Description

Die Erfindung betrifft einen durch Luftüberdruck stabilisierbaren und über Abspanneinrichtungen an einer Unterlage verankerbaren, insbesondere kegelstumpfförmigen Hohlkörper, der aus mehreren flexiblen Materialbahnen zusammengesetzt ist, die sich jeweils in Umfangerichtung des Hohlkörpers erstrecken.The invention relates to a stabilizable by air pressure and anchoring means on anchoring means on a substrate, in particular frusto-conical hollow body, which is composed of a plurality of flexible material webs, each extending in the circumferential direction of the hollow body.

Durch ständige Luftzufuhr mittels eines Gehäuses in einer stabilen Lage gehaltene Hohlkörper, in denen zwar ein bestimmter Überdruck gegeben ist, die aber nicht aufgeblasen sind, da diese Luft an zumindest einer Stelle wieder austreten kann, werden für Werbezwecke häufig eingesetzt. Beispielsweise zeigt die DE 94 07 294 U eine werberöhre mit 3 Meter Durchmesser und 27 Meter Höhe. Im Bodenbereich ist ein zusätzlicher Wasserbehälter vorgesehen, um die nötige Standfestigkeit zu erzielen, und am Boden verankerbare Seile zur Abspannung erstrecken sich bis zu etwa drei Viertel der Höhe des Hohlkörpers.By constant air supply by means of a housing in a stable position held hollow body, in which although a certain overpressure is given, but which are not inflated, since this air can escape at least one point again, are often used for advertising purposes. For example, the shows DE 94 07 294 U a promotional tube with a diameter of 3 meters and a height of 27 meters. In the floor area, an additional water tank is provided to achieve the necessary stability, and anchoring ropes anchored to the floor extend up to approximately three quarters of the height of the hollow body.

In dem Artikel " A new kind of Air Racing" von Cox B. aus dem Pilot Journal, Los Angeles, CA, US vom März 2005 auf Seiten 49-53, 86 (XP001246595) wird gleichfalls eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art beschrieben.In the article " A new child of Air Racing "by Cox B. from the Pilot Journal, Los Angeles, CA, US of March 2005 at pages 49-53, 86 (XP001246595) a device of the type mentioned is also described.

In jüngster Zeit werden Kunstflugwettbewerbe veranstaltet, bei denen die Flugzeuge einen Kurs abfliegen müssen, der durch überdimensionale "Slalomtore" definiert ist. Die Tore bestehen aus zwei "slalomstangen", die in einem Abstand von beispielsweise 10 bis 14 Metern ausgestellt sind, und eine Höhe von 18 Metern aufweisen. Das Passieren der Tore erfolgt nach bestimmten Regeln, die hier nicht wesentlich sind.More recently, aerobatic competitions have been held where the aircraft have to fly off a course defined by oversized "slalom goals". The gates consist of two "slalomstangen", which are displayed at a distance of, for example, 10 to 14 meters, and have a height of 18 meters. The gates pass according to certain rules, which are not essential here.

Die einzelnen Slalomstangen sind Hohlkörper der eingangs genannten Art, die nicht zylindrisch sondern konisch sind, wobei die Hohlkörperachse schräg verläuft, sodass die das Tor festlegenden Erzeugenden der beiden Hohlkörper zueinander parallel liegen. Die Hohlkörper sind aus mehreren flexiblen Materialbahnen zusammengesetzt, die aus einem Material bestehen, das sofort reißt, wenn es mit einem Teil des Flugzeugs in Berührung kommt. Dadurch liegt kein das Flugzeug gefährdender Widerstand vor, und der beschädigt Hohlkörper sinkt in sich zusammen und wird durch einen neuen ersetzt.The individual slalom rods are hollow bodies of the type mentioned, which are not cylindrical but conical, wherein the hollow body axis is oblique, so that the gate defining the generatrix of the two hollow bodies are parallel to each other. The hollow bodies are made of several flexible Material webs composed of a material that breaks immediately when it comes into contact with a part of the aircraft. As a result, there is no resistance to the aircraft, and the damaged hollow body collapses and is replaced by a new one.

