Description

The invention relates to a construction of a frame support, in particular a load tower support, preferably a support frame, in particular a scaffold, preferably a shoring tower, scaffolding tower, or load tower, certain, closed vertical frame comprising at least two, preferably exactly two parallel vertical supports, in a Horizontal spacing are arranged to each other and each having an upper end and a lower end, and at least two, preferably exactly two parallel horizontal arms comprises, which are arranged at a vertical distance from each other and each transverse between the at least two vertical supports, in particular perpendicular, extend to these vertical supports, wherein a first horizontal arm of these horizontal arms at both ends is welded to each one of the vertical supports in the region of the upper ends, and wherein a second horizontal arm of these horizontal arms at both ends also to these two n vertical supports in the region of the lower ends is welded, and wherein the vertical frame with at least one, preferably with a single or only with a first and with a second, diagonal bar is stiffened extending between two of the vertical supports and two of the horizontal arms, preferably between two of the vertical supports and the first horizontal arm and the second horizontal arm, and on two of the vertical supports or on two of the horizontal arms, preferably the first horizontal arm and the second horizontal arm, or welded to both a vertical support of the vertical supports and to a horizontal arm of the horizontal arms.

Such vertical frames have been known for decades generally as a structural component of frame supports, in particular load tower supports, or of supporting frameworks, in particular scaffolds, or towers built therefrom, so supporting towers towers, especially scaffold towers or towers. Such frame supports are also referred to as a plug frame scaffold, in which disk-shaped standard parts, in particular the vertical frame, are assembled into towers. The advantage of the frame supports lies in the prefabricated modular system, which allows installation by untrained persons. Using foot and head spindles, the height can be fine tuned. With the help of the foot spindles also uneven floors can be easily bridged. By means of the head spindles, the supports, for example head forks for yoke beams, in particular squared timbers and the like, can be adjusted to different heights. Such frame supports have become known under the name of tower supports.

The above-mentioned vertical frame can also essential components of support structures or so-called scaffoldings form. Shoring stands in particular non-permanent, so only temporary, structures made of steel or wood, understood with a relatively short life and high frequency of use. They are assembled for the respective purpose from several individual components and taken apart after fulfillment of their purpose again.

Scaffolds serve to remove high vertical loads. These are usually support and / or concreting loads during the construction phase. Support frames thus serve, for example, for supporting steel retaining construction, interventions, conversions or concreting loads during concreting, as long as the concrete is not yet load-bearing. In this case, in addition to the weight of the concrete, the shoring must also bear the weight of the formwork and the traffic loads during concreting. Scaffolds thus serve for the temporary support or support of formwork for fresh concrete as well as components made of steel, wood or finished parts.

The payloads to be picked up by scaffolds are high in comparison to the deadweight of the scaffold. Scaffolding is sometimes referred to as scaffolding, and vice versa, where it is the term scaffolding is a very old name. Lehr- or shoring may be in the form of one or more interconnected by connecting elements towers, so as a supporting framework or towers, be constructed. In this case, a plurality of identical or similar constructed, modular units in projectile or height blocks or so-called shots are usually arranged one above the other and thereby set against each other. For this purpose, today predominantly tubular steel bar structures used. In this case, which are also known as stems and usually made of steel tubes vertical supports of the respective vertical frame by means of pipe connectors and the like up or nested, usually two equal, horizontally spaced vertical frame are used per height block or shot, the in particular via horizontally spaced diagonal struts connected to each other and stiffened with each other. In this case, so-called cross diagonals or diagonal crosses, consisting of two intersecting and a common vertical plane spanning diagonals can be used.

The shoring generally has a square or rectangular plan, d. H. the two horizontally spaced vertical frames each spanning a vertical frame plane are connected to one another by means of releasable diagonals which extend perpendicularly to the vertical frame planes, optionally also via additional detachable horizontal struts, with the formation of such floor plans.

In this way, one bar structure per height block or per shot is obtained, which is delimited laterally by bars which span four vertical planes, wherein adjacent vertical planes are perpendicular to one another.

In the construction of support frames with a square outline often the two vertical frame per height block or shot are offset by 90 degrees to each other to increase the stability of the support frame. Such constructed from prefabricated, closed vertical frame shoring can be clearly arranged, built up quickly and easily and dismantled. Due to the comparatively small number of basic components required per height block, the handling and transport of such supporting frameworks can be realized simply and cost-effectively.

