Definitions
- the present invention relates to a device for reducing the propagation of sound, vibrations and pressure surges in a liquid, in particular of sound occurring when an object is introduced into a subsurface and / or in particular in water, with several damping bodies that can be filled with a gas and a carrier which the damping bodies can be arranged in a suitable relative position to one another, the carrier having a frame with horizontal linkage elements.
- a device of the type mentioned is for example from WO 2009/121336 A2 known.
- the known device has a plurality of damping bodies which can be filled with a gas and which are fastened to a carrier.
- the carrier and the damping bodies are made in one piece from a thin, elastic hose material, the damping bodies being delimited from one another by constrictions or welding webs in the hose material.

- the above object is achieved by a device with the features of claim 1.
- the device is designed and developed in such a way that the damping bodies are arranged on the horizontal rod elements in such a way that individual damping bodies can be decoupled from the rod element and attached to the rod element again.
- the defective damping body can also be removed for quick repair and attached again to the linkage element after the repair.
- the problem of a possibly irreparable damping body with the consequence of a permanent functional impairment - as with the known carrier made of hose material and the damping bodies formed thereon - no longer exists with the device according to the invention.
- the device according to the invention it is also possible without any problems, depending on the application, to arrange a different number of damping bodies on the carrier - the linkage element. This is not possible with the known hose-like carrier, since the number of damping bodies is initially specified in the manufacture of the carrier-damping body hose.
- the device according to the invention provides a device in which safe operation of the device is made possible with structurally simple means.
- the frame could have several vertical and horizontal rod elements arranged perpendicular to one another.
- the Frame have a kind of lattice structure made of rod elements arranged perpendicular to one another.
- the device could be arranged around an object to be introduced into a subsurface in such a way that the vertical rod elements could run essentially parallel to, for example, a post or nail to be introduced.
- the term horizontal or vertical ultimately refers to an orientation relative to the ground or the bottom of the water, both of which run essentially in a horizontal plane.
- the frame could be made of metal, for example.
- steel or stainless steel could be used as the metal.
- a configuration made of plastic, in particular fiber-reinforced plastic, would be conceivable with a view to simpler handling of the device for reasons of weight, in particular during transport.
- the frame could have a plurality of frame areas made up of horizontal rod elements, which are coupled to one another via cables.
- the different frame areas made up of horizontal rod elements could be positioned in the liquid at different depths.
- the coupling of these frame areas then takes place via ropes which, as it were, replace the vertical rod elements present in the previously explained embodiment.
- the connection of the frame areas via the cables thus holds the entire device together and enables particularly space-saving storage or space-saving transport of the device when it is not in use.
- the frame areas could be positioned close to one another when the ropes are rolled up or otherwise put together in order to achieve the space-saving effect.
- this configuration of the device also enables material to be saved, since less material is usually required for the provision of the ropes than for vertical rod elements.
- damping bodies attached to the horizontal rod elements could be vented and / or arranged one above the other.
- a kind of folding up of the device could be achieved.
- an uppermost frame area could be designed as a floating body, which could be positioned on the surface or in the area of the surface of the liquid when the device is in use.
- the remaining frame areas could be designed in such a way that they do not experience any buoyancy force.
- winches for the ropes could be assigned to this uppermost frame area.
- the winches could be hydraulic winches.
- the winches could be permanently coupled to the uppermost frame area.
- the frame could have several frame parts or rod elements that can be pivoted relative to one another about at least one pivot axis.
- several linkage elements could form such a pivotable frame part, or pivot axes could also be implemented between individual linkage elements, which allow angular positioning of the linkage elements relative to one another.
- the frame parts or linkage elements could be pivotable relative to one another in such a way that a cylinder jacket-like frame with a substantially closed jacket can be produced.
- a jacket could, for example, securely enclose a pile to be driven into a subsurface during ramming in such a way that a maximum of reducing effect with regard to the propagation of the sound can be achieved.
- the cylinder jacket-like frame could enclose a post or another object as a cylinder jacket with a polygonal base area corresponding to the number of frame parts or rod elements.
- the frame parts or linkage elements could be pivotable relative to one another in such a way that a substantially hood-shaped frame can be generated.
- a nail to be inserted into a subsurface could essentially be enclosed from above and from the side by means of such a hood-shaped frame.
- a hood that can be placed on a nail in this way could have a passage for an impact tool acting on the nail.
