Abstract
Description
Technical field
[0001] The invention relates to a device for receiving end railings of a scaffold, a system comprising such a device and the use of a device for receiving end railings for storing and / or transporting end railings. State of the art
[0002] The transport and storage of end guardrails for scaffolding on construction sites is a critical aspect, as it affects the efficiency of work processes, the material, and the safety of the workers.
[0003] A guardrail on a scaffold is a safety barrier attached to the front of the scaffold. Its purpose is to prevent falls of people or materials from the ends of the scaffold.
[0004] End railings are typically stored vertically or horizontally on pallets. Vertical racks are also available for vertical storage. To transport end railings, they must first be removed from storage and then transported to the installation site using suitable equipment. End railings can also be called end railing brackets.
[0005] Various methods are available for transporting end guardrails for scaffolding on construction sites. These include specialized transport carts and trolleys, mechanical and automatic lifting devices such as cranes or material hoists, as well as digital site management systems that optimize the process. The use of robotics and automation, such as autonomous transport systems or remotely controlled vehicles, is also increasing. However, these technologies have a number of disadvantages. The high acquisition costs and maintenance expenses of this modern equipment can represent a financial burden for smaller construction sites. Furthermore, the complex systems require specialized training and are often dependent on a stable digital infrastructure, which is not available everywhere. The limited flexibility and the potential safety risks in the event of technical failures or operator errors are further challenges.Finally, these technologies often require additional space and longer implementation times, which makes their use on smaller construction sites more difficult. Description of the invention
[0006] The invention is based on the objective of providing a device or system that is easy to handle, space-saving, easy to transport and safe.
[0007] This problem is solved by a device according to claim 1 and a system according to claim 11. Advantageous embodiments of the invention are specified in the dependent claims.
[0008] The device for receiving the end guardrails of a scaffold has a base comprising a first base element and a second base element. Each of the first and second base elements has a top surface, a bottom surface, a first longitudinal side, a second longitudinal side, a first end surface, and a second end surface. The top surface and the bottom surface can be connected to each other by the two longitudinal sides. The top surface can be opposite the bottom surface. The longitudinal sides can each share an edge with the end surfaces, as well as with the top surface and the bottom surface. The longitudinal sides can preferably extend at least approximately parallel (i.e., ±20°, preferably ±10°, particularly preferably ±2.5° or parallel) to the respective longitudinal axis. The end surfaces can be arranged opposite each other. The end surfaces can share an edge with the longitudinal sides, the top surface, and the bottom surface.The end faces can be open or closed. Each end face can have an opening.
[0009] The first and second base elements each have a longitudinal axis extending parallel to the top surface through the first and second end faces, respectively. The first and second base elements are connected to each other. The connection can be detachable, permanent, or conditionally detachable. The first and second base elements can be connected by a positive fit, a material connection, or a force-fit. Examples of such connections include bolted joints, welded joints, and clamped joints.
[0010] The second basic element can comprise at least two sub-pieces. The second basic element can comprise a first sub-piece and a second sub-piece.
[0011] The first segment of the second base element can be arranged on the first longitudinal side of the first base element, and the second segment of the second base element can be arranged on the second longitudinal side of the first base element. The first segment of the second base element can be connected to the first longitudinal side of the first base element, and the second segment of the second base element can be connected to the second longitudinal side of the first base element. Alternatively, the first segment of the second base element can be connected to the second longitudinal side of the first base element, and the second segment of the second base element can be connected to the first longitudinal side of the first base element.
[0012] The modular design offers the advantage of easier disassembly of the device. This facilitates transport and handling.
[0013] The first base element and / or the second base element can be designed as an elongated body. The first base element and / or the second base element can be designed as an elongated hollow body, for example, as a tube or beam. The first base element and / or the second base element can be designed as an elongated solid body. The first base element and / or the second base element can have a rectangular, square, circular, or elliptical cross-section. Designing the base elements as hollow bodies has the advantage of reducing the weight of the device and thus simplifying transport.
[0014] In a preferred embodiment, the first section and the second section of the second base element can each be designed as a branch from the first base element.
[0015] Each component can have a top, a bottom, a first longitudinal side, a second longitudinal side, a first end face, and a second end face. The first component can be connected to the first longitudinal side of the first base element via either its first end face or its second end face. The second component can be connected to the second longitudinal side of the first base element via either its first end face or its second end face. The components can be detachably, permanently, or conditionally detachably connected to the first base element. The components and the first base element can be connected by a positive fit, a material connection, or a force connection. For example, the first base element and the components can be connected by a screw connection, a weld connection, or a clamp connection.
