Description

The invention relates to a support for a space structure with a fastening device for securing a railing device to the support and a connection arrangement for a railing device comprising at least one support for a space structure and a railing device, which is fastened by means of a fastening device to the support and further relates a method for securing a railing device by means of a fastening device to a support for a space structure.

In practice, a variety of fastening devices for securing railing devices to supports for space structures, in particular on vertical scaffolding posts, have become known in the past.

A particularly simple fastening construction is for example from CH-A-439 679 known. This relates to a scaffolding with vertical support frame, the vertical support tubes are provided with U-shaped Einsteckösen, in which are bent at right angles bent down insertion ends of handrails of railing frame. These railing frames are not secured against lifting upwards, which is not tolerable under safety aspects.

Another banister attachment is from the FR-A-25 16 141 known. There scaffolding frames are provided with vertical stems to which transverse bolts extending away are attached. These have at their free ends upwardly projecting cams, so that these bolts form a kind of hook. In these hooks, the ends of a double railing or a railing frame are mounted, the upper two end tabs are provided for this purpose with downwardly open receiving openings, which form a kind of contrast hooks. The lower two end tabs are provided with elongated holes extending in the vertical direction, of which a slot with a pivotable about a horizontal axis trigger guard against removal in the direction of the bolt of the associated hook one of the scaffolding posts is securable. These railings are also not secured against lifting up. The FR-A-25 16 141 also discloses L-shaped longitudinal bars that are used to connect and secure two adjacent scaffold stands on which are supported L-shaped supports formed with a crossbar on which wooden scaffold planks can be supported in an intermediate position between the crossbars of adjacent scaffolding frames , These L-longitudinal bars indicate her L-leg two vertically spaced end legs on and at its from the L-leg perpendicular away from the other end extending a third end leg. This third end leg has a downwardly open hook which can be hung on an upwardly open hook bolt of the stems one of the frames. The third end leg also has a hook-shaped swivel bracket, which is pivotable about a transverse axis and which pivots under hooks on the hook bolt third end leg by gravity under the hook bolt and in this way allows a vertical lift-off at this end of the L-longitudinal bar. Apart from the fact that it can come with this swivel bar to malfunction in soiling, which are not tolerable under safety aspects, this, attached to the end of the L-longitudinal bar pivot bracket, an increased risk of injury when handling the L-longitudinal bar.

For the above reasons, other solutions have been developed which have tried to avoid the disadvantages described above. These solutions can be divided essentially into two main groups.

A first main group relates to constructions in which the cross-country facilities are frictionally secured by clamping forces against lifting of the supports of the supports. Usually this U-shaped wedge boxes are attached to the vertical scaffolding tube stands with their thighs, in which perpendicular bent down tabs of railings are inserted and fixed there by means of a wedge. This must be hit with a hammer to a pressing a tab of a railing against the tube stand or two in the To achieve the same wedge box hinged tabs of two railings against each other and against the pipe stand, so as to secure the handrail or against vertical lifting upwards. To dismantle the framework, the wedges must be knocked out with a suitable tool, so that the construction and dismantling of such scaffolding is comparatively complicated only by means of a tool. Such constructions are for example from the DE-A-27 57 189 , of the DE-A-38 32 480 , of the DE-A-31 08 020 , of the DE-A-198 27 284 and the DE-U-20 2004 007 550 known as the "Layher Flash Scaffold System". For certain applications, the wedge boxes can also be releasably connectable to the scaffold stems, such as in the WO 02/066765 A2 disclosed.

Other terminal connections, which is trying to prevent by a positive connection lifting the railing up or obstruct, for example, from DE-PS-100 10 229 or the DE-PS-199 19 358 known. Due to the comparatively limited clamping forces, however, a lifting of the railing upwards can not be prevented with certainty.

Still other clamp connections, in which by a force-locking jamming of one or two inserted into a U-shaped bracket of a scaffold handle tuck / n of railings back to the scaffolding handle, an attachment of the railing on the scaffold handle can be achieved against vertical lifting, for example of the DE-A-42 34 473 and the DE-A-195 04 038 known. In these constructions, the bracing of the handrail brackets bent at right angles downwards becomes relative to the scaffold post with the aid of a horizontal transverse axis achieved pivotable eccentric lever. In these clamping structures comparatively large clamping forces must be applied to secure the railing against lifting up, which requires correspondingly high operating forces during locking and unlocking. In addition, the applications of these designs are limited to horizontal scaffolding structures in which the railing can be installed only from the same scaffold position, which may mean a security risk.

