Description
- This invention relates to a support for supporting a structure on the ground or other support surface, hereinafter for convenience referred to as "the ground". The structure supported may, for example, comprise either a building or building unit of the type which is prefabricated and delivered to a prepared site, either in fully erected form or in the form of a knock-down pack. Such a structure will hereinafter be referred to as "a building structure".
- It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that a support in accordance with the invention may however be used to support other structures, but for the sake of brevity, the invention will be described hereinafter in relation to a building structure.
- It is known to provide a building structure with one or more supports which are telescopically adjustable so that the structure can be raised and lowered relative to the ground to enable the structure to be loaded onto or unloaded from the deck of a lorryforexample. One support for such a structure is disclosed in British Patent No. GB-A-982,839. Inthearrangements described telescopic extension or retraction of the support is achieved using a cam which engages an abutment of the outer telescoping part of the structure, and is pivotable relative to the inner telescoping part. When the support has been extended/retracted a set distance substantially equal to the maximum movement which can be attained by the cam in that position, a pin is inserted in an opening in the inner telescoping part, the pin being engaged by the outer telescoping part to relatively lock the inner and outer parts together. The pivot of the cam is then shifted so that the cam can again act on the abutment to extend the support by a further set distance.
- The cam is usually rotated manually by a lever and the set distances are usually about 50mm. The inner telescoping part of the support is therefore usually provided along its length with a series of openings at 50mm spacings.
- However, problems arise with very heavy structures in that the mechanical advantage of the cam, even using a lever, is insufficient to permit easy rotation of the cam to effect lifting and controlled lowering of the structure.
- It is not possible simply to decrease the spacing of the openings provided in the inner telescoping part, and to adjust the cam profile to achieve smaller set distances of movement because the additional openings needed would substantially weaken the inner telescoping part, which needs to be as strong as possible for very heavy structures.
- It is an object of the present invention to provide a new or improved support for a structure.
- According to one aspect of the invention, we provide a supprot having an inner part telescoped within an outer part with one of said inner and outer parts having means to secure the part to a structure to be supported, the other of said inner and outer parts having a foot for engagement with the ground, the inner or outer part having along its length a series of openings, each opening being capable of receiving an axle of a cam means, the cam means further including an eccentric cam which acts on the outer or inner support part respectively, and lever means to rotate the cam and hence cause telescopic extension of the parts, locking means being provided to preventtelescop- ic retraction of the parts when the inner and outer parts are in selected relative positions, the inner or outer part on which the cam bears having first and second abutments at positions displaced longitudinally of the support, and the cam being engageable with the first and second abutments selectively.
- Thus the outer part can be relatively telescoped a first set distance by engaging the cam with the first abutment, and a second set distance thereafter by engaging the cam with the second abutment.
- The series of openings in the inner member are prefereably regularly spaced, in which case the first and second set distances may add up to a total set distance equivalent to the spacing between the openings in the inner part.
- Hence the mechanical advantage achieved by the cam can be increased so that the first and second set distances of relative movement between the inner and outer telescoped parts are small over the entire travel of the cam whilst the total distance may be sufficiently large that an excessive number of openings in the inner or outer telescoped part are not required.
- The first and second abutments, as well as being longitudinally dispfaced, may be transversely displaced, the cam being transversely moved, for example along its axis of rotation, to enable the cam to engage either the first or the second abutments. The locking means may need to be employed to provide support whilst the transverse movement of the cam is carried out.
- The part on which the cam bears may be provided with an aperture which can be aligned with each of the openings of the series of openings of the other part, and the locking means, which may be a pin or the like, may, in use, be received in the aperture and an aligned one of the series of openings, to relatively lock the inner and outer parts against telescopic retraction.
- However, because the first and second set distances are each less than the spacing between the openings of the series of openings in a preferred embodiment two apertures are provided in the part on which the cam bears, each aperture extending longitudinally of the support, a distance substantially equal to the first or the second set distance, whichever is the greater, although usually the first and second set distances and hence the extent of each of the apertures would be substantially equal.
