Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tweezer-like gripping aid with straight legs consisting of one piece of elastic material, which have straight gripping edges on their gripper surfaces transverse to the longitudinal direction of the legs for the skin-contact-free dosing of powder compacts designed in the manner of dishwasher detergent tablets.
  • Concentrated products and active ingredients in the form of large-sized powder compacts have been developed in the field of household chemistry.
  • compact dishwasher cleaners are used instead of powder or granule formulations.
  • Detergent boosters, auxiliary agents and cleaning agents, such as toilet bowl stones and blue flushers for the water tank, are also supplied as a concentrate in the form of pressed or cast bodies, but also as extruded strands for use by the end user.
  • auxiliary agents and cleaning agents such as toilet bowl stones and blue flushers for the water tank
  • DE-GM 85 22 211 describes a simply constructed gripping aid that is inexpensive to produce as a mass article.
  • the known device is characterized by two U-shaped with each other via a web. connected gripping cheeks with the product type according to professional gelled inner surfaces and with outer surfaces designed for a secure hold between the thumb and index finger of one hand.
  • this device enables a fairly secure, flat and direct gripping or selective gripping of a tablet-shaped powder compact; with unskillful finger pressure the product can easily crumble.
  • the tablet material In order to ensure that such pre-rinse-cleaner tablets easily disintegrate due to the action of the rinsing water, the tablet material must be very soft; hard pressed material is out of the question. Such soft tablet material can easily be pressed so hard with conventional pliers-like gripping aids when grasping that at least parts of the tablet crumble and fall to the ground. In addition to the loss of cleaning material, the aggressive tablet material must be lifted from the floor with other aids. The aim of creating a tablet that dissolves as easily as possible in the pre-rinse cycle is countered by the problem of transporting this unpacked tablet undamaged from a storage container to the intended place in the respective machine.
  • the invention has for its object a gripping aid to the skin
  • a gripping aid to the skin
  • the solution according to the invention for the tweezers-like gripping aid with one-piece, straight legs, which have straight gripper edges running on their gripper surfaces transversely to the longitudinal direction of the leg, is that the gripper surfaces are resiliently angled towards one another from the longitudinal direction of the leg.
  • the arms of the gripping aid each consisting of legs and gripping surface in the front gripping area, a balancing spring action is triggered when the legs are compressed, which rules out excessive pressure on the product.
  • the gripper surfaces initially move in synchronism with one another, but when the gripper surfaces or gripper edges come into contact with the respective tablet and further compresses the legs, the resilient gripper angle adjacent to the gripper surfaces comes into effect with the Consequence that only a relatively small part of the total force exerted by hand penetrates to the tablet, because the greater part of the force is consumed in the desired manner when the resilient angle is stretched.
  • Both the opening angle spanned between the arms and the damping angle between the leg and the gripper surface need not be kink-like.
  • the scope of the invention also includes more or less rounded transitions of the surfaces abutting one another in the area of the angles.
  • the angled gripper surfaces run approximately parallel to the bisector of the opening angle spanned by the legs. In use, the gripper surfaces then lie essentially flat on the tablet to be lifted.
  • the gripper surfaces are angled more than parallel to the bisector of the angle.
  • a spatial shape is then preferably possible in which the gripper surfaces are angled inwards or towards each other by the opening angle of the legs from each longitudinal direction of the leg. This more angled.
  • a form of the l RME has the advantage that an excessive pressure on the leg receiving damping spring effect of the angle between the leg and the gripper surface of the arms of the gripping aid is about the theoretical maximum.
  • the gripping aid according to the invention can consist of any elastic material, such as plastic or metal. Due to the expense of material and manufacture, it is favorable to use polypropylene.
  • the gripping aid 1 shown in perspective in FIG. 1 consists of a e.g. about 20 mm wide and a total of 200 mm long with straight longitudinal edges 2 and transversely extending straight end edges or gripper edges 3.
  • the gripping aid 1 has a resilient opening angle 4 on the middle of the band forming it between straight legs 5 of the same length the longitudinal ends of the legs 5 opposite the angle 4 adjoin gripper surfaces 7 via a damping angle 6.
  • the inner surfaces of the gripping surfaces 7 can have profile-like elevations 8, for example ribs, thorns, webs or beads. Such profile-like elevations 8 are particularly desired when the gripper surfaces 7 lie essentially flat against the tablet to be lifted when in use.
  • the damping angle 6 should be selected approximately equal to half the opening angle 4 of the legs 5. If, on the other hand, the tablet is only to be gripped with the gripper edges 3 of the gripper surface 7, the profile-like elevations 8 per se are not necessary, but the damping angle 6 should be greater than that of FIG. 2. According to FIG. 3, it can, for example, be of the order of magnitude of the opening angle 4 of the legs 5. If, in the present case, the gripper surface 7 runs approximately parallel to the bisector 9 of the angle 4 spanned by the legs 5 in the unloaded state, the gripper surface 7 according to FIG. the other leg 5, angled.
  • a gripping aid 1 according to Fig. 3 is drawn in section with a gripped tablet 10 in principle.
  • a powder compact for use in the pre-rinse cycle of a dishwasher can, for example, have a diameter of 30 mm, a height of 22 mm and a weight of 25 g with a cylindrical design.
  • Fig. 5 gives an indication that a strongly compressed gripping aid 1 initially yields itself resiliently in the region of the damping angle 6 to the compressive force 12 before the tablet 10 can be affected at much higher pressure in the direction of the arrow 12.
  • a gripping aid 1 according to FIG. 4 which represents the secure gripping of a cylindrical tablet 10 on the cylinder circumference, that is to say in the most unfavorable position.
  • the gripping aid 1 can namely, because of the straight gripper edges 3 on the one hand and because of the resilient yielding of their leg 5 and gripper Surface 7 composite arms also loosely poured powder compacts poured into a drum or the like and transport them to the place intended for use, for example inside a dishwasher, without the risk of crumbling or slipping.
  • the illustrated, elongated design of the arms of the gripping aid 1 essentially formed by the legs 5 also ensures that product can be removed from a deep, cylindrical or rectangular drum without skin contact.
  • An elongated design is also advantageous when inserting the respective tablet into a machine interior if the intended working position is in the middle of the machine, for example.