A second major group of railing attachment constructions relates to such solutions in which the railings are purely positively connected to the scaffolding posts.

In a first subgroup, transverse bolts projecting transversely to their longitudinal axes are fastened to the vertical framework supports for this purpose, on which the railings provided with matching through holes are attached. The first subgroup can be divided into two further groups:

In a first group of this first subgroup of the second main group cylinder bolts are used, which have at their free ends a vertical slot in which a Kippstiftlasche is pivotally mounted about a horizontal transverse axis. To attach a railing to the scaffold stems the Kippstiftlaschen must be transferred to a threading the provided with matching through holes railing tabs on the cylinder bolt enabling unlocking. After threading and attaching the perforated railing tabs the respective Kippstiftlasche must be transferred back into a vertical locking position, which is basically gravity-assisted reached by itself. If, however, which often occurs in practice, the free ends of the cylinder bolts, for example, with paint color, are dirty, it may cause malfunction, so that the affected Kippstiftlaschen then laboriously must be locked again. This means an unacceptably large effort or in the event of non-compliance, a significant security risk. Such constructions are for example from the DE-U-87 11 664 , of the DE-A-31 39 980 , of the DE-A-197 03 558 and the DE-A-10 2004 055 394 known.

A second group of the first subgroup of the second main group relates to similar constructions, which are therefore based on the same basic principle, namely to attach to scaffolding posts transversely projecting bolts on which are fitted with matching through holes railings. In these constructions, such as those from the DE-A-196 33 092 or the EP-A-1 262 611 However, no pivotable tilting tabs are used. In these fastening structures, the inner contour of the through holes of the railing and the outer contour of these receiving bolts are designed coordinated so that an attachment of the railing on the bolts only obliquely from below, ie from the underlying scaffold layer, is possible by the railing in an angle of less than 90 degrees to the longitudinal axis of the scaffold stems from below is placed on the bolt. Subsequently, by pivoting the railing upwards into a horizontal use or installation position at the same time a positive locking of the railing is achieved relative to the scaffold post also in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the Aufsteckbolzen. A horizontal attachment of Railing from the same scaffolding level is not possible with these designs.

An intermediate variant of the second main group is from the already mentioned above DE-A-10 2004 055 394 known. In this, now again provided with tilting lugs construction, the railing ends are provided with the insertion opening for the cylinder pin radially outwardly extending slots which are arranged at certain angles to the longitudinal axis of the railing and the insertion of the Kippstiftlasche and attaching the Gelanderendes also from the underlying scaffold position. After attaching the railing from below on the tilting pin tabs and on the cylinder pin is then achieved by pivoting the railing upwards in its horizontal use or installation position, again a positive locking in the direction of the transverse bolt.

However, all these the first subgroup and the intermediate variant of the second main group associated constructions have the disadvantage that when the ends of two railings are plugged on the bolt, the rear, that is closer to the scaffolding handle railing, can not be removed, without first the front, so the lying away from the scaffold post railing, with expanded.

Another construction relating to a railing attachment, which can be assigned to a second subgroup of the second main group, in which the railings are also purely positively connected to the scaffolding stems, is from the DD 90 210 A known. There is a tab on welded to a pipe stem, which profiled L-shaped to form a receptacle for vertical Gelanderleisten and bent upwards and is open at the top. In the area of the upper free end of the L-strap, this is provided with a vertical slot. Through this vertical slot protrudes a nose of a pivotable about a horizontal pivot axis case-latch, which is rotatably mounted on a horizontal bolt. The bolt is welded by bridging the vertical slot of the L-strap. For the purpose of attaching two railing strips or possibly only from a railing strip on the pipe stem or this is vertically introduced from above into the receptacle formed by the L-tab vertically downwards. As a result, the nose of the case latch is pivoted away into a release position. In the course of a further introduction of the respective guard rail, this is so far vertically introduced down until the nose of the case pawl gravitates back to its original position pivots back. In this case, or thereafter, the respective railing ledge comes to rest on the lower L-leg of the L-strap. To remove the two railing strips or possibly only one of the railing strips, the case latch must be pivoted by hand about its pivot axis upwards in a removal of the respective railing vertical upward enabling release position, whereupon the respective railing vertically upwards from the can be lifted out by the L-strap formed Geländeraufnahme.

