Definitions
- the present invention relates to a method of estab ⁇ lishing light bridges or platforms that are carried by metal pipes mounted in the ground or in the beach bot ⁇ tom.
- Relatively thin pipes are easier to mount in the ground than the thicker wooden posts which have been used traditionally, regardless of the mounting being effected by ramming or flushing, and with a good mount ⁇ ing depth of e.g. 1.5 - 3 m an excellent side stability is achievable.
- the pipe poles may be utilized in a simple and standardized manner, i.e. with the use of standard components, for the further mounting of associated bridge elements. When suitably corrosion protected, e.g. in case of galvanized iron pipes, these poles may also exhibit a comparatively long lifetime.
- a flushing spear is used for easing the pole down into the ground, pressurized water being sent out through the lower end of the spear.
- the spear which is usable for flushing down both pipe poles and wooden poles, is moved into the ground together with the pole,only with the spear point located slightly beneath the lower end of the pole, such that the material underneath the pole end is currently flushed away so as to condition a parti ⁇ cularly easy and rapid working down of the pole.
- this type of mounting can be ef ⁇ fected in a still simpler manner, namely in making use of the pipe poles themselves as permanent or remaining flushing spears.
- the pressure of the current of flushing water is not required to be particularly high, so it is very easy to arrange for the coupling on and off of a pump hose at the top of the single pipe poles.
- the placing of the 'spear end' will auto ⁇ matically be correct, and the flushing down of the pole, therefore, can easily be effected by a single operator, even without the operator being particularly skilled.
- the poles may be taken up by utilizing their upper connector ends for connection with a hose supplied with compressed air, as it is then possible to take up the otherwise rigidly mounted poles with a minimum of labour and equipment, such that the bridge may be taken in for the winter and reestablished by spring in a rather easy manner.
- the bridge may be taken in for the winter and reestablished by spring in a rather easy manner.
- both the mounting and the dismounting of the poles can be done by a single person it will be advantageous, according to the invention, when also the remaining mounting or dismounting of the bridge can be effected by a single person in a simple manner, viz. with the use of an auxiliary crane that is mountable on the front end of the already erected bridge portion for reception of a prefabricated bridge element; the latter may then be be used as a working platform for the work ⁇ ing down of further poles and then be secured to these poles, respectively for the taking up of the poles and a successive dismounting of the bridge.
- Fig. 1 is a schematic view illustrating the working down of pipe poles by flushing
- Fig. 2 a)-e) are lateral views of different designs of the lower end of the poles
- Figs. 3-6 illustrate the successive erection of a bridge with the use of an auxiliary crane
- Figs. 7-9 illustrate different pole founded con ⁇ structions.
- Fig. 1 illustrates a sea bottom, in which a tubular pole 2 is flushed down by means of an upper connection hose 4 to a water pump (not shown) , which may well be a centrifugal pump, as the required pressure is not par ⁇ ticularly high.
- a water pump not shown
- the bottom material will pack around the pole, which will then be able to stand in a stable manner when the depth of the flushing down is reasonably large; with the use of pipes of a diameter of 2-3 inches the depth should of course somewhat larger than in case of thick wooden poles, typically of the magnitude 1-3 m.
- pipe poles can be used, which, as shown in Figs. 2d and 2e, have a lower funnel shaped end member 12 that is vertically reciprocal on an axial guiding rod 14 relatively to the lower rigid end of the pole; hereby the said beat movements will occur in a more firm manner between the pipe pole 2 and the f nnel member 12, this resulting in a still harder beat effect that is advan ⁇ tageous when the pole is driven down to a depth larger than e.g. 2.5 m.
- Fig. 3 illustrates an initial building out of a bridge, by which it has been possible from the shore side to flush down the first set of pipe poles 2 for receiving a first, preferably prefabricated bridge ele ⁇ ment 16, which is fastenable to the upstanding poles by the use of any suitable type of fastening fittings.
- the pole 2 may carry a horizontal bottom support plate 18 that will stabilize the pole against tilting and thus reduce the need of a deep intrusion of the pole in the ground.
- a crane 20 may be mounted on the fixed bridge element 16, the crane having a jig 22 that is usable for carrying a further bridge element 16', which, as shown in Fig. 5, may be outwardly displaced into a suspended position adjacent the end of the bridge, in which position this element may be used as a working platform for the flushing down of an ad ⁇ ditional pair of pipe poles 24 by means of a water pump 26 sucking water from the lake or sea water.
- the bridge element 16' can be secured thereto, still from above and by the labour of but a single operator, and thereafter the bridge can be built further out with the use of more bridge elements as shown in Fig. 6.
- the pipe poles may be provided with a horizontal support plate 28 at a place corresponding to the desired intrusion depth, this place in advance being measured out relative to the actual vertical distance down to the bottom.
- each of the poles may be adapted such that they will all project equally high, once mounted.
- the plates 28 will act as foot plates, which, by their engagement with the ground bottom, will form a well defined flushing down stop and also act laterally stabilizing on the poles.
- Figs. 7-9 show some examples of off-shore application, viz. a 'sea summer house', supported on vertical poles, a platform supported by inclined poles that are flushed down in a star pattern, and a sea pond farm with hanging nets, respectively.
- the invention may be used in con ⁇ nection with a known arrangement, whereby there is mounted on the bottom a socket element for guided, releasable reception of an upstanding pole element, such that upon the first mounting thereof it will be easy to take up and remount before and after the winter season, respectively; the socket element may have one or more depending anchor spears that are originally flushed down in accordance with the invention. It should be men ⁇ tioned, however, that this possibility is not necessari ⁇ ly more attractive than the disclosed working down and taking up of the poles or spears as a whole, because this work will be very easy to carry out and will not require any potentially difficult refinding of the socket elements.
