Description

The present invention relates to a device for producing a flexible material strand according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method for producing a flexible material strand according to the preamble of claim 12.

Flexible strands of material, in particular hoses filled with a bulk material or a liquid, are used in a variety of ways. For example, they can be used as hose barriers to protect against flooding, flooding and erosion. In addition, they can serve as a basis for dykes and dams, the hoses then being enclosed with earth, tarpaulins and the like. Building material. This means that military protective walls can also be erected or landscapes can be designed in a targeted manner.

Instead of filled sacks, which are mainly known from flood protection, such flexible material strands have the advantage that there are fewer predetermined breaking points that can allow flooding to penetrate, since the material strands are much longer than relatively small sacks. In addition, almost any contours can be produced with such material strands, because the material strands can be bent relatively freely in relation to their length.

It is known in this context from the DE 10 2004 009 662 A1 It is enough to collect sand in a loader shovel and fill it into gathered hoses via a screw conveyor connected to the loader shovel. These filled hoses then form a strand of material that is immediately placed on the spot. In this way, however, only strands of material with a relatively small diameter and short length can be freely handled. For larger diameters and the associated higher weights, the output into the hose must be essentially at floor level, because otherwise the hose will automatically pull off due to its high weight. With such a storage at floor level, however, no randomly designed systems can be built with the material strands because the wheel loaders cannot be maneuvered at will and, in particular, must have a solid base at the location of the storage. The length is in turn automatically limited by the pushed-on hose, which cannot be made available in any length.

Due to the free rotation of the housing 26th and thus the device 12th for transporting the flexible material strand 11 opposite the movement device 14th as well as the additional free pivotability of the strand removal means 38 opposite the housing 26th can the movement device 14th be moved on a solid surface while the flexible material strand produced 11 freely handled and to the base 46 can be piled up.

Instead of a free rotation of the housing 26th around the axis of rotation 27 however, it could also be provided that the housing 26th opposite the movement device 14th is arranged rigidly, whereby the material strand distribution then solely through the pivotability of the strand discharge means 38 he follows. This rigid design would have the advantage that then the feed container 18th would always remain in the same place, whereby it can be easily filled, for example by an excavator (not shown).

To fill the feed container 18th can also be used directly from the truck, in addition to the feed hopper 18th consist of a receptacle (not shown) that is as deep on the facility 10 is arranged so that it can be easily filled directly from the truck. Additional transport means, for example in the form of a screw conveyor or a conveyor belt, would then be provided, which would move the material from the receiving container into the feed container 18th transfer if necessary.

The device according to the invention 12th for transporting the flexible material strand 11 is used below in connection with the 6th to 11 described in more detail.

It can be seen that the hose forming device 34 downstream extraction unit 36 a frame 100 has, in which a lower conveyor belt 102 and an upper conveyor belt arranged directly above it 104 . The lower conveyor belt 102 forms at the same time the support and a first drive means for the flexible material strand to be transported 11 . The upper conveyor belt 104 at the same time forms the means for weighing down the flexible material strand to be transported 11 and a second drive means for the flexible strand of material to be transported 11 .

The drives (not shown) of the lower conveyor belt 102 and the upper conveyor belt 104 are each electric motors, the drive rollers for the conveyor belts 102 , 104 drive. These drive rollers and associated guide rollers for the conveyor belts 102 , 104 are displaceable in their distance from one another in order to maintain the tension of the conveyor belts 102 , 104 to be able to adjust.

Both the lower conveyor belt 102 as well as the upper conveyor belt 104 are stationary in the frame 100 arranged. However, it can also be provided that the upper conveyor belt can be displaced vertically at least on one side, preferably completely and in any orientation, in order to thereby adapt to height differences in the transported flexible material strand 11 to be able to react.

There are also funds 106 for lateral guidance of the transported flexible material strand 11 in the form of several in relation to the flexible strand of material being transported 11 oppositely arranged, vertically aligned rollers or rollers.

Through the trigger unit 36 who have that in the means 16 for the production of the flexible material strand 11 generated strand of material 11 from the tube forming device 34 is withdrawn for a steady removal of the generated strand of material 11 taken care of the strand of material 11 is compressed and formed at the same time.

