Die Erfindung betrifft eine Schilderbrücke zur Verkehrsbeeinflussung über einer Fahrbahn nach dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruches 1.The invention relates to a gantry for traffic control over a roadway according to the preamble of claim 1.

Aus dem Magazin FORSTER AKTUELL, Ausgabe 1, 2001, ist auf den Seiten 6 bis 11 eine Schilderbrücke mit Wechselwegweiser für eine Verkehrsbeeinflussungsanlage offenbart, die in Doppelriegelbauweise mit Aufstiegshilfe ausgeführt ist. Ein begehbares, geschlossenes Wartungsgehäuse ist zwischen den Prismenwenderflächen und der Schilderbrücke angeordnet. Für das Wartungsgehäuse dienen als Trägerkonstruktion einzelne Stahlform-Rohrrahmen, deren Vertikalrohre einen entsprechend großen Abstand beinhalten, um eine Wartungsstegbreite von mindestens 600 mm zu ermöglichen. Diese verzinkten Rahmen sind im Innenbereich mittels Winkeln, rückseitig mit massiven, horizontal verlaufenden Formrohren und vorderseitig mit Hilfe von Diagonalversteifungen zu einem starren Stahlträgerskelett ausgeformt. Die Winkel werden außerdem als Auflager für die Gitterroste und als Aufnahme für die verstellbaren Riegelhalterungen verwendet. An der Vorderseite der Wegweiser sind Prismenwender konstruktiv angebracht. Die gesamte Konstruktion ist mit pulverbeschichtetem Aluminiumblech verkleidet. An der Frontseite sind weitere Verkleidungsbleche bzw. Großtafelelemente angebracht. Im Gehäuseinneren sind Antriebssteuerungen für die Prismenwender und Beleuchtungselemente installiert. Rückwärtig sind Riegelhalterungen positioniert und Aufnahmeprofile für einen massiven Montageträger verschraubt. Zur Montage wird zunächst ein Portal aufgestellt, dann die im Werk vormontierten und in der Mitte geteilten Wegweiser verschraubt und als ganzes mit Hilfe zweier Kräne an das Portal montiert.From the magazine FORSTER AKTUELL, Issue 1, 2001, on pages 6 to 11 a sign bridge with alternating directional sign for a traffic control system is disclosed, which is designed in double bolt construction with climbing aid. A walk-in, closed maintenance housing is located between the prism reversing surfaces and the gantry. For the maintenance housing serve as a support structure steel single tubular frame whose vertical tubes include a correspondingly large distance to allow a maintenance web width of at least 600 mm. These galvanized frames are formed in the interior by means of angles, on the back with massive, horizontally extending forming tubes and on the front side by means of diagonal reinforcements to form a rigid steel carrier skeleton. The brackets are also used as supports for the gratings and as supports for the adjustable locking brackets. On the front of the signpost prism turning are constructively attached. The entire construction is clad with powder-coated aluminum sheet. On the front side further cladding panels or large panel elements are attached. Inside the housing, drive controls for the prism inverters and lighting elements are installed. At the rear, bolt mounts are positioned and mounting profiles bolted to a solid mounting bracket. For installation, a portal is first set up, then screwed the factory pre-assembled and divided in the middle signpost and mounted as a whole with the help of two cranes to the portal.

Das Wartungsgehäuse dieser bekannten Schilderbrücke weist eine aufwendige Trägerkonstruktion auf und ist seitlich versetzt zu der durch das Portal aufgespannten Ebene an den Riegeln der Schilderbrücke befestigt. Die Prismenwender sind an der dem Portal abgewandten Gehäuseseite angebracht, so dass diese über das Wartungsgehäuse auf die Querriegel ein gegenläufiges Drehmoment übertragen. Die Montage dieser bekannten Schilderbrücke macht außerdem eine Vollsperrung einer Richtungsfahrbahn notwendig, wobei mittels einer Überleitung der Verkehr auf die Gegenfahrbahn geleitet wird. Dieser Gegenverkehrsbereich wird je Bauwerk für eine Nacht eingerichtet und in den Morgenstunden wieder rückgebaut.The maintenance housing this known gantry has an elaborate support structure and is laterally offset to the plane spanned by the portal level attached to the bars of the gantries. The prism reversers are mounted on the housing side facing away from the portal, so that they transmit an opposite torque via the maintenance housing on the crossbar. The installation of this known gantry also makes a full closure of a directional roadway necessary, which is passed by means of a transfer of traffic to the opposite lane. This oncoming traffic area is set up for each building for one night and dismantled in the morning hours.