- the damping bodies could also be releasably attached to the foundation body before the foundation descends and, triggered from above, float up after the pile-driving process for reuse.
- a pressure line for introducing the gas into the damping body could be assigned to the frame.
- each damping body could be flow-connected to the pressure line.
- a separate flow connection or flow line or pressure line from a pressure source to each individual damping body would also be conceivable and could enable the damping body to be pressurized in a particularly individual manner.
- the pressure line or the pressure lines could or could in principle be guided along the frame and attached to the outside of the frame.
- the pressure line or the pressure lines could be integrated into the frame or arranged in the linkage elements. Damage to the pressure lines from the outside could thereby be safely avoided.
- the damping bodies could be able to be acted upon with different gas pressures, preferably depending on their depth position in the liquid. This could ensure that the damping bodies always occupy an equally large volume in the liquid regardless of an existing depth-related external pressure.
- a pressure control device and / or at least one pressure reducer could be assigned to the pressure line.
- pressure reducers with different reducing behavior could be used in the pressure line.
- damping bodies positioned at the same depth could be subjected to the same pressure.
- Damping bodies positioned lower down could be subjected to a higher pressure in order to counteract the external pressure that increases with increasing depth.
- the damping bodies could have a sound-insulating open- or closed-pore material in their interior - preferably on their inner wall.
- a material could be foam, which is particularly effective in an open-pored configuration.
- open-pore foam or an open-pore material usually relaxes.
- So-called lifting cushions with an area size of 1 to 1.5 m 2 could be used as damping bodies in a particularly advantageous and practical manner.
- Such lifting cushions are particularly easy to handle, in particular because of their size.
- these are flat damping bodies when not filled with gas, which can be inflated and thus unfolded by the introduction of the gas.
- damping bodies could have a soft covering medium made of rubber with a reinforcement, preferably an aramid cord insert. This results in a high level of robustness against external damage and corrosion.
- so-called lifting bags are usually pressure-resistant up to 8 bar and can therefore be used up to a depth of at least 70 meters in a liquid, for example water.
- the damping bodies could have at least one eyelet for attachment to the frame, to a frame part or to a linkage element.
- the simple assembly also results in simple exchangeability in the event of damage.
- the damping bodies fastened to the frame in particular lifting cushions, orient themselves upwards in the liquid or in the water even without the gas being filled in due to the buoyancy effect.
- the damping bodies or lifting cushions can be attached to the frame in such a way that the entire device allows a flow of the liquid through, so that when the device is installed, little lateral force is exerted on the device by the flow. This facilitates the installation of the device in the field of use.
- the damping bodies can be filled with the gas or supplied with compressed air.
- the reduction in the propagation of the sound results in particular from the fact that sound waves or sound pressure have to penetrate the damping body after a short water distance between an object to be introduced and the device of about 0.5 to 1 m.
- Fig. 1 shows in a perspective illustration an embodiment of a device for reducing the propagation of sound in a liquid.
- the device is used when introducing an object 1 into a subsurface.
- the object 1 is formed by a pile that is to be introduced into the subsoil of a body of water.
- the device has a plurality of damping bodies 2 which can be filled with a gas and a carrier 3 on which the damping bodies 2 are arranged in a suitable position relative to one another.
- the carrier 3 has a frame 4 with horizontal rod elements 5.
- the damping bodies 2 are attached to these linkage elements 5.
- the damping body 2 are according to Fig. 1 arranged around the object 1 in such a way that the object 1 is essentially completely enclosed.
- the damping bodies 2 overlap slightly or in a suitable manner.
- the frame 4 has a plurality of vertical rod elements 6 and horizontal rod elements 5 arranged perpendicular to one another. To position the device around the object 1, the closed state can be brought into an open state of the device.
- the frame 4 has several pivot axes 7 so that individual frame parts 8 can be pivoted relative to one another.
- the Fig. 2 and 3 show in a partial and enlarged side view the embodiment from FIG Fig. 1 .
- the cushioning body 2 which is designed as a cushion, is not yet filled with gas.
- the damping bodies 2 are already essentially arranged in their position of use, since the buoyancy prevailing under water pushes the damping bodies 2 attached to the horizontal rod elements 5 upwards.
- Fig. 3 shows the same situation with damping bodies 2 which are filled with gas.
- the Fig. 4 and 5 show schematically the embodiment from Fig. 1 , where in Fig. 4 the above mentioned open and in Fig. 5 the above-mentioned closed state of the device are shown.