In 8th can be seen that the strand laxative 38 are designed as a boom, the three identically designed boom modules 108 , 108 ' , 108 " having. Each of these boom modules 108 has two lower conveyor belts 110 (see. 9 ) with an intermediate roller between each 112 is arranged. In contrast to the conveyor belts 110 that again have drive rollers 114 and corresponding electric motors (not shown) can be driven, are the intermediate rollers 112 freely rotatable. As in 9 shown can be the spacing of a conveyor belt 110 assigned drive roller and the corresponding guide roller 116 can be changed to adjust the tension of the conveyor belts 110 to be able to adjust.

In addition, there could also be upper conveyor belts (not shown) around the transported flexible material strand 11 to complain.

As part of the rope laxative 38 are between two boom modules 108 additional intermediate rolls 118 arranged. In addition, there are intermediate roles 118a , 118b also on the boom module 108 towards the housing 26th and on the last boom module in the transport direction 108 " .

In the 10 and 11 can be seen both on the side of the conveyor belts 110 as well as on the side of the intermediate rolls 112 Laterally vertically aligned guide rollers 120 , 122 are arranged, through which an outflow of the transported flexible material strand 11 from the conveyor belts 110 and the intermediate roles 112 , 118 is prevented.

In 12th is the device according to the invention 10 shown in a partially manufactured state. It can be seen that the transfer of the flexible material strand 11 from the trigger unit, not shown 36 to the boom, not shown 38 via three roller guides 124 , 126 , 128 he follows.

The first roller guide 124 is stationary on the housing 26th arranged. The second roller guide 126 is stationary on a rotary module 130 (see. 13th , 14th ) arranged. And the third roller guide 128 is stationary on a boom connection 132 (see. 15th , 16 ) arranged.

The rotary module 130 has a rotary module housing 134 on, with the roller guide 126 that are included in 13th shown and in 14th is not shown, rests on a frame 136 and a guide plate 138 with a front round area 140 and a straight back edge 142 has and freely rotatable rollers between them 144 .

The rotary module housing also has 134 an upper connector 146 and a lower connector 148 for rotatable mounting 44 in the case 26th . There are also camps on both sides 150 for pivoting storage 42 of the boom connection 132 in the rotary module 130 .

The boom connection 132 has a boom connection frame 152 on with a pivot bearing 154 that in the camps 150 is added to the pivoting storage 42 to guarantee.

It's in the 15th , 16 continue to see that the third roller guide 128 turn on a frame 156 rests, being in a baffle 158 freely rotating rollers 160 are arranged. In 16 is storage 162 these roles 160 to see who is under the baffle 158 is arranged.

The baffle 158 of the boom connection 132 has a straight edge on both sides 164 , 166 on. The front straight edge 164 of the boom connection 132 stands in the assembled state (cf. 12th ) the rear straight edge 142 of the rotary module 130 opposite, while the rear straight edge 166 to the first intermediate roll 118a of the boom 38 shows (cf. 8th ). The front round area 140 of the baffle 138 of the rotary module 130 again covers the first roller guide 124 (see. 12th ), so that for each case of a possible horizontal and / or vertical pivoting of the boom 38 opposite the housing 26th a closed roller guideway 124 , 126 , 128 , 118a consists.

In 17th you can see that the rotary module 130 a lever connection on one side 168 has on which a hydraulic cylinder 170 is arranged (see also 2 ), the other with the housing 26th connected is. This allows the boom to pivot horizontally 38 around the vertical axis 42 to be controlled.

In 18th you can see that the rotary module 130 four attachment points 172 , 174 having, the lower stop points 172 on the rotary module housing 134 and the upper attachment points 174 on a cross member 176 are arranged this cross member 176 is about a wave 178 firmly to the top connector 146 connected.

In 1 and 2 can be seen that a linkage 180 consists of both the Rotary module 130 , namely the lower attachment points 172 , as well as with the boom 38 , namely on between the second boom module 108 ' and the third boom module 108 " attached boom anchor points 182 (see. 8th ).

