EXAMPLES

[0062] 1. A module 1 according to the invention as shown in FIG. 1 consists of a plate 2 according to FIG. 2 and nine rollers 5 screwed therein according to FIG. 5. Multiple modules 1 are fastened with one another using inner and outer connecting webs 3, 4 according to FIGS. 3 and 4 in that the connecting webs 3 according to FIG. 3 are inserted into grooves 23 of the plates 2. Small tongues 31 in small grooves 231 hold the modules 1 together so that they do not fall apart. According to FIG. 3, the inner connecting webs 3 are formed as mirror-image double tongues to the grooves 23 of the plates 2. Small tongues 31 are located on both sides in pairs to hold each of the connecting webs 3 in the small grooves 231. Plates 2 and connecting webs 3 are therefore only displaceable on one another according to FIG. 6.

[0063] The inner connecting webs 3 are dimensioned so that they can be pushed as springs into the grooves 23 and 231 of two adjacent plates 2 to be connected to one another, specifically with a pair of small tongues 31 in a pair of grooves 231 each.

[0064] The outer connecting webs 4 are halves of the connecting webs 3 provided with notch 42. They are as wide as the groove 23. If one pushes a web 4 lengthwise through two plates 2, which are held together using an inner web 3, these plates are no longer displaceable. An additional notch 42 with respect to the rounded corners 24 of the plates 2 at half-length reduces the visibility of the locking tongues 4. If the notch 42 is pushed in the middle between the plates 2, the web 4 remains concealed from the groove 23 in accordance with the notch 42.

[0065] The outer connecting webs 4 are formed as tongues to the grooves 23 of the plates 2. Two small tongues 41 are arranged as a pair on both sides to hold the connecting webs 4 in the small grooves 231 of the plates 2. The pair of small tongues 41 is identically dimensioned as the two tongue pairs 31 of the webs 3.

[0066] The outer connecting webs 4 are dimensioned so that they can be pushed as tongues into the grooves 23 and 231 of two adjacent plates 2 to be connected, specifically with one pair of small tongues 41 in one pair of grooves 231 in each case.

[0067] The rollers 5 according to FIG. 5 each consist of a rod 52 and a foam coating 51 adhesively bonded on the rod 52.

[0068] The rod 52 is formed as a bar or tube and has a thread 521 over the end not covered by the foam coating 51.

[0069] The rollers 5 are screwed with the thread 521 thereof into the threaded holes 21 provided for this purpose in the plates 2.

[0070] Objects, which are tidied in this manner, may be clamped or pushed between the rollers 5. The rollers 5 may also be unscrewed again to house larger objects. The threaded holes 21 are arranged regularly in relation to one another. Due to the adaptable equipping of the threaded holes 21 with rollers 5, this allows the option of providing space for greatly varying objects. FIG. 7 shows a layer 20 made of three plates 2, of which 2 are locked using connecting webs 3 and the third plate 2, which is still displaceable on the connecting web 3, is lockable using the outer connecting web 4. 2 rollers 5 are fastened in the layer 20. In the case of the third roller 5, the rod and having thread is visible, using which the roller 5 can be screwed into the threads of the holes 21 of the plates 2. FIG. 8 shows 6 rollers of a module protruding out of the plate, 3 holes for locking further rollers, and a roller showing its thread outside the plate. Grooves are visible laterally on the plate to lock plates with one another by means of tongues shown in FIGS. 3 and 4.

[0071] 2. In contrast to Example 1, rollers 5 are produced from plastic tubes 52, screws, and foam coating 51, in that the foam coating 51 is adhesively bonded on the tubes 52. The rollers 5 are then screwed into the plates 2, in that the screws are firstly guided through the tubes 52.

[0072] 3. In contrast to Example 1, rollers 5 are produced from plastic tubes 52, screws, and foam coating 51, in that screws are adhesively bonded in the plastic tubes 52 and the foam coating 51 is adhesively bonded on the plastic tubes 52. The rollers 5 are then screwed into the plates 2 using the screws fastened therein.

[0073] 4. To produce modules according to the invention, threaded plates 2, double tongues 3, single tongues 4, and threaded rods 52 of the rollers 5 are produced via injection molding. For this purpose, the tongues 3 and 4 are to be designed matching with grooves 23. The small tongues 31, 41 are also designed matching with the small grooves 231. The small tongues 31, 41 and small grooves 231 hold the plates 2 and tongues 3, 4 so they are displaceable on one another, as long as the tongues 3 are only arranged in parallel to one another. The plates 2 may be locked on one another, in particular as a layer 20, using tongues 3, 4 arranged perpendicularly thereto. The threads 521 of the rods 52 are embodied matching with the threaded holes 21, so that the rods 52 can easily be screwed into and out of the threaded holes 21. A foam sleeve 51, which is cut and milled similarly to paint rollers from foam blocks, is adhesively bonded on each of the rods 52.

