Die Erfindung betrifft ein Verbindungselement zum mechanischen Verbinden von Bauteilen oder dgl. mit den Merkmalen des Oberbegriffs des Anspruchs 1.The invention relates to a connecting element for mechanically connecting components or the like. With the features of the preamble of claim 1.
Derartige Verbindungselemente sind beispielsweise aus DE 10026 769 A1 bekannt. Dabei wird im Rahmen einer Vormontage an jedes von zwei zu verbindenden Bauteilen oder dgl. je eine Kupplungshälfte mittels Schrauben befestigt.

Innerhalb derSuch connecting elements are known for example from DE 10026 769 A1. In the course of a pre-assembly, a coupling half is fastened to each of two components to be connected or the like by means of screws. The coupling halves are engaged to connect the components. For this purpose, they have a centering device with wedge-shaped or conical engagement elements. Within the
Kupplungshälften sind außerdem Leitungsverbindungselemente für Wasser, Gas, Elektrizität oder dgl. angeordnet, so dass beim mechanischen Verbindung gleichzeitig eine Medienverbindung hergestellt wird. Bei extrem schweren Bauteilen, wie z. B. Wänden im Fertighausbau, müssen die Verbindungselemente sehr hohe Lasten aufnehmen. Aufgrund von Unebenheiten der Bodenplatte kann es vorkommen, dass eine komplette Wand im Einbauzustand von zwei benachbarten Wänden getragen wird. Neben diesen Gewichtskräften treten erhebliche Trägheitskräfte sowie Stöße bei der Montage der Fertighauswände auf. Grundsätzlich spielt die erforderliche Zeit zur Montage eine wichtige Rolle.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein hochstabiles Verbindungselement zu schaffen, das eine schnelle Montage der zu verbindenden Bauteile erlaubt, insbesondere in Kombination mit den aus DE 10026 769 A1 bekannten Verbindungselementen.The invention has for its object to provide a highly stable connecting element that allows quick assembly of the components to be connected, especially in combination with the connecting elements known from DE 10026 769 A1.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Die Kupplungshälften weisen Rohrstücke auf, die aufgrund unterschiedlicher Querschnitte ineinandersteckbar sind. Dabei können beispielsweise genormte Vierkant-Rohre aus Stahl verwendet werden. Im Sinne der Erfindung steht der Begriff „Rohrstücke" gleichbedeutend für sämtliche Teile, deren Querschnitte für eine Längsführung geeignet sind, also beispielsweise auch die Kombination eines Flachstahls, I-, C- oder T-Profils mit einem Rohrstück, wobei dieses selbstverständlich auch einen Längsschlitz entsprechend einer Profilschiene aufweisen kann oder auf eine oder mehrere Ösen reduziert sein kann. Weiterhin sind Nut-/Feder-Querschnitte umfasst, die aufgrund einer Hinterschneidung für eine Längsführung geeignet sind. Wälz- oder Schmiersysteme können diese Führungseigenschaft unterstützen.This object is achieved according to the invention by the features of claim 1. The coupling halves have pipe sections that are due to different cross sections are nestable. For example, standardized square tubes made of steel can be used. For the purposes of the invention, the term “pipe sections” is synonymous for all parts whose cross sections are suitable for longitudinal guidance, that is to say, for example, also the combination of a flat steel, I, C or T profile with a pipe section, which of course also has a longitudinal slot can have according to a profile rail or can be reduced to one or more eyelets. Furthermore, tongue and groove cross-sections are included which are suitable for longitudinal guidance due to an undercut. Rolling or lubrication systems can support this guiding property.
