Definitions

  • the invention relates to a trench for storage and seepage or retention or filtering of surface water, having a trench body.
  • a known trench has at least one trench body that is disposed in the ground.
  • An incoming water line leads to the trench body, so that the trench body can take up surface water that is passed to it.
  • the trench body is, characterized in that it can store the water within its body, and can give it off to the ground that surrounds the trench body, and/or can conduct it away into the sewer system or into a receiving water course.
  • Trench bodies are known from the state of the art, which are composed of a plurality of system elements made of injection-molded plastic. Each system element is configured in block shape, for example; it has outer wall sections and inner braces. Such a system element is known, for example, from DE 20 2004 018 319.6. The system elements are disposed on top of and next to one another, as individual elements, and thereby form a trench body as a whole. Because of the lattice structures within each system element, the trench body cannot be walked through and inspected after it has been completed, since it is not possible to penetrate into the interior of the trench body.
  • the invention is based on the task of indicating a trench of the type stated initially, which can be universally used and can be transported over longer distances more inexpensively.
  • the trench body is composed of multiple support elements, which are connected with one another by means of additional elements.
  • no pre-finished injection-molded system elements are used to form a trench body.
  • support elements are used, from which the trench body is formed.
  • the trench body is assembled from multiple support elements. Other elements are used in this assembly process, so that in total, a trench body can be formed. Assembly of the trench body from different elements takes place, but not by means of laying system elements that have the same construction on top of or next to one another.
  • each support element can be a frame element that is composed of multiple profiles connected with one another, whereby the frame elements are preferably connected with one another by means of profiles.
  • the profiles form the additional elements with which the support elements, which are configured as frame elements, are connected.
  • Each frame element is assembled from profiles that are connected with one another.
  • the frame elements are thus formed from profiles, within a plane; they can therefore be transported lying flat on top of one another or standing closely next to one another, on the loading surface of a truck. It is not a finished trench body that is transported, also not already finished system elements of the trench body; rather, only components of the trench body that are compacted in the transport state are transported.
  • the frame elements are connected with one another by means of additional profiles. In this way, an overall modular architecture is obtained, whereby the distance between frame elements that are adjacent to one another can vary.
  • the number of profiles within a frame element, for absorbing the forces that occur, can also be freely selected.
  • Each profile of the frame elements is preferably configured in the shape of a bar.
  • the profile cross-section in terms of width and height can vary, so that the forces that occur can be reliably absorbed.
  • the profiles are preferably fitted out with an angular contour, which can lie against sections of the frame elements with its angles.
  • the profiles are configured as L profiles; they can lie against corners of the frame elements with the angle of the L.
  • each support element is a wall element.
  • Wall elements can be set up at a distance from one another, so that spaces can be formed between them. Then, no frame-like configurations are used, but there are enough spaces to accommodate the water as the result of the distances between the individual wall elements.
  • the profiles of the frame elements and the profiles as additional elements have a distance from one another, in each instance, that is 1 meter, for example.
  • the trench has at least one cover element that is laid against a section of the trench body.
  • the cover element bridges the distance between profiles that are adjacent to one another.
  • it is configured as a lattice panel or support panel, so that the cover element is water-permeable.
  • the individual perforations of the panel can be covered with a geotextile material that is laid onto the panel.
  • a water-impermeable surface element can also be laid onto the cover element, for example in order to keep water that flows out of the trench body away from specific regions.
  • the water-impermeable surface element can be a sealing strip.
  • supportive meshes, plastic profile panels, or a concrete cover can also be put into place.
  • a line section is disposed in the interior of the trench body.
  • This line section can take up fluid that is introduced, or can distribute it over different regions of the trench body.
  • a sediment segment or substrate filter segment can be formed within a line section, in order to use the water that flows through the line section for cleaning of the trench.
  • the line section can be a pipe that is closed over about 270°, whose opening is oriented in the direction of the trench ceiling. The line section can serve for cleaning and distribution of the water into the trench body, also for camera inspection and flushing, as well as for an inspection possibility that allows walk-in access.
  • a filter substrate can be introduced, in replaceable manner, in the region of the trench floor, also outside of the line section. If the vertically disposed profiles of the frame elements have a length of two meters, for example, then there is a corresponding clear height within the trench body. The trench body can then be entered and inspected. A filter substrate introduced in the region of the trench floor can be replaced, and sedimentation deposits can be removed, in order to restore function at full seepage power.
  • a filter shaft can be set onto the trench body, to which shaft incoming water lines can be connected.
  • the trench body has a mechanical strength sufficient to carry the filter shaft.
  • the filter shaft can serve as an inspection shaft for access to the interior of the trench body.
  • the profiles and the profiles as additional elements are preferably produced from plastic. This it not thermoplastic plastic such as that used for an injection-molded product as an individual element of a trench body, for example, but rather a duroplastic, fiber-reinforced plastic having significantly greater strength. Alternatively, a corrosion-resistant metal material can be used.
  • wall elements are used as support elements, then these wall elements can be produced from a concrete material. Concrete is able to absorb the required forces, and further can be produced inexpensively. The wall elements can be produced from finished concrete parts, so that the costs are minimized, in the form of mass production.
