Description

The invention relates to a method for assembling a gabion, comprising a filling space-limiting grid mats, wherein the grid mats each comprise at least two mutually spaced a free space forming double bars and at least two spaced apart individual bars, wherein the individual bars are perpendicular to the double bars and wherein the connection in each case two adjoining grid mats at least one connector is provided, which has at least one base part with at least one holding portion. Furthermore, the invention relates to a novel connector with which the adjacent grid mats can be detachably connected to each other, a hanging tab and a kit for the preparation of mountable by the inventive method gabions.

In DE 10 2011 051 116 A1 is a gabion made of mesh mats, called material basket, shown, in which the respectively consisting of single and double bars grid mats are connected to each other via connectors, here: corner connectors. The connector is composed of an upper shell and a lower shell connected thereto, wherein the retaining regions are formed both on the upper shell and on the lower shell. Accordingly, the upper holding portion overlaps the respective horizontal double bars and the lower holding portion engages the same. A disadvantage of the known connector is its complex production and the need to screw the upper shell to the lower shell or to weld. With the corner connectors arranged only at an angle of 90 ° grid mats can be connected together. For the connection of differently arranged, for example, above or next to each other standing grid mats, said corner connector is not suitable.

The DE 10 2010 040 303 A1 describes a spacer clip, which may also be designed as a corner clip, for a stone fence and a method for mounting the stone fence using the spacer clip. The spacer clip is intended for engagement with at least one stone fence wall element, such as in particular a double bar mat element. As an "intervention" is in the DE 10 2010 040 303 A1 understood that the spacer clip is hung or hooked into a suitable area of the stone fence wall element. Particularly suitable areas are considered horizontal or vertical rods, from which the preferred for mounting double rod mat elements often exist. The thickness of such a bar is in the DE 10 2010 040 303 A1 referred to as clamping depth. In order to ensure a secure connection between the spacer clip and the stone fence wall element, the end of the spacer clip must be shaped so that it can enclose or cover this clamping depth as completely as possible. A disadvantage of a spacer clip designed as a corner clip is that only one end of the clip is designed as a fixing element, and the other end, designed as a fixing arm, only engages in the region formed between two horizontal bars.

The object of the invention is to design a defined in the preamble method for mounting a gabion with a novel connector, which requires less material, is easy to manufacture and versatile. The object of the invention is also to propose the required for the preparation of the gabions connector, functioning on the principle of the connector hanging tabs and a kit for the production of mountable by the process according to the invention gabions.

This object is achieved by a generic method for mounting a gabion with at least one connector, wherein the holding portion has at least one cheek with a resilient tongue, wherein the tongue comprises at least one free edge, and wherein the connector with the cheek of its holding portion with the resilient tongue is inserted between the double bars and there, after the free edge of the tongue has passed through the adjoining double rod snaps into place.

Of great advantage is that the method of mounting the gabion merely by inserting the connector into the free space of the double rods and slightly bending the tongue with a suitable tool, e.g. a conventional pliers, can be performed. Just as easy disassembly of the established gabion can be handled with the help of the same pliers, with which the tongue arranged on the cheek is compressed.

An important feature of the new connector is that the base and cheeks are made from a single piece of material. Accordingly, the whole connector may be stamped and bent from sheet metal, or optionally molded from plastic, for example by injection molding. The connector is connected to the grid mat by the cheek of its holding portion is inserted with the resilient tongue between two rods of a pair of rods and there, after the upper edge of the tongue has passed the voltage applied to her grid bar engages. The tongue of the metal connector can, as previously mentioned, be helped by the tongue is bent by a small amount by means of the pliers, so that a stable latching position is achieved.

For example, weather-resistant polycarbonate is suitable for the execution of plastic.

In particular, when the connector is made of a resilient material, such as a resilient plastic or a resilient metal, it can be provided that the tongue of the connector in the unloaded or prefabricated state protrudes further from the cheek than the space between allows the double bars for a resistance-free insertion. The cheeks of the connector made of the resilient material with their excellent tongues can be inserted in this case under force. Here, the pre-bent tongue passes the clear width (between the bars) of the free space, is first compressed due to the resilient property, relaxes after passing the double rod pair and takes their original position or shape again.

