Abstract

The ring has several cheek plates connected together by hinging pins and is closed using a shackle. The shackle is hinged about a coupling pin mounted in the end of a cheek plate. The right angle bend in the shackle effects the closure by partially wrapping round a pin mounted in the end of another cheek plate.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen Verschluss an einem Pressring mit mehreren gelenkig miteinander verbundenen Pressbakkenelementen, mit einem Kupplungsorgan, mit dem die einer Schliesstelle benachbarten und jeweils einen Kupplungsbolzen für eine Schliesseinrichtung aufweisenden Pressbakkenelemente provisorisch verbindbar sind.The invention relates to a closure on a press ring with several press jaw elements articulated together, with a coupling element with which one Closing point adjacent and one coupling pin each for a locking device having press jaw elements are provisionally connectable.

Ein Verschluss dieser Art ist im Stand der Technik aus der EP 0671984 bekannt geworden. Dieser weist ein Kupplungsorgan auf, das eine mit einem Pressbackenelement gelenkig verbundene erste Kupplungslasche und eine zweite mit dem anderen Pressbackenelement verbundene zweite Kupplungslasche besitzt. Diese beiden Kupplungslaschen sind über einen in beide eingreifenden Kupplungsbolzen verbindbar, der zum Schliessen des Kupplungsgliedes verdreht werden muss. In gekuppeltem Zustand ist das Kupplungsglied nachgiebig ausgebildet.A closure of this type is known from the prior art EP 0671984 become known. This has a coupling member on the one articulated with a press jaw element connected first coupling tab and a second with the other press jaw element connected second coupling tab owns. These two coupling tabs are over one connectable in both engaging coupling bolts, which to Closing the coupling member must be rotated. In coupled state, the coupling member is resilient.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Verschluss der genannten Art zu schaffen, der einfacher und kostengünstiger herstellbar und zudem einfacher handhabbar ist. The invention has for its object a closure to create the type mentioned, the easier and cheaper can be produced and is also easier to handle.

Die Aufgabe ist bei einem gattungsgemässen Verschluss dadurch gelöst, dass das Kupplungsorgan ein Bügel ist, der an seinem einen Ende schwenkbar am Kupplungsbolzen des einen Pressbackenelementes gelagert ist und der mit seinem anderen Ende mit dem anderen Pressbackenelement verbindbar ist, derart, dass dieses andere Ende in der gekuppelten Stellung am anderen Pressbackenelement verschieblich gelagert ist.This is the task with a generic closure solved that the coupling member is a bracket on one end pivoted on the coupling pin of one Press jaw element is stored and with its other End can be connected to the other press jaw element, such that this other end is in the coupled position is slidably mounted on the other press jaw element.

Beim erfindungsgemässen Verschluss ist das Kupplungsorgan ein Bügel, der an seinem schwenkbaren Ende in der Verschlussposition am Pressring verschieblich gelagert ist. Beim Schliessen des Pressringes findet eine Verschiebung zwischen dem Bügel und dem einen Pressbackenelement des Pressringes statt. Dies hat den wesentlichen Vorteil, dass das Kupplungsorgan nicht nachgiebig ausgebildet sein muss. Aufwendige Gelenke können damit vermieden werden. Der Bügel kann sehr einfach aus einem starren Draht hergestellt werden. In einer bevorzugten Ausführung ist der Bügel ein Drahtbügel, der in radialer Richtung des Pressringes gesehen im wesentlichen U-förmig ausgebildet ist. Der Bügel kann somit sehr einfach aus einem Drahtstück hergestellt werden. Auch die Handhabung des erfindungsgemässen Verschlusses ist sehr einfach. Zum provisorischen Verschliessen des Pressringes muss lediglich der Bügel in die Verschlussposition eingeschwenkt werden. Zum Öffnen ist eine Verschwenkung in der Gegenrichtung auszuführen.In the closure according to the invention, the coupling member a bracket at its pivotable end in the closed position is slidably mounted on the press ring. There is a shift when the press ring is closed between the bracket and a press jaw element of the Press ring instead. This has the main advantage that the coupling member does not have to be flexible. Elaborate joints can thus be avoided. The coat hanger can be made very easily from a rigid wire. In a preferred embodiment, the bracket is a Wire bracket, seen in the radial direction of the press ring is essentially U-shaped. The coat hanger can thus be made very easily from a piece of wire become. Also the handling of the closure according to the invention is very simple. For temporary closing of the press ring only the bracket must be in the closed position be swung in. There is one to open Execute pivoting in the opposite direction.

