Definitions

  • the invention relates to a container device comprising at least one container, in particular at least one waste container, and a holding device for holding the at least one container in a drawer, the holding device having at least one holding means.
  • Garbage bins are arranged in pull-out drawers in kitchens. By quickly closing and opening the drawer, forces are exerted on the garbage bin so that it can tip or move inside the drawer. To solve this problem, it is known from the prior art, for example, to screw the waste bin to the drawer. However, this requires a lot of assembly work.
  • JP 2013 188303 shows a drawer with a waste container, which is carried by several bars.
  • the bars are held by holding devices and can be moved depending on the size of the waste bin.
  • EP 3,087,867 discloses holding elements which are fixed to a drawer base by means of fixing means.
  • the holding elements have a foot part and one this connected standing part, which serves to hold containers.
  • the container device comprises at least one container, in particular a waste container, and a holding device for holding the at least one container in a drawer.
  • the holding device has at least one holding means and the at least one container has a holding part.
  • the container is held on the at least one holding part by means of the at least one holding means.
  • a combination of the container and the holding device enables the container device to be easily installed in a drawer.
  • the holding device In a first step the holding device can be mounted in the drawer and in a second step the container is connected to the holding device, the connection between the holding device and the container being as simple as possible in terms of construction.
  • the container can be removed from the drawer and reinserted in a simple manner, while the holding device can remain in the drawer.
  • the holding device has a clamping device for clamping the holding device in the drawer.
  • a tensioning device has the advantage that the holding device acts through the one acting on it Tension can be kept stable in the drawer. As a result, the holding device and the container held by it within the drawer are reliably held in position in the event of a jerky opening or closing of the drawer.
  • the holding device according to the invention can be clamped flexibly and precisely in the drawer. Compared to screwing the container and drawer together, the holding device with the clamping device can be inserted into the drawer quickly and easily without the need for major assembly work.
  • An adjustable length of the holding device can be fixed in at least one direction of movement by the tensioning device.
  • the adjustable length can be fixed in such a way that only the shortening of the length is blocked, while the adjustable length can be increased further.
  • the length of the holding device is set somewhat shorter than a length of the interior of the drawer at the beginning of the assembly process. The user then places the holding device in the drawer, extends the adjustable size and presses the holding device against the inner walls of the drawer, so that the holding device is clamped to the drawer. Due to the fixation of the adjustable length, the user can let go of the holding device and the tension is still maintained.
  • the tensioning device has a mechanical backstop. This can in particular be solved manually and / or using a tool. Furthermore, the backstop can be configured such that it blocks the shortening of the length of the holding device and does not block the increase in the length of the holding device.
  • the holding device can advantageously have a double-T element.
  • the container can be at least partially covered and thereby held.
  • two or more containers can be partially encompassed simultaneously with the double-T element.
  • the design of the holding device as a double-T element has the advantage that the holding device can be designed to save space, but can nevertheless be clamped well in the drawer and has holding means for reliably holding the one or more containers.
  • Such a T-element can simply be moved within the drawer in order to be arranged appropriately depending on the desired division of the drawer or on the size of the individual containers.
  • the double-T element does not have to be symmetrical.
  • the T-roof elements can be designed differently, for example.
  • the double T element has a T trunk and two T roof elements.
  • the double-T element is in particular designed in such a way that at least one T-roof element has a first contact surface for producing a force fit with a first wall of the drawer.
  • the tensioning device advantageously has a pull-out device, the pull-out device being arranged to be movable within the T-trunk and relative to the double-T element.
  • a second contact surface is provided for the purpose of producing a frictional connection with a second wall of the drawer.
  • the pull-out device can be designed to be lockable on the double-T element, in particular on the double-T stem.
  • the holding means have a tilt protection which is suitable for preventing the container from tilting when the drawer is moved. Additionally or alternatively, the holding means have a shift protection, which for Prevention of displacement of the container within the drawer is suitable.
