In den Fig. 1 und 2 ist ein Bergegerät 1 mit zangenartig verstellbaren, über eine lineare Antriebsvorrichtung 2 an einem Zylinderkörper 3 verstellbar gelagerten Spreizarmen 4, 5 gezeigt.In the Fig. 1 and 2 is a recovery device 1 with pliers adjustable, over a linear drive device 2 on a cylinder body 3 adjustably mounted Spreizarmen 4, 5 shown.

Die Antriebsvorrichtung 2 ist im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel durch einen von einem Hydraulikaggregat 6 über Zu- und Ableitungen 7 versorgten und einen rohrförmigen Handgriff 8 mit in diesem integrierten Steuermitteln 9 aufweisenden Hydraulikzylinder 10 mit einem in linearer Richtung verstellbaren Stellmittel 11 gebildet.The drive device 2 is formed in the embodiment shown by one of a hydraulic unit 6 via supply and discharge lines 7 and a tubular handle 8 with in this integrated control means 9 having hydraulic cylinder 10 with an adjustable adjusting means 11 in the linear direction.

An einem vom Stellmittel 11 durchragten Stirnflansch 12 des Hydraulikzylinders 10 ist ein Lagergehäuse 13 ausgebildet das im Wesentlichen durch zwei parallel in einem Abstand zueinander angeordneten Lagerplatten 14, 15 gebildet ist. Weiters weist das Traggehäuse 3 bevorzugt einen dieses in einem Abstand umfassenden Tragegriff 16 auf.A bearing housing 13 is formed on an end flange 12 of the hydraulic cylinder 10 which is projecting through the adjusting means 11 and is essentially formed by two bearing plates 14, 15 arranged parallel to one another at a distance from one another. Furthermore, the support housing 3 preferably has a carrying handle 16 which comprises this at a distance.

An den Lagerplatten 14, 15 sind eine Schwenkachse 17 ausbildend, welche zu einer Längsmittelachse 18 des Zylinderkörper 3 senkrecht verläuft, Schwenklager 19 einer Schwenklageranordnung 20 für die Spreizarme 4, 5 angeordnet in welchen die Spreizarme 4, 5 um die Schwenkachse 17 - gemäß Doppelpfeile 21 - schwenkbar gelagert sind.On the bearing plates 14, 15 are a pivot axis 17 forming, which is perpendicular to a longitudinal center axis 18 of the cylinder body 3, pivot bearings 19 a pivot bearing assembly 20 for the spreading arms 4, 5 arranged in which the spreading arms 4, 5 about the pivot axis 17 - according to double arrows 21 - are pivotally mounted.

Eine Antriebsverbindung zwischen dem linear verstellbaren Stellmittel 11 des Hydraulikzylinders 10 und den Spreizarmen 4, 5 wird durch mit dem Stellmittel 11 und jeweils einem der Spreizarme 4, 5 gelenkig verbundenen Übertragungshebeln 22, 23 gebildet.A drive connection between the linearly adjustable adjusting means 11 of the hydraulic cylinder 10 and the Spreizarmen 4, 5 is formed by with the adjusting means 11 and one of the spreading arms 4, 5 articulated transmission levers 22, 23.

Durch eine exzentrische Anordnung im Bezug auf die Längsmittelachse 18 von Schwenklagern 24,25, in denen die Übertragungshebel 22, 23 mit den Spreizarmen 4, 5 gelenkig verbunden sind, wird eine Übertragung der Linearverstellung des Stellmittels 11 in eine Schwenkbewegung der Spreizarme 4, 5, bei einer Verstellung des Stellmittels 11 erreicht, wobei bei einem Ausfahren des Stellmittels 11 die Spreizarme 4, 5 aufeinander zubewegt und beim Einfahren des Stellmittels 11 die Spreizarme 4, 5 in eine Öffnungsstellung verstellt werden.By an eccentric arrangement with respect to the longitudinal center axis 18 of pivot bearings 24,25 in which the transmission levers 22, 23 are pivotally connected to the Spreizarmen 4, 5, a transfer of the linear adjustment of the actuating means 11 in a pivoting movement of the spreading arms 4, 5, achieved with an adjustment of the actuating means 11, wherein in an extension of the actuating means 11, the spreading arms 4, 5 moved towards each other and the insertion arms 11, the spreading arms 4, 5 are adjusted to an open position.

Ein Verstellweg des Stellmittels 11 ist in Verbindung mit der Auslegung der Hebelgeometrie derart ausgelegt, dass in einer ausgefahrenen Endstellung des Stellmittels 11 die Innenseitenflächen 26, 27 fluchtend mit der Längsmittelachse 18 verlaufen. In einer Öffnungsstellung der Spreizarme 4, 5 beträgt ein Winkel 28 zwischen den Innenseitenflächen 26, 27 etwa 75° bis 90°.An adjustment of the actuating means 11 is designed in connection with the interpretation of the lever geometry such that in an extended end position of the actuating means 11, the inner side surfaces 26, 27 are aligned with the longitudinal central axis 18. In an open position of the spreading arms 4, 5, an angle 28 between the inner side surfaces 26, 27 is about 75 ° to 90 °.

