Description

Description Marking angle with pivoting stop bar Field of technology

[0001] Die Erfindung betrifft einen Anreißwinkel mit einem ersten Schenkel and a second leg, wherein a stop bar is attached to the first leg and can be pivoted about a pivot axis from a position aligned with the first leg to a position transverse to the first leg. State of the art

[0002] Die US 7,546,687 B2 beschreibt einen Anreißwinkel mit einem ersten Leg that runs at right angles to a second leg, with the two edges of the legs running parallel to each other. Two such L-shaped bodies are pivotally connected to one another by means of a pivot axis running along an edge of the first leg, so that a stop bar can be moved from a flush position with the first leg, in which the stop bar and the first leg lie in a common plane of extension, to a transverse position in which the stop bar protrudes at right angles from the first leg.

[0003] Die DE 102021133883 A1 beschreibt ein Anreißdreieck, bei dem anA stop bar is attached to one edge, projecting transversely from the plane of extension of the triangle. Two triangular surfaces can be moved from a flush position to an overlapping position. Summary of the invention

[0004] Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Anreißwinkel anzu- which can be used advantageously. 31265PCT – 11.03.2025

[0005] Gelöst wird die Aufgabe durch die in den Ansprüchen angegebene Er- invention, wherein the subclaims not only represent advantageous developments of the device specified in claim 1, but are also independent solutions to the problem.

[0006] Zunächst und im Wesentlichen wird ein Anreißwinkel mit einem erstenLeg and a second leg are proposed, wherein the two legs are at a fixed, in particular right angle to each other. A stop bar is attached to one of the two legs. In an aligned position, the stop bar extends in the same plane in which the two legs extend. Two broad side surfaces of the stop bar facing away from each other can, in the aligned position, run flush with two broad side surfaces of the legs facing away from each other. In the aligned position, the scribing square can be placed on a flat surface of a workpiece and brought into any position on this surface, wherein a broad side surface of the scribing square, which is then located at the bottom, can lie flat on the plane of the workpiece.

[0007] Erfindungsgemäß kann die Anschlagleiste von dieser Fluchtlage in eineThe stop bar can be placed in a transverse position. In the transverse position, the stop bar is preferably positioned at right angles to the two legs, and in particular to the first leg. In this position, a broad side surface of the stop bar can be placed against a straight edge of a workpiece in order to draw a marking line at a specified angle, in particular at a right angle to the edge, using the edge edges of the second leg, which preferably extends at right angles to the first leg.

[0008] Erfindungsgemäß werden zunächst Rastelemente vorgeschlagen, die aus from a locking position into a release position. In the release position, the stop bar can be pivoted relative to the first leg. In the 31265PCT – 11.03.2025 In the locked position, the stop bar cannot be pivoted relative to the first leg. In particular, it is provided that the locking elements lock the stop bar both in the aligned position and in the transverse position. The locking elements can be brought into the release position by a relative displacement of the stop bar relative to the first leg. This relative movement can be a linear movement, particularly in the direction of the pivot axis. It can thus be provided that a displacement of the stop bar in the axial direction relative to the pivot axis moves the locking means from a locked position to a release position. This can occur against the restoring force of a spring element, whereby the spring element acts on the stop bar relative to the first leg and the locking elements in the direction of their locked position.The locking elements can be form-locking elements that form a form-locking connection with one another in the locking position, whereby the form-locking connection is released when the locking elements are moved from the locking position to the release position. However, the locking elements can also be force-locking elements that are force-locked to one another in the locking position, whereby the force-locking connection is released when a locking force is overcome. The invention thus relates in particular to a marking angle in which the stop bar is pivotably attached to a leg, whereby the stop bar is fixed in the aligned position and / or the transverse position in such a way that pivoting of the stop bar is only possible after overcoming a locking force or releasing a form-locking connection.

[0009] Gemäß einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung kann die Verlagerung derThe locking elements can be moved from the locking position to the release position by operating a handle. The handle can assume a rest position in which the locking elements are in a rest position. The handle can be moved from the rest position to an active position in which the locking elements assume their release position. The handle can be moved linearly. 31265PCT – 11.03.2025 ger. However, it is also provided that the handle can be rotated for this purpose. According to a preferred embodiment, the handle lies in the plane of extension of the marking angle and can be displaced in this plane. The displacement preferably takes place in the direction of the pivot axis. The handle can have an engagement opening for the engagement of a user's finger, who can move the handle from the rest position to the active position, preferably against the restoring force of a spring element. The handle can be displaceably assigned to the first leg. However, it can also be provided that the handle is movably assigned to the stop bar. It can be provided that the detent position is canceled by actuating the handle.