- the frame 4 has a plurality of frame parts 8 which can be pivoted relative to one another about pivot axes 7.
- the frame parts 8 can be pivoted with respect to one another in such a way that a cylinder jacket-like frame 4 with an essentially closed jacket can be produced, as shown in FIG Fig. 5 is shown.
- an object 1 such as a pile can easily be completely enclosed by the device while it is being driven into a subsurface, so that a reliable reduction in the propagation of sound generated during the driving process can be achieved.
- the vertical linkage elements 6 can be replaced by ropes, so that the device is ultimately made up of several ring-like frame parts 8 which are coupled to one another via the ropes. In this case, a particularly space-saving storage of the device outside of its use is possible.

Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung zur Verminderung der Ausbreitung von Schall, Schwingungen und Druckstößen in einer Flüssigkeit, insbesondere von beim Einbringen eines Objekts in einen Untergrund auftretendem Schall und/oder insbesondere in Wasser, mit mehreren mit einem Gas befüllbaren Dämpfungskörpern und einem Träger, an dem die Dämpfungskörper in geeigneter relativer Position zueinander anordenbar sind, wobei der Träger einen Rahmen mit horizontalen Gestängeelementen aufweist.The present invention relates to a device for reducing the propagation of sound, vibrations and pressure surges in a liquid, in particular of sound occurring when an object is introduced into a subsurface and / or in particular in water, with several damping bodies that can be filled with a gas and a carrier which the damping bodies can be arranged in a suitable relative position to one another, the carrier having a frame with horizontal linkage elements.
Eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art ist beispielsweise aus der
Vorrichtungen der eingangs genannten Art dienen insbesondere der Verminderung des Unterwasserschalls bei Rammarbeiten für Offshore-Windenergieanlagen. Bei den Gründungsarbeiten zur Errichtung derartiger Anlagen werden überwiegend Schlagrammen eingesetzt, die einen äußerst intensiven Schall unter Wasser erzeugen, der die Hörorgane von Meeressäugern und Fischen schädigen kann. Außerdem kann das Verhalten der Tiere über einen Radius von vielen Kilometern beeinträchtigt werden. Es besteht daher die dringende Notwendigkeit, die Unterwasser-Schallausbreitung bei Rammarbeiten zu verringern. Derartige Rammarbeiten umfassen nicht nur das Einbringen von Pfählen, sondern auch das Einbringen von Nägeln in den Untergrund, um Sockelelemente für Tragpfähle am Meeresboden oder Gewässerboden zu fixieren. Auch beim Einbringen derartiger Nägel wird intensiver Schall unter Wasser erzeugt.Devices of the type mentioned at the outset are used in particular to reduce underwater noise during pile-driving work for offshore wind turbines. In the foundation work for the construction of such systems, impact hammers are predominantly used, which generate an extremely intense sound under water, which can damage the hearing organs of marine mammals and fish. In addition, the behavior of the animals can be impaired over a radius of many kilometers. There is therefore an urgent need to reduce the underwater sound propagation during pile driving. Such pile-driving work includes not only the introduction of piles, but also the introduction of nails into the subsoil in order to fix base elements for support piles on the seabed or the seabed. When such nails are inserted, intense noise is generated under water.
Bei der aus der
Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt daher die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Vorrichtung der eingangs genannten Art derart auszugestalten und weiterzubilden, dass ein sicherer Betrieb der Vorrichtung mit konstruktiv einfachen Mitteln ermöglicht ist.The present invention is therefore based on the object of designing and developing a device of the type mentioned at the beginning in such a way that safe operation of the device is made possible with structurally simple means.