The base part of the connector may be polygonal in plan view on its flat side, preferably trapezoidal or approximately triangular. However, instead of a larger trapezoidal base or a larger side of an isosceles triangle connecting the cheeks, an arcuate edge may be chosen. Preferably, the base part is flat and flat and runs out in at least one cheek.

The cheeks may be polygonal, preferably rectangular and have a width dimension which corresponds approximately to an inner spacing between the individual bars or is slightly smaller than the said inner spacing.

For the function of the connector, it does not matter in which direction (inward or outward) the tongue points. In view of safer handling, inward alignment is preferred.

Preferably, at least one through opening for receiving a fastening means, such as a cap screw is introduced on the base part, with which the mounting of a ceiling wall of the gabion can be facilitated.

The connector according to the invention is primarily intended for creating gabions, but it is obvious that fence corners and mutually aligned fence sections can be reinforced in this way, at least during the creation of the fence.

With the connector according to the invention also parts of garden furniture can be connected or integrated into the gabion. For example, a garden bench, comprising at least one board can be created as a seat element, which is bolted to the gabion forming grid mats. For screwing the introduced at the base part of the connector openings can be used.

The cheeks of the connector may be at a sharp, obtuse, or right angle to each other. Preferably, right angle connectors ("angle clips") are used to create a rectangular gabion. If the grid mats are to be connected to one another at an angle other than 90 °, it is of course possible to design the connectors so that the holding areas are arranged at the corresponding angle to one another and that the base part connecting the holding areas has a corresponding shape. For example, pairs of connectors with a blunt and pairs of connectors with a corresponding sharp angle (complement angle) can be used, so that a gabion can be created with a parallelogram projection on their footprint.

Furthermore, special embodiments of the connector for juxtaposed or stacked grid mats can be designed. A connector with mutually aligned cheeks is suitable for connecting or reinforcing two in a common plane adjacent lattice mats.

For the superimposed grid mats, a simple connector may be selected, which consists only of a flat base part and two introduced directly into the base part and facing each other, each arranged in a window tongues.

Furthermore, the connector according to the invention can be used for erecting other gardening elements, such as raised beds.

The equipment of the gabion can also include at least one hanging bag for attaching an object, such as an information sign. The hanger tab may comprise a mounting member having at least one through-going mounting aperture and at least one retaining member having an inwardly or outwardly resilient tongue leaving a window. The holding part can engage in the assembled state of the grid mat in the space between the bars of the respective rod pair. The holding part thus corresponds to the holding area of the connector already described, which can be clicked into a grid mat.

The lattice mats forming a gabion together with corresponding connectors can be packaged flat as a complete set, for example in DIY stores. In addition, the invention also relates to a kit for creating gabions, comprising at least two, preferably four, rectangular grid mats and at least two connectors. The number of connectors is dependent on the size of the grid mesh and the resulting weight of the volume, possibly filled with stones. It is also possible that the grid mats are in curved, for example semicircular, shape, so that from two semicircular grid mats with at least two connectors a circular or elliptical gabion can be created. Furthermore, a kit may include, for example, three grid mats and a corresponding number of connectors for creating a triangular gabion or four grid mats for creating a rectangular gabion.

The kit may also include at least one hanger as described above.

One with reference number 20 referred to a filling space 30 bounding, rectangular gabion is in 6 displayed. The gabion 20 consists essentially of four rectangular, in terms of area in pairs coexisting grid mats 10.1 . 10.3 ; 10.2 . 10.4 and several connectors 100 . which the grid mats 10.1 . 10.3 ; 10.2 . 10.4 releasably connect together.

The 5 shows a corner joint 15 two grid mats 10.1 . 10.2 passing through two connectors 100 is formed. Of course, the corner joint 15 by inserting several connectors 100 be formed, depending on the height of the grid mat has.

