Abstract

A barrier for confining or receiving liquids independently of position comprises hose elements (10, 20) which can be connected together via coupling elements (11, 21). In particular, the coupling elements may be of tubular design and connect the internal spaces of the hose elements together. It is particularly advantageous if the coupling parts each have two annular or circular flanges (11, 12) whose external diameter is less than the diameter of the liquid-filled hose element, and for this purpose commercial fire brigade couplings such as are used for connecting fire-fighting hoses may be employed. By setting back the coupling elements with respect to the face walls of the bead on the end face of the hoses, the adjacently situated beads of adjacent hose elements form an essentially annular sealing surface so that a barrier made up of a plurality of such hoses is able to withstand a high liquid pressure even at the seams formed by the hoses with one another and only minimal liquid losses occur. <IMAGE>

Description

Im Bereich des Umweltschutzes, bei Katastropheneinsätzen oder ähnlichem stellt sich immer wieder die Aufgabe, außer Kontrolle geratene Flüssig­keiten, insbesondere solche mit giftigen oder umweltbelastenden Bestand­teilen auf einen bestimmten Raum einzugrenzen, um Schäden und Zerstörun­gen verschiedenster Art zu verhindern oder wenigstens auf ein Minimum zu reduzieren.In the area of environmental protection, disaster relief or the like, there is always the task of isolating liquids that have gotten out of control, especially those with toxic or environmentally harmful components, in order to prevent or at least minimize damage and destruction of all kinds.

Je nach Art des zu bekämpfenden Unglücks oder Schadenfalls werden hier­für Barrieren verschiedenster Art eingesetzt, beispielsweise Barrieren als Sandsäcke oder massive Wandelemente zur Eindämmung von Überschwemmun­gen.Depending on the type of accident or damage to be combated, various types of barriers are used, for example barriers as sandbags or massive wall elements to contain floods.

Gegenstand der Erfindung ist die Schaffung einer solchen Barriere, die ein­fach transportier- und lagerbar ist sowie einfach aufgebaut.The object of the invention is to create such a barrier that is easy to transport and store and that is simple in structure.

Die erfindungsgemäße Barriere zur ortsunabhängigen Eindämmung oder Auf­nahme von Flüssigkeiten besteht demnach aus Schlauchelementen, die über Kupplungselemente miteinander verbindbar sind. Hierbei können die Kupp­lungselemente rohrförmig ausgebildet sein und die Innenräume der Schlauch­elemente miteinander verbinden, dies ist jedoch nicht zwingend notwendig.The barrier according to the invention for the location-independent containment or absorption of liquids therefore consists of hose elements which can be connected to one another via coupling elements. Here, the coupling elements can be tubular and connect the inner spaces of the hose elements to one another, but this is not absolutely necessary.

Von besonderer Bedeutung bei solchen Schlauchelementen, die sehr flexibel sind, und sich folglich an jede gewünschte Form anpassen lassen, ist die Schaffung einer einwandfreien Abdichtung aneinanderstoßender Schlauchelemente. Hierzu sieht die Erfindung vor, daß die Kupplungsteile je zwei ringförmige oder kreisförmige Flansche beinhalten, deren Außendurchmesser geringer ist als der Durchmesser des flüssigkeitsgefüllten Schlauchelementes. Als sol­che Kupplungsteile können die handelsüblichen Feuerwehrkupplungen verwen­det werden, wie sie im Feuerwehreinsatz zur Verbindung von Löschschläuchen verwendet werden. Die Enden eines Schlauchelementes sind hierbei zwischen den Flanschen des zugehörigen Kupplungselementes eingespannt, ferner ist insbesondere ein Zuschnitt einerseits ebenfalls zwischen den Flanschen des Kupplungselementes eingespannt, andererseits aber auch mit der Innen­wandung des Schlauchelementes fest verbunden, so daß das Kupplungselement beim flüssigkeitsgefüllten Schlauchelement hinter einem ringförmigen Wulst des Schlauchelementes zu liegen kommt.Of particular importance in the case of those hose elements which are very flexible and which can consequently be adapted to any desired shape is the creation of a perfect seal of abutting hose elements. For this purpose, the invention provides that the coupling parts each contain two annular or circular flanges, the outer diameter of which is smaller than the diameter of the liquid-filled hose element. The commercially available fire-fighting couplings can be used as such coupling parts, as are used in fire-fighting applications for connecting extinguishing hoses. The ends of a hose element are clamped between the flanges of the associated coupling element, furthermore in particular a blank is clamped on the one hand also between the flanges of the coupling element, but on the other hand also firmly connected to the inner wall of the hose element, so that the coupling element in the liquid-filled hose element behind an annular bead of the hose element comes to rest.

