Description

[0001] Climbing system for a rail-guided climbing frame

[0002] The invention relates to a climbing system for a rail-guided climbing scaffold with climbing rails and climbing shoes for attachment to a structure, designed to support the climbing rails slidably along the structure. Furthermore, the invention relates to a corresponding climbing scaffold and a corresponding climbing protection shield, as well as a method for erecting a structure using a rail-guided climbing scaffold.

[0003] In modern buildings, especially high-rise buildings, it is common to have a central core that houses elevator shafts and stairwells and supports the building's floors. Such a core is generally made of poured concrete.

[0004] Such structures generally lack load-bearing exterior walls. Therefore, the floors remain partially or completely open at the edges for most of the construction period. Only the addition of a facade creates a building envelope.

[0005] These open floors pose numerous health and safety risks. People working at the open edges of the floors are at risk of falling from the structure. Furthermore, people working on the building, as well as members of the public, are at risk of tools, equipment, or debris falling from the open edges of the floors.

[0006] It is therefore known to provide scaffolding or even protective shields that extend around at least part of the perimeter of such a structure. These form a temporary building envelope and preferably also safe working platforms that are spaced outwards from the floors. Preferably, these scaffolding and protective shields are movable at least in the vertical direction in order to protect the edges of each floor while construction progresses. Such protective shields are usually referred to as anti-climbing shields. The corresponding scaffolding is referred to as climbing scaffolding. Moving these anti-climbing shields in the vertical direction of the structure can be carried out either by a crane or by a hydraulic lifting device that is supported on the floors of the structure. With regard to a transfer process to the next construction phase, in particular the concreting phase, a distinction is made between crane-independent (i.e.Self-climbing and crane-dependent climbing scaffolds. A crane is required for the basic assembly and disassembly of state-of-the-art self-climbing climbing scaffolds. The climbing units are partially pre-assembled on formwork platforms and then moved to the suspension points by crane.

[0007] Climbing frames and anti-climbing shields generally comprise at least one climbing rail and climbing shoes that hold the climbing rail during operation and extend outward from the edges of the floors. The anti-climbing shields also have an enclosure. The climbing shoes allow the respective structure to be moved vertically along the structure and can also be used to lock the structure's position on floors during operation.

[0008] Due to the size and weight of climbing frames and climbing protection shields, they can generally only be installed on a structure if the climbing rails can be adequately supported. Such support is generally required by climbing shoes at so-called suspension points. These suspension points serve to anchor the climbing shoes. These suspension points are usually provided during the construction of the respective floors and cast into the concrete. The suspension points can be provided either on a floor or on external floor walls.

[0009] This requirement to simultaneously support anti-climbing shields using climbing shoes at at least two suspension points, particularly at the floors of two floors, places a certain restriction on the use of climbing scaffolds and anti-climbing shields. Consequently, these can only be used once at least the first and second floors (in addition to the ground floor) have been constructed. Prior to this, a climbing scaffold and anti-climbing shield cannot be adequately supported. Consequently, no protection by climbing scaffolds or anti-climbing shields is provided until this point. Therefore, additional protection of the floor edges may be necessary during the construction of the lower floors.

[0010] Document GB 2 510 879 A discloses an anti-climbing shield system comprising an anti-climbing shield having a climbing rail adapted to be mounted on and displaceable along a structure, and an anti-climbing shield having a support having a base removably attached to the anti-climbing shield and adapted to hold the anti-climbing shield in a vertical orientation prior to mounting the climbing rail on the structure above ground level, such that the anti-climbing shield is freestanding.

[0011] It is an object of the invention to provide improved protection for floors with open edges. In particular, it is an object of the invention to provide a climbing system that allows for simple and flexible securing of the floor edges both during the construction of the first floors above ground and during the construction of subsequent floors.

[0012] This problem is solved by the teaching of the independent claims. Advantageous embodiments are claimed in the subclaims.

[0013] A first aspect of the invention relates to a climbing system for a rail-guided climbing frame, comprising:

[0014] • Climbing rails;

[0015] • a support device, designed to support a façade scaffold and to be detachably connected to the climbing rails to form a supporting structure; and

[0016] • Climbing shoes for attachment to a building, designed to support the supporting structure on the climbing rails so that it can be moved along the building.

