Storage device with a storage plane (246) having a collecting volume, characterised in that the storage plane is formed by a number of self-supporting collecting troughs (238) which are rectangular in outline, lie next to one another in the manner of a tile pattern and are interconnected in a liquid-tight manner. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Lager mit einem Auffangvolumen für Flüssigkeit.The invention relates to a bearing with a collection volume for liquid.

Durch das Auffangvolumen eines solchen Lagers soll verhindert werden, daß Leckflüssigkeit aus eingelagerten Flüssigkeitsbehältern unkontrolliert in die Umwelt gelangt.The collection volume of such a store is intended to prevent leakage liquid from stored liquid containers from entering the environment in an uncontrolled manner.

In dem deutschen Gebrauchsmuster G 85 35 954 wird ein Lagercontainer beschrieben, bei dem das Auffangvolumen durch eine in den Container integrierte, durch einen Gitterrost abgedeckte Auffangwanne gebildet wird. Bei diesem Lagercontainer kann jedoch die Gefahr einer Verseuchung des Bodens oder des Grundwassers nicht ausgeschlossen werden, wenn beispielsweise die Wand eines eingelagerten Fasses durch die Gabel eines Gabelstaplers oder dergleichen durchstoßen wird und der Inhalt des Fasses infolge des statischen Flüssigkeitsdruckes strahlförmig austritt und über den Rand der Auffangwanne hinausspritzt.The German utility model G 85 35 954 describes a storage container in which the collecting volume is formed by a collecting trough integrated into the container and covered by a grating. With this storage container, however, the risk of contamination of the ground or groundwater cannot be ruled out if, for example, the wall of a stored barrel is pierced by a fork from a forklift or the like and the contents of the barrel emerge in a jet as a result of the static liquid pressure and over the edge of the Splash pan spouts out.

In der Druckschrift CH-A-595 261 wird ein Umschlagplatz für umweltgefährdende Flüssigkeiten beschrieben, der durch mehrere in den Boden eingelassene und flüssigkeitsdicht aneinandergrenzende Betonwannen gebildet wird, die jeweils durch einen Gitterrost abgedeckt sind. Die mittlere Betonwanne ist durch Schienenfahrzeuge wie beispielsweise Zisternenwagen befahrbar. Wenn beim Befüllen oder Entleeren der Zisternenwagen Flüssigkeit verschüttet wird, so kann diese in den angrenzenden Auffangwannen aufgefangen werden. Für die Herstellung eines solchen Umschlagplatzes mit in den Boden eingelassenen Auffangwannen sind jedoch aufwendige bauliche Malnahmen erforderlich.In the publication CH-A-595 261, a transhipment point for environmentally hazardous liquids is described, which is formed by a plurality of concrete troughs embedded in the floor and adjoining one another in a liquid-tight manner, each of which is covered by a grating. The middle concrete trough is accessible by rail vehicles such as cistern cars. If liquid is spilled when filling or emptying the cistern wagon, it can be collected in the adjacent collecting trays. However, complex constructional measures are required to produce such a transhipment point with sumps embedded in the floor.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Lager zu schaffen, das sich einfach installieren läßt und es dennoch gestattet, Leckflüssigkeit und/oder Löschwasser zuverlässig aufzufangen.The invention has for its object to provide a camp that is easy to install and still allows leakage and / or water to reliably collect.

Erfindungsgemäße Lösungen dieser Aufgabe sind in den unabhängigen Ansprüchen 1 und 4 angegeben.Solutions to this problem according to the invention are specified in independent claims 1 and 4.

Erfindungsgemäß ist die Lagerebene des Lagers so gestaltet, daß sie ein großflächiges zusammenhängendes Auffangvolumen bildet.According to the storage level of the storage facility is designed so that it forms a large, continuous collection volume.

Gemäß Anspruch 1 besteht die Lagerebene aus einer Vielzahl in Reihen nebeneinander und hintereinander angeordneter rechteckiger Auffangwannen, die durch umgekehrt U-förmige, die aufgekanteten Ränder der Auffangwannen übergreifende Profile flüssigkeitsdicht miteinander verbunden sind.According to claim 1, the storage level consists of a plurality of rows of side-by-side and one behind the other rectangular collecting troughs, which are liquid-tightly connected to one another by reversely U-shaped profiles that cross the folded edges of the collecting troughs.

Flexible und einfach zu handhabende Systeme zur flüssigkeitsdichten Verbindung der Auffangwannen sind in den Unteransprüchen 2 und 3 angegeben.Flexible and easy-to-use systems for the liquid-tight connection of the collecting trays are specified in subclaims 2 and 3.