Es ist hierbei von entscheidender Bedeutung, daß zwischen dem vorderen Ende des Kupplungselementes einerseits und der Stirnwandung des Wulstes andererseits ein nicht zu geringer Abstand verbleibt. Dieser Abstand führt nämlich dazuk daß beim Verschrauben bzw. sonstigen Verbinden der beiden Kupplungsteile die benachbarten Wulste der Schlauchelemente an einandergedrückt werden und eine im wesentlichen ringförmige Dichtfläche bilden. Es hat sich gezeigt, daß solche Dichtflächen derart fest und stabil sind, daß sie auch bei der Verwendung von Schlauchelementen von etwa 50 cm Durchmesser dem entsprechenden Wasserdruck standhalten können und nur minimale Flüssigkeitsverluste auftreten, die gut mit anderen Mitteln beherrschbar sind.It is of crucial importance here that a not too small distance remains between the front end of the coupling element on the one hand and the end wall of the bead on the other. This distance leads to the fact that when the two coupling parts are screwed or otherwise connected, the adjacent beads of the hose elements are pressed against one another and form an essentially annular sealing surface. It has been shown that such sealing surfaces are so strong and stable that they can withstand the corresponding water pressure even when using hose elements of about 50 cm in diameter and only minimal liquid losses occur which can be controlled well by other means.

Der Zuschnitt, mit dem die Kupplungsteile relativ zur Stirnseite der Schlauchenden "zurückgezogen" werden können, kann grundsätzlich eine beliebige Form haben; wesentlich hierbei ist jedoch eine kräftemäßige Verbindung zwischen dem Flansch einerseits und der Innenwandung des Schlauchelementes andererseits.The cut with which the coupling parts can be “pulled back” relative to the end face of the hose ends can in principle have any shape; what is essential here, however, is a force connection between the flange on the one hand and the inner wall of the hose element on the other hand.

Ein Ausführungsbeispiel wird anhand der beiliegenden Figuren 1 und 2 noch näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 zwei benachbarte, gefüllte Schlauchelemente und
  • Fig. 2 die Schlauchelemente der Fig. 1 bei verbunde­nen Kupplungsteilen.
An embodiment is explained in more detail with reference to the accompanying Figures 1 and 2. Show it:
  • Fig. 1 two adjacent, filled hose elements and
  • Fig. 2 shows the hose elements of Fig. 1 with connected coupling parts.

Die Figuren zeigen zwei benachbarte Schlauchelemente 10 und 20, die mit Wasser gefüllt sind. In diesem mit Wasser gefüllten Zustand dienen sie als Barriere zur Eindämmung von Flüssigkeiten verschiedenster Art; gleich­zeitig sind sie auch Aufnahmebehälter für die Lagerung oder Zwischenla­gerung von Flüssigkeiten, insbesondere solchen, die umweltgefährdend sein könnten.The figures show two adjacent hose elements 10 and 20 which are filled with water. In this state, filled with water, they serve as a barrier to contain all kinds of liquids; at the same time, they are also receptacles for the storage or interim storage of liquids, especially those that could be environmentally hazardous.

