Definitions

  • the invention refers to improvements in gabions, a concept comprising all types of cages manufactured with grid meshes manufactured with welded rods, forming assemblies of any configuration and shape, which are filled with natural stones and any type of building rubble, either recovered stones, pieces of concrete, asphalt, plastics of any kind, wood and similar materials of any nature or colour.
  • Gabions Cages for stone known as gabions, have been used for more than a century in building containment walls, stabilising embankments, channelling water in rivers, building fences, separation walls and similar uses. Gabions are built with meshes formed by electro welded rods or rods welded with other techniques, forming grids, where the dimensions of the grid depend on the type of stones and/or rubble they contain.
  • the dimensions of the gabions and their weight implies that for distances more than approximately 150-200 m, the repercussion of the cost of transport, once the gabion is finished and filled with stones, may represent an important percentage in the pricing of its manufacturing and placement, therefore, it is important how the gabions are manufactured, manipulated and moved, so as to minimise the aforementioned manufacturing transport and placement costs.
  • Another type of gabion is that of USA patent no. 5.860.551 formed by six elements in the manner of assembled meshes, their handling is facilitated by the provision of a raising step, fixed to the bottom of the gabion frame to facilitate movement.
  • another of the aims of the invention is to focus on the aforementioned spatial stability, by the use of interior transversal meshes that join two or more lateral exterior meshes, so as to avoid them deforming or moving and thus modifying the initial shape, by regularly spreading the forces generated by the materials inside the gabion on the faces or short or long side meshes.
  • Another of the aims of the invention is to improve the stability of a collection of gabions located vertically, one on top of the other, by building in situ small posts inside the gabion, with their lower ends embedded in the foundations of a wall formed by placing one or more gabions on top of each other, which allows, when putting several gabions on top of each other vertically, to form a wall preserving verticality without wall stability problems caused by this superposition.
  • Another of the aims of the invention is the modification of the manner of building the base of the gabion, which optionally (according to its interior load, and its application) is built by the superimposing of two meshes joined together, by corresponding staples, thus avoiding sagging and/or deformation of the base when the interior weight of the filling material of the gabion surpasses certain limits.
  • Another of the aims of the invention is the flatness of the different gabion faces, which once assembled, thanks to joining of two or more adjacent meshes by means of rings, avoids the faces bulging, as a result of the bending of the vertical rods in their lower ends of the side meshes thanks to their "U” or “Z” shaped configuration to hold the side meshes to the base mesh, as happens in some types of gabions manufactured according to common systems on the market.
  • the joining of two or more meshes to form the gabion is achieved by using staples, that surround two or more rods of the confronted meshes to be joined, leaving, contrary to the current state of the art, a certain play between the perimeter of the gabion and these rods which enables, once the gabion has been filled and vibrated, that the different meshes that it is composed of on the outside, can move a certain distance with regard to their neighbours, so that they maintain their shape, instead of deforming, so that, by placing two or more gabions one on top of the other or side by side, they will maintain their original shape and there is no space or volume between them as a result of the inherent deformation caused by the weight of their load, which would cause unstable gabions when placed on top of each other, and when making a wall, could cause them not to support one on top of the other so they would not preserve their verticality, and could cause a gabion to fall to the ground with the resulting danger and damage.
  • the meshes used to make the different faces of the gabion are formed by metal rods or of any other resistant material, welded together, forming grids of dimensions that depend on the dimensions of the stones or any other type of material, in the gabion and of the resulting weight of the gabion.
  • the invention is characterised according to other purposes announced above, by reinforcing the stability of the gabion by joining the two short or long side meshes by means of internal grid meshes, that are joined to said short or long side meshes by means of staples, sharing the tension generated by the internal load of the gabion uniformly.
  • the distance between reinforcement meshes will be equal or different, as well as the dimensions and configuration of the grid of these meshes, and the diameter of the rods that the gabion is made of.
  • the invention is characterised by incorporating some resources into the gabion to facilitate placing two or more gabions on top of each other by providing small perpendicular posts at the settling base, comprising a rod or (bar grating) surrounded by a tubular element with concrete or similar material acting as a pillar, with its end embedded in the foundations.
  • the invention is characterised by improving the structural stiffness of the base mesh of the gabion by incorporating a superimposed second reinforcement mesh, with an equal or different grid, joined to this base mesh by staples, so that the two meshes form a reinforced mesh base.
