Even if the marginal gap is made as small as possible, it may happen that a minimum amount of surface water penetrates into this gap. This penetrating surface water can be derived by a rain drain, such as a gutter below the edge gap targeted.

Description

Die vorliegende Erfindung betrifft eine Überbrückungsvorrichtung zur Überbrückung eines Fugenspaltes zwischen einem festen Brückenbauteil und einem beweglichen Brückenbauteil einer beweglichen Brücke.The present invention relates to a bridging device for bridging a joint gap between a fixed bridge component and a movable bridge component of a movable bridge.

Unter einer beweglichen Brücke soll hierbei eine Brücke verstanden werden, deren Tragwerk als Ganzes oder in Teilen bewegt werden kann. Bewegliche Brücken werden in der Regel dazu verwendet, einen Lichtraum unter dem beweglichen Teil der Brücke zeitweise zu vergrößern oder sogar freizugeben. Um den Lichtraum zu vergrößern oder freizugeben wird das bewegliche Brückenbauteil zumindest teilweise vom festen Brückenbauteil abgetrennt und je nach Art der Brücke angehoben (Hubbrücke), hochgeklappt (Klappbrücke) oder in einer horizontalen Ebene verdreht (Drehbrücke). Neben den hier genannten Brücken gibt es noch eine Vielzahl weiterer beweglicher Brücken, auf die sich diese Erfindung ebenfalls bezieht.A movable bridge is to be understood here as meaning a bridge whose supporting structure can be moved as a whole or in parts. Movable bridges are typically used to temporarily increase or even release a clearance under the moving part of the bridge. In order to increase or release the clearance, the movable bridge component is at least partially separated from the fixed bridge component and lifted depending on the type of bridge (lifting bridge), folded up (bascule bridge) or twisted in a horizontal plane (swing bridge). In addition to the bridges mentioned here, there are a variety of other movable bridges, to which this invention also relates.

Im geschlossenen Zustand entsteht zwischen dem beweglichen Brückenbauteil und dem festen Brückenbauteil ein Fugenspalt. Dieser sollte eine definierte Größe haben, um Relativbewegungen zwischen den Bauwerksteilen auszugleichen und so Kontakt und somit Zug-, Druck- oder Torsionsspannungen zwischen den benachbarten Bauwerksteilen zu vermeiden. Die Größe des Fugenspalts wird bei der Konstruktion der Brücke daher so gewählt, dass sich die Bauwerksteile im Laufe ihrer Nutzung möglichst nicht berühren. Der Fugenspalt kann daher relativ große Abmessungen haben und sich je nach Belastung der Brücke stark verändern.When closed, a joint gap is created between the movable bridge component and the fixed bridge component. This should have a defined size to compensate for relative movements between the building parts and so avoid contact and thus tensile, compressive or torsional stresses between the adjacent building parts. The size of the joint gap is therefore chosen in the construction of the bridge so that the building parts as possible during their use do not touch. The joint gap can therefore have relatively large dimensions and vary greatly depending on the load on the bridge.

Bei festen Brücken wird der Fugenspalt mittels einer Überbrückungsvorrichtung überbrückt. Diese sorgt dafür, dass auch große Fugenspalte sicher von den Benutzern der Brücke überquert werden können, dass also Personen nicht in den Fugenspalt stürzen oder Räder von Fahrzeugen sich nicht in den Spalt absenken. Insofern sichert eine solche Überbrückungsvorrichtung einen möglichst kontinuierlichen Übergang zwischen den Bauwerksteilen. Dies führt auch dazu, dass ein möglichst geräuscharmes Überfahren mit Fahrzeugen möglich ist Überbrückungsvorrichtungen für feste Brücken werden in der EP 355 009 A2 und EP 0 821 104 A2 beschrieben.For fixed bridges, the joint gap is bridged by means of a bridging device. This ensures that even large joint gaps can be safely crossed by the users of the bridge, so that people do not fall into the joint gap or wheels of vehicles do not lower into the gap. In this respect, such a bridging device ensures the most continuous possible transition between the building parts. This also means that as quiet as possible driving over with vehicles is possible bridging devices for fixed bridges are in the EP 355 009 A2 and EP 0 821 104 A2 described.

Demgegenüber wird bei bekannten beweglichen Brücken der Fugenspalt in der Regel einfach offen gelassen, also keine Überbrückungsvorrichtung im bzw. über dem Fugenspalt angeordnet. Grund hierfür ist, dass bewegliche Brücken selten vorkommen, teilweise kleinere Abmessungen aufweisen und oft nur mit geringen Geschwindigkeiten überfahren werden. Daher ist die Fugenspaltgröße meist ohnehin gering und die Lärmbelastung durch niedrigere Geschwindigkeit kleiner.In contrast, the joint gap is usually left open in known movable bridges usually, so no bridging device arranged in or over the joint gap. The reason for this is that moving bridges rarely occur, sometimes have smaller dimensions and are often run over at low speeds. Therefore, the joint gap size is usually low anyway and the noise pollution is lower due to the lower speed.

Alternativ zum Offenlassen des Fugenspalts werden manchmal auch als sogenannte Fingerfugen gestaltete Überbrückungsvorrichtungen eingesetzt. Diese weisen zwei kämmend angeordnete Fingerplatten auf. Dabei ist eine Fingerplatte am festen Bauwerksteil und die andere am beweglichen Bauteil befestigt. Letztere wird also mit dem beweglichen Brückenbauteil bewegt. Beim Schließen der Brücke kämmen die Finger dann derart ineinander, dass der Fugenspalt teilweise überbrückt wird.As an alternative to leaving the joint gap open, bridging devices designed as so-called finger joints are sometimes used. These have two finger plates arranged in a combing arrangement. In this case, a finger plate on the fixed structure part and the other is fixed to the movable component. The latter is thus moved with the movable bridge component. When closing the bridge, the fingers mesh with each other in such a way that the joint gap is partially bridged.

Sowohl beim Offenlassen des Fugenspalts, wie auch bei Verwendung von Fingerfugen, ist die maximal überbrückbare Spaltgröße begrenzt, damit Fahrzeuge nicht zu sehr in der Fuge einsinken bzw. weil die Finger der Fingerplatten nicht unbegrenzt lang ausgeführt werden könnenBoth when leaving open the joint gap, as well as when using finger joints, the maximum bridgeable gap size is limited, so that vehicles do not sink too much in the joint or because the fingers of the finger plates can not run indefinitely

Eine bekannte Übergangsvorrichtung für eine bewegliche Brücke, wobei die Brücke mit einer Positionervorrichtung ausgestattet ist, wird in der US 625 097 beschrieben.A known transition device for a movable bridge, wherein the bridge is equipped with a positioner device is in the US 625,097 described.

