Definitions

  • the invention in the first place relates to a device for inserting fibres into sod-covered ground, each sod comprising a layer of earth and a layer of grass on top thereof, the device being according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Such a device is known from publication EP-A-1 387 817 .
  • Known devices are not different from devices that are used for inserting fibres directly into the ground, i.e. without sods present thereon.
  • the natural grass lawn is reinforced.
  • hybrid grass or fibre-reinforced grass is used.
  • Sods are typically used for sports fields if little time is available for installing a natural grass lawn, as can for example be the case with sports field in stadiums that are used for important sports competitions.
  • a possible option in the case of pressure of time is to inject the fibres into the natural grass and the ground relatively shortly after the sods have been laid on the ground.
  • the sods have not yet grown together much with the ground via the roots of the grass of the sods.
  • This entails the risk that upon injection of the fibres, when the fibres are inserted into the sods and the ground by pins, more specifically during the retracting movement of the pins, the sods are moved up along with the pins and come loose from the ground.
  • This has an adverse effect on the quality of the hybrid grass, for example because parts of the fibres can be folded flat between the ground and the sods.
  • the sods are weighted by spraying water thereon and/or by spreading earth thereover. In the former case, the sods become spongy, which has an adverse effect on the flatness of the hybrid grass.
  • the device comprises the features defined in claim 1.
  • the retaining element thus prevents, in a very reliable manner, the sods from moving up along with the fibre insertion pins without there being a need to weight the sods with water or earth.
  • the use of the second moving means makes it possible to ensure that the retaining element will be free from contact with the sods while the device moves over the ground, as is necessary when fibres are to be inserted into the ground in an entire field or at least a larger area, so that the sods cannot be damaged by the retaining element.
  • the second moving means are configured to move the retaining element up and down between the operative position and the non-operative position for every up-and-down movement of the fibre insertion pins, and/or that the second moving means are configured to keep the retaining element in the non-operative position while the device moves over the ground.
  • the second moving means are configured to keep the retaining element in the operative position at least during the last part of the movement of the fibre insertion pins from the high position to the low position as effected by the first moving means.
  • the device comprises sensor means for measuring the distance in the vertical direction between the layer of earth and the frame, wherein the device further comprises control means configured for determining the low operative position of the retaining element on the basis of the measurements by the sensor means.
  • the second moving means are configured to have the retaining element press on the layer of earth in the operative position.
  • the at least one retaining element preferably comprises passages through which, in use, the first moving means move the fibre insertion pins during the up-and-down movement of the fibre insertion pins between the high position and the low position.
  • the passages in question can also serve as guides for the fibre insertion pins.
  • the passages are provided in an elevated part of the retaining element, the direct surroundings of the location where the fibre insertion pins are inserted into the layer of earth by means of the retaining element need not be retained in place.
  • the at least one retaining element further comprises passages in front of and behind the positions where, in use, the fibres are inserted into the sods and the ground. This makes it possible to reduce the mass of the retaining element, whilst in addition the further passages provide space for the sod grass and any fibres that have already been inserted into the sods and the ground to extend therethrough.
  • the invention can in particular be used effectively if the at least one retaining element is configured to be operative within a distance of at most 50 cm, preferably at most 35, seen in the direction of movement, and/or if the at least one retaining element has a symmetrical configuration in relation to the fibre insertion pins.
  • the present invention further relates to a method for inserting fibres into sod-covered ground, each sod comprising a layer of earth and layer of grass on top thereof.
  • the method according to the invention comprises the repetitive steps defined in claim 12.
  • FIGs 1a-1e schematically show a ground surface 1 for a hybrid lawn to be installed thereon, on which sods 2 have been laid.
  • Each sod has a layer of earth 2a and a layer of grass 2b on top thereof (see also figures 2, 3 4).
  • the term "layer of grass 2b" is understood to mean the layer on top of the layer of earth 2a, within which extends the grass whose roots extend into the layer of earth 2a.
  • a vehicle equipped with a device configured for injecting fibres as mentioned before is used. In use, the vehicle moves in a direction of movement from the bottom left to the top right in figure 3 .