[0074] 5. In contrast to the preceding example, to produce modules according to the invention, threaded plates 2, double tongues 3, single tongues 4, and threaded rods 52 of the rollers 5 are milled from wood, metal, in particular aluminum, or plastic, in particular Plexiglas.

[0075] 6. Modules are assembled to form mats, in that the plates 2 having the tongues 3 are pushed against one another to interlock and the layers 20 formed in this case are locked using single tongues 4 at the edges. In this case, layers 20 having individually created patterns are produced. Rollers 5 are screwed using the threads 521 of the rods 52 into the holes 21 of the plates 2 in these patterns. The previously created patterns are further individualized using different colors of the rollers 5.

[0076] 7. Makeup table or standing mirror

[0077] Modules according to one of Examples 1-3 or produced according to one of Examples 4 or 5 are adhesively bonded, in particular as a frame-shaped mat according to Example 6, to the mirror edge or its frame. For example, 5-10 cm squares as plates 2 each having nine 3-5 cm long and 2-3 cm thick rollers 5. The plates 2 are assembled using webs 3 to form tracks, in particular by inserting the connecting webs 3 between the plates 2. The plates are locked with one another by inserting connecting webs 4.

[0078] Lip gloss, mascara, eyeliner, comb, hairbrush, etc. are tidied in a frame assembled from modules according to the invention and arranged around the mirror, in particular rotating mirror. The frame may be expanded outward using additional modules.

[0079] 8. Hand cream, foot cream, books, spectacles, hearing aid, contraceptives, sex toys, nail polish, beverage bottle, snacks, etc. are placed close at hand adjacent to the bed, for example, arranged above a nightstand, in particular using a mat according to the invention according to Example 6 screwed onto the wall through the holes 22.

[0080] 9. A personal organizer according to one of Examples 1-3 or produced according to one of Examples 4 or 5 is adhesively bonded as a mat according to Example 6 on the entry doors in the foyer. For example, consisting of 10-15 cm squares as plates 2 each having nine 5-10 cm long and 3-5 cm thick rollers 5. Keys, mobile telephone, charger, gloves, and spectacles are typically inserted therein and larger objects can be held in roller spaces which are left open.

[0081] 10. In the office, the objects otherwise held on the desktop are held well visible in a mat according to the invention on the wall above the desk, in particular mobile telephone, charger, beverage bottle, gloves, hole punch, stapler, pen, etc.

[0082] 11. In the basement or the garage, tools, cleaners, vehicle and bicycle accessories, toys, etc. are held well visible in mats fastened on the wall.

[0083] 12. In the bathroom, a mat adhesively bonded onto tiles using two-sided adhesive film is used to hold the washing, bathing, and showering, care and cleaning articles otherwise held on shelves, in particular shampoo, brushes, toothpaste, razor, lotion bottles and cans, comb, spray cans, and hairdryer.

[0084] 13. In a kitchen, a cabinet wall is made into the holding surface for kitchen utensils, cleaners, or ingredients. For this purpose, threaded plates 2 are fastened using two-sided adhesive film on the wall and foam rollers are screwed into the threaded plates. Alternatively, the cabinet wall is formed as a threaded plate, into which the rollers are screwed.

[0085] 14. In vehicles, modules made of 66 cm plates 2 are assembled to form patterns in order to hold objects for the crew in rockets and aircraft using the rollers 5 fastened therein, in passenger vehicles and trucks also to hold a smart phone on the dashboard for communication, in particular telephoning and navigating, on ships, trucks, and train cabins to use doors to hold objects for or during staying overnight.

[0086] 15. A dashboard or console as a plate layer 20 or plate 2, and rollers 5 matching thereto, wherein holes 21 are in the dashboard or the console and the rollers 5 are lockable using rods 52 in the holes 21. Foam sleeves 51 fastened on the rods 52 are used for holding accessories, for example, navigation device, CD, USB stick, pen, charger, flatware; personal objects, for example, wallet, keys, smart phone; and provisions, for example, sweets, cigarettes. For this purpose, the utensils to be held are clamped between the rollers. For a better view of a navigation device or smart phone, the rollers obstructing the view of the display screen are detached from the dashboard or not fastened therein to begin with.