[0017] Preferably, the support device in the climbing system is detachably connected to the climbing rails to form a support structure. A second aspect of the invention relates to a rail-guided climbing scaffold with a climbing system and a facade scaffold, wherein the facade scaffold is or can be attached to the support structure.

[0018] A third aspect of the invention relates to a climbing protection shield with a climbing scaffold, wherein an enclosure is attached to one side of the facade scaffold, which is facing away from the climbing rails.

[0019] A fourth aspect of the invention relates to a method for erecting a structure by means of a rail-guided climbing scaffold, comprising the following steps:

[0020] • Providing the support structure at a location where a building is to be erected;

[0021] • Mounting the facade scaffolding on the support structure;

[0022] • Construction of a first section of the structure;

[0023] • Mounting the climbing shoes on the first part of the structure;

[0024] • Inserting the climbing rails into the climbing shoes;

[0025] • Connecting the climbing rails with the support device to the support structure;

[0026] • first lifting of the climbing frame; and

[0027] • Construction of a second section of the structure.

[0028] Preferably, the detachable connection of the support structure and the climbing rails is realized by means of coupling elements, in particular bolts. Furthermore, the facade scaffolding is arranged vertically on the support structure, in particular placed vertically. Furthermore, the facade scaffolding is also preferably connected to the climbing rails. Furthermore, the climbing rail can also preferably consist of several individual parts.

[0029] A fifth aspect of the invention relates to a coupling element for fastening a facade scaffold to a support, in particular a climbing rail of a climbing system, wherein the coupling element has a fastening plate with at least one hole, in particular at least one hole, in particular an elongated hole, through which a fastening means, in particular a screw, can be guided for releasably fastening to the support in order to be releasably fastened to the support, and a coupling mechanism for being releasably fastened to at least one perforated disc or at least one vertical post of the facade scaffold.

[0030] The coupling element according to the invention has the advantage that a facade scaffold can be particularly easily connected to a support and can also be quickly removed from it. In particular, the coupling element requires no modification to a commercially available support with holes, as well as to a commercially available climbing scaffold with vertical posts and perforated plates.

[0031] A facade scaffold within the meaning of the invention is a self-supporting scaffold that can stand free on the ground. In particular, it is stabilized by its own construction and support on the ground. Furthermore, it can stand independently and does not require attachment to buildings or other surfaces. Preferably, a combination of vertical and horizontal elements, in particular frames, longitudinal ledgers, and diagonal bracing, creates individual scaffold bays that are connected to one another. This can give the facade scaffold further stability. Preferably, the scaffold is fall-proof thanks to railings and other components. Facade scaffolds are defined in particular in the standards EN12810 and EN12811. Facade scaffolds are also preferably referred to as free-standing scaffolds. These are described in the standard DIN 4420, Part 2, dated December 1990. Preferably, the facade scaffold is a frame scaffold or a single-post scaffold.Preferably, the facade scaffolding is a modular scaffolding.

[0032] A climbing rail according to the invention is preferably a profiled rail. A climbing rail can also preferably consist of several individual parts. For example, the climbing rail can be a double U-profile or several I-profiles joined lengthwise.

[0033] Supporting in the sense of the invention preferably means supporting or bracing from below. Furthermore, support is preferably provided at those points on the facade scaffolding where its load is transferred, in particular on which the facade scaffolding stands. Therefore, the support device preferably forms a base for the facade scaffolding. The invention is based on the approach of using a conventional facade scaffold known from the prior art in a first construction phase to erect the lower floors of a building, in particular the first and second floors above the ground floor, and using the same facade scaffolding as a climbing scaffold in a second construction phase to erect the additional floors.

[0034] The invention implements this by providing a climbing system with climbing rails and a support device, which can be connected to form a support structure. When used as intended, the support device of the climbing system is detachably connected to the climbing rails to form a support structure. The support device is designed to support the facade scaffolding. When used as intended, the support device supports the facade scaffolding, in particular the support device supports the facade scaffolding from below. In a first step, the facade scaffolding is placed and / or mounted on the support device. Thereafter, in a first construction phase, a first construction section with at least the first floor and the second floor above the ground floor is erected. During this first construction phase, the facade scaffolding secures the floors of the building.Once the floors of the first floors, in particular the first two floors, of the building have been constructed, climbing shoes can be attached to them, into which the climbing rails can be accommodated in a known manner. The climbing rails are connected to the support device to the support structure in order to support the entire support structure on at least one climbing rail by means of the climbing shoes. Preferably, the support structure comprising the support device and the climbing rails forms an L-shaped structure. In other words, the climbing rails are slidably mounted on the climbing shoes, wherein the support device is connected to the climbing rails and is thus mounted on the climbing rails. The entire support structure comprising climbing rails and support device can then be moved along the building, preferably at least substantially in a horizontal direction.

