Definitions

  • the present invention refers to an avalanche protection element and the like.
  • Such elements are generally formed by a wire net surface that is arranged substantially perpendicular, or otherwise tilted, to the ground and fastened thereto so as to block or at least contain snow advancing.
  • a viable implemented solution consists in the use of a pyramid-shaped structure, in which the net surface defining its base is connected to the ground at the pyramid vertex by a strut developing along the height of said geometric figure.
  • vertex is connected to the corners of the net surface by wire cables functioning as tie rods.
  • An example of said structures is described in European Pat. N° EP 828 897 , in which it is described an umbrella-shaped avalanche protection element requiring a single anchoring point.
  • Such an avalanche protection element is formed by a strut with the upslope end directly or indirectly anchored to the ground, whereas the downslope end is provided with a support onto which there are applied, lying on a single plane perpendicular with respect to the longitudinal axis of said strut, four beams arranged in an X shape and radially developing, converging toward said support.
  • the beams are hinged to the downslope end of the strut, whereas the opposite points thereof are connected by strands to the upslope end of the same strut; moreover, the same beams are connected thereamong with a cable.
  • known elements have connections between the beams and the other components, made with bolted junctions, in which it is necessary to provide a certain multidirectional play in order to allow an optimal tension distribution when the snow-generated load is applied.
  • junctions are used between the tie rod-forming rods and the beams on which the net surface is supported, in a manner such that, thanks to the existing play, the former may act as hinges; such a constructive solution prevent a snow load from transmitting momenta to said beams.
  • the junction does not act as a mere hinge anymore, and the momentum is at least partially transmitted by the junction, giving rise to stresses frequently causing breaks in the structure.
  • the technical problem underlying the present invention is to provide an avalanche protection element overcoming the drawbacks hereto-mentioned with reference to the known art.
  • the present invention provides several relevant advantages.
  • the main advantage lies in that it prevents breaks linked to snow accumulations or ice layers, requiring no oversizing in the component parts of the structure.
  • an avalanche protection element has a substantially octahedron-like shape, and during use it is arranged in a manner such as to be fastened to the ground of a mountain slope, at an end 32 thereof, according to modes that will be detailed hereinafter.
  • the avalanche protection element is laid onto the ground, so as to have a protection surface 1 remaining arranged substantially perpendicularly to the ground, or otherwise tilted.
  • the surface 1 matches the base of the two facing pyramids forming said octahedron.
  • the surface 1 can thus hold snow, preventing the formation of avalanches or anyhow confining their advancing, analogously to known avalanche protection elements.
  • the surface 1 is made of a metal mesh net, allowing to contain snow depositing on a mountain slope.
  • avalanche protection elements are used, combined according to different geometric schemes in a manner such as to form variously patterned barriers.
  • the avalanche protection elements may be positioned side by side the one to the other, so as to create a continuous barrier, or spaced thereamong, thereby leaving a transit option to wild animals.
  • the avalanche protection element according to the present invention further comprises at least two beams 2 supporting the protection surface 1.
  • the beams 2 are connected to a stem 3 at a first portion 31 by suitable connecting means 4, illustrated, according to a first embodiment, in Figure 2.
  • the beams 2 are connected to the stem 3 at the end 32.
  • the avalanche protection element has a rod 6 developing, with respect to the surface 1, in a direction opposite to that of the stem 3.
  • the rod 6 supports second tie rods 7, them also arranged in a position opposite to the first tie rods 5, with respect to the protection surface 1.
  • the presence of the second tie rods 7 connected to the beams 2 prevents those breaking phenomena occurring following the formation of snow accumulations or ice sheets and the momentum consequently acting on the beams 2.
  • the second tie rods owing to the load produced by the action of snow, act with their own pull and oppose the momentum generated by the presence of snow accumulations or ice sheets on the first tie rods at the points of connection with the beams.
  • the first and second tie rods are made by wire cables and fastened to the beams 2 by respective plates 25 and 27.
  • the stem 3 is connected to ground-fastening means 8 at the end 32, to which there are further fastened the first tie rods 5.
  • said ground-fastening means 8 comprises a cable 81 apt to be immersed in the ground and keep the avalanche protection element in a selected position.
  • Said ground-fastening means 8 may be made with steps known to a person skilled in the art, and therefore will not be detailed hereinafter.
  • the protection surface 1 has a substantially quadrangular shape and the beams 2 are arranged along diagonals thereof.
