Description
Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft ein Steckverbindungselement für ein Gerüst, insbesondere ein Baugerüst, welches dazu eingesetzt werden kann, derartige Gerüste mit variabler Gerüsttiefe aufzubauen.The present invention relates to a connector element for a scaffold, in particular a scaffolding, which can be used to construct such scaffolding with variable scaffolding depth.
Gerüste, die beispielsweise als Baugerüst eingesetzt werden, werden im Allgemeinen aus einer Vielzahl übereinander angeordneter bzw. ineinander eingesteckter Vertikalholme und diese verbindenden Horizontalholmen bzw. Diagonalholmen aufgebaut. Insbesondere bei hohen Gerüsten kann es vorteilhaft sein, diese im oberen Bereich mit geringerer Gerüsttiefe aufzubauen, als im unteren Bereich. Dies bedeutet, dass beim Übergang zu einer geringeren Gerüsttiefe zumindest einige der Vertikalholme nicht mehr mit darunter befindlichen Vertikalholmen durch Ineinandereinstecken gekoppelt werden können.Scaffolds which are used, for example, as scaffolding, are generally constructed of a plurality of vertical struts arranged one above the other or inserted into one another and horizontal struts or diagonal struts connecting them. In particular, in the case of high scaffolds, it may be advantageous to build them up in the upper area with a smaller scaffold depth than in the lower area. This means that at the transition to a lower scaffold depth at least some of the vertical beams can not be coupled with underlying vertical beams by nesting.
Um Vertikalholme, welche bezüglich darunter positionierten Vertikalholmen zum Bereitstellen einer geringeren Gerüsttiefe horizontal versetzt anzuordnen sind, gleichwohl stabil an das Gerüst anbinden zu können, können Steckverbindungselemente, auch bekannt als Steckrohrverbinder, eingesetzt werden. Diese werden an horizontal sich erstreckende Gerüstriegel bzw. -holme oder Gitterträger angebunden und bieten dann die Möglichkeit, einen Vertikalholm aufzustecken. Zur Anbindung derartiger Steckverbindungselemente werden im Allgemeinen vorzugsweise horizontal sich erstreckende U-Profilholme eingesetzt, die auch dazu genutzt werden, Bodenplatten mit in deren Endbereichen vorgesehenen Haken einzuhängen. Um das ungewollte Loslösen derartiger Bodenplatten zu verhindern, werden die in die U-Profilholme oder Gitterträger eingesetzten Haken mit Abhubsicherungselementen gesichert, welche die Haken überdecken und mit den U-Profilholmen fest verbunden werden. Der Einsatz derartiger Abhubsicherungselemente führt jedoch dazu, dass mit U-Profilholmen zu koppelnde Steckverbindungselemente beim Positionieren von oben her eine von der Ausgestaltung bzw. der Dicke eines derartigen Abhubsicherungselements abhängige Höhenpositionierung einnehmen. Dies wiederum beeinflusst die Höhenpositionierung eines mit einem derartigen Steckverbindungselement zu koppelnden Vertikalholms.In order to be able to stably connect to vertical beams, which are to be arranged offset horizontally with respect to below provided vertical beams for providing a smaller framework depth, but can connect stably to the scaffold, connector elements, also known as plug-in connector, can be used. These are connected to horizontally extending scaffold bars or spars or lattice girders and then offer the possibility to attach a vertical spar. To connect such connector elements, preferably horizontally extending U-shaped spars are generally used, which are also used to mount floor panels with hooks provided in their end regions. In order to prevent the unwanted detachment of such floor panels, the hooks inserted into the U-shaped spars or lattice girders are secured with Abhubsicherungselementen which cover the hooks and are firmly connected to the U-profile spars. However, the use of such Abhubsicherungselemente results in that to be coupled with U-shaped spars connector elements when positioning from above assume a dependent on the configuration or the thickness of such Abhubsicherungselements height positioning. This in turn affects the Height positioning of a to be coupled with such a connector element vertical beam.