[0035] As is known from the prior art, either a crane is used to lift the support structure, or a lifting device, in particular a hydraulic device or an electric motor device, is used for the movement. For example, such a device can be attached to the floor or climbing shoes on the one hand and the support structure on the other, in order to move the support structure relative to the floor.

[0036] A second construction phase will then be completed, adding additional floors. During this second construction phase, the facade scaffolding, moved upwards using the climbing system, will secure the remaining floors of the building. This process can be repeated as often as required.

[0037] The invention enables the open edges of a building's floors to be secured against hazards to people using facade scaffolding, both at the beginning of the construction phase and at a later point in time, in particular throughout the entire construction phase. Furthermore, the facade scaffolding can serve as a work platform during the initial construction phase and subsequent construction phases. Activities such as plastering and assembly work, for example on windows, etc., can be carried out from the facade scaffolding. Pure climbing protection shield systems, also known as climbing protection walls, as they are known from the prior art, can only be used above a certain building height. The disadvantage, however, is that the building edge must be secured differently during the construction of the first floor(s).This is solved with the climbing systems and rail-guided climbing scaffolds according to the invention by allowing the vertical position of the facade scaffold on the building to be changed by means of the climbing system.

[0038] Commercially available facade scaffolding is particularly flexible in terms of possible facade shapes and building heights. Furthermore, facade scaffolding is available from a wide range of manufacturers and is particularly cost-effective compared to climbing scaffolds, which are designed solely for climbing purposes.

[0039] Compared to the sole use of facade scaffolding, a considerable amount of scaffolding material can be saved. According to the invention, the facade scaffolding only needs to be erected to a certain height, preferably around twelve meters. After that, it can be moved upwards using the climbing system to erect the rest of the structure. For conventional solutions, in which a facade scaffold is erected several dozen meters high, appropriate reinforcement and fastening would have to be provided. The invention combines the advantages of facade scaffolding with those of a climbing system. In particular, the adaptability of facade scaffolding to a building, particularly with regard to floor plan and height, can be directly transferred to the climbing system. Furthermore, the climbing system, in particular the climbing rails, the climbing shoes and, if applicable,Drives are only used when absolutely necessary, namely when the climbing scaffold needs to be moved upwards. Furthermore, the facade scaffold can be erected independently of the climbing system and combined with various climbing systems.

[0040] Depending on the application scenario, the climbing system, especially its climbing shoes, can be mounted on a wall instead of on the floor. Furthermore, it can also be mounted on parapets and climb on them.

[0041] In an advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the support device is connected to the climbing rails near one end of the climbing rail. This is preferably one of the two ends in the longitudinal direction of the climbing rails. Furthermore, the support device can preferably also be attached above the end of the climbing rail. This preferably creates an L-shaped support structure. The support device can thus be arranged or placed in the immediate vicinity of the ground or even on the ground.

[0042] In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the support device and the climbing rails in the support structure are aligned at least substantially perpendicular to each other. This advantageous embodiment is particularly advantageous when the facade of the building to be constructed is intended to extend perpendicular to the ground.

[0043] At least substantially perpendicular in the sense of the invention means in a range between approximately 80° and approximately 100° or, in particular, approximately 90°.

[0044] In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the support structure can further comprise cross bracing, which additionally connects a climbing rail and a region of the support device facing away from the climbing rail. The cross bracing can further strengthen the support structure. In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the support device comprises climbing rail supports, in particular I-beams and / or double U-beams and / or hollow profile beams. These beams are characterized by high rigidity against bending and torsional loads.

[0045] In a further advantageous embodiment, the support device is a support grid. By forming a support grid that supports the facade scaffolding at those points where its load is transferred, in particular where the facade scaffolding stands, a particularly lightweight design of the support device can be realized. Therefore, the support grid preferably forms a base for the facade scaffolding.