Diese Ausbildung ermöglicht mit dem Bergegerät 1 auf ein nicht weiter dargestelltes Objekt eine Quetschkraft zwischen den einander gegenüber liegenden Innenseitenflächen 26, 27 bei einer Verstellung der Spreizarme 4, 5 in Richtung der Längsmittelachse 18 auszuüben, wie auch eine Aufweitekraft bei einer Verstellung der Spreizarme 4, 5 in eine Öffnungsstellung mit einander entgegen gesetzten Außenseitenflächen 29, 30 der Spreizarme 4, 5 auszuüben.This training allows with the recovery device 1 on a not further shown object, a squeezing force between the opposing inner side surfaces 26, 27 at an adjustment of the spreading arms 4, 5 in the direction of the longitudinal central axis 18 exercise, as well as a Aufweitekraft at an adjustment of the spreading 4, 5 in an open position with opposite outer side surfaces 29, 30 of the spreading arms 4, 5 exercise.

Damit eignet sich das Bergegerät 1 zum Bergen von, z.B. mit einem Fahrzeug verunfallten Personen aus einem Fahrzeuginnenraum, der aufgrund von Deformationen des Fahrzeugauf baues nur durch gewaltsames Schaffen von Öffnungen, z.B. durch Quetschvorgänge an Karosserieteilen oder Aufspreizen von Objekten, wie Türen, Dachöffnungen etc., zugänglich gemacht werden kann.Thus, the recovery equipment 1 is suitable for recovering, e.g. persons injured with a vehicle from a vehicle interior, which due to deformations of the vehicle body, are created only by the forcible creation of openings, e.g. can be made accessible by crimping on body parts or spreading of objects such as doors, roof openings, etc.

In den Fig. 3 und 4 ist nunmehr eine Ausbildung der Spreizarme 4, 5 des erfindungsgemäßen Bergegeräts 1 im Detail gezeigt.In the 3 and 4 Now is an embodiment of the spreading arms 4, 5 of the invention Recovery equipment 1 shown in detail.

Nach dieser Ausbildung sind die Spreizarme 4, 5 als Schmiedeformteile aus Rohlingen aus einer hochfesten Al-Legierung in einer Schmiedepresse gefertigt, wodurch eine hohe Endqualität und geringer Nachbearbeitungsaufwand erreicht wird. Gleichzeitig wird durch die Wahl des Materials eine hohe mechanische Festigkeit zur Übertragung hoher Kräfte erreicht, wie sie bei der Anwendung des Bergegerätes 1 auftreten. Neben einer hohen Verformungsfestigkeit ist aber auch von wesentlicher Bedeutung für einen ungestörten Langzeiteinsatz eine hohe Verschleißfestigkeit an den Angriffsflächen der Spreizarme 4, 5 sowie eine Abgleitsicherheit von Objektteilen, an denen die Spreizarme 4, 5 angesetzt werden, zu erreichen.After this training, the spreading arms 4, 5 are made as forged parts from blanks made of a high-strength Al alloy in a forging press, whereby a high final quality and low Nachbearbeitungsaufwand is achieved. At the same time a high mechanical strength for the transmission of high forces is achieved by the choice of material, as they occur in the application of the recovery device 1. In addition to a high resistance to deformation but is also essential for undisturbed long-term use high wear resistance at the attack surfaces of the spreading arms 4, 5 and a Abgleitsicherheit of object parts to which the spreading arms 4, 5 are recognized to achieve.

Zum Erzielen eines hohen Widerstandes gegen ein Abgleiten ist es aus dem Stand der Technik bekannt, an den Innenseitenflächen 26, 27 und gegebenenfalls auch an den Außenseitenflächen 29, 30 rippenartige Erhöhungen 31 auszubilden, wobei diese hinsichtlich der Dauerstandfestigkeit die vom Werkstoff der Spreizarme 4, 5 vorgegebene Verschleißfestigkeit gegen Abrieb aufweisen und damit die Standzeit durch Verschleiß kurz ist.To achieve a high resistance to sliding, it is known from the prior art, on the inner side surfaces 26, 27 and optionally also on the outer side surfaces 29, 30 rib-like elevations 31 form, which in terms of fatigue strength by the material of the spreading arms 4, the fifth given wear resistance against abrasion and thus the service life is short by wear.

Aus dem Stand der Technik ist es weiter bekannt, und wie beispielsweise auch gezeigt an ausragenden Endbereichen 32 manuell lösbar befestigte Spreizerspitzen 33 anzuordnen. Diese sind bevorzugt aus hochfestem und verschleißfestem, bevorzugt vergütetem, Werkstoff gefertigt. Sie sind für unterschiedliche Verwendungsfälle konzipiert und für ein rasches Wechseln sind Bolzen 34 als Befestigungsmittel 35 vorgesehen die manuell entfernbar sind. Zur Übertragung hoher Kräfte ist weiters ein Formschluss zwischen den Endbereichen 32 der Spreizarme 4, 5 und den Spreizerspitzen 33 vorgesehen.It is further known from the state of the art, and, for example, to arrange spreader tips 33 which are fastened manually releasably secured to protruding end regions 32, for example. These are preferably made of high-strength and wear-resistant, preferably tempered, material. They are designed for different applications and for a quick change bolts 34 are provided as fasteners 35 which are manually removable. For transmitting high forces further a positive connection between the end portions 32 of the spreading arms 4, 5 and the Spreizerspitzen 33 is provided.

