Description

Luftausströmer mit Getränkehalter Air vents with cup holders
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Luftausströmer für Kraftfahrzeuge, der mit einem Getränkehalter versehen ist.The invention relates to an air vent for motor vehicles, which is provided with a cup holder.
Der Getränkehalter muß eine Vielzahl von Anforderungen erfüllen. Zum einen soll er eine Vielzahl von unterschiedlichen Behältnissen zuverlässig aufnehmen und festhalten können. Zum anderen soll er aus einer Betriebsstellung, in der er die Behältnisse aufnehmen kann, in eine möglichst platzsparende Bereitschaftsstellung überfuhrt werden können, und umgekehrt. In der Bereitsschaftsstellung soll der Getränkehalter vorzugsweise nicht sichtbar sein, beispielsweise hinter einer Abdeckung versteckt, oder in anderer Weise so in eine ihn umgebende Verkleidung integriert, daß ein harmonischer optischer Gesamteindruck entsteht. In Verbindung mit dem Luftausströmer soll der Getränkehalter schließlich das im Behältnis befindliche Getränk kühlen oder erwärmen.The cup holder must meet a variety of requirements. On the one hand, it should be able to reliably hold and hold a large number of different containers. On the other hand, it should be able to be transferred from an operating position, in which it can hold the containers, into a space-saving standby position, and vice versa. In the standby position, the cup holder should preferably not be visible, for example hidden behind a cover, or integrated in another way into a surrounding panel in such a way that a harmonious overall visual impression is created. In connection with the air vent, the cup holder should finally cool or heat the drink in the container.
Die bisher bekannten Getränkehalter haben diese Anforderungen nicht immer überzeugend erfüllt.The previously known cup holders have not always met these requirements convincingly.
Die Aufgabe der Erfindung besteht darin, einen Getränkehalter zu schaffen, der die oben genannten Anforderungen erfüllt.The object of the invention is to provide a cup holder that meets the above requirements.
Zu diesem Zweck ist erfindungsgemäß ein Luftausströmer vorgesehen, insbesondere für ein Kraftfahrzeug, mit einem Gehäuse, in welchem ein Getränkehalter vorgesehen ist, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß ein Aufhahmeraum für ein Behältnis vorgesehen ist, der in einer Bereitschaftsstellung an einem Ende von einem versenkbaren Deckel verschlossen ist, und daß der Aufhahmeraum eine Luftausströmöffhung aufweist. Erfindungsgemäß ist der Getränkehalter in den Luftausströmer integriert, so daß ein in den Getränkehalter eingesetztes Behältnis unmittelbar von der Luft umströmt wird, die durch den Ausströmer ausströmt. Diese Luft kann von einer Klimaanlage gekühlt oder durch einen Wärmetauscher erwärmt sein. Der Deckel schließt den Getränkehalter ab, so daß er sich optisch harmonisch in den Luftausströmer einfügt. Da das Behältnis vollständig in dem Aufhahmeraum aufgenommen ist, wird es zuverlässig gehalten.For this purpose, an air vent is provided according to the invention, in particular for a motor vehicle, with a housing in which a beverage holder is provided, characterized in that a receiving space is provided for a container which is closed at one end by a retractable cover in a ready position , and that the receiving space has an air outflow opening. According to the invention, the cup holder is integrated in the air vent, so that a container inserted into the cup holder is immediately surrounded by the air that flows out through the vent. This air can be cooled by an air conditioning system or warmed by a heat exchanger. The lid closes the cup holder so that it blends in harmoniously with the air vent. Since the container is completely accommodated in the receiving space, it is held reliably.
Vorteilhafte Ausfiihrungsformen der Erfindung ergeben sich aus denAdvantageous embodiments of the invention result from the
Unteransprüchen.Dependent claims.
Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand zweier bevorzugter Ausführungsformen beschrieben, die in den beigefügten Zeichnungen dargestellt sind. In diesen zeigen: 1. einen erfindungsgemäßen Luftausströmer gemäß einer erstenThe invention is described below with reference to two preferred embodiments, which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. These show: 1. an air vent according to the invention according to a first
Ausführungsform;embodiment;
2. einen erfindungsgemäßen Luftausströmer gemäß einer zweiten Ausführungsform in einem ersten Zustand; und2. an air vent according to the invention according to a second embodiment in a first state; and
3. den Luftausströmer von Figur 2 in einem zweiten Zustand.3. the air vent of Figure 2 in a second state.
In Figur 1 ist ein Luftausströmer 10 gezeigt, der ein Gehäuse 12 aufweist. ImIn Figure 1, an air vent 10 is shown which has a housing 12. in the
Inneren des Gehäuses 12 sind verschiedene Kanäle ausgebildet, durch die einströmende Luft zu zwei Luftausströmöffhungen 14 geleitet wird. Diese sind in an sich bekannter Weise mit einem Ausströmgitter 16 versehen.Various channels are formed inside the housing 12, through which inflowing air is directed to two air outflow openings 14. These are provided with an outflow grille 16 in a manner known per se.