Die Herstellung ist dann besonders einfach, wenn der Bügel an den für die Schliesseinrichtung vorgesehenen Kupplungsbolzen gelagert ist. Der eine dieser Kupplungsbolzen dient mit seinen vorstehenden Enden aus Gelenkbolzen für den Bügel und der andere Kupplungsbolzen in Zusammenarbeit mit einer Biegung des Bügels dazu, die Öffnungsweite des Pressringes in der gekuppelten Position zu bestimmen.The production is particularly simple when the bracket on the coupling bolt provided for the locking device is stored. One of these coupling bolts is used with its protruding ends from hinge pins for the bracket and the other coupling pin in collaboration with a bend of the bracket, the opening width of the press ring to determine in the coupled position.

Nach einer Weiterbildung der Erfindung weist wenigstens ein der Schliesstelle benachbartes Pressbackenelement wenigstens einen Ansatz auf, mit dem der Bügel in seiner Schliesstellung verrastet ist. Beim Schliessen des Pressringes gleitet der Bügel an diesem Ansatz entlang. Der Bügel bleibt somit beim Schliessen des Pressringes fixiert und kann nach dem Pressvorgang durch ein Verschwenken gelöst werden. Ein solcher Ansatz kann beispielsweise als vergleichsweise kurzer angeformter Nocken sehr kostengünstig realisiert werden.According to a development of the invention, at least one at least the pressing jaw element adjacent to the closing point an approach with which the bracket in its Closed position is locked. When closing the press ring the bracket slides along this approach. The coat hanger thus remains fixed when the press ring is closed and can be released by swiveling after the pressing process become. Such an approach can, for example, as comparatively short molded cam very inexpensive will be realized.

Der in Figur 1 gezeigte Pressring 2 weist ein mittleres Pressbackenelement 6 auf, das mit zwei Gelenkbolzen 8 in symmetrischer Anordnung mit zwei weiteren Pressbackenelementen 5 und 7 schwenkbar verbunden ist. Die Pressbakkenelemente 5 und 7 besitzen jeweils einen Kupplungsbolzen 9 bzw. 10, an denen zum Schliessen des Pressringes 2 die in Figur 2 gezeigte Schliesseinrichtung 25 ansetzbar ist.The press ring 2 shown in FIG. 1 has a middle one Press jaw element 6, which with two hinge pins 8 in symmetrical arrangement with two additional press jaw elements 5 and 7 is pivotally connected. The pressbakken elements 5 and 7 each have a coupling pin 9 or 10, on which to close the press ring 2 the in Figure 2 shown locking device 25 can be used.