Gemäß den Anspruch 4 wird die Lagerebene durch Trapezbleche gebildet. Auf diese Weise wird eine selbsttragende Konstruktion erreicht. Das Auffangvolumen wird durch die einzelnen Rinnen der Trapezbleche gebildet, die an den Enden durch eingeschweißte Stirnwände oder dergleichen flüssigkeitsdicht verschlossen sind. Wahlweise können die Rinnen auch an wenigstens einem Ende durch eine Sammelrinne miteinander verbunden sein. Durch auf die Trapezbleche aufgelegte Gitter- oder Lattenroste kann in üblicher Weise ein begehbarer oder befahrbarer Oberflächenbelag gebildet werden.According to claim 4, the storage level is formed by trapezoidal sheets. In this way, a self-supporting construction is achieved. The collecting volume is formed by the individual grooves of the trapezoidal sheets, which are sealed liquid-tight at the ends by welded end walls or the like. Optionally, the channels can also be connected to one another at least at one end by a collecting channel. Grid or slatted frames placed on the trapezoidal sheets can be used to form a surface covering that can be walked on or driven over in the usual way.

Die erfindungsgemäßen Lagerebenenkonstruktionen können gemäß Anspruch 5 auch nach Art einer Lagerbühne aufgeständert werden. Bei der Lagerebenenkonstruktionen gemäß Anspruch 4 kann die Lagerebene unmittelbar durch über die Stützen der Lagerbühne verlaufende Pfetten abgestützt werden. Bei einer durch einzelne Auffangwannen gebildeten Lagerebene erfolgt die Abstützung durch quer zu den Pfetten verlaufende Traversen.The storage level constructions according to the invention can also be erected according to claim 5 in the manner of a storage platform. In the storage level construction according to claim 4, the storage level can be supported directly by purlins running over the supports of the storage platform. In the case of a storage level formed by individual collecting troughs, the support is provided by crossbeams running transversely to the purlins.

Die Gestaltung des erfindungsgemäßen Lagers als Lagerbühne ermöglicht eine effektive Nutzung des vorhandenen Lagerraumes und bietet zugleich eine bequeme Möglichkeit, die Unterseite des Leck-Auffangvolumens zu überprüfen, so daß Korrosionsschäden ggf. frühzeitig festgestellt und vorbeugend behandelt werden können.The design of the bearing according to the invention as a mezzanine enables effective use of the existing storage space and at the same time offers a convenient possibility of checking the underside of the leakage collection volume, so that corrosion damage can be identified early and possibly treated preventively.

Wenn eine Nutzung des Raumes unter der Lagerbühne als zusätzlicher Lagerraum nicht gewünscht wird oder wenn keine ausreichende Hallenhöhe zur Verfügung steht, können die Pfeiler der Lagerbühne auch derart gekürzt werden, daß unterhalb der Lagerbühne lediglich ein niedriger "Kriechkeller" gebildet wird, der die Durchführung von Wartungs- und Reparaturarbeiten gestattet.If the use of the space under the mezzanine as an additional storage space is not desired or if there is not enough hall height available, the pillars of the mezzanine can also be shortened in this way become that only a low "crawl space" is formed below the warehouse, which allows the performance of maintenance and repair work.

In den Boden der Lagerbühne können Schaugläser eingearbeitet sein, so daß sich bereits von unten aus bequem feststellen läßt, ob einer der eingelagerten Behälter ein Leck aufweist und Flüssigkeit ausgelaufen ist. Wahlweise kann die Lagerebene auch ein geringfügiges Gefälle aufweisen und so gestaltet sein, daß die auslaufende Leckflüssigkeit an einer Stelle zusammenläuft, an der das Schauglas oder ein geeigneter Flüssigkeitsmelder angeordnet ist.Sight glasses can be incorporated into the floor of the mezzanine, so that it can be easily determined from below whether one of the stored containers has a leak and liquid has leaked out. Optionally, the storage level can also have a slight slope and be designed so that the leaking leakage runs together at a point at which the sight glass or a suitable liquid detector is arranged.

Im folgenden werden bevorzugte Ausführungsbeispiele der Erfindung anhand der Zeichnungen näher erläutert.Preferred exemplary embodiments of the invention are explained in more detail below with reference to the drawings.