Um diese Funktionen erfüllen zu können, ist das Ende jedes Schlauchele­mentes 10, 20 mit einem Kupplungsteil 11 bzw. 21 abgeschlossen, derart, daß durch eine Verbindung der beiden Kupplungsteile 11, 21 auch eine kraft­schlüssige Verbindung der beiden benachbarten Schlauchelemente 10 und 20 bewirkt wird. Jedes Kupplungselement 11, 21 besteht im wesentlichen aus zwei miteinander verschraubbaren Flanschen 11A, 11B bzw. 12A, 12B, wobei diese Flansche ringförmig sein können, wenn eine Verbindung zwischen den Volumina der benachbarten Schlauchelemente 10, 20 im zusammengekuppelten Zustand gewünscht sein soll oder auch kreis- oder scheibenförmig, wenn das Volumen jedes Schlauchelementes vom benachbarten Volumen separiert bleiben soll.In order to be able to fulfill these functions, the end of each hose element 10, 20 is closed with a coupling part 11 or 21, such that a connection of the two coupling parts 11, 21 also results in a non-positive connection of the two adjacent hose elements 10 and 20. Each coupling element 11, 21 consists essentially of two flanges 11A, 11B or 12A, 12B, which can be screwed together, these flanges can be ring-shaped if a connection between the volumes of the adjacent hose elements 10, 20 in the coupled state is to be desired or also circular - Or disk-shaped if the volume of each hose element is to remain separated from the adjacent volume.

Der nach außen zeigende Flansch 11B, 12B ist in üblicher Weise mit einem Stutzen 11C, 12C versehen, die an ihrer Stirnseite in bekannter Weise mit­einander korrespondierende Bajonett-Verschlußteile haben,wie dies auch bei Kupplungen von Feuerwehrschläuchen der Fall ist (Kupplungssystem "Storz").The outward-pointing flange 11B, 12B is provided in the usual way with a socket 11C, 12C, which have bayonet-type locking parts which correspond to one another in a known manner on their end faces, as is also the case with couplings for fire hoses (coupling system "Storz") .

Hierbei ist wesentlich, daß der Außendurchmesser Y der Flansche 11A, 11B, 12A, 12B geringer ist als der Durchmesser Z des Schlauchelementes 10 bzw. 20. Zum dichtenden Abschluß sind die Enden des Schlauchelementes 10 bzw. 20 zwischen die beiden Flansche 11A, 11B bzw. 12A, 12B eingespannt. Hierbei können in bekannter Weise noch Dichtungselemente wie Dichtringe oder ähn­liches vorgesehen sein. Außer den Enden des Schlauchelementes nehmen die beiden miteinander verschraubbaren Dichtungsringe 11A, 11B bzw. 12A, 12B auch noch einen Zuschnitt 12, 22 auf, dessen Funktion darin besteht, das Kupplungselement 11, 21 so zu positionieren, wie dies in Fig. 1 bei flüs­sigkeitsgefülltem Schlauchelement 10 bzw. 20 dargestellt ist, nämlich der­art, daß zwischen der Stirnseite des Kupplungselementes 11, 21 und der Stirnseite des Schlauchelementes 10 bzw. 20 ein Abstand X gebildet wird, mit anderen Worten derart, daß das Kupplungselement 10, 11 von einem ringförmigen Wulst 10A, 20A umgeben wird, der das Kupplungselement nach außen überragt. Um dies zu erreichen, kann der Zuschnitt 12, 22 bei­spielsweise aus einem zentralen Abschnitt gebildet sein, der zwischen den Flanschen 11A, 11B bzw. 12A, 12B eingespannt wird und vier flügel- oder lappenähnliche Fortsätze aufweist, deren Enden in dem rückwärtig zum Kupplungsteil gelegenen Schlauchteil befestigt sind, nähmlich an den Innenwandungen. Hierbei ist die Länge dieser Lamellen oder Lappen und deren Anbringungsort auf der Innenwandung des Schlauchelementes 10 bzw. 20 so zu wählen, daß bei gefülltem Schlauchelement der besagte Abstand X gewährleistet wird, daß also das Kupplungselement 11 bzw. 21 weit genug "nach hinten zurückgezogen" wird, um die Bildung des Wulstes 10A bzw. 20A zu gewährleisten.It is essential that the outer diameter Y of the flanges 11A, 11B, 12A, 12B is smaller than the diameter Z of the hose element 10 or 20. For sealing purposes, the ends of the hose element 10 or 20 are between the two flanges 11A, 11B and 12A, 12B clamped. Sealing elements such as sealing rings or the like can also be provided in a known manner. In addition to the ends of the hose element, the two sealing rings 11A, 11B and 12A, 12B, which can be screwed together, also receive a blank 12, 22, the function of which is to position the coupling element 11, 21 in the manner shown in FIG. 1 for a liquid-filled one Hose element 10 or 20 is shown, namely such that a distance X is formed between the end face of the coupling element 11, 21 and the end face of the hose element 10 or 20, in other words such that the coupling element 10, 11 is surrounded by an annular bead 10A, 20A, which projects beyond the coupling element to the outside. In order to achieve this, the blank 12, 22 can be formed, for example, from a central section which is clamped between the flanges 11A, 11B or 12A, 12B and has four wing-like or tab-like extensions, the ends of which in the rear of the coupling part Hose part are attached, namely on the inner walls. Here, the length of these lamellae or rags and their location on the inner wall of the hose element 10 or 20 should be selected so that when the hose element is filled, said distance X is ensured, that is to say that the coupling element 11 or 21 is sufficiently "pulled back" to ensure the formation of the bead 10A or 20A.

