Installation Body for Door and/or Window Handles

Abstract

The installation body is used as an axially fixed and rotatable receptacle for a handle, which consists of a circumferential engagement groove in a neck section that is in contact with the installation body. For this purpose, the installation body is composed of a base body with a passage opening aligned centrally with an axis (D), a guide bushing for the neck section of the handle, whereas the guide bushing is arranged inside the passage opening of the base body and a locking mechanism, which fixates the handle inside the base body in a releasable manner. The locking mechanism uses locking balls, which are adjustable and arranged radially in the direction of the axis (D) inside the guide bushing. The latter is positioned in the passage opening of the base body in the axial direction (A) in an adjustable manner, wherein the guide bushing is acted upon by a pressure spring in the axial direction (A). Furthermore, the base body is provided with a circumferential inclined surface while the locking balls (75) located inside guide bushing are pushed against the inclined surface in the axial direction (A) by the pressure spring in such a manner that a resulting force (F) is radially imparted upon the locking balls in the direction of the axis (D). A special embodiment of this installation body intends that the guide bushing within the passage opening of the base body is also mounted rotatably around the axis (D) against a spring force.
