Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Kleinsilo für Schüttgüter des Baubedarfs, in besonderer Weise ausgebildet zum transportgünstigen Einsatz bei rasch wechselnden Baustellen, umfassend einen würfelförmigen, in einen Auslauftrichter ausmündenden Rumpf mit oberem Abschluß durch ein Dach, in dem eine verschließbare Einfüllöffnung angeordnet ist, sowie mit einer ein Auslaßorgan aufweisenden Auslaßöffnung am Boden des Auslauftrichters und mit eckenständigen Füßen, die in einer Ebene dicht unterhalb einer das Auslaßorgan aufweisenden Ebene enden, und weiterhin ein dem Silo als Aufstellständer zuordenbares Gestell.The invention relates to a small silo for bulk materials for building supplies, specially designed for transport-friendly use in rapidly changing construction sites, comprising a cube-shaped hull opening into an outlet funnel with an upper end through a roof in which a closable filling opening is arranged, and with a Outlet opening having outlet opening at the bottom of the discharge funnel and with corner feet, which end in a plane just below a plane containing the outlet member, and furthermore a frame which can be assigned to the silo as a stand.

Es ist Baustellenpraxis, Schüttgüter des Baubedarts in transportablen Silos auf Baustellen zum dortigen Verbrauch über den Zeitraum einer Bauphase zu bevorraten und danach den oder die Silos rasch auf eine andere Baustelle mit oder ohne Restinhalt zu transportieren. Hierfür vorgesehene Silos sind in der bisher am häufigsten verwendeten Form mit fest angeordneten vergleichsweise hohen Fußgestellen ausgebildet und weisen ein relativ großes Fassungsvermögen, z.B. für mehrere Kubikmeter Schüttgut auf. Ihr Einsatz ist dann unwirtschaftlich, wenn es sich um vergleichsweise kleine Baustellen, beispielsweise zur Errichtung eines Ein- oder Mehrfamilienhauses handelt, wobei Materialien wie Zement oder Gips nur in begrenztem Umfange, z.B. für Putzarbeiten benötigt werden und rasch wechselnde Baustellen ein häufiges Umsetzen der Silos erfordern. Dieses Umsetzen erfordert dann auch noch einen unnötig hohen Aufwand, weil ein Silo der genannten Größenordnung mit fest angeordnetem Untergestell die gesamte Pritsche eines Transportfahrzeuges in Anspruch nimmt. Zum Verladen und Entladen muß zudem ein entsprechend schweres Gerät verwendet werden.
Wenn beispielsweise bei Reparatur- oder Sanierungsmaßnahmen an Gebäuden vergleichsweise kleine Baustellen einzurichten sind, die eine Bevorratung vergleichsweise geringer Schüttgutmengen erforderlich machen, wobei aber andererseits diese Mengen doch so groß sind, daß eine Bevorratung der Schüttgüter in Säcken nicht zweckmäßig ist, dann verursacht der Einsatz der vorgenannten und relativ zum Baustellenbedarf zu großen und beim Transport unhandlichen Silos unwirtschaftlich hohe Kosten. Sackgut ist zudem relativ teuer, die Säcke sind verletzbar und daher verlustanfällig und zudem nicht sicher vor Diebstahl. Es besteht daher ein Bedarf an kostengünstigen und problemlos transportierbaren Kleinsilos.It is construction site practice to store bulk goods of the building requirements in portable silos on construction sites for consumption there over the period of a construction phase and then to quickly transport the silo (s) to another construction site with or without residual content. The silos intended for this purpose are designed in the form most commonly used to date with fixed, comparatively high base frames and have a relatively large capacity, for example for several cubic meters of bulk material. Their use is uneconomical when it comes to comparatively small construction sites, e.g. for the construction of a single or multi-family house, whereby materials such as cement or plaster are only required to a limited extent, e.g. for plastering work, and rapidly changing construction sites require frequent repositioning of the silos . This implementation then also requires an unnecessarily high outlay because a silo of the size mentioned with a fixed base frame takes up the entire platform of a transport vehicle. A correspondingly heavy device must also be used for loading and unloading.
If, for example, comparatively small construction sites need to be set up for repair or refurbishment measures on buildings, they need to be stocked make comparatively small quantities of bulk goods necessary, but on the other hand these quantities are so large that it is not practical to store the bulk goods in sacks, then the use of the aforementioned silos, which are too large and unmanageable for transport, causes uneconomically high costs. Bagged goods are also relatively expensive, the bags are vulnerable and therefore prone to loss and also not secure against theft. There is therefore a need for inexpensive and easily transportable small silos.

