Definitions
- the invention relates to a sealing profile for embedding in a molded part made of curable material, in particular a concrete or plastic molded part, as well as a molded part and a sealing arrangement with the sealing profile.
- Shafts and tunnels are usually composed of individual monolithic prefabricated components (e.g. segments), between which there are contact joints that are sealed with suitable seals in order, for example, to prevent the penetration of the surrounding medium (e.g. water).
- the production of such prefabricated components is usually carried out with the aid of formwork forms such as are known, for example, from DE 4218710 CI, DE 102007 032236 A1 or DE 19841047 CI.
- a hardenable material e.g. concrete, is poured into the formwork, which is opened and removed after the material has hardened.
- Seals for sealing the contact joints can subsequently be arranged in circumferential grooves provided for this purpose in the abutment sides of the cured molded part.
- An example of such a seal is described in DE 2833345 A1.
- seals that are required to seal the joints that are created later when assembling the prefabricated components to form a shaft or tunnel are integrated into the prefabricated components during casting by pouring them in and anchoring them.
- Such seals are also known as integrated seals or anchored seals.
- integrated seals which are intended for embedding in prefabricated components made of hardenable material, such as pipes, segments, manhole rings and the like, are usually provided at their base with so-called anchoring feet, which are enclosed by the hardenable material during casting of the prefabricated component and should serve to hold the seal reliably in the cured prefabricated component.
- seals are regularly equipped with projections or the like, with the help of which they can be arranged in a correspondingly designed holder of a formwork and held during the casting process that the seal with its anchoring feet in Direction of the inside of the formwork mold and can be embedded in the hardenable material.
- a formwork system and an integrated seal are described, for example, in WO 01/53657 A1 and EP 1003955 B1.
- Integrated seals are also known from DE 3934198 A1 and GB 2541978 A.
- US 2019/0226202 A1 describes an integrated seal equipped with anchoring elements protruding laterally from the seal body, which, for example, in the event of damage, can be removed from the concrete body and exchanged for a new seal.
- the hardenable material e.g. concrete
- the hardenable material repeatedly flakes off, especially when installing or assembling the prefabricated parts.
- the object of the present invention is to reduce the risk of spalling when installing or assembling prefabricated parts with integrated sealing profiles.
- the invention provides a sealing profile for embedding in a molded part made of curable material, in particular a concrete or plastic molded part, wherein the sealing profile has a profile body, with a) a profile base to be embedded in the molded part, which after embedding the sealing profile to the molded part has facing profile base surface and lateral profile base flanks, and b) a profile back protruding from the profile base, which has a profile back surface opposite the profile base surface and lateral profile back flanks, and wherein the sealing profile has at least one anchoring foot protruding from the profile base surface, and the profile base flanks with curves or chamfers in the Skip the profile base.
- the spalling observed in practice which occurs in particular at corners of segments in the area with an integrated seal, can be effectively prevented or at least reduced by using a sealing profile according to the invention.
- the flanks of the profile base which is also embedded in the molded part, for example concrete segment, go into the with roundings or chamfers Profile base surface over.
- the sealing profile has rounded or chamfered corners or edges in the area of the profile base.
- the at least one anchoring foot is located within the profile base surface and thus outside the area of the curves and is thus offset from the edge area of the profile base surface in the direction of the profile interior compared to the sealing profiles customary to date, such as are known from WO 01/53657 A1, for example .
- the curves or chamfers and the inwardly offset at least one anchoring foot achieve a better distribution of forces and avoid a weakening of the molded part material, e.g. the concrete.
- a “molded part made of curable material” is understood here to mean a component that is produced by means of a mold which at least essentially defines the later shape of the molded part, into which a curable material is poured and cured passively or actively.
- the molded part can be a tunnel segment, for example.
- Tubbing means prefabricated components of the outer shell of tunnels, shafts, pipes, etc. It can be, for example, ring segment or ring-shaped components, e.g. made of concrete.
- curable material is understood here to mean a material that is initially flowable, but later, under normal conditions, by itself or under external influence, e.g. from heat, UV light, etc., curing material. It can be, for example, concrete, synthetic resin, glue and the like. For example, it can also be a fiber-containing synthetic resin that hardens to form a fiber-reinforced plastic, for example GRP.
- a “sealing profile” is understood here to mean a preferably strand-shaped, optionally frame-like or ring-shaped closed, elastomer profile with a sealing function, for example a segment seal, concrete or plastic pipe seal or manhole seal.
- An "elastomer profile” is a sealing profile made of elastomer material.

- FPM fluororubber
- EPDM, SBR, CR or NBR are preferred, EPDM particularly preferred, the elastomeric material, for example, having a Shore hardness of 60-80 (type D according to DIN EN ISO 868).
