Description

1. Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Brücke aus einer begeh- und/oder befahrbaren Fläche und einem über Streben der Fläche zugeordneten Handlauf, wobei die Fläche aus einzelnen Planken und der Handlauf aus einzelnen Teilstücken besteht.1. The present invention relates to a bridge consisting of a surface that can be walked on and / or driven over, and a handrail assigned to the surface by struts, the surface consisting of individual planks and the handrail consisting of individual sections.

Brücken sind in vielfältiger Form und Ausführung bekannt. Beispielsweise zeigt die DE 198 51 202.3 eine Brücke, bei welcher der Handlauf aus einzelnen Hohlprofilabschnitten besteht, welche zumindest eine Längsnut zur Verbindung mit den Streben aufweist. Das Hohlprofil besteht aus stranggepressten Aluminium, ferner können auch die Streben und die Flächen aus stranggepressten Aluminiumprofilen bestehen, wie dies auch insbesondere in der DE 196 25 819.7 Al bekannt ist.Bridges are known in many forms and designs. For example, DE 198 51 202.3 shows a bridge in which the handrail consists of individual hollow profile sections, which has at least one longitudinal groove for connection to the struts. The hollow profile consists of extruded aluminum, the struts and the surfaces can also consist of extruded aluminum profiles, as is also known in particular from DE 196 25 819.7 Al.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Brücke der oben genannten Art zu schaffen, welche auf einfache Art und Weise zusammenfaltbar ist.The present invention has for its object to provide a bridge of the type mentioned above, which can be folded up in a simple manner.

Zur Lösung dieser Aufgabe führt, dass mindestens zwei Streben übers Kreuz einerseits mit einer Planke und einem Teilstück gelenkig und andererseits mit einer Planke bzw. einem Teilstück lösbar verbunden sind.The solution to this task is that at least two struts are articulated crosswise on the one hand with a plank and a section and on the other hand releasably connected to a plank or a section.

Dies bedeutet, dass die Planken und Teilstücke mit den Streben einseitig verbunden bleiben, jedoch nach ihrem Lösen so bewegbar sind, dass sie gefaltet werden können.This means that the planks and sections remain connected to the struts on one side, but after they have been released they can be moved so that they can be folded.

Das Falten übernehmen vorzugsweise die Streben. Der Einfachheit halber sind zwei Streben übers Kreuz verbunden und gehen miteinander eine Scherenverbindung ein. Das bedeutet, dass an der Kreuzungsstelle der beiden Streben ein Drehgelenk vorhanden ist, so dass die Streben eine scherende Bewegung ausführen können.The struts preferably take over the folding. For the sake of simplicity, two struts are connected crosswise and form a scissor connection. This means that there is a swivel joint at the intersection of the two struts so that the struts can perform a shearing movement.

Zur Halterung von Planken und Teilstücken ist nun eine Strebe gelenkig mit einem Ende einer Planke und die andere Strebe gelenkig mit einem Ende des Teilstückes verbunden. Diese Verbindung bleibt in jeder Gebrauchslage der Brücke bestehen.To hold planks and sections, one strut is now articulated to one end of a plank and the other strut is articulated to one end of the section. This connection remains in every position of use of the bridge.

Anderenends geht nun die eine Strebe in Gebrauchslage der Brücke eine lösbare Verbindung mit dem Teilstück und die andere Strebe eine lösbare Verbindung mit der Planke ein. Dabei soll die Strebe an der lösbaren Verbindung mit dem Teilstück auch gelenkig mit einer nachfolgenden Strebe verbunden sein. Diese gelenkige Verbindung besitzt bevorzugt einen Bolzenabschnitt, der in dieser Gebrauchslage in einer Ausnehmung in dem Teilstück lösbar festgelegt ist. Wie die Festlegung geschieht, ist von untergeordneter Bedeutung und wird deshalb nicht näher beschrieben.On the other hand, one strut in the position of use of the bridge now forms a detachable connection with the section and the other strut forms a detachable connection with the plank. The strut at the detachable connection to the section should also be articulated to a subsequent strut. This articulated connection preferably has a bolt section, which in this position of use is releasably fixed in a recess in the section. How the determination is made is of minor importance and is therefore not described in detail.

Die andere Strebe geht ebenfalls an der lösbaren Verbindung mit der Planke eine gelenkige Verbindung mit einer nachfolgenden Strebe ein. Damit hier nun auch die Planke festgelegt werden kann, sind sowohl an dieser gelenkigen Verbindung als auch endwärtig an der Planke Hülsenführungen vorgesehen, welche in Kongruenz gebracht werden können. Durch diese Hülsenführungen kann dann eine Stange zum Herstellen der lösbaren Verbindung eingesetzt werden.The other strut also forms an articulated connection with a subsequent strut at the detachable connection to the plank. So that the plank can now also be fixed here, sleeve guides are provided both on this articulated connection and at the end of the plank, which can be brought into congruence. Through these sleeve guides, a rod can then be used to produce the releasable connection.