Für die Fixierung an einer Unterlage sind Abspannseile vorgesehen, die nur bis zu einer geringen Höhe über dem Boden (etwa zwei bis zweieinhalb Meter) angeordnet werden können, sodass die ausschließlich durch den Luftüberdruck zu erzielende Stabilität bisher Probleme mit sich brachte, insbesondere da die Hohlkörper Windgeschwindigkeiten bis zu 50 km/h standhalten müssen. Weiter oben angebrachte Abspannseile würden die Flugzeuge gefährden. Die Erfindung hat es sich daher zur Aufgabe gestellt, die standsicherheit eines derartigen Hohlkörpers zu verbessern. Dies wird dadurch erreicht, dass die flächenbezogene Masse der Materialbahnen im Bereich des verankerbaren Endes des Hohlkörpers größer als im Bereich des freien Endes ist.For the fixation to a pad guy ropes are provided, which can be arranged only to a low height above the ground (about two to two and a half meters), so that the only achieved by the air pressure stability so far brought problems, especially since the hollow body Wind speeds up to 50 km / h have to withstand. Further overhead guy ropes would endanger the aircraft. The invention has therefore set itself the task of improving the stability of such a hollow body. This is achieved in that the area-related mass of the material webs in the region of the anchorable end of the hollow body is greater than in the region of the free end.

Auf diese Weise ist die Hohlkörperwandung im unteren Bereich ausreichend stark, um die Belastungen aus dem oberen Bereich des Hohlkörpers ohne Abspannseile aufnehmen zu können, und zerreißt im oberen Bereich so leicht, dass einem berührenden Flugzeug kein für den Flug nachteiliger Widerstand entgegengebracht wird.In this way, the hollow body wall in the lower region is sufficiently strong to accommodate the loads from the upper region of the hollow body without guy ropes, and ruptures in the upper area so easily that a touching aircraft is not presented for adverse flight adverse resistance.

Eine kontinuierliche Verringerung der flächenbezogenen Masse von der Verankerungaseite bis zum freien Ende ist dabei nicht notwendig. So hat der Materialetreifen, von dem die Abepannseile wegführen, vorzugsweise eine wesentlich höhere flächenbezogene Masse als etwa der auf der Unterlage aufliegende Materialstreifen.A continuous reduction of the basis weight from the Anankerungaseite to the free end is not necessary. Thus, the material strip from which the Abepannseile lead away, preferably a much higher surface mass than about resting on the substrate strip of material.

Die Materialbahnen haben nicht nur verschiedene flächenbezogene Massen, sondern sind bevorzugt auch aus unterschiedlichen oder unterschiedlich behandelten Materialien. Beispielsweise können schwerere Materialbahnen aus einem PU- oder PVC-beschichteten polyestergewebe bestehen, während leichtere Materialbahnen vor allem im gefährdeten Bereich zum freien Ende hin zumindest teilweise aus einem Ripstopgewebe gebildet ist. Ripetopgewebe haben üblicherweise in Abständen stärkere Kett- und Schussfäden, um Einrisse zu leiten und zu beschränken. Für die leichteren Materialbahnen können aber vorteilhaft auch Ripstopgewebe eingesetzt werden, bei denen stärkere Kettfäden, die in Umfangsrichtung des Hohlkörpers verlaufen und nur gleiche Schussfäden oder stärkere Schussfäden in großen Abständen vorgesehen sind, sodass ein Einrise parallel zu den Kettfäden nicht unnötig gebremst wird.The material webs not only have different surface-related masses, but are preferably also made of different or differently treated Materials. For example, heavier material webs can consist of a PU or PVC-coated polyester fabric, while lighter material webs, especially in the endangered region, are formed at least partially from a ripstop fabric toward the free end. Ripetop fabrics typically have stronger warp and weft yarns at intervals to guide and restrict tearing. For the lighter webs but can also be used advantageously ripstop fabric in which stronger warp threads which extend in the circumferential direction of the hollow body and only equal weft threads or stronger weft threads are provided at long intervals, so that a crisis parallel to the warp threads is not unnecessarily slowed down.

