Abstract

Each of several shelves (13) has several sector shaped segments (20). The segments move on race (12) by running gear (32). The running gear is formed as retainer for retaining the segment against radial removal from the race.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Rundregal mit einer zentralen Säule, die in übereinander angeordneten Etagen Fachböden trägt, wobei jeder Fachboden aus mehreren sektorförmigen Segmenten besteht, die einzeln aufgehängt sind.The invention relates to a round shelf with a central column, which carries in shelves arranged on top of shelves, each shelf consists of several sector-shaped segments, which are suspended individually.

Ein in EP 0 211 816 B1 beschriebenes Rundregal weist eine zentrale Säule auf, die in unterschiedlichen Etagen Fachböden trägt. Jeder Fachboden ist an einer drehbar auf der Säule angebrachten zentralen Nabe montiert, so dass der Fachboden insgesamt drehbar ist. Jeder Fachboden ist in sektorförmige Segmente unterteilt, die einzeln radial herausgezogen werden können. Zwischen zwei Segmenten kann eine Einfüllöffnung zum Befüllen des Fachbodens der darunter liegenden Etage vorgesehen sein. Die Fachböden fallen zum äußeren Rand hin ab. Gegenstände, die auf einem Fachboden liegen, gleiten aufgrund der Schwerkraft zum äußeren Rand hin, wo sie entnommen werden können.An in EP 0 211 816 B1 described Rundregal has a central pillar, which carries shelves in different floors. Each shelf is mounted on a rotatably mounted on the column central hub, so that the shelf is rotatable as a whole. Each shelf is divided into sector-shaped segments that can be individually pulled out radially. Between two segments, a filling opening for filling the shelf of the be provided below the floor. The shelves fall off towards the outer edge. Objects lying on a shelf slide by gravity to the outer edge where they can be removed.