The linkage 180 has two sides 184 , 186 each with two rod parts 188 , 190 , where in the transition from the first rod part 188 to the second boom part 190 a cross brace 192 that consists of the two sides 184 , 186 connects and stiffened.

On this cross brace 192 there are, in turn, oppositely arranged attachment points 194 . Two controllable hydraulic cylinders 196 are each with the upper attachment points 174 of the cross member 176 and the anchor points 194 of the linkage 186 connected so that through targeted control of the hydraulic cylinder 196 the vertical pivoting of the boom 38 around the horizontal axis of rotation 44 can be adjusted.

To the balance of the establishment 10 for every case of the horizontal pivoting of the boom 38 around the vertical axis 42 to be able to maintain exists on the cross member 176 one to the boom 38 counter-jib rotating in the opposite direction 198 on which a suitable counterweight 200 is arranged. If, on the other hand, the weight of the facility 10 on the side of the reservoir 18th is large enough, such additional counter-jib can also be used 18th and counterweights 200 be dispensed with, as in 1 is shown.

19th shows a section through the hinge means 40 transverse to the longitudinal direction L. and 20th shows a plan view of the hinge means 40 longitudinal L. .

It can be seen that the axis of rotation 42 through two waves 178 , 202 is formed, each fixed (by means of feather key connections) to the housing 134 of the rotary module 130 are connected and each in the housing 26th with spherical roller bearings 204 , 206 are stored. These spherical roller bearings 204 , 206 can transmit particularly high forces without wear.

By using the split shaft 178 , 202 is the rotary module 130 constructed as a cage through which the strand of material 11 can be easily transported through for all pivoting areas.

In addition, the axes lie 42 , 44 in one plane, making the joint means 40 are designed to be particularly effective, space-saving and low-wear.

In the boom connection 132 are side guides 207 provided in the form of sliding surfaces around the strand of material 11 within the joint 40 to guide laterally and thereby to center, so that a steady transport of the material strand even with larger horizontal pivoting 11 remains guaranteed. The guides 207 could, however, also be formed by roles and the like

The movement device 14th has two chains 208 , 210 (see. 12th ), which can be driven separately (not shown) in order to enable both straight-ahead running or reverse running and cornering with appropriate synchronization. In addition, there is opposite to the chassis 212 lateral telescoping of the chains 208 , 210 so that the footprint of the movement device 14th can be adapted as required on a subsurface or the floor space for the transport of the facility 10 on a semi-trailer or the like. (not shown) can be reduced.

In 21 to 25th are the means 16 for production shown in more detail.

It can be seen that the means 20th for the production of the material strand covering 22nd next to the pulling shoulder 32 a tube forming device 34 have the sewing material 220 and stitching agents 222 having. The forming shoulder (drawing shoulder) 32 has a deflecting edge 224 for the wrapping material 30th on that a guide tube 226 limited, which at its upper end has a tapering slot except for a narrow gap 228 having. The guide tube 226 is through a crack 229 from a cylinder segment-like shelf 230 spaced. At a distance from the shelf 230 through a gap 231 a receiving tube closes 232 at.

The sewing supplies 220 are designed as lockstitch machines with a horizontal sewing direction (direction of movement of the sewing needle along the length of the sewing needle). Here are the sewing supplies 220 preferably adapted, two seams 233 put in parallel.

Through this sewing material 220 become the two outer edges of the wrapping material 30th that in the slot 228 are brought together and placed vertically next to each other, sewn together, so that the material strand covering 22nd forms.

The mesh-forming means 222 are designed as Kemafil ^® machines, such as those in the publications DD 110 905 A1 , DE 37 05 573 C2 , WO 00/34561 A1 and DE 102 59 845 A1 is described on their reference is made in full to the relevant content.

More precisely, the knitting agents exhibit 222 four hook grippers 234 (stitch-forming parts), each around the gap 231 with respect to a longitudinal center axis of the shelf 230 are pivotably arranged so that there is always a hook gripper 234 the wickerwork carried by the hook gripper placed in front of the 234 takes over. The hose receiving tube 232 assumes the role of a guide tube for a Kemafil ^® machine.