Erfindungsgemäß wird die voranstehende Aufgabe durch eine Vorrichtung mit den Merkmalen des Anspruchs 1 gelöst. Danach ist die Vorrichtung derart ausgestaltet und weitergebildet, dass die Dämpfungskörper derart an den horizontalen Gestängeelementen angeordnet sind, dass einzelne Dämpfungskörper von dem Gestängeelement entkoppelbar und wieder an dem Gestängeelement anbringbar sind.According to the invention, the above object is achieved by a device with the features of
In erfindungsgemäßer Weise ist zunächst erkannt worden, dass ein einteiliger Aufbau des Trägers und der Dämpfungskörper aus einem Schlauchmaterial insbesondere bei einem erforderlichen Austausch der Dämpfungskörper oder im Reparaturfall äußerst ungünstig ist. In weiter erfindungsgemäßer Weise ist dann erkannt worden, dass die Ausgestaltung des Trägers mit einem Rahmen, der horizontale Gestängeelemente aufweist, die voranstehende Aufgabe auf überraschend einfache Weise löst. Im Konkreten ist es nun möglich, die Dämpfungskörper in geeigneter relativer Position zueinander an dem horizontalen Gestängeelement anzuordnen. Bei Auftreten eines Defekts oder einer Undichtigkeit eines einzelnen Dämpfungskörpers reicht es nun aus, den einzelnen Dämpfungskörper von dem Gestängeelement zu entkoppeln und einen intakten Dämpfungskörper als Austausch an dem Gestängeelement anzubringen. Gegebenenfalls kann der defekte Dämpfungskörper auch zur schnellen Reparatur entnommen und nach der Reparatur wieder an dem Gestängeelement angebracht werden. Das Problem eines möglicherweise irreparablen Dämpfungskörpers mit der Folge einer dauerhaften Funktionsbeeinträchtigung - wie bei dem bekannten Träger aus Schlauchmaterial und den daran ausgebildeten Dämpfungskörpern - besteht bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung nicht mehr. Bei der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist es auch problemlos möglich, je nach Einsatzerfordernis eine unterschiedliche Anzahl von Dämpfungskörpern am Träger - dem Gestängeelement - anzuordnen. Bei dem bekannten schlauchartigen Träger ist dies nicht möglich, da die Anzahl an Dämpfungskörpern bei der Herstellung des Träger-Dämpfungskörper-Schlauchs anfänglich vorgegeben wird.In the manner according to the invention, it was first recognized that a one-piece construction of the carrier and the damping body from a hose material is extremely unfavorable, particularly when the damping body needs to be replaced or in the event of a repair. In a further way according to the invention, it was then recognized that the design of the carrier with a frame which has horizontal rod elements solves the above problem in a surprisingly simple manner. In concrete terms, it is now possible to arrange the damping bodies in a suitable position relative to one another on the horizontal linkage element. If a defect or a leak in an individual damping body occurs, it is now sufficient to decouple the individual damping body from the linkage element and to replace an intact damping body on the linkage element. If necessary, the defective damping body can also be removed for quick repair and attached again to the linkage element after the repair. The problem of a possibly irreparable damping body with the consequence of a permanent functional impairment - as with the known carrier made of hose material and the damping bodies formed thereon - no longer exists with the device according to the invention. With the device according to the invention it is also possible without any problems, depending on the application, to arrange a different number of damping bodies on the carrier - the linkage element. This is not possible with the known hose-like carrier, since the number of damping bodies is initially specified in the manufacture of the carrier-damping body hose.
Folglich ist mit der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung eine Vorrichtung angegeben, bei der ein sicherer Betrieb der Vorrichtung mit konstruktiv einfachen Mitteln ermöglicht ist.Consequently, the device according to the invention provides a device in which safe operation of the device is made possible with structurally simple means.
Im Hinblick auf einen besonders sicheren Betrieb und eine besonders stabile Ausgestaltung der Vorrichtung könnte der Rahmen mehrere senkrecht zueinander angeordnete vertikale und horizontale Gestängeelemente aufweisen. Mit anderen Worten könnte der Rahmen eine Art Gitterstruktur aus zueinander senkrecht angeordneten Gestängeelementen aufweisen. Dabei könnte die Vorrichtung derart um ein in einen Untergrund einzubringendes Objekt angeordnet werden, dass die vertikalen Gestängeelemente im Wesentlichen parallel zu beispielsweise einem einzubringenden Pfahl oder Nagel verlaufen könnten. Die Bezeichnung horizontal oder vertikal bezieht sich letztendlich auf eine Orientierung relativ zum Erdboden oder Gewässerboden, die beide jeweils im Wesentlichen in einer horizontalen Ebene verlaufen.With a view to particularly safe operation and a particularly stable configuration of the device, the frame could have several vertical and horizontal rod elements arranged perpendicular to one another. In other words, the Frame have a kind of lattice structure made of rod elements arranged perpendicular to one another. The device could be arranged around an object to be introduced into a subsurface in such a way that the vertical rod elements could run essentially parallel to, for example, a post or nail to be introduced. The term horizontal or vertical ultimately refers to an orientation relative to the ground or the bottom of the water, both of which run essentially in a horizontal plane.