Vor diesem Hintergrund ist es Aufgabe der vorliegenden Erfindung eine Überbrückungsvorrichtung bereitzustellen, die es ermöglicht, sowohl kleinere wie auch größere Fugenspalte bei beweglichen Brücken überbrücken zu können.Against this background, it is an object of the present invention to provide a bridging device, which makes it possible to bridge both smaller and larger joint gaps in movable bridges can.

Die Lösung der Aufgabe gelingt mit einer Vorrichtung gemäß Anspruch 1 und einer beweglichen Brücke gemäß Anspruch 22. Vorteilhafte Weiterbildung der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben.The solution of the problem is achieved with a device according to claim 1 and a movable bridge according to claim 22. Advantageous development of the invention are described in the subclaims.

Die erfindungsgemäße Überbrückungsvorrichtung zeichnet sich demnach gegenüber dem Stand der Technik dadurch aus, dass sie eine Übergangskonstruktion mit wenigstens einem beweglichen Träger und wenigstens einer Positioniervorrichtung zur gezielten Positionierung des wenigsten einen beweglichen Trägers der Übergangskonstruktion nach einem Bewegen des beweglichen Brückenbauteils im Fugenspalt zwischen dem festen und dem beweglichen Brückenteil aufweist.The bridging device according to the invention is therefore distinguished from the prior art in that it comprises a transition structure with at least one movable support and at least one positioning device for selectively positioning the at least one movable support of the transition structure after moving the movable bridge member in the joint gap between the fixed and the having movable bridge part.

Unter der Übergangskonstruktion soll hierbei der Teil der Überbrückungsvorrichtung verstanden werden, der letztlich die Relativbewegung zwischen den Bauwerksteilen - bei geschlossener Brücke - ausgleicht. Die Überbrückungsvorrichtung bezeichnet hingegen die gesamte Einheit, mit Komponenten am festen wie auch beweglichen Brückenbauteil.In this case, the transitional construction is to be understood as the part of the bridging device which ultimately compensates for the relative movement between the structural parts, with the bridge closed. By contrast, the bridging device designates the entire unit, with components on the fixed as well as on the movable bridge component.

Unter dem beweglichen Träger der Übergangskonstruktion soll in diesem Fall jede Art von Träger verstanden werden, die sich relativ zur Übergangskonstruktion bewegen lässt. Der bewegliche Träger kann Teil der Übergangskonstruktion sein. Er kann aber auch zusätzlich an der Übergangskonstruktion angeordnet sein. Der bewegliche Träger kann dabei auch aus einer Vielzahl an Komponenten bestehen.In this case, the movable support of the transitional construction is to be understood as any type of support which can be moved relative to the transitional structure. The movable support may be part of the transition structure. But it can also be arranged in addition to the transition structure. The movable support can also consist of a variety of components.

Um den beweglichen Träger beim Schließen der Brücke in die gewünschte Position zu bringen weist die Überbrückungsvorrichtung eine Positioniervorrichtung auf. Unter der Positioniervorrichtung soll hierbei jegliche Art an Vorrichtung verstanden werden, die ein gezieltes Positionieren des beweglichen Trägers ermöglicht. Dies kann beispielsweise mechanisch, aber auch hydraulisch, oder elektrisch geschehen.In order to bring the movable support in the desired position when closing the bridge, the lock-up device has a positioning device. In this case, the positioning device is to be understood as meaning any type of device which enables a specific positioning of the movable carrier. This can be done, for example mechanically, but also hydraulically, or electrically.

Generell gesehen beruht der Lösungsansatz auf dem Gedanken, komplexe Übergangskonstruktionen, wie zum Beispiel Schwenktraversen-Übergangs-konstruktionen auch an beweglichen Brücken einzusetzen. Durch solche komplexen Übergangskonstruktionen wird es dann möglich, auch durch große Dehnungen und/oder Verkippungen entstandene Fugenspalte zu überbrücken. Auch bei Querdehnungen/Verschiebungen hat die erfindungsgemäße Lösung deutliche Vorteile gegenüber einer Fingerfuge. Damit eignet sich die Lösung auch sehr gut für große oder auch breite Brücken.Generally speaking, the approach is based on the idea of using complex transitional constructions, such as swiveling-transition constructions, also on movable bridges. Such complex transitional structures then make it possible to bridge joint gaps caused by large expansions and / or tilts. Even with transverse strains / displacements solution of the invention has significant advantages over a finger joint. Thus, the solution is also very well suited for large or wide bridges.

Zweckmäßigerweise weist die Positioniervorrichtung einen Zapfen auf. Unter einem Zapfen ist dabei jegliche Art von Bolzen oder Vorsprung zu verstehen, der durch seine Form sowie physischen Kontakt zu einem anderen Brückenbauteil die Positioniervorrichtung gezielt mechanisch ausrichten kann.Conveniently, the positioning device on a pin. Under a pin is to understand any kind of bolt or projection, which can target mechanically targeted by its shape and physical contact with another bridge component positioning.

Weiterhin ist es vorteilhaft, dass die Positioniervorrichtung wenigstens eine Führung für den Zapfen aufweist, die vorzugsweise trichterförmig ausgebildet ist. Eine solche mechanische Ausführung der Positioniervorrichtung ist kostengünstig herzustellen und widerstandsfähig gegen Ausfall und Verschmutzung. Vorzugsweise wird durch einen Eingriff des Zapfens in die Führung eine Horizontalkraft erzeugt, die letztlich für die Positionierung sorgt. Der Zapfen sowie die Führung können dabei beliebige Formen aufweisen und sollen nicht auf trichterförmige beziehungsweise runde Ausführungen beschränkt sein. Die trichterförmige Ausführung der Führung hat aber den Vorteil, dass eine Positionierung sowohl in Quer-, als auch in Längsrichtung auf einfache Weise erfolgen kann.Furthermore, it is advantageous that the positioning device has at least one guide for the pin, which is preferably funnel-shaped. Such a mechanical design of the positioning is inexpensive to manufacture and resistant to failure and contamination. Preferably, a horizontal force is generated by an engagement of the pin in the guide, which ultimately ensures the positioning. The pin and the guide can have any shapes and should not be limited to funnel-shaped or round designs. However, the funnel-shaped design of the guide has the advantage that positioning in both the transverse and in the longitudinal direction can be done in a simple manner.