Aus der DE-U-8 014 246 ist ein Kleinstcontainer für Schüttgut bekannt, der für das vorgenannten Problem Abhilfe schaffen soll. Die Neuerung besteht darin, daß der Container an seiner Unterseite Aufstelleinrichtungen besitzt, die für den Transport in eine Außergebrauchstellung bringbar sind. In einem Ausführungsbeispiel umfaßt die Aufstelleinrichtung einen Standfuß, der aus einem fachwerkartigen Gestell von Profilen besteht, auf das der Behälter lösbar aufgesetzt wird. Nach einem anderen Ausführungsbeispiel ist der Container an seinen vier Ecken mit teleskopierbaren Standbeinen versehen, von denen ein Teil fest mit dem Behälter verbunden ist, während die anderen Teile längenveränderlich und untereinander gegenseitig arretierbar sind.From DE-U-8 014 246 a small container for bulk goods is known which is intended to remedy the aforementioned problem. The innovation is that the container has on its underside erection devices that can be brought into a non-use position for transport. In one embodiment, the installation device comprises a base which consists of a framework-like frame of profiles on which the container is detachably placed. According to another embodiment, the container is provided at its four corners with telescopic legs, one part of which is firmly connected to the container, while the other parts are variable in length and mutually lockable.

Nachteilig ist bei der Ausführung mit teleskopierbaren Standbeinen der reichlich komplizierte Aufwand. Zudem ergeben sich bei der Aufstellung insbesondere im verschmutzten Zustand Behinderungen und Verzögerungen. Andererseits stellt das lösbare Untergestell ein separates Teil dar, welches sowohl beim Transport als auch bei der Lagerung des Containers im ungenutzten Zustrand unnötigen Platz und unnötige Handhabungen erfordert.The disadvantage with the design with telescopic legs is the extremely complicated effort. In addition, there are disabilities and delays, especially when it is dirty. On the other hand, the detachable base frame is a separate part, which requires unnecessary space and unnecessary handling both when transporting and when storing the container in the unused state.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Kleinsilo der im Oberbegriff von Anspruch 1 genannten Art anzugeben, welches die vorgenannten Schwierigkeiten, Nachteile und dadurch verursachte Kosten vermeidet und besonders günstige Platzverhältnisse beim Transport und bei der Aufbewahrung ergibt sowie mit leichten Baustellen-Hilfsmitteln, LKW-Kränen oder anderen Hebevorrichtungen bewegt bzw. be- und entladen werden kann.The invention has for its object to provide a small silo of the type mentioned in the preamble of claim 1, which avoids the aforementioned difficulties, disadvantages and costs caused and particularly favorable space during transport and storage results and can be moved or loaded and unloaded with light construction site aids, truck cranes or other lifting devices.

Zur Lösung der Aufgabe wird mit der Erfindung vorgeschlagen, daß die Raumform des Silos im Querschnitt und in der Höhe, sowie die Raumform des Gestelles im Querschnitt und in der Höhe so aufeinander abgestimmt sind, daß das Gestellt von oben her über den Silokörper überstülpbar ist.To solve the problem it is proposed with the invention that the spatial shape of the silo in cross-section and in height, and the spatial shape of the frame in cross-section and in height are so coordinated that the frame can be slipped over the silo body from above.

