Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Bremseinrichtung für ein bewegliches Bauteil eines Möbelelementes, insbesondere eines Polstermöbelelementes, mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffes von Anspruch 1. Unter einem Möbelelement in diesem Sinne sind Sitz- und Liegemöbel mit entsprechend beweglichen Bauteilen zu verstehen (Sessel, Polstersessel, Ruhesessel, Bus-, Bahn- und Flugzeugsitze, Liegemöbel).The invention relates to a braking device for a movable component of a furniture element, in particular a piece of upholstered furniture, with the features of Preamble of claim 1. Under a furniture element in this sense are sitting and To understand reclining furniture with correspondingly movable components (armchairs, upholstered armchairs, Loungers, bus, train and airplane seats, reclining furniture).

Ein Möbelelement, an dem eine Bremseinrichtung der in Rede stehenden Art verwirklicht werden kann, ist insbesondere ein Polstermöbelelement, nämlich ein Polstersessel. Ein solches Möbelelement ist in verschiedenen Ausführungsformen bekannt (WO - A - 95/25452). Für die hier dargestellten bekannten Polstermöbelelemente ist eine gekoppelte Rückenlehnen -und Sitzverstellung kennzeichnend. Diese Rückenlehnen - und Sitzverstellung realisiert mit einer Verbindungsmechanik zwischen dem Traggestell, der Rückenlehne und dem Sitz eine synchrone Verstellung von Rückenlehne und Sitz aus einer höchsten, aufgerichteten Position, der Sitzstellung, in eine niedrigste, vorzugsweise auch weiter gestreckte Position, die Liegestellung. Bei der Bewegung aus der Sitzstellung in die Liegestellung führt der Sitz eine geringfügige Bewegung aus, die eine maßgebliche translatorische Komponente (Verschiebe-Komponente) - aufweist.A furniture element on which a braking device of the type in question is realized can be, is in particular an upholstered furniture element, namely an upholstered armchair. Such a furniture element is known in various embodiments (WO - A - 95/25452). For the known upholstered furniture elements shown here featuring a coupled backrest and seat adjustment. These backrests - and seat adjustment realized with a connection mechanism between the Support frame, the backrest and the seat a synchronous adjustment of the backrest and seat from a highest, upright position, the sitting position, into one lowest, preferably extended position, the lying position. In the Movement from the sitting position to the lying position leads the seat to a slight Movement that is a relevant translational component (shift component) - having.

Um die Verschiebebewegung des Sitzes nicht unkontrolliert zu erlauben, sondern kontrollierbar zu machen, ist eine Bremseinrichtung zwischen Sitz und Traggestell angeordnet, die eine am beweglichen Bauteil, am Sitz, oder ggf. auch am Traggestell angebrachte, normalerweise aus Metall bestehende Gleitschiene und einen dieser zugeordneten Bremslagerblock am gegenüberliegenden Bauteil, also am Traggestell, oder auch am beweglichen Bauteil, aufweist. Eine Einstelleinrichtung am Bremslagerblock dient der Einstellung der vom Bremslagerblock auf die Gleitschiene ausgeübten Bremskraft (DE - U - 86 09 844). Gegebenenfalls ist auch vorgesehen, daß die Bremswirkung ohne eine Einstelleinrichtung am Bremslagerblock durch eine von vornherein konstruktiv vorgegebene Gleitreibung zwischen den Lagerflächen von Gleitschiene und Bremslagerblock realisiert wird (DE - U - 85 34 420). In order not to allow the sliding movement of the seat in an uncontrolled manner, but instead To make it controllable is a braking device between the seat and the support frame arranged, one on the movable component, on the seat, or possibly also on the support frame attached, usually made of metal slide rail and one associated with it Brake bearing block on the opposite component, i.e. on the support frame, or also on the movable component. An adjustment device on the brake bearing block is used to adjust those exerted by the brake bearing block on the slide rail Braking force (DE - U - 86 09 844). Where appropriate, it is also provided that the braking effect without an adjustment device on the brake bearing block by one of constructively predetermined sliding friction between the bearing surfaces of Slide rail and brake bearing block is realized (DE - U - 85 34 420).