The connecting the vertical frame diagonals are predominantly either via tilting pins and welded to the stems of the vertical frame horizontal cross bolt on which their perforated ends are plugged, connected to the stems or the vertical frame or attached at their ends Einrastklauen, each with a the horizontal struts of the vertical frame are locked.

Other scaffolds or scaffolds have become known based on scaffolding components of so-called modular scaffolding. These are constructed of separate, individual scaffolding elements, for example of stems and horizontal and / or diagonal connecting elements. The connecting elements have at their ends serving as holding devices connection heads, by means of which they can be suspended in receiving elements, so-called connection node, and fixed thereto. These connection nodes are at regular longitudinal intervals, ie in a certain grid, along the stems attached to these. As horizontal and / or diagonal connecting elements, in particular longitudinal bars, cross bars and / or diagonal bars can be used. From these individual components can be built in a variety of ways very stable and resistant to bending and torsion scaffolding. Such a modular scaffolding system the applicant has established itself as the Layher all-round scaffold as a synonym for modular scaffolding on the market.

With its unique connection technology, the Applicant's so-called Allrond node has replaced conventional scaffolding technology. The individual Allround scaffold elements can be used to realize applications in a unique range of applications. On every construction site, in industry, in chemistry, in power plants and in shipyards, in the event sector, for example on podiums and stairs, as a work protection, facade or scaffold, as interior, driving or ceiling scaffolding and / or on the most difficult Floor plans and architectures, and with increased safety requirements, Applicant's Allrond scaffolding system excellently meets all these tasks and requirements.

The vertical scaffolding posts of this modular scaffold, which are designed with round tubes, are provided at regular longitudinal intervals with so-called perforated discs, which are fastened to the pedestals by welding. These perforated discs are arranged concentrically to the stems and surround the respective stem in the manner of a flange in full. The perforated disks have a plurality of small and large openings, which are alternately arranged at equal circumferential angles to each other. As a result, the connecting heads of horizontal and / or diagonal connecting or scaffolding elements, in particular of longitudinal and / or horizontal bars and diagonal bars, can be suspended at these openings, in total preferably up to eight such holding devices or connecting elements.

The connection heads each have an upper and a lower head part, each having a wedge opening for a wedge which can be inserted through these wedge openings and through one of the apertures of the associated perforated disk, by means of which the slot provided with a slot provided between the upper head part and the lower head part and onto the Perforated disk plugged connection head is festkeilbar to the stem.

The connection heads of such a modular framework are usually connected as separate components, ie in multiple pieces, with the respective rod-shaped connecting element by welding. Such connection heads together with perforated discs and connecting elements are for example from the DE-PS 24 49 124 , of the DE 37 02 057 A or the parallel EP 0 276 487 B1 , of the DE 39 34 857 A1 or the parallel EP 0 423 516 B2 , of the DE 198 06 094 A1 or the parallel EP 0 936 327 B1 and the parallel EP 1 452 667 B1 become known to the applicant. Alternative perforated disk designs go for example from the DE 39 09 809 A1 or the parallel EP 0 389 933 B1 and the DE 200 12 598 U1 as well as the parallel WO 02/06610 A1 and the parallel EP 1 301 673 A1 the applicant. A scaffolding tube of a metal tube framework, in which the scaffold tube is integrally and materially provided with a molded connection head, for example, from the DE 34 07 425 A1 the applicant.

From the above-mentioned scaffolding elements, ie the provided with a plurality of perforated discs stems and provided with slotted connection heads rod elements, such as the diagonal and the cross bar, can be, inter alia, vertical frame elements or vertical frame build, which may have the aforementioned designs.

The Fig. 1 shows a first embodiment of a support frame according to the invention 21.1, which is constructed as an inventive support frame tower 22.1 according to a first embodiment. This shoring 21.1 or this shoring tower has a square plan 98 ( Fig. 3 ). The shoring tower 22.1 is constructed from frame supports 20.1, 20.1 according to the invention according to a first embodiment. These constructions are based on the use of several inventive vertical frame 25; 25.1, 25.2. These are each arranged in pairs at a horizontal distance from each other, which is determined here by the length of a provided with known connection heads 250 of a modular scaffold system, here the Layher Allround scaffold system, horizontal cross bar or scaffold bar 28.1. This horizontal distance of the two respective vertical frame 25; 25.1, 25.2 corresponds to each other here the horizontal distance 31 of the longitudinal axes 32; 32.1, 32.2 of the parallel vertical supports 30; 30.1, and 30.2; 30.3 and 30.4 of the respective vertical frame 25.1, 25.2 (cf. FIGS. 6 and 7 ).

