Definitions

  • the invention relates to a component for producing, in particular, structural contours from rod-shaped parts and connection nodes for connecting these parts.
  • the knot elements can be designed as ball knots or disk knots.
  • Ball knots made of metal are known, for example, which can have up to 18 rod connections in the form of threaded holes distributed over their circumference. Correspondingly designed screw connections are provided at the rod ends.
  • the rods Due to the axial screw connections, the rods can only absorb and transmit torsional forces to a very limited extent.
  • the outer skin - e.g. B. in a roof structure - facing sides can be adapted according to the course of the planking or the like by deburring or attachment parts, which means an additional effort.
  • a component which consists of two rod-shaped individual elements which are arranged parallel to one another and which can be connected at an outer longitudinal edge by means of a folding hinge oriented with its axis parallel to the long sides of the individual elements is known from GB-A-2 244 536.
  • the component can only be connected to neighboring elements by means of a node element in predetermined angular arrangements.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a component of the type mentioned at the outset which can be connected to neighboring elements in virtually any angular arrangement, and this should also be possible with universally prefabricated components. In addition, there should be a stable node connection.
  • the invention proposes in particular that the component has at least one front end of both individual elements perpendicular to their longitudinal axes oriented connection hinges for connecting to identical or other components and that the extensions of the respective hinge axes outside the individual elements in a common axis center in the connection node to cut.
  • knot connections are movable in this construction according to the invention, so that any connection angle between adjacent components (rods) can be set within predetermined limits.
  • Prefabricated universal components can thus be used for practically all applications and edge structures of any body can be reproduced and non-positively connected at the corners of the body.
  • hinge connections provided result in a torsionally stable connection in the node area, so that in many cases otherwise necessary support measures can be omitted.
  • bevels or the like are provided at the ends of the individual elements, adjacent to the connection hinges, to the maximally provided freedom of movement or to the respective connection angle to adjacent components.
  • bevels form the appropriate free space for the intended adjustment angle in order to adjoin adjacent, interconnected components or individual elements, for. B. from an extended position to an angled position.
  • connection hinges Run the ends of the individual elements beveled to the connection hinges at an acute angle of z. B. 20 °, there is a movement of about 140 ° in one plane and based on the stretched position.
  • the individual elements can also be moved around their folding hinge axis for spherical surface structures with a freedom of movement of up to 90 ° per individual element around the folding hinge axis.
  • the side surface of the individual elements facing away from the folding hinge on a longitudinal edge facing away from the folding hinge is adjoined by a fastening side and / or support side on the long side and preferably perpendicular to the side surface, preferably for planking or the like.
  • the fastening or support side for the planking or the like follows a movement of the individual elements about their folding hinge and connecting hinge axes, whereby it is always aligned with the body boundary surface. As a result, no burrs or the like which are adapted to the respective position of the component and which cause a corresponding outlay are required.
  • Fig. 1 shows seven components 1 to 1 f according to the invention, which are connected at their ends to form a network structure. They form an edge structure and each delimit different surface sections.
  • the two components 1 a and 1 b form side edges of a hexagon
  • the components 1 b and 1 c form two sides of a square
  • the components 1 d and 1 e and 1 e and 1 f delimit a triangle
  • Pages 1, 1 c and 1 f form three sides of a pentagon.
  • Each of the components 1 to 1 f consists of two rod-shaped individual elements 2 arranged parallel to one another (cf. also FIGS. 2 to 13), which in the exemplary embodiment can consist of rods with a rectangular cross section, which are attached to an outer longitudinal edge with the aid of a folding hinge 4 (see FIGS. 3 and 4) can be connected. As a result, these individual elements can be placed against one another or folded apart about the folding hinge axis with their longitudinal side faces 5 facing each other.
  • connection hinges 7 At the ends 6 of the individual elements 2 there are connection hinges 7, the axes of which are oriented at right angles to that of the folding hinge 4.
  • Fig. 1 for the sake of simplicity, only the hinge axes 4 a and 7 a of the folding hinges 4 and the connecting hinges 7 are shown.
  • the two individual elements 2 can optionally be connected to one another on adjacent outer longitudinal edges 8 or 9 by means of folding hinges 4 in order to be able to form positive or negative spatial shapes.
  • connection node 10 is formed in the connection area, which also forms a geometrical corner point of the space frame construction.
  • this connection node the extensions of the respective hinge axes intersect in a common axis center 11.