[0046] In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the supports of the support structure are arranged on two levels. This allows for a particularly flexible and compact support structure. In particular, the arrangement on two levels eliminates the need for welded connections between the supports of the support structure. In particular, the supports do not have to be butt-welded.

[0047] In a further advantageous embodiment, supports in a first plane extend at least substantially perpendicular to supports in a second plane. This also results in a particularly strong construction of the support device.

[0048] In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the beams of a first level are aligned in such a way that they can each be releasably connected to a climbing rail, with beams of the first level supporting beams of a second level, and with beams of the second level supporting the facade scaffolding. This allows loads to be transferred by supporting them from below.

[0049] In a further advantageous embodiment, the supports of the second level interconnect the supports of the first level. This eliminates the need for additional connectors between the supports of the first level.

[0050] In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the support device has at least one fastening element, in particular a fork head, which can be fastened to the support device, in particular to supports of the second level, and is configured to receive at least one end of a vertical post of the facade scaffold or to be received by the vertical post. By providing such a fastening element, the facade scaffold can be arranged particularly securely on the support device.

[0051] In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the fastening element comprises a first rod with a first threaded portion, in particular a base spindle, wherein a nut, in particular a spindle nut, is seated on the first threaded portion, by means of which a support point for the vertical post can be adjusted. The rod allows a vertical post of the facade scaffold to be mounted particularly securely. Furthermore, the position of the support point for the vertical posts can be adjusted, particularly horizontally, by means of the spindle nut.

[0052] In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the fastening element further comprises a first support element, a second support element, and a second rod with a second threaded portion, wherein the first rod and the second rod are fastened to the first support element, wherein the first rod extends on a first side of the first support element and the second rod extends on a second side of the first support element, which is opposite the first side, wherein the second support element has a hole in which the second rod can be received. By providing the support element with the second rod with a threaded portion, the fastening element can be fastened or clamped to the bore of a support. As a result, the fastening element can be stored captively on the support device.

[0053] In a further advantageous embodiment, the climbing system further comprises a coupling element which can be releasably attached to the climbing rails and has a coupling mechanism for captively attaching it to the facade scaffolding, in particular at least one perforated disc, or at least one vertical post of the facade scaffolding. By providing the coupling element, the facade scaffolding can also be attached to the climbing rails. This enables additional securing of the facade scaffolding at a vertical distance from the support device. This is particularly advantageous for securing the climbing scaffold against dynamic loads, such as wind loads. In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the coupling mechanism is a wedge-head coupling for releasably attaching it to the at least one perforated disc.This design is particularly advantageous because commercially available modular scaffolds are equipped with perforated discs that can be engaged with a wedge-head coupling. This makes the system particularly versatile and already uses dedicated coupling points.

[0054] In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the coupling element has a fastening plate with at least one hole, in particular at least one elongated hole, through which a fastening means, in particular a screw, can be guided for releasable attachment to the climbing rail. This allows the coupling element to be attached to a climbing rail particularly advantageously and releasably. If an elongated hole is used, the respective position of the coupling element on the vertical rail can be finely adjusted. This increases the flexibility of the coupling elements. In particular, they can be used on various climbing rails with different hole patterns. This also allows any deviations in the distances between holes in the climbing rails to be compensated for.

[0055] In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the coupling element has outriggers on which the coupling mechanisms are arranged, preferably substantially at an angle of 45° to a mounting plate. The outriggers can compensate for a gap between the location of the climbing rail and the cross braces and vertical posts and / or perforated plates of a facade scaffold. The arrangement at a 45° angle allows a gap between the climbing rail and the facade scaffold to be overcome particularly advantageously. Furthermore, this angle is adapted to the perforation of commercially available perforated plates.

[0056] At least substantially at an angle of 45° in the sense of the invention means in a range between approximately 30° and approximately 60° or, in particular, approximately 45°.

[0057] In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the outriggers extend from a mounting plate of the connecting element in two different, particularly opposite, directions, such that the coupling elements are spaced from the mounting plate both in a direction parallel to the mounting plate and in a direction perpendicular to the mounting plate. This allows gaps between the climbing rails and the facade scaffolding to be overcome particularly well.