- In this way, the pin may be moved from one aperture to the other whilst the part on which the cam bears is supported relative to the other part by the cam means, and the longitudinal and transverse positions of the cam can be moved whilst the parts are supported against retraction by the locking means received in either one of the apertures, whichever is suitably aligned with an opening of the series of openings.
- The first abutment may be provided on the outer part and may comprise a bearing surface at the end of the outer part in which the inner part is received and the second abutment may comprise a bearing block secured at the end of the outer part. If desired, stop means may be provided between the first and second abutments to prevent inadvertent transverse movement of the cam.
- Preferably, the cam means includes a second eccentric cam, the first mentioned cam and the second cam being located on opposite sides of the support, the part having the first and second abutments having further abutments with which the second cam can be engaged, the first and second cams being of identical profile and being movable integrally. For example, the first and second cams may each comprise one leg of a U-shaped stirrup to which the lever is connected, the axle being insertable in aligned bores in the cams through a selected aligned opening in the part in which the series of openings are provided.
- Thus on one side of the support, the first abutment may lie more closely to the longitudinal axis of the support whilst on the other side of the support the second abutment may lie more closely to the longitudinal axis of the support.
- Preferably, neither the first or second set distance is greater than 25mm for a 60° rotation of the cam or cams.
- The foot on which the support rests may comprise the bottom surface of the outer end of the part on which it is provided, but preferably comprises a plate secured to the bottom surface, the plate being of larger cross-sectional area than the support to spread the load transmitted through the support to the ground.
- The inner and outer parts may both be of square cross-section, although one or both of the inner and outer parts could be round or of any other desired cross-sectional configuration.
- The support according to the first aspect of the invention enables a novel method of adjusting the height of a structure above the ground to be carried out, and thus it is another object of the invention to provide a new or improved adjustment method.
- According to a second aspect of the invention, we provide a method of adjusting the height of a structure above the ground utilising a support according to the first aspect of the invention, said method including the steps of inserting the axle of the cam means in one of the openings of the part in which the series of openings are provided, rotating the eccentric cam or cams using the lever, about the axle thereof with the or each cam bearing on the or the respective first abutment of the other telescoped part to cause telescoping of the parts to a selected relative position, engaging the locking means to prevent telescopic retraction of the parts, rotating the cam or cams using the lever with the or each cam bearing on the second abutment to cause further telescopic extension of the parts to a further selected relative position.
- Preferably the locking means is again then engaged to prevent telescopic retraction of the parts beyond said further relative position.
- The method may include the step of moving the cam or cams transversely after the locking means is first engaged, to bring the cam or cams to bear on the or the respective second abutment. Where a stop means is provided between the or at least one of the first and second abutment to prevent inadvertent transverse movement of the cam which bears on the abutments, if necessary, a movement of the cam may also be required, when transversely moving the cam to bear on the second abutment, to enable the cam to clear the stop means.
- The invention is particularly applicable to supporting a building structure and hence it is another object of the invention to provide a new or improved building structure when supported by a support according to the first aspect of the invention.
- The building structure may have four supports symmetrically arranged around the structure, each of the supports comprising a support in accordance with the first aspect of the invention, or the structure may have less than or more than four supports.
- The invention will now be described with the aid of the accompanying drawings, in which:
- FIGURE 1 is a side view of part of a support in accordance with the first aspect of the invention;
- FIGURE2 is a front view partly in section, showing the cam means of the support of Figure 1 engaged with a first abutment;
- FIGURE 3 is a viewsimilarto Figure2 butshow- ing the cam means engaged with a second abutment;
- FIGURES 4a, 4b and 4c show stages in a method of adjusting a support according to the second aspect of the invention with the cam means omitted for clarity.