Hinsichtlich einer besonders sicheren und stabilen Ausgestaltung könnte der Rahmen beispielsweise aus Metall ausgebildet sein. Als Metall könnte hier beispielsweise Stahl oder Edelstahl zum Einsatz kommen. Eine Ausgestaltung aus Kunststoff, insbesondere faserverstärktem Kunststoff, wäre im Hinblick auf eine aus Gewichtsgründen einfachere Handhabung der Vorrichtung, insbesondere bei einem Transport, denkbar.With regard to a particularly safe and stable configuration, the frame could be made of metal, for example. For example, steel or stainless steel could be used as the metal. A configuration made of plastic, in particular fiber-reinforced plastic, would be conceivable with a view to simpler handling of the device for reasons of weight, in particular during transport.
Bei einer weiteren bevorzugten Ausgestaltung könnte der Rahmen mehrere aus horizontalen Gestängeelementen aufgebaute Rahmenbereiche aufweisen, die über Seile miteinander gekoppelt sind. Mit anderen Worten könnten die aus horizontalen Gestängeelementen aufgebauten unterschiedlichen Rahmenbereiche quasi in unterschiedlichen Tiefen in der Flüssigkeit positionierbar sein. Die Kopplung dieser Rahmenbereiche erfolgt dann über Seile, die quasi die beim vorher erläuterten Ausführungsbeispiel vorhandenen vertikalen Gestängeelemente ersetzen. Die Verbindung der Rahmenbereiche über die Seile hält damit die gesamte Vorrichtung zusammen und ermöglicht eine besonders raumsparende Lagerung oder einen raumsparenden Transport der Vorrichtung, wenn diese nicht im Einsatz ist. Letztlich könnten die Rahmenbereiche bei aufgerollten oder sonst wie zusammengenommenen Seilen eng aneinander positioniert werden, um den Raumspareffekt zu erreichen. Letztendlich ermöglicht diese Ausgestaltung der Vorrichtung auch eine Materialersparnis, da für die Bereitstellung der Seile üblicherweise weniger Material erforderlich ist als für vertikale Gestängeelemente. Bei der raumsparenden Anordnung mit aneinander angeordneten Rahmenbereichen könnten an den horizontalen Gestängeelementen befestigte Dämpfungskörper entlüftet und/oder übereinander angeordnet werden. Letztendlich könnte mit diesem erläuterten Ausführungsbeispiel eine Art Zusammenfalten der Vorrichtung erreicht werden.In a further preferred embodiment, the frame could have a plurality of frame areas made up of horizontal rod elements, which are coupled to one another via cables. In other words, the different frame areas made up of horizontal rod elements could be positioned in the liquid at different depths. The coupling of these frame areas then takes place via ropes which, as it were, replace the vertical rod elements present in the previously explained embodiment. The connection of the frame areas via the cables thus holds the entire device together and enables particularly space-saving storage or space-saving transport of the device when it is not in use. Ultimately, the frame areas could be positioned close to one another when the ropes are rolled up or otherwise put together in order to achieve the space-saving effect. Ultimately, this configuration of the device also enables material to be saved, since less material is usually required for the provision of the ropes than for vertical rod elements. In the case of the space-saving arrangement with frame areas arranged next to one another, damping bodies attached to the horizontal rod elements could be vented and / or arranged one above the other. Ultimately, with this illustrated embodiment, a kind of folding up of the device could be achieved.
Im Hinblick auf eine besonders komfortable und einfache Ausgestaltung des zuletzt erläuterten Ausführungsbeispiels könnte ein oberster Rahmenbereich als Schwimmkörper ausgebildet sein, der auf der Oberfläche oder im Bereich der Oberfläche der Flüssigkeit positioniert sein könnte, wenn die Vorrichtung im Einsatz ist. Die übrigen Rahmenbereiche könnten so ausgebildet sein, dass sie keine Auftriebskraft erfahren.With regard to a particularly convenient and simple configuration of the last-explained embodiment, an uppermost frame area could be designed as a floating body, which could be positioned on the surface or in the area of the surface of the liquid when the device is in use. The remaining frame areas could be designed in such a way that they do not experience any buoyancy force.
Hinsichtlich einer einfachen Handhabung der die Rahmenbereiche verbindenden Seile könnten diesem obersten Rahmenbereich Winden für die Seile zugeordnet sein. Die Winden könnten hydraulische Winden sein. Weiterhin könnten die Winden fest mit dem obersten Rahmenbereich gekoppelt sein.With regard to simple handling of the ropes connecting the frame areas, winches for the ropes could be assigned to this uppermost frame area. The winches could be hydraulic winches. Furthermore, the winches could be permanently coupled to the uppermost frame area.