- the term also includes profiles made of thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) or profiles made of mixtures of elastomers, for example those mentioned above.
- a sealing profile can also consist of different elastomer materials in certain areas. For example, the back part of a tubbing profile, ie the profile area with which the profile is inserted into a formwork form, can consist of a different, for example harder, elastomer material than the base of the profile, or vice versa. Profiles that have areas made of different elastomeric materials can be produced, for example, by coextrusion.
- integrated seal is understood here to mean a sealing profile that is intended for embedding in a molded part made of curable material and is designed accordingly, e.g. equipped with at least one anchoring foot or other devices for embedding the sealing profile in the curable material.
- an “anchoring foot” is understood here to mean a profile extension that protrudes into the later molded part and causes a force fit or preferably a form fit between the profile and the molded part, so that the profile is attached to or in the cured molded part in such a way that it can be used without damaging the Molded part and / or the profile (for example, by tearing off the profile extension) can not be removed or only with difficulty.
- the profile extensions can be designed, for example, dovetail-like, generally with a cross-section that increases towards the extension end or with other anchoring geometries.
- increasing cross section refers to the fact that a profile extension has a larger cross section towards the free end, ie the end remote from the profile, that is to say expands or thickens in its extent.
- strand-shaped in relation to a sealing profile means that the sealing profile forms an elongated, essentially linear profile strand.
- An example of sealing profiles that are regularly designed in the form of strands are segment seals, which are arranged in grooves along the end faces of segments.
- the ends of strand-like sealing profiles can optionally be joined together to form a frame or ring, it also being possible to use corner elements between linearly formed sections which can be configured differently than the rest of the sealing frame.
- the profile base flanks with curves or chamfers merge into the profile base surface refers here to a curved, curved or in cross-section polygonal course of the profile base flanks to the profile base surface and to a central profile axis perpendicular to the profile base surface, so that the profile base is in the transition area in which the profile flanks merge into the profile base surface with curves or chamfers, tapers in cross section towards the profile base surface, or, in other words, a profile base with rounded or chamfered corners or edges is formed.
- the roundings describe an arc of curvature, for example an arc of a circle or an arc of curvature composed of an arc of a circle and a transition arc.
- bevel or “bevel” here includes multiple bevels, ie transitions that run polygonally in cross section.
- the curves or chamfers are understood here as part of the profile base flanks.
- the expression “rounded or chamfered”, “rounded or chamfered” or “with curves or chamfers” can also be used for the expression “with curves or chamfers”, whereby the terms “chamfer”, “chamfer” or “chamfered” each have one Include multiple bevelling, ie a polygonal cross-section of the transition area.
- profile base flanks merge with curves or chamfers into the profile base surface also includes mixed forms, ie alternating rounded and chamfered sections in a transition area of a profile base flank or beveled transitions on one side of the profile and rounded transitions on the other side of the profile Profile. Transition areas that change, for example regularly alternating, with regard to rounding or chamfering are also included in the longitudinal direction of a strip-shaped profile.
- profile body is understood to mean the body of a sealing profile to which projections, lips or anchoring feet can be attached if necessary. Profile bodies, projections, lips and anchoring feet are preferably designed in one piece with one another.
- a one-piece sealing profile including the profile body and anchoring foot and, if necessary, projections, lips and the like, can be produced from an elastomeric material by means of extrusion. It is also possible, however, for areas made of different materials to be present within an integral sealing profile, for example elastomeric materials of different hardness for the profile base and the profile back. Such sealing profiles can be produced, for example, by means of coextrusion.
- profile base is understood here to mean that part of the sealing profile which, after it has been anchored, faces the molded part and is embedded in the molded part, i.e. is surrounded or framed by hardened material.
- profile base surface is understood here to mean the area of the outer surface of the profile base between the curves that faces the molded part in the installation situation.
- the profile base surface can, for example, have a planar design.
- profile back here refers to the part of the sealing profile that remains free after it has been embedded in the molded part and is not surrounded or framed by hardened material.
- the “profile back surface” means the outer surface of the profile back which is essentially opposite the profile base surface of the sealing profile and which provides the sealing surface in the finished molded part which, for example, in the case of tubbing for tunnel construction, rests against the profile back surface of a sealing profile in an adjacent molded part.
- profile flank here refers to the lateral areas of the sealing profile between the profile base surface and the profile back surface.
- profile base flank refers to the flanks of the profile base, the term “profile back flank” the flanks of the profile back.
- “above” or “below” they refer to the orientation of the sealing profile with the profile back facing “up”, ie away from the molded part, and with the profile base facing “down”, ie towards the molded part. “Above” means offset towards the profile back surface, “below” means offset towards the profile base surface.
- the profile base flanks run parallel to one another in the direction of the profile base surface or run towards one another in the direction of the profile base surface before they merge into the curves or chamfers at a first transition point.