[0058] In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the outriggers are reinforced by a vertically oriented first web and / or the mounting plate is reinforced by a vertically oriented second web, wherein the first web and the second web are preferably aligned perpendicular to each other. By providing the webs on the coupling element, it can be designed for significantly higher longitudinal and transverse loads, as well as torsional loads.

[0059] In a further advantageous embodiment, the climbing system further comprises an electric or hydraulic drive, which is preferably detachably attachable to the support structure on the one hand and to the climbing shoe and / or the structure, by means of which the support structure can be displaced in a self-climbing manner relative to the climbing shoe. This allows the climbing system to be raised or lowered relative to the structure without the use of cranes or external lifting devices.

[0060] The features and advantages described above with respect to the first aspect of the invention also apply accordingly to the further aspects of the invention and vice versa.

[0061] In an advantageous design of the climbing scaffold, the facade scaffold has balconies that enclose the climbing rails, so that the gap between the building and the climbing scaffold can be reduced, or in particular, minimized. This further reduces hazards to people posed by the open edges of the floors.

[0062] In an advantageous embodiment, the method further comprises the following work step:

[0063] • Attaching a cross brace between a climbing rail and a support device of the supporting structure.

[0064] In a further advantageous embodiment, the method further comprises the following work step: attaching an enclosure to one side of the facade scaffolding, in particular which faces the climbing rails.

[0065] In a further advantageous embodiment, the method further comprises the following work steps:

[0066] • further lifting of the climbing frame; and

[0067] • Construction of another part of the structure.

[0068] This allows the structure to be secured up to the last floor using the climbing frame according to the invention.

[0069] In an advantageous embodiment of the coupling element, the coupling mechanism is a wedge head coupling for releasably fastening to the at least one perforated disc.

[0070] In a further advantageous embodiment, the coupling element has arms on which the coupling mechanisms are arranged, preferably at least substantially at an angle of 45° to a fastening plate.

[0071] In a further advantageous embodiment of the coupling element, the arms extend from the fastening plate in two different, in particular opposite, directions in such a way that the coupling elements are spaced from the fastening plate both in a direction parallel to the fastening plates and in a direction perpendicular to the fastening plate.

[0072] In a further advantageous embodiment of the coupling element, the arms are reinforced by a vertically aligned first web and / or the fastening plate is reinforced by a vertically aligned second web, wherein preferably only the first and the second web are aligned perpendicular to each other.

[0073] Further advantages and features will become apparent from the following description with reference to figures.

[0090] Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a climbing scaffold 1 installed on the floors 8 of a building to be constructed. The climbing scaffold 1 has a support grid 2 on which a facade scaffold 9 is arranged. The support grid supports the climbing scaffold 1 and thus serves as a base for the climbing scaffold 1. The support grid 2 is supported by the floor 36 and is attached to climbing rails 5. In order to be supported on the floor 36, the support grid 2 preferably has height-adjustable feet (not shown) and / or is placed on wooden beams on the floor 36.

[0091] The climbing rails 5 are in turn guided by the climbing shoes 7, with one climbing shoe 7 per climbing rail 5 being attached to the floor 8 of the first floor, the floor 8 of the second floor, and the floor 8 of the third floor. The facade scaffold 9, together with a supporting structure formed by the support grid 2 and the climbing rails 5, can be moved vertically upwards on the building, with the climbing rails 5 being guided on the building by the climbing shoes 7 during the movement.

[0092] This can be done in a conventional manner using electric or hydraulic lifting devices (not shown). Alternatively, the entire supporting structure and facade scaffolding 9 can be lifted in a conventional manner using a crane (not shown).

[0093] Figure 2 shows the climbing frame 1 from Figure 1 in a perspective view from the side of the structure, whereby the structure is not shown.

[0094] Figure 3 shows a perspective view of a first embodiment of a climbing system 2 for a rail-guided climbing frame 1 of Figures 1 and 2.

[0095] The climbing system 2 comprises the support grid 6 as well as the climbing rails 5 and the extension 38 of the climbing rails, which together form a support structure 4 for a facade scaffold 9. Furthermore, the climbing system 2 has the fork heads 11 and coupling elements 24 (not shown), to which a facade scaffold 9 (not shown) can be attached to the support structure 4. The climbing rails 5 are guided, as described above with reference to Figures 1 and 2, in a known manner on a structure to be erected by means of climbing shoes 7. The climbing rails 5 can be inserted into guides of the climbing shoes 7 both laterally and from above.