Die DE 202 04 634 U1 offenbart einen Träger für Geräte und/oder Schilder zum Überspannen von Straßen, insbesondere Autobahnen, umfassend zwei Vertikalträger, die durch eine horizontale Trägerbrücke miteinander verbunden sind. Die horizontale Trägerbrücke besteht aus vier parallel zueinander verlaufenden horizontalen Stützstreben, die im Querschnitt ein Rechteck von mindestens 0,5 m Breite und 1,80 bis 2,50 m Höhe bilden. Die horizontalen Stützstreben sind durch fachwerkartige Diagonalverstrebungen und gegebenenfalls Querverstrebungen miteinander verbunden. Der Bereich zwischen den unteren horizontalen Stützstreben ist mit einem begehbaren Boden ausgestattet, so dass die horizontale Trägerbrücke durch Wartungspersonal für die Wartung von Geräten begangen werden kann, wofür Sicherheitsgeländer vorgesehen sind.The DE 202 04 634 U1 discloses a support for devices and / or signs for overstretching roads, especially highways, comprising two vertical beams interconnected by a horizontal beam bridge. The horizontal girder bridge consists of four mutually parallel horizontal struts, which form a rectangle of at least 0.5 m in width and 1.80 to 2.50 m in height. The horizontal struts are interconnected by truss-like diagonal struts and possibly cross braces. The area between the lower horizontal struts is provided with a walk-in floor so that the horizontal girder bridge can be accessed by maintenance personnel for the maintenance of equipment for which safety railings are provided.

Der Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Schilderbrücke sowie ein Verfahren zur Montage einer Schilderbrücke der eingangs genannten Art bereitzustellen, welche die vorgenannten Nachteile des Standes der Technik vermeiden.The invention is therefore based on the object, a gantry bridge and a method for mounting a gantry bridge of the type mentioned above, which avoid the aforementioned disadvantages of the prior art.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß gelöst durch eine gattungsgemäße Schilderbrücke mit dem kennzeichnenden Merkmal aus Patentanspruch 1 sowie durch ein Verfahren zur Montage gemäß Patentanspruch 8.This object is achieved by a generic sign bridge with the characterizing feature from claim 1 and by a method for mounting according to claim 8.

Indem bei der Schilderbrücke ein vom Querriegel (35) getragenes Wartungsgehäuse (40) vorgesehen ist, an dem der Fahrbahn (20) zugekehrte Anzeigeelemente (50) angeordnet sind und das begehbar und geschlossen ausgebildet ist, wobei der mindestens eine Querriegel (35) das Innere des Wartungsgehäuses (40) durchsetzt, wird der als Wartungssteg ausgebildete Querriegel in das Wartungsgehäuse integriert. Das Wartungsgehäuse ist damit nicht wie im Stand der Technik seitlich, sondern in der Portalebene angeordnet. Hierdurch sind die am Wartungsgehäuse angeordneten Anzeigeelemente näher am Torsionszentrum der Schilderbrücke, das heißt näher an den Querriegeln, angeordnet, was den Drehmomenteintrag durch die Anzeigeelemente in das Portal vermindert.In that a maintenance housing (40) carried by the transverse bar (35) is provided at the gantry, on which display elements (50) facing the carriageway (20) are arranged and which is accessible and closed, wherein the at least one transverse bar (35) is the interior of the maintenance housing (40) passes through, formed as a maintenance web crossbar is integrated into the maintenance housing. The maintenance housing is thus not laterally arranged as in the prior art, but in the portal plane. As a result, the display elements arranged on the maintenance housing are arranged closer to the torsion center of the gantries, that is, closer to the transverse girders, which reduces the torque input through the display elements into the gantry.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Schilderbrücke weist das Portal zwei übereinander angeordnete und als Wartungsstege ausgebildete Querriegel auf. In dieser Ausführungsform ist das Wartungsgehäuse zweistöckig ausgebildet und die Konstruktion des Portals in sich stabiler. Mit dem größeren Wartungsgehäuse geht eine größere Schilderfläche für Anzeigeelemente einher.In an advantageous embodiment of the sign bridge according to the invention, the portal has two superimposed and formed as maintenance webs cross bar.