[0010] Die Rastelemente weisen bevorzugt einen Rastvorsprung auf, der Rast-flanks which, in the locked position, rest against counter-locking flanks. The counter-locking flanks can be formed by locking niches or locking recesses. A plurality of locking projections can be provided, each of which interacts with a locking niche. The at least one locking projection can be assigned to the stop bar or the first leg. The counter-locking flank is then assigned either to the first leg or to the stop bar. In a preferred exemplary embodiment, both the stop bar and the first leg each have at least one locking projection which interacts with an associated locking niche. These locking connections are preferably deactivated by a linear displacement of the stop bar relative to the first leg. The locking connection can be arranged directly in the region of the pivot axis. However, it is also provided that the locking connection is arranged away from the pivot axis.For example, a locking projection with an approximately square cross-section forms opposing locking flanks on its perpendicular sides, which, in the locking position, interact with the associated locking flanks of an open-edged groove. The pivot axis. 31265PCT – 11.03.2025 can run through the center of an end face of the locking projection. The locking projection can be cuboid-shaped. However, it can also have a truncated pyramid shape. In a variant of the invention, one of the locking projections can have locking flanks that run diagonally to one another. The associated locking recess can also have locking flanks that run diagonally to one another. In the locking position, the locking flanks then lie in a beveled flank contact, so that a wedge effect occurs. Preferably, the locking flanks are acted upon by a spring element in the beveled flank contact. This ensures that there is no rattling. The locking projection having the beveled flanks can be formed by the handle. The locking projection then engages in a locking recess of the stop bar.

[0011] In einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die An-impact bar has two stop legs. The two stop legs preferably extend in a common plane and, in the aligned position, lie in the plane of extension of the two legs of the marking angle. In the transverse position, one of the two stop legs protrudes from a first broad side surface of the legs, and the second of the two stop legs protrudes from a second broad side surface of the legs. The first stop leg can lie in a free space in the first leg of the marking angle in the aligned position. It can be pivoted out of this free space after releasing the locking elements. This can preferably be done in two opposite pivoting directions. The stop leg that is not in the free space in the aligned position preferably forms a marking edge that can be used in the aligned position.Both stop legs preferably protrude at right angles from the two legs of the marking square and can optionally be used as stop elements to bring the marking square into a defined angular position relative to a straight edge of a workpiece. The stop square can also be placed on the stop bar in the transverse position, so that one of the two legs of the marking square can be used. 31265PCT – 11.03.2025tear angle, in particular the longer of the two legs projects vertically upwards.

[0012] In einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung hat die Handhabe eine Doppel-function. In its rest position, it is fixed in the manner described above with inclined flanks of a locking projection. The inclined flanks of a locking recess of a stop leg of the stop bar act on the stop bar rattle-free in the pivoted-in alignment position. From this rest position, the handle can be displaced by an initial displacement path, preferably against the restoring force of a spring element assigned to it. During this first actuation phase, initially only the handle is displaced. The stop bar remains in its locked position, preferably spring-loaded, until the locking elements of the stop bar have disengaged from the stop elements of the stop bar. In a second actuation phase, the handle is displaced by a second displacement path. At the end of the first actuation phase, an impact flank of the handle acts on an impact flank of the stop bar.In the second actuation phase, the handle is further displaced by a second displacement path. In the process, the stop bar is dragged along, and the locking elements of the stop bar are disengaged from the locking elements of the first leg. This occurs against the displacement, preferably of another spring element, which is applied to the stop bar relative to the first leg.

[0013] Der erste Anschlagschenkel der Anschlagleiste liegt in der Fluchtlage Preferably, in a free space of the first leg. The first stop leg is displaceable within this free space in the direction of the first leg's extension to release the locking connection. One edge of this free space can form a locking connection with the first leg, and the opposite edge of the free space can form an abutment flank against which the stop leg can strike after the locking connection is released. 31265PCT – 11.03.2025

[0014] Der erste Anschlagschenkel kann zwei Abschnitte aufweisen. ZwischenThere may be an additional free space between the two sections, in which the handle is arranged in the aligned position. One edge of this free space forms the locking element, and in particular the locking element with the beveled flanks. The opposite edge of this free space can form the butt flank against which the handle can abut.