With two of these paired, identical or identical vertical frame 25; 25.1, 25.2 are so-called height blocks 100; 100.1, 100.2, 100.3, 100.4, 100.5, 100.6. The first height block assigned to the ground 100.1 is designed as a so-called compensation height block 100.1. This is arranged with two horizontally spaced, serving as a balance frame 25.1, 25.1 vertical frame 25.1, 25.1, with two connecting these vertical diagonals 24.1, 24.1 and two each in the region of the spanned vertical plane arranged, also the two vertical frame 25.1, 25.1 connecting horizontal scaffolding bar or crossbar 28.1, 28.1 constructed.

The respective vertical diagonal 24.1, 24.1 and the respective scaffolding bars 28.1, 28.1 are known scaffolding components of a modular scaffolding, in this case the Layher Allround scaffolding system. Accordingly, each vertical diagonal. 24.1, 24.1 at its two ends to a known connection head 150 which is hinged to the diagonal brace and having a formed between an upper head portion 156 and a lower head portion 157 slot 158, via which the respective connection head 150 is attached to one of the two perforated disks 45 provided on the respective vertical support 30.1, 30.2 of the respective compensation frame 25.1, 25.1. The connection of the vertical diagonal 24.1, 24.1 with the two compensating frames 25.1, 25.1 is carried out in a conventional manner by means of a respective releasable wedge 65, for clamping the components to be joined by an upper wedge opening 153.1 and a lower wedge opening 153.2 of the respective connection head 150 of Vertical diagonal 24.1, 24.1 inserted and, preferably, with the aid of a hammer, beaten ( Fig. 5 ).

The scaffold bars 28.1, 28.1 each have at their two ends to a known connection head 250. This is on the respective rod or scaffolding tube in festgeschweißt known manner. This connection head 250 also has an upper head part 256 and a lower head part 257, between which a slot 258 is provided, via which the respective connection head 250 onto one of the two perforated disks provided on the respective vertical support 30.1, 30.2 of the respective compensation frame 25.1, 25.1 45 is plugged. The connection of the girder bars 28.1, 28.1 with the two balancing frame 25.1, 25.1 again takes place in a conventional manner by means of a respective detachable wedge 65, which is used to connect the components to be connected by an upper wedge opening 253.1 and a lower part opening 253.2 of the respective connection head 250th the scaffold bars 28.1, 28.1 inserted and, preferably, with the aid of a hammer, beaten (see Fig. 5 ).

For the purpose of a diagonal bracing of the support frame 21.1 and the supporting tower constructed therefrom 22.1 in a horizontal plane, in the compensation height block 100.1 also another Gerustriegel in the form of a horizontal diagonal 23.1 is provided, between two of the lower opposing perforated discs 45 of the two Compensation frame 25.1, 25.1 is attached by means of connecting heads 250. Except for the length of the horizontal diagonal 23.1 is the same design as the scaffold bars 28.1.

How out Fig. 1 can be seen, in the lower ends 34.1, 34.2 of the four vertical supports 30.1, 30.2 of the two balancing frame 25.1, 25.1 respectively inserted into a known foot spindle 29, by means of which a fine-height adjustment and thus an alignment of the Supporting frame 21.1 or said first lower height block 100.1 can be achieved.

Above the first height block 100.1 formed with the two compensating frames 25.1, 25.1, three further height blocks 100.2 to 100.4 are constructed here, wherein the height block 100.4 provided in the region of the upper end of the supporting framework 21.1 or of the supporting structure tower 22.1 is again designed as a compensation height block 100.4 is designed. This upper compensation height block 100.4 is constructed with essentially the same components as the lower compensation height block 100.1, so that reference can be made to the above explanations in this respect. In contrast to this, in the case of the upper compensation height block 100.4, the horizontal diagonal 23.1 provided for horizontal stiffening is fixed on two of the diagonally opposite upper perforated disks 45 via its connection heads 250. In addition, in this upper height block 100.4, the two compensating frames 25.1, 25.1 are coupled via the perforated disks 45 provided at their respective upper ends via two of the scaffolding bars 28.1.