Zweckmäßigerweise weist der Zapfen und/oder die Führung wenigstens ein reibungsminderndes Lagerelement, vorzugsweise eine Gleitplatte aus einem Gleitwerkstoff und/oder eine Rolle auf. Unter Lagerelement ist dabei jegliche Vorrichtung zu verstehen, die die Reibung zwischen Zapfen und Führung reduziert. Gleitplatten weisen gegenüber Rollen den Vorteil auf, dass sie auch höhere Lasten zwischen Zapfen und Führung übertragen können. Für die Gleitpaarung zwischen Zapfen und Führung kommt hierbei eine Vielzahl an Werkstoffpaarungen in Frage, wie beispielsweise Kunststoff-Kunststoff, Kunststoff-Metall, Metall-Metall, Keramik-Metall, etc.Conveniently, the pin and / or the guide at least one friction-reducing bearing element, preferably a sliding plate of a sliding material and / or a roller. Under bearing element is to be understood as any device that reduces the friction between pin and guide. Slide plates have the advantage over rollers that they can transfer higher loads between pin and guide. For the sliding mating between pins and guide here comes a variety of material pairings in question, such as plastic plastic, plastic-metal, metal-metal, ceramic-metal, etc.

Eine Ausführung der Lagerelemente mit Rolle erlaubt hingegen einen besonders verschleißarmen Kontakt von Zapfen und Führung. Die Rollen können dabei ihrerseits mit Kugellagern, Rollenlagern, Gleitlagern oder dergleichen gelagert sein.An embodiment of the bearing elements with roller, however, allows a particularly low-wear contact of pin and guide. The rollers can in turn be mounted with ball bearings, roller bearings, plain bearings or the like.

Weiterhin kann es vorteilhaft sein, dass die Positioniervorrichtung wenigstens eine Querzentrierung und/oder wenigstens eine Längszentrierung aufweist. Unter einer Querzentrierung ist dabei eine Vorrichtung zu verstehen, die den beweglichen Träger im Wesentlichen in Querrichtung bzgl. des Verlaufs der Brücke ausrichtet. Dies ist bspw. nötig, wenn sich das bewegliche Brückenbauteil durch den Vorgang des Öffnens und Schließens in Querrichtung verschiebt, bspw. bedingt durch Toleranzen in der Lagerung. Gleiches gilt auch für die Längszentrierung, nur dass hier Verschiebungen des beweglichen Trägers im Wesentlichen in Längsrichtung ausgeglichen werden, bspw. bedingt durch thermische Verformungen des beweglichen Brückenbauteils in Längsrichtung. Dabei können Querzentrierung und/oder Längszentrierung in einer Vorrichtung gebündelt sein, oder es können zwei gesonderte Vorrichtungen jeweils zur Querzentrierung und zur Längszentrierung vorliegen. Die Funktionsvereinigung von Querzentrierung und Längszentrierung kann z.B. durch einen zylinderförmigen Zapfen der in einen Trichter als Führung eingreift, realisiert werden. Diese Bündelung bietet den Vorteil der reduzierten Teilezahl und ist daher besonders ökonomisch. Eine Trennung von Querzentrierung und Längszentrierung erlaubt eine optimale Anpassung der Positioniervorrichtung an die jeweiligen Anforderungen, wie jeweilige Verschiebungen.Furthermore, it may be advantageous for the positioning device to have at least one transverse centering and / or at least one longitudinal centering. A transverse centering is to be understood as meaning a device which aligns the movable carrier essentially in the transverse direction with respect to the course of the bridge. This is, for example, necessary if the movable bridge component shifts in the transverse direction through the process of opening and closing, for example due to tolerances in the storage. The same applies to the longitudinal centering, except that displacements of the movable carrier are substantially compensated in the longitudinal direction, for example, due to thermal deformations of the movable bridge component in the longitudinal direction. In this case, transverse centering and / or longitudinal centering can be bundled in one device, or there can be two separate devices each for transverse centering and for longitudinal centering. The functional combination of transverse centering and longitudinal centering can e.g. by a cylindrical pin which engages in a funnel as a guide can be realized. This bundling offers the advantage of the reduced number of parts and is therefore particularly economical. A separation of Querzentrierung and longitudinal centering allows optimal adjustment of the positioning device to the respective requirements, such as respective shifts.

Es ist von Vorteil, wenn die Positioniervorrichtung so ausgelegt ist, dass ein definierter, insbesondere minimaler, Randspalt zwischen festem Brückenbauteil und Übergangskonstruktion erzeugt wird. Je kleiner der Randspalt bei der geschlossenen Brücke ausfällt, desto weniger wird die Fahrbahn unterbrochen. So werden beispielsweise Geräusche, die beim Überfahren des Randspalts entstehen, minimiert. Weiterhin wird durch einen minimalen Randspalt das Eindringen von Feuchtigkeit und Schmutz in die Überbrückungsvorrichtung reduziert.It is advantageous if the positioning device is designed so that a defined, in particular minimal, edge gap between the solid bridge component and transition structure is generated. The smaller the edge gap at the closed bridge fails, the less the road is interrupted. For example, noises that occur when driving over the edge gap are minimized. Furthermore, the penetration of moisture and dirt into the bridging device is reduced by a minimal edge gap.

Weiterhin kann es vorteilhaft sein, dass die Positioniervorrichtung wenigstens eine Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung aufweist. Unter einer Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung soll hierbei eine Vorrichtung verstanden werden, die Kräfte, insbesondere horizontale, und/oder Momente aufnimmt, die gegebenenfalls zwischen dem beweglichen Träger der Übergangskonstruktion, sowie dem festen Brückenbauteil auftreten. Die Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung besteht dabei bspw. aus mindestens einem am beweglichen Träger angeordneten Krafteinleitelement z.B. in Form einer Druckstrebe, die bei geschlossener Brücke mit mindestens einem am festen Brückenbauteil angebrachten Kraftaufnahmeelement in Berührung steht. So können bei geschlossener Brücke auftretende Horizontalkräfte vom beweglichen Träger oder von der Übergangskonstruktion in das feste Brückenbauteil eingeleitet werden, ohne die Positioniervorrichtung zu verformen. Insbesondere kann es auch zweckmäßig sein, die Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung mehrteilig auszubilden. So kann die Positioniervorrichtung in die Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung praktisch eingebettet werden.Furthermore, it may be advantageous that the positioning device has at least one force receiving device. A force receiving device is to be understood here as meaning a device which has forces, in particular horizontal, and / or moments receives, if necessary, between the movable support of the transition structure, as well as the fixed bridge component occur. The force receiving device consists, for example, of at least one arranged on the movable carrier force introduction element, for example in the form of a compression strut, which is in closed bridge with at least one attached to the fixed bridge component force receiving element in touch. Thus, with the bridge closed, horizontal forces can be introduced from the movable support or from the transitional construction into the fixed bridge component without deforming the positioning device. In particular, it may also be expedient to design the force receiving device in several parts. Thus, the positioning device can be practically embedded in the force receiving device.