Die Schliesseinrichtung 25 ist ein bekanntes handelsübliches Produkt und weist zwei Hebel 26 auf, die an einem Teil 27 gelagert sind und um Gelenkbolzen 29 mittels eines hier nicht gezeigten Antriebes verschwenkbar sind. Hierbei liegen die beiden Hebel 26 mit Ausnehmungen 32 an den Kupplungsbolzen 9 und 10 aussenseitig an. Die in den Figuren 4 und 6 angedeuteten Rollen 30 des Antriebes greifen an geneigten Flächen 28 der beiden Hebel 26 an und verschwenken dadurch die beiden Hebel 26 derart, dass die Ausnehmungen 32 bzw. die Gelenkbolzen 9 und 10 gegeneinander bewegt werden. Die Figuren 3 und 4 zeigen den Pressring 2 auf einem Rohr 31 und vor dem Verschliessen bzw. Verpressen des Rohres 31. Zwischen den beiden Pressbackenelementen 5 und 7 befindet sich ein Zwischenraum bzw. eine Schliesstelle 4. Die Figuren 5 und 6 zeigen den Pressring 2 in geschlossener Stellung. Das Rohr 31 bzw. ein hier nicht gezeigter Pressfitting ist nach dem Schliessvorgang um seinen ganzen Umfang verpresst. Stirnseiten 18 und 19 der beiden Pressbakkenelemente 5 und 7 sind in Berührung, wie die Figuren 5 und 6 zeigen.The locking device 25 is a known commercially available Product and has two levers 26 on one part 27 are mounted and around hinge pin 29 by means of a here Drive not shown are pivotable. Here lie the two levers 26 with recesses 32 on the coupling bolts 9 and 10 on the outside. The in FIG. 4 and 6 indicated rollers 30 of the drive engage on inclined Surfaces 28 of the two levers 26 on and pivot thereby the two levers 26 such that the recesses 32 or the hinge pins 9 and 10 are moved against each other. Figures 3 and 4 show the press ring 2 on one Tube 31 and before closing or pressing the tube 31. Between the two press jaw elements 5 and 7 there is an intermediate space or a closing point 4. Figures 5 and 6 show the press ring 2 in the closed Position. The pipe 31 or a press fitting, not shown here is around its full extent after the closing process pressed. End faces 18 and 19 of the two press jaw elements 5 and 7 are in contact like the figures 5 and 6 show.

Ist der Pressring 2 wie in Figur 3 und 4 gezeigt zum Verpressen sattelartig auf das Rohr 31 aufgelegt, so wird dieser an den unteren Enden der beiden Pressbackenelemente 5 und 6 mittels eines Verschlusses 1 provisorisch verschlossen. Damit wird vermieden, dass der massive aus Metall hergestellte und vergleichsweise schwere Pressring 2 nicht gehalten werden muss und somit beide Hände zum Bedienen der Schliesseinrichtung frei sind. Der Verschluss 1 besteht im wesentlichen aus einem Bügel 3, der vorzugsweise ein Drahtbügel ist. Wie die Figur 3 zeigt, ist der in radialer Ansicht des Pressringes 2 im wesentlichen U-förmig und besitzt zwei im wesentlichen parallel zueinander verlaufenden Schenkeln 15 sowie einen Steg 16. Die Enden der Schenkel 15 umgreifen jeweils mit einer Umschlingung 14 ein vorstehendes Ende 9a des Kupplungsbolzens 9. Die Umschlingung und der Kupplungsbolzen 9 bilden ein Gelenk, das ein begrenztes Verschwenken des Bügels 3 um den Kupplungsbolzen 9 ermöglicht.Is the press ring 2 as shown in Figures 3 and 4 for pressing placed like a saddle on the tube 31, so this is at the lower ends of the two press jaw elements 5 and 6 temporarily closed by means of a closure 1. This prevents the massive one being made of metal and comparatively heavy press ring 2 not held must be and therefore both hands to operate the Locking device are free. The closure 1 consists in essentially from a bracket 3, which is preferably a wire bracket is. As FIG. 3 shows, it is in a radial view of the press ring 2 is substantially U-shaped and has two essentially parallel to each other Legs 15 and a web 16. The ends of the legs 15 each encompass a protruding one with a wrap 14 End 9a of the coupling pin 9. The loop and the coupling pin 9 form a joint that has a limited Pivoting the bracket 3 around the coupling pin 9 allows.

