[0045] The sleeve element 20 is clamped onto the shaft 19 of the drill 18. It is secured to the shaft 19 by means of the clamping screw 23. The collar 22 forms a stop element. The portion of the drill 18 that protrudes beyond the lower end edge of the sleeve 21 creates a recess for screwing in an eccentric pin. The drilling is carried out using the central guide opening 5.

[0046] First, the distance between the guide openings 4, 5, 6 and the inner side 2' of the second stop plate 2 is adjusted. This is done such that the axes of the guide openings 4, 5, 6 are spaced from the inner side 2' by half the material thickness of the workpiece.

[0047] Then the holes are drilled in a narrow side of another workpiece 54. For this purpose, the inner side 2" is placed on the wide side of the workpiece, with the shaft 14' of the stop element 14 resting on a peripheral edge of the workpiece. The underside 1" is located on the narrow side of the workpiece. Through the three guide openings 4, 5, 6, a An 8 mm drill bit is used to drill three holes. The two outer holes are for inserting dowels, and the middle hole is for the entry of an eccentric bolt (see Figure 14).

[0048] A hole is then drilled through the guide opening 35 using a Forstner bit 28, into which the central hole on the narrow side opens. This wide side hole is intended to accommodate the eccentric disc (see Figures 15 and 16).

[0049] In particular, it is provided that the stop plate 1 has a projection that is integrally connected to the rectangular base body of the stop plate 1 and protrudes from its broad side surface. This projection can form a handle that has ribbing or grooves on its peripheral wall. This handle forms a flat surface in which the guide openings 4, 5, 6 extend. The guide openings 4, 5, 6 are formed by metal sleeves 10 that are pressed into the plastic of the base body. The guide opening 35 of the stop plate 2 is also formed by a metal sleeve that is pressed into the plastic material of the stop plate 2.

[0050] The stop plate 1 has a plurality of markings 52, each with rectangular surface sections, the edge edges of which are aligned with each other to form a cross. The marking edges running transversely to the longitudinal direction of the stop plate 1 can be aligned with an edge of the other stop plate 2. Several markings 52 are provided, each defining adjustment lines that have different distances from a line E1 running through the centers of the guide openings 4, 5, 6. This allows the distance of the inside 2' of the stop plate 2 to the centers of the guide openings 4, 5, 6.

[0051] Alternatively, the markings 52 shown below in Figure 22 can also be used by bringing the adjustment lines defined by the rectangles 53 into alignment with the edge of a workpiece.

[0052] Figure 23 shows a further use of the device according to the invention for producing a row of holes. The row of holes consists of a plurality of holes 56 arranged in a line, which extend parallel to the edge of a workpiece 54. The spacing B of the holes 56 is 32 mm. To produce this row of holes, a guide 55 is used, which is another workpiece that forms a guide flank that runs parallel to the edge of the workpiece 54. The row of holes can be produced by means of the guide openings 4, 5, 6, which are 32 mm apart. For this purpose, the stop plate 1 is brought with one narrow side against the guide flank of the guide 55. A mandrel 58 is inserted through the guide opening 4 into an already drilled hole 56.If the guide openings 4, 5, 6 have a diameter greater than 5 mm, a sleeve element 57 is used as a reducing sleeve.