Die geschlossene Ausbildung des Wartungsgehäuses ermöglicht dem Wartungspersonal eine vor Witterungseinflüssen geschützte Durchführung der Wartungsarbeiten. Der Aufbau des Wartungsgehäuses aus einer Mehrzahl von Lamellenelementen ist ohne aufwendige Trägerkonstruktion möglich und einfach an den Querriegeln vormontierbar. Die Lamellenelemente bilden Seiten- und Rückwände des Wartungsgehäuses, die durch seitliches Abkanten eine Verbindungsfläche zum daran anschließenden Lamellenelement sowie eine weitere Verbindungsfläche zu den Querriegeln aufweisen.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the maintenance housing of the gantries is formed closed and constructed from a plurality of fin elements. The closed design of the maintenance housing allows the maintenance personnel a protected from weather conditions performing maintenance. The structure of the maintenance housing of a plurality of fin elements is possible without expensive support structure and easy pre-assembled on the crossbars. The lamellar elements form side and rear walls of the maintenance housing, which have a connecting surface to the adjoining lamellar element as well as a further connection surface to the crossbars by laterally folding.

Vorzugsweise sind die Lamellenelemente oberflächenbehandelt, insbesondere lackiert oder pulverbeschichtet. Hierdurch können die Lamellenelemente und damit das Wartungsgehäuse gegen die Witterungseinflüsse beständig gemacht werden.Preferably, the lamellar elements are surface-treated, in particular painted or powder-coated. As a result, the lamellar elements and thus the maintenance housing can be made resistant to the weather.

In einer vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung der erfindungsgemäßen Schilderbrücke sind die Seitenstützen auf je ein Fundament mit Anprallsockel aufgestellt. Die Fundamente können seitlich der Fahrbahn ohne Unterbrechung des Verkehrsflusses gesetzt werden. Die Fundamente weisen zum Schutz der Stahlkonstruktion des Portals einen Anprallsockel auf.In an advantageous embodiment of the gantry invention, the side supports are each set up on a foundation with impact base. The foundations can be set to the side of the road without interrupting the flow of traffic. The foundations have an impact pad to protect the steel structure of the portal.

In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung können die Anzeigeelemente Anzeigetafeln, faseroptischen Wechselverkehrszeichen, Anzeigen in Prismentechnik und freiprogrammierbaren LCD-Textzeilen oder eine Kombination daraus umfassen. Mit Vorteil sind Antriebe und andere elektrische Komponenten für die Anzeigeelemente geschützt innerhalb des geschlossenen Wartungsgehäuses unterbringbar.In a preferred embodiment of the invention, the display elements may include scoreboards, variable-frequency fiber optic traffic signs, prismatic and programmable LCD text line displays, or a combination thereof. Advantageously, drives and other electrical components for the display elements protected within the closed maintenance housing can be accommodated.

In einer weiteren vorteilhaften Ausführungsform der erfindungsgemäßen Schilderbrücke ist an einer Seitenstütze des Portals eine Aufstiegshilfe zu einem Wartungssteg angeordnet. Hierdurch wird die Begehbarkeit des Wartungsgehäuses über eine Leiter, die längs einer Seitenstütze bis auf die Höhe des obersten Querriegels führt, und den zum Gehäuse führenden Wartungssteg ermöglicht.In a further advantageous embodiment of the sign bridge according to the invention, a climbing aid to a maintenance web is arranged on a side support of the portal. As a result, the accessibility of the maintenance housing via a ladder, which leads along a side support up to the height of the uppermost crossbar, and the leading to the housing maintenance bridge.