Mit der Erfindung wird in einfacher und vorteilhafter Weise erreicht, daß das Gestell bei Transport und bei Aufbewahrung des Kleinsilos im unbenutzten Zustand keinen separaten Transportraum oder Abstellraum benötigt und durch die körperliche Zuordnung zum Silo jederzeit auch griffbereit zur Verfügung steht.With the invention it is achieved in a simple and advantageous manner that the frame does not require a separate transport space or storage space during transport and storage of the small silo in the unused state and is also readily available due to the physical assignment to the silo.

Eine Ausgestaltung sieht vor, daß der Rumpf einen rechteckigen Querschnitt mit einer vergleichsweise schmäleren Querseite und einer vergleichsweise breiteren Längsseite aufweist. Diese Raumform ergibt einerseits den Vorteil, daß für das Unterfahren des Kleinsilos beispielsweise mit einem Putzgerät genügend Raum in der Breite der Längsseite zur Verfügung steht, wodurch die unmittelbare Zuordnung und der Anschluß eines derartigen Gerätes erleichtert wird. Andererseits ergibt sich aus der unterschiedlichen Breitendimensionen der Seiten die Möglichkeit, in Anpassung des zuordnenbaren Gestelles dieses in den Abmessungen einer Euro-Palette beispielsweise mit 800 x 1200 mm Kantenlänge auszuführen. Dadurch wird, wie dies in den Zweckbestimmugen der Euro-Paletten-Norm ist, ein Optimum an Ladeflächenausnutzung beim Transport sichergestellt. Beispielsweise können dann auf einer ebenfalls hierfür genormtem Ladepritsche acht Kleinsilos der erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltung geladen und transportiert werden. Dadurch werden die Kosten für Transport und Umsetzung derartiger Kleinsilos signifikant reduziert, was zur Rationalisierung der Baustellenorganisation beiträgt.One embodiment provides that the fuselage has a rectangular cross section with a comparatively narrower transverse side and a comparatively wider longitudinal side. On the one hand, this shape of space gives the advantage that there is enough space in the width of the long side for moving under the small silo, for example with a cleaning device, which facilitates the direct assignment and connection of such a device. On the other hand, the different width dimensions of the sides result in the possibility of adapting the assignable frame to the dimensions of a Euro pallet, for example with an edge length of 800 x 1200 mm. This ensures, as is the purpose of the Euro Pallet Standard, an optimal use of loading space during transport. For example, eight small silos of the embodiment according to the invention can then be loaded and transported on a loading platform that is also standardized for this purpose. This significantly reduces the costs of transporting and implementing such small silos, which helps to rationalize the site organization.

Eine Ausgestaltung sieht vor, daß das Dach einen daran nach oben zu angesetzten, gegenüber dem Rumpf im Querschnitt verkleinerten Kragen aufweist und dieser mit einer die Einfüllöffnung aufnehmenden und mit einem Flansch über den Kragen überstehenden Abschlußplatte ausgebildet ist.One embodiment provides that the roof has a collar which is attached to it upwards and has a smaller cross section than the hull and this is formed with an end plate receiving the filler opening and with a flange projecting over the collar.

Dieser Kragen bietet den Vorteil, daß der Silo beispielsweise mit einem Gabelstapler oder auch mit einer Steingabeltransportzange problemlos erfasst und zwecks Beladung oder Entladung sicher gehandhabt werden kann. Weiterhin eignet sich der Container zum Transport von Schüttgütern deswegen besonders gut, weil beim Aufstellen im festen Griff eines Gabelstaplers oder einer Steingabeltransportzange nur noch eine Person erforderlich ist.This collar offers the advantage that the silo can be easily gripped, for example, with a forklift or even with a stone fork transport tongs and can be safely handled for loading or unloading. Furthermore, the container is particularly well suited for the transport of bulk goods, because only one person is required to set it up in the firm grip of a forklift or a stone fork transport tongs.

Weitere Ausgestaltungen sind entsprechend den Unteransprüchen vorgesehen.Further refinements are provided in accordance with the subclaims.