  • stem 3 and rod 6 are connected to the protection surface 1 substantially at a center point of the latter, point defined by the intersection of the diagonals of the surface itself.
  • the connecting means 4 is arranged substantially at the intersection of the diagonals of the protection surface 1. Note also that, as it will be illustrated hereinafter, in the present embodiment said point matches that of intersection of the beams 2.
  • the beams 2 have a radial development with respect to stem 3 and rod 6, as illustrated in Figure 1.
  • stem 3 and rod 6 are substantially aligned and develop substantially perpendicular to the protection surface 1, in a manner such that stem and rod match each with a respective height of the pyramids forming the octahedron.
  • the rod 6 is connected to the beams 2 by a joint 24 obtained on a locking plate 23.
  • the beams are present in a number equal to two, intersected therebetween substantially at the center of the protection surface 1.
  • the rod 6 is therefore connected to the beams 2 at an intersection point thereof, as illustrated in Figure 3A.
  • a second locking plate 22 is used, connectible to the plate 23 by bolts, in a manner such as to interpose between the pair of plates 22 and 23 the beams 2, which thereby remain locked therebetween.
  • connection between rod 6 and beams 2 that, as illustrated in the foregoing takes place by the joint 24, is pivotable, in a manner such as to allow to the rod rotary motions inside of a substantially vertical plane.
  • Such a connection may be made, e.g., by a pin 63, located at an end 61 of the rod 6.
  • the same pivotable connection may be provided also at the connection between stem 3 and beams 2.
  • such a motion occurs about a horizontal axis, substantially perpendicular to the stem 3 itself.
  • the horizontal direction is defined by the ground-resting position of the avalanche protection element.
  • the connecting means 4 comprises a substantially spherical element 41, fastened to the plate 23 by welding, and a nut 42 apt to house the spherical element 41.
  • this type of connection allows an improved distribution of stresses in the structure when the latter is subjected to a snow load.
  • snow-generated load is not constant along the vertical direction, the structure being generally subjected to greater stresses in the bottom portion thereof, where the avalanche has greater strength.
  • connection may also work as a ball joint, allowing a certain movability in all directions, providing a certain play in the connection between latch and related seat on the spherical element.
  • this type of connection proves advantageous with respect to the connections made according to the known art, as it requires no bolted connection in which a limited play is provided, therefore allowing a simple and effective manufacturing of the avalanche protection element, as well as preventing also in this connection the problems related to the aforementioned momenta.
  • the second tie rods due to their location, are stressed oppositely with respect to the first tie rods and, therefore, in case of formation of ice sheets or the like will produce a momentum that will tend to oppose that generated by the first tie rods.
  • the second tie rods 7 are present in a number equal to two and intersected at an end 64 of the rod 6. This option is linked to the use of the pivotable connection of the rod 6 and, thus, it is avoided the presence of additional connections between the rod itself and the second tie rods.
  • an avalanche protection element according to a second embodiment has a rod 36 integrally connected to the stem 3.
  • rod 36 and stem 3 form a single body of elongated shape, wherein the rod 36 is made as an extension of the stem 3 beyond the connecting means 4.
  • the connecting means 4 is apt to make a slidable connection between the beams 2 and the stem 3 or, more precisely, the single piece formed by stem 3 and rod 36.
  • Such a connection is made by a seat 41, of a shape complementary to the stem 3, which may receive therein the stem 3 itself and the rod 36, allowing a certain sliding.
  • the beams 2 are arranged radially with respect to the stem, analogously to the preceding embodiment, and are housed in suitable coupling sections 42, inside which the former are locked in a manner such as to obtain an X-like arrangement, again analogously to the preceding case.
  • the coupling sections are made by means of seats apt to house the beams 2, as illustrated in Figure 7D.
  • each of the beams 2 extends along half of the diagonal of the protection surface, and that, in case of a quadrangular-shaped surface, there will be four beams radially arranged with respect to the stem 3.
  • connection between each of the beams 2 is made by the connecting means 4, which provides sufficient rigidity to the structure thus made.
  • the second tie rods 7 are instead connected to a plate 37, placed at an end of said rod 36, in a manner such as to at least partially prevent, together with the first tie rods 5, sliding motions of the connecting means with respect to the stem and the rod 36.
  • the avalanche protection element according to the present embodiment further has means apt to limit sliding motions of said connecting means 4, which, e.g., may be made by gudgeons 44 respectively inserted in the stem and in the rod 36 and fastened by split pins.