Die Rohrstücke sind schräg zur Anlagefläche der Bauteile angeordnet. Beim Einführen der Rohrstücke ineinander erfolgt damit eine kombinierte Bewegung der Bauteile senkrecht und parallel zu deren Anlageflächen. Der Einführweg wird nicht durch die Kupplungshälften begrenzt, sondern endet, sobald sich die Bauteile mit ihren Anlageflächen berühren. Die Kupplungshälften sind so an den Bauteilen angeordnet, dass an dem feststehenden Bauteil die Kupplungshälfte mit schräg nach oben stehendem Rohrstück befestigt ist, während das zu fügende andere Bauteil ein nach unten weisendes Rohrstück aufweist. Beim Fügen der Bauteile kann damit die Schwerkraft des zu fügenden Bauteils genutzt werden. Durch die schräge Anordnung der Rohrstücke werden die Bauteile zwangsgeführt und sitzen mit ihren Anlageflächen schließlich satt aneinander. Gegenüber Verbindungselementen, die eine Fügerichtung senkrecht oder parallel zu den Anlageflächen vorsehen, ergibt sich damit der Vorteil, dass die Bauteile nach dem Fügen nicht noch gesondert verspannt werden müssen. Werden die erfindungsgemäßen Verbindungselemente in Kombination mit den aus DE 100 26 769 A1 bekannten Verbindungselementen verwendet, so ergibt sich als weitererThe pipe sections are arranged at an angle to the contact surface of the components. When the pipe pieces are inserted into each other, the components are moved vertically and parallel to their contact surfaces. The insertion path is not limited by the coupling halves, but ends as soon as the components touch with their contact surfaces. The coupling halves are arranged on the components in such a way that the coupling half is fastened to the fixed component with an obliquely upward tube piece, while the other component to be joined has a tube piece pointing downward. When joining the components, the gravity of the component to be joined can be used. Due to the oblique arrangement of the pipe sections, the components are positively guided and finally sit snugly against one another with their contact surfaces. Compared to connecting elements that provide a joining direction perpendicular or parallel to the contact surfaces, there is the advantage that the components do not have to be braced separately after joining. If the connecting elements according to the invention are used in combination with the connecting elements known from DE 100 26 769 A1, the result is another
Vorteil, dass die erfindungsgemäßen Verbindungselemente während und nach dem Fügen die Gewichts- und Fügekräfte aufnehmen, während die Verbindungselemente aus DE 100 26 769 A1 entlastet werden und damit schwächer ausgelegt werden können. Durch die Zwangsführung der erfindungsgemäßen Verbindungselemente werden auch die Verbindungselemente aus DE 10026 769 A1 derart aufeinander zu bewegt, dass deren Zentriervorrichtungen allenfalls eine geringe Ausgleichsbewegung, verbunden mit geringen Kräften, bewirkt.Advantage that the connecting elements according to the invention absorb the weight and joining forces during and after the joining, while the connecting elements from DE 100 26 769 A1 are relieved and can therefore be designed to be weaker. Due to the positive guidance of the connecting elements according to the invention, the connecting elements from DE 10026 769 A1 are also moved towards one another in such a way that their centering devices at most bring about a slight compensating movement combined with low forces.
In einer bevorzugten Ausführung weist das Rohrstück mit kleinerem Querschnitt eine Einführkappe auf. Durch die hierdurch entstehenden Einführschrägen lassen sich die Kupplungshälften auch bei sehr groben Positioniermöglichkeiten leicht fügen. Dies ist beispielsweise beim Verbinden von Wänden im Fertighausbau wichtig, da hier unter Umständen sehr große Wandelemente an einem Kran hängend gefügt werden müssen.In a preferred embodiment, the pipe section with a smaller cross section has an insertion cap. Due to the resulting bevels, the Join the coupling halves easily even with very rough positioning options. This is important, for example, when connecting walls in prefabricated house construction, since very large wall elements may have to be attached to a crane.
Zur schrägen Anbringung der Rohrstücke an den Bauteilen weisen die Kupplungsh lften in einer bevorzugten Ausführung keilförmige Sockel, beispielsweise aus Kunststoff, auf, die die Rohrstücke tragen. Die Befestigung der Kupplungshälften an den Bauteilen erfolgt über Schrauben. Um einen direkten Kraftfluss von den Rohrstücken über die Schrauben in das jeweilige Bauteil zu erreichen, kommen die Schraubenköpfe an der dem Bauteil zugewandten Innenseite der Rohrstücke zur Anlage und reichen durch dieIn a preferred embodiment, the coupling halves have wedge-shaped bases, for example made of plastic, for carrying the pipe sections obliquely on the components, which support the pipe sections. The coupling halves are fastened to the components using screws. In order to achieve a direct flow of force from the pipe sections via the screws into the respective component, the screw heads come to rest on the inside of the pipe sections facing the component and extend through the
Sockel bis in das Bauteil.Base right into the component.