It will be appreciated that such a shoring tower or tower, which is constructed with a square plan 98, may also be constructed with only one level compensating height block, preferably a lower level compensating height block 100.1 or omitting any leveling blocks can.

In the Fig. 1 Between the two compensation height blocks 100.1 and 100.4 provided two further height blocks 100.2 and 100.3 are respectively with the first standard frame 25.2, 25.2 designated vertical frame according to the invention 25.2, 25.2 built. These vertical frames 25.2 differ from the compensating frames 25.1 essentially in that they have only one perforated disc 45 in the area of the respective upper ends 33.1, 33.2 of their vertical supports 30.3, 30.4 and furthermore in that these vertical frames 25.2, 25.2 have a greater height 92.3 (please refer Fig. 7 ) exhibit. With regard to the structural details of the compensation frame 25.1 on the one hand and the first standard frame 25.2 on the other hand can be further explanations to the Fig. 6 and 7 to get expelled.

The structure of the second height block 100.2 with the two first standard frame 25.2, 25.2 is here to increase the overall stability such that the two standard frame 25.2, 25.2 of the second height block 100.2 relative to the two balancing frame 25.1, 25.2 of the first height block 100.1 each about a vertical central axis offset by 90 degrees to each other. In a similar manner as in the case of the compensation frames 25.1, 25.1, the two standard frames 25.2, 25.2 are interconnected with two vertical diagonals 24.2, 24.2, wherein these vertical diagonals 24.2, 24.2 have a greater length compared to the vertical diagonals 24.1, 24.1 of the compensation frames 25.1, 25.1 , but the rest are the same as the vertical diagonal 24.1.

The connection of the two standard frames 25.2, 25.2 of the second height block 100.2 by means of the two vertical diagonals 24.2, 24.2 is such that each of the vertical diagonal 24.1 with a first connection head 150 at the respective, in the region of the upper end 33.1, 33.2 of the vertical supports 30.3, 30.4 of the respective standard frame 25.2, 25.2 is set, while the respective other Connection head 150 of the vertical diagonal 24.2, 24.2 at one in the region of the upper end 33.1, 33.2 of a vertical support 30.1, 30.2 one of the compensation frame 25.1, 25.1 is fixed. The distance of the perforated disks 45 fastened to the vertical supports 30.3, 30.4 of the first standard frame 25.2, 25.2 from the vertical support of the respective balancing frame 25.1, which is assembled in the region of the upper end of the vertical support of the first standard frame 25.2, is 150 cm. In other words, the two perforated disks 45, 45 have a vertical distance 97 of 1.5 m over the frame impact. An advantage of this grid dimension of 1.5 m is that so-called serial diagonals of a modular scaffold system, here the Layher Allround scaffolding system, can be used in a cost effective manner.

How out FIG. 1 it can be seen, there is between the two vertical frame or standard frame 25.2, 25.2 of the height block 100.2, between the horizontally spaced perforated discs 45 which are located in a horizontal distance vertical frame 25.2, 25.2, each set a further horizontal scaffold bar 28.1. The provision of one or two such girder bars 28 is optional. As a result of the installation of these or such further horizontal girder bars 28.1, the supporting framework 21.1 or the supporting framework tower 22.1 can advantageously be further stiffened. Furthermore, such further scaffold bars 28.1, 28.1 can be used to support or support scaffolding floors 43. Two such scaffolding floors are exemplary in Fig. 1 located. These are placed here with cross-sectionally U-shaped hooks 44 on the here designed as round tubes crossbar or scaffolding bars 28.1, 28.1. In this or similar way, a Supporting framework 21 according to the invention or a supporting framework tower 22 according to the invention can additionally also be used as a scaffolding or the like.

On the second height block 100.2 is, as also out Fig. 1 can be seen, another height block 100.3 constructed, which in turn includes two horizontally spaced vertical frame 25, here in the form of first standard frame 25.2, 25.2. These two vertical frames 25.2, 25.2 are in turn, offset by 90 degrees about the central longitudinal axis or elevation axis of the supporting framework 21.1 or of the supporting framework tower 22.1, relative to the two vertical frames 25.2, 25.2 disposed in the height block 100.2 located below. Incidentally, the structure of the height block 100.3 corresponds to the height block 100.2.