Der Luftüberdruck wird in dem oben offenen Hohlkörper durch mindestens ein Gebläse insbesondere mit einem Verbrennungsmotor aufrecht erhalten, das bevorzugt in einem Gehäuse untergebracht ist.The positive air pressure is maintained in the open-topped hollow body by at least one fan, in particular with an internal combustion engine, which is preferably accommodated in a housing.

Der Luftdruck im Inneren des Hohlkörpers ist dabei günstigerweise zwischen 5 und 35 mbar, vorzugsweise zwischen 10 und 15 mbar eingestellt. Bezogen auf den realen Berstdruck, also jenem Druck, bei dem der Hohlkörper platzt, beträgt der Überdruck günstigerweise mindestens 10 %, bevorzugt mindestens 30 % und noch bevorzugter mindestens 50 % des realen Berstdrucks des Hohlkörpers. Durch dieses pralle Aufpumpen wird erreicht, dass im Fälle einer Berührung eines Flugzeuges mit dem Hohlkörper dieser möglichst direkt oder nahe der Aufprallstelle explosionsartig platzt und dadurch keine Stoffteile am Flugzeug hängen bleiben.The air pressure in the interior of the hollow body is favorably set between 5 and 35 mbar, preferably between 10 and 15 mbar. Relative to the actual bursting pressure, ie the pressure at which the hollow body bursts, the overpressure is favorably at least 10%, preferably at least 30% and more preferably at least 50% of the actual bursting pressure of the hollow body. By this bulging inflation is achieved that in cases of contact of an aircraft with the hollow body this bursts as possible directly or near the point of impact explosively and thus no pieces of fabric get stuck on the aircraft.

Bezogen auf den theoretischen Berstdruck (jener mathematisch ermittelte Wert des Innendrucks in Bezug auf die Reißkraft des Gewebes laut jeweiligem technischen Datenblatt) betragen günstige Oberdruckwerte im Hohlkörper zwischen 3 % und 50 % dieses theoretischen Berstdrucks des Hohlkörpermaterials, vorzugsweise zwischen 5 % und 25 % des theoretischen Berstdrucks, Zu bemerken ist, dass die Reißkraft von technischen Geweben durch Konfektionstechniken und Verbindungen wie etwa Nähen geschwächt wird, sodass. der reale Berstdruck deutlich früher erreicht wird als der theoretische Berstdruck. Der theoretische Berstdruck lässt sich aber anhand von technischen Datenblättem leichter ermitteln.Based on the theoretical bursting pressure (that mathematically determined value of the internal pressure with respect to the breaking strength of the fabric according to the respective technical data sheet), favorable top pressures in the hollow body are between 3% and 50% of this theoretical bursting pressure of the hollow body material, preferably between 5% and 25% of the theoretical Bursting pressure, It should be noted that the breaking strength of technical fabrics is weakened by finishing techniques and joints such as sewing, so. the real bursting pressure is reached much earlier than the theoretical bursting pressure. The theoretical bursting pressure can be determined more easily on the basis of technical data sheets.

Die Materialbahnen sind größtenteils durch Reißverschlüsse zu den insbesondere kegelstumpfförmigen Hohlkörperabschnitten geschlossen und miteinander verbunden, verankerungsnahe Materialbahnen können auch fix vernäht werden.The material webs are largely closed by zippers to the particular frusto-conical hollow body sections and connected to each other, anchoring material webs can also be sewn fixed.

