Device for hanging tools with shafts.

The invention relates to a device for suspending from coated stems devices, such as brooms, shovels, rakes, or the like., With the like on a bearing block. pivotable about a horizontal axis mounted, approximately S-shaped hook, adjacent to the bearing shaft a depending first straight section perpendicular.

Such a device is used to hang, for example, garden equipment after use on a wall, so that the often made of steel or bristles processing part is located in the air and does not need to be supported on the ground. If the processing part here is wet, the moisture in the suspended arrangement to flow out, causing the formation of rust is counteracted.

In one such known device the device suspended in the hook, in which it is supported on two opposite bearing points only because of low friction forces. There is a special pen provided to improve the fit of the stem of equipment on the hook, so that falling out of the stem of the hook when shaken, and thus in the partial annulment of the frictional forces is difficult. This training is but a complex construction.

The invention has for its object to improve the system of loosely hinged Steils within a simply constructed hook to increase the frictional forces between the hook and the stem and to thereby achieve a tighter fit of the handle in the hooks.

This object is achieved with a device according to the specified class according to the invention that connects the lower end of the first straight part of the hook Stuck in its vertical position about a C- or S-shaped portion of the hook in the horizontal plane. The stalk may thus rest on the hook on the concave surface of the S-shaped or partially circular portion, so that a lateral outward movement of the handle is made difficult from the hook.

In known devices of the hook on the other hand U-shaped so that it is completely open to one side and the stem can laterally move here from the hook when shaken. Such a displacement of the handle in the hook is unintentionally not possible in the practice of the invention.

Preferably, the extending in the horizontal plane C-shaped portion of the hook goes over at its end in a second straight portion that extends perpendicularly. This in turn is preferred over at its lower end in a continuously curved spatial (three-dimensional) portion that is inwardly directed upward. Thus, the stem is also at its other plant in the point hooks on a concave line and therefore at least three sides in the hook, which now any lateral outward movement of the handle is prevented on the hook. The hook is replaced by a insich twisted form, so that its fragments do not extend in a plane, but extend spatially. Specifically, the spatial portion is provided with an end bent upwards and bent back at the same time backwards.

The radius of curvature of the S or C-shaped portion approximately corresponds to the surface curvature of a mounted stem. The radius of curvature of the S or C-shaped portion may also be approximately greater than the surface curvature of the stem.

The stem has therefore both in the upper C or S-shaped portion of the hook and in its lower-dimensionally curved portion a certain linear contact surface.

A device according to the invention has the advantage that the stem is present not only in two but at least three contact points or lines within the hook. To the contact point at the upper S-shaped or part-circular (C-shaped) portion and the contact point on the lower spatial portion still is a lateral bearing point or line added on the second vertical rectilinear portion of the hook, since the stem as a result of the curved versions the remaining portions is pressed to the second straight portion. The stem then extends approximately at an acute angle in the longitudinal direction of the central section.

Preferred embodiments of the invention are included in the claims. The scope extends not only to the stressed individual features, but also to their combination.

An embodiment of the invention is illustrated in the drawing and will be described in more detail below. Show it:<ul><li>1 is a perspective view of a device with bearing bracket with drooping hook (without acting spring);</li><li>2 is a front view of the hook of the device;</li><li>3 shows a vertical section along the line III-III of Figure 2 by the hook;</li><li>4 is a perspective view of a device with abgewandeltem hook with hinged stem;</li><li>5 shows a vertical section through the modified hook with hinged stem along the line III-III of Fig.2.</li></ul>

An apparatus for suspending of stems shows a bearing block 10, in which an approximately S-shaped hook is pivotally mounted with horizontal bearing shaft 11th The bearing block 10 has a block-shaped slider 12 which is guided in a horizontal rail, so that the entire bearing block 10 can be moved horizontally. The rail 13 may be attached, for example by screws 14 to a wall.

At the horizontal support shaft 11 in accordance with Figure 2 of the drawing at the left end, a fixed collar 15. This can serve to attach one end of a plugged onto the bearing shaft 11 coil spring. With this, the bearing shaft is inserted into a horizontal bore of the bearing block 10 according to Fig.1 11 from the left side. The coil spring is attached at its other end on the bearing block 10, so that it acts on the bearing shaft 11 of the hook that these pivots towards the wall. A groove 16 of the bearing shaft 11 at its free end allows the plugging of a cap 17 and hence the axial securing of the bearing shaft 11 of the hook in the bearing block 10th

The catch is the like of round steel. bent and has several different sections. At the bearing shaft 11 is followed at right angles to a first rectilinear portion 18th That closes according to Figures 1 to 3 of the drawing, a C- or S-shaped section 19 and in accordance with 4 and 5 of the drawing, a part-circular arcuate portion 20 at.

In the position shown in Figure 2, the first straight portion 18 is perpendicular, while the C- or S-shaped portion 19 extends in a horizontal plane.

In the position shown in Figure 5 of the drawing, the first straight portion 18 is perpendicular and the part-circular arcuate portion 20 in a horizontal plane. On the S-shaped portion 19 and the part circular portion 20 to a second straight section 21 connects to the back is perpendicular to the position shown in Fig.2. This goes on at its end in a continuously curved spatial section 22, which forms the free end of the hook. The spatial portion 22 appears curved not only in the plane of Figure 2, but it also extends rearward (inward) out of the plane, such as the section is under Fig.3.

Due to the curvature of the upper portions 19 and 20 on the one hand and lower three-dimensional portion 22 on the other hand a hinged in the hook handle 23 of a device is pressed due to its own weight and to the inside of the second straight portion 21, so that a total of three contact points, or - lines result inside the hook for the handle 23, namely at the section 19 and 20, respectively, to the lower space portion 22 and to the second (middle) rectilinear portion 21. Thereby, the frictional force between the stem 23 and the hook is increased. An elastic sheath of the round steel, for example of plastic, increases the contact surface and thus the friction of the hanging in the hook stem 23rd

The radius of curvature of the upper C or S-shaped portion 19, 20 and / or the lower spatial bent portion 22 are approximately the same size or larger than the surface curvature of a shaft (23).

The radius of curvature of the upper portion 19, 20 can also be slightly smaller than that of the handle be such that a low clamping effect may occur.