Dabei kann es zweckmäßig sein, dass die Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung ihrerseits wenigstens ein Querkraftlager und/oder wenigstens ein Längskraftlager aufweist. Unter einem Querkraftlager ist dabei ein Lager zu verstehen, das insbesondere Kräfte und/oder Momente quer zur Ausdehnungsrichtung der Brücke aufnimmt. Solche Querkräfte können bspw. durch seitliche Windbelastungen entstehen. Gleiches gilt für das Längskraftlager, das bspw. Längskräfte aufnimmt, die bspw. durch ein Auffahren oder Abbremsen von Fahrzeugen auftreten. Durch eine funktionale Trennung von Quer- und Längskraftlager wird es möglich, sowohl das Querkraftlager, als auch das Längskraftlager bezüglich der jeweils auftretenden Kräfte optimal zu dimensionieren. Treten beispielsweise starke Querkräfte und nur geringe Längskräfte auf, ist es möglich ein entsprechend großes Querkraftlager bei einem nur sehr klein dimensionierten Längskraftlager zu verbauen. Eine Vereinigung von Querkraftlager und Längskraftlager erlaubt hingegen einen besonders ökonomischen Einsatz, da die Teilezahl der Überbrückungsvorrichtung reduziert wird.It may be expedient that the force receiving device in turn has at least one transverse force bearing and / or at least one longitudinal force bearing. Under a transverse load bearing is to be understood as a bearing that absorbs particular forces and / or moments transverse to the direction of extension of the bridge. Such lateral forces can arise, for example, by lateral wind loads. The same applies to the longitudinal force bearing, which absorbs, for example, longitudinal forces that occur, for example. By a collision or deceleration of vehicles. Through a functional separation of transverse and longitudinal bearings, it is possible to optimally dimension both the lateral force bearing, as well as the longitudinal force bearing with respect to the forces occurring in each case. If, for example, strong lateral forces and only low longitudinal forces occur, it is possible to install a correspondingly large transverse force bearing in a longitudinally very compact bearing. On the other hand, a combination of lateral and linear bearings allows a particularly economical use since the number of parts of the bridging device is reduced.

Dabei kann es zweckmäßig sein, dass insbesondere bei kleineren auftretenden Lagerkräften Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung und Positioniervorrichtung in einer Vorrichtung funktional vereinigt sind. Unter Funktionsvereinigung soll hierbei verstanden werden, dass die Positioniervorrichtung beispielsweise in der Lage ist, neben der gezielten Positionierung des beweglichen Trägers auch die an dieser Stelle auftretenden Lagerkräfte aufzunehmen, wenn die Brücke beispielsweise befahren wird. Eine solche Funktionsvereinigung ist beispielsweise durch entsprechend ausgelegte Zapfen, Lagerelemente oder Führungen zu erreichen. Die Kontaktfläche zwischen Zapfen und Führung wird somit zunächst zur gezielten Positionierung des beweglichen Trägers verwendet und ist anschließend auch in der Lage Lagerkräfte aufzunehmen. Denkbar sind z.B. Ringe am Zapfen.It may be expedient that, in particular for smaller bearing forces force receiving device and positioning device are functionally combined in a device. By functional association, it is to be understood here that the positioning device is, for example, capable of accommodating not only the targeted positioning of the movable carrier but also the bearing forces occurring at this point, when the bridge is being driven, for example. Such functional association can be achieved for example by appropriately designed pins, bearing elements or guides. The contact surface between pin and guide is thus initially used for targeted positioning of the movable support and is then also able to absorb bearing forces. Conceivably, e.g. Rings on the pin.

Weiterhin kann es vorteilhaft sein, dass insbesondere bei mittleren und großen auftretenden Lagerkräften Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung und Positioniervorrichtung in unterschiedlichen Vorrichtungen funktional getrennt ausgebildet sind. Dies ist so zu verstehen, dass die Komponenten, die während des Schließens der Brücke für die Positionierung zuständig sind, spätper keine Lagerkräfte mehr aufnehmen müssen. Vielmehr übernimmt eine speziell dafür eingesetzte und dimensionierte Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung die Aufnahme dieser Kräfte. Gerade bei mittleren und großen Lagerkräften kann dies zweckmäßig sein, da eine entsprechend große Dimensionierung des Zapfen, der Führung oder des Lagerelements nicht mehr möglich oder wirtschaftlich ist. In diesem Fall ist es wirtschaftlicher, die Funktion der Positionierung von der Funktion der Kraftübertragung zu trennen.Furthermore, it may be advantageous that, in particular in the case of medium and large bearing forces, the force-receiving device and the positioning device are functionally separated in different devices. This is to be understood that the Components that are responsible for positioning during the closing of the bridge, no longer have to absorb any bearing forces. Rather, a specially used and dimensioned force-absorbing device takes over the absorption of these forces. Especially with medium and large bearing forces, this may be expedient, since a correspondingly large dimensions of the pin, the guide or the bearing element is no longer possible or economical. In this case, it is more economical to separate the function of positioning from the function of power transmission.

Dabei kann es sinnvoll sein, dass die Überbrückungsvorrichtung wenigstens ein Mittel zur Erzeugung eines Abstandes zwischen Zapfen und Führung, wenn sich die Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung in Eingriff befindet, aufweist. Das Mittel kann zum Beispiel eine Hydraulik oder eine entsprechend geometrische Ausbildung der Kontaktfläche sein. Dadurch stehen Zapfen und Führung während geschlossener Brücke nicht in Kontakt. So wird sichergestellt, dass Lagerkräfte die den Zapfen überlasten - und dadurch verformen - könnten, durch die Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung aufgenommen werden.It may be useful that the lock-up device at least one means for generating a distance between the pin and guide when the force receiving device is in engagement, has. The means may be, for example, a hydraulic or a corresponding geometric configuration of the contact surface. As a result, pin and guide are not in contact while the bridge is closed. This ensures that bearing forces that overload the pins - and thereby deform - could be absorbed by the force receiving device.

Es kann zweckmäßig sein, dass die Übergangskonstruktion eine Schwenktraversen-Übergangskonstruktion ist. Unter einer Schwenktraversen-Übergangs-konstruktion ist eine Vorrichtung zu verstehen, bei der mehrere quer zur Fahrtrichtung laufende Lamellen auf wenigstens einer verschwenkbaren Schwenktraverse zueinander drehbeweglich gelagert sind. Eine Schwenktraversen-Übergangskonstruktion ist daher besonders geeignet für große und komplexe Bewegungen sowie für die Verwendung in erdbebengefährdeten Bauwerken.It may be appropriate for the transition structure to be a swivel cross-over construction. Under a swivel cross-transition construction is a device to understand in which a plurality of transversely to the direction of travel running slats are rotatably mounted to each other on at least one pivotable swivel traverse. A pivoting transom construction is therefore particularly suitable for large and complex movements as well as for use in earthquake-prone buildings.