Bei der Montage einer erfindungsgemäßen Schilderbrücke wird nun folgendermaßen verfahren:When assembling a gantry according to the invention, the following procedure is now carried out:

Zunächst werden an den Fahrbahnseiten die Fundamente gesetzt und darauf die Seitenstützen aufgestellt, was ohne Unterbrechung des laufenden Verkehrs möglich ist. Ebenfalls ohne Verkehrsunterbrechung oder -umlenkung auf die Gegenfahrbahn ist dann abseits der Fahrbahn eine Vormontage des Wartungsgehäuses mit als Wartungsstegen ausgebildeten Querriegeln möglich. Die vormontierte Baueinheit wird schließlich unter nur kurzzeitiger Verkehrsunterbrechung durch Befestigen der Querriegel an den Seitenstützen des Wartungsgehäuses über der Fahrbahn endmontiert.First, the foundations are placed on the carriageway sides and placed on the side supports, which is possible without interrupting the current traffic. Also without traffic interruption or deflection on the opposite lane then off the carriageway, a pre-assembly of the maintenance housing with trained as maintenance webs cross bars is possible. The preassembled unit is finally finally assembled with only short-term traffic interruption by attaching the crossbars on the side supports of the maintenance housing on the roadway.

Eine erfindungsgemäße Schilderbrücke 10 zur Verkehrsbeeinflussung über einer Fahrbahn 20 umfasst gemäß FIG 1 ein Portal 30 mit integriertem Wartungsgehäuse 40, welches Anzeigeelemente 50 trägt. Das Portal 30 ist aus zwei vertikalen Seitenstützen 32 und zwei übereinander angeordneten, horizontalen Querriegeln 35 gebildet. Jede Seitenstütze 32 ist auf ein neben der Fahrbahn 20 gesetztes Fundament 33 mit Anprallsockel 34 aufgestellt. Zur Stabilisierung des Portals 30 sind die Querriegel 35 über an Knotenflächen befestigte Diagonalträger 36 und Vertikalträger 37 verbunden. Das begehbare, geschlossene Wartungsgehäuse 40 integriert erfindungsgemäß mit Vorteil die Querriegel 35, die als Wartungsstege 42 ausgebildet sind. Die als Profilträger ausgebildeten Querriegel 35 durchsetzen das Innere des Wartungsgehäuses 40, so dass das Wartungspersonal die Oberseite der Querriegel 35 als Wartungsstege 42 benutzen kann. Einerseits entfällt hierdurch ein zusätzliches als Wartungssteg ausgebildetes Bauteil, andererseits wird eine Drehmoment-eintragende, seitliche Anordnung des Wartungsgehäuses neben dem Portal 30 vermieden. Im Ausführungsbeispiel gemäß FIG 1 sind zwei etwa baugleiche, zweigeschossige Wartungsgehäuse 40 vorgesehen, deren Rück-und Seitenwände aus einer Mehrzahl von Lamellenelementen 44 aufgebaut sind. FIG 1 zeigt eine Rückansicht der erfindungsgemäßen Schilderbrücke 10, also mit Blickrichtung entgegen der Verkehrsrichtung von Fahrbahn 20. Die Vorderseite eines Wartungsgehäuses 40 wird durch Anzeigeelemente 50 gebildet, die über vertikal verlaufende Rohre 47 an den Querriegeln 35 festgesetzt sind. Die Anzeigeelemente 50 umfassen Anzeigetafeln sowie Anzeigen in Prismentechnik, für die Antriebe 51 (vgl. FIG 2) vorgesehen sind. Zusätzlich oder alternativ können die Anzeigeelemente 50 auch faseroptische Wechselverkehrszeichen und freiprogrammierbare LCD-Textzeilen umfassen. An der in FIG 1 links dargestellten Seitenstütze 32 ist eine als Leiter ausgebildete Aufstiegshilfe 38 angeordnet, über die die Wartungsstege 42 erreicht werden können. Von dieser Seitenstütze 32 ist längs der Wartungsstege 42 ein seitlich angeordneter Handlauf 43 bis zum jeweiligen Wartungsgehäuse 40 vorgesehen. Über dem Wartungsgehäuse 40 sind als Leuchten ausgebildete Signaleinrichtungen 52 zur Markierung der Schilderbrücke 10 für Verkehrsteilnehmer bei schlechten Sichtverhältnissen oder besonderen Verkehrsbedingungen angeordnet.A sign bridge 10 according to the invention for influencing traffic over a roadway 20 comprises according to FIG FIG. 1 a portal 30 with integrated maintenance housing 40, which carries display elements 50. The portal 30 is formed of two vertical side supports 32 and two stacked horizontal crossbars 35. Each side support 32 is placed on a set next to the roadway 20 foundation 33 with impact base 34. To stabilize the portal 30, the transverse bars 35 are connected via diagonal brackets 36 and vertical beams 37 fastened to node surfaces. The walk-in, closed maintenance housing 40 integrated according to the invention with advantage the cross bar 35, which are designed as maintenance bars 42. Trained as a profile carrier cross bar 35 pass through the interior of the maintenance housing 40 so that the maintenance personnel can use the top of the cross bar 35 as maintenance bars 42. On the one hand, this eliminates an additional designed as a maintenance bridge component, on the other hand, a torque-bearing, lateral arrangement of the maintenance housing next to the portal 30 is avoided. In the embodiment according to FIG. 1 two approximately identical, two-storey maintenance housing 40 are provided, the rear and side walls are composed of a plurality of lamellar elements 44. FIG. 1 shows a rear view of the sign bridge 10 according to the invention, that is viewed in the opposite direction to the traffic direction of lane 20. The front of a maintenance housing 40 is formed by display elements 50 which are fixed via vertically extending tubes 47 to the cross bars 35. The display elements 50 include display panels as well as displays in prism technology, for the drives 51 (see FIG. FIG. 2 ) are provided. Additionally or alternatively, the display elements 50 may also include fiber optic variable message signs and freely programmable LCD text lines. At the in FIG. 1 Left side support 32 shown is arranged as a ladder trained climbing aid 38, via which the maintenance webs 42 can be achieved. Of this Side support 32 is provided along the maintenance webs 42 a laterally arranged handrail 43 to the respective maintenance housing 40. Above the maintenance housing 40, signaling devices 52 designed as luminaires are arranged for marking the sign bridge 10 for road users in poor visibility conditions or special traffic conditions.