[0016] The first base element can have at least one transverse bore. The transverse bore can extend orthogonally to the longitudinal axis of the first base element through the first longitudinal side and / or the second longitudinal side. The at least one transverse bore can penetrate the first longitudinal side and the second longitudinal side of the first base element. The at least one transverse bore can extend from the first longitudinal side of the first base element through the first longitudinal side and the second longitudinal side of the first base element. At least one fastening element can be arranged in the transverse bore. The at least one fastening element can connect the first base element to the second base element. The second base element can be attached to the first base element by means of the at least one fastening element. The first segment and / or the second segment can be attached to the first base element by means of the at least one fastening element.The first section and / or the second section can be attached to the first base element by means of at least one complementary fastening means.
[0017] The first section can be fastened to the first longitudinal side of the first base element by means of a first fastening element. The second section can be fastened to the second longitudinal side of the first base element by means of a second fastening element. The at least one fastening element can be threaded. The transverse bore can have a complementary thread. The at least one fastening element can be a screw, a bolt, or a threaded stud. The at least one fastening element can be connected to a complementary axial locking device.
[0018] The transverse mounting method has the advantage that the device is easy to disassemble. This simplifies storage, saves space, and improves transport.
[0019] Of course, the first section can also be attached to the second long side of the first base element and the second section to the first long side of the first base element.
[0020] Even if the second basic element consists of two parts, the second basic element can be considered as a whole.
[0021] The first and second base elements can be made of an iron-based material. The first and second base elements can be made of a material consisting predominantly of iron. The first and second base elements can be made of an iron alloy, steel, or galvanized steel.
[0022] The top and / or bottom of the respective base elements can be arranged in one plane.
[0023] The longitudinal axis of the first base element and the longitudinal axis of the second base element intersect at a point.
[0024] The longitudinal axis of the first base element and the longitudinal axis of the second base element form a first angle α. The first angle α is substantially 90° (i.e., 90° ±20°, preferably ±10°, particularly preferably ±2.5° or 90°). An angle of substantially 90° offers the highest stability, as the weight can be optimally distributed.
[0025] The first base element can be rigidly connected to the second base element, and / or the first angle α can be fixed. Neither the first nor the second base element can be moved, pivoted, or tilted relative to the other. This improves stability and increases safety, and also facilitates handling and transport. Pivoting, moving, or tilting the base elements can lead to instability during transport or storage. It is particularly important during transport that the end railings can be stored securely and firmly. Furthermore, a rigid connection and / or a fixed angle simplifies the handling of the device.
[0026] The longitudinal axes each form a line segment between the respective first and second end faces. Each line segment is bounded by the first and second end faces. The first longitudinal axis can form a first line segment, and the second longitudinal axis can form a second line segment.
[0027] The first and second base elements can form a cross. The first and second base elements can be arranged as a cross. The first and second base elements can form a cross with four sides of equal length. The first and second base elements can be arranged in the form of a Greek cross or a common cross. As is generally known, a Greek cross or common cross is a cross with four sides of equal length that are at right angles to each other.
[0028] The first base element and the second base element can be of essentially the same length. Preferably, the first base element and the second base element can be of the same length. The first segment and the second segment can be of essentially the same length (i.e., ±10 cm, preferably ±5 cm, particularly preferably ±2.5 cm, <2.5 cm, or 0 cm).
[0029] If the second base element is formed in the form of two sections, the first end face of the second base element can correspond to the end face of the first section facing away from the first longitudinal side of the first base element. The second end face of the second base element can correspond to the end face of the second section facing away from the second longitudinal side of the first base element.
[0030] The intersection of the longitudinal axes preferably lies at the midpoint of the segments. Optionally, the intersection of the longitudinal axes lies at the midpoint of the segments with a tolerance of 10%–20% of the segment length. The intersection can be the center of symmetry of the first and second base elements. The intersection can also be the center of symmetry of the device.
[0031] Stability can be increased by arranging the components in a cross shape or by positioning the intersection at the midpoint of the longitudinal axes. This position of the intersection point ensures optimal weight distribution, prevents tipping, and thus facilitates transport and storage. These properties can be further improved by using base elements of the same length.
[0032] The device has at least one attachment point, a first receiving device, and a second receiving device. Preferably, the device can have one attachment point. As is generally known, an attachment point serves as a fastening point for loads to which, for example, ropes, chains, lifting straps, or hooks can be attached in order to lift or secure them.