Der Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1 geht aus von einem Rundregal, das in DE-A-2046362 beschrieben ist. Dieses Rundregal weist eine Säule auf, an der mit Lagerbuchsen Lagerringe gelagert sind, welche ihrerseits radial abstehende Segmente tragen, welche die Schalen zur Aufnahme von Gegenständen bilden. Die Segmente sind in mehreren Etagen angeordnet, wobei jede Etage mit einer von der Säule abstehenden Ringscheibe versehen ist, auf der Laufrollen, die an der Unterseite des Segments gelagert sind, abrollen. Hierbei bilden die Laufrollen ein Laufwerk des Segments, während die Lagerringe eine Haltevorrichtung zum Sichern des Segments gegen radiales Entfernen von der Säule bilden. Die Lagerringe sind mit den zugehörigen Lagerbuchsen sowie einer weiteren Lagerbuchse für die Ringscheibe zu einem Stapel geschichtet, der die Säule rohrförmig umgibt. Einzelne Elemente können von diesem Stapel nur abgenommen werden, indem zuvor die darüber liegenden Elemente abgenommen wurden. Die Vorrichtung hat einen komplizierten Aufbau.The preamble of claim 1 is based on a round shelf, the in DE-A-2046362 is described. This round rack has a column on which bearing bushes bearing rings are mounted, which in turn carry radially projecting segments, which form the trays for receiving objects. The segments are arranged in several levels, each floor being provided with an annular disc projecting from the column, on which rollers, which are mounted on the underside of the segment, roll off. Here, the rollers form a drive of the segment, while the bearing rings form a holding device for securing the segment against radial removal from the column. The bearing rings are stacked with the associated bearing bushes and another bearing bush for the annular disc to form a stack which surrounds the column tubular. Individual elements can only be removed from this stack by removing the elements above them. The device has a complicated structure.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein Rundregal zu schaffen, bei dem das Reinigen, Befüllen oder Entleeren der Segmente einer Etage durchführbar ist, ohne dass irgendwelche anderen Segmente derselben Etage oder einer anderen Etage des Rundregals zuvor entfernt werden müssten.The invention has for its object to provide a round shelf, in which the cleaning, filling or emptying of the segments of a floor is feasible without any other segments of the same floor or another floor of the round shelf would have to be removed beforehand.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist ein Rundregal mit einer zentralen Säule, die in übereinander angeordneten Etagen Fachböden trägt, vorgesehen, wobei jeder Fachboden aus mehreren sektorförmigen Segmenten besteht, die einzeln drehbar aufgehängt sind, wobei jedes Segment einzeln, also unabhängig von den anderen Segmenten, in das Rundregal einsetzbar bzw. aus diesem herausnehmbar ist. Hierbei besteht ein wesentlicher Vorteil darin, dass die Segmente derselben Etage jeweils einzeln herausgenommen werden können, beispielsweise um sie zu reinigen, zu befüllen oder zu entleeren, ohne dass irgendwelche Segmente derselben Etage oder einer anderen Etage des Rundregals zuvor entfernt werden müssten. Wesentlich hierbei ist, dass die Segmente völlig unabhängig voneinander in das Rundregal eingesetzt sind und einzeln entfernt werden können, ohne dass ein anderes Segment mitbetroffen wäre.According to the invention, a round shelf is provided with a central column supporting shelves in superimposed levels, each shelf consisting of several sector-shaped segments which are individually rotatably suspended, each segment individually, ie independently of the other segments, in the Can be used round shelf or removable from this. Here, a significant advantage is that the segments of the same floor can be taken out individually, for example, to clean, fill or empty them without having to remove any segments of the same floor or another floor of the round rack beforehand. It is essential here that the segments are inserted completely independently of one another into the round rack and can be removed individually, without affecting another segment.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die Segmente derselben Etage an der Säule einzeln drehbar aufgehängt sind, so dass durch Drehen von Segmenten relativ zueinander wählbar ist, zwischen welchen benachbarten Segmenten die Öffnung gebildet wird. Durch die Einzelaufhängung der Segmente wird die Variabilität innerhalb derselben Etage vergrößert. Der Fachboden besteht nicht aus einem zusammenhängenden Einzelteil, sondern aus relativ zueinander um die Säule herum drehbaren Segmenten. Mit einer Drehung um nur wenige Winkelgrade kann somit die Öffnung an jeder beliebigen Winkelposition des Rundregals erzeugt werden. Der maximal zu drehende Winkel hängt von der Größe bzw. Anzahl der Segmente ab. Der Benutzer hat die Möglichkeit, das Regal durch Erzeugung der Öffnung zwischen benachbarten Segmenten an jeder beliebigen Stelle zu öffnen, wobei jeweils nur eine geringe Drehung des gesamten Fachbodens erfolgen muss, die maximal etwa dem halben Umfangswinkel eines Segments entspricht. Dadurch, dass die Positionierung der Öffnung nur relativ geringe Drehungen erfordert, werden mehrere Personen, die gleichzeitig auf das Regal zugreifen, nicht wesentlich gestört.According to the invention, it is provided that the segments of the same floor are individually suspended rotatably on the column, so that by rotating segments relative to one another, between which adjacent segments the opening is formed. The individual suspension of the segments increases the variability within the same floor. The shelf is not a contiguous item, but from relative to each other around the column rotatable segments. With a rotation by only a few degrees, the opening can thus be generated at any desired angular position of the round rack. The maximum angle to be rotated depends on the size or number of segments. The user has the opportunity to open the shelf by creating the opening between adjacent segments at any point, in each case only a small rotation of the entire shelf must be made, which corresponds to a maximum of about half the circumferential angle of a segment. The fact that the positioning of the opening requires only relatively small rotations, several people who access the shelf at the same time, not significantly disturbed.

Unter dem Begriff "Rundregal" ist ein Regal zu verstehen, das eine zentrale Säule aufweist, die Fachböden in unterschiedlichen Etagen trägt, wobei die Fachböden um die Säule herum drehbar sind. Die Fachböden müssen nicht notwendigerweise rund sein. Es ist beispielsweise auch möglich, dass sie eine vieleckige oder ovale Außenform haben.The term "round shelf" is understood to mean a shelf having a central pillar supporting shelves on different floors, the shelves being rotatable about the pillar. The shelves do not necessarily have to be round. For example, it is also possible that they have a polygonal or oval outer shape.

