Description

Technical Field

[0003]

[0001] The object of the present invention is a climbing wall that has been found to be useful as an artificial climbing wall for recreation and sports practice.

Background Art

[0002] In the prior art, from German Patent No. 202005009100U1, a spatial climbing structure having a support frame with open compartments and closed compartments is known. The support frame is made up of vertical brackets and horizontal brackets that form a cuboid shape. The intersecting brackets of the support structure form compartments, and fillers in the form of plates are attached to the compartments so as to form an arrangement of passages similar to a maze with branches and intersections across the support structure. Thus, this type of filler closes the selected compartments of the support structure. The continuous fillers attached to the support structure have functional properties and they are provided with additional elements such as climbing holds, ladders, steps, or slides. The fillers with climbing holds attached thereto make it possible to create climbing sections within the support structure, and the climbing holds can also be installed in other parts of the climbing structure. The support structures can be combined with each other to form larger units having various outer shapes.

[0003] Instead, European Patent No. 2420304A1 discloses a modular climbing wall having a support structure with an arrangement of vertical and horizontal partitions. The partitions define a set of compartments to which the bodies of climbing holds are detachably attached. The compartments can have any internal shape formed by the connected partitions, and the external shape of the climbing hold body must conform to the internal shape of the compartment. Specifically, they are cubic compartments, and the climbing hold body to which it is attached has a cubic shape. The external shape of the climbing hold body itself corresponds to the shape of the compartment, and the body is fitted with the appropriate climbing hold portion. The body fitted with the appropriate climbing hold portion forms a module to be installed within the compartment of the climbing wall. Detachable attachment to the compartment is achieved by bolts or locking elements installed at the intersections of the partitions in the front part of the climbing wall. Specifically, the locking elements may have a cross shape attached to the intersections of the partitions. Therefore, in the neutral position, the entire locking element fits within the plane of the partition. After repositioning, however, the arm locks the four sections together with the climbing holds. The sections of the climbing wall are filled with modular climbing holds. The arrangement of climbing routes is simple, and the position of the climbing hold bodies can be arbitrarily changed between sections within the climbing wall, or by changing the position of the climbing hold bodies within a section, thus allowing for the creation of climbing routes of various difficulty levels. [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0004] [Patent Document 1] German Patent No. 202005009100U1 [Patent Document 2] European Patent No. 2420304A1 [Overview of the Initiative] [Problems that the invention aims to solve]

[0005] The objective of this invention is to improve and expedite the replacement of climbing holds in order to arrange climbing routes. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The subject of the invention is a climbing wall comprising at least one climbing wall module having a support structure with an arrangement of partitions defining a spatial compartment in which multiple climbing hold bodies are housed, wherein the climbing hold bodies are distinguishable by their front wall, rear wall, and side wall, and the front wall of the climbing hold body, together with the support structure, forms the front surface of the climbing wall module adapted to the movement of the user of the climbing wall. The essence of the invention is that, behind the at least one climbing wall module, at a distance therefrom, there is at least one climbing hold storage module, which has a support structure with an arrangement of partitions defining a spatial compartment adapted to receive the climbing hold bodies, and in the space between the climbing wall module and the climbing hold storage module there is at least one robot adapted to operate the multi-wall bodies of the climbing holds housed in the climbing wall module and / or the climbing hold storage module. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] It is preferable if the spatial shape of the climbing hold storage module corresponds to the shape of the compartments in the climbing wall module.

[0008] It is beneficial if the back wall of the climbing hold has at least one service hold section for manipulating the climbing hold.

[0009] It is reasonable to have a multi-axis Cartesian coordinate robot with at least one gripping and manipulating arm in the space between the climbing wall module and the climbing hold storage module.

[0010] It is preferable if the Cartesian coordinate robot has a retractable gripping and manipulating arm.

[0011] It is particularly preferable if the gripping and operating arms are mounted so as to be rotatable in the vertical axis and / or horizontal axis direction.

[0012] It is beneficial if the gripping and manipulating arm has at least one joint.

[0013] It is equally meaningful if the gripping and operating arms have electromagnets.

[0014] It is equally preferable if at least one wall of each section has at least one recess adapted to receive at least one movable projection installed on at least one side wall of the body of the climbing hold.

[0015] It is preferable if the front surface of the climbing wall module has a movement restraint for the body of the climbing hold.