FIG 2 zeigt von der erfindungsgemäßen Schilderbrücke 10 den Abschnitt der Querriegel 35, der in die nebeneinander angeordneten Wartungsgehäuse 40 integriert ist. In dieser längs der Linie II-II aus FIG 1 geschnittenen Draufsicht erkennt man die Breite der als Wartungsstege 42 ausgebildeten Querriegel 35, wobei die Wartungsgehäuse 40 über Türen 45 an den schmalen Seiten zugänglich sind. Die geschlossene Bauweise der Wartungsgehäuse 40 wird durch großflächige, oberflächenbehandelte Lamellenelemente 44 an Rück- und Seitenwänden sowie durch Anzeigeelemente 50 an den Vorderseiten erreicht, wobei Vorder- und Rückseiten der Wartungsgehäuse 40 auf gegenüberliegenden Seiten der Querriegel 35 angeordnet sind. Hierdurch erreicht man eine statisch günstige Anordnung der Wartungsgehäuse 40 im Wesentlichen in der durch das Portal 30 der Schilderbrücke 10 aufgespannten Ebene. Die Befestigung der Anzeigeelemente 50 erfolgt über eine Mehrzahl an vertikal verlaufenden Rohren 47, während die Lamellenelemente 44 direkt an den Querriegeln 35 festgesetzt sind. Hierzu sind gemäß FIG 4, die das Detail IV aus FIG 2 vergrößert darstellt, die vertikalen Seitenkanten der Lamellenelemente 44 derart winklig abgekantet, dass je zwei benachbarte Lamellenelemente 44 deckungsgleich aneinander liegende Flächen aufweisen, an welchen sie untereinander und an den Querriegeln 35 befestigt sind. Hierdurch ergibt sich ein einfacher Aufbau des Wartungsgehäuses 40, welches an den Querriegeln 35 vormontierbar ist.