- the profile base flanks preferably run towards one another in this upper area of the profile base, i.e. area of the profile base facing the profile back, in the direction of the profile base surface, preferably in a straight line.
- the profile base tapers conically in cross section in the direction of the profile base surface, so that the profile base tapers in the direction of the profile base surface. This makes it easier to enclose the profile base when pouring the molded part without creating voids.
- the angle ß between the course of the profile base flank in the cross section of the sealing profile before its transition into the rounding or chamfer, ie in the direction of the profile base surface before the first transition point, and a perpendicular standing on the profile base surface can be, for example, 3-20 °, 5-20 °, 5 -15 °, 5-10 ° or 5-9 °.
- the corners or edges of the profile base are preferably rounded or chamfered in such a way that they do not protrude laterally from the profile body.
- the corners or edges of the profile base should not have any anchoring function in the sealing profile according to the invention.
- the corners also preferably do not protrude in the vertical direction beyond the profile base surface in the direction of the molded part.
- the curves or chamfers therefore preferably run in the cross section of the sealing profile from a first transition point in a curved (for curves) or polygonal (for chamfers) line to a central profile axis perpendicular to the profile base and merge into the profile base surface at a second transition point.
- the curves or chamfers preferably do not protrude laterally from the profile body.
- the direction of the curve or the curve describing the rounding changes Polygonal line encompassing chamfers therefore always only towards the central profile axis.
- the profile flank surfaces above the curves and the profile base surface in cross-sectional view preferably run in the direction tangential to the respective ends of the circular arc. In the cross-section, the profile flank surface above the roundings is therefore tangential to the first transition point and the profile base surface is tangential to the second transition point.
- Roundings can also be made up of a circular arc and one or two transition arcs when viewed in cross section, for example a transition curve from a transition point on the profile base flank to the circular arc and a further transition curve to the transition point on the preferably planar profile base surface.
- transition curves can be used as transition arcs.
- the curvature of the curves extends over a maximum of 90 °, preferably less than 90 °.
- the arc of curvature preferably extends over at least 30 °, at least 35 °, 40 °, 45 °, 50 °, 55 ° or at least 60 °.
- the formulation, according to which the curve of curvature of the roundings extends over x ° means, for example, that the angle between the radii of a circle of curvature (osculating circle) leading to the ends of the curve of curvature on the curve of curvature is x °.
- the curves can run in cross section, for example at least in sections, in the shape of a circular arc.
- Other geometries are basically also conceivable.
- the radii of roundings running in the shape of a circular arc can, for example, be between 2 and 12 mm, preferably 2-8 mm, 3-6 mm, 3-5 or 3-4 mm.
- an arc of curvature viewed in the cross section of the profile, can also be composed of a circular arc section and one or more transition arcs.
- chamfer it is preferred to provide as many chamfers as possible, ie as many steps of the chamfer as possible with corresponding changes in direction, in order to achieve a smooth transition into the To obtain profile base surface.
- the ratio of the length of the arc of curvature of the roundings which can be composed, for example, of a circular arc and one or two transition arcs, to the length of the profile base surface or the ratio of the total length of the chamfer to the length of the profile base surface in cross section 1 : 5 to 1: 8, preferably 1: 5.5 to 1: 7.5 or 1: 6 to 1: 7.3.
- the information relates to the ratio of the length of the arch of curvature of one of the roundings or the length of the chamfer, i.e. the polygon course describing the chamfer in cross section, on one side of the profile, seen in cross section, to the total length of the profile base surface, also seen in cross section.
- the sealing profile has two or more, preferably two, spaced anchoring feet projecting from the profile base surface, the anchoring feet being spaced in the direction of the profile body, ie in the direction of the central profile axis, from the transition points of the curves or chamfers in the profile base surface .
- the anchoring feet extending from the profile base surface in the direction transversely to the profile base surface are in this preferred embodiment spaced from the rounded or chamfered corners, ie offset inwards towards the central profile axis.
- This embodiment according to the invention in which the anchoring feet are displaced further inward towards the profile center compared to profiles from the prior art, can be used particularly advantageously to prevent flaking caused by weakening the hardenable material, e.g. concrete, in the area of the anchoring feet become.

- FIG. 2 shows part of an embodiment of a sealing profile 1 according to the invention (see also FIG. 3).
- the sealing profile 1 according to the invention is embedded in a molded part 50 made of a curable material.
- the molded part 50 is here a concrete segment for tunnel construction, and the sealing profile 1 is correspondingly a segment seal made of an elastomeric material, for example EPDM, which is integrated in an end face of the segment.
- the sealing profile 1 can be produced, for example, by extrusion.
- the strand-shaped sealing profile 1 extends in the longitudinal direction 12. Only a section of the sealing profile 1 is shown, which is cut at the front.