[0016] It is also desirable that the compartments of the climbing wall module be configured such that the opening on the front surface of the wall module has a smaller clearance than the opening on the rear surface of the climbing wall module, so that the body of the climbing hold received within the compartment is locked in place and cannot be removed from the front of the climbing wall.

[0017] It is equally meaningful if the back wall of the climbing hold has a rock flange.

[0018] It is reasonable if safety points for securing users of a climbing wall during ascent and descent are attached to the support structure of the climbing wall module.

[0019] It is beneficial if the climbing hold storage module is positioned parallel to the climbing wall module.

[0020] The main advantage of the invention is that it provides storage compartments for various types of climbing holds in close proximity to the climbing wall itself, which is achieved by a climbing hold storage module. This simplifies the design of the climbing hold bodies that are seated within the compartments of the climbing wall module and the climbing hold storage module. The climbing hold bodies are slid into the compartments of the climbing wall module or the climbing hold storage module. The climbing wall module has a front surface adapted to the user's movement on the wall. By installing the climbing hold storage module separately from the climbing wall module, a space is provided between the climbing wall module and the climbing hold storage module to enable the replacement of holds. The replacement and placement of climbing routes are achieved by a robot installed in this space and adapted to operate the climbing hold bodies. The replacement of climbing hold bodies proceeds very quickly by moving the climbing hold bodies from the climbing wall module to the climbing hold storage module. Furthermore, if a robot is used, it becomes possible to replace climbing holds without the participation of human workers. The use of a robot enables the achievement of further advantages. It is possible to remotely control the robot, or to arrange the climbing route in dedicated software and transmit a set of commands for autonomous execution by the robot. Moreover, the robot can perform its activities while a climber is ascending the climbing wall, or during times when the climbing wall is not in use, for example, at night. Thus, the climbing route can be arranged automatically, as the robot automatically places arbitrarily selected holds from the climbing hold storage module into the climbing wall module.

[0021] Further advantages are achieved by forming spatial compartments corresponding to the compartments within the support structure of the climbing wall. This makes it possible to use a Cartesian coordinate robot in the workspace, which has a simple design and allows it to work in three-dimensional space and perform motion in all directions. By equipping the robot with a telescopic arm, the robot can easily reach climbing holds from the workspace with the arm extended, and manipulate these climbing holds with the arm retracted in a limited space. Ease of operation can be further enhanced by mounting the gripping and manipulating arms so that they can rotate in the horizontal and vertical axes. By providing a service hold on the rear surface of the climbing hold body, it is now possible for a properly fitted robot to easily grip this body of the climbing hold. This increases the certainty of holding the climbing hold and reduces the risk of the climbing hold being unintentionally released. By equipping the robot arm with an electromagnet, it can easily cooperate with various types of metal elements that make up the climbing hold body.

[0022] Further advantages are achieved if at least one wall of each compartment has at least one recess adapted to receive at least one movable projection installed on at least one side wall of the body of the hold. This allows the body of the climbing hold to be easily locked in the compartment. The process of mounting the body of the climbing hold within a compartment of a climbing wall module or a hold storage module can also be achieved on the front surface of the climbing wall module, specifically when the front surface of the climbing wall module has a working restraint for the body of the climbing hold, or when the compartment of the support wall module has a smaller clearance on the front surface side of the wall module than on the rear surface side of the wall module. Furthermore, providing a locking flange on the rear wall of the body of the climbing hold also protects the climbing hold from being removed by the user of the climbing wall.

[0023] The support structure of the climbing wall module is adapted to transmit huge loads, and thus safety points for transmitting the required static and dynamic loads during climbers' ascent and descent can be attached to the support structure. Yet another advantage can be achieved by the articulated connection of the support structure of the climbing wall module or the climbing hold storage module. This enables structures such as slabs or overhangs as well as bend or edge structures. Robots can also cooperate with climbing wall modules arranged in such a way, i.e., the robot can have another articulated connection on its arm, enabling the arm to tilt according to the inclination of the climbing wall module.

[0024] The subject matter of the invention is shown in the embodiments and the drawings.

[0026] Climbing wall 1 (Figure 1) comprises one climbing wall module 2 and one climbing hold storage module 3. The climbing hold storage module 3 is located behind the climbing wall module 2, at a distance from it. As a result, a space exists between the climbing wall module 2 and the climbing hold storage module 3, which will also be described as the working space 4 in the following parts of the embodiment. The space between the climbing wall module 2 and the hold storage module 3 is mainly demarcated by the rear surface of the climbing wall module 2 and the front surface of the climbing hold storage module 3. In other embodiments, climbing wall 1 may also comprise more than one climbing wall module 2 and / or more than one climbing hold storage module 3.