Das erfindungsgemäße Rundregal eignet sich als Verkaufsregal zur Aufnahme zahlreicher kleinerer Gegenstände. Ein typisches Anwendungsgebiet sind Apotheken, wo eine Vielzahl von kleinformatigen Produkten verkauft werden, die möglichst nahe an der Bedienungsperson angeordnet werden müssen, um schnell zugänglich zu sein. Aber auch für andere Geschäfte oder andere Anwendungen als dem Einzelhandelsbereich ist das Rundregal geeignet. Es hat den Vorteil, dass auf einer geringen Grundfläche eine große Vielzahl von Produkten gelagert und leicht zugänglich zur Verfügung gestellt wird.The round shelf according to the invention is suitable as a sales shelf for receiving numerous smaller items. A typical field of application is pharmacies, where a large number of small-format products are sold, which must be arranged as close as possible to the operator in order to be quickly accessible. But also for other businesses or other applications than the retail sector, the round shelf is suitable. It has the advantage that stored on a small footprint a large variety of products and is made easily accessible.

Die Einzelaufhängung der Segmente bietet den Vorteil, dass jedes Segment einzeln herausgenommen und ausgewechselt oder gereinigt werden kann. Es besteht auch die Möglichkeit, Segmente auf einfache Weise gegeneinander zu vertauschen, beispielsweise, wenn zwei Segmente, die ähnliche Produkte enthalten, nebeneinander angeordnet werden sollen.The individual suspension of the segments offers the advantage that each segment can be removed and replaced or cleaned individually. It is also possible to swap segments in a simple manner, for example, when two segments containing similar products to be juxtaposed.

Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass die Säule für jede Etage einen Laufring aufweist, an dem die Segmente jeweils mit einem Laufwerk ablaufen. Gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass ein Laufwerk nur am radial inneren Ende des Segments angeordnet ist.According to a preferred embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the column has a race for each floor, on which run the segments each with a drive. According to a preferred embodiment of the invention it is provided that a drive is arranged only at the radially inner end of the segment.

In vorteilhafter Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass das Segment von dem Laufwerk nach Art eines Kragarmes nach außen absteht. Hierbei bildet das Laufwerk die einzige Stütze des Segments, das radial frei von der Säule absteht. Hierdurch ergibt sich ein übersichtlicher Aufbau des Regals, dessen Inhalt unbehindert einsehbar ist.In an advantageous embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the segment protrudes from the drive in the manner of a cantilever to the outside. Here, the drive is the only support of the segment, which protrudes radially free of the column. This results in a clear structure of the shelf, the contents of which is freely visible.

Der Laufring besteht vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff und er ist an der aus Stahl bestehenden zentralen Säule befestigt. Ein derartiger Laufring erlaubt ein geräuscharmes Bewegen der Segmente. Die Laufwerke der Segmente können obere und untere Laufrollen aufweisen, wobei die oberen Laufrollen an einer Innenbahn und die unteren Laufrollen an einer Außenbahn des Laufringes abrollen. Vorzugsweise sind zwei obere und zwei untere Laufrollen vorgesehen, um sicherzustellen, dass das Segment kippfrei gehalten wird. Die Segmente stehen von den Laufwerken auslegerartig frei nach außen ab. Daher muss das Laufwerk jedes Segments imstande sein, dieses Segment einschließlich der darauf befindlichen Waren stabil zu tragen.The race is preferably made of plastic and it is attached to the existing steel central column. Such a race allows a quiet movement of the segments. The drives of the segments may have upper and lower rollers, the upper rollers on one Roll the inner track and the lower rollers on an outer track of the raceway. Preferably, two upper and two lower rollers are provided to ensure that the segment is held tilt-free. The segments are cantilever-like outward from the drives. Therefore, the drive of each segment must be able to stably support this segment, including the goods thereon.

Vorzugsweise ist vorgesehen, dass benachbarte Segmente durch auseinanderziehbare Haltevorrichtungen haftend verbunden sind. Hierdurch wird sichergestellt, dass die einzelnen Segmente sich nicht unbeabsichtigt gegeneinander verdrehen, so dass die Öffnung stets an derselben Stelle und in voller Größe erhalten bleibt.It is preferably provided that adjacent segments are adhesively connected by means of retractable holding devices. This ensures that the individual segments do not unintentionally rotate against each other, so that the opening always remains in the same place and in full size.

