Definitions

  • the invention relates to a set of components for a scaffold that can be assembled into scaffold days Frame parts with cross struts for the arrangement of walkable floors, preferably Planks, for the scaffolding days, with at least one over the edge of a floor as Fall protection can be arranged, and preferably with diagonal struts for static reinforcement of scaffold compartments formed from frame parts and floors.
  • Such a set of components comprises frame parts, which essentially each consist of two vertical columns and cross braces connecting these two columns consist.
  • frame parts which essentially each consist of two vertical columns and cross braces connecting these two columns consist.
  • cross struts per frame part be provided, namely a cross strut in the lower region and a cross strut in the upper area, with the columns, for example, one each up and down
  • the Upper cross struts for example, have spikes on which walkable planks can be hung so that at the height of an upper cross strut with the help such planks a floor can be formed and with the component set Stacking several frame parts on top of each other builds a scaffold with several scaffolding days can be.
  • the frame parts would be Represent side panels, each with walkable floors on several floors with each other are connected, the side parts and the floors each form scaffold compartments.
  • Some of these scaffold compartments can be further stiffened with the help of diagonal braces be reinforced.
  • These diagonal struts would be placed on the side of the scaffold that does not represent the working side of the scaffold and therefore as the back could be addressed.
  • the front would be that side, too to work towards.
  • a scaffold could have an open front be arranged on a house facade that is to be processed.
  • accident regulations may provide that the back of the scaffold must be provided with delimiting elements on each scaffolding floor in order to close the railings create that eliminate the risk of falling.
  • Working on a floor of a scaffold People are hindered by the boundary elements when working or handling on the floor by mistake on the side of the scaffold facing away from the working side to fall.
  • the work page itself, as described above, is often direct facing a surface to be machined, through which the scaffold is sufficient on this side closed is.
  • the invention is based, the arrangement of the delimiting elements in the task Framework of a set of components of the type mentioned with regard to Fall protection, especially during the assembly and construction work of the Scaffolding itself to improve.
  • this object is achieved in the case of a component set which is distinguished by arranging the limiting element in the structure of the scaffold in a position from which it can only be removed again or only when the scaffolding has been dismantled is.
  • the delimiting elements in the assembled scaffold can no longer be removed, as long as the scaffold itself is not dismantled, and that is what the boundary elements concerns, in reverse order as described, that is with a dismantling the floors of the higher floor and the boundary elements of the higher floor.
  • This is also not possible with the described technology on the market.
  • the limiting elements would be the respective ones Scaffold compartments on the outside close in the way, making it easy for a worker to get the idea could come to temporarily remove these limiting elements to the respective scaffold compartment to open.
  • the delimiting elements are preferably incorporated into the structure of the framework itself Structure involved, so that only by dismantling the scaffolding itself a solution the boundary elements is possible.
  • the respective Letting the columns of the frame parts protrude so far above the upper cross struts, that the plug-in connection areas for attaching the frame parts of the next The floor is about halfway up the scaffold compartment that is being formed.
  • delimiting elements with their eye-shaped connecting elements over the towering spigot of the pillars of the frame parts are pushed before over it the next higher frame parts are attached themselves.
  • the connecting eyes the limiting elements could therefore be like washers in the plug connection areas the frame parts are fixed.
  • a next development of the invention provides instead, in addition to the frame parts Stand poles to be provided that are parallel and at a short distance to a vertical extending column of a frame part can be arranged such that connecting elements or areas of the at least one delimiting element cannot be detached between one Stand rod and the column of the frame part are added.
  • the stand rods and the associated columns of the adjacent frame parts thus form at the back of the scaffolding double poles, the two poles being only a small one Have a distance from each other.
  • the connecting elements of the delimiting elements introduced into this space so that the delimiting elements can only be removed if the total on the stand at the same height is removed. But this is only with a dismantling of the scaffold possible from top to bottom.
  • stand poles Remove it temporarily in the middle to temporarily remove the delimiting elements.
  • a next development of the invention provides that the limiting element on each its ends as a connecting element has an eyelet or an eye on a hook can be suspended, which is arranged between the stand rod and the column of the frame part is and is so long that it is the distance between the stand rod and the Completely filled and bridged.
  • This can be used to attach the limiting element the respective eye can be hung over the hook as long as the associated stand rod has not yet been brought into position at the appropriate height.
  • this distance is completely bridged by the hook, so that the eye of this hook can no longer be removed because it is from the double linkage itself is blocked, which threading and also pivoting the hooked eye prevents and blocks.
  • the associated hooks are preferably arranged on the stand rods.