In der Figur 1 ist der Pressring 2 offen und kann zum Verpressen eines hier nicht gezeigten Pressfittings sattelartig auf ein Rohr 31 aufgelegt werden. Durch ein Schwenken des Bügels 3 in die in den Figuren 3 und 4 gezeigte Position kann der Schliessring 2 provisorisch geschlossen werden, wobei zwischen den Pressbackenelementen 5 und 7 eine Schliesstelle 4 besteht, die wie oben erläutert mit der Verschlusseinrichtung 25 geschlossen wird. Wie die Figuren 3 und 4 deutlich zeigen, ist der Bügel 3 in der Ansicht gemäss der Figur 4 etwa Z-förmig und insbesondere winkelförmig. In der Schliesstellung liegt der Bügel 3 mit zwei im wesentlichen 90° Biegungen 20 an vorstehenden Enden 10a des Kupplungsbolzen 10 an. Im Abstand zum Kupplungsbolzen 10 sind am Pressbackenelement jeweils aussenseitig zwei vergleichsweise kurze Ansätze 17 angeformt an denen der Bügel 3 anliegt. Die Ansätze 17 bilden Rastnocken, welche der Bügel 3 durch federelastisches Ausreichen bei Ein- und Ausschwenken überspringen kann. Die Positionen, an denen die Ansätze 17 am Bügel 3 anliegen sind in Figur 3 mit A bezeichnet. Die Positionen A bilden zusammen mit Positionen B Raststellen, die durch Ausbiegungen 15c der Schenkel 15 gebildet werden.In Figure 1, the press ring 2 is open and can be pressed of a press fitting, not shown here, saddle-like be placed on a tube 31. By panning of the bracket 3 in the position shown in Figures 3 and 4 the locking ring 2 can be temporarily closed, a between the press jaw elements 5 and 7 Closure 4 exists, which as explained above with the Closure device 25 is closed. Like the figures 3 and 4 clearly show, the bracket 3 is in the view according to 4 approximately Z-shaped and in particular angular. In the closed position, the bracket 3 lies with two in substantial 90 ° bends 20 at projecting ends 10a of the Coupling bolt 10 on. At a distance from the coupling pin 10 are two comparative on the outside of the press jaw element short lugs 17 formed on those of the bracket 3 is present. The approaches 17 form locking cams, which the bracket 3 due to sufficient elasticity when swiveling in and out can skip. The positions in which the Lugs 17 abutting the bracket 3 are designated by A in FIG. The positions A together with positions B form Resting points formed by bends 15c of the legs 15 become.

Wird nun der Pressring 2 geschlossen, gleiten die beiden Schenkel 15 jeweils zwischen einem Kupplungsbolzen 10 und einem Ansatz 17 am Pressbackenelement 7 entlang und bleiben hierbei in der verrasteten Position. Nach dem Pressvorgang liegen die Ansätze 17 an den mit B bezeichneten Position des Bügels an. Zwischen den beiden Position A und B weist der Bügel 3 eine Biegung auf. Nach dem Schliessen des Pressringes ist dieser somit weiterhin durch den Bügel 3 geschlossen und kann damit nicht vom Rohr 31 abgleiten. Die Schliesseinrichtung 25 wird nach dem Pressvorgang vom Pressring 2 abgenommen. Durch Verschwenken des Bügels 3 im Gegenuhrzeigersinn kann der Pressring 2 wieder geöffnet und vom Rohr 21 abgenommen werden. Der Pressring 2 ist nun für einen weiteren Pressvorgang bereit.If the press ring 2 is now closed, the two slide Leg 15 each between a coupling pin 10 and a shoulder 17 along the press jaw element 7 and remain here in the locked position. After the pressing process are the approaches 17 at the position labeled B. of the bracket. Between the two positions A and B points the bracket 3 a bend. After closing the Press ring is therefore still through the bracket 3rd closed and can not slide from the tube 31. The Closing device 25 is after the pressing process Press ring 2 removed. By pivoting the bracket 3 in The press ring 2 can be opened and turned counterclockwise be removed from tube 21. The press ring 2 is now for another pressing process ready.