Zur Erleichterung des Herausnehmens oder auch des Einsetzens eines Segments ist gemäß einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform der Erfindung ein Aushebewerkzeug vorgesehen, welches an einen der Laufringe ansetzbar ist und eine Abstützung für das darüber angeordnete Segment bildet. Dieses Segment kann dann um die Abstützung herum gekippt werden, so dass sein Laufwerk von dem Laufring entfernt werden kann. Auf diese Weise ist es möglich, selbst beladene Segmente auf einfache Weise zu entfernen oder einzusetzen.To facilitate the removal or even the insertion of a segment, a lifting tool is provided according to a preferred embodiment of the invention, which is attachable to one of the races and forms a support for the segment arranged above. This segment can then be tilted around the support so that its drive can be removed from the race. In this way it is possible to easily remove or insert self-loaded segments.

Im Folgenden wird unter Bezugnahme auf die Zeichnungen ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung näher erläutert.In the following an embodiment of the invention will be explained in more detail with reference to the drawings.

Das Rundregal weist einen auf dem Boden stehenden Fuß 10 auf, von dem eine zentrale Säule 11 aufragt. Die Säule 11 besteht aus einem Rohr oder einem beliebigen anderen Profilstab aus Metall. An der Säule 11 sind in unterschiedlichen Höhen in regelmäßigen Abständen Laufringe 12 befestigt, die die Säule umgeben. Die Laufringe bestehen vorzugsweise aus Kunststoff. Sie sind fest und unverdrehbar mit der Säule 11 verbunden. Jeder Laufring trägt einen Fachboden 13, wobei die Fachböden Etagen in unterschiedlichen Höhen bilden. Die Fachböden 13 sind mit vertikalen Abständen angeordnet und parallel zueinander. Sie sind kegelstumpfförmig ausgebildet und fallen von dem Laufring 12 zum äußeren Ende hin ab. Am äußeren Ende befindet sich eine Umfangswand 14 zur Abstützung der in dem Rundregal gestapelten Gegenstände 15, die durch Schwerkraft gegen die Umfangswand 14 gedrückt werden.The round shelf has a standing on the ground foot 10, from which a central pillar 11 rises. The column 11 consists of a tube or any other metal profile bar. On the pillar 11 at different heights at regular intervals races 12 are attached, which surround the column. The races are preferably made of plastic. They are firmly and non-rotatably connected to the column 11. Each race carries a shelf 13, the shelves forming floors at different heights. The shelves 13 are arranged at vertical intervals and parallel to each other. They are frusto-conical and fall from the raceway 12 to the outer end. At the outer end is a peripheral wall 14 for supporting the stacked in the round shelf items 15, which are pressed by gravity against the peripheral wall 14.

Über dem obersten Fachboden 13 befindet sich ein Dach 16, das am oberen Ende der Säule 11 befestigt ist, und den Fachboden mit Abstand bedeckt, um das Eindringen von Staub zu verhindern. Das Rundregal ist übermannshoch.Above the uppermost shelf 13 is a roof 16 which is secured to the upper end of the column 11 and which covers the shelf at a distance to prevent ingress of dust. The round shelf is superior to him.

Fig. 2 zeigt eine Draufsicht auf einen Fachboden 13. Der Fachboden setzt sich aus mehreren Segmenten 20 zusammen, die um die Säule 11 herum angeordnet sind. Jedes der sektorförmigen Segmente weist eine Bodenplatte 21 auf sowie zwei gegenüberliegende radiale Seitenwände 22,23 und eine den Segmentumfang bildende Umfangswand 14, die die Seitenwände 22,23 verbindet. Die Bodenplatte 21 endet mit Abstand von der Säule 11 in einer Innenkante 24. Die Innenkante 24 begrenzt einen offenen Freiraum 25. Fig. 2 shows a plan view of a shelf 13. The shelf is composed of a plurality of segments 20 which are arranged around the column 11 around. Each of the sector-shaped segments has a bottom plate 21 and two opposite radial side walls 22, 23 and a peripheral wall 14 forming the segment periphery, which connects the side walls 22, 23. The bottom plate 21 terminates at a distance from the column 11 in an inner edge 24. The inner edge 24 defines an open space 25th

