Abstract

Un corps creux (1) générateur de pression qui sert à assurer l'approvisionnement en énergie d'installations de canalisations comprend un matériau élastique ayant une section transversale quelconque qui est comprimé par un véhicule qui passe sur le revêtement d'une route. L'air contenu dans le corps creux est comprimé à travers une soupape (2) et l'air extérieur pénètre dans le corps creux (1) à travers une deuxième soupape, lui redonnant sa forme de départ. La pression générée lors de la compression du corps creux est conduite à travers la soupape (2) jusqu'à un réservoir sous pression (4) et/ou à un vérin pneumatique (5), où elle peut être mise à profit.A pressure-generating hollow body (1) for supplying energy to pipeline installations comprises an elastic material having any cross-section which is compressed by a vehicle passing over the surface of a road. The air contained in the hollow body is compressed through a valve (2) and the outside air enters the hollow body (1) through a second valve, giving it back its original shape. The pressure generated during the compression of the hollow body is conducted through the valve (2) to a pressure tank (4) and / or to a pneumatic cylinder (5), where it can be used.

Description

Druck erzeugender Hohlkörper Pressure generating hollow body
Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen oder mehrere Druck erzeu¬ gende Hohlkörper zur Energieversorgung für Einrichtungen im Bereich von Kanalisationsanlagen.The invention relates to one or more pressure-generating hollow bodies for energy supply for facilities in the area of sewage systems.
Druck erzeugende Hohlkörper sind seit einer Vielzahl von Jahren bekannt und werden insbesondere zum gelegentlichen Aufpumpen von Schläuchen, Luftmatrazen, Schlauchbooten oder dergleichen verwendet. Diese Geräte werden in der Regel nicht automatisch sondern manuell von einer Person angewandt. Im Straßenbereich jedoch werden Gummischlauche eingesetzt, um einfache Zählvorgän¬ ge durchzuführen. Der Einsatz von Einrichtungen im Bereich von Kanalisationsanlagen, zum Beispiel Meßgeräten oder Pumpen für hochliegende Spülbehälter, erfordert entweder einen aufwendigen Stromanschluß oder die Unterbringung einer Batterie bzw. Akku.Pressure-generating hollow bodies have been known for a large number of years and are used in particular for occasionally inflating tubes, air mattresses, inflatable boats or the like. These devices are usually not used automatically, but manually by one person. In the street area, however, rubber hoses are used to carry out simple counting processes. The use of facilities in the area of sewage systems, for example measuring devices or pumps for high-lying rinsing tanks, requires either a complex power connection or the accommodation of a battery.
Ein Nachteil der bisher verwendeten Energieversorgung für Einrichtungen in Kanalisationsanlagen ist darin zu sehen, daß es sehr aufwendig und teuer ist, für kleinere Einrichtungen entweder Batterien oder Akkus vorzuhalten oder einen eigenen Stromanschluß zu installieren.A disadvantage of the energy supply used previously for facilities in sewage systems is that it is very complex and expensive to either hold batteries or accumulators for smaller facilities or to install a separate power connection.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, die vorstehend genannten Nachteile zur Energieversorgung für Einrichtungen im Bereich von Kanalisationsanlagen zu beseitigen und eine Energie¬ quelle zu erschließen, die durch den Straßenverkehr fast überall kostenlos zur Verfügung steht.The invention is based on the object of eliminating the disadvantages mentioned above for supplying energy to facilities in the area of sewerage systems and to develop an energy source which is available almost everywhere free of charge due to road traffic.
Erreicht ist dieses Ziel dadurch, daß Druck erzeugende Hohlkör- per aus einem elastischen Material beliebigen Querschnittes auf der Fahrbahndecke einer Straße befestigt werden, die durch das Darüberfahren eines Fahrzeuges zusammengepreßt werden und dessen Druck energetisch genutzt wird.This goal is achieved in that pressure-generating hollow bodies are fastened by an elastic material of any cross-section to the road surface of a road, which are pressed together by driving over a vehicle and the pressure of which is used for energy.