Ferner ist es vorteilhaft, dass wenigstens ein beweglicher Träger der Überbrückungsvorrichtung eine Schwenktraverse der Schwenktraversen-Übergangskonstruktion ist. In diesem Fall wird somit direkt die Schwenktraverse durch die Positioniervorrichtung in Position gebracht.Furthermore, it is advantageous that at least one movable carrier of the bridging device is a pivoting crosspiece of the swivel cross-member construction. In this case, thus directly the swivel traverse is brought by the positioning in position.

Weiter kann es vorteilhaft sein, dass die Übergangskonstruktion eine Mittelträger-Übergangskonstruktion ist. Bei der Mittelträger-Übergangskonstruktion sind die - auch als Mittelträger bezeichneten - Lamellen nicht auf Schwenktraversen, sondern auf nur längsverschieblichen, meist parallel und längs zur Fahrtrichtung angeordneten, Traversen angeordnet. Der Abstand der Lamellen kann hier so gesteuert werden, dass die Lamellen im Sinne einer Kette durch Aufeinanderschieben der Lamellen zusammengefahren, oder durch Zugkräfte aufnehmende Fugenbänder, die die Lamellen miteinander verbinden, nacheinander aufgezogen werden. Diese Konstruktion garantiert eine hohe Lebensdauer und Wartungsfreiheit, wodurch sie besonders wirtschaftlich ist.Furthermore, it may be advantageous for the transition structure to be a mid-beam transition construction. In the center-carrier transition construction, the lamellae, also referred to as center girders, are not arranged on pivoting traverses, but rather on traverses which are only longitudinally displaceable, usually arranged in parallel and longitudinally to the direction of travel. The distance of the slats can be controlled here so that the slats together in the sense of a chain moved together by pushing the slats, or by pulling forces receiving joint tapes that connect the slats together, are pulled one after the other. This construction guarantees a long service life and freedom from maintenance, which makes it particularly economical.

Es kann vorteilhaft sein, dass wenigstens ein beweglicher Träger als Randträger, Traverse und/oder Mittelträger der Übergangskonstruktion ausgebildet ist. Die Positioniervorrichtung wird folglich direkt an diesen Bauteilen angeordnet, was zusätzliche Bauteile überflüssig macht.It can be advantageous that at least one movable support is designed as edge support, cross member and / or center support of the transition structure. The positioning device is therefore arranged directly on these components, which makes additional components unnecessary.

Weiterhin kann es zweckmäßig sein, dass wenigstens ein beweglicher Träger als Hebeträger für die Übergangskonstruktion ausgebildet ist. Unter Hebeträger soll ein Träger verstanden werden, der zusätzlich zur Übergangskonstruktion angeordnet ist und sie zumindest teilweise trägt, wenn diese nicht mit dem festen Brückenbauteil verbunden ist. Gerade wenn große und schwere Übergangskonstruktionen wie Schwenktraversen verwendet werden, kann ein solcher Hebeträger nötig werden. Da die Schwenktraversen bisher nicht für bewegliche Brücken verwendet werden, sind die Traversen eigentlich nicht dafür dimensioniert die Last der Übergangskonstruktion aufzunehmen, wenn diese auf einer Seite nicht gelagert ist. Es bietet sich daher die Möglichkeit entweder die bereits bestehenden Träger, wie Schwenktraverse oder normale Traverse, in der Dimensionierung und Lagerung entsprechend anzupassen, oder einen gesonderten Hebeträger einzusetzen. Je nach Lastfall entscheidet sich dabei, welche der beiden Lösungen die wirtschaftlichere ist.Furthermore, it may be expedient that at least one movable carrier is designed as a lifting carrier for the transitional construction. A lifting carrier is to be understood as meaning a carrier which is arranged in addition to the transitional construction and at least partially supports it if this is not connected to the fixed bridge component. Especially when large and heavy transitional structures such as swiveling trays are used, such a lifting carrier may be necessary. Since the swivel traverses are not yet used for movable bridges, the trusses are not actually dimensioned to take the load of the transitional construction, if this is not stored on one side. It therefore offers the possibility of either the existing carrier, such as swivel traverse or normal traverse, in the dimensioning and storage to adapt accordingly, or to use a separate lifting carrier. Depending on the load case, it is decided which of the two solutions is more economical.

Es kann vorteilhaft sein, dass für wenigstens einen beweglichen Träger ein Trägerlager am beweglichen Brückenbauteil vorgesehen ist, in dem der entsprechende bewegliche Träger geführt ist. Das Trägerlager kann bzgl. seiner Freiheitsgrade an die Übergangskonstruktion angepasst sein. Das heißt, dass der bewegliche Träger nur in Richtungen bewegt werden kann, die die Übergangskonstruktion erlaubt. Bewegungen in andere Richtungen erlaubt das Trägerlager nicht, um so eine Beschädigung der Übergangskonstruktion zu verhindern.It may be advantageous for at least one movable support to provide a support bearing on the movable bridge component, in which the corresponding movable support is guided. The support bearing can be adapted with respect to its degrees of freedom to the transition structure. That is, the movable support can only be moved in directions that allow the transition structure. Movements in other directions do not allow the carrier bearing so as to prevent damage to the transitional structure.

Sinnvollerweise ist die Überbrückungsvorrichtung wasserdicht ausgeführt. Dies z.B. indem Fugenbänder zwischen den Lamellen verwendet werden. Dadurch wird verhindert, dass Regenwasser oder im Winter Salzwasser zwischen die Brückenbauteile eindringt und von der Brücke unkontrolliert nach unten abläuft. Dabei kann es zweckmäßig sein, dass mindestens eine Regenabführung im Randspalt und/oder in der Führung angeordnet ist. Selbst wenn der Randspalt kleinstmöglich ausgeführt ist, kann es dennoch vorkommen, dass eine minimale Menge Oberflächenwasser in diesen Spalt eindringt. Dieses eindringende Oberflächenwasser kann durch eine Regenabführung, wie beispielweise eine Regenrinne unterhalb des Randspalts gezielt abgeleitet werden. Auch die Führung der Positioniervorrichtung kann bei geöffneter Brücke mit Feuchtigkeit in Kontakt kommen. So kann beispielsweise Regen in den Trichter der Führung eindringen. Auch hier kann daher eine Regenabführung angebracht sein.It makes sense that the lock-up device is waterproof. This e.g. by using waterstops between the lamellas. This prevents rainwater or in winter salt water from penetrating between the bridge components and running down from the bridge in an uncontrolled manner. It may be expedient that at least one rain discharge is arranged in the edge gap and / or in the guide. Even if the marginal gap is made as small as possible, it may happen that a minimum amount of surface water penetrates into this gap. This penetrating surface water can be derived by a rain drain, such as a gutter below the edge gap targeted. The guidance of the positioning device can come into contact with moisture when the bridge is open. For example, rain may enter the funnel of the guide. Again, therefore, a rain drainage may be appropriate.