In this along the line II-II off FIG. 1 cut plan view can be seen the width of the trained as maintenance webs 42 cross bar 35, wherein the maintenance housing 40 are accessible via doors 45 on the narrow sides. The closed design of the maintenance housing 40 is achieved by large-area, surface-treated lamellar elements 44 on rear and side walls and by display elements 50 on the front sides, with the front and rear sides of the maintenance housing 40 are arranged on opposite sides of the cross bar 35. This achieves a statically favorable arrangement of the maintenance housing 40 substantially in the plane spanned by the portal 30 of the gantry 10 level. The attachment of the display elements 50 via a plurality of vertically extending tubes 47, while the lamellar elements 44 are fixed directly to the crossbars 35. These are in accordance with FIG. 4 that made the detail IV FIG. 2 represents enlarged, the vertical side edges of the lamellar elements 44 bent at an angle so that each two adjacent lamellar elements 44 have congruent surfaces lying against each other, to which they are attached to each other and to the crossbars 35. This results in a simple construction of the maintenance housing 40, which is preassembled on the crossbars 35.

In FIG 3 ist eine Schnittdarstellung längs der Linie III-III aus FIG 1 der erfindungsgemäßen Schilderbrücke 10 dargestellt. Diese Seitenansicht zeigt die zweigeschossige Ausbildung des Wartungsgehäuses 40 mit den als Wartungsstege 42 ausgebildeten Querriegeln 35, die den Innenraum des Wartungsgehäuses 40 durchsetzen und seitlich an den Seitenstützen 32 festgesetzt sind. Rück- und Seitenwände sowie das Dach des Wartungsgehäuses 40 sind aus einer Mehrzahl an Lamellenelementen 44 aufgebaut, während die Vorderseite durch über vertikale Rohre 47 am Portal 30 befestigte Anzeigeelemente 50 gebildet wird. Durch die Integration der Querriegel 35 in das Wartungsgehäuse 40 wird eine portalnahe Anordnung der Anzeigeelemente 50 erreicht, wodurch die Torsionsbelastung des Portals 30 wesentlich kleiner als im Stand der Technik ist. Zur Wartung der Signaleinrichtung 52 sind im Dach des Wartungsgehäuses 40 Klappen 46 vorgesehen, über die Zugriff auf die Signaleinrichtung 52 ermöglicht wird.In FIG. 3 is a sectional view taken along the line III-III FIG. 1 the gantry invention 10 shown. This side view shows the two-storey training of the maintenance housing 40 with the trained as a maintenance webs 42 cross bars 35 which pass through the interior of the maintenance housing 40 and are fixed laterally on the side supports 32. Rear and side walls and the roof of the maintenance housing 40 are constructed from a plurality of lamellar elements 44, while the front side is formed by display elements 50 fastened to the portal 30 via vertical tubes 47. By integrating the crossbars 35 in the maintenance housing 40, a portal-near arrangement of the display elements 50 is achieved, whereby the torsional load of the portal 30 is substantially smaller than in the prior art. For the maintenance of the signal device 52, flaps 46 are provided in the roof of the maintenance housing 40, via which access to the signal device 52 is made possible.

Die Montage einer erfindungsgemäßen Schilderbrücke 10 ist weniger zeitaufwendig und greift in den Verkehrsfluss weniger stark ein als dies im Stand der Technik der Fall war. Ohne den Verkehrsfluss überhaupt zu beeinträchtigen, werden am vorgesehenen Aufstellungsort zunächst an den Seiten der Fahrbahn 20 Fundamente 33 gesetzt und darauf die Seitenstützen 32 des Portals 30 aufgestellt. Das Wartungsgehäuse 40 ist ebenfalls abseits der Fahrbahn 20 an die als Wartungsstege 42 ausgebildeten Querriegel 35 vormontiert. Dieses Bauteil kann dann in einem Arbeitsgang durch kurzzeitige Sperrung der Fahrbahn 20, beispielsweise 15 Minuten, mit Hilfe von Kränen über die Fahrbahn 20 eingeschwenkt und durch Befestigen der Querriegel 35 an den Seitenstützen 32 endmontiert werden.The mounting of a gantry invention 10 is less time consuming and interferes less in the flow of traffic than was the case in the prior art. Without impairing the flow of traffic at all, foundations 33 are placed on the sides of the carriageway 20 on the intended site, and the side supports 32 of the portal 30 are set up thereon. The maintenance housing 40 is also preassembled off the roadway 20 formed on the service webs 42 crossbar 35. This component can then be pivoted in one operation by short-term blocking of the roadway 20, for example 15 minutes, with the help of cranes on the lane 20 and endmontiert by attaching the cross bar 35 on the side supports 32.