[0015] Ein Anschlagschenkel beziehungsweise der zweite Anschlagschenkelcan have a locking projection which, in the aligned position, lies in a locking recess of the first leg. One, two, or more locking recesses can be provided, which are opposite one another and into which the locking projection can enter when the stop bar has been brought from the aligned position into the transverse position in one direction or in another direction. An edge of the free space in which the first stop leg is located can have a locking projection which interacts with a locking recess or a locking groove of a corresponding edge of the first stop leg in particular. The edge can run transversely to the pivot axis, but also parallel to the pivot axis. Some of the locking elements can perform a dual function. They can fix the stop bar both in the aligned position and in the transverse position, whereby this is preferably achieved by a positive engagement of a locking projection in a locking recess.The locking elements are preferably held in the two locking positions by the same spring element.

[0016] Die Anschlagleiste kann kammartig ausgebildet sein, wobei ein erster The stop leg is designed like a comb tooth. The first stop leg can have several sections, each separated by free spaces, which, when aligned, lie in the associated free spaces of the first leg. Such a stop bar, for example, has no handle. In order to move the stop bar from its locking position to the first leg, the stop bar must be pushed against the restoring force of a spring element. 31265PCT – 11.03.2025 element in the direction of the pivot axis. In the manner described above, locking projections then emerge from their assigned locking recesses. Here, too, the locking projections can be designed in the shape of a truncated pyramid, with the truncated pyramid having a square base. All four sides of the truncated pyramid form locking flanks that interact with counter-locking flanks of a locking recess or locking recess. The locking projections can be assigned to the first leg. The locking recesses are then assigned to the stop bar. However, it is also provided that the locking projections are assigned to the stop bar and the locking recesses to the first leg.

[0017] In einer Variante der Erfindung werden die Freiräume, in die Abschnit-The first stop leg of the stop bar is flanked by sections of the first leg that have a reduced material thickness. The sections of the first leg form recesses into which intermediate sections of the first stop leg can enter in the aligned position. The intermediate sections of the first stop leg also have a reduced material thickness. The first stop leg thus has intermediate sections that form a recess.

[0018] Eine weitere Variante der Erfindung betrifft einen Anreißwinkel, beiin which the stop bar has only one stop leg, which can be selectively moved from a locking position to a release position by axial displacement in the direction of a pivot axis, in which the stop leg can be pivoted between an aligned position and a transverse position. Preferably, the stop leg can be moved in two pivot directions from the aligned position into two different transverse positions. In this embodiment, locking elements can also be provided, which preferably form- 31265PCT – 11.03.2025 Attached securely, but if necessary also force-fitting, to the first leg, with a locking projection engaging a locking recess.

Description of the embodiments

[0020] Der in den Zeichnungen dargestellte Anreißwinkel kann aus Kunststoff and comprises a first component having two firmly connected legs 1, 2. The two flat legs 1, 2 have parallel edges, with a first leg 1 extending at right angles to a second leg 2. Scales can be arranged on the edges. Openings that are evenly spaced from one another can also be provided in the legs.

[0021] Der erste Schenkel 1, der im Ausführungsbeispiel kürzer ist als zweiteLeg 2 has a free space 24 open to its outer edge. The free space 24 is delimited outwardly by a pivot axis 4, made particularly of metal, which extends over the entire length of the first leg. Two opposing edges 24' extend transversely to the pivot axis 4. Another edge 24'' extends parallel to the pivot axis 4.

[0022] In dem sich zwischen dem Rand 24’’ und der Schwenkachse 4 erstre-In a first operating position of the marking angle shown in Figures 1 and 4, which is referred to here as the alignment position, a first stop leg 5 of a stop bar 3 is located in the enclosed free space 24. The stop bar 3 has the same material thickness as the two legs 1, 2. A second stop leg 6 of the stop bar 3 extends beyond the pivot axis 4 and forms an edge 6' running parallel to the pivot axis 4, which can be used as a marking edge. The stop bar 3 lies in the free space 24 with an axial movement play, relative to the pivot axis 4.

[0023] Es ist ein Federelement 29 vorgesehen, mit dem die Anschlagleiste 3 in Extension direction of the pivot axis 4. The spring element 31265PCT – 11.03.2025 The element is a helical compression spring, which is arranged in a chamber of the first leg 1 and acts on a butt flank 25 of the stop bar 3. The pivot axis extends through the spring element 29.