Figur 1 zeigt eine Lagerbühne 210 mit einer Anzahl senkrechter Pfeiler 212, die an den oben Enden durch Pfetten 214 miteinander verbunden sind und eine über eine Treppe 16 zugängliche und durch ein Geländer 218 gesicherte Lagerebene 220 abstützen. Die Lagerebene 220 wird ihrerseits durch unmittelbar auf die Pfetten 214 aufgelegte Trapezbleche 222 gebildet, deren Profil quer zur Längsrichtung der Pfetten verläuft. Die durch die Trapezbleche 222 gebildeten Profilrinnen 224 werden an den Enden durch angeschweißte Stirnwände 226 flüssigkeitsdicht verschlossen und bilden somit zusammen ein relativ großes Auffangvolumen für Leckflüssigkeit. Die Stirnwände 226 stehen nach oben etwas über die hochstehenden Profilbereiche der Trapezbleche 222 über, so daß auch von den hochstehenden Profilbereichen keine Leckflüssigkeit am Rand der Lagerebene herabtropfen kann. Die Stirnwände 226 dienen zugleich zur Einfassung und Lagesicherung von auf die Trapezbleche aufgelegten Gitterrosten 228, die auf der Lagerebene 220 einen begehbaren und befahrbaren, jedoch für Leckflüssigkeit durchlässigen Oberflächenbelag bilden.FIG. 1 shows a storage platform 210 with a number of vertical pillars 212 which are connected to one another at the upper ends by purlins 214 and support a storage level 220 which is accessible via a staircase 16 and secured by a railing 218. The bearing plane 220 is in turn formed by trapezoidal sheets 222 placed directly on the purlins 214, the profile of which extends transversely to the longitudinal direction of the purlins. The profile channels 224 formed by the trapezoidal sheets 222 are closed at the ends by welded end walls 226 in a liquid-tight manner and thus together form a relatively large collecting volume for leakage liquid. The end walls 226 protrude slightly above the upstanding profile areas of the trapezoidal sheets 222, so that no leakage liquid can drip off the edge of the bearing plane from the upstanding profile areas. The end walls 226 also serve to enclose and secure the position of gratings 228 placed on the trapezoidal sheets, which form a walkable and passable surface covering on the bearing level 220, but which is permeable to leakage liquid.

Der Oberflächenbelag kann wahlweise auch durch Riffelbleche, Spanplatten oder dergleichen gebildet werden, sofern durch ein hinreichend dichtes Netz von Fugen oder Durchbrüchen oder durch eine umlaufende Sammelrinne sichergestellt ist, daß die aus den eingelagerten Behältern auslaufende Flüssigkeit in das durch die Profilrinnen 224 gebildete Auffangvolumen abfließen kann.The surface covering can optionally be formed by checker plates, chipboard or the like, provided that a sufficiently dense network of joints or openings or a circumferential collecting channel ensures that the liquid escaping from the stored containers can flow into the collecting volume formed by the profile channels 224 .

Figur 2 zeigt ein Beispiel einer aus einzelnen Auffangwannen 238 bestehenden Lagerebene 246 für eine Lagerbühne oder ein ebenerdiges Lager. Die einzelnen Auffangwannen 238 werden durch an den Rändern 248 aufgekantete Bleche gebildet. Aufgrund der Randaurfkantungen 248 weisen die Auffangwannen eine relativ hohe Eigensteifigkeit auf, so daß sie ähnlich den Trapezblechen gemäß Figur 1 unmittelbar auf die Pfetten 214 der Lagerbühne aufgelegt werden können. Die Auffangwannen werden nach Art eines Fliesenmusters verlegt, so daß sie mit ihren aufgekanteten Rändern unmittelbar aneinanderstoßen. Die Stoßfugen sind durch Schienen 250 mit einem umgekehrt-U-förmigen Profil abgedeckt. Die oberen Oberflächen der Schienen 250 fluchten mit den oberen Oberflächen von Gitterrosten 252,die sich ebenso wie die Schienen 250 auf in die Auffangwannen eingeschweißten Traversen 254 abstützen. Durch die Gitterroste 252 und die Schienen 250 wird somit eine durchgehende begehbare Fläche gebildet.FIG. 2 shows an example of a storage level 246 consisting of individual collecting trays 238 for a mezzanine or a ground-level storage. The individual drip pans 238 are formed by sheets folded up at the edges 248. Because of the edge surfacing edges 248, the collecting trays have a relatively high inherent rigidity, so that they can be placed directly on the purlins 214 of the mezzanine platform, similar to the trapezoidal sheets according to FIG. The drip pans are laid out in the manner of a tile pattern, so that their edged edges meet directly. The butt joints are covered by rails 250 with an inverted U-shaped profile. The top surfaces of the Rails 250 are aligned with the upper surfaces of gratings 252 which, like the rails 250, are supported on cross members 254 welded into the collecting troughs. A continuous walk-on surface is thus formed by the gratings 252 and the rails 250.