In order to support the loads to be taken up by the vertical frame 25 according to the invention or the frame support 20 according to the invention or the support frame tower 22 according to the invention, at the respective upper end of the vertical supports 30 the compensating frame 25.1, 25.2 arranged with the uppermost height block 100.4 can be respectively a known per se head spindle 38 may be provided, which in turn may be inserted here in the form of round tubes made of steel scaffold tubes of the vertical supports 30 of the balance frame 25.1, 25.1. These head spindles 38 can again be provided in a manner known per se with cross-sectionally U-shaped supports 38.1 for supporting or receiving load carriers or shuttering carriers, here in the form of I-beams 26. It is understood that the head spindles can also be designed adapted for supporting and / or receiving other support bodies, for example in the form of crosshead spindles, in which in the region of the upper ends of a support plate and a plurality of horizontally spaced, can be provided starting from this upwardly extending support profiles.

The Fig. 2 shows a second embodiment of a support frame according to the invention 21.2. This is constructed as an inventive support tower 22.2 according to a second embodiment and this or have a rectangular plan 99 ( Fig. 4 ). The shoring tower 22.2 is constructed from frame supports 20.2 according to the invention in accordance with a second exemplary embodiment. These constructions are based on the use of several inventive, here in each case the same or identical vertical frame 25.2, 25.2. Consequently, in the in FIG. 2 shown embodiment only vertical frame 25.2 used, which are also referred to as the first standard frame 25.2 and their detailed design in connection with Fig. 7 is explained in more detail.

Also at the in Fig. 2 shown embodiment per height block 100.5, 100.6 two vertical frame according to the invention 25.2, 25.2 are provided. These are each arranged in pairs at a horizontal distance from each other, which is determined here by the length of a provided with known connection heads 250 of a modular scaffold system, here the Layher Allround scaffold system, horizontal longitudinal bar or scaffold bar 28.2. The length of the scaffold bars 28.2 is greater than the distance 31 of the longitudinal axes 32.2, 32.2 of the two vertical supports 30.3, 30.4 of the vertical frame 25.2 (see. Fig. 7 ). The longitudinal bars or scaffold bars 28.2 are parallel to each other and each perpendicular to the spanned by the respective two vertical frame 25.2, 25.2 Vertical planes arranged. In this construction, therefore, results in a rectangular plan 99, as shown Fig. 4 seen.

With two of the paired, identical or identical vertical frame 25.2, 25.2, the height blocks 100.5, 100.6 are formed. The first height block 100.5 assigned to the floor, or the vertical supports 30.3, 30.4, of the vertical frame 25.2, 25.2, supports or is supported by so-called initial pieces 39, whose vertical tubes are connected to the known perforated discs of a modular scaffold system, here the Layher Allround scaffolding system, are equipped, again via foot spindles 29, on the ground.

To build the Fig. 2 The resulting support frame 21.2 or the resulting support frame tower 22.2 is initially known in itself for the construction of modular frameworks a closed horizontal base frame consisting of five scaffolding components, namely two parallel longitudinal bars 28.2, 28.2, two parallel and each perpendicularly arranged cross bars 28.1 , 28.1 and a horizontal diagonal 23.2. These scaffold bars or struts have in turn known per se at their respective two ends connecting heads 150 (vertical diagonal 23.2) and connecting heads 250 (scaffold bars 28.1, 28.2), by means of which and the known through wedges these scaffolding components on four perforated discs 45 of four start pieces 39 are fixed, each supported by a foot spindle 29 on the ground. The girder bars 28.1 and 28.2 span a horizontal plane in which the horizontal diagonal 23.2 extends.

For this purpose, therefore, the free ends of the vertical supports 30.3, 30.4 of the two vertical frame 25.2, 25.2 attached to or in the tubes of the starting pieces 39. Subsequently, the two vertical frame 25.2, 25.2 vertically supported by means of two horizontally spaced vertical diagonal 39. For this purpose, these vertical diagonals 24.3 are fixed with one of their connection heads 150 on one of the perforated disks 45 of the vertical frame 25.2, while they are fixed with their other connection head to a respective perforated disk 45 of an initial piece 39. For the purpose of further stiffening, the two vertical frames 25.2, 25.2 of the first height block 100.5 can and are connected to each other with two longitudinal bars 28.2. These two longitudinal bars 28.2 are fixed with their respective connection heads 250 to a respective perforated disc 45 of the two opposite vertical frame 25.2, 25.2.