Um die Verbindung der beiden Bauteile quer zur Fügerichtung der Verbindungselemente justieren zu können, beispielsweise zum Ausgleich fertigungsbedingter Ungenauigkeiten, weist eine Ausführungsform der Erfindung zwischen den Rohrstücken ein Justierelement auf mit Verschiebemitteln quer zur Längsrichtung der Rohrstücke. Hierdurch kann die Position des inneren Rohrstücks gegenüber dem äußeren Rohrstück noch beim Fügen der Bauteile justiert werden. Vorzugsweise weist das Justierelement einen kappenförmig gebogenen Blechstreifen auf, der neben der Justierfunktion auch eine Fügefunktion im Sinne der oben genannten Einführkappe aufweist. AlsIn order to be able to adjust the connection of the two components transversely to the joining direction of the connecting elements, for example to compensate for manufacturing inaccuracies, an embodiment of the invention has an adjusting element between the pipe pieces with displacement means transverse to the longitudinal direction of the pipe pieces. As a result, the position of the inner pipe section relative to the outer pipe section can still be adjusted when the components are joined. The adjusting element preferably has a sheet-metal strip bent in the form of a cap, which in addition to the adjusting function also has a joining function in the sense of the insertion cap mentioned above. As
Verschiebemittel werden zwei Bolzen mit einem Gewinde vorgeschlagen, die beispielsweise durch eine Gleitlagerung im Blechstreifen gelagert sind und deren Gewinde in Gewindebohrungen des inneren Rohrstücks eingreifen.. Durch außen angeordnete Werkzeugangriffsmittel, wie beispielsweise ein Innensechskant, sind die Bolzen drehbar. Durch das Verdrehen des Bolzens verschiebt sich das Justierelement gegenüber dem Rohrstück.Moving means two bolts with a thread are proposed, which are supported, for example, by a slide bearing in the sheet metal strip and whose threads engage in threaded bores of the inner tube piece. The bolts can be rotated by means of externally arranged tool engagement means, such as, for example, a hexagon socket. By turning the bolt, the adjusting element moves relative to the pipe section.
Um einen möglichst kurzen Kraftfluss sowie geringe Momentenwirkungen zwischen den Kupplungshälften zu erreichen, weist eine bevorzugte Ausführung der Erfindung einen aufsteckbaren Kraftrichtungsgeber auf. Dieser ist derart am äußeren Rohrstück angeordnet, dass das innere Rohrstück, das im Bereich des Kraftrichtungsgebers anliegt, Kräfte dort überträgt, wo das äußere Rohrstück diese am besten aufnehmen kann, also beispielsweise an seinem dem inneren Rohrstück zugewandten Ende. Vorzugsweise sind die Kraftrichtungsgeber einfache U-förmig gebogene Blechteile. Die Erfindung wird nachfolgend anhand dreier in der Zeichnung dargestellter Ausführungsbeispiele näher erläutert. Es zeigen:In order to achieve the shortest possible flow of force and minimal torque effects between the coupling halves, a preferred embodiment of the invention has an attachable force direction sensor. This is arranged on the outer pipe section in such a way that the inner pipe section, which rests in the area of the force transducer, transmits forces where the outer pipe section can best accommodate them, for example, at its end facing the inner pipe section. The force direction sensors are preferably simple sheet metal parts bent in a U-shape. The invention is explained in more detail below using three exemplary embodiments shown in the drawing. Show it:

Das in Figur 1 gezeigte Verbindungselement 1 dient der Verbindung der beiden Bauteile 2 und 3, beispielsweise zwei bei einem Fertighausbau zu verbindende Wände. Es besteht aus den beiden Kupplungshälften 4 und 5, die mittels Schrauben 6 an dem jeweiligen Bauteil 2, 3 befestigt sind. Beide Kupplungshälften 4, 5 weisen je ein Rohrstück 7, 8 auf, die von keilförmigen Sockeln 9, 10 aus einem hochfesten Kunststoff getragen werden. Die Rohrstücke 7, 8 sind genormte Vierkant-Rohre aus Stahl, die einen unterschiedlichen Querschnitt aufweisen und ineinander steckbar sind.The connecting element 1 shown in FIG. 1 serves to connect the two components 2 and 3, for example two walls to be connected in a prefabricated house. It consists of the two coupling halves 4 and 5, which are fastened to the respective component 2, 3 by means of screws 6. Both coupling halves 4, 5 each have a pipe section 7, 8, which are supported by wedge-shaped bases 9, 10 made of a high-strength plastic. The pipe sections 7, 8 are standardized square pipes made of steel, which have a different cross section and can be plugged into one another.