- Referring first to Figures 1 to 3, a
support 10 comprises anouter part 11 and aninner part 12, bothparts outer parts - The
outer part 11 has means (not shown) to enable thepart 11 to be secured to the building structure to be supported. Such means may comprise plates, welded or otherwise attached, to theouter part 11, which plates may have means to receive bolts which engage the structure. - At the lower end of the
inner part 12 welded or otherwise secured to the bottom ofpart 12, there is provided afoot 13 comprising a rectangular plate which, in use, spreads the load transmitted through the support to the ground. Alternatively, the bottom ofpart 12 could itself provide a foot. - Afirst abutment comprising a
bearing surface 14 is provided by aplate 15 secured to the bottom surface of theouter part 11. Theplate 15 has a cut out 16 therein through which theinner part 12 slides. - The
inner part 12 has provided therein a series ofopenings 17, only one of which is shown in Figure 1, theopenings 17 each extending right through theinner member 12 and being of substantially circular configuration. Where theinner member 12 is solid, theopenings 17 would be provided as through bores, but in a preferred embodiment where theinner part 12 is provided as a box or other hollow section, theopenings 17 are provided by aligned openings in opposite sides of the section. - Further alternatively, the openings may be provided by formations attached to or formed in or on the
part 12. - Received in the
openings 17, as shown in Figure 1, is anaxle 18 of a cam means 20, the cam means further comprising first andsecond extension cams 21 which each provide a leg of a U-shaped stirrup, thecams 21 extending either side of thesupport 10 as can best be seen in Figures 2 and 3, with theaxle 18 passing throughaligned bores 22 in each of thecams 20. - The
cams 21 andaxle 18 are a loose fit and hence transverse movement of thecams 21 along the axle 18 a well as a rotational movement about theaxle 18 is permitted. - The
cams 21 each have identicaleccentric profiles 24 which as can best be seen in Figure 2, bear on thebearing surface 14 on the underside ofplate 15. Hence rotation of thecams 21 about theaxle 18 causes telescopic extension of theouter part 11 relative to theinner part 12 as the point of engagement of thebearing surface 14 and theeccentric cam profiles 24 varies. - The
cam profiles 24 are of such configuration that a 60° rotation of thecams 21 will cause a 25mm vertical distance of movement between theouter part 11 andinner part 12 of thesupport 10. - Alternatively, as shown in Figure 3, the
cam profiles 24 can each be engaged with a second abutment comprising abearing block 25 which is secured to the underside ofplate 15. Again, if such position is adopted, a 60° movement ofcams 21 would provide a 25mm vertical distance of movement between theouter part 11 and theinner part 12 of thesupport 10. - The distances moved are small, i.e. only 25mm. To assist rotation of the
cams 21, the stirrup is secured to alever 26 which extends upwardly, the large movement of the lever, carried out to achieve a 60° cam rotation, particularly as the lever is long, affording the operator a large mechanical advantage and hence rotation of thecams 21 is achieved without undue resistance. - To give support to
plate 15 and firstouter part 11 to the structure, afixing plate 23 is welded or otherwise secured to thesupport 10. - Referring now to Figures 4a, 4b and 4c, a locking means comprising a
pin 27 is shown which is provided to prevent telescopic retraction of theinner part 12 relative to theouter part 11 once the inner and outer telescoped parts have been moved by rotation of thecams 21 to their relative set posi - tions. - In Figures 4a, 4b and 4c, a plurality of the series of
openings 17 can be seen. These openings are spaced apart by 50mm, i.e. a distance twice the distance of movement which can be achieved by a single rotation of thecams 21 through a full 60° when engaged with eithersurface 14 orblock 25. - Provided in the
outer part 11 are twoapertures 28. 29 comprising slots. Theslots support 10 for a distance of about 45mm. Further, theslots - Referring first to Figure 4a, the locking
pin 27 is at the upper end of theupper slot 28 and hence the load, i.s. the weight of the structure which is transmitted through theouter part 11, is transmitted to pin 27 and frompin 27 to theinner part 12 and hence to thefoot 13. - To raise the height of the structure above the ground, the following method is adopted.
