[0002] PANEL ELEMENT, PANEL COMPOSITE WITH PANEL ELEMENTS AND ENCLOSURE FOR SCAFFOLDING SYSTEM

[0003] A panel element, a panel assembly with at least two panel elements and an enclosure for a scaffolding system with at least one panel element are specified.

[0004] So-called enclosure panels are known for scaffolding systems. These are attached, for example, to the outside of a scaffold, a climbing formwork or a building under construction or restoration as an enclosure for the scaffold or the building under construction or restoration. They can serve for safety as well as for visual protection and / or protection against environmental influences such as wind and sunlight. Such enclosure panels usually have a frame construction and are typically installed with screws or clamps. If platforms that can still be walked on are to be attached to the enclosure panels by means of brackets, additional indented vertical struts are usually necessary within the frame construction in order to attach the platforms next to one another to the enclosure panels.The vertical frame struts, which are directly connected to each other as is usual with frame formwork, do not allow two brackets to be attached directly next to each other. This requires additional fastening components for the attachment of platform brackets, resulting in a complex design in terms of geometry and operation. Furthermore, variable height adjustment of the platforms with changing floor heights is difficult. Therefore, a simpler design for such panels is desirable.

[0005] At least one object of certain embodiments is to specify a panel element, for example for an enclosure, in particular for a scaffolding system. Further objects of certain embodiments are to specify a panel assembly with at least two panel elements and an enclosure with at least one panel element, in particular an enclosure for a scaffolding system.

[0006] These objects are achieved by subject matter according to the independent patent claims. Advantageous embodiments and developments of the subject matter are characterized in the dependent claims and will further emerge from the following description and the drawings.

[0007] According to at least one embodiment, a panel element is specified. The panel element can, for example, be provided and designed for an enclosure, in particular for an enclosure for a scaffolding system. According to at least one further embodiment, a panel assembly with at least two panel elements is specified. According to at least one further embodiment, an enclosure for a scaffolding system with at least one panel element or at least one panel assembly is specified. The scaffolding system can have the enclosure, so that the enclosure can be part of a scaffolding system. The following description refers equally to the panel element, the panel assembly, the enclosure for the scaffolding system and the scaffolding system. To form the panel assembly, at least two panel elements are arranged next to one another so that the panel elements adjoin one another.The panel elements can preferably adjoin one another to form the panel assembly and be mechanically connected to one another. The at least two panel elements can preferably be connected to one another with at least one plug-in connector and particularly preferably with two plug-in connectors. In particular, the at least one plug-in connector can be provided and designed to mechanically and firmly connect two panel elements to one another. For this purpose, the at least one plug-in connector can have a first connection region for the mechanical connection of the plug-in connector to a first of the two panel elements and a second connection region for the mechanical connection of the plug-in connector to a second of the two panel elements. A mechanical connection can in particular mean a form-fitting connection or a force-fitting connection or a form-fitting and force-fitting connection.By means of the at least one connector, two panel elements directly adjacent to one another in the panel assembly can be mechanically connected to one another and thus fixed to one another. Particularly preferably, two panel elements are connected to one another using two similarly designed connectors. Particularly preferably, the connection between two panel elements can be released again by removing the connector(s) from at least one of the panel elements, so that the panel assembly can be disassembled into individual panel elements.

[0008] The scaffolding system can, for example, have or be a formwork system or can alternatively also be part of a formwork system. Formwork systems for erecting structures are used to produce building components, for example walls or ceilings, and are generally designed in such a way that they create a filling space for a hardenable building material, for example a concrete material. The building material can be poured into the filling space and, once it has hardened, form the desired building component. Alternatively or additionally, the scaffolding system can have or be a climbing system or can also be part of a climbing system. Climbing systems are devices that are designed to climb up building walls, for example to carry out renovation or cleaning work, or which are used in particular in building construction to erect the building walls up which the climbing system climbs.For example, during building construction, wall sections are constructed in sections. After curing, the climbing system can climb up them to continue erecting the building. The enclosure can be attached to the scaffolding system and serve, for example, as access, a walkway, and / or, with the protective functions described below, as a protection and / or safety system for construction work or other purposes.