Im Inneren des Gehäuses 12, hinter den Luftausströmöffhungen 14 gelegen, befindet sich jeweils ein etwa zylindrischer Aufhahmeraum 18 für ein Behältnis 20, welches ein Getränk aufnehmen kann. Im Gehäuse 12 ist jeweils eine kreisförmige Öffnung 22 vorgesehen, die zu dem Aufhahmeraum 18 führt. Es ist ein Deckel 24 vorgesehen, der translatorisch verschiebbar ist zwischen einer Bereitschaftsstellung, wie sie in Figur 1 für den linken Aufhahmeraum 18 gezeigt ist, und einer Betriebsstellung, wie sie für den rechten Aufhahmeraum 18 gezeigt ist. In der Bereitschaftsstellung verschließt der Deckel 24 die Öffnung 22 im Gehäuse 12, so daß die in den Luftausströmer geleitete Luft nur durch die Luftausströmöffhungen 14 ausströmen kann. In der Betriebsstellung ist der Aufiiahmeraum 18 von oben freigegeben, so daß das Behältnis 20 durch die Öffnung 22 in den Aufhahmeraum 18 eingestellt werden kann. Luft, die in den Ausströmer geleitet wird, strömt dann um das Behältnis herum, bevor sie durch die Luftausströmöffhung 14 ausströmt. Auf diese Weise kann das im Behältnis befindliche Getränk gekühlt oder erwärmt werden.In the interior of the housing 12, located behind the air outflow openings 14, there is an approximately cylindrical receiving space 18 for a container 20, which can hold a drink. A circular opening 22 is provided in the housing 12, which leads to the receiving space 18. A cover 24 is provided which can be displaced in translation between a standby position, as shown in FIG. 1 for the left receiving space 18, and an operating position, as shown for the right receiving space 18. In the ready position, the cover 24 closes the opening 22 in the housing 12, so that the air directed into the air vent can only flow out through the air outflow openings 14. In the operating position Aufiiahmeraum 18 released from above, so that the container 20 can be adjusted through the opening 22 in the Aufahahmeraum 18. Air that is directed into the outflow then flows around the container before it flows out through the air outflow opening 14. In this way, the beverage in the container can be cooled or heated.
Der Deckel 24 wird von einer (nicht dargestellten) Feder in die Bereitschaftsstellung beaufschlagt. Am Boden des Aufhahmeraums wird der Deckel 24 durch einen Druck-Druck- Verriegelungsmechanismus gehalten, also durch einen Mechanismus, der den Deckel beim ersten Herunterdrücken festhält und nach einem erneuten Druck wieder freigibt. Ein solcher Verriegelungsmechanismus gleicht einer Mechanik, wie sie in Druckkugelschreibern verwendet wird. Der Deckel 24 wird vorzugsweise beim Einsetzen des Behältnisses 20 nach unten gedrückt, wo er arretiert. Sobald das Behältnis in den Luftausströmer hineingedrückt wird, wird der Deckel 24 freigegeben, wodurch der Behälter 20 vom Deckel 24 nach oben gedrückt wird, so daß er leicht entnommen werden kann.The cover 24 is urged into the ready position by a spring (not shown). At the bottom of the receiving space, the cover 24 is held by a pressure-pressure locking mechanism, that is to say by a mechanism which holds the cover when it is pressed down for the first time and releases it again after it has been pressed again. Such a locking mechanism is similar to a mechanism used in ballpoint pens. The lid 24 is preferably pressed down when the container 20 is inserted, where it locks. As soon as the container is pressed into the air vent, the cover 24 is released, whereby the container 20 is pressed upwards by the cover 24 so that it can be easily removed.
In den Figuren 2 und 3 ist ein Luftausströmer gemäß einer zweiten Ausführungsform gezeigt. Für die von der ersten Ausführungsform bekannten Bauteile werden dieselben Bezugszeichen verwendet, und es wird auf die obigen Erläuterungen verwiesen.An air vent according to a second embodiment is shown in FIGS. The same reference numerals are used for the components known from the first embodiment, and reference is made to the above explanations.
Der Unterschied zur ersten Ausführungsform besteht darin, daß bei der zweiten Ausführungsform eine zylindrische Wand 30 vorgesehen ist, die den Aufhahmeraum 18 umgibt. Die Wand 30 ist translatorisch im Gehäuse 12 des Luftausströmers verstellbar. In Figur 2 sind die beiden Wände in einer Ruhestellung gezeigt, in der sie sich im Inneren des Gehäuses 12 befinden. Die in den Wänden angeordneten Luftausströmöffhungen liegen jeweils hinter einem Fenster 32, das im Gehäuse 12 ausgebildet ist. Aus der in Figur 2 gezeigten Ruhestellung können die beiden Wände unabhängig voneinander in eine in Figur 3 gezeigte Betriebsstellung überführt werden, in der sie nach oben aus dem Gehäue 12 des Luftausströmers herausgefahren sind. Die Luftausströmöffhungen 14 liegen nun oberhalb des Gehäuses 12. Die Fenster 32 im Gehäuse 12 sind jeweils von zwei Schiebern 34 verschlossen, so daß gewährleistet ist, daß die Luft weiterhin durch die Luftausströmöffhungen 14 aus dem Luftausströmer ausströmt. Die beiden zylindrischen Wände 30 werden von einer Feder in die Betriebsstellung beaufschlagt. Ähnlich wie bei den Deckeln 24 ist ein Druck- Druck- Verriegelungsmechanismus vorgesehen, der die beiden Wände in der in Figur 2 gezeigten Ruhestellung hält. The difference from the first embodiment is that in the second embodiment a cylindrical wall 30 is provided which surrounds the receiving space 18. The wall 30 is adjustable in translation in the housing 12 of the air vent. In Figure 2, the two walls are shown in a rest position, in which they are located inside the housing 12. The air outflow openings arranged in the walls each lie behind a window 32 which is formed in the housing 12. From the rest position shown in FIG. 2, the two walls can be transferred independently of one another to an operating position shown in FIG. 3, in which they have been moved upward out of the housing 12 of the air vent. The air outlets 14 are now located above the housing 12. The windows 32 in the housing 12 are each closed by two slides 34, so that it is ensured that the air continues to flow out of the air outlet through the air outlet openings 14. The two cylindrical walls 30 are urged into the operating position by a spring. Similar to the covers 24, a push-push locking mechanism is provided which holds the two walls in the rest position shown in FIG.
