Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a supporting element for bricks that are dried while being supported thereon, comprising a plate with downwardly extending plate edges, between which plate edges a stiffening section extends, which stiffening section is connected to the plate at spaced-apart points of attachment on the bottom side of the plate.
  • Such a plate is generally known, it is used in the brick industry for placing green bricks of clay or loam thereon.
  • the stiffening section is spot-welded to the plate.
  • the plate supporting the green bricks is subsequently taken to a drying space for drying the clay or loam.
  • the plates with the green bricks of clay or loam are taken to a kiln, where they are baked into bricks.
  • a major problem that occurs with the supporting elements that are currently being used is that the plate and the stiffening section vibrate against one another during handling and transport, which causes noise nuisance. Especially when large numbers of plates are being handled and transported, as is the case in the brick industry, this leads to objectionable noise. In the course of time several attempts have been made to solve this problem.
  • a supporting element for drying bricks which provides a solution for the above problem, at least partially so, and which reduces the amount of noise nuisance to a considerable degree.
  • this object is accomplished by a supporting element as referred to in the introduction, wherein a spacer is provided between two points of attachment so as to keep the stiffening section spaced from the plate between said two points of attachment. Since spacers push the plate and the stiffening section away from each other between the two points of attachment, contact between the plate and the stiffening section is not entirely prevented but considerably reduced. After all, the spacer has a damping effect on the vibration of both the plate and the stiffening section, as a result of which both the duration and the amplitude of the vibrations that occur during handling and transport are significantly reduced.
  • the Belgium patent BE 558649 discloses a support element according to the preamble of claim 1 and a method of manufacturing such a support element according to the preamble of claim 8.
  • German patent application DE 35 38 096 A1 discloses a supporting plate for drying stones which plate is provided with legs which keep the supporting plate at a distance from the underground at which the device is positioned.
  • the supporting plate is provided with ribs at the bottom side of the supporting plate to make the supporting plate more rigid.
  • the spacer functions as a means of attachment, and the location at which the spacer is present between the plate and the stiffening section can be regarded as a point of attachment.
  • This special embodiment provides a supporting element for bricks being dried while being supported thereon, comprising a plate with downwardly extending plate edges, between which plate edges a stiffening section extends, which stiffening section is connected to the plate at spaced-apart points of attachment on the bottom side of the plate, wherein a spacer is provided as a means of attachment at at least one point of attachment for attaching the stiffening section to the plate and keeping it spaced therefrom.
  • a suitable variant to this special embodiment is an embodiment in which the point of attachment extends a certain length, for example at least substantially the entire length of the stiffening section.
  • the invention relates to a supporting element for bricks being dried while being supported thereon, comprising a plate with downwardly extending plate edges, between which plate edges a stiffening section extends along a certain length, which stiffening section is connected to the plate at spaced-apart points of attachment on the bottom side of the plate, which means of attachment comprise at least one spacer for keeping the stiffening section spaced from the plate at least substantially along the length thereof.
  • the stiffening section is preferably an elongated section having a U-shaped cross-section, the ends of the legs of the stiffening section being flanged to form section edges used for connecting the stiffening section to the plate.
  • the U-shape imparts a sufficient degree of rigidity to the supporting element to prevent the plate from deflecting under the load of the bricks.
  • the bricks are comparatively heavy on account of the water that is present in the clay or the loam.
  • the section edges extend parallel to the plate and thus provide a projecting surface for interconnecting the plate and the stiffening sections. If the ends of the legs furthermore extend away from each other, it will be easier to handle the section when connecting it to the plate.
  • a spacer is provided between respective pairs of adjacent points of attachment of a section edge. It will be understood that in this way the damping effect of the spacer will be greatest.
  • the spacer is preferably made of a resilient material. Although hard materials effectively reduce noise pollution as well, in that they push the plate and the stiffening section apart, a resilient material will provide an even better damping effect.
  • the spacer is preferably resistant against repeated temperature fluctuations in the range from about 0 °C to about 120 °C. This ensures that the properties of the material will be retained after a number of drying and baking cycles of bricks on the plate.
  • a spacer comprises elements made of plastic material.
  • plastics that have been good vibration damping properties, and the elements can be fitted between the plate and the stiffening section in a simple manner. Once the plate and the stiffening section are interconnected, the force that is exerted on the elements by the plate and the stiffening section may already suffice for holding the plastic elements in their clamped-down position. It is also possible to bond the plastic elements to the plate and/or the stiffening section or attach them in another manner.
  • the spacer comprises a filler material, for example a suitable putty or a suitable foam material such as PUR.
  • a suitable filler material is easy to provide on the plate or the stiffening section and, after possible curing, will have a damping effect on the vibration of the stiffening section relative to the plate.
  • the spacer comprises a tape. Tape, too, is easy to provide and can be affixed to the plate or in the stiffening section relatively long before the plate and the stiffening section are interconnected, without any of the desired properties noticeably deteriorating.
  • the present invention further relates to a method for manufacturing a supporting element, comprising the steps of forming the plate and connecting the stiffening section to the bottom side of the plate, wherein a spacer is provided on the plate and/or the section edges, between two spot welds to be formed, prior to said connecting step.
  • Providing the spacer in advance is easy because both the plate and the section edges are readily accessible. Especially in those cases where the spacer is provided on the section edges, a correct positioning will moreover be easy to realise. Only the positions of the points of attachment to be subsequently formed need to be taken into account in that case.
  • a local difference in level is provided in the plate and/or the stiffening section for positioning the spacer.
  • the local difference in level provides a marker point that helps to position the spacer correctly.
  • local differences in level help to prevent spacers from being displaced during the period between the provision of the spacers and the connection of the stiffening section to the plate.
  • the supporting plate 1 consists of a perforated plate 2, which is provided with upright edges 3 at the long sides and the short sides, which edges enable a good circulation of air via the bottom side of the plate during the drying process of bricks (not shown) that are present on the supporting plate.
  • a U-shaped section 4 extends along the length of the brick drying plate 1, the ends of the legs of said U-shape being bent outwards at right angles so as to form edges 5. The section 4 prevents the plate 2 from deflecting when bearing the weight of the stones before or after drying.
  • the section 4 is connected to the plate 2 by means of spot welds 6.
  • Figure 2 is a longitudinal sectional view of a part of the brick drying plate 1 of figure 1 along the line II-II, in which a spacer, in this case in the form of a plate 7 of plastic material is shown to be present between the plate 2 and the edge 5 of the section, between two adjacent spot welds 6a and 6b.
  • a spacer in this case in the form of a plate 7 of plastic material is shown to be present between the plate 2 and the edge 5 of the section, between two adjacent spot welds 6a and 6b.
  • Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view of a part of the brick drying plate 1 of figure 1 , along the line III-III in said figure. This figure clearly shows that the section 4 has two edges 5, and that a plate 7 of plastic material is provided between the section 4 and the plate 2 at every edge 5.
  • Figures 4 and 5 are a longitudinal sectional view and a cross-sectional view (along the line V-V), respectively, of a supporting plate 11 comprising a plate 12 and a section 14 that is attached to the plate 12 at points of attachment by means of putty 18.
  • the putty 18 consists of an elastic material and as such also functions as a spacer.
  • Figures 6 and 7 are a longitudinal sectional view and a cross-sectional view (along the line VII-VII), respectively, of a supporting plate 21 comprising a plate 22 and a section 24 that is attached to the plate 22 at points of attachment by means of putty 28.
  • the putty 28 consists of an elastic material and as such also functions as a spacer.