Die ausgeübte Bremskraft kann bis zur Blockierung, ggf. auch zu einer formschlüssigen Blockierung führen (DE - U - 86 09 844).The braking force exerted can be blocked until it locks, if necessary also to a positive one Blockage lead (DE - U - 86 09 844).

Ein Problem ist bei allen bislang bekannten Bremseinrichtungen der in Rede stehenden Art, daß die Bremskraft nicht feinfühlig genug eingestellt werden kann und, insbesondere, daß beim Beginn einer Verstellbewegung ein erheblicher Widerstand zu überwinden ist, wenn nämlich Haftreibung in Gleitreibung übergeht (Startruck). Außerdem läßt sich die Einstellung häufig nur schwierig vornehmen.One problem with all the braking devices known to date is the one in question Type that the braking force cannot be adjusted sensitively enough and, in particular, that at the start of an adjustment movement there is considerable resistance is to be overcome when static friction changes into sliding friction (start jerk). Furthermore the setting is often difficult to make.

Gerade für Sitzmöbelelemente mit einer gekoppelten Rückenlehnen- und Sitzverstellung, bei denen es auf die durch Gewichtsverlagerung leicht zu ändernde Körperstellung ankommt, stellen die zuvor erläuterten Schwierigkeiten bekannter Bremseinrichtungen einen beachtlichen Komfortnachteil dar.Especially for seating furniture elements with a coupled backrest and seat adjustment, where it is based on the body position that is easily changed by shifting weight arrives, the previously explained difficulties of known braking devices represent a considerable comfort disadvantage.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die Bremseinrichtung der in Rede stehenden Art zur Lösung der zuvor erläuterten Probleme zu verbessern.The invention has for its object the braking device in question Way to solve the problems discussed above.

Die zuvor aufgezeigte Aufgabe ist in einer ersten Alternative bei einer Bremseinrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffes von Anspruch 1 durch die Merkmale des kennzeichnenden Teils von Anspruch 1 gelöst. Erfindungsgemäß wird mit einer systematisch anderen Bremseinrichtung gearbeitet, nämlich mit einer Bremseinrichtung mit Bremsrollen. Hier wird Gleitreibung durch Rollreibung ersetzt. Dies führt zu einer wesentlich feinfühligeren Einstellbarkeit der Bremskraft. Insbesondere führt dies aber dazu, daß der Startruck nachhaltig reduziert wird. Lediglich die in der Lagerung der Bremsrollen noch vorhandene Haftreibung, die aber auf ein Minimum reduziert werden kann, ist dabei zu überwinden, um anschließend nur noch Rollreibung zu realisieren.The task outlined above is in a first alternative for a braking device with the features of the preamble of claim 1 by the features of characterizing part of claim 1 solved. According to the invention with a systematic worked other braking device, namely with a braking device with brake rollers. Here sliding friction is replaced by rolling friction. This leads to a much more sensitive adjustability of the braking force. In particular, this leads to the fact that the start jerk is reduced sustainably. Only those in the storage of the Brake rollers still have static friction, but they are reduced to a minimum can be overcome in order to then only realize rolling friction.

Die zuvor aufgezeigte Aufgabe ist in einer zweiten Alternative bei einer Bremseinrichtung gelöst, bei der erfindungsgemäß zwar mit einer im Prinzip ähnlichen Bremseinrichtung mit Bremsflächen gearbeitet wird, diese wird aber besonders geschickt in die Quertraverse am Traggestell (oder am beweglichen Bauteil) integriert werden. The task presented above is in a second alternative for a braking device solved, in the invention with a braking device similar in principle is used with braking surfaces, but this is particularly clever in the crossbeam can be integrated on the support frame (or on the movable component).

Die in der Zeichnung dargestellten Bremseinrichtungen sind bestimmt und geeignet für ein bewegliches Bauteil eines Möbelelementes, insbesondere für ein bewegliches Bauteil eines Sitzmöbelelementes und ganz insbesondere, wie hier nämlich dargestellt, für den beweglichen Sitz eines Polstermöbelelementes, bei dem eine gekoppelte Rückenlehen- und Sitzverstellung realisiert ist.The braking devices shown in the drawing are determined and suitable for a movable component of a furniture element, in particular for a movable one Component of a seating element and in particular, as shown here, namely for the movable seat of an upholstered furniture element, in which a coupled backrest and Seat adjustment is realized.

