Definitions

• the invention relates to a trench shoring device consisting of trench shoring boxes, each of which is constructed from two standard trench slabs supported against one another by trench width with the aid of spindle spreaders, and from at least one shaft shoring box which has a width that exceeds the trench width - measured transversely to the longitudinal direction of the trench.
• trench shoring - e.g. for channel laying - trench plates are supported against each other in pairs with the help of spindle spreaders.
• the single trench plate is generally rectangular, it has a cutting edge on the lower edge to be driven into the ground and is so stable on the upper edge opposite the cutting edge - i.e. the so-called anvil edge - that it can be pressed into the ground with the excavator shovel.
• On the side edges which are approximately vertical after installation, such a trench plate, generally on the inner surface facing the trench, can have firmly formed, in particular welded, tabs for connecting trench plates adjacent in the longitudinal direction of the trench.
• bearing positions for the spindle spreads are provided on the inner surfaces of each trench plate.
• a spindle spreader is a stamp that has a screw spindle, for example in the middle, with the help of which the stamp can be made longer or shorter.
• a pair of trench plates are generally stabilized by four spindle struts to form a trench shoring box.
• trenches are often made several meters deep, for example in streets, on the bottom of which sewer pipes, eg for sewers, are to be laid.
• inspection shafts are required at certain intervals.
• Such shafts are often bricked up, their diameter is generally much larger than the diameter of the respective pipeline.
• the trench is largely 2
• This trench width is usually not sufficient to build an inspection shaft. There, the distance between the trench plates supported against one another, measured transversely to the longitudinal direction of the channel tube, must be substantially larger in the remaining part of the trench. In practice, the transition from the normal width of the trench to the larger shaft width causes problems. Since investments in special parts are avoided to manufacture a shaft box surrounding the space of a revision shaft to be built, the most adventurous tools are often used to support the shaft area. Alternatively, the trench is often brought to the width of the shaft at a distance from the space provided for the inspection shaft. This means either a risk of collapse or significantly more soil to be removed than would actually be required to build the canal and the shaft.
• the invention has for its object to provide a trench sheeting box to be integrated into a normal trench sheeting, which consists of standard trench slabs and essentially manages with standard trench slabs, so that the amount of soil to be excavated and the risk of collapse is minimized.
• the solution according to the invention is specified in claim 1 for the trench shoring device specified at the beginning with trench shoring boxes which follow one another along the trench and at least one shaft shoring box.
• the invention consists in particular in that the shaft shoring box on each shaft wall parallel to the adjacent trench wall consists of a standard trench plate and immovably on the longitudinal ends attached to the adjacent trench shoring boxes, transverse to the longitudinal direction of the trench and to the trench plates standing shaft plates.
• a shaft shoring box according to the invention thus consists of two approximately U-shaped structures after installation in the horizontal cross section, the base lines of the U shape formed from standard trench plates being held at such a mutual distance by conventional spindle braces that the opposite 3
• lateral distance of the opposite free ends of the U-legs, that is the free vertical edges of the shaft plates, is approximately as large as the normal trench width, that is the mutual distance of the trench plates in the normal part of the trench, where only one pipe has to be laid .
• the manhole slabs according to the invention are constructed similarly to standard trench slabs; however, in the horizontal direction - measured on the erected plate - they are much narrower than the normal trench plates. In practice, their use is also not limited to use in manhole boxes, but rather they are used wherever trench plates of less than the normal length are used. A manhole box according to the invention can therefore be assembled with the help of components available at the construction site.
• the manhole plate is connected to the trench plate via a form-fitting bolt-eye coupling in such a way that the structure of two manhole plates and one trench plate erected into the U-shape can be pressed into the ground immovably - as if acting in one piece.
• the shaft plate like the trench plate, has a cutting edge on the lower edge.
• the coupling of the trench plate belonging to the shaft shoring box with the shaft plates to be attached to its two longitudinal ends preferably consists of a pin plug connection which is designed geometrically and is adapted to the shape of the adjoining plate edges so that mutual movement of the trench plate and shaft plate is excluded after the pin has been inserted is.
• An erected shaft shoring box according to the invention with two opposing standard trench plates and a total of four shaft plates attached immovably to the longitudinal ends of the trench plates is erected to produce a shaft with the aid of the spindle struts and pressed into the ground at the intended position following the last preceding trench box; the soil is excavated to the required extent or removed in some other way.
• a coupling is provided between the shaft plate and the adjacent trench plate with a vertically lying rail of the trench plate and with a slide mounted horizontally movable relative to the shaft plate, the slide being to be connected to the rail in a vertically movable manner; (Alternatively, the rail can be attached to the shaft plate and the slide can be stored on the trench plate).
• Such a connection makes it possible to compensate for inaccuracies, which are often on the order of several cm, in the horizontal direction as well as in the vertical direction.
• This embodiment of the invention is particularly simple if both the rail and the slide are designed as bolts and if the bolt forming the slide reaches with one eye over the bolt forming the rail. If the eye encompasses the rail with play, the coupling according to the invention can establish the connection at this point in a stable manner even if the plate planes are positioned in the ground rotated relative to one another. In order to compensate for horizontal displacements of the shaft box relative to the adjacent trench box, it can also be advantageous if the bolt forming the slide reaches through a horizontal slot in the shaft plate and is secured on the shaft side by an abutment against forces from the trench plate (also with regard to the slot the aforementioned alternative applies, i.e. the exchange of the trench and manhole slab). 5

• the trench plates 2 are held with the aid of spindle spreaders 3, which are accommodated in the strut bearings 6 provided on the inner surface 5 of the trench plates facing the trench 4.
• two trench plates 2 for forming a trench shoring box 1 are supported against one another by four spindle struts 3, which are accommodated in the four strut bearings 6 of each trench plate 2.
• the respective trench 4 is made so wide (and so deep) that a pipeline to be laid in the longitudinal direction L of the trench, in particular a sewer 7, has space on the trench floor.
• the trench plates 2 are driven into the ground with the cutting edge 8 provided at the lower end.
• the shovel of the excavator used is pressed against the upper edge, the so-called anvil edge 9, of the respective trench plate 2.
• Each approximately rectangular trench plate has two vertical longitudinal edges 10 after erection, on which devices, e.g. welded tabs 11, with holes, e.g. for a bolt 12 are provided.
• Trench shoring boxes 1 which are adjacent to one another can be coupled to one another in the trench via the tabs 11 and bolts 12 and via further connecting pieces (not shown).
• inspection shafts are required at certain intervals. These consist of a brick shaft 13, the diameter D of which is generally 6 NEN is greater than the clear width d of the trench 4 in the area of a normal trench shoring box 1 required for laying a conventional channel 7. A shaft shoring box is therefore required at the points at which a shaft 13 is to be built.
• the shaft shoring box according to the exemplary embodiment is designated 14 overall. It consists of a pair of standard trench plates 2 supported against one another by conventional spindle struts 3 on the longitudinal walls of the shaft parallel to the longitudinal direction L and (in the case of a complete shaft shoring box) four shaft plates 15 which secure the transition between the wide shaft box 14 and the relatively narrow trench shoring box 1.
• tongues 16 welded to the shaft plate 15 are connected to tabs 17 provided on the inner surface 5 of the trench plate 2 by bolts 18.
• care is taken to ensure that the longitudinal edge 10 of the trench plate 2 adjoining the tab 17 butt abuts the inner surface 19 of the shaft plate 15 facing the shaft and that the tongue 16 has a longitudinal edge 20 on the inner surface 5 of the trench plate 2 is present.