In this railing attachment must by design between the upper edges of the guard rails to be secured and this against a vertical lift-locking nose of the case latch a pivoting the nose of the case latch enabling, be provided correspondingly large gap. As a result, the railing strips can be attached only very loose and with a considerable vertical play, which means a security risk. Furthermore, this construction requires by the standing out in the locking position laterally pawl comparatively much space and there is a danger that people get caught on the latch. Finally, there is a risk that the upwardly open L-strap bends away from the pipe handle under rough conditions from the pipe handle, so that then the railing rails are no longer secured against vertical lifting. This means a significant security risk.

It is an object of the invention to provide a support for a space structure with a fastener device for attaching a railing device to the support and a connection arrangement for a railing device, the at least one support for a space structure and a railing device which is attachable to the support by means of a fastener device and also to provide a method of attaching a railing device to a support with which as many of the prior art as possible are retained become known advantages the disadvantages described above are avoided, in particular with or with which advantageous possibilities for securing or locking the railing device and / or assembly and / or disassembly of Geländereinri as well as for a particularly stable construction.

Accordingly, the passage opening 57 in the position of use 34 of the support 32.1 here as a vertical, in the direction parallel to the longitudinal axis 33 of the support 32.1 extending receiving slot 63 designed. The holder 40 is designed with a bracket 65 made of flat material, which is a stamped part here, but which may also be designed in particular as a cast or forged part made of metal. This bracket 65 thus has the designed as a receiving slot 63 Through hole 57 for receiving the support member 56 of the railing device 28 on or limits this passage opening 57. The bracket 65 is arranged parallel to the longitudinal axis 33 of the support 32.1 and its legs are welded to the support 32.1.

The locking element 45 is here designed with a manually operable locking lever 70 which is fixed here on the in use position 34 of the support 32.1 upper leg of the holder 40 by means of a here designed as a rivet 66 and the pivot axis 50 containing fastener. The locking lever 70 is preferably made of plastic. As in particular from the FIGS. 7 a to 7 c and 8a and 8e in conjunction with the FIGS. 4 to 6 can be seen, the locking lever 70 has a perpendicular to the pivot axis 50 extending longitudinal slot 71, in which in the locking position 47 of the locking lever 70, a majority of the vertical support member 44 of the holder 40 and the bracket 65 is added. The locking lever 70 consists of a pivoting and locking part 62 and an integrally connected thereto actuating part 60.

Further, the pivot axis 50 in the use position 34 of the support 32 in a vertical distance 52 above in the locked position 47th located locking surface 46 and also arranged at a vertical distance 53 above the support surface 43 of the support element 42. This distance 53 is greater than the height 67 of one or of the supporting surface 43 of the support element 42 of the holder 40 resting support part 56 of the railing device 28th

