Description

The invention relates to a guide on traffic routes according to the preamble of claim 1. Such a guide device has a device for opening / closing a passage in the guide.

From the DE 10 2005 029 886 A1 a guide is known with a device for opening / closing a passage in the guide, said guide having a stationary part and a displaceable part which can be inserted into the stationary part has. This device has the disadvantage that the displaceable part - for example, when expanded due to the effect of heat - can easily tilt in the stationary part and thus a pushing in or pushing out of the displaceable part is no longer possible. It is also provided in the context of this device to stabilize the displaceable part by anchored in the ground post.

From the EP 0 758 698 A1 For example, there is known a highway centerline guide having a stationary member and at least one modular movable member connected thereto, the movable member having means for anchoring to the ground. When using several movable elements, these are among themselves connected with joints, so that a passage in the guide can be opened by successively folding away individual movable elements. This guide has the disadvantage that, depending on the size of the movable elements used numerous connection joints are necessary, which can be causes of malfunction. It is also provided in this device to anchor each individual movable element by an anchoring means with the ground, so that a corresponding processing of the substrate is necessary.

The present invention has for its object to provide a guide on traffic routes with a device for opening / closing a passage in the guide, in which the opening / closing of the passage is simple and trouble-prone.

This object is achieved by a guide with the features of claim 1. Accordingly, the guide device has a device for opening or closing a passage in the guide, wherein the device has two leaves, which can be opened. For this purpose, the leaves are each pivotally mounted about a pivot axis to a connecting device. The gate leaves form a gate which, when opened, clears a passage in the guide. Furthermore, the leaves are releasably connected to each other, including means are provided at the ends of the leaves, which are remote from the respective connecting devices.

Preferably, the leaves can be rotated by up to 180 ° to the connecting device or the pivot axis, so that they can be secured on the one hand in the open state of the gate on the rear side of adjacent vanes and on the other hand, a barrier-free passage is formed.

The connecting device is formed in a variant of the invention directly to a guide element of the guide, which is firmly anchored by support elements in the ground. Depending on the substrate, different anchoring methods such as, for example, a concreting or a ramming of the carrier elements can be used.

A particular advantage of an embodiment of the invention lies in the fact that no support elements anchored in the ground are arranged on the door leaves themselves. As a result, the leaves can be integrated without major structural measures in the guide; a complex introduction of carrier elements in the underground is eliminated. This also has the advantage that the leaves can be opened quickly and easily, if necessary, without first having to remove carrier elements. Due to the means for releasably connecting the two leaves with each other a very high stability of the door formed by the gates is still achieved, whereby the guide complies with the overall requirements placed on them in terms of stability and road safety.

In order to allow a better rolling or sliding of the leaves on the ground and at the same time to divert a portion of the dead weight of the gate to the ground and thus relieve the connecting devices, at least one sliding device is preferably arranged on each gate.

The sliding device is preferably arranged closer to the end remote from the connecting device of the door leaf than at the end of the connecting device facing end to achieve a more favorable leverage of the door leaf on the sliding device. It is conceivable that the sliding devices - for example, to meet certain background conditions - are arranged on both leaves not at respectively comparable positions, but at different points of the respective door leaf. Nevertheless, a comparable with respect to their relative position on the door leaf arrangement of the sliding devices on the respective door leaves is generally preferred.

For an increased stability of the gate, these preferably each have two superimposed guide rails or crash barriers. In order to increase the stability of the gate even further, the two guide rails are preferably interconnected by, for example, mounted transversely to the guide rails coupling elements. As a result, among other things, the torsional stiffness of the gate is improved.

In order to provide a force transmission between the two leaves and to allow a safe closing of the leaves, the two leaves are preferably arranged to each other that their remote from the connecting device end arranged oblique faces parallel to each other and are in contact, if the Gate formed by the gate is closed. By this flush closing both leaves a wall is formed by the two end faces of the gate.

In a preferred variant of the invention, each gate on its side facing away from the connecting device in the longitudinal direction of the door leaf or opposite end has an end face or end face which connects two side surfaces of the gate with each other, wherein the angle of the end face with the first Side surface includes, greater than or less than 90 ° and the angle that includes the front side with the second side surface, is correspondingly smaller or larger than 90 °. Since the two side surfaces are parallel to each other, the sum of angles of said angles is 180 °. By deviating from 90 ° angle, an oblique course of the end face is achieved by one to the other side surface of the door leaf.