[0009] The panel element described below and in particular the panel assembly with at least two panel elements and the enclosure can be attached, for example, to an outside side as seen from the building in order to serve as a safety system, for example as fall protection, for people on the scaffolding system. Furthermore, the panel element and in particular a panel assembly with at least two panel elements and the enclosure can also serve as visual protection and / or as protection against environmental influences, for example as weather protection, sun protection, wind protection, heat protection, cold protection and / or noise protection. Likewise, protection of the surroundings, for example from noise, can be made possible. Furthermore, the panel element and in particular a panel assembly with at least two panel elements and correspondingly the enclosure can also serve, for example, as advertising space on the scaffolding system.

[0010] According to a further embodiment, the panel element has a profile frame. The profile frame can particularly preferably have a rectangular shape. The profile frame can be formed from a plurality of frame elements. The profile frame preferably has a first horizontal frame element, a second horizontal frame element and two vertical frame elements. The profile frame is particularly preferably formed from two horizontal frame elements and two vertical frame elements which are connected to one another to form a rectangular shape. In other words, the horizontal frame elements can preferably be parallel to one another and the vertical frame elements can preferably be parallel to one another.

[0011] Each of the horizontal frame elements has a main direction of extension which runs along a horizontal direction, and each of the vertical frame elements has a main direction of extension which runs along a vertical direction. Terms such as “horizontal” and “vertical” as well as “top” and “bottom” can here and below, unless otherwise stated, particularly preferably refer to an orientation during the usual installation of one or more panel elements in the panel assembly and as part of the enclosure for the scaffolding system. The horizontal direction thus forms a transverse direction and the vertical direction a longitudinal direction or height direction. A depth direction can be defined perpendicular to the horizontal and vertical directions.

[0012] The first horizontal frame element preferably forms a lower frame member which, when installed as intended, runs horizontally in the enclosure for the scaffolding system and from which the two vertical frame elements extend vertically upwards to the second horizontal frame element, which forms an upper frame member which also runs horizontally. The two vertical frame elements accordingly form lateral frame members. The vertical frame elements are preferably arranged along the vertical direction between the first horizontal frame element and the second horizontal frame element and connected to the horizontal frame elements. Alternatively, the horizontal frame elements can also be arranged along the horizontal direction between the vertical frame elements and connected to the vertical frame elements.

[0013] According to a further embodiment, each of the vertical frame elements has a vertical end region on both sides along the vertical direction and preferably terminates with a vertical end region on both sides along the vertical direction. The horizontal frame elements can each have a horizontal end region on both sides along the horizontal direction and particularly preferably terminate with a horizontal end region on both sides along the horizontal direction.

[0014] Furthermore, each of the vertical end regions can preferably rest on a surface of one of the horizontal frame elements that is formed perpendicular to the vertical direction. The vertical frame elements are fastened to each of the horizontal frame elements, preferably by means of the vertical end regions. Alternatively, each of the horizontal end regions can rest on a surface of one of the vertical frame elements that is formed perpendicular to the horizontal direction. In this case, the horizontal frame elements are fastened to each of the vertical frame elements, preferably by means of the horizontal end regions. A preferably permanent fastening can preferably comprise or be a weld and / or riveting. Furthermore, the horizontal frame elements and the vertical frame elements can also be connected to one another by means of screw connections and / or bolts.

[0015] In particular, the enclosure for the scaffolding system can have at least one support which is fastened, for example, to a building, a part of a building or to the scaffolding system. Furthermore, the support can also be part of the scaffolding system. For example, the support can be a vertical support. The panel element and preferably the panel assembly can be fastened directly or indirectly to the support, for example via one or more struts. These can be screwed or bolted struts, for example, which can be fastened, for example, directly to a profile frame of one or more panel elements and to a support of the enclosure of the scaffolding system.