Das in Fig. 1 und 2 dargestellte Ausführungsbeispiel zeigt zunächst am Traggestell 1 des hier als Polstersessel ausgeführten Sitzmöbelelementes eine Rückenlehne 2 und einen Sitz 3. Die Rückenlehne 2 ist am Traggestell 1 an einem Schwenklager 4 schwenkbar gelagert. Die Rückenlehne 2 ist mit dem Sitz 3 im Winkel über ein Schwenkgelenk 5 schwenkbar verbunden. Am vorderen Rand des Sitzes 3 befindet sich unter dem Sitz 3 im Traggestell 1 eine Quertraverse 6, die den Sitz 3 dort trägt. An der Unterseite des Sitzes 3 befindet sich im Bereich der Quertraverse 6 eine Gleitschiene 7. Genau gesagt befindet sich am vorderen Rand des Sitzes 3 im Bereich der Quertraverse 6 an jeder Seite des Traggestells 1 jeweils eine Gleitschiene 7. In der Darstellung ist jedoch nur eine Gleitschiene 7 zu sehen aufgrund der Richtung der gezeigten Ansicht.The embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 first shows on the support frame 1 of the seating element designed here as an upholstered armchair has a backrest 2 and a seat 3. The backrest 2 is on the support frame 1 on a pivot bearing 4th pivoted. The backrest 2 is at an angle with the seat 3 Swivel joint 5 pivotally connected. Located on the front edge of the seat 3 under the seat 3 in the support frame 1, a cross member 6, which carries the seat 3 there. On the underside of the seat 3 there is a slide rail in the area of the crossbar 6 7. Specifically, is located on the front edge of the seat 3 in the area of Crossbar 6 on each side of the support frame 1 has a slide rail 7. In the However, only one slide rail 7 can be seen due to the direction of the illustration shown view.

Der Sitz 3 stellt ein bewegliches Bauteil eines Möbelelementes, hier eben eines Polstersessels dar. Am Traggestell 1, an der Quertraverse 6, ist ein Bremslagerblock 8 angebracht. Der Bremslagerblock 8 bildet eine Gleitführung für die Gleitschiene 7. Die Gleitschiene 7 gleitet also beim Übergang von der Sitzstellung in die Liegestellung im Bremslagerblock 8 mit einer vorgegebenen Gleitreibung. Das dargestellte und insoweit bevorzugte Ausführungsbeispiel zeigt dazu am Bremslagerblock 8 gestrichelt angedeutet einen Knebel, der eine Einstelleinrichtung 9 zur Einstellung der vom Bremslagerblock 8 auf die Gleitschiene 7 ausgeübten Bremskraft bildet. Mit diesem Knebel wird das Gleitlager im Bremslagerblock 8 für die Gleitschiene 7 stärker oder weniger stark gespannt, so daß sich der Gleitwiderstand entsprechend ändert. Auf diese Weise läßt sich das bewegliche Bauteil des Möbelelementes, also der Sitz 3 des Polstersessels, gegen eine vorwählbare Kraftwirkung verstellen und bei entsprechender Gestaltung der Bremseinrichtung aus Gleitschiene 7 und Bremslagerblock 8 auch in bestimmten Positionen fixieren oder arretieren.The seat 3 represents a movable component of a furniture element, here just an upholstered armchair A brake bearing block 8 is attached to the support frame 1, on the crossmember 6. The brake bearing block 8 forms a sliding guide for the slide rail 7. Die Slide rail 7 thus slides in the transition from the sitting position to the lying position Brake bearing block 8 with a predetermined sliding friction. The shown and so far preferred embodiment shows dashed lines on the brake bearing block 8 indicated a gag, which an adjusting device 9 for setting the Brake bearing block 8 forms braking force exerted on the slide rail 7. With this Gag the slide bearing in the brake bearing block 8 for the slide rail 7 or stronger less tensioned, so that the sliding resistance changes accordingly. On in this way, the movable component of the furniture element, that is, the seat 3 of the Upholstered armchairs, adjust against a preselectable force effect and if appropriate Design of the braking device from slide rail 7 and brake bearing block 8 also fix or lock in certain positions.

