Definitions

• the invention relates to a protection and access device for the protection of workers and to allow access, especially in the construction of building ceilings, with a number of vertical profiles and a directly or indirectly attached to the profiles work platform.
• Such protective and access devices are used in the construction of structures to secure the not yet provided with a facade outdoor area of buildings and to provide access between adjacent floors of the building.
• a protection and access device of the type mentioned is disclosed for example in WO 01/53630.
• This has vertical beams, which are each attached via jibs on several building ceilings.
• trim panels arranged to provide a temporary facade.
• work platforms can be arranged on the carriers between the building ceilings. The device is raised intermittently from storey to storey, with the carriers being guided by the jibs during lifting.
• US 4,962,828 discloses a protection and access device having two levels of vertical profiles (inside and outside) and a third functional level (chain).
• the vertical profiles are guided into each other.
• a hydraulic drive is provided, the lower extension arm with the inner vertical profile is firmly connected or welded.
• the construction of the three functional levels is complex and has the further disadvantage that the device has a rather deep design.
• US 5,161,641 discloses a safety net which is slidably mounted on buildings via guide rails.
• the invention is based on the idea to broaden the scope of a protection and access device of the type mentioned and to make these independent.
• the working platform in an upper region directly or indirectly to the vertical profiles, which are preferably all in a single plane parallel to the building contour, is mounted.
• the protection and access device according to the invention it may be sufficient to provide only two vertical profiles which advantageously define a single plane of vertical profiles.
• the device according to the invention can not only fulfill a protection and access function for existing building sections, but also provide a working platform for yet to be created building sections.
• the device according to the invention allows, for example, to work in a safe manner on an already turned-on, but not yet concrete, building ceiling via the working platform attached to the vertical profiles in the upper area.
• the protection and access device with its cover also provides protection in building a formwork for the building ceiling to be created, on the one hand protection against falling, and on the other hand protection from the weather (wind, heat, cold) and noise.
• the vertical profiles are guided by cantilever beams, which can be attached to existing building ceilings.
• all existing vertical profiles can advantageously be guided on cantilever beams, which is an expression of the fact that advantageously only one plane of vertical profiles can be present, and no frame or the like with a further plane of vertical profiles for guiding the vertical profiles of the protective profiles. and access device is required.
• Under cantilever is understood to mean a cantilevered or fixed beam, which protrudes in the case of the present invention largely horizontally out of the building and at the end of the vertical profiles - preferably directly - out.
• the detachable from the device according to the invention drive allows trouble-free and rapid lifting of the vertical profiles with the attached components from one floor to the next, without the rest of the operation of the site is affected.
• This has proved to be particularly advantageous when advancing the vertical profiles in a still to be created building area, since in this case the use of separate hoists not only cumbersome, but also can be dangerous because the hanging of lifting hooks or the like in an (upper) area of Vertical profiles would have to be done in which there is still no secured building section available.
• the removable drive can be arranged in the context of the present invention at different locations of the device, it has been found to be advantageous according to a development of the invention that the drive between a cantilever and a vertical profile can be attached. This results in a particularly immediate power transmission with low lever arms and a stable support for the drive.
• At least one cantilever and / or at least one drive has a freewheel mechanism, in particular at least one gravity pawl.
• a gravity pawl for example, a spring-loaded pawl or another suitable freewheel mechanism can be used.
• the freewheel mechanism is adapted to engage with suitable portions on at least one vertical profile so that the corresponding profile can be translated in only one direction (upwards).
• a gravity pawl rests the corresponding profile in the stationary state on the gravity pawl, but can at a feed of the respective profile without manual actuation of the gravity pawl be guided past this, and then again to rest (via another engagement portion) on the gravity pawl.
• the freewheel mechanism allows a corresponding vertical profile to be automatically secured to a cantilever and / or a drive. Therefore, in the device according to the invention, even when the vertical profiles are advanced, work can be continued below the device, which is not possible with known devices. Furthermore, the freewheel mechanism on the at least one cantilever and / or on the at least one drive allows a stepless adaptation of the device according to the invention to different storey heights.
• At least one vertical profile has a plurality of projections and / or depressions with which the at least one gravity pawl can engage.
• these projections and / or recesses are also designed in such a way that not only the at least one gravity pawl but alternatively or additionally also a section of a drive can engage with them.

In this way, the Device even before a first building ceiling is concreted.