  • the figures only those parts of the device that are relevant to the present invention are shown. A detailed description of all the parts of the injection device is unnecessary in this case, because such devices are already known to the skilled person, for example from Dutch publication NL 1014978 .
  • Figure 1a shows a fibre 3 made to length, which extends horizontally, directly below a pin 4.
  • the pin which forms part of a row of pins (see also figure 3 , can be moved vertically up and down relative to the frame of the vehicle by moving means (not shown) between a high position as shown in figure 1a and a low position as shown in figures 1c-1e .
  • the pin first moves against the fibre 3, midway the length thereof, and subsequently through a guide 5 with a reduced passage, so that the fibre 3 is folded double, as it were, about the point of the pin 4.
  • the guide for itself is also movable between a high position ( figures 1a and 1e ) and a low position ( figures 1b-1d ).
  • the pin 4 During its downward movement, the pin 4 first penetrates the sod 2 ( figure 1b ) and subsequently the ground ( figure 1c ), for example to a depth of 20 cm. The pin 4 is then moved back up to the high position ( figures 1d and 1e ) by the moving means. During this retracting movement the fibre 3 remains behind in the ground. The length of the fibre and the stroke length of the pins 4 are such that once the pins 4 have been retracted, the two free ends of the fibres 3 extend above the layer of earth 2a, but still below the tops of the grass in the layer of grass 2b.
  • the injection device comprises a retaining element 7.
  • This retaining element can be moved between a high, non-operative position ( figures 1a and 1e ) and a low, operative position ( figures 1b-1d ) by moving means (not shown).
  • the retaining element 7 is profile-shaped and is for example made of steel or plastic material.
  • the retaining element 7 has a symmetrical configuration in relation to the pins 4 and comprises two contact surfaces 8a, 8b, which are connected via a central, elevated bridge portion 9. On the outer sides of the contact surfaces 8a, 8b, the retaining element further comprises inclined surfaces 10a, 10b and upright edges 11a, 11b.
  • the distance between the longitudinal edges facing away from each other of the two contact surfaces 8a, 8b, or in other words, between the edges where the contact surfaces 8a, 8b and the inclined surfaces 10a, 10b join one another, is about 22 cm. This distance determines the width (seen in the direction of movement) of the area are within which the retaining element 7 is operative, as will become apparent hereinafter.
  • the length of the area in question is determined by the length of the row of pins 4.
  • a passage 12 is provided for each pin 4, the diameter of which passage is so small that the passages 12 can perform a guiding function for the associated pins 4, for example in the case that a pin strikes a hard object in the ground 1.
  • Significantly larger passages 13 are furthermore provided in the contact surfaces 8a, 8b.
  • the retaining element 7 functions as follows: During the downward movement of the pins 4, the retaining element 7 also moves from the high, non-operative position to the low, operative position ( figure 1b ). Ideally, the low, operative position is such that the retaining element, more specifically the contact surfaces 8a, 8b thereof, are positioned a short distance, for example 1 mm, above the layer of earth 2a. Because the thickness of the layer of earth 2a can vary, it is also possible within the scope of the invention to make use of a sensor, for example a mechanical tactile sensor or an optical sensor, which determines the vertical distance between the frame and the layer of earth.
  • a sensor for example a mechanical tactile sensor or an optical sensor, which determines the vertical distance between the frame and the layer of earth.
  • Control means may in that case be configured to control the moving means for the retaining element such that the low, operative position is determined on the basis of the measurement by the sensor.
  • a low, operative position of the retaining element a small distance, for example 1 or 2 mm, below the theoretically ideal operative position.
  • the retaining element will thus apply a certain pressure to the layer of earth in the operative position thereof.
  • the grass in the layer of grass 2b as well as the fibres that already extend from the layer of earth 2a into the layer of grass 2b are flattened to a certain degree, except at the positions of the passages 13. This is clearly shown in figures 2 and 3 .
  • Another advantage of the passages 13 is that they reduce the weight of the retaining element 7, which is in any case advantageous from the viewpoint of mass inertia effects.