Fig. 3 zeigt nun eine Bremseinrichtung für ein solches bewegliches Bauteil 3 eines Möbelelementes, bei der der Bremslagerblock 8 zwei aneinander gegenüberliegenden Bremsflächen 10 der Gleitschiene 7 abrollende Bremsrollen 11 aufweist. Die Bremsung der Gleitschiene 7 mit Bremsrollen 11 hat die im allgemeinen Teil der Beschreibung erläuterten Vorteile gegenüber der Bremsung mit flächig aufeinanderliegenden Bremsflächen wie im Stand der Technik realisiert. Nicht nur die Einstellbarkeit der Bremskraft ist besonders feinfühlig, sondern auch und insbesondere der Startruck ist stark reduziert. Dadurch werden hohe Komfortansprüche bei Benutzung eines Möbelelementes mit einer solchen Bremseinrichtung erfüllt.3 now shows a braking device for such a movable component 3 Furniture element in which the brake bearing block 8 two opposite one another Has braking surfaces 10 of the slide rail 7 rolling brake rollers 11. The braking the slide rail 7 with brake rollers 11 has the general part of the description explained advantages compared to braking with flat superimposed Braking surfaces as realized in the prior art. Not just the adjustability of the Braking power is particularly sensitive, but it is also and especially the starting jerk greatly reduced. This means high comfort requirements when using a furniture element met with such a braking device.

Diese Bremseinrichtung kann nicht nur bei Sitzmöbelelementen eingesetzt werden, wiewohl sie dort mit besonderer Zweckmäßigkeit insbesondere für den Sitz eingesetzt wird. Eine solche Bremseinrichtung läßt sich auch für andere bewegliche Bauteile von Möbelelementen, beispielsweise für eine Liege mit einem beweglichen Kopfteil oder einem beweglichen Fußteil einsetzen.This braking device can not only be used for seating furniture elements, although they are used there with particular convenience, especially for the seat becomes. Such a braking device can also be used for other moving components of furniture elements, for example for a lounger with a movable head part or use a movable foot section.

Das Ausführungsbeispiel zeigt, daß die Bremsrollen 11 die Gleitschiene 7 zwischen sich führen. Dabei können die Bremsrollen 11 nicht nur als Flachrollen, sondern beispielsweise auch als Keilrollen, also mit einer keilförmigen oder U-förmigen umlaufenden Rille ausgeführt sein, die dann mit einer entsprechend ausgeformten Gleitschiene 7 zusammenwirken. Als Alternative, die hier jedoch nicht dargestellt ist, könnte man sich auch vorstellen, daß die Gleitschiene 7 U-förmig gestaltet ist und die Bremsrollen 11 von innen an die U-Schenkel anstellbar sind.The embodiment shows that the brake rollers 11, the slide rail 7 between lead oneself. The brake rollers 11 can not only as flat rollers, but for example also as wedge rollers, i.e. with a wedge-shaped or U-shaped circumferential one Groove be executed, which then with a correspondingly shaped slide rail 7 cooperate. As an alternative, which is not shown here, however, one could also imagine that the slide rail 7 is U-shaped and the brake rollers 11 are adjustable from the inside to the U-legs.

Das Ausführungsbeispiel zeigt ferner, daß die Bremsrollen 11 im Bremslagerblock 8 kugelgelagert sind. Eine Kugellagerung der Bremsrollen 11 hat den Vorteil niedrigeren Reibungswiderstandes, was zu einer Optimierung des Startruckes führt.The exemplary embodiment also shows that the brake rollers 11 in the brake bearing block 8 are ball-bearing. A ball bearing of the brake rollers 11 has the advantage of lower Frictional resistance, which leads to an optimization of the start jerk.