The invention also includes a connection arrangement 80 for a railing device 28, the at least one inventive support 32.1, in particular a vertical handle, made of metal, for a frame 20, in particular a facade scaffold, a podium, a staircase or the like space frame and at least one, especially as Single or double railing designed, preferably with or as a railing rod 28.1, 28.2 designed railing device 28 which is fastened by means of a fastening device 38 to the support 32.1, wherein the support 32.1 comprises a holder 40 for the railing device 28, wherein the holder 40th , Preferably captive, in particular permanently, for example by welding, is connected or attached to the support 32 and wherein the holder 40 in a first direction 41 transversely, preferably perpendicular to the longitudinal axis 33 of the support 32 away from the latter extending support member 42 with an i n use position 34 of the support 32.1 horizontal supporting surface 43 for vertical support of the railing device 28, on which a, preferably in the region of an end 58.1, 58.2 of the railing device 28 and the balustrade 28.1, 28.2, arranged support member 56 of the railing device 28 is supported, and wherein the fastening device 38 further comprises a fixed, preferably captive, connected to the support 32 locking member 45 with a locking surface 46 for positive, preferably clamping force, locking the railing device 28 against vertical removal of the same in the use position 34 of the support 32 upwards, wherein the locking element 45 about a pivot axis 50 of an unlocking position 48, in which the railing device 28 on the support surface 43 of the support member 42 of the holder 40 can be placed or from the holder 40th is removable, preferably manually, in a locking position 47 is pivotable, and vice versa, in which the railing device 28 is locked by means of the locking element 45 against removal of the holder 40 at least in one direction and in which the railing device 28 against removal in any direction of is secured to the holder, wherein the locking element 45 from a locking position 47 in which the railing device 28 by means of the locking element 45 against removal from the holder 40, in the use position 34 of the support 32.1 upwards in the direction, preferably parallel to the longitudinal axis 33 of Support 32.1 positively, preferably without clamping force, is locked, can be converted into an unlocking position 48, and vice versa, in which the railing device 28 without prior lifting in the first direction 41 of the support surface 43 of the support member 42, in the use position 34 of the support 32 for horizontally in a second direction 55 transversely, preferably perpendicular, to the longitudinal axis 33 of the support 32 and also transversely, preferably perpendicular, to the first direction 41, preferably after previous, possibly taking place in the limits specified by the holder 40, in particular only slight or slight, vertical, lifting from the support surface 43 of the support member 42 upwards, is removable from the holder 40.

In the exemplary embodiment, the fastening device 38 and the railing device 28 are designed coordinated so that the railing device 28, although the locking element 45 is in the locking position 47, in the use position 34 of the support 32 from below, in particular obliquely from below, on the support surface 43 of Support member 42 of the holder 40 can be placed or can be hung there, and starting from this position can be pivoted upwards and into a mounting position 49, in which the railing device 28 is secured against removal from the holder 40 in any direction.

Like, for example FIG. 10 can be seen, the holder 40 has a fully closed passage opening 57 in the form of a receiving slot 63 for insertion of an end 58.1, 58.2 of the at least one railing device 28 and the railing rod 28.1, 28.2, through which the end 58.1, 58.2 of the railing device 28 and des Railing rod 28.1, 28.2 is inserted through (see. Figures 5 and 6 ).

The passage opening 57 is, in the position of use 34 of the support 32, designed as a vertical parallel to the longitudinal axis 33 of the support 32 extending receiving slot 63, in which the support member 56 of the railing device 28, here the end 58.1, 58.2 a balancing rod 28.1, 28.2 or both railing rods 28.1, 28.2, inserted or pushed through ( Figures 5 and 6 ).

The receiving slot 63 has a height 68 which is greater than the width or the height 67 of at least one end 58.1, 58.2 of the ends 58.1, 58.2 of the railing device 28 or of the railing rod 28.1, 28.2. Further, the passage opening 57 has a width 59 which is greater than the thickness or width 82 of the support member 56 of the railing device 28 and the railing rod 28.1, 28.2. In the embodiment, the passage opening 57 has a width 59 which is slightly larger than twice the thickness or width 82 of the support member 56 of the railing device 28 or of the railing rod 28.1, 28.2, so that in the holder 40 so up to two such railing devices 28, 28 or railing rods 28.1, 28.2 can be suspended and locked by means of the locking lever 40.

The intended for resting on the support element 42 of the holder 40 ends 58.1, 58.2 of, preferably designed as or with a railing rod 28.1, 28.2, railing device 28 are designed flattened.

The detailed design of a handrail element according to the invention, in this case a handrail rod 28.1 or 28.2 according to the invention, will be described below on the basis of FIG FIG. 9 described.