To open the door, it is preferably necessary that first one and then the other door leaf must be pivoted from its position corresponding to the closed gate. This predetermined sequence results, for example, at a corresponding angle between the end face and the side surfaces of the door leaf, that is, at a corresponding slope of the front page. Such necessary for the opening of the gate order is then also for the closing of the gate, when the leaves are already in a position which is almost equal to that they occupy when the gate is closed. With a larger opening angle of the leaf, however, the design of the front side plays no role in the further order of pivoting the leaf.

For a simple and rapid connection of the two wings together, the means for releasably connecting the leaves preferably comprise a closure device which is pushed by a receptacle formed by the first and the second gate when the gate is closed and thereby substantially parallel to the Side surfaces of the two wings extends. In this case, the connecting device engages through the two end faces of the gate and the wall formed by the end faces. Particularly preferred as a connecting device used in the Leiteinrichtungsbereich standard element such as a pipe is used.

In order to prevent the closure device unintentionally releasing itself from the connection region between the two door wings, whereby an undesired opening of the door would be possible, a securing device is preferably introduced into the closure device, which fixes the closure device with respect to the door wings. In this case, the securing device preferably exerts a tension against the door wings and the closure device. As a result, a force is exerted on the wall.

For this purpose, the securing device preferably extends from the one side of the closure device to the side opposite this, transversely to the longitudinal extension direction of the connecting device, through the connecting device therethrough. It goes without saying that the closure device and the securing device only have to be arranged between the two leafs and can, if the gate is closed and thus the passage is closed.

FIGS. 1 a, 1 b, 2 a and 2 b show various views of a first exemplary embodiment of a guide device according to the invention, so that the illustrations of these figures are explained using the same reference symbols and with respective reference to one another.

1a shows a side view of a guide device according to the invention with a passage which is closed by a gate 1, which consists of a first door leaf 10 and a second door leaf 11. Both gate leaves 10, 11 are each connected by means of a secured hinge 12 as a connecting device with a guide element 2, which are anchored by posts 3 as support elements in the substrate 4, on which the guide is arranged.

The hinges 12 are anchored by anchoring parts 13 with the substrate U. A particularly suitable anchoring method, for example, a concreting of the anchoring parts 13 and the post 3. Also a ramming comes in a suitable substrate 4 into consideration.

The hinges 12 define the vertical pivot axis of the door wings 10, 11th

The first door leaf 10, like the second door leaf 11, has a first side wall 100 or 110, which faces a traffic path V. Furthermore, both gate leaves 10, 11 each have a second side wall 101 and 111, which faces away from the traffic route V.

When the door 1 is closed as a passage, each of the first side walls 100, 110 and the second side walls 101, 111 of the two leaves 10, 11 aligned with each other, as can be seen from the figure 1b. In addition, a wall 14 is formed on the contact surface of the two leaves 10, 11 by end-side material portions of the gate, which between the first side surfaces 100, 110 on the one hand and the second side surfaces 101, 111 on the other hand runs. In this case, the angle at which the wall 14 extends away from the side surfaces 100, 101, 110, 111 deviates from 90 °.

Thus, the angle between the wall 14 and the first side surface 100 of the first door leaf 10 in the illustrated in the Figure 1b first embodiment of the invention is about 100 °, while the angle between the wall 14 and the first side surface 110 of the second door leaf about 80 °. The angle between the wall 14 and the second side surfaces 101, 111 is accordingly around 80 ° or around 100 °, so that the respective angle sum yields 180 °.

This in relation to the side surfaces 100, 101, 110, 111 oblique course of the wall 14 results from the shape of the end faces or end faces of the leaves 10, 11, which are respectively arranged at the end of the leaves 10, 11, which is the hinge 12 is opposite. In the figure 2b, the end face 15 of the first door leaf 10 is exemplified. It can be clearly seen in the view from above that the end face 15 extends obliquely from the first side surface 100 to the second side surface 101. Also, the second door leaf 11 has a corresponding obliquely extending end face between the first side surface 110 and the second side surface 111, wherein the oblique course of the end face of the second door leaf 11 is complementary to that of the end face 15 of the first door leaf, that when closing both Door leaf 10, 11 forms the wall 14, at which the two end faces are flush with each other in contact (see, for this, the figure 5c).