[0024] Der erste Anschlagschenkel 5 besitzt einen ersten Abschnitt 5’ und ei-a second section 5''. Between the two sections 5', 5'' extends a free space 23. A handle 17 is located in the free space 23. The handle 17 is a flat piece with a material thickness that is not greater than the material thickness of the legs 1, 2 or the stop bar 3. The handle 17 has an engagement opening 18 into which a user can insert a finger in order to move the handle 17 in the direction of the pivot axis 4. For this purpose, the handle 17 lies in the free space 23 with an axial movement play.

[0025] Es ist ein Federelement 30 vorgesehen, mit dem die Handhabe 17 in The spring element 30 is a helical compression spring arranged in a chamber of the stop bar 3 and acting on a butt flank 19 of the handle 17. The pivot axis 4 extends through the spring element 30.

[0026] An einem Endabschnitt des zweiten Anschlagschenkels 6 befindet sicha locking element in the form of a locking projection 7, which has two locking flanks 7' pointing away from each other. The locking flanks 7' of the locking projection 7 can interact with locking flanks 9' of a locking recess 9 when the locking projection 7 enters the locking recess 9 in the aligned position. The locking flanks 7' of the locking projection 7 can also interact with locking flanks 10' of a locking recess 10, which is offset by 90° from the locking recess 9, when the locking projection 7 engages the locking recess 10 in a transverse position shown in Figures 2 to 8. 31265PCT – 11.03.2025

[0027] Es ist ein Rastvorsprung 11 vorgesehen, der einen im Wesentlichenhas a square layout. The pivot axis 4 is located in the center of an end face 11'' of the locking projection. The locking projection 11 forms two opposing pairs of locking flanks 11', which, in a locking position, selectively abut against locking flanks 8' of a locking recess 8 of the stop bar 3 in order to fix the stop bar 3 either in the aligned position or in the transverse position. The spring element 29 urges a stop surface 8'' of the locking recess 8 against the end face 11''.

[0028] Ein Rastvorsprung 12, der sich an dem parallel zur Schwenkachse 4 extending edge 24', has two locking flanks 12' pointing away from each other, which in a locking position rest against counter-locking flanks 32' of a locking niche 32.

[0029] Ein Rastvorsprung 13 ragt von dem Rand 24’ und insbesondere von an obliquely running section of this edge 24' in the direction of the free space 24 and engages in a locking position in a locking recess 14 with locking flanks 14' of the stop leg 5.

[0030] Vom Rand 24’’ ragt eine Führungsrippe 21 ab, die in eine Führungs-groove 22 of the handle 17. The handle 17 is displaceable relative to the guide rib 21 in the direction of the pivot axis 4.

[0031] Die Handhabe 17 besitzt ein Rastelement 16, das eine quadratische End face 16'. The pivot axis 4 is located in the center of the end face. The locking element 16 has four inclined locking flanks 16'. The locking element 16 can have a truncated pyramid shape. In a locked position, the inclined locking flanks 16' rest against inclined locking flanks 15' of a locking recess 15 of the first stop leg 5. This is achieved by the force applied by the spring element 30. The end face 16' is spaced from a bottom surface 16'' of the locking recess 15. This creates a clamping effect that fixes the stop bar 3 both in the transverse position and in the aligned position.

[0032] Die Funktionsweise des Anreißwinkels ist die Folgende:

[0033] Ausgehend von der in den Figuren 1 und 4 dargestellten Fluchtlage, inin which the broad side surfaces of the two legs 1, 2 and the stop bar 3 each extend in a common plane, the stop bar 3 can be brought from a locking mechanism, which fixes the stop bar 3 in the aligned position relative to the legs 1, 2, into a release position shown in Figure 6, in which the stop bar 3 can be pivoted by 90°. This is done by moving the handle 17 in the direction of the pivot axis 4. After pivoting the stop bar 3 into this transverse position and releasing the handle 17, the spring elements 29, 30 can move the handle 17 and the stop bar 3 back into a further locking position, in which the same locking elements fix the stop bar 3 in the transverse position.

[0034] Hierzu wird zunächst die Handhabe 17 gegen die Rückstellkraft desSpring element 30 is displaced in the direction of the pivot axis 4. In doing so, the locking projection 16 emerges from the locking recess 15. The spring element 30 is compressed further until either its restoring force is greater than the restoring force of the spring element 29 or until the abutting flank 19 abuts the abutting flank 20 and, upon further displacement of the handle 17, the stop bar 3 is also displaced in the direction of extension of the pivot axis 4 until either all locking projections 7, 11, 12, 13 have emerged from their assigned locking recesses 8, 9, 14, 32 or until the abutting flank 25 abuts the abutting flank 26.

