- a suitable number of revolutions for a particular furniture fitting 200 when adjusting the furniture fitting 200 via the adjustment mechanism 202 can be taken, for example, from an online database or from the operating instructions for the furniture fitting 200.
- the Fig. 6 and 7 each show a detailed view of the adjustment mechanism 202 of the furniture fitting 200 in different adjustment states.
- the adjustment mechanism 202 comprises a spring 208, wherein the spring 208 is connected at a first end of the spring 208 to one of the support arms 210 and at its other end to an adjustment screw 204.
- the preload of the spring 208 can be adjusted by adjusting a tensile force on the spring 208.
- the opening moment and/or the load-bearing capacity and/or the counter-torque and/or the opening angle of the furniture fitting 200 can be individually adjusted.
- the adjusting screw 204 of the adjusting mechanism 202 has a crown wheel 206, wherein the adjusting screw 204 can be rotated via the crown wheel 206 by means of a rotary blade 12, wherein by rotating the adjusting screw 204 by means of a rotary blade 12 the end of the spring 208 connected to the adjusting screw 204 travels a travel path V along the adjusting screw 204, wherein the preload force of the spring 208 changes by moving the spring end along the adjusting screw 204.
- a setting state of the furniture fitting 200 is shown, in which a low preload force of the spring 208 is set, resulting in a low counter torque of the furniture fitting 200.
- the Fig. 7 The position of the adjustment mechanism 202 shown results in a high preload force of the spring and thus in a high counter-torque of the furniture fitting 200.
- the adjustment screw 204 is rotated via the crown wheel 206 with a previously defined and intended number of revolutions. Since the number of revolutions of the adjustment screw 204 corresponds to the number of revolutions of a rotary blade 12 and thus of a screwing tool 104, the use of a device 10 according to the invention with the revolution counting device 14 can be used to count the number of revolutions when adjusting the furniture fitting 200, thus ensuring at all times that the furniture fitting 200 is correctly adjusted with the required number of revolutions.
- the operating instructions for a furniture fitting 200 may already contain information on how many turns of the adjusting screw 204 are required to set a desired setting of the furniture fitting 200 via the adjusting mechanism 202 in order to achieve a setting suitable for the furniture.
- Counter torque and/or a suitable opening angle of the furniture front 212 can be used.
- An operator who adjusts the furniture fitting 200 for example, using a screwing machine 100, can use a device 10 according to the invention with a sensory revolution counter 14 to adjust the furniture fitting 200. This device counts the revolutions of the screwing tool 104 and thus the revolutions of the rotary blade 12 and the revolutions of the adjusting screw 204 when adjusting the furniture fitting 200 via the adjustment mechanism 202.
- a furniture fitting 200 can be adjusted quickly, easily, and precisely as intended by using the device 10 with the sensory revolution counter 14.
- other furniture fitting systems than the one shown with spring 208 can also be adjusted, provided that a number of revolutions of the screwing tool 104 corresponds to an intended adjustment of the furniture fitting system.
- fitting systems can also be adjusted that comprise at least one oil damper instead of a spring 208.
- the Fig. 8 shows a mobile terminal 300, which is designed in particular as a smartphone or tablet and comprises an external data processing device 302, an external control device 304, an external input unit 306, an external output unit 308, and an external communication unit 310.
- a computer program product in particular a mobile application, is executed on the mobile terminal 300, by means of which an operator can set, configure, and/or control the device 10, in particular the sensory revolution counter 14 of the device 10, as well as retrieve and/or transmit data.
- the external communication unit 310 of the mobile terminal 300 which can be designed, for example, as a Bluetooth module or mobile radio module of the mobile terminal 300, the mobile terminal 300 can communicate with the communication unit 28 of the device 10.
- Control specifications and/or sensor data and/or numbers of revolutions derived from the sensor data can be exchanged between the communication unit 28 of the device 10 and the external communication unit 310 of the mobile terminal 300.
- the external input unit 306 and/or the external output unit 308 can be designed as a touch-sensitive display, in particular as a touchscreen, of the mobile terminal 300.
- the mobile terminal 300 can display, in particular, the number of revolutions currently derived from the sensor data of the detection device 16 during an adjustment process of a furniture fitting 200.
- an operator can make inputs via the mobile terminal 300.
- desired settings of the furniture fitting 200, in particular intended target revolutions for the screwing tool 104 can be specified via the external input unit 306 via the touchscreen of the mobile terminal 300.
- Inputs made by means of the external input unit 306, in particular predetermined target revolution numbers, can be transmitted via the communication unit 310 of the mobile terminal 300 to the revolution counter 14 of the device 10 and evaluated there, in particular by the data processing device 22.
- the number of revolutions derived by the data processing device 22 of the device 10 can be transmitted to the mobile terminal 300 via the communication unit 28 and displayed there for an operator by the external output unit 308.
- Numbers of revolutions derived by the data processing device 22 and/or derived control specifications can also be transmitted to the mobile terminal 300 and further processed there by the external data processing device 302 and/or the external control device 304.
- sensor data acquired by means of the acquisition device 16 in particular acceleration data and/or rotation data, can be transmitted to the external data processing device 302 and/or the external control device 304 for deriving a number of revolutions and/or for deriving Control specifications and/or for controlling, in particular, the screwing machine 100, are further processed in the mobile terminal.
- the mobile terminal 300 can be configured to transmit control specifications to the screwdriving machine 100 via the communication unit 310 in order to control the screwdriving machine 100 based on the number of revolutions of the screwdriving tool 104.
- the mobile terminal 300 can also have a data memory on which sensor data acquired by the detection device 16, the number of revolutions and/or control specifications derived from the data processing device 22 or the data processing device 302, and target revolution numbers specified by means of the input unit 306 and/or by means of the input unit 24 can be stored.
- prefabricated profiles for example profiles with different target rotational speeds for different furniture fittings 200, can be stored in the data memory of the mobile terminal 300, so that an operator can select a profile suitable for their furniture fitting 200.
- a profile suitable for the furniture fitting 200 and/or a suitable target rotational speed are selected and, based thereon, control specifications are derived, for example.
- the mobile terminal 300 can be used to access, for example, a database, in particular an online database, in which prefabricated profiles and/or suitable target rotational speeds for different furniture fittings 200 are stored and retrievable.
- scannable barcodes and/or QR codes can be stored in the operating instructions for a furniture fitting 200, which can be scanned with a camera of the mobile terminal 300, and suitable target rotational speeds for the respective furniture fitting 200 can be derived therefrom.
