Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a basic element for the production of large-area panels for modular systems.
  • DE-U-7 007 072 describes a set of components for playing purposes, including elements of different lengths, designed as square strips, with square openings which are at a distance from one another which corresponds to a side length of these square openings. These square strips can be connected to one another by connecting elements.
  • DE-A-30 15 697 describes a kit for assembling game models, consisting of cuboid game components which are composed of two half-shells.
  • the half-shells are combined in a suitable manner, for example by welding, gluing or clipping, to form a component.
  • the half-shells do not form a basic element for the production of boards, but only semi-finished products for a single toy component.
  • the aim of the present invention is a basic element for the production of large-area panels for a modular system, in particular for a plug-in module system.
  • This basic element is intended to allow the production of plates of different sizes at low manufacturing costs, which have square openings in a sensible arrangement.
  • a basic element of rectangular shape with a hollow body which has a rectangular surface and vertical side edges which extend perpendicularly from the rectangular surface and which delimit an open and rectangular space between them, the basic element having one or more similar basic elements on the side edges can be connected by placing these basic elements on top of one another with their open sides and by welding, gluing, plugging, screwing or in some other suitable manner to form panels which are closed on all sides at the end faces for the production of panels for a modular system, the basic element being at least eight Has openings in the rectangular area, which are spaced apart by the distance a and arranged side by side in a rectangular field of at least two rows of at least four openings, the openings are square and a side length have lengths corresponding to the distance a and the distance to the outer boundaries of the base element is half as large as the distance a between the openings.
  • the openings also have side edges which extend perpendicularly from the rectangular surface and extend into the plane of the open rectangular surface of the hollow body.
  • the basic element can be designed in such a way that its thickness is equal to the distance between the openings and the outer boundary, that is to say a / 2, so that the combined basic elements give a plate thickness equal to the distance between the openings from one another, that is to say a.
  • An equally preferred basic element is designed in such a way that its thickness is equal to the spacing of the openings from one another, that is to say equal to a, so that the combined basic elements result in a plate thickness of 2a.
  • the basic elements can be joined together by welding, gluing, plugging, screwing or in another suitable manner.
  • FIGS 1 to 7 show the basic element according to the invention and plates made therefrom.
  • the lengths of the basic element are always a whole multiple, but at least twice the widths of the basic element.
  • This congruence of the breakthroughs is achieved according to the invention in that the spacing a of the breakthroughs is equal to the side length of the cross section a x a and that the spacing of the breakthroughs to the outer boundaries of the basic element is equal to a / 2.
  • the plates shown in Figures 4 to 7 can e.g. usefully combine with plug-in modules according to DE-B-21 61 913.
  • the same advantages and options apply if the openings are circular or have any other shape (e.g. star-shaped with 4 or 8 beams).

Claims (4)

  1. Elément de base de forme rectangulaire avec un corps creux, élément qui présente une surface rectangulaire et des côtés latéraux verticaux, s'étendant perpendiculairement par rapport à la surface rectangulaire, qui limitent un espace rectangulaire ouvert, l'élément de base pouvant être relié à un ou plusieurs éléments de base similaires sur les côtés latéraux, puisque ces éléments de base sont superposés par leurs côtés ouverts et peuvent être reliés par soudage, collage, emboîtement, vissage ou toute autre méthode adéquate en plaques fermées de tous côtés sur leurs faces antérieures, en vue de la fabrication de plaques pour un système de jeux de construction, l'élément de base (1, 1', 12, 2', 2'', 2''') présentant au moins huit orifices dans la surface rectangulaire, espacés l'un de l'autre par la distance a et disposés l'un à côté de l'autre dans un champ rectangulaire d'au moins deux rangées d'au moins quatre orifices, les orifices étant carrés et présentant une longueur de côté correspondant à l'écart a et la distance avec les bords extérieurs de l'élément de base équivalant à la moitié de l'écart a entre les orifices disposés l'un sous l'autre.
  2. Elément de base selon la revendication 1 caractérisé en ce que les orifices présentent aussi, s'étendant perpendiculairement par rapport à la surface rectangulaire, des côtés latéraux qui parviennent jusque dans le plan de la surface rectangulaire ouverte du corps creux.
  3. Elément de base selon la revendication 1 ou 2 caractérisé en ce que son épaisseur est égale à la distance des orifices avec les bords extérieurs, autrement dit à a/2, de sorte que les éléments de base réunis forment une épaisseur de plaque égale à l'écart entre les orifices, donc égale à a.
  4. Elément de base selon la revendication 1 ou 2 dont l'épaisseur est égale à l'écart entre les orifices, donc égale à a, de sorte que les éléments de base réunis donnent une épaisseur de plaque de 2a.