[0016] Each of the horizontal frame elements can be a profile element which can be selected from a hollow profile such as a square profile, a U-profile, a Z-profile, an L-profile, an I-profile or a combination of several identical or different named or other profile types. Preferably, each of the horizontal frame elements has or is a U-profile or a square profile. Particularly preferably, each of the horizontal frame elements can additionally have an I-profile or an L-profile which can border on the U-profile or the square profile along the vertical direction. In particular, in each of the horizontal frame elements the U-profile or the square profile can be formed integrally with the I-profile or the L-profile.

[0017] In particular, the horizontal frame elements can be provided with mounting holes designed and configured to accommodate securing elements. Here and below, a securing element can be selected, in particular, from bolts, screws, rivets, and pins.

[0018] As described above, the at least one plug-in connector for forming a panel assembly can be provided and configured to mechanically connect a horizontal frame element of one panel element to a horizontal frame element of another panel element. Through fastening openings in the plug-in connector, the connector can be fixed to the horizontal frame elements by means of securing elements that can be inserted through mounting holes in the horizontal frame elements and through the fastening openings, whereby the mechanical connection to the panel elements and thus also between the panel elements can be effected. In particular, each of the horizontal frame elements can have a plurality of mounting holes that are arranged along the horizontal direction. The mounting holes can each be formed in two opposite surfaces of a horizontal frame element that are arranged perpendicular to the vertical direction.For example, the opposing surfaces can be surfaces of a U-profile, an L-profile and an I-profile, two L-profiles or two I-profiles, or preferably a square profile. The mounting holes can preferably be arranged at equal intervals along the horizontal direction. Furthermore, the mounting holes can also be arranged irregularly.

[0019] Each of the vertical frame elements can be a profile element which can be selected from a hollow profile such as a square profile, a U-profile, a Z-profile, an L-profile, an I-profile or a combination of several identical or different profile types. In particular, each of the vertical frame elements has at least one vertical frame part which is preferably strip-shaped and which extends from the first to the second horizontal frame element, i.e. like the vertical frame element as a whole has a main direction of extension along the vertical direction. The vertical frame part is preferably strip-shaped and in particular flat and furthermore preferably extends along a plane perpendicular to the horizontal direction. In other words, the strip-shaped vertical frame part of each of the vertical frame elements is aligned such that the two main surfaces are perpendicular to the horizontal direction.If the profile elements of the vertical frame elements each consist only of the vertical frame part, the vertical frame elements are preferably designed as I-profiles.

[0020] Furthermore, each of the vertical frame elements can have a first

[0021] Leg part which is preferably strip-shaped and in particular flat and borders on the vertical frame part in a direction along the depth direction. The first leg part borders on the vertical frame part via an edge which extends along the vertical direction. The vertical frame part and the first leg part can preferably border on one another at an angle, particularly preferably at an angle of 90 °. Accordingly, the first leg part of each of the vertical frame elements can extend along a plane perpendicular to the depth direction. If the profile elements of the vertical frame elements are each formed from the vertical frame part and the first leg part, the vertical frame elements are preferably designed as L-profiles.

[0022] Furthermore, each of the vertical frame elements can have a second leg part, which is preferably strip-shaped and in particular flat and borders on the vertical frame part in a direction along the depth direction opposite the first leg part. The vertical frame part and the second leg part can preferably border one another at an angle. The first leg part and the second leg part border on two sides of the vertical frame part that are opposite one another along the depth direction via edges that extend along the vertical direction. For example, the vertical frame part and the second leg part can enclose an acute, right or obtuse angle, whereby an angle of 90 ° can be preferred. Accordingly, the second leg part of each of the vertical frame elements can extend along a plane that is perpendicular to the depth direction.If the profile elements of the vertical frame elements are each formed from the vertical frame part, the first leg part, and the second leg part, the vertical frame elements are preferably designed as Z-profiles or as U-profiles. The first and second leg parts can preferably be parallel to one another. Alternatively, the first and second leg parts can also be non-parallel to one another, depending on the angle that the second leg part forms with the vertical frame part.