Through these mesh-forming means 222 becomes the strand of material 11 with the material strand covering 22nd of a mesh structure 236 surrounded, made parallel to the longitudinal axis of the strand of material 11 running rows of stitches 238 and spirally around the strand of material 11 running wales 240 is formed as in 26th is shown.

This combination of seams 233 and mesh structure 236 in cooperation with a material strand covering 22nd The material strand is made of a textile material 11 itself very durable and at the same time resilient during transport and storage and is still so flexible that it can be easily manipulated.

Through the gap 231 between shelf 230 and guide tube 232 there is a possibility of deduction for the mesh structure 236 from the shelf 230 (if this from the stitch-forming agents 222 already about the filing 230 is generated) so that the one with the mesh structure 236 sheathed strand of material 11 into the guide tube 232 can be transferred.

Filing 230 serves on the one hand to support and guide the material strand 11 between the guide tube 226 and the hose receiving tube 232 .

On the other hand, the shelf is used 230 the compaction of the material in the strand of material 11 , including the shelf with a vibrator 242 is connected, which is designed for example as an electrically driven eccentric vibrator.

The shelf is also used 230 as the basis for a level sensor 243 holding a rotating wheel 243a includes that on a lever arm structure 243b is hinged. With the help of this level sensor 243 the parameters: filling quantity, connection speed for the opposite sides, wrapping speed and take-off speed depending on the filling level in the flexible material strand 11 be regulated so that a predetermined fill level is maintained, preferably within a tolerance range for the predetermined fill level.

The means 24 for filling the in the storage container 18th stored sand have a housing 244 with an inlet 246 that with the storage container 18th is connected, and an outlet pipe 248 on that in the conduit pipe 226 reaches in without touching it - there is thus an annular gap (not shown) between the outlet pipe 248 and conduit pipe 226 .

The means 24 for filling are designed as screw conveyors, with inside the housing 244 there are one or more augers that remove the material from the storage container 18th transport and compress. Preferably there are three intermeshing augers and an upper channel can be provided in which coarse material is transported. With regard to the design of the funds 24 to fill in is on the WO 2007/147540 A1 referenced, the relevant content of which is included in full.

In 26th showing a detailed view with a section in the horizontal plane above the lower conveyor belts 110 shows, it can be seen that the transport of the strand of material 11 takes place without interruption, namely from the take-off unit (strand feeder) 36 via a fixed guide plate 250 with appropriate roles 252 , then over the baffle 138 with the roles 144 , then the baffle 158 with the roles 160 , over the intermediate roll 118b to the lower conveyor belt and intermediate roller 112 , etc.

In 26th is also the control unit 254 the facility 10 to recognize.

• Die Einrichtung 10 wird zum Einsatzort mittels eines Tiefladers oder dgl. verbracht und dort abgeladen. Anschließend wird die Standfläche mittels der teleskopierbaren Ketten 208, 210 auf das notwendige Maß gebracht. Dann fährt die Einrichtung zu ihrem Startpunkt, wobei dieser so gewählt ist, dass die Einrichtung 10 einen ausreichenden Halt auf dem Untergrund findet und zudem ein in Bezug auf den Ausleger 38 ausreichend geringer Abstand zum Ablageort der flexiblen Materialstränge 11 besteht.

The establishment 10 is now used as follows:

• The establishment 10 is brought to the place of use by means of a flatbed truck or the like and unloaded there. The stand area is then closed using the telescopic chains 208 , 210 brought to the necessary level. Then the device drives to its starting point, this being selected so that the device 10 finds sufficient support on the ground and also in relation to the boom 38 Sufficiently small distance to the storage location of the flexible material strands 11 consists.

The reservoir 18th is filled with sand and refilled in the meantime if necessary. Then the boom 38 pivoted so that its front end is above the point at which the start of the material strand 11 should be filed.

