Definitions

  • the invention relates to a multifunctional wall element for office and other workplace equipment according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Modern workplace equipment including in open-plan offices, laboratories and medical practices, should meet multiple requirements. They should be easily adaptable to changing requirements regarding workplace organization. They should enable an individual, adapted to the requirements of the respective workplace space solution, which is variable in terms of equipment and size, and have an optical and acoustic calming and shielding character.
  • a multifunctional wall element for office furnishings which consists of a foot part, a rectangular frame and an attached lighting fixture.
  • a cable duct runs vertically within the frame.
  • the frame itself serves as a room divider and equipment rack.
  • the wall element is stable and heavy, so that it has sufficient good wearing properties. Moving the wall element therefore requires a relatively large amount of force.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object of developing a multifunctional wall element of the type mentioned in such a way that the wall element can be easily adapted in size and appearance to the respective requirements and is designed such that it can be easily moved to another location .
  • the wall element according to the invention has an optically clearly structured structure which can be used both as a free, i.e. can not use populated wall surface, as well as can be used as a support for technical devices.
  • At least two wings are provided which are pivotally connected to the column so that the longitudinal sides of the wings facing away from the column are approachable to one another.
  • the pivotable wings according to the further development are so movable regardless of the position of a technical device that a device that is attached to the column can be operated from two workstations, for example, at an angle of 90 ° to one another.
  • Technical devices can also be attached to the column individually for each workplace.
  • Figure 1 shows a free-standing multifunctional wall element for office and other workplace equipment.
  • a column 1 stands on a disk-shaped foot part 3.
  • the column 1 has a circular cross section. Any other polygonal cross section for column 1 is, however, conceivable. It is only important that the column 1 has a cable duct 21 in its longitudinal extent.
  • two rectangular wings 2 are pivotally connected to the column 1 so that one of their long sides runs in the vertical direction along the column 1. Deviations from the rectangular shape of the wings, for example in a trapezoidal or semicircular shape, are possible.
  • the pivotability of the wings 2 is achieved by hinges 4 arranged along the column and along the longitudinal sides of the wings 2.
  • the wings 2 can be pivoted such that the long sides facing away from the column 1 touch or that the narrow sides of the wings 2 form a common straight line intersecting the column 1. Any angle between the narrow sides of the wings 2 can be set between these two extreme positions.
  • the hinges 4 can also be provided by functionally identical components, such as flexible tabs to be replaced.
  • the column 1 also has a plurality of openings 7 which serve as holding devices 7.
  • openings 7 means not shown in the figure can also be used.
  • Devices 9, 10, 22, 23 or device carrying devices 5, 6 to be fastened to the holding devices 7 are then designed such that they grip around the rod in a form-fitting manner and can be clamped.
  • the devices 9, 10, 22, 23 and device carrying devices 5, 6 can thus be securely connected to the column 1.
  • the device carrying device 5, 6 shown in FIG. 1 consists of a shelf 5 and a carrying frame 6.
  • the carrying frame 6 is hooked into two openings 7 of the column 1 in the manner described above and is supported in a form-fitting manner on the surface of the column 1.
  • a support arm of the support frame 6 extends obliquely upward from the column 1 radially.
  • the shelf 5 is fastened horizontally.
  • Devices 9 can be placed on board 5.
  • a technical device 22, 23 in the form of a work lamp 22 with an articulated arm 23 can be connected directly to the holding devices 7 of the column 1.
  • the work lamp 22 can thus be attached to the column 1 at any height according to the respective needs.
  • the work lamp 22 can alternatively be connected to a wing 2 if these have holding devices 7 such as the column 1, or the articulated arm 23 has a screw-like closure which can be pushed directly onto a wing 2 and clamped thereon.
  • the wall element is set up so that the narrow sides of the wings 2 form a common straight line intersecting the column 1.
  • the narrow sides of the wings 2 form an angle of approximately 90 °.
  • a work table 8 is placed so that the backs of the work tables 8 are also at an angle of Stand at 90 ° to each other.
  • the devices 9 attached to the column 1 by means of the device carrying device 5, 6 are accessible from both workplaces. Nevertheless, the two workplaces are optically and acoustically separated by the wall element.
  • the upper narrow sides of the wings 2 are aligned with the top edge of the column.