  • this axis center 11 lies outside of the individual elements 2 in the "material-free space" in order to achieve the intended possibility of movement of the components 1.
  • the support sides and longitudinal side surfaces 5 are arranged at right angles, the surfaces of a field enclosed by components run flush with the support or fastening sides 12.
  • assignments deviating from a right angle are provided between the longitudinal side surfaces 5 and the support sides 12 are, for example if the planking 13 itself is spherically shaped. It is only essential here that the coupling of the components according to the invention provides for a common alignment of the individual elements delimiting a field.
  • the individual elements 2 of a component 1 can also be decoupled from their folding hinge connections. As a result, a significantly expanded area of application of the component 1 according to the invention is possible.
  • connection hinges 7 can be varied and / or the bevels 14 running to the connection hinges 7 can be designed accordingly.
  • the bevels 14 are designed such that the components connected to one another or their individual elements 2 can be pivoted up to 135 ° in one plane, starting from the stretched position, as shown in dashed lines.
  • the folding hinges 4 can be attached either to the two outer longitudinal edges 8 or 9 of the inner longitudinal side surfaces 5. As a result, both concave and convex shaped fields of a network structure can be realized.
  • FIGS. 2 to 4 The practical design of the folding hinges 4 and the connecting hinges 7 can be seen in FIGS. 2 to 4 and in particular also in FIGS. 5 to 13.
  • axially aligned eyelet parts 15 are provided at least at the end regions of the individual elements 2 with a corresponding length and in intermediate regions, which are arranged here in pairs at a distance from each other to engage a counter-eyelet part of the second individual element provided to form a component .
  • the pairs of eyelets are each offset from one another by the width of an eyelet part 15 with respect to a central plane in the middle of the longitudinal extent of the individual elements.
  • the eyelet parts 15 are arranged in the region of chamfers 17 of the longitudinal edges 8, 9, so that the folding hinge axis 4 a lie in the plane of the adjacent side surface.
  • connection hinges 7 at the ends of the individual elements 2, tab-shaped eyelet parts 16 are provided, which are arranged so that their axes are perpendicular to that of the folding hinge 4 and both axes lie in one plane. This can be seen, for example, in FIGS. 8 to 10.
  • the eyelet parts 16 of the connection hinges 7 are laterally offset from one another at the two ends 6 of an individual element 2.
  • eyelet parts 15 and 16 arranged in pairs, correspondingly more eyelet parts arranged next to one another can be provided, even with higher loads, or only one single eyelet engaging between a pair of eyelets on a lower load.
  • the individual elements 2 are turned sideways connected at their ends so that the axially offset hinge parts 15, 16 fit into each other.
  • eyelet parts 15 both on the outer longitudinal edge 8 and on the longitudinal edge 9 according to FIGS. 3 to 13 should in particular clarify that the individual elements 2 can be designed universally for different structural contours with positive shapes and negative shapes. If the shape of the construction is known from the beginning, it is sufficient to provide eyelet parts 15 only on one of the outer longitudinal edges 8 or 9 in order to avoid unnecessary effort in this case.
  • the through-hole thru axles can be provided.
  • stiffeners such as square or rectangular surfaces.
  • B. can be provided in the form of diagonal struts which are attached with their ends to the connecting hinges 7. The diagonal struts then have at their ends eyelet parts 16 which are penetrated by the hinge bolt inserted in the respective connection hinge 7.
  • the individual elements 2 can consist of wood and, for example, can also be designed as glue binders. However, they can also consist of metal or plastic for other applications.
  • the connecting fittings formed by the eyelet parts 15 and 16 can be metal parts or plastic parts which are dimensioned according to the strength requirements and are connected to the individual elements 2.
  • the individual elements 2 can have a wide variety of cross-sectional shapes. Extruded profiles can also be used, particularly for metal designs. There is also the possibility of integrally molding the hinge parts, in particular in the case of individual plastic elements 2. With less The hinges can be designed as snap or snap-in connections, in particular for toy parts.
  • FIGS. 14 to 19 show different surfaces of the structure, in which the components 1 according to the invention can be used. These are essentially dome-shaped network structures. However, the area of application extends beyond roof structures, pavilion buildings and the like to toys, climbing systems, the decoration area, trade fair systems and the like. There is therefore a very wide range of applications. To summarize briefly, the essential advantages of the components according to the invention are their stepless adjustability with respect to the connection angle, the structurally simple structure, the position of the axis center in each case within the connection node forming a construction corner point and also the torsion-resistant connection between the individual components.