Weiter ist im vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel vorgesehen, daß die Bremsrollen 11 mit einer Elastomerschicht beschi-chtet oder aus Elastomermaterial, insbesondere als Vollgummirollen, ausgeführt sind. Durch die Andruckkraft der Bremsrollen 11 auf der Gleitschiene 7 werden diese im Auflagebereich elastisch verformt - eingedrückt - was den Rollwiderstand der Brems-rollen 11 auf der Gleitschiene 7 abhängig von der Andruckkraft erhöht bzw. ver-ringert. Damit ist eine besonders zweckmäßige, feinfühlige Einstellung der Bremskraftwirkung gewährleistet.It is further provided in the present embodiment that the brake rollers 11th coated with an elastomer layer or made of elastomer material, especially as Solid rubber rollers are executed. By the pressing force of the brake rollers 11 on the Slide rail 7, these are elastically deformed in the support area - pressed in - what the rolling resistance of the brake rollers 11 on the slide rail 7 depending on the pressing force increased or decreased. This is a particularly useful, sensitive Setting the braking force effect guaranteed.

Zuvor ist schon angedeutet worden, daß es besonders zweckmäßig ist, wenn die Vorspannung der Bremsrollen 11 bezüglich der Gleitschiene 7 einstellbar ist. Dazu können die Bremsrollen 11 vorzugsweise im Bremslagerblock 8 bezüglich der Gleitschiene 7 verstellbar sein. Dies ist angedeutet durch die gestrichelt dargestellte Einstelleinrichtung 9, mit der die untere Bremsrolle 11 in dem Bremslagerblock 8 gegenüber der oberen, über der Gleitschiene 7 postierten Bremsrolle 11 verschoben werden kann. Nicht dargestellt ist dabei die Möglichkeit, die Einstelleinrichtung 9 mit einem eigenen Federelement zu versehen, das seinerseits eine elastische Koppelung innerhalb der Einstelleinrichtung 9 realisiert. It has already been indicated that it is particularly useful if the pretension the brake rollers 11 is adjustable with respect to the slide rail 7. You can do this the brake rollers 11 preferably in the brake bearing block 8 with respect to the slide rail 7 be adjustable. This is indicated by the setting device shown in dashed lines 9, with which the lower brake roller 11 in the brake bearing block 8 opposite the upper, above the slide rail 7 post brake roller 11 are moved can. Not shown is the possibility of setting device 9 with a to provide its own spring element, which in turn has an elastic coupling within the adjusting device 9 realized.

Möglich ist auch eine Einstellbarkeit des Rollwiderstandes der Bremsrollen 11 beispielsweise durch entsprechende Verspannung der Lager.It is also possible to adjust the rolling resistance of the brake rollers 11, for example by appropriate tensioning of the bearings.

Ein zweites Ausführungsbeispiel einer Bremseinrichtung wird nun anhand der Fig. 1, 2, 4 und 5 erläutert. Auf die Erläuterungen zu Fig. 1 und 2 darf zunächst verwiesen werden.A second exemplary embodiment of a braking device is now shown in FIG. 2, 4 and 5 explained. Reference may first be made to the explanations relating to FIGS. 1 and 2 will.

Bei dieser Bremseinrichtung wird die am Traggestell 1 (oder am beweglichen Bauteil) angebrachte, als Hohlprofil bzw. als Rohr ausgeführte Quertraverse 6 zur Integration der Bremseinrichtung genutzt. Dazu ist, hier in Fig. 4 besonders gut zu erkennen, zunächst vorgesehen, daß die Quertraverse 6 Durchtrittsöffnungen 12 für die Gleitschiene 7 aufweist, die so die Quertraverse 6 durchsetzt. Fig. 4 zeigt rechts zwei miteinander fluchtende Durchtrittsöffnungen 12, von denen hier wegen der Darstellung natürlich nur die vordere Durchtrittsöffnung 12 zu sehen ist, für die rechts liegende Gleitschiene 7 und links entsprechende Durchtrittsöffnungen 12 für die links am Traggestell 1 liegende Gleitschiene 7. Die Gleitschienen 7 selbst sind hier nicht dargestellt.With this braking device, the on the support frame 1 (or on the movable component) attached, designed as a hollow profile or as a crossbar 6 for integration the braking device used. It can be seen particularly well here in FIG. 4 that initially provided that the crossbar 6 passage openings 12 for the slide rail 7, which passes through the cross member 6. Fig. 4 shows two on the right aligned passage openings 12, of which here because of the illustration of course only the front passage opening 12 can be seen for the one on the right Slide rail 7 and corresponding passage openings 12 for the left on Support frame 1 lying slide rail 7. The slide rails 7 themselves are not shown here.