[0033] The at least one lifting point can be designed as a screw-in lifting point, a weld-in lifting point, a rigid lifting point, or a rotatable lifting point. A lifting point is understood to be a screw-in, clamp-in, or weldable fastening element by which a lifting device, a sling, or a device for moving loads can be securely connected, at least indirectly, to the load to be lifted. The lifting point can be connected to a lifting device or a sling.
[0034] The lifting device or rigging can be, for example, a rope (such as a steel cable), a load chain, a lifting chain, webbing slings, shackles, or hooks. The device for moving loads can be, for example, a crane.
[0035] The at least one anchor point can be designed as a swivel eye or a hinged anchor point. The at least one anchor point can be designed, for example, as an eye bolt, swivel anchor, weld-on hook, ball-bearing bolt, or transport ring. The at least one anchor point is connected to at least the first base element. The at least one anchor point can be connected to the first base element. The at least one anchor point can be detachably, permanently, or conditionally detachably connected to the first base element. The at least one anchor point can be connected to the first base element by means of a positive fit, a material fit, or a force fit. The anchor point can be connected to the first base element, for example, by a screw connection, a weld connection, or a clamp connection. The at least one anchor point can be connected to the first base element and the second base element.At least one of the attachment points can be located at the intersection of the longitudinal axes.
[0036] Different types of lifting points are suitable for various load capacities and / or lifting capacities. A swivel eye or a folding lifting point has the advantage of being movable and foldable when not in use. This saves space and prevents the lifting point from being in the way or getting caught on other objects. This folding function also allows the lifting point to flexibly adapt to the direction of pull, providing additional safety and stability.
[0037] The first base element may have at least one through-hole. The top and / or bottom of the first base element may have at least one through-hole. The at least one through-hole may extend from the top through the top and bottom. The at least one through-hole may be located at the intersection of the longitudinal axes. The anchor point may be connected to the first base element by at least one fastener. The at least one fastener may extend from the anchor point through the at least one through-hole. The at least one fastener may be threaded. The at least one fastener may be a screw or a threaded bolt. The at least one fastener may be connected to the anchor point. The at least one fastener may be connected to a complementary axial locking device.The at least one fastener can be connected to the underside of the first base element by a complementary axial locking device. The axial locking device can be screwed onto the at least one fastener. The axial locking device can be a nut. The axial locking device can be a cotter pin. The cotter pin can extend radially through the at least one fastener. The number of axial locking devices can correspond to the number of fasteners.
[0038] Preferably, the first base element has two through-holes. The first base element can have a first through-hole and a second through-hole. The through-holes can be arranged on the longitudinal axis of the first base element and on both sides of the intersection of the longitudinal axes. In one embodiment, the anchor point can have a bracket or eyelet and a mounting plate. The mounting plate can have a first opening and a second opening. The openings can be arranged coaxially with the through-holes. A first connecting element can pass through the first opening and the first through-hole, and a second connecting element can pass through the second opening and the second through-hole. Two through-holes can improve the safety of the device, since an anchor point can be secured with two connecting elements. This can also increase the possible load-bearing and leverage capacities.
[0039] At least one spacer sleeve can be arranged in the first base element between the top and bottom surfaces. The at least one spacer sleeve can be cylindrical, in particular circular cylindrical. The at least one spacer sleeve can radially surround the at least one connecting element within the first base element. The number of spacer sleeves can correspond to the number of connecting elements. The at least one spacer sleeve can ensure a fixed, uniform distance between the top and bottom surfaces. The at least one spacer sleeve can increase the stability and safety of the device. If the at least one connecting element is designed as a screw or a threaded bolt, the at least one spacer sleeve can prevent the first base element from being deformed by excessive pressure when the at least one connecting element is tightened. This increases the safety and stability of the device.In addition, at least one spacer sleeve facilitates assembly, as it can ensure a fixed positioning of the components, which increases the accuracy during assembly and reduces the time required.
[0040] The first receiving device and the second receiving device are connected to the first base element or the second base element. Preferably, the first receiving device and the second receiving device are connected to the first base element. The first receiving device and the second receiving device are arranged on the top surface of the first base element or the second base element. Preferably, the first receiving device and the second receiving device are arranged on the top surface of the first base element. The at least one stop point is arranged between the first receiving device and the second receiving device. The first receiving device and the second receiving device can be arranged symmetrically with respect to the at least one stop point.The first and second mounting devices can be arranged symmetrically about the at least one stop point, where the stop point corresponds to the point of symmetry. The first and second mounting devices can also be arranged symmetrically about the intersection of the two longitudinal axes. A symmetrical arrangement of the mounting devices can improve weight distribution and ensure greater stability of the device.
