Definitions

  • the invention relates to a tank according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • the passage is usually filled after insertion of the tank into the excavation with soil, gravel or other filler, for which, if necessary, a tamper or vibrator is used to compress the filler as a further mounting device.
  • the recesses increase the structural strength of the tank against both internal pressure and external or ground pressure.
  • the filling material in the passage also improves the buckling resistance in the recesses.
  • the introduction and compression of the filler means additional work and some skill, also harbors the risk that lack of insight cavities may remain or the filler material subsequently sets and forms cavities in which the outer wall of the tank is not locally backfilled.
  • a known tank form the aligned, emanating from the bottom and the top recesses each one over the entire chamber continuous passage with a lying approximately in the middle of the waist area.
  • the passage can be filled with cementitious material or gravel. If necessary, reinforcing bars are embedded.
  • a concrete cast cap that fills the depression to the waist area. The production of the concrete cap, such as the reinforcing iron structures to fill the passage, is time consuming and labor intensive.
  • US 2002/0153380 A1 and US 2004/0011786 A1 are plastic tanks, also for ground installation, known to contain the stiffening of the top to the bottom freely continuous passages, which are integrally formed with the outer wall, and when filling the tank in the pit with filler material can be filled.
  • the tank is a monolithic rotational molding.
  • WO 2010/031117 A1 known plastic tank which may be rotationally molded, contains the stiffening tube structures passing through the chamber which define continuous channels and each contain a lost mold core of the production mold, eg an aluminum pipe, in a deformed state.
  • the passages are often filled with filler material in the installed state of the tank.
  • US Pat. No. 4,609,106 is a blow-molded plastic container in a monolithic construction known, the outer wall of two oppositely inserted mandrels is deformed into local frustoconical depressions which abut each other with their bottom walls, are welded together, and have openings in the outer wall.
  • the recess from the underside can not be reliably filled with filler material when installing such a tank.
  • the outgoing from the top recess can be filled from top to bottom wall with filler.
  • the fact that at least any well coming from the bottom can not be properly filled results in the entire earth and traffic load acting on the tank and not being dumped into the ground, but through the outside wall itself, even in the bottom well , must be recorded.
  • the internal pressure in the filled or partially filled tank acts on the lower wells and tends to indulge them undesirable or to produce deformations, which can lead to cracking after a certain aging of the plastic.
  • the invention has for its object to provide a tank of the type mentioned, in which deformation-induced late damage to the tank regardless of its design for the end user or fitter with increased comfort and cost and with easy installation are excluded.
  • the plastic molded part as a load-receiving element fills out at least the depression extending from the underside of the tank and is resistant to deformation, stress peaks and deformations are excluded in the depression, which could lead to a later formation of cracks, since the outer wall is also in the region of the recess on the plastic. Molded part is supported. The molded part is fitted to a foundation (in free installation) prior to placing the tank in the excavation pit or before seating and is seated relatively firmly in the recess before it is secured by either weight or earth pressure in the recess. He can even be fitted with the manufacturer.
  • the molded part can be manufactured as an accessory of the tank and supplied in sufficient or desired number or procured separately, and is used in accordance with regulations, regardless of the manufacturing process of the tank, its safety against unwanted deformation and cracking.
  • the load-receiving element is a, preferably hollow, casting, rotating, injection molding or blow molding of plastic.
  • the molded part is inexpensive, easy to install and permanently fulfills its purpose. He is so fit into the depression that he at least substantially the depression fits accurately and supports, or at least a predetermined depth section of the recess in which deformations and cracks are to be feared.
  • the molded part is at least securely positioned in the recess with a press fit.
  • This press fit results z. B. from the vote of the outer shape of the load-receiving element on the inner shape of the recess or a predetermined depth portion of the recess and ensures that when raised tank molding does not fall out while the tank is lowered into the pit or on the foundation.
  • a molded part is fitted at least into the recess extending from the underside. The molded part can be fitted during installation of the tank on site, or if necessary, already established by the manufacturer of the tank and then permanently secured in the recess.
  • the respective load-receiving element A may have outer sides 10 which are closed on all sides, or may be filled with filling material 11, and is a separately cast, rotational, injection-molded or blow-molded plastic molded part from the tank T. Its outer shape is the inner shape and optionally-size of the respective recess 4a, 4b of the tank T adjusted.
  • Fig. 4 shows remain after installation of the tank T of Fig. 3 into the ground 2, the lower cavities 5b largely empty, so that there, as indicated at 15, traffic loads or the internal pressure or the earth pressure can lead to deformation, which can occur with increasing aging of the tank at 14 cracking.
  • the upper cavities 5a are optionally filled with soil 2a or other filling material which may be compacted to stabilize at least the recesses 4a.
  • Fig. 5 at the tank of Fig. 3 at least each open at the bottom U cavity 5b in the recess 4b filled with a mounting device V in the form of a load-receiving element A.
  • the load-receiving element A is designed similarly as described Fig. 2 explained, that is made separately stable from the tank T and fitted into the recess 4b, such that the recess 4b is at least substantially filled, or at least a predetermined depth portion of the recess 4b, starting from the lower opening 13, filled.
  • the outer shape of the load-receiving element A also corresponds here to the inner shape of the recess 4b.
  • the load-bearing element A can be positioned with a press fit, and is either fitted on site during installation of the tank or already fitted by the manufacturer and optionally permanently fixed (welding, stapling, gluing, latching, etc.). Thanks to the fitted load-bearing element A, the wall in the region of the depression 4b better withstand forces exerted by the internal pressure and / or traffic loads in the direction of the arrow 16 or is freed from forces acting in the direction of the arrow 17, for example on the ground. Expediently, in particular, the wall of the depression, for example 4 b, is stabilized by the load-bearing element used.
  • each lower-side recess 4b filled with a load-receiving element A.
  • the upper recesses 4a may be filled with soil 2a or filler. However, it is also possible, as in Fig. 5 indicated on the left, also in each or at least one upper recess 4a to insert a suitable load-receiving element A.
  • the Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 show perspective views of such usable as mounting devices V load-bearing elements A.
  • the respective recess 4a, 4b which usually tapered inwardly with a Entformungsschräge either truncated or truncated pyramid is also the outer shape of the respective load-receiving element A in the 6 and 7 adapted to the inner shape of the recess designed as a truncated cone or truncated pyramid.
  • the load-bearing elements A are on all sides closed (top wall 18, bottom wall 20, shell wall 19 at the truncated cone, top wall 18 ', shell walls 19', bottom wall 20 'at the truncated pyramid in Fig. 7 ), although certainly at least one opening could be formed, which is not detrimental to the load-bearing properties of the load-bearing element.
  • the load-bearing element A can be welded to the tank T, adhered thereto or adhesively bonded.
  • FIG. 8 shows in perspective a load-bearing element block B (integral or joined) as a mounting device V, for example, for a tank (not shown), in its outer wall, for example, starting from the bottom several (here four, for example) closely adjacent and trimmed recesses 4b, 4a has ,
  • the block B comprises, as it were, four load-bearing elements A, which are connected in connecting regions 21 and can have two differently shaped upper sides 18, 18 ', eg corresponding to the depressions of the tank. Between the bottom walls 12 of the upper sides 18, 18 'are stiffening channel-shaped transitions 22, optionally formed even with molded ribs or webs 23. It is important that the inserted block B with its outer side 10 at least the walls in the wells of the tank stably supported.