Im Hinblick auf eine möglichst flexible Anpassung der Gestaltung der Vorrichtung an beim Einsatz der Vorrichtung vorliegende Gegebenheiten, beispielsweise die Form eines einzubringenden Objekts, könnte der Rahmen mehrere um mindestens eine Schwenkachse zueinander verschwenkbare Rahmenteile oder Gestängeelemente aufweisen. Dabei könnten mehrere Gestängeelemente ein derart verschwenkbares Rahmenteil bilden oder es könnten auch jeweils zwischen einzelnen Gestängeelementen Schwenkachsen realisiert sein, die eine Winkelpositionierung der Gestängeelemente relativ zueinander ermöglichen.With a view to adapting the design of the device as flexibly as possible to the conditions prevailing when the device is used, for example the shape of an object to be introduced, the frame could have several frame parts or rod elements that can be pivoted relative to one another about at least one pivot axis. In this case, several linkage elements could form such a pivotable frame part, or pivot axes could also be implemented between individual linkage elements, which allow angular positioning of the linkage elements relative to one another.
Im Hinblick auf einen besonders sicheren Betrieb der Vorrichtung und im Hinblick auf eine besonders effektive Verminderung der Ausbreitung von Schall könnten die Rahmenteile oder Gestängeelemente derart zueinander verschwenkbar sein, dass ein zylindermantelartiger Rahmen mit im Wesentlichen geschlossenem Mantel erzeugbar ist. Ein derartiger Mantel könnte beispielsweise einen in einen Untergrund einzurammenden Pfahl während des Rammens derart sicher umschließen, dass ein Höchstmaß an Verminderungswirkung hinsichtlich der Ausbreitung des Schalls erreicht werden kann. Der zylindermantelartige Rahmen könnte einen Pfahl oder ein anderes Objekt als Zylindermantel mit entsprechend der Anzahl an Rahmenteilen oder Gestängeelementen vieleckiger Grundfläche umschließen. In einer weiter vorteilhaften Ausgestaltung könnten die Rahmenteile oder Gestängeelemente derart zueinander verschwenkbar sein, dass ein im Wesentlichen haubenförmiger Rahmen erzeugbar ist. Ein in einen Untergrund einzubringender Nagel könnte mittels eines derart haubenförmigen Rahmens von oben und seitlich im Wesentlichen umschlossen werden. Eine derart auf einen Nagel aufsetzbare Haube könnte einen Durchgang für ein auf den Nagel einwirkendes Schlagwerkzeug haben. Die Dämpfungskörper könnten auch vor Abtauchen der Gründung lösbar am Gründungskörper befestigt werden und nach dem Rammvorgang von oben ausgelöst zur Wiederverwendung aufschwimmen.With regard to a particularly safe operation of the device and with regard to a particularly effective reduction in the propagation of sound, the frame parts or linkage elements could be pivotable relative to one another in such a way that a cylinder jacket-like frame with a substantially closed jacket can be produced. Such a jacket could, for example, securely enclose a pile to be driven into a subsurface during ramming in such a way that a maximum of reducing effect with regard to the propagation of the sound can be achieved. The cylinder jacket-like frame could enclose a post or another object as a cylinder jacket with a polygonal base area corresponding to the number of frame parts or rod elements. In a further advantageous embodiment, the frame parts or linkage elements could be pivotable relative to one another in such a way that a substantially hood-shaped frame can be generated. A nail to be inserted into a subsurface could essentially be enclosed from above and from the side by means of such a hood-shaped frame. A hood that can be placed on a nail in this way could have a passage for an impact tool acting on the nail. The damping bodies could also be releasably attached to the foundation body before the foundation descends and, triggered from above, float up after the pile-driving process for reuse.