Bei dem vorliegenden Ausführungsbeispiel sind sechs Segmente 20 vorgesehen. Jedes Segment erstreckt sich über einen Umfangswinkelbereich von weniger als 60 Grad. Alle sechs Segmente schließen gemeinsam einen Umfangswinkel von 345 Grad ein. Es verbleibt also eine sektorförmige Öffnung 19 von 15 Grad. Diese Öffnung dient zum Befüllen des Fachbodens der jeweils darunter liegenden Etagen.In the present embodiment, six segments 20 are provided. Each segment extends over a circumferential angle range of less than 60 degrees. All six segments together enclose a circumference angle of 345 degrees. So there remains a sector-shaped opening 19 of 15 degrees. This opening is used to fill the shelf of each underlying floors.

An den Seitenwänden 22,23 der Segmente 20 sind Haltevorrichtungen vorgesehen, die jeweils aus einem Magneten 26 an dem einen Segment und einer Gegenplatte 27 an dem benachbarten Segment bestehen. Der Magnet 26 zieht die Gegenplatte 27 an und bewirkt eine haftende Verbindung der Segmente, wenn diese gegeneinander gesetzt sind. Auf diese Weise wird verhindert, dass die Öffnung 19 sich umfangsmäßig verteilt.On the side walls 22,23 of the segments 20 holding devices are provided, each consisting of a magnet 26 on one segment and a counter-plate 27 on the adjacent segment. The magnet 26 attracts the backing plate 27 and causes an adhesive connection of the segments when they are set against each other. In this way, the opening 19 is prevented from being distributed circumferentially.

An den Segmenten sind Grifforgane 28 vorgesehen, die mit Abstand außen um die Umfangswand 14 umlaufen. Die Grifforgane 28 bestehen aus jeweils einer gebogenen Stange. Der Abstand von der Umfangswand 14 ist so groß, dass man mit den Fingern einer Hand hindurchgreifen kann, so dass der Daumen gegen die Biegung 28a des Handgriffs des benachbarten Segments drücken kann, um dieses relativ zu dem mit der Hand ergriffenen Segment zu verschieben bzw. zu drehen. Jedes Segment enthält in der Bodenplatte 21 zwei sektorförmige Reihen von Schlitzen 29,30 auf unterschiedlichen Radien. In diesen Schlitzen können Fachteiler 31 befestigt werden (Fig. 3). Hierbei handelt es sich um radial oder parallel zu einer Seitenwand 22,23 ausgerichtete Zwischenwände zum Getrennthalten von Gegenständen 15, die in dem Regal abgelegt sind.Grip elements 28 are provided on the segments, which rotate at a distance around the peripheral wall 14 at a distance. The gripping members 28 each consist of a bent rod. The distance from the peripheral wall 14 is so large that one can reach through with the fingers of one hand, so that the thumb can press against the bend 28 a of the handle of the adjacent segment to move this relative to the hand-gripped segment or to turn. Each segment contains in the bottom plate 21 two sector-shaped rows of slots 29, 30 at different radii. In these slots compartment divider 31 can be attached ( Fig. 3 ). These are radially or parallel to a side wall 22,23 aligned intermediate walls for the separation of objects 15, which are stored in the shelf.