Für die Demontage ist in einer bevorzugten Ausführung mindestens eine Solltrennstelle vorgesehen, die etwa in der Mitte des Hohlkörpers liegt. Wenn die Solltrennstelle geöffnet wird, platzt der freie Teil rasch ab und der verbleibende Teil fällt rasch in sich zusammen, da die Querschnittsfläche an der Solltrennstelle insbesondere bei einer Kegelstumpfform ein Vielfaches der Querschnittsfläche der für die Aufrechterhaltung des stabilisierenden Überdrucks notwendigen kleinen Öffnung am freien Ende ist. Ein rascher Abbau ist vor allem bei stärkerem Wind notwendig, da der nicht mehr stabilisierte Hohlkörper nach Art eines Segels vom Wind erfasst würde, wobei Beschädigungen kaum zu vermeiden wären.For disassembly at least one predetermined breaking point is provided in a preferred embodiment, which is located approximately in the middle of the hollow body. When the break-off point is opened, the free part breaks down quickly and the remaining part rapidly collapses, since the cross-sectional area at the break-off point is a multiple of the cross-sectional area of the small opening at the free end necessary to maintain the stabilizing overpressure, particularly in the case of a truncated cone shape , A rapid degradation is necessary especially in stronger winds, as the no longer stabilized hollow body would be detected by the wind like a sail, with damage would be difficult to avoid.

Die Solltrennstelle umfasst bevorzugt ebenfalls einen Reißverschluss, der vorzugsweise keinen Schieber enthält und an den beiden einander überlappenden Enden geöffnet ist. Während alle anderen Reißverschlüsse durch einen Klettverschlussstreifen vollständig abgedeckt sind, werden beim Reißverschluss der Solltrennstelle nur die geöffneten Enden durch eine entfernbare Verbindung gesichert. Die entfernbare Verbindung umfasst bevorzugt eine die Enden überbrückende Lasche, die mittels eines Klettverschlusses an den beiden Materialbahnen fixiert und mit einer Reißleine versehen ist.The predetermined separation point preferably also comprises a zipper, which preferably contains no slider and is open at the two overlapping ends. While all other zippers are completely covered by a Velcro strip, only the open ends are secured by a removable connection in the zipper of the predetermined separation point. The removable connection preferably comprises a strap bridging the ends, which is fixed by means of a hook-and-loop fastener to the two material webs and provided with a ripcord.

Für die Demontage wird also einerseits durch Ziehen an der Reißleine die Lasche geöffnet und das Aufplatzen des Reißverschlusses ausgelöst und anderseits durch Festhalten der vom freien Ende herunter hängenden Fangleine, die abgeplatzte obereFor disassembly so on the one hand by pulling the ripcord open the tab and the bursting of the zipper triggered and on the other hand by holding the hanging from the free end hanging line, the chipped upper

Hälfte eingefangen. Gegebenenfalls können auch insbesondere bei längeren bzw. höheren Hohlkörpern auch zwei derartige Solltrennstellen von Vorteil sein.Half captured. If appropriate, two such desired break points may also be advantageous, in particular for longer or higher hollow bodies.

Die sich in Umfangsrichtung erstreckenden Kettfäden der Materialbahnen sind bevorzugt solche, die sich durch den Luftüberdruck um etwa 5% bis 6% dehnen. Durch geeignete diametrale Verspannungen od. dgl. ist es möglich, anstatt eines Kreiskegelstumpfes beispielsweise einen Kegelstumpf mit elliptischer Grundfläche zu erzielten, wobei die großen Ellipsenachsen zweier zu einem "Tor" zusammengestellten Hohlkörper dann in der Torlinie liegen und die Stabilität in der Torebene nochmals verbessert wird, um Abstandsschwankungen zwischwn den freien Endbereichen so weit als möglich zu vermeiden.The circumferentially extending warp threads of the webs are preferably those which stretch by about 5% to 6% due to the air pressure. By suitable diametrical strains od. Like. It is possible to achieve instead of a circular truncated cone, for example, a truncated cone with elliptical base, the large elliptical axes of two compiled to a "goal" hollow body then lie in the goal line and stability in the goal plane is further improved to avoid as far as possible deviations in space between the free end areas.