[0096] Figure 4 shows a side cross-sectional view of the climbing frame 1 from Figures 1 and 2 in a plane which intersects the climbing shoes 7 in the middle.

[0097] As already described with reference to the climbing system 2 according to Figure 3, the support structure 4, which supports the facade scaffolding 9, has the support grid 6, a climbing rail 5 and a rail extension 38. The facade scaffolding 9 has vertical posts 12 and horizontal posts 35. The vertical posts 12 are modular in design and plugged together. The facade scaffolding 9 is attached to the support structure 4 by means of fork heads 11 and coupling elements 24. The support structure 4 is mounted via the climbing rails 5 on the climbing shoes 7, which in turn are attached to the floor slabs 8 of a building by means of anchors 37. Alternatively or additionally, vertical posts 12 with horizontal posts 35 form vertical frames, which can preferably also be plugged together in a modular manner. Alternatively or additionally, horizontal posts 35 arranged at least substantially perpendicular to one another form horizontal frames.These can preferably be attached to the vertical frame.

[0098] Figure 5 shows an enlargement of section A from Figure 4.

[0099] In the area of ​​the floor levels 8, platforms 33 are preferably arranged in the facade scaffolding to provide a working platform. From these work platforms, activities on the building's exterior, such as plastering and installation work, for example, on windows, etc., can be carried out.

[0100] The supporting structure 4 preferably further comprises a cross bracing 10 to reduce leverage at the attachment point between the climbing rail 5 and the support grid 6. In the area of ​​the platforms 33, the climbing scaffold 9 preferably further comprises balconies 15 that enclose the climbing rails 5 to close gaps between the floor slabs 8 of the building and the platforms 33, thus providing better fall protection. Balconies 15 are preferably supported by additional cross bracing (no reference symbol) relative to the vertical posts 12 of the climbing scaffold 9. Furthermore, the facade scaffold 9 preferably further comprises vertical posts 35 for reinforcement.

[0101] The climbing rails 5 have locking elements (no reference symbol) in a manner known per se in order to be locked onto corresponding counterparts on the climbing shoes 7 against the force of gravity.

[0102] Figure 6 shows an enlarged view of a climbing frame 1 according to Figure 2 in a perspective view in the area of ​​the support grid 6.

[0103] As can be seen from Figure 6, the support grid 6 has two levels of supports 6a, 6b. The first supports 6a of the lower level are arranged perpendicular to the second supports 6b of the second level, and each first support 6a is connected to a climbing rail 5. The cross brace 10 is also preferably arranged between the climbing rail 5 and the respective first supports 6a. The two supports 6b rest on the first supports 6a and connect the first supports 6a to one another.

[0104] The first supports 6a and the second supports 6b are preferably connected by means of connectors 39. These connectors preferably comprise support elements that can be connected by means of a threaded rod and nuts, wherein the threaded rod is inserted through holes in a first support 6a and a second support 6b, respectively.

[0105] The fork head 11 is explained in detail below using Figures 7, 8 and 9:

[0106] Figure 7 shows an enlargement of section B from Figure 6 in the area of ​​the fork head 11. Figure 8 shows an enlargement of Figure 5 in the area of ​​the fork head 11. Figure 9 shows an enlargement of section C in Figure 3.

[0107] In a similar manner to the connectors 39, the fork heads 11 have a first support element 17 and a second support element 18, which are connected by means of a second rod 19 with a second threaded portion (not shown) by inserting the second rod 19 through a hole of a second support 6b and fastening the second support element 18 by means of a nut on the second threaded portion.

[0108] Preferably, the second rod 19 is designed merely as a screw which is guided through a hole in the fork head 11, in particular through the first support element 17 of the fork head and through a corresponding hole in the second support element 18, as shown in the figures.

[0109] In addition to the support elements 17, 18, the fork head has a first rod 13 with a threaded section 20, on which a spindle nut 14 is rotatably mounted. Preferably, the first rod 13 is designed as an extension of the second rod 19. The support 6b of the support device is designed as a double I-beam in the figures. The first rod 13 can be guided through the gap in the support, so that the first section element 13 and the second section element 19 can be clamped against each other by means of a nut (not shown).

