Description

- 1 - POI 6265 PC

Modular flood protection device

The invention relates to a modular flood protection device with, if necessary, erectable attachment columns and with fixable on two adjacent attachment columns wall elements, wherein the mounting pillars are anchored to column foundations.

From DE 102 40 779 Al is a mobile

Flood protection device known in which, if necessary, two or three europallets supporting each other connected to each other and covered with a waterproof film. By a suitable arrangement of each adjacent Euro pallets relative to each other can be built in this way with simple means a nearly arbitrarily long and up to about two meters high mobile flood wall, which usually receives sufficient mechanical stability by the composite effect.

From practice are different modular

Flood protection devices are known in which rod-shaped or bar-shaped wall elements are arranged and fixed between adjacent attachment columns. These flood barrier devices, also referred to as dam beam systems, require reliable anchoring of the individual spaced mounting pillars in the ground, which is why a strip foundation or individual pile foundations are usually permanently arranged in the ground along the intended course of the flood protection device to be erected if necessary - 2 - POI 6265 PC

and anchored. If necessary, the individual fastening columns can then be quickly mounted on the respectively assigned foundation. The establishment of a composed of many dam beam elements flood control device, however, is time consuming and labor intensive. The need for short-term required construction of such flood protection devices is prone to error due to the required storage and transport logistics and can lead to delays or improper execution in the construction.

From DE 10 2005 025 314 Al, for example, a mobile flood protection device is known, in which fastening columns are also anchored to pillar foundations, if required, but between two adjacent fastening pillars each large-area wall elements are arranged and fixed watertight. The individual wall elements can be connected and secured with the respectively associated fastening columns and the adjacent wall elements by means of suitable fastening and connecting elements, so that a composite effect detectable across a plurality of fastening columns is produced.

For all the aforementioned mobile

Flood control devices, the individual elements of the flood protection device such as the europallets or the mounting columns and wall elements, which in turn are stored on dedicated pallets or in containers, usually at centrally located storage stocks - 3 - POI 6265 PC

kept and transported only when needed to the place of use. The necessary containers or warehouses must be built or rented. If necessary, a rapid provision of the required for the establishment of the modular flood protection device items at the site is required, which means a significant cost of logistics and consideration of the time required for this purpose. The provision of the individual parts can be made difficult by the fact that the course of the modular

Flood protection device through an inaccessible or difficult to reach area leads and transport vehicles can not get directly to the place of use. The control of the required individual parts at the place of use and the overall overview of the professional and proper sequence of the assembly are usually very complex and often associated with risks and sources of error.

There are also known from practice modular flood protection devices in which individual elements of the modular flood protection device are retractable in the ground and are removed only when needed and built into a modular flood protection device. Such retractable in the ground modular flood protection devices are by design very complex and costly and require along the course of the need to build if necessary flood protection device sufficient space to be completely sunk in the ground and stored there. - 4 - POI 6265 PC

Object of the present invention is therefore to provide a modular flood protection device of the type mentioned in such a way that, if necessary, a modular retaining wall can be quickly and reliably established without an excessive transport and logistics costs incurred.

This object is achieved in that the column foundations are arranged on a stationary stowage wall and at least one compartment is arranged next to or in the stowage wall, which is suitable for storage of the mounting columns and the wall elements. A stationary retaining wall, which extends over the entire required height if necessary, is in many cases associated with an inappropriate intervention in the landscape and is rejected by the population for optical reasons rightly. In contrast, a stationary stowage wall, which extends only to a height of about 80 cm or 1 m and is thus comparable to a railing or a balustrade, a significantly minor intervention in the landscape and in most cases acceptable. This is all the more so if, for example, to secure traffic routes or dams a railing of comparable height is basically required.

In which the column foundations are arranged on the stationary stowage wall, a modular stowage wall can be erected on this stationary stowage wall with an often insufficient height if necessary, which is only on the stationary flood during the upcoming flood - 5 - POI 6265 PC

Stowage wall remains and can then be dismantled again.

The items required for the modular stowage wall, such as the fastening columns and the wall elements which can be fixed therebetween, can advantageously be stored and stored in the compartment arranged on or in the stationary stowage wall. If necessary, the fastening columns and the wall elements need not be transported from a distant warehouse. The items can be removed without time loss and without the laborious control of the required number and distribution of items on site, taken from the arranged on or in the stationary stowage compartment and used to establish the modular stowage wall on the stationary stowage wall.