Es kann vorteilhaft sein, dass die Übergangskonstruktion am festen Brückenbauteil angeordnet ist. Beispielsweise wenn die bewegliche Brücke eine Klappbrücke ist. So muss die Übergangskonstruktion nicht mit dem beweglichen Brückenbauteil bewegt werden. Speziell bei Klappbrücken wird dadurch ein vollständiges Ineinanderfahren vermieden, welches zu Lärmbelastung führen würde. Außerdem wird bei einer derart starken Auslenkung der Übergangskonstruktion die spätere Positionierung schwieriger. Weiterhin würde das Gewicht des beweglichen Brückenteils ansteigen, was unvorteilhaft für die Lager und die Antriebe ist.It may be advantageous that the transition structure is arranged on the fixed bridge component. For example, if the movable bridge is a bascule bridge. So must the Transitional structure can not be moved with the movable bridge component. Especially in the case of hinged bridges, this avoids complete meshing, which would lead to noise pollution. In addition, with such a strong deflection of the transition structure, the later positioning becomes more difficult. Furthermore, the weight of the movable bridge part would increase, which is unfavorable for the bearings and the drives.

Auf der anderen Seite kann es aber auch zweckmäßig sein, dass die Übergangskonstruktion am beweglichen Brückenbauteil angeordnet ist. Dies zum Beispiel, wenn am festen Bauteil wenig Platz zum Einbau der Übergangskonstruktion ist. Gerade wenn es sich um eine Hebebrücke oder Drehbrücke handelt, bei der der bewegliche Teil nur in einer Ebene bewegt wird, ist ein Verschieben der Übergangskonstruktion durch die Bewegung nicht zu erwarten.On the other hand, it may also be expedient that the transition structure is arranged on the movable bridge component. This is the case, for example, if there is little space on the fixed component for installing the transition structure. Especially when it comes to a lifting bridge or swing bridge, in which the movable part is moved only in one plane, a displacement of the transition structure by the movement is not expected.

Wie bereits oben erwähnt, erstreckt sich die Erfindung nicht nur auf die Überbrückungsvorrichtung als solche, sondern auch auf eine mit einer erfindungsgemäßen Überbrückungsvorrichtung ausgerüstete bewegliche Brücke. Dabei kommen jegliche Arten an beweglichen Brücken in Betracht, wie z.B. Drehbrücken, Schwenkbrücken, Hubbrücken und dergleichen.As already mentioned above, the invention extends not only to the lock-up device as such, but also to a movable bridge equipped with a lock-up device according to the invention. Any types of movable bridges are contemplated such as e.g. Swing bridges, swivel bridges, lifting bridges and the like.

Fig. 1 zeigt eine schematische Darstellung einer erfindungsgemäßen Hubbrücke 5 mit zwei festen Brückenbauteilen 3 und einem dazwischenliegenden beweglichen Brückenbauteil 4, das angehoben und abgesenkt werden kann. Im angehobenen Zustand wird dabei die lichte Höhe unter dem beweglichen Brückenbauteil 4 erhöht, z.B. um eine größere Durchfahrtshöhe zu ermöglichen. Im abgesenkten Zustand wird hingegen das Passieren der Brücke über das bewegliche Brückenbauteil 4 ermöglicht. Im abgesenkten Zustand des beweglichen Brückenbauteils 4 bestehen Fugenspalte 2 jeweils zwischen beweglichen Brückenbauteil 4 und festem Brückenbauteil 3. Diese Fugenspalte 2 werden jeweils durch eine erfindungsgemäße Überbrückungsvorrichtung 1 überbrückt, die aber in Fig. 1 aufgrund des Maßstabs nicht erkennbar sind. Fig. 1 shows a schematic representation of a lifting bridge according to the invention 5 with two fixed bridge components 3 and an intermediate movable bridge member 4, which can be raised and lowered. In the raised state while the clear height is increased under the movable bridge component 4, for example, to allow a greater clearance height. In the lowered state, however, the passage of the bridge over the movable bridge member 4 is made possible. In the lowered state of the movable bridge component 4 there are joint gaps 2 between movable bridge component 4 and fixed bridge component 3. These joint gaps 2 are each bridged by a bridging device 1 according to the invention, but which in FIG Fig. 1 due to the scale are not recognizable.

Fig. 2 zeigt einen Schnitt durch eine erste Ausführungsform einer solchen erfindungsgemäßen Überbrückungsvorrichtung 1. In der Schnittdarstellung wird das bewegliche Brückenbauteil 4 gerade heruntergefahren. Die Überbrückungsvorrichtung 1 weist dabei eine Übergangskonstruktion 6, einen beweglichen Träger 7 und eine Positioniervorrichtung 8 auf. Fig. 2 shows a section through a first embodiment of such a bridging device according to the invention 1. In the sectional view, the movable bridge member 4 is just shut down. The bridging device 1 has a transitional construction 6, a movable support 7 and a positioning device 8.

Um das Eigengewicht der Übergangskonstruktion 6 zumindest im Zustand des Hochfahrens und Herunterfahrens aufzunehmen, ist unterhalb der Übergangskonstruktion 6 mindestens ein Hebeträger 20 angebracht. Der Hebeträger 20 ist auf einer ersten Seite am beweglichen Brückenbauteil 4 gelagert. An einer zweiten Seite des Hebeträgers 20 ist neben der Positioniervorrichtung 8, ein Randträger 18 der Übergangskonstruktion 6, sowie ein Hohlkasten 21 angebracht. Hebeträger 20, Positioniervorrichtung 8, Randträger 18 und Hohlkasten 21 bilden eine funktionale Einheit, die bei geschlossener Brücke einen gezielten Anschluss der Übergangskonstruktion 6 auf Seiten des festen Brückenbauteils 3 herstellen. In diesem Ausführungsbeispiel ist unter dem beweglichen Träger 7, der von der Positioniervorrichtung 8 gezielt positioniert wird, somit eine Einheit aus zumindest Hebeträger 20, Randträger 18 und Hohlkasten 21 zu verstehen.To accommodate the weight of the transition structure 6 at least in the state of startup and shutdown, at least one lifting carrier 20 is mounted below the transition structure 6. The lifting carrier 20 is mounted on a first side on the movable bridge component 4. On a second side of the lifting beam 20, an edge support 18 of the transition structure 6, and a hollow box 21 is mounted next to the positioning device 8. Lifting carrier 20, positioning device 8, edge support 18 and hollow box 21 form a functional unit, which produce a targeted connection of the transition structure 6 on the side of the fixed bridge component 3 with the bridge closed. In this exemplary embodiment, a unit comprising at least lifting carrier 20, edge carrier 18 and hollow box 21 is thus to be understood as being under the movable carrier 7, which is specifically positioned by the positioning device 8.