  • the upper edge of an illuminating device 10 that emits its light at least upward and is directly connected to the column 1 is also aligned with the upper edge of the column.
  • the side of the lighting device 10 supported on the column surface is also aligned with the upper edge of the column.
  • the side of the lighting device 10 which is supported on the column surface lies positively on the column surface.
  • the lighting device 10 has a relatively large cross-section in the horizontal direction, which continuously decreases up to its lower edge.
  • the horizontal cross section is trapezoidal, with the shorter of the parallel sides being arranged on the column side.
  • the arrangement of the lighting device 10 in the position mentioned enables indirect lighting from the rear of the wall element starting from the ceiling of a work space to the device side of the wall element. There is no shading area on the device side, although the lighting device 10 is invisible to a viewer of the wall element on the device side.
  • Figure 4 shows a horizontal section at any point through the column 1.
  • the cross section of the column 1 is circular.
  • the inside of column 1 is hollow. This cavity is divided by two webs 26, 27 in the longitudinal direction into three chambers 21, 28, 29, of which the middle one serves as a cable duct 21.
  • the webs 26, 27 serve both to mechanically stiffen the column 1 and to guide them of connecting lines 20.
  • the chambers 28, 29 can be used as additional vertical cable channels, for example for routing signal lines for technical devices 9, such as printers, telephones, fax machines, computers, etc.
  • the webs 26, 27 are firmly connected to the column 1 on its inner circumference.
  • Crosspieces 26, 27 and column 1 can be made together in the form of an extruded profile.
  • the main surfaces of the webs 26, 27 are parallel to one another.
  • the cable duct 21 is delimited on two sides by the webs 26, 27, on its back by a cover 11 and on its front by a jacket section of the column 1.
  • a three-pole busbar 17 runs in the cable duct 21 and is fastened to the inside of the front of the column 1 by screw connections 25.
  • the busbar 17 runs centrally between the two webs 26 and 27.
  • the holding devices 7 are provided in the form of openings in the front-side peripheral section of the column 1.
  • the connecting lines 20 can be connected directly at any height by means of special connecting elements (not shown here) or device sockets 18 can be connected to the busbar 17 at any height, into which plugs 19 connected to the connecting lines can be plugged.
  • the busbar 17 can be interrupted several times in its longitudinal extent, so that a different supply circuit can be connected to each busbar section thereby created.
  • the busbar 17 can also be omitted entirely.
  • connecting lines 20 can be laid freely in the cable duct 21 and their plugs 19 can be plugged into device sockets 18 which are also freely inserted in the cable duct 21.
  • the accessibility of the cable channel 21 is through a Longitudinal direction at the rear of the column 1 opening in the column guaranteed.
  • This opening can extend over the entire length of the column 1. However, it can also be interrupted several times in the longitudinal direction. Each of these openings can be closed by the panel 11.
  • the surface of the diaphragm 11 is flush with the column surface.
  • the panel 11 can either be completely removed or opened.
  • either corresponding locking elements (not shown) are provided or, in the case of a hinged panel 11, joints 14 are provided, with the aid of which the panel 11 can be rotated about an axis standing in the direction of the longitudinal extension of the column.
  • the chambers 28, 29, like the cable duct 21, are accessible from the outside.
  • the column 1 has lateral openings in the direction of the longitudinal expansion of the column 1.
  • the chambers 28, 29, like the cable duct 21, can be closed by panels 12, 13, the surfaces of which are flush with the surface of the column.
  • the panels 12, 13 are held by locking elements 15, 16.
  • the size of the diaphragms 12, 13 is chosen such that a gap in the direction of the longitudinal expansion of the column 1 between the column 1 and the diaphragm 13, 12 remains when the diaphragm 12, 13 is engaged. This gap is closed by a brush strip 24. The gap is wider than the diameter of a connecting line 20.
  • the connecting line 20 is guided through an opening 30 in the web 27 or an opening 31 in the web 26 and with its plug 19 in the Appliance junction box 18 inserted.
  • the device connection line 20 is pressed into the brush strip 24 at the desired height and then the panel 13, 12 is again placed on the column 1 stuck.
  • FIG. 5 shows a foot part 3, in a perspective exploded view.
  • the circular base part 3 has a flattened area 37 on its circumference, in which two symmetrically arranged rolling elements 33, 34 are provided in the area near the floor.