[0035] In diesem Zustand sind sämtliche Rastverbindungen zwischen der An- striker bar 3 and the second leg 2 are lifted, so that the stop-31265PCT – 11.03.2025 The bar 3 can be freely rotated around the pivot axis 4 either in one direction or the other. During this rotation, the sections of the second leg flanking the locking recess 9, 10 dip through an escape space 27 of the stop bar 3, and a corner section of the locking projection 11 dips through an escape space 28 of the stop bar 3.

[0036] Wird eine 90°-Schwenkstellung erreicht, und wird die Handhabe 17 released, the spring element 29 displaces the stop bar 3 and the spring element 30 displaces the handle 17 such that the locking projection 7 enters one of the locking recesses 10, the locking projection 12 enters the locking recess 32, the locking projection 13 enters the locking recess 14 and the locking projection 11 enters the locking recess 8. Along with this, the locking projection 16 also enters the locking recess 15 in order to assume its clamping function, which fixes the stop bar 3 in the transverse position.

[0037] Die Figuren 14 bis 16 zeigen ein zweites Ausführungsbeispiel der Er- finding, in which the stop bar 3 can be pivoted about a pivot axis 4 between an alignment position and two transverse positions.

[0038] Die Anschlagleiste 3 besitzt einen Anschlagschenkel 6, der eine Anreiß- edge 6', which can be used in the flush position, but also in the transverse position. A further stop leg 5 is formed by sections 5', with several of these sections 5' each spaced from one another by a free space 23. The sections 5' form, in a sense, comb teeth.

[0039] Der erste Schenkel 1 besitzt zwischen Freiräumen 24 sich erstreckende Sections that extend into the free spaces 23 of the stop leg 5. The sections 5' extend into the free spaces 24 of the first leg 1. 31265PCT – 11.03.2025

[0040] In der in der Figur 15 dargestellten Raststellung, in der die Anschlag- When the stop bar 3 assumes an aligned position, locking projections 16 engage in locking recesses 15. In the exemplary embodiment, the locking projections 16 are formed by the leg 1 and the locking recesses 15 by the stop bar 3. The locking projections 16 have a square cross-section and have an end face 16'', in the center of which a pivot axis 4 runs. The end face 16'' is spaced from a bottom flank 15'' of the locking recess 15, which is square.

[0041] Die Seitenwände der Rastvorsprünge 16 bilden Rastflanken 16’ aus, dierun obliquely to axis 4. The locking flanks 16' rest against obliquely running locking flanks 15' of the locking recesses 15. A spring element 29 urges the locking flanks 15', 16' against each other.

[0042] Die Abschnitte 5’ liegen mit axialem Bewegungsspiel in den Freiräu- men 24, so that by a linear displacement of the stop bar 3 the locking projections 16 can be displaced from the locking recesses 15 in order to reach the position shown in Figure 16, in which the locking flanks 15' have detached from the locking flanks 16', so that the stop bar 3 can be brought into the transverse position there.

[0043] Das von einer Wendelgangdruckfeder ausgebildete Federelement 29 forces the locking elements 15, 16 into their locking position. The pivot axis 4 extends through the free space of the helical compression spring.

[0044] Das in den Figuren 17 bis 21 dargestellte dritte Ausführungsbeispiel derThe invention differs from the second embodiment shown in Figures 14 to 16 essentially in that the first stop leg 5, in the aligned position, lies in a recess 34 of the leg 2. The sections 5' extending into the free spaces 24 are now connected to adjacent sections 5' via an intermediate section in which the stop 31265PCT – 11.03.2025 The stop bar 3 has a reduced material thickness. A recess 33 is thus formed between two sections 5'. The bottom surface of the recess 33 rests against a bottom surface of the recess 34 of the leg 2 in the aligned position. In this embodiment, the surface of the stop bar 3, which lies flush with a broad side surface of the leg 2 or leg 1 in the aligned position, forms a rectangular surface with two uninterrupted longitudinal edges.

[0045] In der in der Figur 19 dargestellten Querlage bildet diese Rechteckflä-che a base with two uninterrupted longitudinal edges, each of which can be used as a marking edge.

[0046] Das in den Figuren 21 und 22 dargestellte vierte Ausführungsbeispiel shows a marking angle in which a stop bar 3 is hinged to the leg 2, said stop bar having only one stop leg 6 forming a marking edge 6'. As in the first exemplary embodiment, the stop bar 3 forms locking projections 7 which can be moved out of locking recesses 9, 10 by axially displacing the stop bar 3 from the locking position shown in Figures 21 and 22.