[0023] The vertical frame elements can therefore preferably have one or more strip-shaped parts, one of which is the vertical frame part. The strip-shaped part or parts have a main direction of extension along the vertical direction when mounted in the profile frame. The strip-shaped part or parts additional to the vertical frame part can be the first leg part or the first and second leg parts. In the case of one or two leg parts, the strip-shaped parts of the vertical frame elements are arranged at an angle to one another, particularly preferably perpendicular to one another. In the case of a Z-profile, the first and second leg parts border on the vertical frame part in such a way that they extend in opposite directions along the horizontal direction, whereby the first and second leg parts do not necessarily have to be parallel.In this case, the first leg parts of the vertical frame elements can preferably extend away from one another along the horizontal direction, while the second leg parts of the vertical frame elements can extend towards one another along the horizontal direction. In the case of a U-profile, the first and second leg parts border on the vertical frame part in such a way that they extend in the same direction along the horizontal direction, whereby the first and second leg parts do not necessarily have to be parallel. The first leg parts of the vertical frame elements can preferably extend away from one another along the horizontal direction and in this case the second leg parts of the vertical frame elements can also extend away from one another along the horizontal direction.

[0024] According to a further embodiment, the vertical frame part of each of the vertical frame elements has a plurality of mounting holes arranged along the vertical direction. Particularly preferably, the mounting holes are arranged at equal spacing. Furthermore, the mounting holes can also be arranged irregularly. Like the mounting holes of the horizontal frame elements, the mounting holes of the vertical frame elements can also be provided and configured to receive securing elements.

[0025] In particular, the vertical frame elements can be arranged symmetrically to one another with respect to a plane of symmetry perpendicular to the horizontal direction. In particular, the vertical frame elements can thus be of identical design and arranged mirror-symmetrically in the profile frame with respect to a plane of symmetry perpendicular to the horizontal direction. Furthermore, the horizontal frame elements can be designed and arranged symmetrically to a plane of symmetry perpendicular to the vertical direction. As a result, the profile frame can be designed such that it merges into itself when rotated by 180° about a rotation axis along the depth direction, which can result in easier installation of the panel element.

[0026] According to a further embodiment, each of the vertical frame elements is flush with the horizontal frame elements in the horizontal direction. This can also mean, in particular, that the first leg part of each of the vertical frame elements is flush with the horizontal frame elements along the horizontal direction. The first leg part of each of the vertical frame elements is preferably arranged flush with the closer horizontal end region of each of the horizontal frame elements.

[0027] According to a further embodiment, the vertical frame part of each of the vertical frame elements is arranged set back along the horizontal direction from the respective closer horizontal end region. This makes it possible to ensure that, when panel elements are arranged adjacent to one another in a panel assembly, a distance exists between the vertical frame parts of the two immediately adjacent vertical frame elements, so that additional components, such as the hinge plates of the console elements described below, can be arranged between these vertical frame parts.

[0028] Furthermore, the horizontal frame elements and the vertical frame elements can be flush with one another on both sides along the depth direction. For example, on one side, the horizontal frame elements and the first leg parts of the vertical frame elements can be flush along the depth direction. Furthermore, depending on the design of the vertical frame elements, on the other side, the horizontal frame elements and, if present, the second leg parts of the vertical frame elements can be flush along the depth direction.

[0029] According to a further embodiment, the panel element has a plate that is attached to the profile frame. The plate can be provided for covering and can comprise a material selected from wood, metal, or plastic. For example, the plate can be a wooden plate, a metal plate, or a plastic plate, or for example a composite plate comprising several of the materials mentioned. The plate can be provided with or without openings. For example, the plate can comprise or be a so-called perforated plate, which can be made of or with metal. Furthermore, the plate can comprise or be expanded metal. Furthermore, a perforated plate-like or expanded metal-like design in conjunction with another material such as wood or plastic is possible. In particular, the plate can bear against the vertical frame elements. For example, the plate can bear against the first leg part of each of the vertical frame elements.Furthermore, the plate can be attached to the vertical frame elements. For example, the plate can be attached to the first leg of each of the vertical frame elements. For example, the plate can be attached by bolts, rivets, or screws. Furthermore, permanent connections such as welding are also possible.

