Definitions

  • the invention relates to a spacer with the independent in the preamble Claimed features.
  • integrally molded spacers Compared to, for example, lawn paving stones directly on their outer surfaces integrally molded spacers have those of the generic type the advantage that they are not only together with conventionally designed and thereby inexpensive available stones are operational. Rather, they leave you practical completely open laying of stones, slabs or the like the slight infiltration of the surface water. At the same time, it is possible to transfer the Stones or the like with each other exactly and safely at a certain distance and to create a perfect joint pattern, as well as a permanent one Secure greening.
  • the known spacers are perpendicular to the laying plane in the intersection areas the joints used.
  • a cylindrical one Element lying between two opposite stones and gives with his Diameter the joint width.
  • the spacer consists of only two cylindrical ones Elements exist, two of these are in the area of a cross joint Spacers used.
  • the cylindrical elements are hollow, the result is Rainwater passed into the ground completely unhindered.
  • the Space inside the tubular elements to be filled with earth so that a continuous greening of the joints is made possible.
  • spacers In a special design of the known spacers are three hollow cylindrical elements so arranged relative to each other that an external one Element is connected to the middle element by a web and the two connecting webs run approximately at right angles to one another. This creates a spacer that prevents the formation of T-joints neighboring stones or the like. If these are in association with each other should be relocated. It does not matter whether it is the laying in the binder association, block association, Dutch association, cross association, runner association or Polish association.
  • a spacer of a different type is known from DE-U 84 35 927, namely a Tile slab spacer for laying tile slabs with joint lines from given width.
  • the spacers used for this consist of themselves crossing bars or arranged in a T-shape.
  • the rods of the spacers are designed with perforations or continuous cavities to one at Use of these tile spacers on the doughy surface of the adhesive material limit inevitable buoyancy when "swimming".
  • the invention has for its object the generic spacers in to develop in such a way that the stones can be laid even faster, Plates or the like enable a clean system for the joint Laying stones, slabs or the like and also an elevated Achieve dimensional stability.
  • the height of the webs can be dimensioned so that they corresponds to only a fraction of the height of the hollow cylindrical elements. Proven it has become when the height of the webs to the height of the hollow cylindrical elements is in a ratio between 1: 2 and 1: 5, preferably 1: 4.5.
  • the webs are flush with one end of the hollow cylindrical Elements are finally molded onto these elements so that they are additional provide a support on the floor for the hollow cylindrical elements, without being in the area of the upper ends of the elements, ie near the top the stones or slabs appear.
  • both webs in the spacing area between two hollow cylindrical elements by at least one Crossbar are stiffened against each other, because of this a special dimensional stability is achieved.
  • the hollow cylindrical elements form namely with the webs a one-piece bar, it is possible to design this bar so that it in a row has two, three or even more hollow cylindrical elements.
  • the innovation also proposes a design for the spacers in which the webs forming the ends of a row are hollow cylindrical Exceed elements and as mutually releasable Insertable coupling pieces are designed. With the help of these coupling pieces can then be practically a variety of similar one-piece strips Line up the escape position so that there is a spacer chain can form, which if necessary already attached over the entire intended laying length can be.
  • a spacer 1 is shown - preferably made by injection molding - on plastic can be. It consists of two hollow cylindrical elements 2 and 3, which are integral or fixed by two parallel webs 4 and 5 are connected to each other at a distance. Halfway between the two hollow cylindrical elements 2 and 3 are the two Crosspieces 4 and 5 are in turn connected to one another by a crosspiece 6, the bracing function.
  • the height 7 of the webs 4 and 5 each only a fraction of the height of the 8 corresponds to hollow cylindrical elements.
  • FIG. 1 Another important training feature of spacer 1 is also already apparent from Fig. 1. It is because the Crosspieces 4 and 5 each flush with one end of the hollow cylindrical Elements 2 and 2 finally molded onto these elements 2 and 3 are so that they take on a supporting function on the ground level can.
  • the spacer 1 shown in FIG. 2 differs from 1 in that a larger number, for example six hollow cylindrical elements 2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12 with the webs 4 and 5 form a one-piece strip 13. That in the form that the hollow cylindrical elements 2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12 with the webs 4 and 5 are connected in a straight line.
  • Fig. 2 of the drawing also shows that the Bars 4 and 5 each form the ends of a row of hollow cylindrical ones Extend elements 2 and 12 by a certain amount 14 and 15 respectively.
  • They can be complementary coupling pieces 16 and 17 form, which are mutually releasable Allow to insert.
  • the coupling piece 16 is, for example. as one laterally around the thickness of the two webs 4 and 5 stepped frame designed while the coupling piece 17 a such fork shape has that it with the coupling piece designed as a frame 16 of a further spacer 1 in the mutual Mating intervention can be brought.
  • Fig. 3 shows an intersection joint 18 between the corners of four stones or slabs 19, 20, 21, 22 laid adjacent to one another is formed.
  • the crossing joint 18 is by four spacers 1 determines which the training of Fig. 2 of the drawing can have, as is easily recognizable.
  • the Spacer 1 laid so that the hollow cylindrical Elements 2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12 integrally connected to one another Webs 4 and 5 come to the support on the ground level, while the sections 4 and 5 projecting upwards from these webs the hollow cylindrical elements 2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12 between the peripheral surfaces of the stones adjoining the crossing joint 18 or plates 19, 20, 21, 22 come to rest.
  • Two as strips 13 designed spacers 1 are shown in FIG. 3 by their interlocking Couplers 16 and 17 interconnected while of the two other spacers 1, one with its coupling piece 16 and the other with its coupling piece 17 the Crossing area of the crossing joint 18 is adjacent.
  • spacers 1 a clean system for the stones to be laid on joint 18 or Form plates 19, 20, 21, 22. It can also be seen in FIG. 3 that the new system of spacers 1 moves quickly and quickly leaves and thus ensures good work progress.
  • the spacers 1 shown in FIGS. 4 and 5 differ themselves from the spacers 1 according to FIGS. 1 and 2 essentially only by adding an additional one to the webs 4 and 5 are provided with parallel longitudinal center web 23, whose height 24 the height 7 of the other two webs 4 and 5 and also the height of the crossbar 6 can exceed.
  • the upper edge 25 of the longitudinal central web should 23 over part of its length with one of the hollow cylindrical ones Elements 2 and 3 or 2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12 increasing Sloping or a concave curvature 26 run like that 4 and 5 can be clearly seen.
  • the longitudinal center bar 23 is between the hollow cylindrical elements 2 and 3 or 2, 3, 9, 10, 11, 12 provided that its lower edge with one end it ends flush.
  • the spacers according to FIGS. 4 and 5 have practical the same design as the spacer 1 according to FIGS. 1 and 2; they are also in the same way between the stones and Plates 19, 20, 21, 22 are provided, as shown in FIG Area of a crossing joint 18 can be seen.