Sonderformen der Hohlkörper, spezielle Ausgestaltungen und Bearbeitungen für die Abgabe von Informationen an die Piloten bzw. an das Publikum, beispielsweise auch Werbung, sind ohne weiteres möglich.Special forms of the hollow body, special designs and processing for the delivery of information to the pilot or to the public, for example, advertising, are readily possible.

Erfindungsgemäße Hohlkörper 1 werden bevorzugt paarweise, wie Fig. 2 zeigt, zur Festlegung von "Toren" 31 eines Geschicklichkeitskurses für Flugzeuge eingesetzt, und stellen daher großdimensionierte "Slalomstangen" dar. Die Hohlkörper 1 können vertikal aufgestellt und an jedem beliebigen Untergrund, nicht nur am Boden sondern auch an Pontons od. dgl. im Wasser schwimmend verankert werden. Die Hohlkörper 1 können aber auch hängend von hohen Brücken oder waagrecht von Wänden od. dgl. abstehend angeordnet werden, wobei sie vor allem im letzteren Fall auch einzeln eingesetzt werden können, da eine Begrenzung des "Tores" nach unten nicht notwendig ist. Die Verankerung an der Unterlage 30 erfolgt mittels Abspannseilen 14, die in einer Höhe von etwa zwei bis zweieinhalb Metern am Hohlkörper 1 angeordnet sind. Aufgrund der nur nahe der Unterlage 30 vorsehbaren Abspannseile 14 kann der Hohlkörper nicht aus einer Materialbahn gebildet werden, sondern ist aus mehreren, im Ausführungsbeispiel aus neun Materialbahnen 4 bis 12 zusammengesetzt, die unterschiedliche. Eigenschaften aufweise. Die Materialbahnen bestehen insbesondere aus Geweben, deren Kettfäden in Umfangsrichtung verlaufen, wobei zumindest Materialbahnen 4, 5 und 6 im Bereich der Verankerung schwere Gewebe, insbesondere beschichtete Polyestergewebe sind, während zumindest jene Materialbahnen 10, 11, 12 im Bereich des freien Endes möglichst leichte und bei berührung durch das Flugzeug keinen dieses gefährdenden Widerstand bildende, Gewebe, insbesondere Polyester-Ripstopgewebe sind.Hollow body 1 according to the invention are preferably in pairs, as Fig. 2 shows, used to establish "gates" 31 of a skill course for aircraft, and therefore represent large-sized "Slalomstangen" dar. The hollow body 1 can vertically and on any ground, not only on the ground but also on pontoons od. Like. In the water be anchored floating. However, the hollow bodies 1 can also be arranged hanging from high bridges or horizontally from walls or the like, so that they can be used individually, especially in the latter case, since a limitation of the "gate" downwards is not necessary. The anchoring to the pad 30 by means of guy ropes 14, which are arranged at a height of about two to two and a half meters on the hollow body 1. Due to the only near the pad 30 providable guy ropes 14 of the hollow body can not be formed from a web, but is composed of several, in the embodiment of nine webs 4 to 12, the different. Features. The material webs consist in particular of fabrics whose warp threads run in the circumferential direction, wherein at least webs 4, 5 and 6 in the region of anchoring heavy tissue, in particular coated polyester fabric, while at least those webs 10, 11, 12 in the region of the free end as light as possible when touched by the aircraft are not forming this endangering resistance, tissue, in particular polyester Ripstopgewebe.