[0110] Vertical posts 12 of the facade scaffold 9 are preferably placed on the first rods 13 of the fork head 11. These enclose the first rods 13 until they meet the spindle nuts 14, which form a stop 16 for the vertical posts 12. The relative position of the stops 16 with respect to the stops 17 can be changed by turning the spindle nut 14.

[0111] As can also be seen from the figures, the facade scaffold 9 has a perforated disc 27 in the area of ​​the end pieces of each vertical post module. Wedge-head couplings can be locked to the perforated discs in this perforated disc using wedge heads. Furthermore, individual elements of the vertical posts 12 and the horizontal posts 35 are preferably attached to the perforated discs 27.

[0112] Figure 10 shows a perspective view of the climbing frame 1 in the area of ​​the climbing rails 5, which are guided by the climbing shoes 7 on the structure.

[0113] To secure the facade scaffolding 9 to the climbing rails 5, coupling elements 24 are preferably provided. These coupling elements 24 preferably have elongated holes 29a, 29b, by means of which they can be fastened to holes in the climbing rail 5 using screws 30. These holes are preferably made in a fastening plate 28 of the coupling element 24. From the fastening plate 28, preferably at an angle of 45° to the fastening plate 28, outriggers 31a, 31b extend obliquely outward, to which coupling mechanisms, in the illustrated case wedge-head couplings, are attached. These coupling mechanisms are designed to be fastened to perforated disks 27 by means of wedge heads 25a, 25b.

[0114] In order to enable access to the climbing frame 1, the façade scaffold 9 preferably has platforms which are mounted between vertical posts 12 of the façade scaffold, in particular on the perforated discs 27. Furthermore, the balconies 15 already described above are provided to secure an intermediate space between a building and the platforms 33.

[0115] Figure 10 also shows a possible coupling mechanism between guide rail 5 and climbing shoe 7.

[0116] Figure 11 shows a detailed view of an embodiment of a coupling element 24 according to Figure 10.

[0117] As already explained above, the coupling element 24 has a fastening plate 28 in which elongated holes 29a, 29b are formed. Extending away from the fastening plate 28, preferably at an angle of approximately 45°, are arms 31a, 31b. At their ends, these arms 31a, 31b, as shown, preferably have an angle, with a plane formed by this angle preferably being aligned at least substantially perpendicular to the actual arm 31a, 31b. A wedge-head coupling is preferably arranged on this plane as a coupling mechanism 25a. This can be fastened by means of wedge heads 41a, 41b to an opening, in particular openings of a perforated disc (not shown).

[0118] The mounting plate 28 and the outriggers 31a, 31b are preferably reinforced by a first web 32a and a second web 32b. The two webs 32a, 32b are preferably at a right angle to each other and are further preferably welded to the mounting plate 28 and the outriggers 31a, 31b. Preferably, the first strut 32a also extends in the region of the angle of the outriggers 31a, 31b.

[0119] Figure 12 shows a second embodiment of a climbing frame 1, wherein a perspective view in the region of the lower end of the climbing rails 5 is shown.

[0120] In contrast to the first embodiment of the climbing frame 1, the climbing system 2 in the second embodiment is multi-part. Thus, the climbing system 2 comprises two support devices 6. In this embodiment, too, the support devices 6 preferably comprise a first support 6a, which is connectable to the climbing rail 5 and is connected in Figure 12, and a second support 6b, which is carried perpendicularly by the first support 6a and supports vertical posts 12 of the climbing frame 9. In this embodiment, too, the support device 6, together with the climbing rail 5, forms a support structure 4 when connected.

[0121] In contrast to the first embodiment, however, not all vertical posts 12 are supported on the second beams 6b. Rather, in the area between the individual support structures 6, the facade scaffold 9 is self-supporting.

[0122] Compared to the first embodiment of the climbing frame 1, the second embodiment requires significantly fewer supports 6a, 6b. This reduces, in particular, the weight load from the support device 6 and / or the support structure 4.

[0123] Figure 13 shows an embodiment of a rail-guided climbing protection shield 3.

