Definitions

  • the invention relates to a method for clamping a tribe, especially the trunk of a Christmas tree, in a receiving opening of a stand by means of the receiving opening movable jaws, in which the jaws by means of a closure that can be moved in two opposite directions first moved out of the receiving opening and after inserting the trunk into the opening be brought to rest on the trunk and on a device to carry out this procedure.
  • stands Devices known from a housing or frame-like Support body exist, which has a receiving opening in which the lower area of the trunk of the Christmas tree is plugged in can be. Because the cross section of the trunks of Christmas trees is different and the Christmas trees with their trunk in one vertical position, the opening is of the support body always larger than the maximum cross section of the Tribe trained. Now around the trunk in this opening Securing or tightening are the most varied Devices become known.
  • a Christmas tree stand is known from DE-OS 36 06 778, at the roller-shaped holding elements by a rotary movement on the Trunk are pressed. An individual adjustment of this holding element to the shape of the trunk is not possible. Since the Trunks of Christmas trees rope straight and evenly round the trunk can only be aligned by mechanical processing or allowances are made. To perform the rotary motion the Christmas tree stand must be fixed to the floor, so that he doesn't turn A safeguard against automatic Opening is not intended.
  • DE-AS 28 14 830 discloses a stand that is also for recording of Christmas trees is suitable. With this stand the holding force is applied only by strong springs. It is opened using a lever on the bottom of the trunk Sleeve, which excludes that sleeve at the same time can be used as a water tank.
  • a Christmas tree stand is described in DE-GM 94 18 485 and shown, in which a plurality of holding elements by means of a Rod with toothing and a lever engaging with it Lock against the trunk to be moved. For strains with proportionate small cross-section are several lifting movements of the lever required until the clamping position is reached.
  • DE-OS 39 32 473 finally discloses a Christmas tree stand, in which several by shortening a rope sling Holding elements are brought up to the trunk. Doing so the holding force is only effective when all holding elements on Trunk. The rope is stretched over a foot lever, so that several strokes are always required until all holding elements rest on the trunk. That as an actual clamping element serving rope is in by a latch mechanism fixed in its stop position. There is an additional one for loosening Lever required. The one that serves as a tensioning element Rope cannot transmit forces when the holding elements are opened. Therefore, for the return movement of the holding elements special springs are provided, the force of which should be measured must that they possibly penetrated into the trunk holding elements pull out and also overcome the friction of the rope can. This can result in the loosening of the holding elements special tools are required.
  • PCT publication WO 89/03 004 also discloses one Christmas tree stand, the three on a ring around the by the Ring-shaped opening for the trunk of the Christmas tree distributed and for clamping the trunk in the receiving opening has movable jaws.
  • This Clamping jaws are formed by a closure designed as a ring either moved to the open position or the cocked position, the jaws in the clamping position with the required Clamping force must be applied to the trunk through the closure.
  • the problem on which the invention is based is to create a method for clamping a trunk, in which the clamping jaws are placed against the trunk before the trunk is actually clamped. It also aims to ensure be that the clamping can be easily released or removed.
  • this problem is solved by a method according to Claim 1 or by a device according to claim 4.
  • FIG. 1 to 4 of the drawing is a device for Clamping a trunk of a Christmas tree, only indicated shown, the first on a base plate 1 with a circular outer contour exists.
  • a receiving opening 2 is incorporated, which is also circular Cross section.
  • the base plate 1 is on one pot-like vessel 4 (Fig. 3) arranged, the bottom with a Centering tip 3 is provided and used to absorb water can be.
  • the base plate 1 On the base plate 1 are in the illustrated embodiment three bolts 6 arranged perpendicular to the surface of the Base plate 1 and each have a jaw 5 swivel mount. At each jaw 5 is one end a spring 7 connected, the other end on the Base plate 1 is secured. The springs 7 engage the illustrated embodiment so on the jaws 5 indicates that they strive to move counterclockwise to turn on the bolt 6. This means that the Jaws 5 try again and again, one location if possible to take well within the receiving opening 2, like this can be seen in FIG. 2.
  • the jaws 5 At their other ends the jaws 5 have a circular arc Tooth 11 on.
  • the base plate 1 is now assigned a locking ring 9, on the whole in the illustrated embodiment three drivers 8 and three pawls 10 are located, of which a driver 8 and a pawl 10 each Clamping jaw 5 are assigned.
  • the drivers 8 each serve for an opening movement of the jaws 5 while the Pawls 10 are responsible for their clamping movement.
  • the locking ring 9 either the driver 8 or the pawls 10 arrive a jaw 5 for plant or effect.
  • the locking ring 9 was clockwise rotated so that all three jaws 5 a driver 8 is present, the jaws 5 in their open Location has moved.
  • the locking ring 9 is counterclockwise turned.
  • This actuator 12 to 15 initially consists of a bolt 15 on the underside the locking ring 9 is arranged. That bolt 15 engages in a spiral-shaped guide slot 14 a drum 13 which is mounted in a fixed position and which can be rotated by a lever 12. By doing so Swinging the lever 12 can now the drum 13 and thus at the same time the locking ring 9 in the corresponding Direction.
  • the lever is pivoted 12 from the position shown in Fig. 3 down Drum 13 and thus the locking ring 9 rotated so that the Clamp 5 clamp or clamp the indicated trunk. If this lever 12 is raised, however, the Clamping jaws 5 return to their starting position according to FIG. 1.
  • lever 12 can be loosely inserted into the drum 13 be so that it can be used to secure against accidental Resolution of the clamping can be removed.
  • Fig. 3 is the described device together with the vessel 4 and the actuator 12 to 15 in a housing 16 which has a slot 17th has through which the lever 12 is guided to the outside.
  • the locking ring 9 is formed from two rings enclose the corresponding end of the jaws 5 between them. If necessary, the interacting attack surfaces the jaws 5 and the locking ring 9 provided with a coating to increase the friction his. It is also possible to adjust the clamping jaws 5 radially to be arranged on the base plate 1.
  • the explained Actuator for the movement of the jaws 5 can also in be formed in another way.