  • metal wires, plastic, or fabric straps are used with loops on one end, while on the opposite ends they are joined to the said cable by means of terminals.
  • a gabion (10) is formed by the joining of long (16-17) and short side meshes (36-37) respectively, forming the larger and smaller base sides of the gabion respectively, joined to a base (13), formed by one or more meshes (15) overlapping the base mesh (13), all joined (13-15) by staples (18) see Figure 9 , forming a prism-shaped gabion (10), which may adopt (as can be seen in Figures 1 and 3 ,) a prism-shaped configuration, although other geometrical figures are possible, being closed (10) by a cover (14).
  • the long and (36-37) short side meshes (16-17), such as those that form part of the base (13), reinforced or not with a second reinforcement mesh (15) with the same or different size of grid (30), are built with horizontal and vertical rods (11-12) welded together forming grids (30) of (30) different sizes depending on type of material used for filling as well as of the type of force they exert on the meshes of the gabion, this filling for instance on the meshes (15-30), forming the base (13) of the gabion (10), use a smaller size of grid (30) to avoid the edged of the material projecting from the same (30), which on placing the gabion down (10) on the ground, or on another gabion (10) of the same or different size, could affect its settling and stability.
  • joining two or more meshes (16), (13) and (37) for instance is done, as can be seen in Figure 10 , by staples (18), the configuration of which (as an example, but not exclusively in this manner) can be seen in in Figure 4 , which (18) come off a comb (19), through stapling gun (18), not shown in the illustrations.
  • the staples (18) connect two or more rods (11), as may be seen in Figure 10 , but leaving a certain gap and/or play, so that joining two or more meshes (16), (13) and (37) for instance, leaves a gap (26), between the inner perimeter of the staple (18) and these rods (11) and (12), so that there is an elastic joint between meshes (16-13-37), giving the gabion spatial stability (10) after being loaded, vibrated and placed, or not the cover has the capacity to vary the distance between the different faces, and should be placed in its operating position.
  • the transversal reinforcement meshes (31) may have the same or different configurations and grid size (30), firstly according to the weight of the filling load, the dimensions of the gabion (10) or the rod, or its placement regarding the separation between two or more meshes (31) can be the same or different.
  • bent rods (20-24) which act as a hook (20) formed by a metal U-shaped rod, the ends of which are bent to form closed loops (22), or the hook (24) formed by a U-shaped ben rod, whose arms are bent in convergence and whose free ends are bent on themselves forming loops (22).
  • a Bar grating has been fitted (27) perpendicular to the reinforcement base (13) of the gabion (10) and embedded in the foundations (39), and then a cylindrical tube (29) is placed around it, and finally concrete is poured between the cylindrical tube (29), and the bar grating (27), forming a compact post that facilitates the vertical rigidity of a wall when two or more gabions are placed (10) on top of each other, which if these posts did not exist, could become unstable, either by the weight of one or more of the gabions (10) on top of each other, or as a result of the thrust generated by the materials the sliding of which is what the containment wall is intended to prevent with two or more gabions (10).
  • the gabions (35), in another different format to (10), as represented in Figure (12 ), with a thickness less than these gabions (10), can form a covering for a wall (33), as it has a "U"-shaped transversal section handrail (34), on which a support rests with an "L"-shaped transversal section (38), secured to one of the large bases of the gabion (35) by welding, bolts, clamps, or a similar technical resource.
  • a cable is used (40), secured to one or more rods (12) of the base (13) of the gabion (10), by means of rings (41), the free ends of which are joined with bolts (42), clamping the rings (41) to the cable (40) and rods (12), so that the force of the weight of the filling material is spread regularly on most of the base area (13) being reinforced or not with another mesh (15) according to the weight of the filling material.
  • This cable (40) has on its free ends triangles or loops, the lower base of which is what holds these rods (12) by means of the rings (41) and bolts (42), whereas the opposite ends of the cable (40) are joined to (40) again by terminals (32), a gabion being suspended (10), by means of a conventional hook or similar device (25) secured to the cable of a conventional crane, not shown in the illustrations.
  • rods (20) and (23) can be used, in the configuration shown in in figures 6 and 8 , in which it can be seen how the rod (20) is bent into a "U" shape (21) and the ends form loops (22), while the rod (24) is bent into a triangular shape (21) whose ends are bent to form loops (22).
  • longitudinal rods are used (23) with ends forming loops (22), to secure the long (16-17) or short (36-37) side meshes, as can be seen in Figure 7 .