- the sealing profile 1 has a profile body 2, generally hexagonal in cross section, with a profile base 3 and a profile back 4 protruding from the profile base 3 has a profile base surface 5 facing the molded part 50, the profile back 4 has a profile back surface 6 opposite the profile base surface 5 and running essentially parallel to the profile base surface 5.
- the profile back surface 6 forms the sealing surface in a sealing arrangement in which, for example, two molded parts 50 with their faces embedded therein Sealing profiles 1 rest against one another with the profile back surfaces 6.
- the sealing profile 1 has cavities running in the longitudinal direction 12 as longitudinal channels 13, which here are arranged one above the other in three planes.
- the sealing profile has lateral profile base flanks 7 and profile back flanks 8.
- protrusions 15 protrude laterally in the area of the profile back 4, with which the sealing profile 1 can be held during the casting of the molded part 50 with the profile back 4 in a correspondingly complementary holder of a formwork mold.
- Sealing lips 14 extending laterally from the profile body 2 on the plane 20 (see Fig. 3) of the transition between the profile base 3 and the profile back 4 are provided to prevent the penetration of hardenable material into the holder of the formwork during the casting process of the molded part 50.
- the plane 20 also indicates the level below which the sealing profile 1 is or will be embedded in the molded part.
- the sealing profile 1 is anchored here in the molded part 50 with two anchoring feet 9 that expand in cross section in the direction away from the profile base surface 5.
- the sealing profile 1 is axially symmetrical in cross section to a central profile axis 11 which is perpendicular to the profile base surface 5 and to the longitudinal axis of the sealing profile 1 running in the longitudinal direction 12 (see FIG. 3).
- the anchoring feet for their part, are each axially symmetrical to an axis 19 that is offset parallel to the central profile axis 11.
- the profile base 3 of the sealing profile 1 has rounded corners, ie the profile base flanks 7 merge with the profile base surface 5 with roundings 10.
- FIG. 3 which shows a cross section through the embodiment of a sealing profile 1 according to the invention shown in FIG Essentially straight line in each case towards a lateral first transition point 16 on the profile base flank that is closer to the central profile axis 11. In this linear region, they form an angle ⁇ with respect to a perpendicular on the profile base surface 5, which can be, for example, 5-10 °.
- the curves 10 run, in the cross section of the sealing profile, from the first transition point 16 in a curved line towards the central profile axis 11, which is perpendicular to the profile base surface 5, and merge into the profile base surface 5 at a second transition point 17.
- each of the points of the arc of curvature describing the rounding in the cross section is closer to the central profile axis 11.
- the roundings 10 therefore do not protrude laterally or in the direction of the central profile axis 11 with respect to the profile body 2.
- the roundings 10 merge at the second transition point 17 into the profile base surface 5, which, apart from the area with the anchoring feet 9, extends in a straight line in cross section.
- the length of the arc of curvature of the rounding 10 lying between the transition points 16, 17 is preferably in relation to the length B of the profile base surface 5, viewed in cross section in each case, that a sufficiently large rounding 10 results.
- the curves 10 are in the shape of a circular arc and the curvature of the curves 10 extends here over an angle ⁇ of approximately 80 °.
- a suitable circular arc radius r can be, for example, 4 mm.
- the ratio of the length of the circular arc to the length B of the profile base surface is here approximately 1: 7.2.
- other configurations are also possible depending on the intended use.
- the anchoring feet 9 are offset inwardly, ie in the direction of the central profile axis 11, compared to the sealing profile 101 from the prior art shown in FIG. They are each located at a distance from the second transition points 17, with which the curves 10 of the sealing profile 1 according to the invention merge into the profile base surface 5, in the direction of the central profile axis 11.
- the anchoring feet 9 in this embodiment originate from an area of the profile base surface 5, above which a solid web 18 made of elastomeric material and extending between hollow longitudinal channels perpendicularly through the profile base 3 is formed.
- the rounded corners and the inwardly offset anchoring feet 9 are particularly advantageous in order to avoid or reduce the flaking observed in sealing profiles 101 from the prior art.
- a sealing profile 1 is shown here by way of example, which in this illustration has a bevel 21 made of two individual chamfers in cross section on the left and a bevel 21 made of three individual chamfers in cross section on the right.
- the transition point 16 on the profile base flank 7 is connected to the transition point 17 on the profile base surface 5 in cross section by a polygon of two linear lines, in the bevel shown on the right the transition points 16 are , 17 connected by a polygon consisting of three linear sections.
- the sealing profile 1 has different configurations of the corners, for example a different number of chamfers or a chamfer on one side and a rounding on the other side. However, it is preferred if both sides (viewed in cross section) are designed symmetrically to one another.