Diese Brücke ist infolge der verwendeten stranggepressten Aluminiumprofile sehr leicht, dennoch ausserordentlich stabil und kann platzsparend transportiert werden.Due to the extruded aluminum profiles used, this bridge is very light, yet extremely stable and can be transported to save space.

Weitere Vorteile, Merkmale und Einzelheiten der Erfindung ergeben sich aus der nachfolgenden Beschreibung bevorzugter Ausführungsbeispiele sowie anhand der Zeichnung; diese zeigt in denFurther advantages, features and details of the invention result from the following description of preferred exemplary embodiments and from the drawing; this shows in the

Figuren 1 bis 3 eine erfindungsgemässe Brücke in drei unterschiedlichen Gebrauchslagen.Figures 1 to 3 an inventive bridge in three different positions of use.

Die Brücke weist eine begeh- und/oder befahrbare Fläche 1 auf, welche aus einzelnen Planken 2 besteht. Die Fläche 1 ist über Streben 3 bzw. 4 mit einem Handlauf 5 verbunden, wobei dieser Handlauf 5 wiederum aus einzelnen Teilstücken 6 zusammengesetzt ist.The bridge has a surface 1 that can be walked on and / or driven over, which consists of individual planks 2. The surface 1 is connected via struts 3 and 4 to a handrail 5, this handrail 5 in turn being composed of individual sections 6.

Die Planke 2 ist einends gelenkig mit der Strebe 3 verbunden. Andernends weist sie eine lösbare Verbindung 7 mit der Strebe 4 auf. Auch ein Teilstück 6 des Handlaufes 5 ist einends gelenkig mit der Strebe 4 verbunden und geht anderenends eine lösbare Verbindung 8 mit der Strebe 3 ein.The plank 2 is articulated at one end to the strut 3. On the other hand, it has a detachable connection 7 with the strut 4. A section 6 of the handrail 5 is articulated to the strut 4 at one end and a detachable connection 8 to the strut 3 at the other end.

Beide Streben 3 und 4 kreuzen sich scherenartig und gehen an ihrer Verbindungsstelle eine Verbindung über ein Drehgelenk 9 ein.Both struts 3 and 4 intersect like scissors and enter a connection at their junction via a pivot joint 9.

Die Funktionsweise der vorliegenden Erfindung ist folgende:The operation of the present invention is as follows:

Die zusammengefaltete Gebrauchslage der Brücke ist in Figur 3 dargestellt. Die Streben 3 und 4 liegen als Paket aneinander, wobei die "Schere", die durch diese Streben 3 und 4 gebildet wird, weitestgehend geschlossen ist.The folded position of use of the bridge is shown in Figure 3. The struts 3 and 4 lie together as a package, the "scissors" formed by these struts 3 and 4 being largely closed.

Die Teilstücke 6 des Handlaufes 5 stehen nach oben weg, ebenso die Planken 2 der Fläche 1.The sections 6 of the handrail 5 project upwards, as do the planks 2 of the surface 1.

Zum Bilden der Brücke werden die Scheren geöffnet, so dass die Teilstücke 6 und die Planken 2 auseinander gezogen werden.To form the bridge, the scissors are opened so that the sections 6 and the planks 2 are pulled apart.

In der Endlage fährt ein Bolzen 10, welcher auch eine gelenkige Verbindung von zwei aufeinander folgenden Streben 3 und 4 bildet, in eine Ausnehmung 11 in dem Teilstück 6 ein und wird dort, nicht näher gezeigt, verriegelt.In the end position, a bolt 10, which also forms an articulated connection between two successive struts 3 and 4, moves into a recess 11 in the section 6 and is locked there, not shown in more detail.

Gleichzeitig befindet sich die Planke 2 mit ihrem freien Ende, an welchem Hülsenführungen 12 vorgesehen sind, auf der Höhe einer gelenkigen Verbindung zwischen Strebe 4 und Strebe 3, so dass durch eine Hülsenführung 13 dieser gelenkigen Verbindung und die Hülsenführungen 12 der Planke eine Stange 14 hindurch geschoben werden kann, welche die Planke 2 und die Streben 3 und 4 gegeneinander sichert.At the same time, the plank 2 with its free end, on which sleeve guides 12 are provided, is at the level of an articulated connection between strut 4 and strut 3, so that a rod 14 passes through a sleeve guide 13 of this articulated connection and the sleeve guides 12 of the plank can be pushed, which secures the plank 2 and the struts 3 and 4 against each other.