The railing device 28 has in the region of at least one end 58.1, 58.2, in this case in the region of its two flattened ends 58.1, 58.2, in each case one extending parallel to the longitudinal axis 83 of the end 58.1, 58.2 or the railing rod 28.1, 28.2, with the support part 56th for resting on the bearing surface 43 of the support element 42 of the holder 40 inwardly limited, and outwardly, respectively transversely or perpendicular to the longitudinal axis 83 of the railing device 28 open first recess 86. This is bounded by a first wall portion 87 extending transversely, here approximately perpendicular to the longitudinal axis 83 of the end 58.1, 58.2 or the railing device 28, in this case the railing rod 28.1, 28.2, which here is delimited in the form of a hook-shaped nose 88.

The first recess 86 is bounded in the direction of the longitudinal axis 83 by two spaced-apart wall parts 87 and 89. The wall portion 89 is concavely rounded (at 91) and the nose 88 limiting wall portion 87 is provided with an insertion 92nd designed. In the region of the first recess 86, a second recess 94 adjoins the first wall part 87 or the nose 88. This is limited by a parallel here to the longitudinal axis 83 of the railing device 28 and the railing rod 28.1, 28.2 extending and recessed relative to the first recess 86 bearing surface 95 of the support member 56 and two, here parallel, a support surface spacing 98 to each other having support surfaces 97.1, 97.2 limited. These support surfaces 97.1, 97.2 here extend perpendicular to the longitudinal axis 83 of the end 58.1, 58.2 or the railing device 28 or the railing rod 28.1, 28.2. The support surface spacing 98 of these support surfaces 97.1, 97.2 is greater than the width 99 of the support element 42 of the support 40 in the region of the support surface 43 of the support element 42, so that the railing device 28, respectively the respective railing rod 28.1, 28.2, there with its second recess 94 positively can engage.

The support surface distance 98 is preferably about 1.5 to 3 times the width 99 of the support element 42 in the region of the support surface 43, so that manufacturing and in particular installation tolerances can be compensated so that it is always ensured that the railing device 28 and the Railing rod 28.1, 28.2, in each case reliably and safely in the region of its or its two ends 58.1, 58.2 in each case a holder 40 of a support 32.1 according to the invention can be mounted in installation or use position 49.

The length 93 of the first recess 86 extending in the direction of the longitudinal axis 83 of the end 58.1, 58.2 or of the railing rod 28.1, 28.2 is much larger than the first measured in the same direction distance 100 between the free end 101 of the respective end 58.1, 58.2 of the railing device 28 and the baluster 28.1, 28.2 associated support surface 97.2 of the second recess 94 and this free end 101 of the railing device 28 and the railing rod 28.1, 28.2.

An essential feature of the connection arrangement according to the invention is also that the distance 51 between the support surface 43 of the support element 42 and the locking surface 46 of the locking element 45 in the locking position 47 is greater than the largest distance between the of the free end 101 of the railing device 28 and the railing bar 28.1, 28.2 pointing away and the first recess 86 delimiting surface 90 of the first wall portion 87 and the nose 88 and this free end 101 of the railing device 28 and the railing rod 28.1, 28.2, in particular greater than the largest distance 102 between the from the free end 101 of the railing device 28 and the railing rod 28.1, 28.2 pointing away and the second recess 94 limiting support surface 97.2 and this free end 101 of the railing device 28 and the railing rod 28.1, 28.2.

A second embodiment of a support or fastening device according to the invention for fixing railing devices is with his or her parts in the FIGS. 11 to 18 illustrated. In this case, the same parts are denoted by the same reference numerals with respect to the previously discussed embodiments. In this second embodiment, the holder 140 and the bracket 165, the locking element 145 and the locking lever 170, the fixing means containing the pivot axis 50 66 and also the railing device 128; 128.1, 128.2 slightly differently designed than the previously described parts 40 and 65, 45 and 70, 166 and 28; 28.1, 28.2. It is understood, however, that in particular the fastening means and / or the railing device can also be designed the same, as in the embodiments described above.