Das System zur Abdeckung der Fugen zwischen den Auffangwannen ist im einzelnen in Figuren 3 und 4 dargestellt.The system for covering the joints between the collecting troughs is shown in detail in FIGS. 3 and 4.

In Figur 3 sind zwei Kreuzstücke 310 erkennbar, die durch vier am kreuzungspunkt miteinander verschweißte umgekehrt U-förmige Profilschienen 312 gebildet werden. Jedes der kreuzstücke 310 wird so auf die aneinanderstoßenden Ecken von vier rechteckigen, nach Art eines Fliesenmusters verlegten flachen Auffangwannen aufgelegt, daß die Schenkel 312 die parallel verlaufenden Ränder der Auffangwannen übergreifen. Auf diese Weise wird durch das Kreuzstück der Zwischenraum zwischen den vier Auffangwannen abgedeckt. Zwischen den einzelnen kreuzstücken 310 sind Verbindungsstücke 314,316 angeordnet, die an die Länge bzw. Breite der einzelnen Auffangwannen angepafft sind und jeweils die in einer Linie ausgerichteten Schenkel 312 zweier benachbarter Kreuzstücke übergreifen. Die Kreuzstücke 310 und die Verbindungsstücke 314,316 bilden somit zusammen eine Gitterkonstruktion, durch die die Stoßfugen zwischen den Auffangwannen aufgrund der Überlappung zwischen den Verbindungsstücken 314,316 und den Schenkeln 312 der Kreuzstücke vollständig abgedeckt werden, so daß keine Leckflüssigkeit in die Stoßfugen eindringen kann.In Figure 3, two cross pieces 310 can be seen, which are formed by four inverted U-shaped profile rails 312 welded together at the point of intersection. Each of the cross pieces 310 is placed on the abutting corners of four rectangular flat collecting trays laid in the manner of a tile pattern in such a way that the legs 312 overlap the parallel edges of the collecting trays. In this way, the space between the four sumps is covered by the cross piece. Between the individual cross pieces 310 there are connecting pieces 314, 316, which are fitted to the length or width of the individual collecting troughs and each overlap the legs 312 of two adjacent cross pieces aligned in a line. The cross pieces 310 and the connecting pieces 314, 316 thus together form a lattice construction, through which the butt joints between the collecting trays are completely covered due to the overlap between the connecting pieces 314, 316 and the legs 312 of the cross pieces, so that no leakage liquid can penetrate into the butt joints.

Der Innenquerschnitt der Verbindungsstücke 314,316 stimmt annähernd mit dem Außenquerschnitt der Schenkel 312 überein, so daß die Verbindungsstücke die Schenkel der Kreuzstücke mit geringem Spiel übergreifen. In einer abgewandelten Ausführungsform können jedoch auch die Verbindungsstücke unmittelbar auf die Ränder der Auffanbwannen aufgelegt sein, während die Schenkel der Kreuzstücke die Enden der Verbindungsstücke übergreifen.The inner cross section of the connecting pieces 314, 316 approximately matches the outer cross section of the legs 312, so that the connecting pieces overlap the legs of the cross pieces with little play. In a modified embodiment, however, the connecting pieces can also be placed directly on the edges of the collecting troughs, while the legs of the cross pieces overlap the ends of the connecting pieces.

An den Rändern der Lagerfläche sind anstelle der Kreuzstücke 310 Endstücke 318 angeordnet, deren Profil dem Profil der Schenkel 317 der Kreuzstücke entspricht und die von den Enden der Verbindungsstücke 314 bzw. 316 übergriffen werden.At the edges of the bearing surface instead of the cross pieces 310 end pieces 318 are arranged, the profile of which is the profile of the legs 317 Cross pieces corresponds and which are overlapped by the ends of the connecting pieces 314 and 316.

Die Verbindungsstücke 314,316 werden in ihrem Mittelteil jeweils durch zwei ineinandergeschachtelte U-Profile gebildet, von denen das innere Profil mit dem Profil des Schenkels 312 und der Endstücke 318 übereinstimmt und als Distanzstück 320 den Zwischenraum zwischen den Enden der angrenzenden Schenkel 312 bzw. Endstücke 318 ausfüllt. Auf diese Weise wird ein stabiler Verband geschaffen, der auch beim Befahren oder Begehen der Lagerfläche nicht verrutscht. Auf die Kreuzstücke 310 ist jeweils am Kreuzungspunkt ein quadratisches Füllstück 322 aufgeschweißt, das die Lücke zwischen den vier am Kreüzungspunkt zusammenlaufenden Verbindungsstücken 314,316 ausfüllt.The connecting pieces 314, 316 are formed in their middle part by two nested U-profiles, of which the inner profile matches the profile of the leg 312 and the end pieces 318 and, as a spacer 320, fills the space between the ends of the adjacent legs 312 and end pieces 318 . In this way, a stable bandage is created, which does not slip even when driving or walking on the storage area. A square filler 322, which fills the gap between the four connecting pieces 314, 316 converging at the intersection, is welded onto the cross pieces 310 at the intersection.

