Technical sector of the invention

The invention, object of the present invention, relates to the sector of modular building constructions. In particular, it is a new modular system for the construction of foundations for supports of overhead lines and / or support poles in general.

State of the art

The techniques and systems for the construction of foundations for supports of overhead lines and / or support poles used up to now can be traced back to a single system that involves the complete construction on site through different phases, such as the construction of an excavation for the foundation, carried out by hand or by mechanical means; the positioning of the disposable tube; the hand-made cast of ds; the installation of the pole with the aid of mechanical means.

The work thus created has critical aspects, such as the non-centering of the disposable pipe with respect to the sides of the foundation block; failure to respect the distance between the base of the excavation and the base of the disposable pipe with consequent lower driving depth of the pile in the ground; the difficult quality control of the cement, used for the casting of the foundation, prepared on site or purchased from a storage facility and transported to the construction site; the possibility of displacement of the disposable pipe due to the concrete casting; the difficulty of squaring the walls

of the block; the possibility of defects in the upper surface of the outcropping blocks linked to the creation of slopes that do not allow the removal of rainwater.

These problems, in different fields of application, are partially treated and resolved patent applications n ° US6178714 and n ° US2004000114.

Application No. US6178714 deals with a system for the construction of a removable mod 9 »structure consisting of a foundation of poured and leveled concrete, with regularly spaced holes to house and block vertical rods and / or columns; a set of blocks of standardized size each of which has one or more vertical holes for locking; a set of columns and rods for locking that when a column of one or more blocks is positioned constitutes the blocking element for the assembly of subsequent blocks to form a wall that does not require concrete and is easy to disassemble.

Application No. US2004000114 deals with a modular system for building blocks consisting of a semi-finished object that is equipped with a series of steps. Semi-finished objects can be made of plastic and filled with concrete or steel reinforcing bars to form footings, foundations, beams, walls and roofs.

However, neither the state of the art currently in use nor the above patent applications overcome the critical aspects mentioned.

Presentation of the invention

The invention, which relates to a modular system for the construction of foundations for supports of overhead lines and / or support poles in general, has the aim of overcoming the difficulties and disadvantages present in the solutions currently in use.

In particular, the new system aims to give the foundations construction process characteristics of efficiency and effectiveness, making it less linked to uncontrolled variations in the installation phases that are sources of the aforementioned critical aspects.

The invention in question consists of prefabricated modules of three types (A, B, C), with different geometric characteristics, which can be composed in different configurations such as to satisfy the requirements necessary for the construction of the foundation according to the type of pole to be & Page 3 of II

insert, from steel, wood, concrete or other material bars, necessary, during the installation phase, to center the blocks themselves, and from a special cementitious mortar based on epoxy resins (such as Kimia or similar) which allows to restore the monolithicity of the block itself.

The use of this type of mortar also makes it possible to effectively resist

cutting mechanics which are the ones that stress the system the most during

exercise.

The constructive characteristics of the aforementioned modules are described below:

• module type A: prefabricated element with parallelepiped shape used as a support base for modules type B and C, equipped with seats or holes prepared on the corners for housing the bars necessary for centering the layers of the finished block and grooves equipped with sockets useful for handling the module;

• module type B: prefabricated element with a parallelepiped shape used in the higher layers of the type A module and used in a number of units sufficient to reach the depth of the foundation required according to the type of pole to be installed; i equipped with seats or holes prepared on the corners for housing the bars necessary for centering the layers of the finished block, recesses equipped with sockets useful for handling the module, a central hole for housing the pole and grooves for passage of earth cables;

• module type C: prefabricated element with a parallelepiped shape used at the head of the block if the block is of the outcropping type; it is equipped with seats or holes prepared on the corners for housing the bars necessary for centering the layers of the finished block, recesses equipped with sockets useful for handling the module, a central hole for housing the pole and a slope of the surface suitable to allow the runoff of rainwater; • steel, wood, concrete or other material bars: elements with a circular, square, rectangular or similar section to be placed in each of the angular holes present on the modules of type A, B and C in order to allow the centering of all the component layers the block;

• cementitious mortar based on epoxy resins or similar: material to be interposed between the modules

of type A, B and C in order to allow the fixing of all the layers making up the block

(solidarity of the modules) and restore the monolithic nature of the block itself, which allows

effectively resist the mechanical shear forces which are the ones they stress

more the system during the operating phase.

The main feature of the invention is represented by its modularity which, the composition of prefabricated elements, improves and simplifies the installation of the

compared to the traditional casting technique of the foundation on site, allowing to realize

foundation blocks with high technical-quality characteristics and eliminating problems

and the critical aspects arising from the use of the traditional technique.

We describe the advantages that the invention adds to the current state of the art:

1. Complete modularity of the invention which allows, using a sufficient number of units of the

prefabricated modules, reaching the required foundation depth in operation

the type of pole to be installed.

2. High technical and qualitative characteristics of the foundation block created.

3. High resistance to mechanical shear forces thanks to the use of special mortars

cementitious.

4. Ease of installation which allows the centering of the pole and the perfect realization of the

slopes designed to remove rainwater.

S. Checking the driving depth of the support pole.

6. Scientific control of the quality of the cement used for the realization of the modules in

what is carried out directly in the concrete production plants;

7. Disappearance of the problems related to the curing of the cement, in fact so that the concrete can

to be considered mature it is necessary that 28 days pass from casting; therefore all the stresses

suffered by the foundation block before this time can lead to disaggregations

of the casting components;

8. Disappearance of the waiting time for the casting to harden:

9. Absence of the phenomenon of segregation of aggregates:

10. Absence of problems related to the places of execution of the works as the quality of a

foundation block built in an inaccessible place is equal to that built in the plain;

11. Reduced themes of the work.

The advantages described above will become clearer from the description of the

contained in the attached drawings.

the centering of the modules and the cementitious mortar based on epoxy resins or similar (R) to be interposed between the modules, allowing them to be fixed and giving the block monolithicity.

Figure 3 shows a 3D view, a longitudinal and a transversal section of the type B module characterized, in addition to the holes (E) and the sockets (F) with similar functions

to those described in figure 2, by a central hole (G) for the insertion of the pole and by grooves (H) for the passage of the ground cables.

The invention, well understood, is not limited to the representation given by the tables but can receive improvements and modifications by the man of the trade without leaving the framework of the patent.

The present invention allows to have numerous advantages and to overcome difficulties that cannot be overcome with the systems currently on the market.