[0124] The climbing protection shield 3 comprises a climbing scaffold 1 according to the first embodiment shown in Figure 1, as well as an enclosure 34 that closes the facade scaffold 9 on the side facing away from the structure 8. This allows a temporary building envelope for the structure 8 to be achieved, which is also movable relative to the structure 8.

[0125] In the same way, a climbing frame 1 of the second embodiment according to Figure 12 can be used. Figure 14 shows a perspective detailed view of the rail-guided climbing protection shield according to Figure 13 in the area of ​​the support device 6.

[0126] The open areas of the facade scaffold 9 are closed by the enclosure 34, which is formed as a single piece or as individual elements, each of which closes an opening formed by the vertical posts 12 and horizontal posts 35. The enclosure 34 is preferably designed as a grid, plate, net, or foil.

[0127] In the area of ​​the climbing frame 9 which is directly adjacent to the support device 6, there are preferably no elements for the enclosure 34.

[0128] Figure 15 shows an embodiment of a method 100 for erecting a structure 8 by means of a rail-guided climbing scaffold 1 according to one of the embodiments described above.

[0129] In a first work step 101, the support grid 6 is provided at a location where a structure 8 is to be erected.

[0130] In a second work step 102, a first subsection of the structure 8 is erected. This is preferably the first two floors in a structure 8 with open edges on the floors. This may vary for other structures. In any case, the structure 8 must be high enough to allow two climbing shoes 7 to be attached to the structure 8 at a sufficient distance for the climbing rail 5. Preferably, the facade scaffold 9 is used during the erection of this first subsection and already serves as a working platform or to secure the personnel working on the construction site as well as the area around the structure to be erected.

[0131] In a third work step 103, the climbing shoes 7 are mounted on the first part of the structure 8. In the embodiment shown, the climbing shoes 7 are anchored to the floors 8 of the already constructed floors.

[0132] The climbing rails 5 are preferably inserted into the climbing shoes 7 in a fourth step 104. In a fifth step 105, the climbing rails 5 are connected to the support grid 6 to form the supporting structure 4. In particular, first supports 6a are connected to the climbing rails 5.

[0133] Furthermore, preferably in a sixth work step 106, a cross brace 10 is attached between the climbing rail 5 and the support grid 6, in particular a first support 6a of the support grid.

[0134] In an alternative embodiment, the fifth work step 105 and / or the sixth work step 106 can also be performed before the fourth work step 104. In this case, the support structure 4 is created first, and only then is the climbing rail 5 inserted into the climbing shoe 7.

[0135] If it is not just a climbing scaffold 1 but also a climbing protection shield 3, then in a seventh step 107, an enclosure 34 is attached to a side of the facade scaffold 9 facing away from the climbing rails. This step can be performed at any time after the facade scaffold 9 has been mounted on the support grid 6. This preferably occurs as soon as the climbing rail 5 is connected to the support grid 6 to form the support structure 4.

[0136] In an eighth work step 108, the climbing frame 1 is first lifted. Preferably, the climbing frame 1 is then locked in this position on the climbing shoes 7.

[0137] Preferably, the lifting is carried out, as already described above, in a known manner by means of an electric or hydraulic lifting device (not shown), which is mounted between the support structure 4 and the climbing shoes 7 or the structure 8. Otherwise, the lifting can also be carried out by means of a crane.

[0138] In a ninth work step 109, a second section of the building 8, in particular a third floor 8, is constructed.

[0139] In a tenth work step 110, additional climbing shoes 7 are mounted on this second section of the structure 8, in particular on the third floor 8. In an eleventh work step 111, the climbing frame 1 is raised so that the climbing rails 5 are threaded into the additional climbing shoes 7 on the second section of the structure 8. Here, too, the climbing rails 5 are again locked to the climbing shoes 7. Subsequently, additional parts of the structure 8 can be erected, with additional floors 8 being erected in a twelfth work step 112.

[0140] The tenth work step 110 to the twelfth work step 112 are preferably repeated until the last floor of the building 8 is erected.

[0141] It should be noted that the embodiments are merely examples and are not intended to limit the scope of protection, application, or structure in any way. Rather, the preceding description provides the skilled person with a guide for implementing at least one embodiment. Various modifications, particularly with regard to the function and arrangement of the described components, may be made without departing from the scope of protection as defined by the claims and equivalent combinations of features.
