Description

1 TARIFF MODULAR POLYGONAL POLE SYSTEM Technical Area: The invention has 5 applications in telecommunications, defense industry, lighting and similar fields. The poles used are telescopic poles or similar; polygonal or cylindrical. The modular use of structures provides a modular solution for ensuring portability. It is related to the pole system. State of the Art: 10 Polygonal lighting poles are a system of interlocking polygonal segments forming a whole. It is a type of pole in which a pole is positioned. Polygonal poles are generally used for lighting or for decorative purposes, especially city lighting, street lighting, park lighting. It is used for lighting, such as stadium lighting. The poles are generally made of high-strength steel or alloy steel. The parts, The preferred polygon is prepared as a polygonal cross-section (hexagon, octagon, decagon, etc.). Polygons are typically manufactured using press systems. The parts... It undergoes a galvanizing process with a zinc bath. After galvanizing, directly The parts are joined together by welding and brought to the desired final shape. 20 Joining polygonal pole sections is a delicate process. After galvanizing... The joints are cleaned and inspected, and then welded using specialized welding machines. It is applied. In the known state of the art, polygonal poles, tall poles, or pole-like structures It is used in structures and telescopic configurations. Polygonal pole bodies and Welding is the manufacturing method used in joining the flanges. This method, Although it provides high strength, it also brings many challenges. Welding processes are time-consuming, especially in the production of large-scale poles, and It prolongs the production process. Therefore, labor times are very time-consuming. Source Thermal effects occurring during the process lead to deformations in the bodies. 2 This opens up, which requires additional corrections. Therefore, the source Deformations resulting from this process occur. Welded parts undergo further processing during protection treatments such as galvanizing. This requires more effort, which increases the cost. As the galvanizing process gets longer, energy and labor costs increase by 5%. All costs are increasing, especially in welded structures and large volumes. Therefore, larger vehicles and containers are needed for transportation, workshop However, it occupies more space inside. Therefore, welded manufacturing method is preferred. There are many transportation and storage problems. Since special welding methods are applied to polygonal poles, welding operations are necessary. Specialized, certified welding personnel are required. This situation concerns human resources. This creates additional difficulties and costs in resource planning and cost management. The need for certified personnel is high, and staff are on leave or sick leave. In this case, there is a high probability that the processes will be disrupted. 15 In the previous technique, as explained above, the welded manufacturing method was used. Various problems arise during the production of large poles with polygonal shafts. This is encountered. The welding process requires time-consuming labor, and this situation... It slows down the production process. Also, the thermal damage that occurs after welding... These deformations cause the geometric form of the pole to be distorted. Deformations require additional processing in the galvanizing process and increase production costs. and thus it increases. Because welded fabrication can only be performed by certified welding personnel, 25 It creates limitations in terms of workforce. In addition, welded structures are large. Because of its bulk, it requires large transport vehicles or containers to be shipped. This is necessary. This situation increases logistics costs, as well as causing significant problems in the workshop. This leads to a problem with taking up too much space. All these difficulties both slow down the production process and increase the cost of the final product. It enhances the modular bolted connection system and method developed with the invention. It aims to eliminate a large number of these problems. 3 Long-term use is not possible with welded poles, especially after production. Maintenance costs increase due to deformations caused by polygonal structures. The lifespan of these poles is short. Polygonal poles are suitable for their intended use. They carry various loads depending on the configuration. The load-bearing capacity of welded polygonal poles is also 5. It is not high. The loads on the poles are lifted upwards using polygonal poles. performing functions such as lowering or holding up for an extended period It is expected that polygonal poles will perform all these functions better. They offer a short service life and can also cause damage to the load. Various structures related to the production and construction of polygonal poles are part of the technique. It exists in its known form. For example, as used in document EP1617015 B1. In a polygonal pole system, longitudinal polygonal segments are welded together. They are fixed to each other. Additionally, they are also joined to the flange at the base by welding. The process was applied. This simple welding process naturally brings with it problems. 15 This is due to the fact that the production of both the stages and the polygonal parts takes a lot of time. and also the entire pole falling or collapsing due to the load exerted on each other by the parts This can lead to problems such as these. Also, as the direct usage time increases, the resource... Due to the load on their surfaces, the poles begin to fail to perform their function and Deformations can occur. 20 Polygonal masts are portable and can also be used in vehicle-mounted (on-board) systems. They can be used. Polygonal poles can also be transported with a telescopic structure. It also allows for higher installation in systems. Telescopic mast enclosed While in this position, additional load is placed on the welded surfaces during travel on the vehicle. 25 It can be ridden. While the telescopic function is being performed, that is, when it is directly opened and closed... The need for polygonal connection surfaces to be securely joined. It is heard. In telescopic poles with a welded polygonal structure, the stability of the pole increases by 30 as the number of stages increases. It deteriorates and its lifespan decreases. Because the welded surface is not used for a long time. It is not allowed to be used and there is rapid deformation during the operation of the stages. It is observed that, in addition to the number of steps, the purpose is at the top of the pole's tip. 4 Appropriate loads can be found. These external loads on the mast additional strength to the stages and to the welded surfaces between the parts at each stage It is implemented. Moreover, since these systems are mobile systems, they are resource-related. much more durable than a conventional coupling system, even in moving systems. A system that ensures secure usage is needed. 