The flush closing of both leaves 10, 11 with the formation of the wall 14, a force from a gate leaf 10, 11 in the other gate 11, 10 allows. Whether the wall 14 extends from the bottom left to the top right as in the representation of FIG. 1b or alternatively - with reference to the representation of FIG. 1b - from bottom right to top left, does not play an essential role for the connection of the two door leaves 10. 11. It has been shown, however, that the flush closing of the two leaves 10, 11 is then considerably more difficult if the angle between the wall 14 and the side surfaces 100, 101, 110, 111 is exactly 90 °. Therefore, an oblique course of the end faces of the gate 10, 11 is preferred.

It can be seen from FIGS. 1 a and 2 a that the first door leaf 10 has two guide rails or guide rails 102, 103 arranged one above the other, which are connected to each other by struts 104 as coupling elements. By this arrangement, the stability of the first door leaf 10 is increased. The same applies to the second gate 11, the two one above the other arranged guide rails or crash barriers 112, 113, which are connected to each other with struts 114.

The leaves 10, 11 have no direct anchoring to the ground 4. They are only connected via the hinges 12 and their anchoring parts 13 to the ground. For easier pivoting of the door leaf 10, 11 about the hinges 12 are on the leaves 10, 11 rolling elements 105, 115 arranged as sliding devices, each resting with at least one roller on the ground 4. The rolling elements 105, 115 take on a portion of the dead weight of the leaf 10, 11 and thus relieve the hinges 12. For a favorable leverage the rolling elements 105, 115 are therefore spaced from the hinges 12, that is, closer to the end faces of Door leaf 10, 11 than at the hinges 12. It can also more than one rolling element 105, 115 per gate 10, 11 are arranged.

The hinges 12 are arranged on the side facing away from the traffic route V side of the guide, as can be seen from Figures 1b and 2b. As a result, the door leaves 10, 11 are moved away from the traffic route V when they are pivoted about the hinges 12. Also, the hinges 12 do not constitute an obstacle projecting into the traffic route V.

To illustrate the cross-sectional profile of the crash barriers 102, 103, 112, 113, a cross-section along the line X-X in FIG. 2c is shown in FIG. 2c. Instead of this cross-sectional profile, another profile of a guardrail could be used, which allows sufficient stability of the door leaf 10, 11.

In the figures 3a and 3b are - using the same reference numerals for the elements already described and with reference to the figures 1a to 2c - a side view and a top view of the known from the figures 1a to 2c guide shown, which by Door leaf 10, 11 formed gate 1 is now open, so that a passage or a passage 5 is formed in the guide. Through the passage 5, a vehicle 6 can drive through in a simple manner, when the guide is arranged on a traffic route V and the traffic route boundary 7 is set up for a passage of a vehicle 6.

For the purpose of passing a vehicle 6 through the passage 5, the passage 5 has a width which is adapted to the size of the vehicle 6. Should the passage 5 of Passenger cars are traversed, offers a width of for example about eight meters.

The leafs 10, 11 are pivoted about 180 ° about the hinges 12, so that the first side surfaces 100, 110 of the two leaves 10, 11, which are turned in the closed state of the door 1 to the traffic route V, now point away from the traffic route V. , On the other hand, the second side surfaces 101, 111 of the gate leaves 10, 11 rest against the rear sides of the posts 3 and point towards the traffic route V, wherein the guide elements 2 are arranged between the second side surfaces 101, 111 and the traffic route V.

The end faces 15, 16 of the two leaves 10, 11, which are arranged at the end of the leaf 10, 11, which lies opposite the hinges 12 and which form the wall 14 in the closed state of the door 1, are with the door 1 open farthest from the passage 5 arranged elements of the gate 10, 11th

FIGS. 4a and 4b show a side view and a top view of a second exemplary embodiment of a guide device according to the invention. Compared with the embodiment shown in the previous figures, this example differs in that the hinges 12 are not directly connected to the anchored firmly in the ground 4 guide element 2, but a gap 8 between the hinges 12 and the guide element 2 is present.

The other arrangement of this guide but corresponds to that of the guide shown in the previous figures, so that reference will be made to the corresponding explanations using identical reference numerals for the same elements.