- Starting from the Figure 4a position, with the cams 21 (which are not shown in Figures 4a, 4b and 4c for clarity), being in engagement with the first abutments provided by the bearing
surface 14, thecams 21 are rotated through their full 60°. This will bring theopenings 17 andslots lower slot 29. Hence, while the load is supported by thecams 21, the lockingpin 27 can be removed from its original position and re-engaged in the opening 17a andslot 29. Now the load may be transmitted from theouter part 11 through thepin 27 in the opening 17a to theinner part 12 and thecams 21 need not further support the load. - Thus, the
cams 21 may be disengaged from engagement with thefirst abutment 14 whilst the load is supported by the re-engaged lockingpin 27. - Now the cam means 20 can be transversely moved along
axle 18 to bring each of thecams 21 into engagement with second abutments provided by the bearing blocks 25. - It can be seen in Figures 2 and 3 that between the
first abutment 14 and thesecond abutment 25 at one side of thesupport 10 only, a stop means 30 is provided to ensure that thecams 21 cannot move transversely inadvertently. Hence it is necessary to rotate thecams 21 to allow the cams to clear thestop 30 in order that the cams can be moved to the position shown in Figure 3. - Further, to provide easier rotation and alignment of the
cams 21,spacers 31 are provided on theinner sides 32 of thecams 21. - Now, further rotation of the
cams 21 will result in a further movement between theinner part 12 andouter part 11. This movement will cause opening 17a to adopt the Figure 4c position, i.e. at the bottom ofslot 29 and hence the lockingpin 27 will no longer play any part in transmitting the load through the support. - It can be seen in Figure 4c that a
further opening 17b is now aligned with the upper part ofslot 28. Hence again, with the load being supported by thecams 21, the lockingpin 27 can be removed from opening 17a and reengaged inopening 17b. Now the load may be transmitted from theouter part 11 through thepin 27 when inaperture 17b to theinner part 12 and hence to thefoot 13, and thecams 21 can be rotated to release theprofiles 24 thereof from engagement with the second abutments provided by the bearing blocks 25. - The cam means 20 can be released from engagement with the
inner part 12 by removing theaxle 18 thereof and withdrawing the U-shaped stirrup, and the cam means 20 re-engaged by insertingaxle 18 through the openings in thecams 21 and through the next up opening 17 in theinner member 12. - It can be seen from Figures 4a, 4b and 4c that the total movement of the
outer part 11 relative to theinner part 12 as described is the total of the two smaller distances, i.e. 50mm in all which is the distance betweenopenings 17. The method described can be repeated to raise the building structure a further 25mm or 50mm or whole number multiple of 25mm. - Of course many modifications may be made to the invention without departing from the scope thereof. For example, the inner and
outer parts - Although as described two
cams 21 have been provided, each comprising one leg of a U-shaped stirrup, if desired only one cam need be provided on one side of the support, or two cams may be provided not on a stirrup, although the described arrangement is preferred. - Instead of locking
pins 27, any other means for locking the inner and outer parts relatively whilst adjusting the position of the cam means 20 longitudinally and/or transversely could be used. - Although the first and second abutments have been described as being provided by first the bearing
surface 14 on the underside of aplate 15, and secondly abearing block 25 secured to the underside of theplate 15, if desired one of the abutments could be provided by the bottom edge of theouter part 11, and the other abutment by a cut-out in that bottom edge, or by an abutment welded or otherwise secured to theouter part 11. - Although as described, the distances of movement achieved for a 60° cam rotation have been 25mm and the distance between the
openings 17 in the inner part have been described as being 50mm, of course other arrangements are possible. - As described, the
inner part 12 has been provided with the series of openings, and thecams 21 bear on the outer telescoped part. In another arrangement, the cams may bear on the inner telescoped part in which case the outer telescoped part may have a series of openings to support the axle of the cam means. - Further, where the invention has been described in relation to raising the height of a structure, the
support 10 described and the method described with the steps thereof carried out in the opposite order could be used for controlled lowering of the height of the structure. The invention is particularly applicable to a building structure, but could be used in supporting other structures as required.