  • This has the advantage that the limiting elements of the next higher scaffolding days in a simple manner can already be arranged and positioned before the floors of the next higher ones Scaffolding days can be arranged. This is because of the preferred training also possible from the floor of the lower floor. It can be the eyes of the boundary elements already be applied to the hooks of the stand rods before the stand rods itself raised and placed on the next lower stand poles, preferably put on. So it can be the limiting elements already mounted on the stand rods with the stand poles themselves.
  • two parallel limiting rods can also be used as Limiting elements can be provided.
  • the described assembly method is convenient possible, because then the two over the two parallel limiting rods with each other connected stand rods are pivotable like a parallelogram, so that even after installing the first stand rod, the second stand rod with the others Ends of the limiting rod can be raised and mounted.
  • At least one stand rod has a protruding guide loop which corresponds to the predetermined one Distance between the stand rod and a column of a frame part with pretending their expansion, over that before the next higher scaffold bar is erected towering end of the column is cuff-like brushed.
  • the stand rod thus has a fixed loop which has such an extent that after slipping the loop over the column of the associated frame part the two corresponding linkage elements can have a maximum of the predetermined distance and are also stiffened together by the connecting loop.
  • the guide loop can be made upright, for example, from a metallic flat strip be trained.
  • a spacer can be provided, preferably on the stand rod be arranged and protrude from this, for example, pin-like to ensure that the column inserted into the connecting loop also minimally the predetermined distance to the stand rod, so that a positionally accurate guidance of the rod parts to each other is guaranteed.
  • the guide loop and the spacer for example, bending forces or the like absorbed.
  • the guide loop is formed by means of a flat band, this becomes the guide loop over the connector area of the associated column of the frame part, for example pushed down to the cross strut, it must be ensured that by this guide loop and the upright upright flat band does not ensure that it is securely attached of the next higher frame part is impaired.
  • the guide loop has a recess at the corresponding point into which the lower cross strut of the next higher frame part is inserted can be.
  • the cross strut either have a T-profile in cross-section or a rectangular profile.
  • the recess has preferably a shape that ensures this by an upper rectangular shape changes into a T-shape in the lower region of the recess.
  • these instead of with Guide loops are equipped with clamp-like connecting elements, so that in any case these lowest stand poles with the clamp-like connecting elements the bottom pillars of the frame parts can be attached to one to achieve a secure position and also absorb the first weight of higher stand rods to be able to.
  • clamp-like connecting elements would of course also be used for the higher stand rods possible, but guide loops have the advantage of being much faster To enable assembly without tools.
  • the stand rods can be connecting elements for fastening diagonal struts. Since the stand rods for Securing the rear boundary elements provided on the back of the scaffold the diagonal struts on the back of the stand rods are also relevant to be arranged instead of on the frame parts themselves. For example, for attachment diagonal struts of this type, which in principle have a similar rod-like design can, like the delimiting elements, conventionally be provided as they at the current state of the art as connecting elements for the delimiting elements were provided.
  • FIG. 1 shows the structure of a scaffold in a schematic perspective view a set of components according to the invention, namely when setting up first scaffold compartments.
  • frame parts 1 On the floor level there are three frame parts 1, each consisting of two vertically upstanding columns 2a, 2b and transverse struts 3a, 3b connecting them. These three frame parts 1 mentioned are on base plates 4, with telescopic if necessary Feet, parked on the floor.
  • These frame parts 1 each serve as side parts of scaffold compartments to be erected, whereby two side parts with each other via walkable planks 5 with each other are connected.
  • These walk-on planks 5 form the floors of the next higher ones Scaffolding days or the next higher scaffolding compartment.
  • the planks 5 are on their end faces Edges placed on thorns 6, which from the upper cross braces 3b of each of the lower frame parts 1.
  • the planks 5 are against the lifting Thorns 6 through the lower cross bracing 3a of the higher one placed above them Frame part 1 secured.
  • two frame parts are already on the second level 1 shown.
  • a scaffold compartment is indicated by an additional diagonal brace 7 reinforced.
  • the rear columns are designated by 2a.
  • Backwards should be the side of the scaffold shown, that of the open working side of the scaffold is facing away, for example the side facing a retrofit from the street Building can be seen immediately, while the working side of the one to be edited, for example Facade of the house is facing.
  • the above-mentioned rear pillars 2a are used in the construction of the scaffolding with additional ones Stand rods 8a, 8b connected.
  • the stand rods 8a, 8b are also in accordance with Art of tent poles for creating the higher floors, like the columns 2a, 2b of the frame parts 1.
  • next higher upright rods 8b are plugged in, before the next higher up Frame parts 1 are attached, preferably even before the planks 5 of the corresponding ones Scaffold level.