According to an advantageous embodiment of the inventive concept it is provided that the compartment for storage of the mounting columns and the wall elements from a flood-facing side is accessible. Depending on the spatial conditions, the compartment may be on a flood-facing or facing away from the stationary

Stowage be arranged. An arrangement of the compartment, or optionally several compartments on the side facing away from the flood, makes it possible to remove and mount the modular stowage wall from the compartments even when the flood is already rising, which is already present at the stationary stowage wall. - 6 - POI 6265 PC

It is preferably provided that a removal opening of a compartment arranged in the stationary stowage wall is arranged substantially flush with the surface to an outer surface of the stationary stowage wall. The compartment can be covered with a suitable cover and closed, the cover can have a visually appealing and functionally appropriate design. In the tray all items can be stored and kept in stock for the need for the construction of the modular stowage wall on the stationary stowage wall are required.

In order to increase the mechanical stability of the modular stowage wall to be erected, if necessary, it is provided that the stationary stowage wall has stationary wall fastening elements spaced apart from one another. The stationary wall fasteners may, for example, be crenellated raised portions of the stationary stowage wall extending to the maximum height of the modular stowage wall to be erected only when needed.

The number and spacing of adjacent wall fasteners may be dictated by the wind or water forces commonly encountered or expected, with dynamic loads and possibly exceptional events such as static loading and flooding flotsam, as well as static loading can be considered. - 7 - POI 6265 PC

It is preferably provided that the stationary wall fastening elements have a compartment for receiving fastening columns. While individual wall elements should be expediently too large to be accommodated in the compartment of a wall mounted as narrow as possible for optical reasons Wandbefestigungselements, both mounting columns and other accessories and small parts can be regularly stored and stocked in such a compartment. Such a compartment is closable with a door or a cover to prevent unauthorized removal or contamination of the objects arranged therein.

In this compartment in a stationary wall fastening element and those items can be stored, which are required for the construction of the first portion or the first two sections of the adjoining the stationary wall fastener modular stowage wall. Thus, for example, two mounting columns including for anchoring the

Mounting columns on the column foundations necessary fasteners are stored in such a compartment. If the assembly of the modular stowage wall is to be started, the attachment columns could be removed from this compartment and anchored, in order subsequently to be able to remove the required wall elements from the first compartment, which is arranged in the stationary stowage wall, and fix it to the already anchored attachment columns. The mounting column located in this compartment can then already be used for the subsequent section of the modular retaining wall. - 8 - POI 6265 PC

In a particularly advantageous manner, it is provided that the compartments or dividable compartment sections arranged between two adjacent wall fastening elements have an interior volume which is suitable for receiving a sufficient number of wall elements in order to erect a modular stowage wall between the two adjacent wall fastening elements. In this way it can be ensured that all necessary for the establishment of a modular stowage wall between two adjacent wall fasteners items and in particular the often a considerable weight having fastening columns and wall elements in the corresponding portion of the stationary stowage wall can be kept in stock. It is not necessary to transport individual fastening columns or wall elements over greater distances or, for example, over a wall fastening element, which simplifies the logistics and the rapid erection of the modular retaining wall.

For this purpose, it is further provided that in the interior of the subjects, or the subject sections in addition a sufficient number of mounting columns and accessories for attaching, sealing and securing the wall elements can be stored. The accessories are expediently largely preassembled, so that the modular stowage wall can be removed in a few steps and within the shortest possible time in the form of individual parts of the respective compartments or compartment sections and erected on the stationary stowage wall. - 9 - POI 6265 PC

The amount of work and time required to construct the modular stowage wall can be significantly reduced by having the wall elements each have a width of more than two meters, preferably more than three meters and a height of more than forty centimeters, preferably more than fifty centimeters. Such wall panels, as are known for example from DE 10 2005 025 314 Al, allow already with two or three stacked wall elements a Stauwanderhöhung by one meter or more, which should already be sufficient in many cases. Of course, already known ridge beam systems or other known from practice systems can be accommodated in the subjects, provided that the dimensions of the respective items and the sizes allow such accommodation and storage.