In the in Fig. 2 shown second embodiment, a second, substantially identical or the same, height block 100.6 is arranged above the first height block 100.5, which is thus again constructed of two identical or identical vertical frame 25.2. In this height block 100.6 attached to the lower ends of the two vertical diagonal 24.3 connecting heads 150 are each fixed to a perforated disc 45 one of the underlying height block 100.5 associated vertical frame 25.2, 25.2.

The connection heads 45 are each welded to one of the vertical supports 30 of the vertical frame 25 in such a way that the horizontal plane 71 intersecting the slot 58 at the level of half of the slot width lies approximately in the middle plane 72 intersecting the perforated disk 45 at the level of its center.

Each connection head 50 is designed symmetrically to the horizontal plane 71 and also symmetrically to a vertical plane 82 arranged perpendicular thereto and also the longitudinal axis 37 of the horizontal arm 35 and the horizontal strut 47 thereof.

The upper head part 56 has upper vertical contact surfaces 80.1.1, 80.1.2 and the lower head part 57 has lower vertical contact surfaces 80.2.1, 80.2.2, with which the connection head 50 bears against the outer surface of the vertical support 30.

Die Länge 92.1 ist kleiner als der Horizontalabstand 31 zwischen den beiden Vertikalstützen 30.1, 30.2 bzw. zwischen den Längsachsen 32.1, 32.1 dieser beiden Vertikalstützen 30.1 und 30.2. Die Länge 92.1 jeder dieser Vertikalstützen 30.1, 30.2 beträgt im gezeigten Ausführungsbeispiel genau 70,9 cm.

Alternative perforated disk designs go for example from the DE 39 09 809 A1 or the parallel EP 0 389 933 B1 and the DE 200 12 589 U1 as well as the parallel WO 02/06610 A1 and the parallel EP 1 301 673 A1 the applicant. The in the Fig. 6 . 7 and 8th in an enlarged plan view illustrated embodiments of vertical frame 25 according to the invention; 25.1, 25.2; 25.3 differ in a number of features listed below:

• The in Fig. 6 shown and also referred to as a compensation frame 25.1 vertical frame 25.1 has two grade vertical supports 30.1 and 30.2, each with the same length 92.1. The length 92.1 is smaller than the horizontal distance 31 between the two vertical supports 30.1, 30.2 or between the longitudinal axes 32.1, 32.1 of these two vertical supports 30.1 and 30.2. The length 92.1 of each of these vertical supports 30.1, 30.2 is exactly 70.9 cm in the embodiment shown.

The horizontal distance 31 is, by the way, according to the other two vertical frame 25.2 Fig. 7 and 25.3 according to Fig. 8 , each exactly 1,088 mm, which corresponds to a system width of a suitable modular scaffolding system, here the Layher Allround scaffolding system.

The vertical supports 30.1 and 30.2 of the vertical frame 25.1, also referred to as a compensation frame, each have exactly two perforated disks 45.1 and 45.3 or 45.2 and 45.4. These four perforated discs 45.1 to 45.4 are in this embodiment in each case at equal intervals 93.1, 93.2 from here in each case 100 mm, from the ends 33.1, 33.2; 34.1, 34.2 of the vertical supports 30.1, 30.2 spaced, here by welding, set.

Due to the upper and lower distances 93.1 and 93.2, which are the same here, they are also used as balancing frames 2 and centrally extending, horizontal plane of symmetry, which is arranged perpendicular to the longitudinal axes 32.1, 32.2 of the vertical supports 30.1 and 30.2, formed "symmetrical" with respect to a parallel to the longitudinal axes 37.1, 37.2 of your horizontal arms 35.1, 35.2. In this way, it does not matter in the assembly of this vertical frame 25.1 on a laterally correct mounting or on a correct side plugging.

The distance 41 of the respective two perforated disks 45 per vertical support 30 corresponds to the vertical distance 36.1 of the horizontal arms 35.1 and 35.2 or their longitudinal axes 37.1, 37.2, which is exactly 500 mm in this case.

The distance 41 between the respective two perforated disks 45.1 and 45.3 of the first vertical support 30.1 and between the two perforated disks 45.2 and 45.4 of the second vertical support 32.1 is in each case the same size and is here 500 mm.