In der Zeichnung ist der Erfindungsgegenstand in einem Ausfüh- rungsbeispiel schematisch dargestellt.The subject matter of the invention is shown schematically in an exemplary embodiment in the drawing.
Die Druck erzeugenden Hohlkörper 1, in der Regel Schläuche, bestehen aus einem elastischen Material mit beliebigem Quer¬ schnitt. Die Schläuche werden so auf die Fahrbahn verlegt und befestigt, daß sie von vorbeifahrenden Fahrzeugen überfahren werden müssen. Diese üben kurzfristig einen Druck auf Sie aus, der dann über ein Ventil 2 je Schlauch in ein Druckbehälter 4 und/oder einen Druckzylinder 5 abgeleitet und somit einer Nutzung zugeführt wird. Diese Nutzung kann beispielsweise darin bestehen, daß die Kolbenstange bei dessen Bewegung in Pfeilrich¬ tung ein Aggregat einer Kanalisationsanlage bewegt, wobei die Im dem Druckraum des Druckzylinders abgewandten Raum befindliche Luft im Sinne des durchgezogenen Pfeiles über das Ventil 6 aus dem Zylinder strömt. Kurz bevor der Kolben 7 den druckbehälter- fernen Anschlag erreicht, überdeckt er den Auslaß zum Ventil 6, bei Erreichen des Anschlages gibt er den Anschluß frei, so daß über das Ventil 6 im Sinne des strichlierten Pfeils ein Druck¬ ausgleich über das Ventil 6 erfolgt. Dies ermöglicht es, über eine externe Kraft den Kolben 7 gemäß strichliertem Pfeil wieder in seine Ausgangslage zu bewegen. Durch die Querschnittsgröße und die Anzahl der Schläuche kann je nach durchschnittlichem Verkehrsaufkommen der Druck den jeweiligen Erfordernissen angepaßt werden. Jeder Schlauch erhöht mit jedem Zusammendrücken den Druck im Druckbehälter um eine gewisse Größe. Danach strömt infolge der Rückspannkraft des Schlauches 1 durch ein weiteres Ventil 3 Luft in den Schlauch nach, der wieder seine Ausgangs¬ form einnimmt. Der Hohlkörper ist vorteilhaft mit einer frostsi- cheren Flüssigkeit gefüllt.The pressure-generating hollow bodies 1, as a rule hoses, consist of an elastic material with any cross-section. The hoses are laid and fastened on the road in such a way that passing vehicles have to drive over them. These briefly exert pressure on you, which is then discharged via a valve 2 per hose into a pressure vessel 4 and / or a pressure cylinder 5 and is thus used. This use can consist, for example, of the piston rod moving an aggregate of a sewerage system when it moves in the direction of the arrow, the air in the space facing away from the pressure cylinder of the pressure cylinder flowing out of the cylinder via the valve 6 in the direction of the solid arrow. Shortly before the piston 7 reaches the stop remote from the pressure vessel, it covers the outlet to the valve 6, when the stop is reached it releases the connection, so that a pressure compensation via the valve 6 takes place via the valve 6 in the sense of the dashed arrow . This makes it possible to move the piston 7 back into its starting position according to the dashed arrow using an external force. Due to the cross-sectional size and the number of hoses, the pressure can be adapted to the respective requirements, depending on the average traffic volume. Each hose increases the pressure in the pressure vessel by a certain amount with each compression. Thereafter, due to the restoring force of the hose 1, air flows into the hose through a further valve 3, which returns to its original shape. The hollow body is advantageous with a frost-proof liquid filled.
Die erfindungsgemäße Einrichtung zur Energieversorgung bereitet keine Schwierigkeiten. Durch dieses Verfahren läßt sich mit geringem Aufwand Energie gewinnen, die vielfach eingesetzt werden kann, zum Beispiel zur Füllung eines Druckbehälters zwecks Entnahme von Spülwasser aus dem Schmutzwasserabfluß im Kanalnetz, was bisher in dieser Regelmäßigkeit nur durch einen aufwendigen Stromanschluß möglich war. Somit wird eine sehr wirtschaftliche Kanalreinigung erst möglich. The device for energy supply according to the invention presents no difficulties. With this method, energy can be obtained with little effort, which can be used in many ways, for example for filling a pressure vessel for the removal of rinsing water from the sewage drain in the sewer network, which was previously only possible with a complex power connection. This makes a very economical sewer cleaning possible.
