In order to suit the root-space protection to the biological, technical and aesthetic requirements, the proposal is for a structural insert in which the basic component (1) is subdivided transversely to its vertical axis (2) into at least two parts (3, 4), where the upper part has a recess (5) for the cover.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf einen Bauteilsatz zur Herstellung eines Wurzelraumschutzes gemäss dem Oberbegriff des Anspruchs 1.The present invention relates to a component set for the production of root protection according to the generic term of claim 1.

Ein Wurzelraumschutz (auch Baumkranz genannt) weist einen in der Erde versenkbaren Fundamentrahmen (auch Basiselement genannt) auf, in den ein Baum mit seiner Wurzel eingepflanzt wird und der die Wurzel schützend umgibt. Im Bereich der den Baum umgebenden Verkehrsfläche ist das Basiselement mit einer Fassung versehen, in die nach dem Pflanzen des Baumes eine mindestens zweiteilige Abdeckung einlegbar ist, die eine den Baumstamm umgebende Öffnung aufweist. Die Abdeckung besteht aus Elementen, die nach Art eines Zusammensetzspiels zusammenfügbar sind. Bei der Abdeckung des in den DE-A-40 09 612 und 40 09 613 gezeigten Wurzelraumschutzes können die Elemente beim Einlegen in die Fassung unterschiedlich zusammengefügt oder gegenseitig verdreht und damit die Exzentrizität der Stammöffnung gewählt werden. Dieser Wurzelraumschutz hat indessen den Nachteil, dass das Basiselement hinsichtlich Grösse, insbesondere hinsichtlich seiner Tiefe fest vorgegebenen ist. Auch die Wurzeldurchtrittsöffnungen in der Wand des Basiselementes sind fest vorgegeben. Dabei ist der damit schützbare Wurzel raum der Wurzelform des Baumes nicht anpassbar, was dessen Wachstum beeinträchtigt. Ebenso kann die Tiefe des seitlichen Wurzelaustritts aus dem Basiselement nicht den Anforderungen des Strassenbauingenieurs angepasst werden, so dass die Gefahr besteht, dass einzelne der Baumwurzeln in zu geringer Tiefe austreten und den Strassenbelag anheben. Die DE-U-9 014 587 offenbart einen genannten Bauteilsatz, bei dem ein Teil des Basiselements durch einen Betonring gebildet ist. Für den Wurzeldurchtritt weist dieser Betonring Wurzelkanäle auf.A root protection (also called tree wreath) shows one in foundation frame that can be lowered into the ground (also basic element into which a tree is planted with its root and protectively surrounds the root. In the area of the Traffic area surrounding the tree is the basic element with a version in which after planting the tree an at least two-part cover can be inserted, the has an opening surrounding the tree trunk. The cover consists of elements in the manner of a composition game are put together. When covering the in DE-A-40 09 612 and 40 09 613 shown root canal protection can Elements put together differently when inserted into the socket or twisted each other and thus the eccentricity the trunk opening. This root space protection has the disadvantage, however, that the base element in terms of size, especially in terms of its depth is fixed. Even the root openings are fixed in the wall of the base element. Here is the root space of the root form of the Tree is not adaptable, which impairs its growth. Likewise, the depth of the lateral root exit from the Basic element does not meet the requirements of the road construction engineer be adjusted so that there is a risk that some of the tree roots emerge at a shallow depth and raise the road surface. DE-U-9 014 587 discloses a component set mentioned, in which a part of the base element by a concrete ring is formed. For root penetration points this concrete ring on root canals.

Zur Beseitigung dieser Nachteile ist ein Wurzelraumschutz bekannt geworden, bei dem das Basiselement aus im Querschnitt rechteckigen Betonbalken aufgebaut ist. Beim Aufbau werden auf den ebenen Boden einer Grube blockhausartig parallele Balkenpaare um jeweils 90° gedreht aufeinander gelegt, bis das Basiselement die gewünschte Höhe hat. Die offenen Stellen in den vier Wänden des Basiselementes werden dort wo kein Wurzelaustritt erfolgen darf mit etwas kleineren Balken gleichen Querschnitts verschlossen. Dieses Basiselement hat den Nachteil geringer Eigenstabilität und könnte auf Dauer die darauf wirkende Verkehrsbelastung nicht zureichend aufnehmen. Die Abdeckung wird daher auf einem das Basiselement umgebenden Pfahlfundament abgestützt, wozu auf die Pfähle ein Rahmen mit einer die Abdeckung aufnehmenden Fassung befestigt wird. Weiter ist es bei diesem Wurzelraumschutz nicht möglich, das Basiselement zur Bildung eines Randsteins über die Verkehrsfläche hinaus vorstehen zu lassen.To eliminate these disadvantages is root protection become known in which the base element from in cross section rectangular concrete beam is built. When building become blockhouse-like on the flat floor of a pit parallel pairs of bars rotated 90 ° on top of each other placed until the base element has the desired height. The vacancies in the four walls of the base element where no root emergence may occur with slightly smaller ones Bars of the same cross section closed. This basic element has the disadvantage of low inherent stability and could in the long run the traffic load acting on it is insufficient record, tape. The cover is therefore on the one Base element surrounding the pile foundation supported, for what purpose the piles form a frame with a covering for the cover Socket is attached. It is further with this root protection not possible the base element to form a Randstein protrude beyond the traffic area to let.