  • Such holding means have the advantage that when the drawers are suddenly opened or closed, the container neither moves nor tilts inside the drawer. This keeps the container in position within the drawer.
  • the holding part is an indentation which is arranged on an outside, in particular on the bottom or on the side wall of the container, or at the transition between the base and side wall of the container, the at least one holding means engaging in the indentation.
  • the container is rectangular and has an indentation at at least one corner, in particular at four corners.
  • the design of the holding part as an indentation or the arrangement of the indentation in the four corners of the container leads to a particularly stable arrangement of the container on the holding device.
  • the holding means can have a holding knob and / or a web and / or a wedge, which is a connection partner of the positive connection arranged on the holding means.
  • the holding knob in the installed state of the holding device, can be directed upward, so that the container can be placed on the holding knob from above.
  • the container has an indentation into which the retaining knob engages and a positive connection is thereby achieved.
  • the holding device can advantageously be elastic elements, in particular elements which can be deformed elastically or elastically, in particular rubber knobs. have, which are provided at one end or at opposite ends of the retaining device.
  • the advantage of these elastic elements is that they are compressed during the tensioning process, so that the holding device is braced with the drawer.
  • Elastic elements are to be understood as bodies which change their shape under the action of force.
  • the elastic elements must be sufficiently elastic so that the holding device can be braced. This depends in particular on the large, discrete steps in which the adjustable length can be set.
  • the length of the elastic element can be changed under normal loading by at least 1 mm, in particular by at least 2 mm, in particular by at least 5 mm.
  • the invention further relates to a drawer which comprises an insert plate which is designed such that it is held in the drawer in a form-fitting manner, in particular with the holding means being arranged on the insert plate.
  • a drawer 1 with a bottom 2, a rear wall 3 and side walls 4 and 5 is shown.
  • the front wall 6 (shown in Fig. 9 ) is in Fig. 1 hidden.
  • a waste bin 7 is arranged in the drawer 1. This has an opening at the upper end through which a garbage bag can be let into the garbage container 7 from above.
  • the rubbish bin 7 is held within the drawer 1 by a holding device 8, so that when the drawer 1 moves the drawer 1 does not shift or tip over.
  • the holding device 8 and the waste container 7 together form a container device.
  • the retention device 8 is between the rear wall 3 and the front wall 6 (shown in FIG Fig. 9 ) clamped.
  • the holding device 8 can be arranged at any distance from the two side walls 4 and 5.
  • the holding device was arranged in such a way that the waste bin 7 fits precisely between the holding device 8 and the side wall 4, so that the waste bin cannot shift laterally.
  • the drawer 1 shown can be installed in a kitchen cupboard and pulled out and pushed in in the direction of the double arrow 9.
  • the holding device 8 is designed as a double-T element with a T-trunk 10 and two T-roof elements 11 and 12.
  • the holding device 8 has holding means which are designed as two holding knobs 13 and 14.
  • the waste bin 7 can be placed on these holding knobs 13 and 14.
  • the waste bin 7 has indentations 7a (shown in FIG Fig. 1 and 3rd ) in which the holding knobs 13 and 14 engage. This creates a positive connection and the waste container 7 is held by the holding device 8.
  • the indentations 7a are arranged in the garbage container 7 in the corners at the transition between the bottom and side wall of the container.
  • holding sides 15, 16 and 17 Those sides of the double-T element which are in contact with the waste bin 7 are referred to as holding sides 15, 16 and 17. They form a U shape. The dimensions of the holding sides 15, 16 and 17 are selected such that the waste bin 7 fits straight into the U-shape and is in contact with the holding sides 15, 16 and 17 in the inserted state. Because of the U-shaped enclosure of the bin 7 represent the holding sides 15, 16 and 17 holding means for holding the bin 7.
  • the one T-roof element 11 has a first contact surface 13 on the outside, which comprises four elastic elements 18 which are in direct contact with the front wall 6 in the clamped state.