Am inneren Ende jedes Segments 20 befindet sich ein Laufwerk 32, das mit dem betreffenden Laufring 12 der Säule zusammengreift. Das Laufwerk, das in Fig. 4 dargestellt ist, weist einen generell U-förmigen Haltebügel 33 auf, dessen im Wesentlichen horizontale Seitenschenkel obere Laufrollen 34 und untere Laufrollen 35 tragen. Die oberen Laufrollen 34 laufen entlang einer Innenbahn 36, die an einem nach oben vorstehenden Rand 41 des Laufrings 12 gebildet ist. Dieser Rand wird von dem Haltebügel 33 übergriffen. Die unteren Laufrollen 35 laufen entlang einer kreisförmigen Außenbahn 37 des Laufringes 12. Die Außenbahn 37 wird durch eine Ringschulter 38 begrenzt, über der ein Freiraum 39 zum Anheben der Laufrollen 35 vorgesehen ist. Das Laufwerk bildet die einzige Tragvorrichtung für das Segment und zugleich eine Haltevorrichtung zur Sicherung gegen radiales Entfernen des Segments. Von dem Laufwerk 32 steht das Segment nach Art eines Kragarmes oder Auslegers frei ab. Das betreffende Segment 20 kann von dem zentralen Laufring 12 abgenommen werden, indem es angehoben wird, wobei die oberen Laufrollen 34 in Kontakt mit der Innenbahn 36 bleiben, während die unteren Laufrollen 35 von der Außenbahn 37 abheben. In diesem Zustand kann das Segment leicht angehoben werden, um von dem Laufring 12 freizukommen und dann radial zur Säule 11 herausgezogen zu werden. Das Einsetzen des Segments erfolgt im leicht angehobenen Zustand, wobei die oberen Laufrollen 34 über den aufragenden Vorsprung des Laufringes 12 geschoben werden, während die unteren Laufrollen 35 in den Freiraum 39 eindringen. Dann wird das Laufwerk 32 abgesenkt, so dass die Laufrollen an ihren jeweiligen Bahnen zur Anlage kommen. Der Laufring 12 ist mit radialen Klemmschrauben 40 an der Säule 11 unverrückbar fixiert.At the inner end of each segment 20 is a drive 32 which engages with the respective race 12 of the column. The drive that is in Fig. 4 is shown, has a generally U-shaped headband 33, carry the substantially horizontal side legs upper rollers 34 and lower rollers 35. The upper rollers 34 run along an inner track 36 which is formed on an upwardly projecting edge 41 of the raceway 12. This edge is overlapped by the headband 33. The lower rollers 35 run along a circular outer track 37 of the race 12. The outer web 37 is bounded by an annular shoulder 38, over which a clearance 39 is provided for lifting the rollers 35. The drive is the only supporting device for the segment and at the same time a holding device for securing against radial removal of the segment. Of the drive 32, the segment is free in the manner of a cantilever or boom. The respective segment 20 can be removed from the central race 12 by being raised, with the upper rollers 34 remaining in contact with the inner track 36, while the lower rollers 35 are raised from the outer track 37. In this state, the segment can be easily lifted to come free from the race 12 and then pulled radially to the column 11. The insertion of the segment takes place in the slightly raised state, wherein the upper rollers 34 are pushed over the protruding projection of the race 12, while the lower rollers 35 penetrate into the free space 39. Then the drive 32 is lowered, so that the rollers come to rest on their respective tracks. The race 12 is fixed immovably with radial clamping screws 40 on the column 11.

Wie aus Fig. 3 hervorgeht, weist das Laufwerk 32 zwei obere Laufrollen 34 auf, die nebeneinander angeordnet sind. Darunter hat das Laufwerk zwei ebenfalls nebeneinander angeordnete untere Laufrollen 35. Diese paarweise Anordnung der Laufrollen bewirkt eine Kippfreiheit des Segments 20.How out Fig. 3 As can be seen, the drive 32 has two upper rollers 34, which are arranged side by side. Below this, the drive has two likewise juxtaposed lower rollers 35. This paired arrangement of the rollers causes a tilting freedom of the segment 20th

Durch Drehen eines Segments 20 um die Säule 11 werden alle anderen Segmente mitgedreht. Darüber hinaus ist es möglich, die Öffnung 19 durch Drehen einzelner Segmente zwischen zwei beliebig auswählbare Segmente zu verlegen, ohne dass die Öffnung durch Drehen der gesamten Etage an die gewünschte Stelle gebracht werden müsste. Jedes einzelne Segment ist leicht herausnehmbar bzw. auswechselbar, ohne dass ein anderes Segment derselben Etage oder einer anderen Etage entfernt werden müsste.By turning a segment 20 around the column 11 all other segments are rotated. In addition, it is possible to move the opening 19 by rotating individual segments between two arbitrarily selectable segments, without the opening would have to be brought by turning the entire floor to the desired location. Each segment is easily removable or replaceable without having to remove another segment of the same floor or another floor.