Bei allen bekannten Einrichtungen zum Schutze des Wurzelraumes ist der nach dem Einbau sichtbare Teil nur beschränkt dem Stil der umgebenden Verkehrsfläche anpassbar.In all known devices for protecting the root area the part visible after installation is only limited adaptable to the style of the surrounding traffic area.

Die vorliegende Erfindung stellt sich daher die Aufgabe, Mittel zu schaffen, mit denen ein Wurzelraumschutz ohne die genannten Nachteile herstellbar ist und bei dem in einfacher Weise die Neigung des Abdeckung der Neigung der angrenzenden Verkehrsfläche anpassbar ist.The object of the present invention is therefore to To create means by which a root canal protection without the mentioned disadvantages can be produced and in the simpler Way the slope of the cover the slope of the adjacent Traffic area is customizable.

Erfindungsgemäss wird diese Aufgabe durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst.According to the invention, this object is achieved by Features of claim 1 solved.

Anhand der beiliegenden schematischen Zeichnung wird die Erfindung beispielsweise erläutert. Es zeigen:

Das in Fig. 1 gezeigte Basiselement 1 ist quer zu seiner Vertikalachse 2 in drei Teile 3, 4 geteilt. Die beiden unteren Teile sind gleich, wogegen das oberste Teil 3 in der Form abweicht und mit einer Fassung 5 versehen ist, in die eine Abdeckung (Fig. 6) einlegbar ist. Vier Gewindeschäfte 6 verbinden das oberste Teil 3 mit dem nach unten anschliessenden Teil 4. Der Abstand zwischen diesen beiden Teilen 3, 4 ist durch nicht sichtbare, auf die Gewindeschäfte 6 aufgeschraubte Muttern einstellbar. Durch ein Verstellen dieser Muttern kann die Neigung des obersten Teils 3 mit Bezug auf die Vertikalachse verändert und der Neigung der angrenzenden Verkehrsfläche angepasst werden. Abstandhalter 7 halten die unteren Teile 4 distanziert und bilden Durchtrittsöffnungen 8, durch welche die Wurzeln eines eingepflanzten Baumes in das umgebende Erdreich hindurchwachsen können. Wie Fig. 2 zeigt, können je nach der für das Basiselement 1 gewünschten Tiefe an das oberste Teil 3 nach unten eines oder mehrere der rahmenförmigen Teile 4 anschliessen. Ist über die ganze Tiefe des Wurzelraumschutzes kein seitlicher Wurzel austritt erwünscht, werden die Teile 4 unmittelbar aufeinander gelegt (Fig. 2b bis 2d); andernfalls werden Abstanhalter 7 zwischen die Teile 4 gelegt (Fig. 3). Darf aber nur bis zu einer bestimmten Tiefe unter der Verkehrsfläche kein seitlicher Wurzelaustritt erfolgen (um beispielsweise ein Aufbuckeln der Verkehrsfläche durch die Baumwurzel zu vermeiden), werden die Teile 4 bis in diese Tiefe unmittelbar aufeinander gelegt und erst in grösserer Tiefe mittels der Abstandhalter 7 distanziert.The base element 1 shown in Fig. 1 is transverse to it Vertical axis 2 divided into three parts 3, 4. The two lower parts are the same, whereas the top part 3 in the Form deviates and is provided with a version 5, in which a cover (Fig. 6) can be inserted. Four threaded shafts 6 connect the uppermost part 3 with the one connected below Part 4. The distance between these two parts 3, 4 is by not visible, screwed onto the threaded shafts 6 Adjustable nuts. By adjusting this Nuts can refer to the slope of the top part 3 the vertical axis changed and the inclination of the adjacent Traffic area to be adjusted. Spacers 7 hold the lower parts 4 distanced and form passage openings 8, through which the roots of a planted tree in the surrounding soil can grow through. Like Fig. 2 shows, depending on the desired for the base element 1 Depth to the top part 3 down one or more connect the frame-shaped parts 4. It's all over Depth of the root canal protection no lateral root emerges desired, the parts 4 are placed directly on top of each other (Fig. 2b to 2d); otherwise, standoff 7 between the parts 4 placed (Fig. 3). But only up to one certain depth under the traffic area no lateral Root emergence occurs (for example, to hump up avoid the traffic area through the tree root), the parts 4 to each other down to this depth placed and only in greater depth using the Spacer 7 distanced.