5 Thermal deformation, especially that which occurs during the welding process, and this situation A new modular polygonal pole, taking into account the long-term problems it creates. A system has been created to protect metal surfaces against corrosion. The galvanizing process, which provides this, plays a critical role in the production process. Pole 10 In its design, it is of great importance that the structure meets the static strength criteria. Welded polygonal poles do not have high static strength. Welded polygonal post structures are not modular, meaning the parts are smaller. Since they cannot be transported in packages, transportation is not easy. Therefore, 15 Unlike the known state of the art, it is modular, with parts that can be assembled and A system has been created that has a demountable structure. In existing welded pole systems, telescopic structures, stepped structures, and multiple Polygonal structures cannot function stably. The number of polygonal pole sections is also limited to 20. This is possible. Parts that do not hold or are not welded during the welding process. Due to this, friction occurs between the metal, and deformation happens rapidly. Unlike welded polygonal pole systems in the known state of the art a modular polygonal pole 25 providing safer and longer-lasting stability The system is explained. Purpose of the Invention: The invention is the connection of the polygonal parts of the “Modular Polygonal Pole System” (1). Connected to each other and to flanges by their elements, detachable and attachable, carrying capacity 30 It is an easy-to-assemble pole system. Modular polygonal pole. fixed, portable, vehicle-mounted, multi-stage and multi-part polygonal system (1) The poles are designed to be securely fixed and for long-term use. Also designed for long-term and safe use of modular polygonal poles. It carries. Additional reasons caused by the welded methods for the polygonal poles described above. Costs and operational challenges are leading to faster, more economical and portable solutions. 5 This has increased the need for solutions. The invention, developed to solve these problems, is based on welding. A more efficient modular system with a bolted connection system that will replace manufacturing. The production process is intended. The advantages gained through invention improve both the production process and the product. The aim is to improve portability. Firstly, by replacing welded fabrication. The use of a bolted connection system speeds up the production process and reduces labor costs. It reduces costs. It eliminates thermal deformations that occur during the welding process. This removes imperfections, which improves the geometric accuracy and quality of the product. Additionally, There is no time loss for galvanizing and other additional processes. 15 Because the invention adopts a modular design approach, the poles can be broken down into smaller parts. They are detachable, making transportation easier. This allows for large-scale shipments of poles. No transport vehicles or containers are needed. Transportation costs and Storage space requirements are significantly reduced. 20 Bolted connections eliminate the need for certified welding personnel, It increases workforce flexibility in production. At the same time, it makes fasteners more... It can be easily assembled, which allows the product to be completed more quickly. It enables it to reach the user. 25 The sealing properties provided by bolted connections increase the durability of the product. and ensures a long lifespan. This provides both economic benefits and... This improves product quality and customer satisfaction. Apart from bolted connections and fasteners, the invention also includes weldless systems. hooks, loop hooks, etc., are used for holding and securing various elements. Fasteners can be used. Additionally, polygonal parts can be secured. 6 For locking, each section of the post must have at least two pieces along its length. The lock housing can be used in this way. The lock housings are located on the surface of the pole part. It is a vertically extending ring-shaped structure with gaps. Radial sealing elements are also available externally or with parts for fastening and locking. 5 They can be used together. The invention allows for a more regular assembly of parts in polygonal poles. The aim was to create a simple and durable mechanical system that could maintain stability and prevent vibrations. Additionally, it features a demountable and highly portable polygonal pole system 10 that is intended. The invention allows for the use of equipment mounted on polygonal poles in many fields. For optimal operation, the mast shaft must be straight and free of vibrations. Its adaptability and modularity make it suitable for both transport and other needs. that is intended. The invention provides an alternative structural arrangement to the component configurations in polygonal poles. The aim is to install this. This proposed alternative is a modular polygonal pole. Thanks to its system, it is more stable, allows for longer use, and has more levels. It provides stable fastening even under heavier loads, enabling use with various applications. a mobile-friendly mechanical polygonal pole system It has been developed. Especially in polygonal telescopic masts, the raising and lowering operations are uninterrupted for 25 seconds. The aim is to do it in a way that is continuous, not gradual. Therefore... The invention enables non-discontinuous, continuous, steady ascent and descent processes. The aim is to provide access to high positions where human intervention is difficult. a polygonal pole that can rise to that height and operate stably even at these heights The aim is to create a modular system that enables this. 30 The invention allows for the construction of mobile telescopic poles that operate smoothly in off-road conditions and even on vehicles. capable of operating, supporting telescopic pole construction up to higher levels. 7 and telescopic poles that allow for the support of greater loads. The aim is a modular mast mechanism. It is also non-telescopic. In polygonal pole configurations, it is also a modular pole in vehicle-mounted, mobile systems. The system is presented. With this modular polygonal system described, a single-body system is created. In constructions, the pole must be made vertical and dismantled after use. 5 It also ensures that the processes are carried out quickly and stably, while preventing deformation. The aim is to create a structure that minimizes the possibility of such a thing happening. The invention reduces personnel and maintenance costs through a modular mast system. ease of use, cost reduction, and the possibility of adding additional loads. 10 that is intended. Due to welded pole structures in the known state of the art, there is excessive friction. and are subject to deformation. Due to their complex structures, their production is more difficult. It is costly. The poles that need to be moved have 15 damages during transportation. direct contact between parts through impact and friction effects. Wear and tear occurs in the system and at different stages. Once assembled, it cannot be disassembled. Due to the limitations imposed by the inadequately constructed structures, its usability remains restricted. These problems have been overcome with invention. In the face of all these technical problems in the known state of the art, the invention... More stable, secure grip and safety for polygonal pole systems. A new modular mast system that enables its use has been announced. Figure Description: 25 The figures of the developed modular polygonal pole system (1) are shown below. Figure 1.