Der Effekt dieser konstruktiven Maßnahmen ist in Fig. 2 dargestellt,wo die beiden Schlauchelemente 10, 20 mit Hilfe der Kupplungsteile 11, 21 miteinander verschraubt sind:The effect of these constructive measures is shown in FIG. 2, where the two hose elements 10, 20 are screwed together with the aid of the coupling parts 11, 21:

Nach dem Verschrauben der Kupplungselemente bildet sich beim Befüllen der Schlauchelemente langsam der Wulst 10A und 20A ausmit der Folge, daß die benachbarten Wulste aneinanderstoßen und eine im wesentlichen ringförmige Dichtfläche 30 zwischen den benachbarten Schlauchelementen 10 und 20 er­zeugen. Auf diese einfache Weise sind beliebig biele Schlauchelemente miteinander verbindbar, können gemeinsam gefüllt oder auch über (in der Zeichnung nicht dargestellte) bekannte Einlaß- oder Auslaßstutzen an den Schlauchelementen entleert und/oder belüftet werden.After the coupling elements have been screwed together, the beads 10A and 20A slowly form when the tube elements are filled, with the result that the adjacent beads abut one another and produce a substantially annular sealing surface 30 between the adjacent tube elements 10 and 20. In this simple manner, any number of hose elements can be connected to one another, can be filled together, or can also be emptied and / or ventilated via known inlet or outlet ports on the hose elements (not shown in the drawing).

Die Einsatzbereiche dieser beschriebenen Barriere sind sehr vielfältig: Beispielsweise kann sie als Damm bei Überschwemmungen verwendet werden, wobei ganz einfach ihr Innenraum mit Wasser gefüllt wird. Die Schlauch­elemente können aber auch einzeln oder in Verbindung miteinander zu Auf­nahme von unerwünschten Flüssigkeiten, beispielsweise bei Leckagen oder Freisetzung von Flüssigkeiten in chemischen Betrieben eingesetzt werden, wo sie sozusagen zur Zwischenlagerung dieser unerwünschten Flüssigkeiten dienen, bis diese dann ordnungsgemäß beseitigt bzw. entsorgt werden können.The areas of application of this barrier described are very diverse: for example, it can be used as a dam in the event of flooding, and its interior is simply filled with water. The hose elements can, however, also be used individually or in connection with one another to absorb undesired liquids, for example in the event of leaks or release of liquids in chemical plants, where they serve, so to speak, for the intermediate storage of these undesired liquids until they can then be properly disposed of or disposed of.

Von besonderem Vorteil hierbei ist, daß die Schlauchelemente als solche nur einen minimalen Lager- und Transportraum beanspruchen, so daß sie ähnlich und mit vergleichbaren Geräten wie Feuerwehrlösch-Schläuche auf­bewahrt und zum jeweiligen Eisatzort transportiert werden können. Ihre "Kompatibilität" hinsichtlich der Anschlüsse (Kupplungselemente) mit den üblichen Feuerwehrlösch-Schläuchen gewährleistet auch eine schnelle Be­füllung bzw. ein schnelles Abpumpen des Inhaltes, je nach Einsatz- und Verwendungszweck.It is particularly advantageous here that the hose elements as such only occupy a minimal storage and transport space, so that they can be stored in a similar manner and with comparable devices such as fire-fighting hose and transported to the respective ice site. Their "compatibility" with regard to the connections (coupling elements) with the usual fire-fighting hoses also ensures quick filling or rapid pumping out of the contents, depending on the purpose of use.
