Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen als Behälter ausgebildeten Baumständer, insbesondere einen Weihnachtsbaumständer, wobei der Behälter einen Boden zur Aufnahme des Baumstammes aufweist, wobei der Boden ein Lochmuster zur Aufnahme mehrerer Stangen besitzt, die um den Stamm herum in die durch die Äste des Baumes gebildeten Zwischenräume ragen.The invention relates to a container Tree stand, especially a Christmas tree stand, being the container has a floor for receiving the tree trunk has, the bottom of a hole pattern for receiving owns several rods that go around the trunk into the through the branches of the tree protrude gaps.
Weihnachtsbaumständer sind hinreichend bekannt; bekannt ist hierbei ein Ständer, bei dem der Baumstamm in eine zylindrische Hülse eingeführt wird, und alsdann durch seitlich angeordnete winklig zueinander stehende Schrauben in einer bestimmten Stellung fixiert wird. Bekannt ist allerdings auch, den Baumstamm durch Hebelmechanismen oder Spannfedern in seiner Stellung zu fixieren. Christmas tree stands are well known; is known here a stand, in which the tree trunk into a cylindrical sleeve is inserted, and then through laterally arranged angled screws in is fixed in a certain position. Is known however, also, the tree trunk through lever mechanisms or Fix the tension springs in their position.
Aus der DE-OS 42 11 158 ist ein Weihnachtsbaumständer bekannt, bei dem der Ständer eine Hülse zur Aufnahme des Baumstammes aufweist, wobei seitlich zur Hülse Arme vorgesehen sind, die mittels einer Kette um den Stamm angelegt werden können.From DE-OS 42 11 158 is a Christmas tree stand known in which the stand is a sleeve for receiving the Has tree trunk, with arms to the side of the sleeve are provided by means of a chain around the trunk can be created.
Diese bekannten Baumständer haben alle den Nachteil, daß, bevor der Baum in dem Ständer fixiert werden kann, der Baumstamm zumindest bearbeitet worden sein muß. Die Bearbeitung kann beispielsweise mit dem Ziel erfolgen, den Stammdurchmesser zu verringern, damit er überhaupt von dem Baumständer aufgenommen werden kann, oder aber den Baumstamm durch Bearbeitung zu begradigen, damit der Baumstamm halbwegs lotrecht steht, um hierdurch auch die Gefahr des Umfallens zu vermindern.These known tree stands all have the disadvantage that before the tree can be fixed in the stand that Tree trunk must at least have been processed. The Editing can be done, for example, with the goal that Reduce trunk diameter so that it is at all from that Tree stand can be added, or the tree trunk to straighten by editing so the tree trunk is halfway stands vertically, so that there is also a risk of falling over Reduce.
Aus der US-A 4,393,621 und der US-A 4,397,895 ist jeweils ein Baumständer der eingangs genannten Art bekannt, der jedoch keinerlei Möglichkeit der Anpassung der Stangen an unterschiedlich hohe Bäume aufzeigt. Es ist bekannt, daß Tannenbäume nach oben hin kegelförmig spitz zulaufend ausgebildet sind. Werden nunmehr Stangen nur einer bestimmten Größe eingesetzt, so besteht die Möglichkeit, daß diese Stangen mit einer Länge, die zwar ausreichend ist, um große Bäume, beispielsweise Bäume von 2 m und mehr, sicher zu halten, zur Halterung von Bäumen von einem Meter und weniger wesentlich zu groß sind. Das heißt, daß derartige Stangen im Extremfall aus dem oberen Bereich des Baumes herauschauen. Daß dies bei einem Weihnachtsbaum optisch von Nachteil ist, braucht nicht näher erläutert zu werden.US-A 4,393,621 and US-A 4,397,895 each contain one Tree stand of the type mentioned is known, however no possibility of adjusting the rods shows trees of different heights. It is known that Fir trees tapering to the top in a conical shape are trained. Are now only rods of a certain one Size used, there is a possibility that this Poles with a length that is sufficient to accommodate large ones Trees, for example trees of 2 m and more, safely hold, for holding trees of one meter and less are much too big. That means that such rods in In extreme cases, look out of the top of the tree. That this is optically disadvantageous for a Christmas tree need not be explained in more detail.
Darüber hinaus besteht die Problematik, daß Stangen, die den eigentlichen Behälter, der der Aufnahme der Stangen dient, in ihrer Größe wesentlich überragen, Verpackungsprobleme mit sich bringen. Schließlich müßte eine derartige Verpackung, sofern die Stangen nicht gesondert zum Verkauf gelangen sollen, sich immer nach der Größe der Stangen richten. Das heißt, daß in diesem Fall erhebliche Transportprobleme auftreten, die aber nicht nur den Transport der Ständer, sondern auch die nachfolgende Lagerung erheblich verteuern würden. Gelängen die Stangen gesondert zum Verkauf, so bestünde immer die Gefahr, daß die Stangen verloren gingen.In addition, there is the problem that rods that the actual container, which serves to hold the rods, in significantly exceed their size, packaging problems with bring oneself. After all, such packaging should unless the poles are sold separately should always depend on the size of the poles. The means that in this case significant transportation problems occur, but not only the transport of the stands, but also make subsequent storage considerably more expensive would. If the rods are sold separately, see above there would always be a risk that the poles would be lost.
Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen Baumständer der eingangs genannten Art derart weiterzubilden, daß dieser ohne nachteilige optische Einwirkungen in der Lage ist, Bäume stark unterschiedlicher Größe aufzunehmen, und der darüber hinaus in Bezug auf die Verpackung die Möglichkeit eröffnet, daß die Packungsgröße der Verpackung des Baumständers insgesamt nicht größer ist als der Baumständer selbst.The invention is therefore based on the object To further develop tree stands of the type mentioned at the beginning, that it is able to do so without adverse optical effects is to take trees of very different sizes, and that in addition, in terms of packaging, the possibility opened that the package size of the packaging of the Tree stand is not larger than the tree stand overall self.
Die Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß die Stangen durch Teilung in der Länge veränderbar sind.The object is achieved in that the Rods can be changed in length by division.
Durch Teilung der Stangen in einzelne Segmente wird die Möglichkeit eröffnet, die Stangen in ihrer Länge an jede beliebige Baumgröße anzupassen. Dies ohne, daß hiermit irgendwelche Probleme in Bezug auf die Verpackung verbunden wären.The bars are divided into individual segments Opportunity opens up the rods in length to each adapt any tree size. This without this any problems related to packaging would be.
Nach einem besonders vorteilhaften Merkmal der Erfindung besitzt der Boden konisch ausgebildete Löcher, wobei korrespondierend hierzu die Stangen endseitig ebenfalls einen Konus aufweisen. Hierdurch wird erreicht, daß die Stangen fest in den im Boden angeordneten Löchern einsitzen. Möglich ist allerdings auch die Stangen in die Löcher im Boden einzuschrauben.According to a particularly advantageous feature of the invention the bottom has conical holes, whereby corresponding to this, the rods also have one end Have a cone. This ensures that the rods sit firmly in the holes in the floor. Possible is also the poles in the holes in the floor screw in.
Nach einem weiteren Merkmal der Erfindung sind die Stangen schräg stehend von den Löchern im Boden aufnehmbar. D. h., daß die Stangen nach Art eines Straußes konisch auslaufend von den im Boden angeordneten Löchern aufgenommen werden.According to a further feature of the invention, the rods Can be picked up at an angle from the holes in the floor. That is, that the rods are tapered like an ostrich from the holes in the floor.
Wenn die Stangen in größerer Entfernung vom Baumstamm in das Geäst des Baumes eingreifen, so steht der Baum sicherer, als wenn die Stäbe unmittelbar am Baumstamm parallel zum Baumstamm entlang geführt werden, da der Hebelarm, der zum Kippen des Baumes erforderlich ist, länger wird. If the poles are in the distance from the tree trunk Intervene branches of the tree, so the tree is more secure than if the rods are directly on the tree trunk parallel to the Tree trunk are guided along, because the lever arm that leads to the Tilting the tree is required to be longer.
Nach einer Variante des Baumständers sind die Stangen exzentrisch und verdrehbar, jeweils durch ein Loch des Lochmusters aufnehmbar. Hierzu weisen die Stangen vorteilhaft an ihrem dem Boden des Ständers zugewandten Ende jeweils ein Exzenterglied auf, wobei das Exzenterglied ein Fußteil zur Aufnahme durch ein Loch des Lochmusters besitzt. Der Vorteil dieser Variante besteht darin, daß mit weniger Löchern im Boden des Ständers dennoch unterschiedlich starke Baumstämme sicher aufgenommen werden können, da durch Verdrehen der Stangen in den Löchern des Lochmusters der Abstand der Stangen zueinander variiert werden kann.The poles are a variant of the tree stand eccentric and rotatable, each through a hole in the Hole pattern recordable. For this purpose, the rods advantageously at their end facing the bottom of the stand Eccentric member, the eccentric member a foot part for Picks up through a hole in the hole pattern. The advantage this variant is that with fewer holes in the Bottom of the stand, tree trunks of different thickness can be safely recorded because by twisting the Poles in the holes of the hole pattern the distance of the Rods can be varied to each other.
Vorteilhaft ist zur Verstärkung der Verbindung zwischen der Stange und dem Exzenterglied ein Steg vorgesehen, der nach Art eines Dreiecks ausgebildet sein kann und senkrecht auf dem Exzenterglied angeordnet ist.It is advantageous to strengthen the connection between the Rod and the eccentric member provided a web that after Kind of a triangle can be formed and perpendicular to the eccentric is arranged.
Nach einem weiteren Merkmal dieser Variante ist das Fußteil in dem Loch fixierbar. Dies kann beispielsweise dadurch geschehen, daß das Loch mehreckig, also beispielsweise dreieckig oder viereckig ausgebildet ist. Jedoch ist auch denkbar, durch Schrauben das Exzenterglied auf dem Boden des Ständers zu fixieren.Another feature of this variant is the foot section fixable in the hole. This can be done, for example happen that the hole is polygonal, for example is triangular or quadrangular. However, too conceivable by screwing the eccentric on the bottom of the To fix the stand.
