Definitions

  • the invention relates to a rod node as a construction element a supporting structure.
  • the supporting structure serves to support a glass wall or a glass roof.
  • the Glass wall or the glass roof consist of a variety of individual panes of glass put together with each other Distance are fixed on the supporting structure.
  • Such Glass walls or glass roofs are used for large-scale glazing of components.
  • Known staff nodes of the type mentioned at the beginning are in shape of two bars crossing at right angles or oblique angles known.
  • the on such a basic construction too fixing glass panes have a corresponding layout square, diamond-shaped, square or rectangular Shape.
  • the individual glass panes can accordingly angularly butting on the corresponding uniaxial in space arched support structure supported and fastened will.
  • problems arise with biaxially curved in space Glazing areas since they are flat in themselves Glazing panes do not have their corner points at the same time can rest on all four nodes.
  • the glass panes are deformed elastically to install. With larger curvature problems you can do the same preformed disks or broken along a crack line Discs are used.
  • the invention is based on this prior art based on the task of specifying a possibility for large-scale, Support structures that are curved in the room without any problems to be able to glaze.
  • the truss structure can also be designed so that the rod nodes include triangular faces. Then can in its base triangular glass panes in the glazing be used. There is always the under each free edge Glass pane a rod of the supporting structure available. In order to can arbitrarily curved support structures and be glazed. According to the respective requirements are the angles between adjacent bars preferably in Range greater than zero degrees and less than 180 degrees. At Such a construction can be the transmitting Loads well on the other rods connected transfer.
  • the end areas of the bars can be in any node under any Angles meet.
  • the nodes of a supporting structure are therefore often not constructive with each other be identical.
  • the manufacturing requirements the formation of the components present at a node is therefore extremely high. This effort can be practically only cope with computer-aided design work.
  • Constructively around the line grid on which the computer is based implement it correctly and easily in a bar knot grid
  • These grid lines or system lines meet then in a point of each node. From this theoretical node is then "down" the Knot constructed.
  • the tab plates if necessary sunk so far into the rod ends that always between them there is a predetermined distance. Since the tab washers a constant thickness and formation in every knot have comparable computing requirements for all nodes be taken as a basis.
  • the glazing for such a supporting structure can be made of a single disk or a disk comprising several disks Single or insulating glass pane exist.
  • the Panes of glass can also be seen through opaque panels be replaced.
  • the edges of the Glass pane are thus in the area of the nodes between two Pressed discs.
  • One of the disks is that of the constructive one Formation of the existing cover plate knot.
  • the other pane is on the outside of the glazing available. This additional disc can be constructive on simple way via a screw on the outer Tab plate can be attached.
  • a rod node 10 shown in Fig. 1 meet in In the present example, six rods 12, 14, 16, 18, 20, 22 on each other.
  • the bars are part of a supporting structure.
  • the Knots can then exist within the supporting structure be that the bars connecting the nodes are triangular Frame areas. These surfaces can also be square, and thus be trapezoidal surfaces, for example.
  • Each of the bars 12 to 18 consists of a rectangular profile 40 mm (millimeters) wide in the present example 13 and 60 mm height 15.
  • the two side surfaces 24, 26 run pointed in the respective end region 28 of the rod in question towards each other.
  • Each rod 12 to 22 thus has two tapered, sloping face areas 30, 32.
  • Adjacent Bars, such as bars 18 and 16, are with their adjacent end face areas 30, 32 flat to each other. This applies to all bars and all end face areas of the various members in a member node. In this way, compressive forces can be created through contact via the End face areas 30, 32 on adjacent bars of a bar node 10 are transmitted.
  • the external thread 44 is present on the threaded bolt 40 such that it is within the lower cover plate 36 ends and not in the area of the end face regions 30, 32 engages.
  • the cover plates 34, 36 are so precisely fitting in the two tapered Height ranges 19, 21 used that a transfer of Compression forces also possible in these two height ranges is. For the transfer of pressure forces is therefore also in rod-like weakened end region 28 of each rod cross-section comparable to the unattenuated bar cross-section to disposal.
  • the recessed arrangement of the upper one in particular Cover plate 34 in the bars and the sunken arrangement the screw heads 42 in the cover plates 34 it, the top of the bars in the area of a knot 10 to run through in terms of height practically.
  • a central bore 50 is in the upper cover plate 34 with an internal thread 52.
  • a screw 78 can be screwed in from above, such as will be described in more detail below.
  • This glazing exists in the present Example from an insulating glazing 56, which from a lower disc 58 and a spaced apart upper disc 60 is composed in the usual way.
  • This Glazing 56 rests on sealing profiles 62, 64.
  • This Sealing profiles 62, 64 cover the upper sides of the Bars 12 to 22 and encompass the top two longitudinal edges of the rods with tabs 66, 68 projecting downwards Sealing profiles 62, 64 have a centrally projecting upward Web 70.
  • This web 70 protrudes between the forehead or Side surfaces of the glazing 56 upwards through it.
  • a sealant sits on the web 70 from above 72, in the plane of the upper disc 60 a waterproof Connection between the upper discs 60 represents.
  • each node and thus also node 10 the glazing 56 and thus the upper pane 60 of covered at the top by a silicone washer 74.
  • On this Disc 74 is an outer disc 76 from above.
  • the Discs 74, 76 have a central recess, through which penetrates a screw 78 from the outside, which in one central internal thread 52 of the upper cover plate 34 screwed is.
  • the screw 78 does not touch the end areas 28 of the rods meeting in the rod node 10.
  • This Screw 78 is from the outside e.g. covered by a cap nut 80.
  • a sealant 82 surrounding the outer disk 76 provides a watertight connection between the outer Pane 76 and the upper panes 60 of the glazing 56 in Area of the node 10
  • the rods must be at an incline in the room be installed twisted between adjacent rod nodes 10.
  • This construction of the rod node 10 allows a considerable one Transfer of tensile, compressive and moment forces.
  • the Glazing 56 rests freely on the rod knot on.
  • the bending stiffness of the bar knots is included about 60 percent of the rigidity of the rods used high. This allows rods with a width of only for the first time 40 mm can be used.
  • the supporting structure gets thereby a very slim appearance.
  • the glazing 56 can have any curved glazing surfaces be formed.
  • the individual are Flat glazing panes. Because of the in the room different orientation in a staff node Rods are the end face regions 30, 32 of the individual Rods are not necessarily perpendicular to the top or Bottom of the rod in question aligned. in the generally each rod will have face regions 30, 32 which differ in their angular orientation from the corresponding ones Differentiate the end face areas of adjacent bars.