Zum Verbinden der beiden Bauteile 2, 3 werden die Kupplungshälften 4, 5 zunächst mittels der Schrauben 6 im Rahmen einer Vormontage an den Bauteilen 2, 3 befestigt. Dazu werden die Schrauben 6 durch die Aussparungen 11 gesteckt und kommen beim Eindrehen schließlich mit Ihrem Schraubenkopf 12 an den Innenseiten 13, 14 zur Anlage. Zum eigentlichen Fügen der Bauteile 2, 3 wird die Kupplungshälfte 5 mit demTo connect the two components 2, 3, the coupling halves 4, 5 are first attached to the components 2, 3 by means of the screws 6 as part of a pre-assembly. For this purpose, the screws 6 are inserted through the recesses 11 and finally come into contact with their screw head 12 on the inner sides 13, 14 when screwed in. For the actual joining of the components 2, 3, the coupling half 5 with the
Rohrstück 8 größeren Querschnitts über die Kupplungshälfte 4 mit dem Rohrstück 7 kleineren Querschnitts geschoben. Dabei dient die Einführkappe 15 der Bildung von Fügeschrägen. Beim Fügen der Bauteile 2, 3 machen diese eine kombinierte Bewegung senkrecht und parallel bezogen auf ihre Anlageflächen 16. Die Fügebewegung wird durch Schwerkraft unterstützt und ist im Moment der Berührung der Anlageflächen 16 abgeschlossen. Die Kupplungshälften 4, 5 sind in diesem Zustand aufgrund ihrer Keilwirkung und der Schwerkraft miteinander verspannt.Pipe section 8 with a larger cross section pushed over the coupling half 4 with the pipe section 7 with a smaller cross section. The insertion cap 15 is used to form bevels. When the components 2, 3 are joined, they make a combined movement perpendicular and parallel with respect to their contact surfaces 16. The joining movement is supported by gravity and is completed when the contact surfaces 16 come into contact. The coupling halves 4, 5 are clamped together in this state due to their wedge action and gravity.
Figur 2 zeigt die Rohrstücke 7a, 8 eines zweiten Ausführungsbeispiels im Schnitt. Zwischen den Rohrstücken 7a, 8 ist ein Justierelement 17 angeordnet. Das Justierelement 17 weist einen kappenförmig gebogenen Blechstreifen 18 sowie zwei als Bolzen 19 ausgeführte Verschiebemittel auf. Die Bolzen 19 weisen ein Gewinde 20 und beidseitig je einen Innensechskant 21 als Werkzeugangriffsmittel auf. Sie sind jeweils in Bohrungen 22 des Blechstreifens gelagert und greifen in Gewindebohrungen 23 des inneren Rohrstücks 7a ein. Solange die Rohstücke 7a, 8 noch nicht im Eingriff sind, können die Bolzen 19 parallel verdreht und dadurch der Blechstreifen 18 gegenüber dem inneren Rohrstück 7a quer zu dessen Längsrichtung verschoben werden. Da das Justierelement 17 wiederum in das äußere Rohrstück 8 gefügt wird, kann beispielsweise gezielt der dargestellte Versatz A der Mittelachsen eingestellt werden.Figure 2 shows the pipe sections 7a, 8 of a second embodiment in section. An adjusting element 17 is arranged between the pipe sections 7a, 8. The Adjustment element 17 has a cap-shaped sheet metal strip 18 and two displacement means designed as bolts 19. The bolts 19 have a thread 20 and an internal hexagon 21 on both sides as a tool engagement means. They are each stored in bores 22 of the sheet metal strip and engage in threaded bores 23 of the inner pipe section 7a. As long as the raw pieces 7a, 8 are not yet in engagement, the bolts 19 can be rotated in parallel and thereby the sheet metal strip 18 can be displaced transversely to the longitudinal direction of the inner pipe piece 7a. Since the adjusting element 17 is in turn inserted into the outer tube piece 8, the offset A of the central axes shown can be set in a targeted manner, for example.
Figur 3 zeigt ein weiteres Ausführungsbeispiel des erfindungsgemäßen Verbindungselements 1b. Es besteht aus den beiden Kupplungshälften 4b und 5b. Beide Kupplungshälften 4b, 5b weisen je ein Rohrstück 7b, 8b auf, wobei das Rohrstück 7b als Flachstahl mit Einführschrägen 24 ausgeführt ist. Die Rohrstücke 7b, 8b werden wiederum von keilförmigen Sockeln 9b, 10b aus Kunststoff getragen. Auf die der anderen Kupplungshälfte 4b zugewandten Ränder 25 des äußeren Rohrstücks 8b sind Kraftrichtungsgeber 26 in Form U-förmig gebogener Blechteile aufgesteckt. Diese bewirken, dass die zwischen den Kupplungshälften wirkenden Kräfte in deren unmittelbarer Nähe übertragen werden und hierdurch insbesondere größere Hebelwirkungen vermieden werden. Figure 3 shows a further embodiment of the connecting element 1b according to the invention. It consists of the two coupling halves 4b and 5b. Both coupling halves 4b, 5b each have a pipe section 7b, 8b, the pipe section 7b being designed as a flat steel with insertion bevels 24. The pipe sections 7b, 8b are in turn supported by wedge-shaped bases 9b, 10b made of plastic. Force transducers 26 in the form of sheet metal parts bent in a U-shape are attached to the edges 25 of the outer tube section 8b facing the other coupling half 4b. These have the effect that the forces acting between the coupling halves are transmitted in their immediate vicinity and in this way in particular greater leverage effects are avoided.