Dabei bleibt im heruntergefahrenen Zustand des beweglichen Brückenbauteils 4 ein Randspalt 22 (in Fig. 2 nicht dargestellt) zwischen Hohlkasten 21 und festem Brückenbauteil 3 bestehen. Dieser Randspalt 22 sollte dabei so klein wie möglich ausfallen, um das Eindringen von Schmutz und Flüssigkeit zu verhindern und einen möglichst gleichmäßigen Fahrbahnübergang zu gewährleisten. Für den möglichst kleinen Randspalt 22 ist letztlich die Positioniervorrichtung 8 verantwortlich. Die Positioniervorrichtung 8 weist auf Seiten des beweglichen Brückenbauteils 4 einen Zapfen 9 auf. Auf Seiten des festen Brückenbauteils 3 weist die Positioniervorrichtung 8 eine Führung 10 auf, die in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel trichterförmig ausgeführt ist.In this case, remains in the shut down state of the movable bridge component 4, an edge gap 22 (in Fig. 2 not shown) between hollow box 21 and fixed bridge component 3. This edge gap 22 should be as small as possible to prevent the ingress of dirt and liquid and to ensure the smoothest possible road junction. For the smallest possible marginal gap 22, the positioning device 8 is ultimately responsible. The positioning device 8 has a pin 9 on the side of the movable bridge component 4. On the side of the fixed bridge component 3, the positioning device 8 on a guide 10, which is funnel-shaped in this embodiment.

Zwischen Zapfen 9 und Führung 10 ist ein Lagerelement 11 angeordnet, das vorliegend am Zapfen 9 angebracht ist. Im ersten Ausführungsbeispiel weist das Lagerelement 11 Gleitplatten 12 aus Kunststoff auf. Beim Herabsenken des beweglichen Brückenbauteils 4 greift der Zapfen 9 in die trichterförmige Führung 10 ein und wird dadurch gezielt positioniert. Dadurch wird letztlich ein minimaler Randspalt 22 zwischen Hohlkasten 21 und festen Brückenbauteil 3 ermöglicht.Between pin 9 and guide 10, a bearing element 11 is arranged, which is presently attached to the pin 9. In the first embodiment, the bearing element 11 sliding plates 12 made of plastic. When lowering the movable bridge member 4, the pin 9 engages in the funnel-shaped guide 10 and is thereby selectively positioned. As a result, a minimal edge gap 22 between hollow box 21 and fixed bridge component 3 is ultimately made possible.

Ferner weist die Überbrückungsvorrichtung 1 eine Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung 14 auf. Die Kraftaufnahmevorrichtung 14 besteht vorliegend aus zwei am Zapfen 9 fluchtend angeordneten Krafteinleitelementen 14a und zwei Kraftaufnahmeelementen 14b. Deren Anordnung erlaubt einerseits ein Absenken und Anheben des beweglichen Brückenbauteils 4 in vertikaler Richtung, andererseits können jedoch Kräfte und Momente, die bei geschlossener Brücke entstehen, aufgenommen werden, so dass es nicht zu einer Beschädigung etwa am Randträger (18) oder am Zapfen (9) kommt. Die Kräfte und Momente können beispielsweise durch das Befahren der Brücke mit Fahrzeugen oder durch thermische Ausdehnungen der Brückenbauteile entstehen.Furthermore, the bridging device 1 has a force receiving device 14. In the present case, the force receiving device 14 consists of two force introduction elements 14a which are aligned on the pin 9 and two force absorption elements 14b. Their arrangement allows on the one hand a lowering and lifting of the movable bridge member 4 in the vertical direction, on the other hand, however, forces and moments that arise when the bridge is closed, are recorded so that it does not damage about the edge support (18) or on the pin (9 ) comes. The forces and moments can arise, for example, by driving on the bridge with vehicles or by thermal expansion of the bridge components.

Die Übergangskonstruktion 6 sorgt für einen gleichmäßigen Fahrbahnübergang. Um die Kraft darüberfahrender Fahrzeuge aufnehmen zu können, weist die Übergangskonstruktion 6 mehrere Lamellen 28 auf, die quer zur Fahrtrichtung angeordnet sind. Zwischen den Lamellen 28 der Übergangskonstruktion 6 sind Dichtungen angebracht (in Figur 2 nicht dargestellt) die das Eindringen von Feuchtigkeit verhindern. Flüssigkeiten, die bei geöffneter Brücke in die Führung 10 eindringen, werden durch eine Regenabführung 23b abgeleitet. Außerdem verhindert eine Regenabführung 23a unterhalb des Randspalts 22, dass Feuchtigkeit, die durch den Randspalt 22 eindringt, von unten in die Überbrückungsvorrichtung 1 gelangen kann.The transition structure 6 ensures a uniform roadway transition. In order to absorb the power of vehicles driving over, the transition structure 6 has a plurality of fins 28, which are arranged transversely to the direction of travel. Between the fins 28 of the transition structure 6 seals are mounted (in FIG. 2 not shown) which prevent the ingress of moisture. Liquids that penetrate into the guide 10 when the bridge is open are discharged through a rain outlet 23b. In addition, a rain discharge 23a below the edge gap 22 prevents moisture which penetrates through the edge gap 22 from getting into the bridging device 1 from below.

Fig. 3 zeigt eine zweite Ausführungsform der Überbrückungsvorrichtung 1. Diese entspricht im Wesentlichen der ersten Ausführungsform und unterscheidet sich vor allem hinsichtlich der eingesetzten Positioniervorrichtung 8. Während im ersten Ausführungsbeispiel Gleitplatten 12 verwendet wurden, werden in diesem Fall Rollen 13 verwendet. Diese sind besonders für kleinere Brücken gut geeignet, die kleinere und leichtere Übergangskonstruktionen 6 aufweisen. Diese kleineren Übergangskonstruktionen 6 benötigen geringere Kräfte für die Positionierung. Die Rollen 13 gewährleisten dabei ein leichtgängiges Ineinanderlaufen von Zapfen 9 in die Führung 10. Bei mittleren und großen Auflagekräften sind solche Rollen 13 jedoch weniger geeignet, da sie nicht genügend große Kräfte übertragen können. Durch das Zusammenspiel der Formgebung von Zapfen 9 inklusive Rolle 13, Führung 10, Krafteinleitelement 14a und Kraftaufnahmeelement 14b wird dabei erreicht, dass in der abgesenkten Endposition des beweglichen Brückenbauteils 4 kein Kontakt zwischen Führung 10 und Rolle 13 besteht, sondern das obere Ende des Zapfens am Krafteinleitelement praktisch anliegt. So wird erreicht, dass im geschlossenen Zustand der Brücke keine Kräfte und Momente auf das äußere Ende der Positioniervorrichtung 8 wirken, die zu einer ungewünschten Verformung des Zapfens führen könnten. Fig. 3 shows a second embodiment of the lock-up device 1. This essentially corresponds to the first embodiment and differs mainly with respect to the positioning device used 8. While in the first embodiment, sliding plates 12 were used, in this case rollers 13 are used. These are particularly well suited for smaller bridges having smaller and lighter transition structures 6. These smaller transitional constructions 6 require lower forces for positioning. The rollers 13 ensure a smooth running into each other of pins 9 in the guide 10. In medium and large contact forces such rollers 13 are less suitable, since they can not transmit large enough forces. Through the interaction of the shape of pin 9 including roller 13, guide 10, force input element 14a and force receiving element 14b is achieved that in the lowered end position of the movable bridge member 4 no contact between leadership 10 and roller 13, but the upper end of the pin practically abuts the Krafteinleitelement. This ensures that in the closed state of the bridge no forces and moments act on the outer end of the positioning device 8, which could lead to an undesired deformation of the pin.