Weiter ist an entgegen gesetzten Angriffsflächen 36, 37 der Spreizerspitze 34 eine parallel ausgerichtete Zahnung 38 vorgesehen durch die ein Abgleiten beim Einsatz verhindert wird.Next, a parallel aligned teeth 38 is provided on opposite attack surfaces 36, 37 of Spreizerspitze 34 by a sliding during use is prevented.

Die Spreizarme 4, 5 sind bevorzugt an den Innenseitenflächen 26, 27 und den Außenseitenflächen 29, 30 mit Oberflächenbereichen 41 versehen, die eine gegenüber benachbarten Bereichen 42 größere Verschleißfestigkeit dadurch aufweisen, dass bevorzugt in einem aus dem Stand der Technik bekannten Laser- Dispergierverfahren in diesen Oberflächenbereichen 41 Hartstoffe in das Material der Spreizarme 4, 5, eingebracht werden, wodurch die erhöhte Verschleißfestigkeit erreicht wird.The spreader arms 4, 5 are preferably provided on the inner side surfaces 26, 27 and the outer side surfaces 29, 30 with surface regions 41 which have a greater wear resistance relative to adjacent regions 42, preferably in a laser dispersing process known from the prior art Surface regions 41 hard materials in the material of the spreading arms 4, 5, are introduced, whereby the increased Wear resistance is achieved.

In diesen Oberflächenbereichen 41 sind weiters bevorzugt in Richtung und einen Teil einer Dicke 43 erstreckend und parallel zueinander verlaufend die Erhöhungen 31 in Form von Rippen 44 angeordnet welche die Oberflächen 39, 40 überragen und durch eine Vergrößerung des Volumens des Grundmaterials der Spreizarme 4, 5 durch den eingebrachten Hartstoff gebildet sind und damit sowohl die Abgleitsicherheit wie auch die höhere Verschleißfestigkeit in diesem Oberflächenbereich 41 gleichermaßen erreicht wird.In these surface regions 41 are further preferably extending in the direction and part of a thickness 43 extending parallel to each other, the elevations 31 in the form of ribs 44 which extend beyond the surfaces 39, 40 and by increasing the volume of the base material of the spreading arms 4, 5 by the introduced hard material are formed and thus both the Abgleitsicherheit and the higher wear resistance in this surface area 41 is achieved equally.

Durch die Rippen 44 ist bereits bei einem größeren Winkel 28 der einander gegenüberliegenden Innenseitenflächen 26, 27 ein sicheres Fassen eines Objektes 44 gewährleistet. Dasselbe gilt ebenso für an den Außenseitenflächen 29, 30 vorgesehene Oberflächenbereiche 41, die ebenfalls durch einen Laser- Dispergiervorgang behandelt sind und vorzugsweise mit den Rippen 44 versehen sind.By the ribs 44, a secure grasping of an object 44 is ensured even at a larger angle 28 of the opposite inner side surfaces 26, 27. The same also applies to surface areas 41 provided on the outer side surfaces 29, 30, which are likewise treated by a laser dispersion process and are preferably provided with the ribs 44.

Zusätzlich zu der durch die Rippen 44 bewirkten Abgleitsicherheit wird insbesondere für eine durch einen Quetschvorgang vorzunehmende Umformung eines Objektes, durch eine höhere Flächenlast infolge des linienförmigen Kontaktes der Rippen 44 mit dem Objekt 45, der Umformvorgang beschleunigt.In addition to the slip resistance caused by the ribs 44, the forming process is accelerated in particular for a deformation of an object to be performed by a squeezing operation, due to a higher surface load as a result of the linear contact of the ribs 44 with the object 45.

Die Oberflächenbereiche 41 an den Innenseitenflächen 26, 27 und gegebenenfalls an den Außenseitenflächen 29, 30 erstrecken sich in Längsrichtung der Spreizarme 4, 5 über einen Teil der Oberflächen 39,40 zwischen den Fingerfortsätzen 33 und dem Lagergehäuse 13.The surface regions 41 on the inner side surfaces 26, 27 and optionally on the outer side surfaces 29, 30 extend in the longitudinal direction of the spreading arms 4, 5 over part of the surfaces 39, 40 between the finger extensions 33 and the bearing housing 13.

In der Fig. 5 ist eine weitere Ausführungsform des Bergegeräts 1 gezeigt, wobei wiederum für gleiche Teile gleiche Bezugszeichen bzw. Bauteilbezeichnungen wie in den vorangegangenen Fig.1 bis 4 verwendet werden.