The exact design of the locking lever 170 acting as a locking element 170 according to the second embodiment is particularly in the FIGS. 12a to 12d and 13a to 13f shown. This embodiment differs from that in particular in the FIGS. 7a to 7d and 8 a to 8 f shown in the first embodiment in that in the open position 48 the handle 32.1 facing region of the articulation and locking member 162 between the pivot axis 50 and the locking surface 46; 46.1, 46.2 a here approximately rectangular limited recess 210 is provided. The inner contour of this recess 210 corresponds to the inner contour of the passage opening 57 of the holder 140 in the region of its upper end. This leads into the in FIG. 11 shown opening position of the locking lever 170 to the fact that the receiving slot 63 and the passage opening 57 is not covered or covered by parts of the locking lever 170. As a result, it is achieved in this open position 48 that the complete opening cross section of the through opening 57 or of the receiving slot 63 remains free for hanging or unhooking railing devices or railing rods 28 or 128. In this way, the hanging or unhooking the railing facilities can be facilitated because it does not cause any obstructions due to any in the through hole 57 and in the Receiving slot 63 protruding parts of the locking lever can come.

To ensure that the locking lever 170 in the in FIG. 11 shown opening position 48 non-gravity yet partially protrudes into the through hole 57 and into the receiving slot 63, the shape or contour of the Andrückkörpers 172 is slightly changed in the locking lever 170 compared to the locking lever 70. The Andrückkörper 177 is now designed such that it, as in FIG. 16 shown in the said or desired open position 48 abuts against the designed as a pin counter body 73. In this way, a gravity-induced (further) pivoting of the locking lever 170 is prevented in this open position 48 down. For this purpose, the Andrückkörper 172 is no longer designed here as an eccentric body. Nevertheless, the Andrückkörper 172 is designed in this embodiment with a convexly outwardly curving Andrückwand which is separated from a slot 85 of the remaining rear part of the articulation and locking member 162. In this way, the Andrückkörper 172 in the course of a deliberate manual pivoting of the locking lever 170 of the in the Figures 11 . 16 and 17 shown opening or unlocking position in the in FIG. 18 shown locking or locking position 47 are pressed back resiliently under exercise of a certain pivoting force so that it can pass through the acting as a counter-body 73 pin 77.

Apart from the measures described above, further measures are provided in this second embodiment, by which it is ensured that the Locking lever 170, viewed from its closed or locking position 47, only by a certain maximum opening angle 265 about its pivot axis 50 can be pivoted upwards. Preferably, this maximum opening angle 265 is less than about 60 degrees, in particular less than or equal to about 45 degrees (see in particular FIG. 17 ). As a result, excessive overhanging of the locking lever 170 in its open position 48 can be avoided, which accordingly reduces the risk of people being caught at the locking lever 170 located in the opening or unlocking position 48. As such a further measure is initially provided that the locking lever 170 has a stopper body 209 which extends horizontally between the separated by the longitudinal slot 71 bearing bodies 208.1 and 208.2. Furthermore, it is provided that the holder 140 has at its upper end a nose 206 which forms a stop 207 for the stop body 209 of the locking lever 170 or its outer surface facing away from the handle 32.1 ( FIG. 17 ). The stop 207 of the holder 140 and the stop member 209 of the locking lever 170 are designed coordinated so that the locking lever 170, as mentioned above, only about a certain maximum opening angle 265 about its pivot axis 50 can be pivoted upward, here about 45 degrees is.

According to the second exemplary embodiment, the locking lever 170 is no longer fastened and supported on the holder 140 with the aid of a rivet acting as a fastening means but now with the aid of a pin 166 which likewise functions as a fastening means, here preferably over its entire length, in particular slotted, preferably hollow or sleeve-shaped, clamping pin 166 is designed. This one is especially good in FIG. 18 to see. The clamping pin 166 is clamped non-positively on a receiving bore of the holder 140. On the clamping pin 166 thus clamped, the locking lever 170 is rotatably mounted about its pivot axis 50. For this purpose, the two bearing bodies 208.1 and 208.2 of the locking lever 170 each have a bearing bore or bore 211.1 and 211.2, whose inner diameter is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the clamping pin 166 in these areas. It is understood that instead of a clamping pin, other pins or bolts may be provided, for example, a grooved pin. This can be provided centrally with a thickening, which is then clamped there when pressed into the bore of the holder 140 under press fit or will. Such construction are easier to manufacture compared to a fastening with a rivet and, if necessary, even released again and are also cheaper in the rest.

A second embodiment of a railing device 128; 128.1, 128.2 is in particular in FIG. 14 illustrated.