Fig. 5 zeigte eine perspektivische Darstellung des Aushebewerkzeugs 45. Dieses weist einen langgestreckten Arm 46 auf, dessen Länge größer ist als der Radius des Rundregals. Der Arm 46 kann an jedem der Laufringe 12 eingehakt werden, um dasjenige Segment 20, das an dem darüber angeordneten Laufring angebracht ist, aus diesem Laufring auszuheben. Das Aushebewerkzeug ist an seinem einen Ende mit einem Stützhaken 47 versehen, der nach unten offen ist. Der Stützhaken 47 kann in den oberen Rand 41 des Laufringes 12 eingehakt werden. Unterhalb des Stützhakens 47 weist der Arm eine Abstützung 48 auf, die sich unmittelbar an der Säule 11 abstützt. Ein seitliches Kippen des Aushebewerkzeugs 45 wird durch die Abstützung 48 verhindert. Auf diese Weise wird der Arm 46 auslegerartig an dem Laufring 12 festgehalten. Die Kante des Armes 46 bildet im montierten Zustand eine im Wesentlichen horizontale Gleitfläche 49a. Daran schließt sich eine schräg abfallende äußere Gleitfläche 49b an. Der Übergang zwischen beiden Gleitflächen 49a und 49b bildet ein Auflager 50, auf dem das darüber angeordnete Segment aufsitzen kann und das als Schwenklager zum Ausheben des Laufwerks 32 dieses Segments dient. Das auszuhebende Segment wird geringfügig angehoben bevor das Aushebewerkzeug 45 darunter gesetzt wird. Dadurch kommen die unteren Laufrollen 35 von der Außenbahn 37 frei (Fig. 4). Dann wird der äußere Rand des auszuhebenden Segments niedergedrückt, wodurch das Laufwerk 32 angehoben wird bis die oberen Laufrollen 34 über den Rand 41 hinweggleiten können. Nunmehr gleitet das Segment auf der schrägen Gleitfläche 49b. Fig. 5 showed a perspective view of the Aushebewerkzeugs 45. This has an elongated arm 46 whose length is greater than the radius of the round rack. The arm 46 may be hooked to each of the races 12 to lift that segment 20 attached to the overlying race from that race. The lifting tool is provided at its one end with a support hook 47 which is open at the bottom. The support hook 47 can be hooked into the upper edge 41 of the race 12. Below the support hook 47, the arm has a support 48, which is supported directly on the column 11. A lateral tilting of the Aushebewerkzeugs 45 is prevented by the support 48. In this way, the arm 46 is cantilevered to the raceway 12. The edge of the arm 46 forms a substantially horizontal sliding surface 49a in the mounted state. This is followed by an obliquely sloping outer sliding surface 49b. The transition between the two sliding surfaces 49a and 49b forms a support 50, on which the segment arranged above can sit and which serves as a pivot bearing for lifting the drive 32 of this segment. The segment to be excavated is lifted slightly before the lifting tool 45 is placed underneath. As a result, the lower rollers 35 are free of the outer web 37 ( Fig. 4 ). Then, the outer edge of the segment to be lifted is depressed, which lifts the drive 32 until the upper rollers 34 can slide over the edge 41. Now the segment slides on the inclined sliding surface 49b.

Am äußeren Ende des Armes 46 befindet sich eine kreisbogenförmige Auflage 51, die T-förmig nach entgegengesetzten Seiten des Armes absteht. Diese Auflage 51 stellt sicher, dass das auszuhebende Segment nicht von der Gleitfläche 49b des schmalen Armes 46 seitlich abkippt. An der Auflage 51 befinden sich tragende Anschläge 52 für den äußeren Rand des Segments, um ein radiales Abgleiten des Segments von dem Arm 46 zu vermeiden.At the outer end of the arm 46 is a circular arc-shaped support 51 which projects T-shaped to opposite sides of the arm. This support 51 ensures that the segment to be lifted does not tip off laterally from the sliding surface 49b of the narrow arm 46. On the support 51 are bearing stops 52 for the outer edge of the segment to prevent radial sliding of the segment from the arm 46.