Der in den Figuren 1 bis 3 dargestellte Kleinsilo für Schüttgüter des Baubedarfs weist einen würfelförmigen Rumpf 1 mit oberen Abschluß durch ein Dach 2 auf. Das Dach kann entweder, gemäß dargestelltem Beispiel, mit schrägen Dachflächen oder in einer alternativen, einfacheren Ausführung, mit ebenen Dachflächen ausgeführt sein. Der würfelförmige Rumpf mündet in einen Auslauftrichter 3 aus, an dessen unterem Ende eine Auslaßöffnung mit einem Auslaßorgan 4 angeordnet ist. Es kann sich hierbei um einen Schieber oder auch um eine Schmetterlingsklappe handeln. Am Ansatzpunkt zwischen Rumpf 1 und Auslaßtrichter 3 sind eckenständige Füße 5 fest angeordnet und verlaufen vorzugsweise außen bündig mit den rechtwinkligen Ecken des Rumpfes 1. Diese Füße 5 enden dicht unterhalb einer das Auslaßorgan 4 aufweisenden Ebene x-x. Diese Anordnung ist so getroffen, um sicherzustellen, daß beim Abstellen des Kleinsilos ohne Untergestell das Auslaßorgan 4 sich dicht oberhalb der Aufstellflächen befindet, ohne diese zu berühren.
Auf dem Dach 2 befindet sich ein nach oben zu angesetzter, gegenüber dem Rumpf 1 im Querschnitt verkleinerter Kragen 6. Dieser ist mit einer die verschließbare Einfüllöffnung 7 aufnehmenden und mit einem Flansch 8 über den Kragen 6 überstehenden Abschlußplatte 9 ausgebildet.
Dem Kleinsilo 20 ist ein Gestell 25 als Aufstellständer zugeordnet.
Erfindungsgemäß ist die Raumform des Silos 20 im Querschnitt und in der Höhe sowie die Raumform des Gestells 25 im Querschnitt und in der Höhe so aufeinander abgestimmt, daß das Gestell 25 von oben her über den Silokörper 1 überstülpbar ist.The small silo shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 for bulk materials for building supplies has a cube-shaped hull 1 with an upper end through a roof 2. The roof can either, as shown in the example, be designed with sloping roof surfaces or, in an alternative, simpler version, with flat roof surfaces. The cube-shaped body opens into an outlet funnel 3, at the lower end of which an outlet opening with an outlet member 4 is arranged. This can be a slide or a butterfly valve. At the starting point between fuselage 1 and The outlet funnels 3 have fixed feet 5 and are preferably flush on the outside with the right-angled corners of the fuselage 1. These feet 5 end close below a plane xx having the outlet element 4. This arrangement is made to ensure that when the small silo is parked without a base, the outlet member 4 is located just above the installation surfaces without touching it.
On the roof 2 there is a collar 6 which is set upwards and is reduced in cross section in relation to the fuselage 1. This collar is formed with an end plate 9 which receives the closable filler opening 7 and projects with a flange 8 over the collar 6.
A frame 25 is assigned to the small silo 20 as a stand.
According to the invention, the spatial shape of the silo 20 in cross-section and in height and the spatial shape of the frame 25 in cross-section and in height are coordinated with one another such that the frame 25 can be slipped over the silo body 1 from above.

Beim Vergleich der Figuren 1 bis 3 ist erkennbar, daß der Rumpf 1 einen rechteckigen Querschnitt mit einer vergleichsweise schmäleren Querseite 10 (Fig. 2) und einer vergleichsweise breiteren Längsseite 11 (Fig. 1) aufweist. Dazu geht aus der gezeigten Situation des Silos mit untergefahrener Putzmaschine der Vorteil dieser unterschiedlich breiten Abmessungen hervor, weil dadurch nämlich der Unterbau unterschiedlicher Fabrikate von Putzmaschinen problemlos möglich gemacht wird. Bei einer quadratischen Ausführung wäre dies nicht ohne unnötige Gesamtvergrößerung des Kleinsilos möglich gewesen.When comparing FIGS. 1 to 3, it can be seen that the fuselage 1 has a rectangular cross section with a comparatively narrower transverse side 10 (FIG. 2) and a comparatively wider longitudinal side 11 (FIG. 1). To this end, the situation of the silo with a plastering machine under it shows the advantage of these differently wide dimensions, because it makes the substructure of different makes of plastering machine possible without any problems. With a square version, this would not have been possible without unnecessarily increasing the overall size of the small silo.