[0027] Both the climbing wall module 2 (Figure 2) and the climbing hold storage module 3 have a support structure 5 with an arrangement of vertical and horizontal partitions 6 defining a rectangular spatial compartment 7. The bodies 8 (Figure 3) of the climbing holds 10, which are rectangular in shape, are detachably attached to the spatial compartment 7 (Figure 4). These bodies 8 are distinguishable by a front wall 8A, a rear wall 8B, and side walls 8C. The bodies 8 of the climbing holds 10 have a suitable climbing hold section 9 on the front wall 8A. Together with the suitable climbing hold section 9, the bodies 8 of the climbing holds 10 form the climbing hold 10. The suitable climbing hold section 9 may begin as an ordinary rectangular prism projecting beyond the plane defined by the edges of the support structure 5 and end in any kind of regular three-dimensional geometric figure or an irregular form mimicking a natural convex or concave rock surface, and may have any form that serves the function of a climbing hold and footrest commonly encountered on an artificial climbing wall. The appropriate, concave climbing hold portion 9 is a recess that fits inside the body 8 of the climbing hold 10. Within the climbing wall 1, there is also a neutral climbing hold 10 with a flat front wall 8A. When installed in section 7 of the climbing wall module 2, the neutral climbing hold 10 forms a substantially uniform surface together with the structural elements and other climbing holds 10. The climbing holds 10 can be installed arbitrarily within section 7 because the position of the appropriate climbing hold portion 9 can be changed by rotating each body 8 of the climbing hold 10 by 90°.

[0028] In the second embodiment (Figure 5), the spatial compartment 7A has a regular hexagonal shape, and the climbing hold 10A is assigned to it. The body of the climbing hold 10A is a spatial block having hexagons on both of its bases, with the hexagons forming the front and back walls, respectively. The side walls are also distinguishable within this body. The hexagonal spatial compartment 7A is formed by the appropriate arrangement of partitions 6A. Such shapes of the spatial compartment 7A and the climbing hold provide greater feasibility in setting up the appropriate climbing hold, as the climbing hold 10A can be rotated 60° and set up in the appropriate position.

[0029] In other embodiments, the spatial partition can have any shape defined by the arrangement of partitions within the support structure. Specifically, it can have the shape of a regular polygon with a base such as a triangle, pentagon, or octagon.

[0030] In climbing wall module 2, the front surface, which is adapted to the user's movements on the climbing wall, is distinguishable just like the rear work surface. The front surface of climbing wall module 2 is formed by the module's support structure 5 and the front wall 8A of the climbing hold body 8. Appropriate climbing hold sections 9 that form climbing routes are installed on the front surface (Figure 8). Climbing routes are formed by various types of climbing holds 10 arranged in arbitrary configurations within the matrix of section 7 of climbing wall module 2. The rear wall 8B of the climbing hold body 8 is installed on the rear work surface of climbing wall module 2 (Figure 9). Therefore, the rear wall 8B of the climbing hold body 8 is accessible from the work space 4 side. Similarly, in climbing hold storage module 3, the climbing hold body 8 is positioned such that the rear wall 8B of the climbing hold body 10 is accessible from the work space 4 side. For example, the climbing holds 10 are arranged in a grouped and ordered manner within compartment 7 of the hold storage module 3 (Figure 10).

[0031] Furthermore, safety points (not shown in the drawings) for transmitting the necessary static and dynamic loads during the climber's ascent and descent are attached to the front surface of the support structure 5 of the climbing wall module 2. On the other hand, as already mentioned, a climbing hold storage module 3 is installed behind the climbing wall module 2, at a distance from it.

[0032] In the simplest design of the climbing wall 1, the space between the climbing wall module 2 and the climbing hold storage module 3, which is the so-called workspace 4, is exclusively adapted to the movement of a robot, particularly a Cartesian coordinate robot 11. Therefore, any robot moving within the workspace 4 between the modules can arbitrarily swap the climbing holds 10 between the climbing wall module 2 and the climbing hold storage module 3. Furthermore, the robot can also change only the angular position of the climbing holds 10, thus correcting the arrangement of individual appropriate climbing hold sections 9 along the climbing route.