Fig. 4 zeigt eine Draufsicht auf einen Teil einer erfindungsgemäßen Überbrückungsvorrichtung 1 gemäß einer dritten Ausführungsform. Dabei ist von oben das feste Brückenbauteil 3, der Randspalt 22, der Hohlkasten 21, eine als Schwenktraversen-Übergangskonstruktion 106 ausgebildete Übergangskonstruktion 6, sowie das bewegliche Brückenbauteil 4 zu sehen. Die unter den Lamellen 28 liegenden Schwenktraversen 16, sowie die Hebeträger 20 sind gestrichelt dargestellt. Die Schwenktraversen 16 sind leicht schräg zur Fahrtrichtung angeordnet und mit den Lamellen 28 drehbar verbunden. Durch diese Anordnung wird ein gleichmäßiges Auseinander- und Zusammenfahren aller Lamellen 28 sichergestellt. Die Hebeträger 20 sind beweglich am beweglichen Brückenbauteil 4 befestigt. Sie erlauben einerseits eine Bewegung der Schwenktraversen-Übergangskonstruktion 106 im Umfang der für sie vorgesehenen Freiheitsgrade. Andererseits nehmen die Hebeträgern 20 beim Hochfahren der Brücke das Gewicht der Schwenktraversen-Übergangskonstruktion 106 samt Hohlkasten 21 auf. Dadurch wird eine entsprechende Führung sichergestellt und eine Überlastung der Traversen 19 verhindert. Fig. 4 shows a plan view of a part of a bridging device 1 according to the invention according to a third embodiment. In this case, the fixed bridge component 3, the edge gap 22, the hollow box 21, a transition structure 6 designed as a pivoting traverse transition structure 106, and the movable bridge component 4 can be seen from above. The lying under the blades 28 pivoting traverses 16, and the lifting beams 20 are shown in dashed lines. The pivoting traverses 16 are arranged slightly obliquely to the direction of travel and rotatably connected to the blades 28. By this arrangement, a uniform divergence and collapse of all slats 28 is ensured. The lifting beams 20 are movably mounted on the movable bridge member 4. On the one hand, they permit a movement of the pivoting-traverse transition structure 106 in the scope of the degrees of freedom intended for it. On the other hand, take the lifting beams 20 when starting up the bridge, the weight of the swivel cross-transition structure 106 together with hollow box 21. As a result, a corresponding guide is ensured and prevents overloading of the trusses 19.

Fig. 5 zeigt einen Schnitt durch die Überbrückungsvorrichtung 1 gemäß Fig. 4 entlang der Linie A-A. Hier werden die verschiedenen Komponenten der Überbrückungsvorrichtung deutlich, die einerseits für die Positionierung beim Absenken des beweglichen Brückenbauteils sorgen und andererseits die Horizontal-Kräfte aufnehmen. Die Überbrückungsvorrichtung 1 weist dabei eine Positioniervorrichtung 8 auf. Die Positioniervorrichtung 8 wird durch einen Zapfen 9 und eine am festen Brückenbauteil 3 angebrachte Führung 10 gebildet. Als Lagerelemente 11 werden Gleitplatten verwendet. Dadurch ist es möglich, dass die Positioniervorrichtung 8 gleichzeitig als Querkraftlager 26 dient. Sie nimmt somit im abgesenkten Zustand auch Kräfte auf, die quer zur Fahrtrichtung zwischen Hohlkasten 21 und festem Brückenbauteil 3 auftreten. Fig. 5 shows a section through the lock-up device 1 according to Fig. 4 along the line AA. Here, the various components of the lock-up device become clear, on the one hand provide the positioning when lowering the movable bridge component and on the other hand absorb the horizontal forces. The bridging device 1 in this case has a positioning device 8. The positioning device 8 is formed by a pin 9 and a guide 10 attached to the fixed bridge component 3. As bearing elements 11 slide plates are used. This makes it possible that the positioning device 8 serves as a lateral force bearing 26 at the same time. It thus assumes in the lowered state and forces that occur transversely to the direction of travel between hollow box 21 and fixed bridge component 3.

Da in diesem Ausführungsbeispiel die auftretenden Längskräfte deutlich höher sein können als die Querkräfte, ist sind hier drei gesondertes Längskraftlager 27 angebracht, die aufgrund der Schnittdarstellung jedoch nicht alle zu sehen sind. Die Trennung von Positioniervorrichtung 8 und Längskraftlager 27 erlaubt dabei eine optimale Dimensionierung der jeweiligen Komponenten.Since in this embodiment, the longitudinal forces occurring can be significantly higher than the shear forces, three separate longitudinal force bearing 27 are here attached, which are not all visible due to the sectional view. The separation of positioning device 8 and longitudinal force bearing 27 allows optimal dimensioning of the respective components.

Desweiteren ist eine gesonderte Vorrichtung zur Längszentrierung 25 angebracht. Die Funktionstrennung von Querzentrierung und Längszentrierung erlaubt ebenfalls eine optimale Anpassung an die Gegebenheiten (bspw. das zu überbrückende Spalt-Maß). So können beispielsweise größere Längsverschiebungen als Querverschiebungen gezielt positioniert werden. Um das Gewicht der Übergangskonstruktion 6 und des Hohlkastens 21 aufzunehmen, wenn die Brücke geöffnet wird bzw. ist, werden auch in diesem Fall Hebeträger 20 eingesetzt.Furthermore, a separate device for longitudinal centering 25 is attached. The functional separation of transverse centering and longitudinal centering also allows optimal Adaptation to the conditions (eg the gap to be bridged). For example, larger longitudinal displacements can be selectively positioned as transverse displacements. In order to accommodate the weight of the transitional structure 6 and the hollow box 21 when the bridge is opened, lifting beams 20 are also used in this case.