Aus den Figuren ist weiterhin erkennbar, daß der Kragen 6 mit der als Flansch 8 überstehenden Abschlußplatte 9 für einen Zugriff mit Gabelstapler oder mit einer Steingabeltransportzange zwecks Handhabung des Silos 20 Vorteile hat. Der Flansch 8 verhindert dabei ein Abrutschen der Staplergabel oder der Steingabeltransportzange.
Aus der Darstellung in den Figuren 1 und 2 geht weiterhin hervor, daß das Gestell 25 einen oberen Rahmen 26 aufweist und dieser in seinen Längs- 28 und Querprofilen 27 so bemessen ist, daß der Rahmen 26 nach Überstülpen des Gestelles 25 über den Silo 20 auf den Dachbereichen 21, 22 des Silos 20 aufliegt. Auf diese Weise wird eine sichere und insbesondere für den Transport zulässige feste Zuordnung zwischem dem Silokörper 1 und dem Gestell 25 erreicht, ohne daß eine zusätzliche Befestigung des Gestelles 25 am Silo 20 erforderlich wird.From the figures it can also be seen that the collar 6 with the end plate 9 protruding as a flange 8 has advantages for access by forklift or with a stone fork transport tongs for the purpose of handling the silo 20. The flange 8 prevents the stacker fork or the stone fork transport pliers from slipping.
From the illustration in Figures 1 and 2 it can further be seen that the frame 25 has an upper frame 26 and this in its longitudinal 28 and Cross sections 27 is dimensioned such that the frame 26 rests on the roof areas 21, 22 of the silo 20 after the frame 25 has been slipped over the silo 20. In this way, a secure, and in particular permissible, fixed association between the silo body 1 and the frame 25 is achieved without additional fastening of the frame 25 to the silo 20 being necessary.

Eine Ausgestaltung sieht vor, daß der obere Rahmen 26 des Gestelles 25 an den Eckbereichen nach oben zu offene Taschen 29 aufweist, die so bemessen und angeordnet sind, daß sie die Füße 5 des Silos 20 beim Aufsetzen darin eingreifbar einnehmen. Damit ergibt sich eine sichere Auflage des Silos 20 auf dem Gestell 25 für einen problemlosen und unfallsicheren Betrieb.One embodiment provides that the upper frame 26 of the frame 25 has upwardly open pockets 29 at the corner regions, which are dimensioned and arranged such that they engage the feet 5 of the silo 20 when they are placed on them. This results in a secure support of the silo 20 on the frame 25 for problem-free and accident-safe operation.

Eine Ausgestaltung sieht weiter vor, daß das Gestell 25 die Maße einer Euro-Palette (800 x 1200 mm) aufweist. Durch diese Angleichung an die Euro-Paletten-Norm wird eine optimale Ausnutzung der verfügbaren Transportfläche der Ladepritsche eines Transportfahrzeuges gewährleistet.An embodiment further provides that the frame 25 has the dimensions of a Euro pallet (800 x 1200 mm). This alignment with the Euro-Pallet standard ensures optimal use of the available transport space on the loading platform of a transport vehicle.

Und schließlich sieht eine Ausgestaltung vor, daß die Einfüllöffnung 7 einen Kragen 30 aufweist, dessen oberer Rand 31 mit einer Abrundung 32 unter Vermeidung scharfer Kanten mit einem solchen Radius ausgebildet ist, daß ein zur Zugabe eines Zusatzmittels von oben einhängbarer wurstförmiger Kunststoffbeutel 33 ohne Verletzung einhängbar ist.And finally, one embodiment provides that the filling opening 7 has a collar 30, the upper edge 31 of which is formed with a rounding 32 while avoiding sharp edges with such a radius that a sausage-shaped plastic bag 33 which can be suspended from above with the addition of an additive can be suspended without injury is.