[0033] Therefore, any robot adapted to operate the multi-wall body 8 of the climbing holds 10 housed in the climbing wall module 2 and the climbing hold storage module 3 may be installed in the workspace 4. In the embodiment shown in the drawings, a Cartesian coordinate robot 11 is installed in the center of the workspace 4 between the climbing wall module 2 and the climbing hold storage module 3 (Figures 11-15). To accomplish this, two vertical guide rails 12 are seated in the workspace 4, to which a horizontal guide rail 13 is slidably attached. The Cartesian coordinate robot 11 is also slidably seated on the horizontal guide rail 13. The Cartesian coordinate robot 11 has a body that moves along the horizontal guide rail 13, to which two gripping and operating arms 14A and 14B have joint bases that are rotatably connected. Furthermore, the gripping and operating arms 14A and 14B are themselves rotatably connected to the joint bases. Therefore, the Cartesian coordinate robot 11 can move vertically in the Y direction and along the height of the climbing wall 1, and horizontally in the X direction and along the width of the climbing wall 1, and can also perform rotational motion around the vertical axis O1 via the rotatable connection of the joint base of the two gripping and operating arms 14A, and can swap the climbing holds 10 between the climbing wall module 2 and the climbing hold storage module 3. Furthermore, the fact that the gripping and operating arms 14A and 14B are rotatably connected to the joint base via rotational motion around the horizontal axis O2 can be interpreted as enabling the angular setting of the position of the climbing holds 10.

[0034] The gripping and manipulating arms 14A and 14B of the Cartesian coordinate robot 11 have a telescopic design and end with a square hand equipped with an electromagnet. The telescopic design of the gripping and manipulating arms 14A and 14B allows for very easy extension or retraction of their length. Thus, the gripping and manipulating arms 14A and 14B can move in the Z direction, allowing them to reach the climbing hold 10 from the workspace 4 when the gripping and manipulating arms 14A and 14B are in the extended position, and to manipulate the climbing hold 10 when the gripping and manipulating arms 14A and 14B are in the retracted position. All of these actions can be performed in the space between the climbing wall module 2 and the hold storage module 3.

[0035] Other embodiments are also possible in which the robot, particularly the Cartesian coordinate robot, has more gripping and manipulating arms, such as four or six. More arms would speed up the exchange of climbing holds 10 between the climbing wall module 2 and the hold storage module 3.

[0036] The main body 8 of the climbing hold 10 has a square recess in its rear wall 8B that forms a service hold section 15, and the hands of the gripping and operating arms 14A and 14B are shaped to fit into it. Furthermore, there is a metal plate in the area of ​​the rear wall 8B of the main body 8 of the climbing hold 10, and when the electromagnets of the gripping and operating arms 14A and 14B are activated, the climbing hold 10 can be maintained while remaining connected to the gripping and operating arms 14A and 14B. Thus, the service hold section 15 allows the Cartesian coordinate robot 11 to perform any operation on the climbing hold 10, such as gripping, rotating, and taking it out of and seating it in the section 7 of the climbing wall module 2 or the hold storage module 3.

[0037] The mounting of the climbing holds 10 into the compartments of the climbing wall module 2 and the climbing hold storage module 3 can be carried out by various means. In one embodiment, recesses 16 exist in the partitions 6 of the support structure 5 of the climbing wall module 2 and the climbing hold storage module 3. A single compartment 7 has recesses 16 in each wall formed by the partitions 6, and therefore four recesses 16 are allocated to each compartment. Alternatively, the body 8 of the climbing hold 10 has one movable projection 17 on one side wall. The recesses 16 are adapted to receive the projection 17 after the body 8 of the climbing hold 10 is placed in the compartment 7 of the climbing wall module 2 or the climbing hold storage module 3. The projection 17 enters the recess 16 of the partition 6. The projection 17 is located near the rear wall of the body 8 of the climbing hold 10 and is deployed by a spring installed inside the body 8 of the climbing hold 10. The projection 17 has an iron element at its lower portion that engages with the electromagnets of the gripping and operating arms 14A and 14B. The action of the electromagnets overcomes the spring force, and as a result the projection 17 is hidden inside the body 8 of the climbing hold 10, making it possible to insert the climbing hold 10 into or remove it from the appropriate compartment 7. Thus, in its basic position, the projection protrudes beyond the edge of the body 8 of the climbing hold 10, and when placed in the climbing wall module 2 or climbing hold storage module, it enters the recess 16. This results in successful fixation of the body 8 of the climbing hold 10 within the compartment 7, and the body 8 of the climbing hold 10 is locked in all directions of movement. The recesses 16 present on each wall of the compartment 7 allow the body 8 of the climbing hold to be locked in any position.