The diagonal strut 40.1, which is welded between the two vertical supports 30.1 and 30.2 of the vertical frame 25.1, has a length 84.1 which is 1.110.5 mm here. The longitudinal axis 73.1 of the straight diagonal bar 40.1 intersects the longitudinal axis 32.1 of FIG FIG. 6 Left vertical support 30.1 shown at a distance 85.1 from the attached to this vertical support 30.1 lower perforated disc 45.3, or from the longitudinal axis 37.2 of the horizontal arm 35.2. This distance 85.1 is here 78.5 mm. At the other end, the longitudinal axis 73.1 of the diagonal strut 40.1 intersects the longitudinal axis 32.1 of the second vertical support 30.2, which in FIG Fig. 6 is shown on the right, at a distance 84.1 from the upper perforated disc 85.2 and from the longitudinal axis 37.1 of the horizontal arm 35.1. This distance 84.1 is also exactly 78.5 mm in the exemplary embodiment. The diagonal strut 40.1, respectively their longitudinal axis 73.1 includes with the respective horizontal strut 47.1 of the horizontal arms 35.1, 35.2 in each case an angle 74.1, which is 17.5 degrees here.

The vertical supports 30.1 and 30.2 have both at their upper ends 33.1, 33.2 and at their lower ends 34.1, 34.2 each have a parallel to the longitudinal axes 37.1, 37.2 of the horizontal arms 35.1, 35.2 extending double hole 91. Each double hole 91 has from the respective free end of the respective vertical support 30.1, 30.2 at a distance which is about 35 mm here. Each double hole 91 has an inner diameter, which is about 13 mm here.

According to a further preferred embodiment of a vertical frame according to the invention, which is not shown in the figures and which is preferably used as a compensation frame, this can according to the in Fig. 7 shown vertical frame 25.2 be designed, however, in contrast, only has a height of 50 cm. In other words, the vertical supports in this further embodiment of a vertical frame each have a length of only 50 cm. In this way, a further inventive vertical frame can be made available, which is preferably, however, usable as a compensation frame. The height or length of its vertical supports preferably corresponds to the usual pitch of a modular framework, in particular the Layher Allround scaffolding system.

In contrast, the in Fig. 7 shown, also referred to as a standard frame vertical frame 25.2 a height, respectively length 92.2 whose vertical supports 30.3, 30.4, which corresponds to 1,500 mm three times the pitch of the Layher Allround scaffolding system.

According to the above-mentioned further embodiment of an inventive, preferably used as a compensation frame and not shown in the figures further vertical frame, this then has, however, in contrast to the in Fig. 6 shown balancing frame 25.1, only one perforated disc per vertical support, so similar to the in Fig. 7 shown vertical frame 25.2.

In Fig. 8 a further embodiment of a vertical frame 25.3 according to the invention is shown. In this embodiment, it is again a "symmetrical" vertical frame 25.3. This one is similar to the one in Fig. 6 shown vertical frame 25.1, each with exactly two perforated discs 45.1, 45.3; 45.2, 45.4 per vertical support 30.5, 30.6 equipped. In contrast to this vertical frame 25.1, the vertical supports 30.5 and 30.6 of the vertical frame 25.3 have a height or a length 92.3, which is here 1,759 mm. According to the said "symmetry", each of the four perforated disks 45.1, 45.2, 45.3 45.4 of the associated end 33.1, 34.1; 33.2, 34.2 of the associated vertical support 30.5, 30.6 a distance 93.3, 93.4, which is the same size, however, in contrast to the in Fig. 6 shown vertical frame 25.1 is now larger and here is 125 mm.

Further, the distance is 36.3 of the two, each set on one of the vertical supports 30.5, 30.6 perforated discs 45.1, 45.3; 45.2, 45.4 or the distance 36.3 between the longitudinal axis 37.5 of the upper horizontal arm 35.5 or its horizontal strut 47.3 and the longitudinal axis 37.6 of the lower horizontal arm 35.6 or its horizontal strut 47.3, here 1,500 mm.

The diagonal brace 40.3 of the vertical frame 35.3 has a length of 48.3, which is 1.735.4 mm here. This diagonal brace 40.3 is welded between the two vertical supports 30.5 and 30.6. The diagonal brace 40.3 or its longitudinal axis 73.3 includes with each of the horizontal arms 35.5, 35.6 and their longitudinal axes 37.5, 37.6 an angle 74.3, which is 52.2 degrees here.