[0087] 16. The contents of trouser pockets and jacket pockets can be held visible in all spaces of the above-described examples, so that the search for wallet, keys, mobile telephone, chewing gum, etc. is superfluous.

[0088] 17. The composite material 1 contains 2 bodies connected to form a composite material. The greater part of an inner body 12 is enclosed by an outer body 11 and protrudes with a shorter part 121 therefrom. In this case, it penetrates the outer body 11 over a majority of its length. The outer body 11 is damping, in particular a damping cap or sleeve, preferably a foam sleeve. The inner body 12 is a carrier 12, in particular a rod which can be locked or screwed in, for example, a tube or a bar having a locking unit 121 protruding out of the sleeve 11. Carrier 12 and damper 11 are fastened, in particular adhesively bonded, with one another to form a composite. The carrier 12 protrudes with one end 121 out of the sleeve 11. This end 121 is designed for locking in a base, for example, for a click fitting, a bayonet fitting, or using a thread.

[0089] The main axis of rotation of the moment of inertia of the composite material 1 is preferably an axis of symmetry around which the sleeve 11 and the carrier 12 are aligned at least inside the sleeve. This axis of symmetry is the axis of the rough structures of the carrier, in particular rod, and the sleeve, in particular roller. The carrier contains a fine structure, in particular a clicking or locking structure, thread, or bayonet fitting portion for fastening in an opening, which can deviate from the symmetry.

[0090] Locking of the composite material 1 is performed in a base, which comprises openings formed in this regard, into which the carrier ends protruding out of the sleeve are locked, in particular latched, or screwed in.

[0091] If the composite material is used as a curler, the curls are curled as using known foam rollers. The hair may now additionally be treated by materials conducted in a precisely metered manner through the tubular carrier 12, for example, using hot air, dye, tint, bleach, care product, or shampoo. After usage, the curlers are washed, but then fastened according to the invention in the base for drying or storage. Upon the use thereof as shock absorbers, they are elastic with respect to small loads and they are easily replaceable after greater loads which destroy them. They are therefore ideal legs of devices, for example, record player, mobile telephone, monitor, or spacers for furniture.

[0092] 18. FIG. 2 shows a section through 2 profiles connected to one another by material bonding and a plate having a threaded hole. The profiles are axially symmetrical except for the thread 122. The outer profile is the sleeve 11 and the inner profile is the carrier 12 formed as a tube. The carrier 12 comprises a stop surface 123, to be pressed using this against the surface 22 of the plate 2 upon tightening of the thread 122 in the internal thread 222, in order to lock the composite material 1 in a formfitting manner on the plate 2 in this manner.

[0093] FIG. 3 shows the friction lock of the profiles connected to one another in a materially bonded manner with the plate 2. The contact pressure generated upon tightening locks the carrier with the plate. It requires a jerk for loosening. Without such a jerk, the carrier has no play to wobble. The carrier could fall out of the plate due to wobbling.

[0094] This locking with the composite material 1 is established in that [0095] 2 profiles are connected by means of material bonding to form the composite material 1, wherein a damping sleeve 11 is arranged around the carrier 12, so that the carrier 12 protrudes out of the sleeve 11 in the region of the locking and [0096] the carrier 12 is guided using the part protruding out of the sleeve 11 in the hole of the plate 2, and [0097] at this hole, the carrier 12 is pressed with its stop surface 123 against the surface 22 upon tightening of the composite material 1.

[0098] 19. Instead of a friction-locked locking as according to FIG. 3, an alternative screw fitting is formfitting, in particular a bayonet fitting. A further suitable form fit is a click fitting.

[0099] A form fit or friction lock of a plate 2 and a carrier 12 is thus provided, in which the carrier 12 is held in a hole in the plate 2. According to the invention, in this case the carrier 12 is enclosed in a materially bonded manner by a damping sleeve 11 except for the part 121 protruding into the hole or the part protruding out of the sleeve 11 for locking.

[0100] 20. To produce the composite material 1 from a foam sleeve 11 and a rod 12, in particular tube, a rod 12 is produced in injection molding having a thread 122, which ends at a stop 123. The rod 12 is adhesively bonded according to the invention up to the stop in the foam sleeve 11, out of which the thread 122 then protrudes.

[0101] The composite material is suitable for cleaning hollow bodies, corners, attachments, and cabinet surfaces. For cleaning the composite material, it is preferably made washing-machine-safe or the carrier is formed as a tube. If the carrier of the composite material is formed as a tube, the composite material is suitable as a filter. Such filters are suitable for application and metering of liquids, in particular cleaners, care products, or coloring agents, for example, for treating hair.