Figur 4 zeigt zwei Auffangwannen 238, die jeweils durch einen auf Trägern 254 aufliegenden Gitterrost 252 abgedeckt sind. Die Seitenwände 248 der Auffangwannen liegen parallel nebeneinander, und die zwischen ihnen gebildete Stoßfuge 332 ist durch eines der Verbindungsstücke 314 und das in dieses eingeschweißte Distanzstück 320 abgedeckt. Die obere Oberfläche der Gitterroste 252 fluchtet mit den oberen Oberflächen des Distanzstücks 314 und des in Figur 4 nicht erkennbaren Füllstücks 322 so daß insgesamt eine durchgehende begehbare und befährbare Lagerfläche gebildet wird. Die Verbindungsstücke 314,316 und die Schenkel 312 der Kreuzstücke stützen sich mit ihren unteren Rändern auf den Trägern 254 für die Gitterroste 252 ab, so daß die oberen Ränder der Seitenwände 248 der aus Blech hergestellten Auffangwannen auch bei Belastung der Kreuzstücke und der Verbindungsstücke nicht verbogen werden.FIG. 4 shows two collecting troughs 238, each of which is covered by a grating 252 resting on supports 254. The side walls 248 of the collecting troughs lie parallel next to one another, and the butt joint 332 formed between them is covered by one of the connecting pieces 314 and the spacer 320 welded into this. The upper surface of the gratings 252 is flush with the upper surfaces of the spacer 314 and the filler 322, which cannot be seen in FIG. 4, so that overall a continuous walkable and passable storage area is formed. The connecting pieces 314, 316 and the legs 312 of the cross pieces are supported with their lower edges on the supports 254 for the gratings 252, so that the upper edges of the side walls 248 of the collecting trays made of sheet metal are not bent even when the cross pieces and the connecting pieces are loaded.

  1. Storage device with a storage level (246) having a collecting volume and consisting of a plurality of adjacent self-supporting collecting trays (238), which are connected to one another such that they are sealed with respect to liquid, and are covered by a grating (252) in each case, characterised in that
    - the collecting trays (238) have a square outline and are arranged in the manner of a tile pattern, in a plurality of rows adjacent one another and behind one another;
    - the gratings (252) are supported on inner projections or traverses of the collecting trays;
    - the gaps (232) at the joint between the adjacent collecting trays are covered by rails (250; 312 - 318) which engage with a profile in the form of a reversed U over the edges (248) of the collecting trays and, together with the gratings (252), form a continuous level surface; and
    - the rails (312, 314, 316, 318) are formed of separate cross-shaped pieces (310) and connection pieces (314, 316), and the connection pieces (314, 316) overlap the arms (312), which are arranged in line with one another, of two adjacent cross-shaped pieces (310) in each case.
  2. Storage device according to Claim 1, characterised in that the connection pieces (314, 316) are, in each case, formed in their central part by two U-shaped profiles nested within one another, of which one (320) has a cross-sectional shape that corresponds to the cross-sectional shape of the arm (312) of the cross-shaped pieces (310), and acts as a spacer piece to fill the gap between the arms (312) of the cross-shaped pieces.
  3. Storage device according to either Claim 1 or Claim 2, characterised in that the connection pieces (314, 316) have, in their end areas, an internal cross-section that is somewhat larger than the external cross-section of the arms (312) of the cross-shaped pieces and in that the connection pieces (314, 316) engage from above over the arms (312) of the cross-shaped pieces.
  4. Storage device with a storage level (220) having a collecting volume for fluid, characterised in that the storage level is formed of a sheet (222) with trapezoidal corrugations or of a plurality of sheets with trapezoidal corrugations, and in that the channel-shaped sunken profiled areas (224) of the sheet with trapezoidal corrugations are closed off at the ends by front end walls (226) which project upwards over the raised profiled areas of the sheet with trapezoidal corrugations, or by collecting channels.
  5. Storage device according to any one of the preceding claims, characterised in that the storage device has the construction of a storage platform (210, 234) which is known per se and has a storage level (220, 246) supported on columns (212).
  6. Storage device according to Claim 5, characterised in that a leak-control device, for example an eyeglass integral with the floor, is disposed in the collecting volume of the storage level (220), advantageously at the deepest point.