Ein allgemein mit 20 bezeichnetes Steckverbindungselement ist mit dem in einer Gerüsttiefenrichtung sich erstreckenden U-Profilholm 10 gekoppelt. Das Steckverbindungselement 20 ist mit einem Verbindungselementenkörper 22 aufgebaut, der einen Anbindungsbereich 24 mit einem ebenfalls im Wesentlichen U-förmigen Anbindungsabschnitt 25 zur Anbindung des Verbindungselementenkörpers 22 an den U-Profilholm 10 sowie einen im Wesentlichen vertikal nach oben sich erstreckend zu positionierenden Steckverbindungsbereich 26 umfasst. An dem Steckverbindungsbereich 26 kann ein mit einem Gerüst bzw. mit dem U-Profilholm 10 zu koppelnder Vertikalholm als zweites Gerüstelement durch Aufstecken angebracht werden.A generally designated 20 connector element is coupled to the extending in a scaffold depth
Der Anbindungsbereich 24 kann beispielsweise durch Ausstanzen und Umformen eines Blechrohlings erzeugt werden. Wie die
Der Steckverbindungsbereich 26 umfasst einen beispielsweise als Metallrohr ausgebildeten, hohlen Steckverbindungsdorn 40. Dieser ist in seinem unteren, also an den Verbindungsabschnitt 32 des Anbindungsbereichs 24 angrenzenden Endbereich in eine Anschlaghülse 42 eingesteckt. In seinem in die Anschlaghülse 42 eingesteckten Endbereich kann der Steckverbindungsdorn 40 im Inneren der Anschlaghülse 42 beispielsweise durch eine vorzugsweise vollständig ringartig umlaufende Schweißnaht 44 fest an die Anschlaghülse 42 angebunden werden. Die Anschlaghülse 42 wiederum kann durch eine vorzugsweise vollständig ringartig umlaufende Schweißnaht 46 an den Anbindungsbereich 24, insbesondere den Verbindungsabschnitt 32 desselben, fest angebunden werden. Auf diese Art und Weise ist ein stabiler Verbund des Verbindungselementenkörpers 22 geschaffen.The
Im Inneren des Verbindungselementenkörpers 22, insbesondere des hohlen Steckverbindungsdorns 40, ist ein stabartiges, beispielsweise ebenfalls als Metallrohr ausgebildetes Distanzelement 48 aufgenommen. Das in den
Im hohlen, stabartigen Distanzelement 48 sind in Richtung der Distanzelement-Längsachse A aufeinander folgend bzw. zueinander versetzt mehrere erste Arretieröffnungen 54, 56, 58 vorgesehen. Aufgrund der hohlen Ausgestaltung des Distanzelements 48 sind diese ersten Arretieröffnungen 54, 56, 58 tatsächlich jeweils paarweise einander gegenüberliegend vorgesehen. Man erkennt in
Im Verbindungselementenkörper 22 ist in demjenigen Bereich, in welchem die Anschlaghülse 42 und der Steckverbindungsdorn 40 einander überlappen bzw. ineinander eingeschoben sind, eine zweite Arretieröffnung 60 vorgesehen. Aufgrund der hohlen Ausgestaltung sowohl der Anschlaghülse 42, als auch des Steckverbindungsdorns 40, sind auch hier zwei durch diese beiden Bauteile jeweils sich hindurch erstreckende und einander gegenüberliegende zweite Arretieröffnungen 60 vorhanden.In the connecting
Ein durch die einander paarweise gegenüberliegenden zweiten Arretieröffnungen 60 und jeweils ein Paar von ersten Arretieröffnungen 54, 56 oder 58 hindurch geführter Sicherungsbolzen 62 arretiert das Distanzelement 48 in seinem im Wesentlichen die ersten Arretieröffnungen 54, 56, 58 umfassenden ersten Arretierbereich 64 bezüglich des das einander zugehörige Paar von zweiten Arretieröffnungen 60 umfassenden zweiten Arretierbereichs 66. Beispielsweise durch einen am Sicherungsbolzen 62 vorgesehenen Federbügel 68, welcher die Anschlaghülse 42 umgreifend positioniert werden kann, kann der Sicherungsbolzen 62 gegen Loslösen vom Verbindungselementenkörper 22 gesichert werden.A locking
Je nachdem, in welchem Paar von ersten Arretieröffnungen 54, 56, 58 der auch durch das Paar von zweiten Arretieröffnungen 60 hindurchgreifend positionierte Sicherungsbolzen 62 sich erstreckt, ragt das Distanzelement 48 mit seinem Endbereich 50 mehr oder weniger weit in den vom U-förmigen Anbindungsbereich 24 umgrenzten Raum hinein. Beispielsweise ist in

Um das Distanzelement 48 im Verbindungselementenkörper 22 gegen ungewolltes Loslösen bzw. gegen Verlieren sichern zu können, kann bei dem erfindungsgemäßen Aufbau eine Verliersicherungsanordnung 74 vorgesehen sein. Diese kann im Distanzelement eine vorzugsweise langlochartige Verliersicherungsöffnung 76 bzw. aufgrund der hohlen, rohrartigen Ausgestaltung des Distanzelements 48 ein Paar von derartigen Verliersicherungsöffnungen 76 umfassen. Am Verbindungselementenkörper 22 kann, beispielsweise eingesetzt in entsprechende Öffnungen, ein stiftartiges Verliersicherungselement 78 fest getragen sein, welches auch das Paar von Verliersicherungsöffnungen 76 durchsetzt. Aufgrund der langlochartigen Ausgestaltung der Verliersicherungsöffnungen 76 wird einerseits die Verliersicherungsfunktionalität gewährleistet. Andererseits wird gewährleistet, dass das Distanzelement 48 zur Erreichung der verschiedenen vorangehend beschriebenen Einbausituationen im Verbindungselementenkörper 22 verschiebbar ist.In order to secure the
Um weiterhin einen auf den Steckverbindungsbereich 26 aufgesteckten und nach unten hin am Anschlag 70 der Anschlaghülse 42 sich abstützenden Vertikalholm am Steckverbindungselement 20 verriegeln zu können, ist ferner eine Verriegelungsöffnungsanordnung 80 vorgesehen. Diese umfasst in dem Distanzelement eine langlochartige erste Verriegelungsöffnung 82 bzw. ein Paar einander gegenüberliegender erster Verriegelungsöffnungen 82. In Zuordnung dazu ist im Steckverbindungsdorn 40 ein Paar von zweiten Verriegelungsöffnungen 84 einander gegenüberliegend vorgesehen. Durch ein entsprechende Öffnungen im Vertikalholm und die ersten und zweiten Verriegelungsöffnungen 82, 84 durchsetzendes bolzenartiges Verriegelungselement kann somit ein Vertikalholm am Steckverbindungsbereich 26 verriegelt werden, wobei aufgrund der langlochartigen Ausgestaltung des Paares von ersten Verriegelungsöffnungen 82 wiederum die Verschiebbarkeit des Distanzelements 48 im Verbindungselementenkörper 22 nicht beeinträchtigt ist.Furthermore, in order to be able to lock a vertical spar which is plugged onto the