[0038] The shape of the spatial compartment 7 of the support structure 5 of the climbing hold storage module 3 corresponds to the shape of the compartment 7 of the support structure 5 of the climbing wall module 2. This allows the same support structure 5 to be used in both the climbing wall module 2 and the climbing hold storage module 3. Furthermore, this makes it easier to position the climbing holds 10, especially when using a Cartesian coordinate robot.

[0039] In other embodiments, the climbing wall module and the climbing hold storage module have compartments of different shapes. Specifically, the climbing hold storage module has relatively large compartments, allowing four climbing holds to be placed in a single compartment, but requiring more care. On the other hand, the climbing wall module has a compartment adapted to receive one climbing hold body.

[0040] In another embodiment, climbing walls 1A and 1B (Figure 16) have four climbing wall modules 2, and the support structures 5 of these climbing wall modules 2 are articulated to each other. This makes it possible to change the position of the individual modules of climbing walls 1A and 1B relative to each other. In climbing wall 1A, two climbing wall modules 2 are positioned at an acute angle to the remaining climbing wall modules 2, forming a climbing route with a bend, while in wall 1B, an overhanging climbing route is formed.

[0041] The Cartesian coordinate robot can work in conjunction with climbing walls 1A and 1B. To achieve this, the robot's arm is equipped with an additional hinge, allowing the hand to tilt in accordance with the incline of climbing walls 1A and 1B.

[0042] In a further embodiment, the front surface of the compartment of the support structure of the climbing wall module has a motion restraint for the body of the climbing hold, preventing the climbing hold from sliding out toward the user of the climbing wall. A particular form of such motion restraint is to provide a smaller clearance in the compartment of the climbing module on the front surface side of the wall module compared to the rear surface of the wall module. As a result, the body of the climbing hold is locked and cannot be removed from the front side of the climbing wall. Furthermore, the rear wall of the climbing hold body also has a locking flange that overlaps with the partition and similarly secures the climbing hold to prevent it from sliding out.

[0043] As described above, the climbing routes are formed by various climbing holds 10 arranged in any configuration within the matrix of section 7 of the climbing wall module 2. The arrangement of climbing routes on climbing walls 1, 1A, and 1B involves the process of seating the selected body 8 of a climbing hold 10, which has an appropriate climbing hold section 9, within the selected section 7 of the climbing wall module 2. When all sections 7 are filled with neutral climbing holds 10, and therefore climbing wall 1 has a flat front surface, climbing wall 1 can be assumed to be in a neutral state. The climbing holds 10 can be replaced by a robot moving within the work space 4. Let's look in more detail at the actions that must be performed by the Cartesian coordinate robot 11 to arrange the climbing routes on climbing walls 1, 1A, and 1B. The Cartesian coordinate robot 11 aligns itself with a selected section 7 of the climbing wall module 2 using predetermined coordinates in the two-dimensional workspace 4, and then the gripping and manipulating arm 14A grips the body 8 of the climbing hold 10, resulting in its release. In the subsequent step, the Cartesian coordinate robot 11 aligns itself with a selected section 7 of the climbing hold storage module 3, and uses a second gripping and manipulating arm 14B to grip the body 8 of the climbing hold 10 from section 7 of the hold storage module 3. Following this step, the gripping and manipulating arms 14A and 14B rotate and their positions change. The body 8 of the climbing hold 10 is then stored in section 7 of the hold storage module 3 using the gripping and manipulating arm 14A. After this step, the Cartesian coordinate robot returns to the aforementioned section 7 of the climbing wall module 2 and uses the gripping and manipulating arm 14B to store the main body 8 of the climbing hold 10 that was taken out of the climbing hold storage module 3 inside it.

[0044] The Cartesian coordinate robot 11 can be remotely controlled and connected to the internet. As a result, the placement of climbing routes can be achieved by controlling the Cartesian coordinate robot 11 from a control panel installed in the climbing wall 1, or by other types of applications and internet applications, especially mobile applications. This increases the functionality of the Cartesian coordinate robot, as it allows for the placement of climbing routes according to designs provided in a database or the user's own designs.