Since a guide preferably has a continuous Zugbandanordnung by vanes or crash barriers, the gap 8 of the guide for operation at a traffic route V is preferably closed by a crash barrier connecting element, which is connected on the one hand with the hinge 12 and on the other hand with the guide element 2. This results in a continuous guide device, as shown in Figure 4b.

The elements of the guide device marked by circles in FIG. 4b and provided with the letters A, B and C are shown in detail in FIGS. 5a, 5b and 5c, which are explained below with reference to the preceding figures.

Thus, FIG. 5a shows a detail side view and FIG. 5b shows a view from above of the hinge 12 on which the gate leaves 10, 11 are mounted. On the hinge 12, a plate 120 is arranged, which serves to fix the crash barrier connecting element, which closes the gap 8 shown in the figure 4a. In the upper region of the hinge 12 ball bearings 121 are arranged, which allow the pivotability of the door leaf 10, 11 about the hinges 12.

In order to limit a deflection of the gate leaves 10, 11 towards the traffic route V, a stopper 122 is arranged on an immovable part of the hinges 12, which comes into contact with the door wings 10, 11 when they are pivoted toward the traffic path V. The stopper 122 is preferably made of an elastic material such as hard rubber.

FIG. 5c shows a detailed illustration of the connecting region between the two door leaves 10, 11 when the door 1 is closed. The oblique end faces 15, 16 of the door leaf 10, 11 are in contact with each other to form the wall 14 in contact. The wall 14 is also called a bulkhead because of its partitioning function.

From the first door leaf 10 to the second door leaf 11 extends through the side surfaces 15, 16 and the wall 14, a tube 17 as a closure element. The tube 17 is guided by a tubular sleeve 18, which is formed by the first door leaf 10 and the second door leaf 11 by a corresponding shape. In a central region of the tube 17, a slot-shaped opening 19 is arranged through which from one side of the tube 17 to the 180 ° opposite side of the tube 17 extending objects can be passed.

This is illustrated in FIG. 5d. In the lower area of FIG. 5d, the tube 17 with the slot-shaped opening 19 is shown in the same viewing direction as in FIG. 5c. In the upper area of FIG. 5d, the tube 17 cut along the line ZZ is shown in a cross-sectional representation. In the slot-shaped opening 19, a first wedge 20 and a second wedge 21 can be introduced as securing elements. The wedges in this case have an opposing shape, so that they are each introduced from opposite directions in the slot-shaped opening, which is indicated by the arrows in the figure 5d.

When the wedges 20, 21 are driven into the slot-shaped opening 19 of the tube 17, they put the tube 17 in tension relative to the tube sleeve 18 and thus against the door wings 10, 11, whereby a force is exerted on the wall 14. This has the consequence that the leaves 10, 11 are connected to each other in a shift-resistant manner. To prevent inadvertent falling out of the wedges from the slot-shaped opening 19, the wedges are secured by cotter pins.

In order to disengage the door leaves 10, 11 again, at least one of the two wedges 20, 21 must be removed again from the slot-shaped opening in order subsequently to remove the tube 17 from the connection area between the two door leaves 10, 11. Due to the opposite configuration of the two wedges 20, 21, the other wedge in the slot-shaped opening 19 remain. Depending on which direction a better access to the wedges 20, 21 is possible, one can decide for the removal of the one wedge 20 or the other wedge 21. The removal is preferably by means of a hammer or other impact tool to apply the required counterforce to the force exerted by the wedging of the wedges 20, 21 between the tube 17 and the tube sleeve 18.

It is immediately apparent from FIGS. 4b and 5c that in order to open the leafs 10, 11 in the direction provided by the curved arrows, the first leaf 10 and then the second leaf 11 must first be moved in the opening direction due to the obliquely shaped end faces 15, 16 , Conversely, when closing the gate 1, first the second gate 11 and then the first gate 10 must be brought into the position shown in Figure 4b.

By complementary to the curves shown in Figure 5c of the end faces 15, 16 of the door leaf 10, 11, the opening and closing sequence of the door leaf 10, 11 could be reversed. In other words, if the wall 14 is not from bottom left to top right as shown in Figure 5c, but from bottom right to top left, the respective pivoting order of the door leaf 10, 11 would be exactly the opposite.

FIG. 5e shows a cross-sectional profile of the first door leaf 10 which is cut along the line E-E in FIG. 4b and is comparable to the cross-sectional profile shown in FIG. 2c.