[0041] The first and second receiving devices can extend orthogonally to the longitudinal axis of the first base element, starting from the top. Alternatively, the first and second receiving devices can extend orthogonally to the longitudinal axis of the first base element, starting from the top, in the opposite direction to the bottom.
[0042] The first and second receiving devices can be designed as pins. They can also be designed as cylindrical, circular, or cuboid extensions. The first and second receiving devices can be tapered on the side facing away from the first base element. They can also be tapered and / or rounded on the side facing away from the first base element. Finally, they can be chamfered on the side facing away from the first base element. A tapered, rounded, or chamfered shape can simplify the mounting of end railings and / or extension pieces. It also improves the handling of the device.
[0043] A first extension piece can be attached to the first receiving device, and a second extension piece can be attached to the second receiving device. Each extension piece can be detachably connected to its respective receiving device, in particular detachably without damage. The first and second extension pieces can be designed as elongated bodies. The first and second extension pieces can be designed as elongated hollow bodies, for example, as tubes. The first and second extension pieces can radially surround their respective receiving devices. The first and second extension pieces can be connected to their respective receiving devices. The first and second extension pieces can be connected to their respective receiving devices by a plug connection or a screw connection.The extension piece can be loosely attached to the respective mounting device. The extension piece can have a thread, and the mounting device can have a complementary thread. The extension piece and the mounting device can be connected by means of a bayonet fitting or a cotter pin.
[0044] The detachable connection has the advantage that the extension pieces are removable, allowing the device to be easily stacked. This enables space-saving storage.
[0045] In one embodiment, the first extension piece and the second extension piece can be directly connected to the first base element. Alternatively, the first extension piece and the second extension piece can be connected to the first base element by means of a positive fit, a material fit, or a force fit.
[0046] By attaching the extension pieces, a larger number of end railings can be easily stacked in a space-saving manner. Furthermore, the end railings can be stored neatly and thus in a space-saving way. This saves space on the construction site during storage, ensures easy access to the end railings, and protects the material. Additionally, a larger number of end railings can be transported in a single operation. The extension pieces also improve load securing and prevent the end railings from slipping and / or uneven weight / load distribution. This can improve workplace safety and facilitate storage and / or transport.
[0047] In an exemplary embodiment, the first base element and the second base element are arranged in the form of a cross, in particular a Greek cross. The second base element has a first section and a second section. The first section is connected to the first longitudinal side of the first base element, and the second section is connected to the second longitudinal side of the first base element. The angle α is 90°. The attachment point is located at the intersection of the longitudinal axes. The attachment point is designed as a pivoting eyelet or a hinged attachment point, preferably with a mounting plate. The attachment point can be fastened to the first base element by two connecting means. The two connecting means can connect the attachment point to the first base element via the mounting plate. The first receiving device and the second receiving device are attached to the top surface of the first base element.A first extension element is arranged on the first receiving device, and a second extension element is arranged on the second receiving device. The first receiving device and the second receiving device are arranged symmetrically with respect to the stop point and / or the intersection of the longitudinal axes.
[0048] The system comprises a device for receiving the end guardrails of a scaffold and at least one end guardrail. The at least one end guardrail is arranged on the device for receiving the end guardrails. The at least one end guardrail can be arranged on the first base element and the second base element. The at least one end guardrail can be secured by the receiving devices and / or the extension pieces. The at least one end guardrail can be held on the device by the receiving devices and / or the extension pieces. The at least one end guardrail can be slid onto the receiving devices and / or extension pieces. The at least one end guardrail can radially surround the receiving devices and / or extension pieces.
[0049] Multiple end railings can be stacked on the base. These multiple end railings can be slid onto the mounting brackets and / or extension pieces.
[0050] The mounting devices and / or extension pieces can prevent at least one or more end railings from slipping. This simplifies the storage and transport of the end railings. Furthermore, the end railings can be stored and transported easily, safely, and cost-effectively in this way, and the risk to workers can be minimized.
[0051] The system may further include a device for moving loads, which may be connected to the device for receiving end guardrails. The device for moving loads may be a crane. The crane may be connected, at least indirectly, to the device for receiving end guardrails of a scaffold. The device for moving loads may be connected, at least indirectly, to the lifting point. The device for moving loads may be connected to the device for receiving end guardrails via a lifting or slinging device, for example, a load chain or a lifting chain.

[0059] The longitudinal axis L1 of the first base element 110 and the longitudinal axis L2 of the second base element 120 intersect at a point S.