The wrapping material 30th is from stock 28 unrolled and over the pulling shoulder (forming shoulder) 32 into the guide tube 226 drawn and thereby formed into a tube. The two side ends of the wrapping material 30th are doing this together through the slot 228 guided and over it with the sewing material 220 to the hose 22nd sewn, which was first closed at its front end. Then it is formed into the hose 22nd Sand using the filler 24 filled.

The hose filled with material 22nd is about the shelf 230 guided and with the vibrator 242 vibrated, causing the material in the hose 22nd condensed.

Then the filled tube 22nd with the mesh-forming agents 222 with the mesh structure 236 sheathed and the filled and sheathed hose 22nd is then followed by the stripping agent 36 pulled off and over the hinge unit 40 on the boom 38 promoted.

In the release agents 36 the contact pressure of the upper conveyor belt 104 adjusted and also the speeds of the conveyor belts 110 of the boom 38 and the conveyor belts 102 , 104 the trigger unit 36 as well as the speed of the tube forming device 34 and the speed of the filling means 24 synchronized and adjusted so that a flexible material strand 11 results (cf. 27 ), which is evenly filled with sand over its entire length and thus has a constant diameter.

The level sensor 243 continuously the filling level in the hose 22nd monitors and the parameters: filling quantity, connection speed for the opposite sides, wrapping speed and take-off speed depending on the filling level in the hose 22nd regulated in such a way that a preset fill level, if necessary taking into account a tolerance, is permanently reached in order to guarantee constant quality.

After the flexible strand of material 11 the front intermediate roller 188b of the boom has been reached and from there to the storage location, the device 10 if necessary by means of the movement device 14th move and / or the boom 38 pivoted so that the flexible strand of material 11 is successively deposited according to the planned deposit path.

If a change of direction is to take place in order to generate a second adjacent flexible material strand path 216 or a third applied flexible material strand path 218 in addition to a first flexible material strand path 214, the filling speed of the filling means can be set in advance for a certain time 24 reduced and / or the take-off speed of the take-off unit 36 and the transport speed of the boom 38 be increased, whereby the flexible strand of material 11 has less sand than fill over a certain section. Then the flexible strand of material 11 be bent by 180 ° in this section in order to change direction.

When sufficient length of material strand 214, 216, 218 has been created, the wrapping material 30th severed and the rear end of the hose produced 22nd sewn and thereby closed, the inner propulsion of the device 10 is stopped.

If, however, after the wrapping material has been completely used up 30th If another length of material strand 214, 216, 218 is required, then another roll of wrapping material is required 30th loaded and the beginning of the new wrapping material 30th with the end of the old wrapping material 30th sewn, with no propulsion within the facility 10 takes place until the tie-offs have been completed. The procedure described can then be carried out again, which in principle creates an endless tube in a very safe manner 22nd and filled with sand as a strand of material 11 lets drop.

For transporting the facility 10 can on the one hand the movement device 14th be used. On the other hand, the entire facility can 10 can also be transported on a low loader or the like. The movement device has a central part and chain drives arranged thereon, the chain drives being able to be moved out and in with respect to the central part. In the case of transport on a low-loader, there is then a drive-in to the facility 10 for transport on motorways and the like, to be kept as narrow as possible, while in the case of application, it is moved out, so that the stability of the facility 10 is guaranteed by the largest possible stand base.

From the above illustration it has become clear that the present invention provides a possibility of producing flexible material strands 11 is provided which avoids the disadvantages of the prior art. Here are the strands of material 11 in principle endlessly producible. Even with large diameters of the material strands 11 is a free handleability of the material strands 11 enables. In addition, the production is in terms of the dimensions of the material strand 11 scalable. In addition, the material strand is laid directly after production 11 possible. This allows such flexible strands of material 11 very easy and inexpensive, for example, for the construction of flood protection systems 46 , military protective walls or for targeted landscaping.

Unless stated otherwise, all of the features of the present invention can be freely combined with one another. Unless otherwise stated, the features described in the description of the figures can also be freely combined with the other features as features of the invention. Objective features of the device can also be used in the context of the method, reformulated to form method features, and method features in the context of the device can be reformulated into features of the device.