Im Hinblick auf eine sichere Befüllung der Dämpfungskörper mit dem gewünschten Gas könnte dem Rahmen eine Druckleitung für das Einbringen des Gases in die Dämpfungskörper zugeordnet sein. Im Konkreten könnte jeder Dämpfungskörper mit der Druckleitung strömungsverbunden sein. Auch eine jeweils separate Strömungsverbindung oder Strömungsleitung oder Druckleitung von einer Druckquelle zu jedem einzelnen Dämpfungskörper wäre denkbar und könnte eine besonders individuelle Druckbeaufschlagung der Dämpfungskörper ermöglichen. Die Druckleitung oder die Druckleitungen könnte oder könnten grundsätzlich entlang des Rahmens geführt sein und an dem Rahmen außen befestigt sein. Hinsichtlich eines besonders sicheren und geschützten Betriebs der Vorrichtung könnte die Druckleitung oder könnten die Druckleitungen in den Rahmen integriert oder in den Gestängeelementen angeordnet sein. Eine Beschädigung der Druckleitungen von außen könnte hierdurch sicher vermieden werden.With a view to reliably filling the damping body with the desired gas, a pressure line for introducing the gas into the damping body could be assigned to the frame. In concrete terms, each damping body could be flow-connected to the pressure line. A separate flow connection or flow line or pressure line from a pressure source to each individual damping body would also be conceivable and could enable the damping body to be pressurized in a particularly individual manner. The pressure line or the pressure lines could or could in principle be guided along the frame and attached to the outside of the frame. With regard to a particularly safe and Protected operation of the device, the pressure line or the pressure lines could be integrated into the frame or arranged in the linkage elements. Damage to the pressure lines from the outside could thereby be safely avoided.
Zum Ausgleich an unterschiedliche Druckverhältnisse in unterschiedlichen Tiefen in der Flüssigkeit könnten die Dämpfungskörper - vorzugsweise in Abhängigkeit ihrer Tiefenposition in der Flüssigkeit - mit unterschiedlichem Gasdruck beaufschlagbar sein. Dadurch könnte sichergestellt sein, dass die Dämpfungskörper unabhängig von einem vorliegenden tiefenbedingten Außendruck stets ein gleichgroßes Volumen in der Flüssigkeit einnehmen.To compensate for different pressure conditions at different depths in the liquid, the damping bodies could be able to be acted upon with different gas pressures, preferably depending on their depth position in the liquid. This could ensure that the damping bodies always occupy an equally large volume in the liquid regardless of an existing depth-related external pressure.
Hinsichtlich einer komfortablen und sicheren Druckbeaufschlagung der Dämpfungskörper könnte der Druckleitung eine Drucksteuereinrichtung und/oder mindestens ein Druckminderer zugeordnet sein. Je nach vorgesehener Tiefenposition in der Flüssigkeit könnten Druckminderer mit unterschiedlichem Minderungsverhalten in der Druckleitung eingesetzt werden. Grundsätzlich könnten in gleicher Tiefe positionierte Dämpfungskörper mit dem gleichen Druck beaufschlagt werden. Tiefer positionierte Dämpfungskörper könnten mit einem höheren Druck beaufschlagt werden, um dem mit zunehmender Tiefe zunehmenden Außendruck entgegenzuwirken.With regard to a comfortable and safe application of pressure to the damping body, a pressure control device and / or at least one pressure reducer could be assigned to the pressure line. Depending on the intended depth position in the liquid, pressure reducers with different reducing behavior could be used in the pressure line. Basically, damping bodies positioned at the same depth could be subjected to the same pressure. Damping bodies positioned lower down could be subjected to a higher pressure in order to counteract the external pressure that increases with increasing depth.
Zur Realisierung einer besonders wirkungsvollen Schallabsorption und Verminderung der Ausbreitung von Schall könnten die Dämpfungskörper in ihrem Inneren - vorzugsweise an ihrer Innenwandung - ein schallisolierendes offen- oder geschlossenporiges Material aufweisen. Ein derartiges Material könnte Schaumstoff sein, der insbesondere in offenporiger Ausgestaltung besonders wirkungsvoll ist. Insbesondere beim Einbringen von Gas in den Dämpfungskörper entspannt sich offenporiger Schaumstoff oder ein offenporiges Material üblicherweise.In order to achieve particularly effective sound absorption and to reduce the propagation of sound, the damping bodies could have a sound-insulating open- or closed-pore material in their interior - preferably on their inner wall. Such a material could be foam, which is particularly effective in an open-pored configuration. In particular, when gas is introduced into the damping body, open-pore foam or an open-pore material usually relaxes.