The vertical supports 30.5 and 30.6 have in the region of their free ends 33.1, 34.1; 33.2, 34.2 each have a double hole 91. However, its respective longitudinal axis is different from that in FIG Fig. 6 shown frame 25.1 now perpendicular to the plane defined by the longitudinal axes 37.5, 37.6 of the horizontal arms 35.5, 35.6 and the longitudinal axes 32.3 of the vertical supports 30.5 and 30.6 vertical plane. These double holes 91 each have an inner diameter, which is 13 mm here. These double holes 91 point from the respective free end 33.1, 34.1; 33.2, 34.1 of the respective vertical support 30.5, 30.6 a distance, which is here 35 mm.

By choosing the distance 36.3 from here 1,500 mm between the two perforated discs 45.1, 45.3; 45.2, 45.4 of the respective vertical strut 30.5, 30.6 in conjunction with the distances of the respective perforated disc 45.1, 45.2, 45.3, 45.4 from the respective free ends 33.1, 34.1; 33.2, 34.2, ie the here equally large distances 93.3 and 93.4, which are here 125 mm, a vertical frame 25.3, also referred to as a second standard frame, is achieved which, when used, allows a combination with standardized vertical diagonals which are suitable for a quadruple grid dimension of 2 m Height at a modular scaffolding, especially in the Layher Allround scaffolding system, are available. This allows further cost advantages in combination with these vertical frame reach 25.3.

To construct inventive frame supports 20 or support frames 21 according to the invention or support tower towers 22 according to the invention, at least two of the vertical frames 25 according to the invention are arranged one above the other and against each other against displacement. It offers a mutual fixing by plugging. For this purpose, it may be advantageous to provide in each case a pipe connector as a connecting means, as he, for example, in Fig. 14 is shown.

Such a pipe connector 105 is expediently inserted into the respective lower ends of the vertical supports of the vertical frame 25.2 or 25.3, also referred to as the standard frame, and is fastened there with the aid of screws, in particular hexagonal screws 101, if appropriate with suitable lock nuts. For this purpose, the pipe connectors 105 have an outer diameter 106 which is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the vertical supports 30. The outer diameter 106 of the pipe connector 105 is here 38 mm. The pipe connector 105 has a wall thickness 107, which is 3.6 mm here. The length 108 of the pipe connector is 260 mm here.

The pipe connector 105 has a fastening insertion end 114, with which the pipe connector 105 is inserted into one of the vertical supports 30. Thus inserted, the pipe connector 105 can be plugged by means of screws 101 through which at a distance 120 from here 20 mm from the mounting shank 140 provided double hole 112 having a diameter 113 from here 13 mm, as well as through a provided in the region of the ends of the associated vertical support 30 double hole 91st

At its other end, ie at the insertion end 115, the tube connector 105 has a chamfer 116, which preferably has a width 121 of 5 mm here. This chamfer 116 facilitates insertion into vertical supports 30 of other vertical frames 25. In the middle between its ends, and accordingly at a distance 117 from here 130 mm, the tube connector 105 has both a first double hole 109 and a second double hole 110. The longitudinal axes of these two double holes 109 and 110 are viewed relative to a plane perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the pipe connector 105 horizontal plane, arranged at an angle of 90 degrees to each other. These double holes 109 and 110 have an inner diameter 113, which is 13 mm here. The provision of such a cross-four-hole consisting of two intersecting at an angle of 90 degrees double holes 109 and 110 allows both an assembly of vertical frame 25 according to the invention in successive height blocks offset by 90 degrees to one another and an assembly of two inventive vertical frame 25 one above the other, ie with each aligned, spanned by these vertical frame 25 vertical planes. For this purpose, depending on the mounting situation, a screw 101 is inserted either through the one double hole 109 or through the other double hole 110 and a double hole 91 of the vertical frame 95 to be connected thereto, and secured, preferably with a lock nut.

It is understood that the invention is not limited to the embodiments shown in the figures with regard to the vertical frame 25 according to the invention shown in the figures and with regard to the frame supports, support frames and / or shoring towers that can be built therefrom, but also in the context of the inventive idea also arbitrarily different may be formed, dimensioned and / or designed.