Fig. 5 zeigt in Verbindung mit Fig. 4, daß hier der Bremslagerblock 8 in die Quertraverse 6 integriert ist. Er befindet sich nicht aufgesetzt auf die Quertraverse 6 wie in Fig. 1 und 2 aus dem Stand der Technik gezeigt, sondern verschwindet in der Quertraverse 6. Dazu ist der Bremslagerblock 8 in der Quertraverse 6 angeordnet und bis in den Bereich der Durchtrittsöffnungen 12 für die Gleitschiene 7 geführt. Das ist in Fig. 5 für die rechts befindliche Gleitschiene 7 dargestellt, das kann links ent-sprechend vorgesehen sein. Die Einstelleinrichtung 9 ist ebenfalls an der Quertraver-se 6 angeordnet und drückt zur Einstellung der Bremskraft den Bremslagerblock 8 im Inneren der Quertraverse 6 an die Gleitschiene 7 heran.Fig. 5 shows in connection with Fig. 4 that here the brake bearing block 8 in the crossbar 6 is integrated. It is not placed on the crossbar 6 as in 1 and 2 shown in the prior art, but disappears in the crossbar 6. For this purpose, the brake bearing block 8 is arranged in the crossbar 6 and up guided into the area of the passage openings 12 for the slide rail 7. Is in Fig. 5 shown for the slide rail 7 located on the right, this can accordingly on the left be provided. The setting device 9 is also on the cross member 6 arranged and presses the brake bearing block 8 inside to adjust the braking force the crossbar 6 to the slide rail 7.

Der Bremslagerblock 8 ist im Inneren der Quertraverse 6 verschiebbar, diese Verschiebung wird durch die Einstelleinrichtung 9 realisiert. Das Ausführungsbeispiel zeichnet sich dabei weiter dadurch aus, daß auf der von dem Bremslagerblock 8 abgewandten Seite der Gleitschiene 7 in der Quertraverse 6 ein Gegenlagerblock 13 fest angeordnet ist, gegen den die Gleitschiene 7 vom Bremslagerblock 8 drückbar ist. Bei Anziehen der Einstelleinrichtung 9 wird also die Gleitschiene 7 praktisch zwischen den Bremsflächen von Bremslagerblock 8 und Gegenlagerblock 13 eingespannt. Je nach Reibungszahl ergibt sich dann die gewünschte Bremswirkung.The brake bearing block 8 is displaceable inside the crossbar 6, this displacement is realized by the setting device 9. The embodiment is further characterized by the fact that on the 8 facing away from the brake bearing block Side of the slide rail 7 in the crossbar 6, a counter bearing block 13 fixed is arranged, against which the slide rail 7 can be pressed by the brake bearing block 8. At Tightening the adjusting device 9 is thus the slide rail 7 practically between the braking surfaces of brake bearing block 8 and counter bearing block 13 clamped. Each the desired braking effect then results from the coefficient of friction.

Im Grundsatz könnte die Gleitschiene 7 als Flachschiene ausgeführt und gewissermaßen "hochkant" angeordnet sein. Dann würden sich relativ große Bremsflächen an der Gleitschiene 7 ergeben. Eine feinfühligere Einstellung ist jedoch dann möglich, wenn die Konstruktion des dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels so gestaltet ist, daß die Gleitschiene 7 als Flachschiene ausgeführt und mit ihrer Ebene parallel zur Längsachse der Quertraverse 6 angeordnet ist, so daß der Bremslagerblock 8 und, hier so vorhanden, der Gegenlagerblock 13 an den Schmalseiten der Gleitschiene 7 angreifen. Man erkennt das gut in Fig. 5. An den Oberseiten und Unterseiten der Gleitschiene 7 ist die Gleitschiene 7 frei vom Bremslagerblock 8, an den Schmalseiten sind die Bremsflächen wirksam.In principle, the slide rail 7 could be designed as a flat rail and to a certain extent be arranged "upright". Then there would be relatively large braking areas the slide rail 7 result. However, a more sensitive setting is possible if the construction of the illustrated embodiment is designed so that the slide rail 7 is designed as a flat rail and with its plane parallel to the longitudinal axis the crossbar 6 is arranged so that the brake bearing block 8 and, here so available, the counter bearing block 13 attack on the narrow sides of the slide rail 7. This can be seen well in Fig. 5. On the upper and lower sides of the slide rail 7, the slide rail 7 is free from the brake bearing block 8 on the narrow sides the braking surfaces effective.

