"Kit for the construction of a balcony"

The invention relates to a kit for constructing a balcony.

There has long been a desire to add balconies to buildings at a later date or to make them available independently of the concrete ceilings. On the one hand, there is a desire to add balconies to buildings that previously did not have them, or on the other hand, people want to avoid the time-consuming formwork work for balconies in new buildings and, in particular, the cold bridges that occur with balcony surfaces that are integrally attached to the concrete ceilings.

Steel or metal structures for the subsequent installation of balconies are known, for example, from DE-GM 86 12 394 or DE-GM 87 02 848. While the last utility model focuses on the installation of individual balconies, the first utility model concerns a structure in which the balcony support surfaces are integrated into a steel framework similar to the structure in large-bay warehouses, whereby the steel framework is attached on one side to the building to be equipped.

Such balcony constructions already have great advantages over balconies made of in-situ concrete on the ceiling slab of the building. However, multiple balconies in steel construction in particular have the disadvantage that occurring

Sound vibrations usually continue to propagate undisturbed in the steel framework, which can lead to major noise nuisances. If such balcony structures are self-supporting, i.e. manufactured in such a way that they do not place additional strain on the building for which they are intended, they must be constructed with great effort, and so on.

The object of the invention is to create a solution that allows for a very clean visual appearance of the balconies and a self-supporting construction, while retaining the advantages of externally manufactured balconies.

This object is achieved according to the invention by a balcony floor slab and upright columns that can be connected to it, whereby both the upright columns and the balcony floor slab are designed as precast concrete elements.

There are particular advantages associated with the construction of a kit for the construction of a balcony made of precast concrete elements . On the one hand, exposed concrete often adapts to the building image according to conventional building concepts.

better than metal constructions, and on the other hand, the precast concrete elements can be used to create a self-supporting* balcony construction, i.e. one that does not place additional strain on the building, even over several floors. In addition, concrete

than, for example, on-site concrete elements. Precast concrete elements can also be designed more delicately than precast elements that are produced directly on site, the surfaces can be of a particularly high quality and so on.

Further configurations of the kit can be found in the subclaims, whereby an advantageous configuration consists in that two upright columns are provided for each balcony floor plate, the balcony floor plate is equipped with fastening tabs and the upright columns are equipped with corresponding threaded bolts for engaging in these fastening tabs and the like.

The invention provides, in particular for the design of a number of balcony levels one above the other, that in the fastening area of the head end of a column on the balcony floor plate, engagement elements are provided for fastening the foot area of another column arranged flush above it. Here, in a node area, the head end of the lower column and at the same time

The foot end of the additional column to be installed above it must be attached at the same time or afterwards.

In order to achieve a visually appealing image and in particular to completely cover the node area with concrete

This facing element is particularly suitable as direct formwork for quick-setting concrete to be poured into this area after the construction kit has been installed.

In order to facilitate this, the invention also provides that a filling groove is provided in the base area of each column for the introduction of in-situ concrete in the assembly position.

As already mentioned above, the advantage of a kit made of precast concrete parts is, among other things, that all other assembly and design aids can already be taken into account at the factory, such as drainage channels in the balcony floor slab, rainwater drains in the columns, recesses for attaching a balcony stand and mounting brackets for fixing the kit to a building to be equipped with it, as is the case in a further embodiment of the invention.

Further details, advantages and features of the invention will become apparent from the following description and from the drawing, which shows in

Fig. 1 is a plan view of a balcony kit according to the invention,

Fig. 2 is a partially broken view according to arrow Ii in Fig. I,

Fig. 3 is a side view according to arrow ITI in Fig. 1 and in the

Figures 4 to 7 show side views of details of the precast concrete elements of the kit according to the invention.

The kit for constructing a balcony, generally designated 1, consists of prefabricated concrete parts, namely a concrete floor slab 2 and, in the example shown, two support columns 3, which are attached to the balcony floor slab 2 approximately in the middle through the wall sides on the outer edge. The balcony floor slab 2 is attached to a building wall 5 of a building not shown in detail via tabs 4, which are shown in outline.

To Q &mgr;

As can be seen from the figures, in the example shown the cross-section of each column 3 is octagonal, at this point it should be noted that the invention is not limited to this*

From Fig. 2 and 3 it can be seen that at least the two lower columns in the direction of gravity, designated 3a, have a foundation or a base 6, which is either cast on site or is molded directly onto the lower column 3a in the factory.

To connect the balcony floor slab 2 to the head areas of the columns 3, the balcony floor slab 2 in the example shown is approximately in the Witt-? of its narrower

U-shaped steel profile 9 with mounting holes 10 at the top and bottom. The steel profile 9 is attached to the end plate 2 at the factory.

In the head area, as well as in the foot area, each upright column 3 has a threaded pin 11 or 12 which engages in the holes 10 in the steel profile 9 , namely the threaded pin 11 from below and, when an "upper" upright column is placed on top, the threaded pin 12 from above.

The gap or free space that forms between the columns mounted one above the other is bridged by a precast concrete part 13 (Fig. 6) that is essentially T-shaped when viewed from above. After inserting this precast element 13, a cavity is formed, which is shown in dashed lines in Fig. 5. This cavity between the head end of the lower column and the foot area of the upper column is filled with quick-setting concrete after assembly, for which purpose the foot area of the upper column is equipped with a filling groove 14 I through which this concrete can be introduced in order to pour the entire area.

The columns as well as the balcony floor slab 2 are visible as already factory-fitted with drains or downpipes.

ren, the rainwater drain in the balcony floor i

plate 2 is designated 15 in Fig. 5c, the respective downpipe in the upright columns 3 is designated 16. !

f In Fig. 1 it is also shown that the balcony floor slab '2 does not have to be rectangular, it can also be provided with bevelled free corners, for example, which is shown there in dashed lines. In Fig. 1 the lower lintel 17 on the balcony floor slab 2 is also shown in dashed lines, which can be provided depending on the size of the building. ;

Of course, the described example can be modified in many ways without losing sight of the fund idea.