By using only two or three stacked wall elements, a sufficient and reliable sealing of the modular stowage wall is facilitated. By a suitable arrangement and determination of the superimposed wall elements also a subsequent increase, or increase the modular stowage wall can be made possible, this should be required by a corresponding increase in the flood. Large-area wall elements can be used in particular for a correspondingly functional or decorative design to cover the subjects and replace a separate cover. A visually appealing design of the wall elements is also in the built modular dam wall during the flood of advantage. If arched wall elements are used - 10 - POI 6265 PC

and used to cover the compartments, the wall elements may at least partially protrude beyond the discharge opening in the bulging areas.

According to an advantageous embodiment of the inventive concept it is provided that the removal opening of the compartment with a wall element largely covered, or can be closed. A separate flap or cover of the removal opening of the compartment is then not required. In the interior of the compartment, for example, a mounting column and other accessories can be arranged and secured against unauthorized access or removal by means of a wall element largely closing the removal opening.

The wall element covering the removal opening can be fixed and secured, for example, by pivotable or removable holding devices or locking strips extending laterally and along an upper edge of the compartment or wall element.

In addition, it can be provided that each compartment has an anti-theft device for indicating an unauthorized removal of the wall elements or mounting columns arranged therein. The

Anti-theft device may, for example, in the event of a decrease in a locking bar or wall element trigger an alarm or activate a visual display. An alarm signal can be sent to a monitoring center, for example at the local

Fire department or police are transmitted. To hinder or prevent theft, the covers - 11 - POI 6265 PC

the individual subjects or the locking strips for the subjects covering wall elements, for example, with anti-theft screws or correspondingly appropriate security devices set or hedged.

In the area of the pillar foundations, support elements and anchoring elements arranged partially or completely in the interior of the compartments may be provided. The support and anchoring elements can serve to absorb and remove the mechanical stresses occurring during high water, which are transmitted via the mounting pillars and the pillar foundations in the stationary bulkhead. At these support and anchoring elements, which are preferably designed as a T-carrier can

Attachment elements and support devices for receiving the mounting pillars, the wall elements and other accessories attached.

According to an advantageous embodiment of

According to the invention it is provided that in the interior of the at least one compartment, or the compartment sections fastening plates are anchored for attachment of support devices on or in the stationary stowage wall. The mounting plates are at the rear wall of the compartment spaced from each other and aligned substantially flush with the rear wall and have a sufficient width in the longitudinal direction in order to later align and fix the fasteners in the compartments, so that between two fasteners each

Wall elements can be added and stored. A subsequent alignment of the fasteners - 12 - POI 6265 PC

facilitates the production of the stationary stowage wall and the fasteners arranged therein, since the required for the reception and storage of the wall elements precise arrangement and vertical orientation of the fasteners can be subsequently measured and specified for each fastener.

In order to increase the mechanical load capacity of the modular stowage wall and, where appropriate, to enable an subsequently required increase in the modular stowage wall, provision is made for the attachment columns to have formations for fixing a support stirrup at an end facing the column foundations. A support bracket, which extends from an abutment in the bottom region of the stationary stowage wall into an upper region of the associated fastening column and additionally supports the fastening column, can then be fixed, if necessary, in the area of the associated column foundation.

Figure 10 is a partially sectioned side view of the stationary stowage wall with a arranged on the stationary stowage mounting column and with a mounting column additionally supporting the support bracket.

The stationary stowage wall 1 shown schematically in FIGS. 1 to 3 has a parapet height of about one meter over large areas. In the stationary stowage wall 1 compartments 2 are arranged along its course, which are provided and suitable for receiving and supporting wall elements 3 and mounting columns 4, which are required for the construction of a modular stowage wall 5 on the stationary stowage wall 1. In this case, those wall elements 3 and fastening columns 4 can be stored and stored in stock in each compartment 2, which are required for the establishment of a substantially the same length having portion of the modular stowage wall 5. The transporting and distributing or assigning of individual parts of the modular stowage wall 5 over long distances is therefore not necessary, so that the modular stowage wall 5 can be erected within the shortest possible time and with minimal personnel expenditure.

The stationary stowage wall 1 has stationary wall fastening elements 6 at a distance from each other. The stationary wall fastening elements 6 may be, for example, masonry or concrete crenellated sections of the stationary retaining wall 1, which extend up to the height of the modular retaining wall 5 to be paid only if necessary or beyond. The stationary wall fastening elements 6 are expediently as possible - 15 - POI 6265 PC

stable and mechanically resilient designed to give the built therebetween modular stowage wall 5 an additional strength.