  • the stud frame of the additional Scaffolding poles grow up in the next scaffolding days before the scaffolding compartment the next higher scaffolding level is created.
  • the stand rods 8b carry namely rod-shaped delimitation elements 9, which the respective scaffold level with respect to Secure the risk of falling as a railing. These railings from the boundary elements 9 should be created as possible before the planks 5 are walked on the same scaffold level or can be committed.
  • the stand rods 8b for the limiting elements 9 have hooks 10 on which Connection eyes 11 of the limiting elements 9 can be attached. This appending the connecting eyes 11 on the hook 10 is in particular possible before the corresponding stand rod 8b itself is brought into its final position, for example as on the left side of Fig. 1, plugged onto the lowest stand rod 8a becomes.
  • the stand rods 8b have guide loops 12 which are attached to the stand rod 8b are pushed over the upstanding ends of the pillars 2a, to the stop on the upper cross strut 3b of this column 2a.
  • the bottom stand rods 8a have no guide loops 12, but instead, clamp-like connecting elements 13, which are attached to the pillars 2a of the lowest frame parts 1 can be connected.
  • the bottom stand rods 8a are also shorter, than the upper stand rods 8b and also shorter than the columns 2a of the Frame parts 1. This leads to the fact that the plug connection areas of the stand rods 8a, 8b each at a gap or halfway up to the corresponding connector areas the frame parts 1 are. This favors a half-stage structure initially once the stand rods 8b for the next higher floor and then the frame parts 1 of the next higher floor.
  • Fig. 2 shows in detail a short section of a stand rod 8b. It can be seen in particular the hook 10 arranged in this area.
  • the detail provides the essential Section of the connector portion of the stand rod 8b, which is in this area via a ledge 14 for the plug connection to an upstanding plug pin 15 tapered.
  • a bolt hole 16 In the area of the plug pin 15 there is also a bolt hole 16 for to recognize a locking bolt to secure the connector.
  • Fig. 3 shows another section of a stand rod 8b.
  • this section there is one Guide loop 12 can be seen and its recess 17.
  • a stop pin 18 is arranged as a limit stop.
  • a so-called toggle pin ie in the section of the stand rod 8b shown a pin with a tiltable, cotter-like locking element 20.
  • This tilt pin 19 is intended for the arrangement of a diagonal brace 7, which in principle is similar to a connecting eye is designed like the delimiting elements 9.
  • FIG. 4 shows the area IV encircled in FIG. 1 with a dash-dotted line is in particular, as in the assignment of a stand rod 8b and a column 2a
  • Connecting eyes 11 of limiting elements 9 are secured against disassembly, because the hook protrudes from the stand rod 8b up to the column 2a and thus the Distance between these two link elements completely bridged, so that for disassembly of a connecting eye 11 necessary lifting movement in the area of Hook 10 is no longer possible, and not until the column 2a when the Scaffolding itself is removed.
  • FIG. 5 shows in particular the guide loop 12 with its recess 17 again in FIG a somewhat different view than Fig. 3.
  • the function of this recess 17 and its special shape is clear in connection with FIGS. 6 and 7.
  • 6 and 7 each show sections of stand rods 8b and 8b Columns 2a, which are connected to one another via guide loops 12. Determined the extension of the guide loop 12 the maximum distance between the two linkage elements 2a, 8b from each other, while the stop pin 18 each the minimum distance specifies, so that ultimately the two linkage elements 2a, 8b virtually over the guide loop 12 and the stop pin 18 are clamped together in such a way that forces are also absorbed and can be transferred.
  • FIGS. 6 and 7 also show a section of the respective upper cross strut 3b of the lower column 2a, of which the domes 6 for the planks 5 tower.
  • a section of the lower cross strut 3a is the upper one Recognize pillar 2b.

  • the cross strut 3a either a T cross section as in FIG. 6 or a rectangular cross section as 7, the recess 17 supports these two possible shapes their own shape by taking a special T shape with a special has pronounced crossbar area.
  • FIG. 8 shows the detail designated VIII in FIG. 1, in particular with a lowermost one Stand rod 8a.
  • the clamp-like connecting elements can be seen in particular 13 of this lowest stand rod 8a.
  • the pillars 2b would each be the rear pillars of the scaffold.
  • Fig. 9 shows again overall views of stand rods 8a and 8b in comparison.
  • the same components are designated with the same reference numerals as in the previous ones Characters.
  • Fig. 9 can be seen again that the upper stand rods 8b are formed significantly longer than the lower stand rods 8a in order to achieve that the plug connection areas of these stand rods 8a, 8b on gap or halfway to the plug connection areas of the frame parts 1 or the pillars 2a, 2b are arranged in the scaffolding.