  • This is in Fig. 5 presented in detail.
  • forces act on the elastic elements 18 due to the bracing of the holding device 8 in the drawer 1 in accordance with the double arrow 19.
  • the elastic elements 18 are pressed together by the holding device 8 and by the front wall 6. This elastic compression allows the holding device 8 to be clamped in the drawer 1 and, due to the friction between the elastic elements 18 and the drawer wall, it can only be moved along the front wall 6 with a very high force.
  • an extractor 20 On the other side of the double T element is an extractor 20 ( 2 and 4 ) arranged, which comprises a second contact surface 21 which is approximately in contact with the rear wall 3 of the drawer 1 in the clamped state. On the second contact surface 21 there are also elastic elements 28 (in Fig. 8 shown) arranged.
  • the pull-out mechanism is illustrated, the holding device 8 in the 6 and 7 each with a view from below and in Fig. 8 is shown with a view from above.
  • Fig. 6 is the holding device 8 with the double-T element, ie the T-trunk 10 and the T-roof elements 11 and 12, and with the retracted extractor 20 shown.
  • the pull-out device 20 is arranged to be movable within the T-trunk 10 and relative to the double-T element.
  • Fig. 7 is just the double T element and in Fig. 8 only the pull-out device 20 is shown.
  • a rack 22 is arranged on the underside of the double-T element. This interacts with the blocking element 23 arranged on the pull-out device 20. The latter is shown in FIG Fig. 8 shown enlarged.
  • the locking element 23 has teeth 24 which are oriented obliquely relative to the pull-out direction 25.
  • the pulling-in of the pull-out device 20 is not readily possible.
  • the teeth of the rack 22 hit the teeth 24 of the locking element 23 and the pull-out device 20 is blocked or locked. A backstop is thus formed.
  • the pull-out device 20 can only be drawn in by the user, for example, using a screwdriver through the gap 26 (shown in FIG Fig. 4 ) presses on the actuating element 27 arranged on the top of the pull-out device 20 and the teeth 24 of the locking element 23 thereby move out of the rack 22.
  • the clamping process of the holding device 8 is now as follows: The pull-out device 20 is pulled into the double-T element to such an extent that the entire length of the holding device 8 is shorter than the depth of the drawer 1 or shorter than the distance between the inside of the Rear wall 3 and front wall 4 is. Due to the short length, the holding device 8 can be arranged at the desired position on the bottom 2 of the drawer 1.
  • the pull-out device 20 is pulled out until the elastic elements 18 arranged on the first contact surface 13 are in contact with the front wall 6 and on the other hand the elastic elements 28 of the second contact surface 28 are in contact with the rear wall 3.
  • the user can forcefully pull out the extractor 20 to thereby compress the elastic members 18 and 28. If the user now releases the holding device 8, the pull-out device 20 remains in position due to the backstop relative to the double-T element and the elastic elements 18 and 28 remain compressed, so that the holding device 8 remains clamped between the rear wall 3 and the front wall 6 .
  • the Fig. 9 shows the holding device 8 in the clamped state. The puller 20 is slightly pulled out.
  • FIG. 10 it is shown how the rubbish bin 7 is inserted into the drawer 1 from above and thus placed on the holding knobs 14.
  • Fig. 11 shows how additional small containers 29 and 30 can also be inserted into the drawer 1.
  • webs 31 shown in FIGS Fig. 4 and 10th arranged, which engage in an indentation 32 of the small containers 29 and 30 and serve as holding means.
  • the holding device has an insert plate, which is designed in its base such that it just into the Drawer fits (in Fig. 13 shown). As a result, the insert plate 33 cannot be moved within the drawer.
  • 33 elevations 34 are arranged on the insert plate, which serve as holding means.
  • the waste container 7 is held in place by means of the holding means.
  • four elevations 34a are arranged in corners, which in bulges 7a (shown in FIG Fig. 1 ) of the rubbish bin 7.