The individual wall elements 3 can be fixed, for example, with suitable clamping levers 7 on the associated fastening columns 4. Laterally adjacent and stacked wall elements 3 can be additionally connected to each other by Sicherungsjoche 8, so that a composite effect is brought about, which can also affect on adjacent mounting pillars 4 away.

In the stationary wall mounting elements 6 further compartments 9 may be arranged, which are provided and suitable for receiving, for example, fastening columns 4 or accessories. The compartments 9 are suitably closed with a hinged door 10 or removable cover plate, so that the contents of these compartments 9 is secured against unauthorized access.

The height and the width of the compartments 2 are adapted in an advantageous manner to the dimensions of the largest wall element 3, which is provided for the construction of the modular stowage wall 5. It has been shown that the individual

Wall elements expediently have a width of 2 m, 3 m or more than 3 m and a height of 40 cm or more, in particular a height of for example 45 cm or 55 cm. The distance of the stationary wall fastening elements 6 to one another may be, for example, 20 m, but also more than 50 m or more than 100 m. Conveniently, the distance of adjacent stationary - 16 - POI 6265 PC

Wall attachment elements 6 are specified so that on the one hand sufficient attachment and securing the interposed modular stowage wall 5 is achieved and at the same time sufficient time can be planned and provided in case of need, with a team of assembly workers successively the individual parts of the modular stowage wall 5 the associated subjects 2 and to construct the modular stowage wall 5 between the two associated stationary wall fastening elements 6.

FIGS. 4, 5, 6 and 7 schematically show two different embodiments of a stationary stowage wall 1 with a compartment 2 arranged therein and wall elements 3 arranged in the compartment 2, as well as fastening columns 4 and further accessories. The stationary stowage wall 1 has a substantially C-shaped and the arranged in the stationary stowage wall 1 compartment 2 surrounding profile. On an upper side 11 of the stationary stowage wall 1, column foundations 12 are inserted at a distance from one another into the stationary stowage wall 1. The pillar foundations 12 have fixed thereto and accessible from above threaded sleeves 13. On each pillar foundation 12, an associated mounting column 4 can be arranged and fastened by means of suitable fastening screws 14, which are screwed into the threaded sleeves 13. The pillar foundations 12 may have anchoring elements 15 extending far into surrounding areas of the stationary bulkhead 1.

In the figures 4 and 5, an embodiment of the stationary stowage wall 1 is shown with a tray 2, whose - 17 - POI 6265 PC

Interior space 16 for receiving two curved, nested wall elements 3 is provided and suitable. The wall element 3 arranged towards a removal opening 17 is supported on a bottom side 18 of the wall element 3 on a bottom 19 of the compartment 2 and locked on a top side 20 of the wall element 3 by means of a pivotable locking strip 21 in the compartment 2 ( FIG. 4). If the locking strip 21 is pivoted outwardly, the pivoted locking strip 21 releases the wall element 3, which can then be removed (FIG. 5).

FIG. 6 shows a variant embodiment of the stationary stowage wall 1 with a somewhat larger compartment 2, which is designed to accommodate three curved ones

Wall elements 3 is suitable. In addition, another locking and removal of the wall elements 3 is possible.

At the individual wall elements 3, the required sealing profiles 22 are already pre-assembled. In the interior 16 of the compartment 2 are still required for the modular stowage wall 5 mounting columns 4, clamping lever 7 and backup yokes 8 are arranged. In addition, the fastening screws 14 required for anchoring the fastening columns 4 to the column foundations 12 as well as other assembly accessories such as assembly tools, etc. be stored and stocked.

Between individual compartments 2, or compartment sections additionally pivotally mounted horizontal Arretierungsleisten 23 are arranged, with which the - 18 - POI 6265 PC

Wall elements 3 additionally set and can be secured against unauthorized access.