Fig. 4d zeigt das gleiche Basiselement wie Fig. 1. Um dessen Erscheinungsbild stilistisch der Umgebung des Baumes anpassen zu können ist das oberste Teil 3 in verschiedenen Ausführungsformen vorhanden. Die Fig. 4a bis 4c zeigen eine acht-, eine sechs- bzw. viereckige Rahmenform für die Abdeckung. Bei allen obersten Teilen 3 sind unabhängig von ihrer Form die Abstände 9' der Führungen 9 für die Gewindeschäfte 6 sowie die Form der Fassungen 5 gleich. Somit können auf die Teile 3 mittels der Gewindeschäfte 6 wahlweise einer der in Fig. 4 gezeigten Teile angebracht werden.Fig. 4d shows the same basic element as Fig. 1. For its Adapt the appearance stylistically to the surroundings of the tree the top part 3 in different ways Embodiments available. 4a to 4c show one octagonal, hexagonal or quadrangular frame shape for the cover. All top 3 are independent of their shape, the distances 9 'of the guides 9 for the threaded shafts 6 and the shape of the sockets 5 are the same. Consequently can optionally on the parts 3 by means of the threaded shafts 6 one of the parts shown in Fig. 4 are attached.

Die Teile 3 können anstatt in Beton auch in Gusseisen oder in einem anderen Material hergestellt sein und durch die Materialwahl der Umgebung des Baumes angepasst werden. Das gleiche gilt für die Abdeckung 10, die in den Fig. 5a und 5c aus Gusseisen besteht und in Fig. 5b mit einem Pflastersteinbelag verblendet ist.The parts 3 can instead of in concrete also in cast iron or be made in another material and by the Material selection to be adapted to the environment of the tree. The the same applies to the cover 10 shown in FIGS. 5a and 5c consists of cast iron and in Fig. 5b with a paving stone covering is blinded.

Die Fig. 6a bzw. 6b zeigen Abdeckungen aus Gusseisen bzw. Beton. Nebst den Abdeckungen 10 sind noch Eckverzierungen 11 gezeigt, die in Verbindung mit dem Teil 3 gemäss Fig. 4c verwendbar sind. Diese Eckverzierungen 11 werden bei jenem Teil (Fig. 4c) in stilistischer Übereinstimmung mit der in der Fassung 5 eingelgten Abdeckung 10 ausgewählt und in entsprechende Ausnehmungen 12 eingelegt, in denen sie mit der Oberfläche des Basiselementes bündig sind.6a and 6b show covers made of cast iron or Concrete. In addition to the covers 10 there are also corner ornaments 11 shown in connection with part 3 according to FIG. 4c are usable. These corner ornaments 11 are in that Part (Fig. 4c) in stylistic accordance with that in the version 5 inserted cover 10 selected and in corresponding Recesses 12 inserted, in which they with the Surface of the base element are flush.

Die rahmenförmigen Teile 3 und 4 können aus zwei oder vier zur Vertikalachse 2 radial symmetrischen Segmenten zusammengesetzt sein. Ebenso die Abdeckung 10, wobei diese aus mindestens zwei Segmenten bestehen muss.The frame-shaped parts 3 and 4 can consist of two or four assembled to the vertical axis 2 radially symmetrical segments be. Likewise, the cover 10, which consists of at least two segments must exist.

Trotz der vergleichsweise geringen Zahl verschiedener Bauteile können mit dem beschriebenen Bauteilsatz eine Vielzahl unterschiedlicher Baumkränze hinsichtlich Tiefe, Lage der Wurzelaustrittsöffnungen, des Erscheinungsbildes und der Neigung der Verkehrsfläche angefertigt werden. Der Bauteilsatz hat zudem den Vorteil, dass sein Erscheinungsbild Mode bedingten Änderungen des Geschmackes mit wenig Aufwand anpassbar ist, indem lediglich die Teile 3 und die Abdeckung 10 einer neuen Modeform angepasst werden müssen.Despite the comparatively small number of different components can do a lot with the described component set different tree wreaths in terms of depth, location of the Root outlet openings, the appearance and the Inclination of the traffic area. The component set also has the advantage that its appearance is fashion conditional changes in taste adaptable with little effort is by only parts 3 and the cover 10 need to be adapted to a new fashion form.