Jeder Hohlkörper 1 nach Fig. 1 oder 2 ist, wie erwähnt, aus den Materialbahnen 4 bis 12 zusammengesetzt, wobei diese so geschnitten sind, dass sich ein schiefer Kegelstumpf ergibt, in dem die kürzeste Erzeugende senkrecht zum Boden steht und in der längsten Erzeugenden diametral gegenüber die Verbindungsnaht jeder Materialbahn vorgesehen ist.Each hollow body 1 after Fig. 1 or 2 is, as mentioned, composed of the material webs 4 to 12, wherein these are cut so that a slanted truncated cone results in which the shortest generatrix is perpendicular to the ground and in the longest generatrix diametrically opposite the seam of each material web is provided.

Der Boden und die drei anschließenden Materialbahnen 4, 5, 6, gegebenenfalls auch 7, können miteinander vernäht sein. In der Materialbahn 4 ist ein Einlass bzw. ein Fenster 13 für ein einen dauernden Luftüberdruck im Hohlkörper sicherndes Gebläse vorgesehen. An der Materialbahn 5, die auffallend schwerer ist, sind zusätzliche Verankerungslaschen für die Abspannseile 14 ausgebildet. Die Materialbahn 4 kann auch einen weiteren verschließbaren Einlass aufweisen, sodass das Innere betreten werden kann, beispielsweise um eine Beleuchtung vorzusehen.The bottom and the three adjoining material webs 4, 5, 6, if appropriate also 7, can be sewn together. In the web 4, an inlet or a window 13 is provided for a permanent positive air pressure in the hollow body securing fan. At the web 5, which is noticeably heavier, additional anchoring tabs for the guy ropes 14 are formed. The material web 4 can also have a further closable inlet, so that the interior can be entered, for example to provide illumination.

Der Hohlkörper 1 hat eine bevorzugte Höhe von 18 Metern entsprechend den im Augenblick geltenden Regeln für Kunstflugwettbewerbe und die Breite eines in Fig. 2 gezeigten "Tores" 31 beträgt zwischen 8 und 14 Metern. Wird während eines Bewerbes ein Hohlkörper 1 beschädigt, ist natürlich eine möglichst rasche Reparatur bzw. Montage eines neuen Hohlkörpers 1 notwendig. Aus diesem Grund sind vor allem die im Bereich des freien Endes beschädigungsgefährdeten Materialbahnen 9, 10, 11 und 12 durch Reißverschlüsse und die Reißverschlüsse abdeckenden Klettverschlüsse, oder andere wieder herstellbare Verbindungen miteinander verbunden, sodass ein rascher Austausch einer Materialbahn stattfinden kann.The hollow body 1 has a preferred height of 18 meters according to the current rules for aerobatics competitions and the width of an in Fig. 2 shown "gates" 31 is between 8 and 14 meters. If a hollow body 1 is damaged during a competition, of course the fastest possible repair or assembly of a new hollow body 1 is necessary. For this reason, especially in the region of the free end damage-prone webs 9, 10, 11 and 12 by zippers and zippers covering velcro, or other reestablished connections are connected to each other, so that a rapid exchange of a web can take place.

Nach einer Veranstaltung müssen die Hohlkörper abgebaut werden, wobei bei Wegfall des stabilisierenden Luftüberdrucks im Inneren eine Phase entsteht, die nur bei Windstille unproblematisch ist. Bei Wind sind die instabilen Hohlkörper diesem ähnlich einem Segel ausgesetzt und werden verweht, aus der Verankerung gerissen und/oder noch mehr beschädigt. Um dies zu vermeiden, ist der Hohlkörper 1 mit einer Solltrennstelle 15 versehen (Fig. 2), an der gezielt eine extrem rasche Trennung des Hohlkörpers in zwei Teile erfolgen kann. Die Solltrennstelle 15 ist bevorzugt etwa in der Mitte vorgesehen.After an event, the hollow body must be dismantled, with the elimination of the stabilizing air pressure inside creates a phase that is unproblematic only in calm. In wind, the unstable hollow bodies are similar exposed to a sail and are blown, torn from the anchorage and / or damaged even more. To avoid this, the hollow body 1 is provided with a predetermined separation point 15 ( Fig. 2 ), at the targeted an extremely rapid separation of the hollow body can be done in two parts. The predetermined separation point 15 is preferably provided approximately in the middle.