Es ist noch nichts darüber ausgesagt worden, wie die Krafteinwirkung von der Einstelleinrichtung 9 auf den Bremslagerblock 8 geschieht. Hier gibt es eine Vielzahl von Möglichkeiten. Das Ausführungsbeispiel zeigt dabei, daß die Einstelleinrichtung 9 in der Quertraverse 6 ein mit dem Bremslagerblock 8 gekuppeltes Keilgetriebe 14 aufweist, das mit einem außen an der Quertraverse 6 angebrachten Betätigungsknebel 15 betätigt wird. Man erkennt, daß in der Quertraverse 8 eine Öffnung 16 vorgesehen ist, in der die Gewindestange des Keilgetriebes 14 die Wandung der Quertraverse 6 durchsetzt, so daß von außen der Betätigungsknebel 15 aufgeschraubt werden kann. Um die Bewegung des Keilgetriebes 14 zu erlauben, ist auf der gegenüberliegenden Seite der Quertraverse 6 eine weitere Öffnung 16' vorgesehen, das zeigt Fig. 5 besonders deutlich. Fig. 5 läßt ferner erkennen, daß sich am Ende der Quertraverse 6 ein Einsatzkörper mit Innengewinde 17 befindet, der der Befestigung der Quertraverse 6 am Traggestell 1 dient. Nach innen hin ist hieran der Gegenlagerblock 13 angeschlossen.Nothing has been said about how the force is applied by the adjuster 9 happens on the brake bearing block 8. There are a variety of Options. The exemplary embodiment shows that the setting device 9 in the crossbar 6 has a wedge gear 14 coupled to the brake bearing block 8, with an actuating toggle 15 attached to the outside of the crossbar 6 is operated. It can be seen that an opening 16 is provided in the crossbar 8, in which the threaded rod of the wedge gear 14 the wall of the cross member 6 interspersed so that the operating knob 15 can be screwed on from the outside. To allow the movement of the wedge gear 14 is on the opposite A further opening 16 'is provided on the side of the crossbar 6, as shown in FIG. 5 in particular clear. Fig. 5 also shows that at the end of the crossbar 6 a Insert body with internal thread 17 is located, the attachment of the crossbar 6th serves on the support frame 1. The counter bearing block 13 is connected to the inside thereof.

Fig. 5 zeigt die Einstelleinrichtung 9 zugeordnet dem einen Ende der Quertraverse 6 mit der dortigen Gleitschiene 7. Ein entsprechende Einstelleinrichtung 9 könnte auch am anderen Ende der anderen Gleitschiene 7 zugeordnet sein. Eine gleichmäßige Bremskrafteinstellung läßt sich jedoch eher dadurch realisieren, daß bei zwei Gleitschienen 7 und Bremslagerblöcken 8 nur eine Einstelleinrichtung 9 an der Quertraverse 6 angeordnet ist, von der aus dann beide Bremslagerblöcke 8 betätigt werden. Das ist eine bevorzugte Ausführungsform.5 shows the setting device 9 assigned to one end of the cross-member 6 with the slide rail 7 there. A corresponding setting device 9 could also be assigned to the other end of the other slide rail 7. An even one Braking force adjustment can, however, be achieved by using two slide rails 7 and brake bearing blocks 8 only one adjustment device 9 on the crossbar 6 is arranged, from which both brake bearing blocks 8 are then actuated. This is a preferred embodiment.