The grid mats 10.1 . 10.3 ; 10.2 . 10.4 each have several individual bars 6 and several perpendicular to the individual bars 6 extending pairs of rods 5.1 . 5.2 Called double bars. The intersecting rods form rectangular meshes 18 of the size 5 cm x 20 cm (see in particular 5 and 6 ). The bars or grid mats are galvanized in a dipping bath DIN EN ISO 1461 ,

In 20 and 21 is a similar gabion 21 represented, the filling space 30 with stones 22 is filled. Characteristic of the gabion 21 are their lattice mats arranged on the narrow side 10.2 . 10.4 , each by an amount C opposite the other grid mats 10.1 . 10.3 are extended. The amount C corresponds to a so-called Bodeneinstand and can be, for example 60 cm tall. As the 21 shows is the gabion 21 with their extensions in two floor foundations 23 concreted. This embodiment ensures a particularly good stability of the gabion 21 ,

The in 1 to 4 shown in detail, one-piece connector 100 is punched out of 2mm thick sheet steel. The connector 100 has a flat base part 1 and two holding areas 2.1 . 2.2 (see. 3 ), which according to 1 each by a drooping, rectangular cheek 3.1 . 3.2 are formed. The cheeks 3.1 . 3.2 are perpendicular to the base part 1 arranged and pointing in one direction. The base part 1 is in plan view on its flat side F (see. 2 ) trapezoidal and has a centrally disposed, through opening 11 on. Of course, as needed, several openings 11 be provided. The cheeks 3.1 ; 3.2 of the connector 100 are in this case at a right angle to each other β arranged.

As the 3 shows is the connector 100 mirror-symmetrical with respect to a symmetry axis indicated by S, which is perpendicular to a trapezium base 14 of the base part 1 is aligned and in the assembled state of the connector 100 a cross point P tangent, in the direction of the rod pairs 5.1 . 5.2 two mesh mats to be connected 10.1 . 10.2 leak. It is understood that the cross point P and the axis of symmetry S are not part of the corner joint; They are merely intended to show the symmetry of the connector 100 which is important for the "fit accuracy" of the corner joint.

On every cheek 3.1 . 3.2 is a rectangular tongue 4.1 . 4.2 leaving an equally rectangular window 7 punched out, which in the present case to the inside (see. 1 and 7 ). As the 4 shows, points the cheek 3.1 . 3.2 a width measure B which is smaller than an inside distance A between the individual bars 6 is. The connector 100 is like the grid mat surface treated (hot dip galvanized).

In the method for mounting the grid mats 10.1 . 10.3 ; 10.2 . 10.4 to one in 6 shown gabion 20 become the connectors 100 with her cheeks 3.1 . 3.2 in oblong open spaces 8th (see. 3 and 7 ) between the bars of the respective bar pair 5.1 . 5.2 so pressed in that the tongue 4.1 . 4.2 through the bars of the bar pair 5.1 . 5.2 is first squeezed and then relaxes, leaving them with their free edge 9 on the staff 5.1 of the rod pair 5.1 . 5.2 hooked. The advantage here is that the cheek 3.1 . 3.2 rounded corner areas 16 (see. 1 ), which allows unhindered insertion into the free spaces 8th facilitate. A particularly stable latching position of the tongue is achieved when the tongue with a tool, such as a pair of pliers 19 (see. 15 ) is slightly bent.

After filling with stones or other material, the interconnected grid mats 10.1 . 10.3 ; 10.2 . 10.4 with a rectangular ceiling wall 12 (see. 6 ). Appropriately are at their corners sheet metal pieces 13 introduced, for example, welded, which preferably similar contours as the base part 1 of the connector 100 exhibit. On every piece of sheet metal 13 is at least one opening 17 , for example, a slot, introduced with the base part 1 located opening 11 corresponds, so that also releasable screw-clamp fasteners can be formed. The ceiling wall 12 Can also be hinged with one of the mesh mats 10.1 . 10.3 ; 10.2 . 10.4 be connected.

Their full stability reaches the gabion 20 only after filling with stones or other filling material (cf. 21 and 22 ; gabion 21 ).

The connector 100 can be at multiple, arbitrary combinations of interconnected gabions 20 ; 21 or fence sections are used. The examples of use are described below with reference to 19 and 22 to 25 described.