In the area of the pillar foundations 12, support elements and anchoring elements 24 arranged partially or completely in the interior of the compartments 2 can be provided and arranged, which can absorb and remove the mechanical loads occurring during floods, which are transferred via the attachment pillars 4 and the pillar foundations 12 into the stationary pillars Stow wall 1 are transmitted. At this support and anchoring elements 24, which are preferably designed as a T-carrier, not described in more detail fastening elements and supporting devices for receiving the mounting pillars 4, the wall elements 3 and the other accessories may be attached. A web projecting at right angles to a flange of a suitable T-beam can be arranged both in the direction of the removal opening 17 or in a direction opposite thereto. Between two adjacent support and anchoring elements 24, for example, plate-shaped connecting elements can be provided, which allow an additional stiffening or can serve as the rear closure of the compartments 2. Fasteners and support devices can also be either on webs or flanges of the T-beam or optionally provided

Connecting elements between adjacent T-beams are arranged and fixed. It can also be arranged additional webs or holding devices for fixing the fasteners and support devices to the T-beams, or to the support and Verankerungselernenten 24. - 19 - POI 6265 PC

In FIGS. 8 and 9, an embodiment of a separate fastening element 25 for receiving the wall elements 3 in a compartment 2 is shown by way of example. In the stationary stowage wall 1 is on a rear wall in the compartment 2 in the existing example of concrete

Structural body arranged a mounting plate 26 and anchored in the stationary stowage wall 1. The mounting plate 26 forms a weldable surface and allows subsequent alignment and fixing of a vertically arranged support plate 27. On the support plate 27, a support member 28 is fixed, or welded to a plurality of recesses 29 to the support plate 27. The distance and the orientation of adjacent support elements 28, or adjacent support plates 27, to which the support elements 28 are attached, is adapted to the dimensions of the wall elements 3 received between two adjacent support elements 28.

It is only necessary to provide the mounting plate 26 on site and to anchor in the stationary stowage wall 1 in a suitable manner. The support members 28 can be retrofitted and allow the inclusion and retention of all items that are required to build the modular stowage wall 5 on the stationary stowage wall 1. There must be no further fastening devices or dowels, etc. fixed to the stationary stowage wall 1 during the construction of the stationary stowage wall 1 or subsequently, or arranged.

Each support element 28 has on an underside an approximately tongue-shaped, laterally projecting support surface 30 for the wall elements 3. At a - 20 - POI 6265 PC

Top of the support member 28 are bolt-shaped receiving elements 31 are arranged. The wall elements 3 can be placed from above on the bolt-shaped receiving elements 31, or be suspended therefrom and be supported on the bottom of the support surface 30. Several curved wall elements 3 and in the illustrated

Embodiment three curved wall elements 3 can be seen from the opening of the tray 2 from one another stored in the tray 2 and each laterally between two adjacent support members 28 fixed thereto and locked.

At the back of the compartment 2 28 receiving devices 32 for receiving mounting pillars 4 and for receiving additional support devices are arranged on the support elements 28.

On the front side of the support elements 28, vertical closure strips 33 can be fixed in a form-fitting manner to the respective associated support element 28 between adjacent wall elements 3 arranged in the compartment 2. The closure strips 33 protrude laterally on both sides of the support element 28 slightly over an edge region of the wall elements 3 and prevent unauthorized removal of the secured by the closure strips 33 in the compartment wall elements 3. The closure strip 33 has for this purpose an upper Verklinkungselement 34 and a lower Verklinkungselement 35, with which the closure strip 33 can be positively fixed to the support member 28. - 21 - POI 6265 PC

In order to detect an unauthorized removal of wall elements 3 is provided that each closure strip 33 in the closed state, for example, a pressure switch 45 is actuated, the 33 generates a signal at a removal of the closure strip and can indicate in this way an unauthorized removal of wall elements 3. The pressure switch 45 is set up for switching through an alarm loop for externally arranged signaling systems and enables a reliable and cost-effective monitoring of the compartment 2 with the individual parts therein.

In Figure 10, a support bracket 36 is shown schematically, which can be attached in the middle if necessary to a formation 37 on the mounting column 4 by means of a bolt or the like. The formation 37 is arranged at the end of the mounting column 4, which faces the pillar foundation 12. The support bracket 36 has at a lower end to a support bracket 38 which bears against a lower edge 39 of the compartment 2. With an adjusting screw 40, the vertical orientation of the support bracket 36 to the

Orientation of the attached to the column foundation 12 mounting column 4 are adjusted so that a support surface 41 abuts an upper end 42 of the support bracket 36 to a support bracket 43 on the support pillar 4 and the mounting column 4 is additionally supported.

The support bracket 36 does not necessarily have to be provided during the construction of the modular stowage wall 5 and fastened. The support bracket 36 can be retrofitted if necessary, to an additional mechanical
