Modes for Carrying Out the Invention

[0013] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be illustrated with reference to the drawings.

[0014] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 2, in an embodiment of the present invention, the construction method is a construction method using an automatic temporary installation equipment 1 that can be expanded and contracted. The automatic temporary installation equipment 1 contracts when moving as shown in FIG. 1 and expands during construction at the construction site 2 as shown in FIG. 2.

[0015] According to the above configuration, the automatic temporary facility 1 can automatically move to the construction site 2 in a reduced state as shown by the dashed arrow in Fig. 1. At this time, since the automatic temporary facility 1 is compact, it can be easily moved. At the construction site 2, it expands automatically to the required size as shown by the two-dot chain arrow in Fig. 1, and as shown in Fig. 2, it can function as a scaffold (equipment that supports workers or work robots from below at the construction site) or shoring (equipment that supports the load of the construction object from below or horizontally at the construction site) or both. By using the automatic temporary facility 1, which is a temporary facility composed of a robot capable of automatic expansion and contraction, in the above manner, the installation process, which is the previous stage of the actual construction process, and the replacement / removal process, which is the subsequent stage, can be automated, thus expanding the possibility of robotic construction. According to this embodiment, the man-hours required to assemble temporary facilities for construction such as scaffolds or shoring can be reduced.

[0016] Note that Figs. 1 to 2 show an example of using the automatic temporary facility 1 as shoring that also serves as a scaffold function to support the beam 4 installed between the columns 3 from below, but the configuration of the automatic temporary facility 1 is not limited to this. The automatic temporary facility 1 may be configured to be used as shoring used outside the building (for example, to support the outer wall), or as an external scaffold used outside the building (for example, for constructing the outer wall), or as an internal scaffold used inside the building (for example, for constructing the inner wall). The automatic temporary facility 1 may be configured to have stairs, ladders, a conveying device (a device that can move in the vertical direction, horizontal direction, or both and conveys workers, work robots, or equipment, etc.) not shown, or may be configured such that these are installed after expansion. When the automatic temporary facility 1 is used as shoring, it is preferable that the automatic temporary facility 1 expands in a state where no load is applied, and then bears the load as shoring. The automatic temporary facility 1 can be composed of, for example, a three-dimensional lattice structure 1a as shown in the figure. The three-dimensional lattice structure 1a may be configured to have a telescopic part that can automatically expand and contract.

[0017] The automatic temporary facility 1 becomes reduced in size after construction at the first site (not shown) of the construction site 2, and as shown by the dashed arrow in Fig. 1, it moves from the first site to the second site of the construction site 2 in the reduced state, and expands at the second site as shown by the two-dot chain line arrow in Fig. 1 (the state after expansion is shown in Fig. 2). According to the above configuration, since the automatic temporary facility 1 can be repeatedly used at a plurality of construction sites 2, efficient construction can be realized.

[0018] The automatic temporary facility 1 can ascend and descend steps. According to the above configuration, the automatic temporary facility 1 can be automatically moved to and used at the construction site 2 that must pass through a movement path that requires ascending and descending steps such as stairs. For this purpose, the automatic temporary facility 1 may be configured to have, for example, a plurality of legs 1a1 that can operate independently of each other. Joints, drive sources, etc. (not shown) for operating the legs 1a1 can be provided as appropriate.

[0019] The automatic temporary facility 1 deforms according to the shape of the construction site 2. For example, the automatic temporary facility 1 expands to a shape that conforms to the shape of the construction site 2. For example, at the construction site 2 for constructing a planar wall, it expands to a shape that conforms to this planar wall, and at the construction site 2 for constructing a curved wall (which is curved in top view, side view, or both), it expands to a shape that conforms to this curved wall. According to the above configuration, the construction method using the automatic temporary facility 1 can be adapted to construction sites 2 of various shapes.

[0020] The automatic temporary facility 1 has a work automatic device 1b, and the work automatic device 1b can move using the automatic temporary facility 1. The work performed by the work automatic device 1b is not particularly limited. For example, it can be the assembly or disassembly of the automatic temporary facility 1 itself, painting, spraying, welding, refractory coating spraying, sealing, or grouting on the construction target, or any combination thereof. According to the above configuration, the automatic temporary facility 1 can be automatically expanded by the work automatic device 1b, for example, by assembling the automatic temporary facility 1 itself, or automatically reduced by disassembling it, or construction such as painting, spraying, welding, refractory coating spraying, sealing, or grouting can be automatically performed on the construction target. For improving construction efficiency, it is preferable that the work automatic device 1b can automatically move on the automatic temporary facility 1. For this purpose, the automatic temporary facility 1 may be configured to have a guide rail portion 1a2 that can guide the movement of the work automatic device 1b. The work automatic device 1b may be configured to have, for example, a robot arm and a work tool held at the tip of the robot arm.

[0021] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been described above, the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and the above-described embodiments can be variously changed without departing from the gist of the present invention.