That's how it shows 19 two gabions 20 ; 21 of different sizes, of which the larger gabions 21 like the gabions 21 concreted is ( 19 ; floor foundation 23 , Dashed line contour), on the other hand, the smaller one at the larger one is via connectors 100 is suspended. In addition, at the smaller gabion 20 to dispense with a fourth grid mat. To connect the mesh mats together and to hang the smaller gabions 20 on the grid mat 10.4 the larger gabions 21 are the connectors described above 100 used.

In the 22 it is a massive, several gabions 20 created, with stones 22 filled gabion wall 24 in which the gabions 20 staggered towards each other. The grid mats of the single gabions 20 are over the said connectors 100 connected to each other, as it is clearly the enlarged detail D can be seen.

The 23 put one with stones 22 filled protection or boundary wall 25 comprising a plurality of fence sections 26 which are at a constant distance from each other G are arranged and partially U-shaped (in plan view of the footprint of the protective wall 25 ). The U-shaped configuration improves the stability of the protective wall, as well as a space is provided on which, for example, a relaxation corner can be set up with benches. All "inner" and all "outer" fence sections 26 have connectors on their inside and outside corners 100 interconnected (see detail e ).

The 24 shows one of several rectangular gabions 20 . 21 created, greened decoration wall 33 whose narrow mesh mats, as in 21 shown with their Bodeneinständen in the ground foundations 23 are in concrete. On the left side of the figure is a pergola 35 with a bench furnished underneath 34 to see. The bench 34 consists of a gabion 20 as a scaffold and a wooden seat pad 36 , In the pergola 35 waterproof, sun-powered LED light emitters (not shown) can be installed. A columnar gabion 20 (right side of the figure) is at the big gabion 21 via connectors 100 (see. 19 ) hung up.

9 shows another connector 200 which in principle is analogous to the connector 100 but adapted to the particular needs of the longitudinally aligned joint. The cheeks 203 of the connector 200 with punched out windows 207 and tongues 204 lie in a common plane and form there two holding areas 202 , The tongues 204 each ends with a free edge 209 , The base part 201 has in the embodiment three openings 211 on. According to 8th are the connectors 200 for connecting two longitudinally arranged grid mats 10.1 . 10.2 used.

The 10 . 11 . 13 and 14 show a connector 300 , which two superposed grid mats 10.1 . 10.2 connects with each other. The connector 300 has a rectangular base 301 with two punched out windows 307 on, on which the tongues 304 directly inserted and with their free edges 309 are directed towards each other. The base part 301 Does not run into drooping cheeks, but is flat, so that the holding areas 302 through the base part 301 and tongues 304 can be defined. In the method of mounting, the connector becomes 300 with its lower edge 27 into the superimposed open spaces 8th between the pairs of rods 5.1 . 5.2 stuck (vgl. 10 ) until the upper tongue 304 with her free edge 309 on the horizontal bar 5.1 supported. After that, the lower tongue 304 with the help of in 15 shown pliers 19 bent (cf. 11 ). The terms: "upper", "lower", etc. refer to erected mesh mats, such as those in 5 and 6 are shown.

Optionally, the base part 301 of the connector 300 be extended by a stitch size, as it is in the 12 and 14 is shown. In the method of assembly, as in 10 described, proceeding, the lower edge 27 of the base part 301 over the below the upper bar pair 5.1 . 5.2 lying, second rod pair 5.1 . 5.2 protruding downwards. The one-stitch extension can help improve the stability of the connection.

The 16 to 18 is a hanging bag 400 which can also act as a connector as they insert into a grid mat 10.1 clickable holding area 402 with a window 409 and tongue 404 as well as a base part 29 having. At the base part 29 is a continuous mounting hole 31 for hanging any object, preferably a billboard, an information sign 28 etc. (cf. 17 ). Appropriately, the base part 29 opposite the holding area 402 discontinued (middle bridge 32 . 16 ). According to 18 can the object to be held base part 29 both inwardly and outwardly pointing to the grid mat 10.1 be arranged.

Finally, the shows 25 a kit 37 for creating rectangular gabions 20 comprising (in its basic configuration) four grid mats 10.1 . 10.2 ; 10.3 . 10.4 and eight connectors 100 , In figure are only four connectors 100 shown. The parts of the kit 37 including instructions are flat packed in a box (not shown) and sold as a self-assembly complete set. Of course, kits may be provided in other configurations.