Als Dämpfungskörper könnten in besonders vorteilhafter und praktischer Weise sogenannte Hebekissen mit beispielsweise einer Flächengröße von 1 bis 1,5m2 verwendet werden. Derartige Hebekissen sind in der Handhabung insbesondere aufgrund ihrer Größe besonders einfach. Letztendlich handelt es sich hierbei um im nicht mit Gas befüllten Zustand flache Dämpfungskörper, die durch das Einbringen des Gases aufblasbar und damit entfaltbar sind. So-called lifting cushions with an area size of 1 to 1.5 m 2 , for example, could be used as damping bodies in a particularly advantageous and practical manner. Such lifting cushions are particularly easy to handle, in particular because of their size. Ultimately, these are flat damping bodies when not filled with gas, which can be inflated and thus unfolded by the introduction of the gas.
Derartige Dämpfungskörper könnten ein weiches Hüllmedium aus Gummi mit einer Verstärkung, vorzugsweise Aramidcordeinlage, aufweisen. Hierbei ergibt sich eine hohe Robustheit gegen äußere Beschädigungen und Korrosion. Des Weiteren sind sogenannte Hebekissen üblicherweise bis 8 bar druckfest und somit bis mindestens 70 Meter Tiefe in einer Flüssigkeit, beispielsweise Wasser, einsetzbar.Such damping bodies could have a soft covering medium made of rubber with a reinforcement, preferably an aramid cord insert. This results in a high level of robustness against external damage and corrosion. Furthermore, so-called lifting bags are usually pressure-resistant up to 8 bar and can therefore be used up to a depth of at least 70 meters in a liquid, for example water.
In besonders einfacher Weise könnten die Dämpfungskörper mindestens eine Öse zur Befestigung an dem Rahmen, an einem Rahmenteil oder an einem Gestängeelement aufweisen. Aus der einfachen Montierbarkeit ergibt sich auch eine einfache Austauschbarkeit im Falle einer Beschädigung.In a particularly simple manner, the damping bodies could have at least one eyelet for attachment to the frame, to a frame part or to a linkage element. The simple assembly also results in simple exchangeability in the event of damage.
Die an dem Rahmen befestigten Dämpfungskörper, insbesondere Hebekissen, richten sich in der Flüssigkeit oder im Wasser auch ohne eingefülltes Gas aufgrund der Auftriebswirkung nach oben aus. Die Dämpfungskörper oder Hebekissen können dabei derart am Rahmen befestigt werden, dass die gesamte Vorrichtung eine Strömung der Flüssigkeit hindurch lässt, so dass beim Installieren der Vorrichtung wenig Seitenkraft durch die Strömung auf die Vorrichtung ausgeübt wird. Dies erleichtert die Installation der Vorrichtung im Einsatzbereich.The damping bodies fastened to the frame, in particular lifting cushions, orient themselves upwards in the liquid or in the water even without the gas being filled in due to the buoyancy effect. The damping bodies or lifting cushions can be attached to the frame in such a way that the entire device allows a flow of the liquid through, so that when the device is installed, little lateral force is exerted on the device by the flow. This facilitates the installation of the device in the field of use.
Sobald die Vorrichtung um beispielsweise ein einzubringendes Objekt positioniert ist, können die Dämpfungskörper mit dem Gas befüllt oder mit Druckluft versorgt werden.As soon as the device is positioned around an object to be introduced, for example, the damping bodies can be filled with the gas or supplied with compressed air.
Die Verminderung der Ausbreitung des Schalls ergibt sich insbesondere dadurch, dass Schallwellen oder Schalldruck schon nach kurzer Wasserstrecke zwischen einem einzubringenden Objekt und der Vorrichtung von etwa 0,5 bis 1 m in den Dämpfungskörper eindringen müssen. Je nach bevorzugter Ausgestaltung des Dämpfungskörpers bedeutet dies ein Eindringen in das äußere Gummi eines Kissens, in den Schaumstoff, durch die komprimierte Luft im Kissen, wieder in den Schaumstoff und dann wieder in das Gummi des Kissens, bis Schallwellen oder Schalldruck letztendlich das System in deutlich abgeschwächter Form in die Umgebung verlassen bzw. verlässt.The reduction in the propagation of the sound results in particular from the fact that sound waves or sound pressure have to penetrate the damping body after a short water distance between an object to be introduced and the device of about 0.5 to 1 m. Depending on the preferred design of the damping body, this means penetration into the outer rubber of a cushion, into the foam, through the compressed air in the cushion, back into the foam and then back into the rubber of the cushion, until sound waves or sound pressure finally clear the system leave or leave in a weakened form in the environment.