Connection ports Description of the Invention: The pole bodies and flanges, which have a polygonal structure, are manufactured using bolts instead of welds. A more robust and modular structure is described by combining the components with connections. 30 Traditional, conventional manufacturing methods are applied in the current system; however, this The method involves lengthy production processes, additional labor requirements, and transportation difficulties. This leads to problems such as these. 9 By avoiding the additional processes required for inventive manufacturing, the invention increases production speed. This has enabled us to increase efficiency and respond to customer needs more quickly.

These connections are made in accordance with the relevant standards. It is constructed and provides the static strength required by the pole. In addition, bolted connection design of flanges (base flanges (3) and coupling flanges (4a)) mechanical operations such as turning and milling should be avoided as much as possible during this process. These arrangements have enabled more economical, portable and faster production processes. A solution has been developed that offers this.

In addition, the invention uses, for the first time, a connection consisting of connecting bolts (6) A modular polygonal pole will be manufactured. Rivets and special fastening devices are important mechanical fasteners. These are the elements. Finally, after fastening with connecting bolts (6), the following may occur: Sealing measures taken to prevent leaks It can be obtained. Suitable for modular use in polygon pole configurations due to technical problems. These are problems of inefficiency and instability. An alternative to the technical problem and a longer lifespan, The solution was achieved by presenting a modular polygonal pole structure. Technical The solution to the problem is to replace welded construction with bolted construction on some large poles. Eliminates the difficulties caused by sourcing processes by using a connection system. 30 The goal is to remove it. This new method and the described modular polygon pole system Connecting bolts (6) for joining the polygonal body and flanges of the poles and rivets are used. Thus, the long labor times required for welding processes, Deformations and additional galvanizing processes are eliminated. The described system, together with the connecting bolts (6), is also certified to weld. by eliminating the need for additional personnel, a faster and more efficient production process. 5 It presents. The need for large vehicles and containers for transporting the poles. it decreases because of the modular structure provided by the connecting bolts (6) and other elements. Thanks to this, the poles can be broken down into smaller, more portable parts.

In addition, the connecting bolts (6), formed by the base flange (3), the coupling flange (4a) and the connecting plates (4) Combining the system with closures (2) makes it more flexible during the design phase. by ensuring the maintenance of static strength and the necessary sealing measures. This makes it possible to obtain it. Thus, both costs have been reduced and the product's price has increased by 15%. Its quality and portability have improved.