An der Solltrennstelle 15 sind die beiden Materialbahnen 8 und 9 durch einen Reißverschluss 16 verbunden, der keinen Schieber aufweist und in seinen beiden einander überlappenden Endbereichen (Fig. 3 und Fig. 4) geöffnet ist Dem Luftüberdruck im Hohlkörper 1' hält der Reißverschluß 16 aufgrund seiner geöffneten Enden 21 nicht stand und die Trennung erfolgt in wenigen Sekunden, wodurch der freie Endbereich 4 abgesprengt wird und der verankerte Teil aufgrund der großen Öffnung rasch in sich zusammenfällt Am freien Ende 3 ist eine Fangleine 19 vorgesehen, sodass der leichtgewichtige, die Materialbahnen 9, 10, 11 und 12 umfassende freie Endbereich zu Boden gezogen werden kann.At the predetermined separation point 15, the two webs 8 and 9 are connected by a zipper 16 which has no slider and in its two overlapping end regions ( FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 ) is open the air pressure in the hollow body 1 'holds the zipper 16 due to its open ends 21 and the separation takes place in a few seconds, whereby the free end portion 4 is blasted off and the anchored part rapidly collapses due to the large opening at the free end 3, a tether 19 is provided so that the lightweight, the webs 9, 10, 11 and 12 comprehensive free end portion can be pulled to the ground.

Die Solltrennstelie 15 ist durch eine vom Boden aus über eine Reißleine 18 lösbare Verbindung 17 gesichert, die aus einer die überlappenden Enden 21 überdeckenden Lasche 22 besteht (Fig. 4), die mittels Klettverschlüsse 23, 24 an der Materialbahn 8 und an der Materialbahn 9 fixiert ist. Soll die Trennung an der Solltrennstette erfolgen, wird an der Reißleine 18 gezogen und die Lasche 22 gibt die Enden 21 frei, sodass sich der Reißverschluss 18 wie beschrieben öffnet.The Solltrennstelie 15 is secured by a detachable from the bottom of a ripcord 18 connection 17, which consists of a overlapping the ends 21 overlapping tab 22 ( Fig. 4 ), which is fixed by means of Velcro fasteners 23, 24 on the material web 8 and on the material web 9. If the separation on the Solltrennstette done, is pulled on the ripcord 18 and the tab 22 releases the ends 21, so that the zipper 18 opens as described.

Der Hohlkörper 1 hat am Verankerungsende 2 bevorzugt einen Durchmesser von 5 Metern und am freien, offenen Ende 3 einen Durchmesser von 75 Zentimetern. Das Gebläse erzeugt bevorzugt einen Überdruck von etwa 5 bis 35 mbar, was sich für diese Dimensionierung des Hohlkörpers 1 als vorteilhaft erwiesen hat.The hollow body 1 preferably has a diameter of 5 meters at the anchoring end 2 and a diameter of 75 centimeters at the free, open end 3. The blower preferably generates an overpressure of about 5 to 35 mbar, which has proved to be advantageous for this dimensioning of the hollow body 1.

Die Erfindung ist selbstverständlich nicht auf die dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiele beschränkt. Beispielsweise müssen die Hohlkörper nicht in Form von vom Boden abstehenden Stangen realisiert sein. Vielmehr sind auch andere Gestalten möglich, beispielsweise Bögen, bei denen die Länge des Hohlkörpers dann die Erstreckung entlang der gedachten Längsmittelachse des Bogens ist.The invention is of course not limited to the illustrated embodiments. For example, the hollow bodies need not be realized in the form of projecting rods from the ground. Rather, other shapes are possible, such as bows, in which the length of the hollow body is then the extension along the imaginary longitudinal central axis of the arc.