[0030] According to a further embodiment, the panel element has at least one strut which extends from one frame element to an opposite frame element. For example, the panel element can have at least one cross strut which extends from one of the two vertical frame elements to the other of the two vertical frame elements. The at least one cross strut thus preferably extends along the horizontal direction between the vertical frame elements. Particularly preferably, fastening openings are provided in the vertical frame elements, into which openings the at least one cross strut is inserted. Furthermore, the panel element can have at least one longitudinal strut which extends from one of the two horizontal frame elements to the other of the two horizontal frame elements. The at least one longitudinal strut thus preferably extends along the vertical direction between the horizontal frame elements.Particularly preferably, fastening openings are provided in the horizontal frame elements, into which the at least one longitudinal strut is inserted.

[0031] Furthermore, an insert element can be attached to the profile frame, with which the desired optical effects and / or protective effects such as visual protection and / or protection of workers from environmental influences such as sunlight, noise, heat, cold, wind, etc. and / or protection of the surroundings from noise can be achieved. The insert element can, for example, comprise a material selected from wood, metal, or plastic. For example, the insert element can be a wooden panel, a metal panel, or a plastic panel, or a composite panel comprising several of the materials mentioned. The insert element can be designed as a flat panel or, for example, as a corrugated panel.The insert element can preferably be fastened to the at least one strut and preferably by means of a plurality of struts, for example to at least one cross strut and particularly preferably to a plurality of cross struts arranged at a distance from one another in the vertical direction. In particular, the insert element can be arranged in the profile frame between the at least one cross strut and the panel. The insert element can furthermore adjoin the vertical frame part of each of the vertical frame elements and the horizontal frame elements and thus cover a rectangular area enclosed by the horizontal frame elements and the vertical frame elements.

[0032] According to a further embodiment, at least one foldable console element is fastened to the profile frame. In particular, the console element can be fastened to a vertical frame element. Particularly preferably, a folding platform is fastened to the profile frame. The folding platform can have two foldable console elements and a floor element which is fastened to the console elements. In particular, one of the foldable console elements can be fastened to each of the two vertical frame elements. In its unfolded state, the folding platform can serve, for example, as a stage, i.e. as a platform for workers.

[0033] Particularly preferably, a console element can be fastened to each of the vertical frame elements, in particular to the vertical frame part of the vertical frame elements, by means of a securing element. For this purpose, each of the console elements can have a hinge element which is rotatably fastened in a mounting hole in the vertical frame part of one of the vertical frame elements by means of a securing element. For this purpose, the hinge elements can have hinge openings for the security elements. This makes it possible to achieve easy assembly and disassembly and a flexible height arrangement independent of other panel elements in a panel assembly. Each of the hinge elements can in particular have two hinge plates which together partially encompass the respective vertical frame element.This can mean, in particular, that the vertical frame part of a vertical frame element is arranged horizontally between the two hinge plates of a console element. Furthermore, the respective hinge element of the console elements can be designed to be firmly connected to a securing element. In particular, the respective hinge element of the console elements can have a hinge plate that is firmly connected to a securing element, preferably a bolt or a screw, for example by welding or a one-piece construction.Particularly preferably, the securing elements of the hinge elements of the two console elements point in the same direction, so that the folding platform can be suspended from one side into the vertical frame elements, i.e., into mounting holes in the vertical frame parts of the vertical frame elements, and can be rotatably mounted, and secured by means of securing devices such as spring locks or nuts. In other words, the securing elements can be inserted into the mounting holes of the vertical frame elements from one side, like the hinges of a door, and secured on the other side.

[0034] Furthermore, each of the console elements can have a support surface on which the floor element is arranged. For example, the floor element can be screwed to the support surfaces. In addition, the floor element can have slot-shaped openings with which the floor element is pushed onto connecting areas of the console elements, wherein in each of the console elements the connecting area is arranged between the hinge element and the support surface. Furthermore, each of the console elements can have a support surface which, when the floor element is in an unfolded position, rests on the vertical frame element, for example on a second leg part of a vertical frame element. In this way, the folding platform can be supported on the vertical frame elements and, if present, on the second leg parts of the vertical frame elements in the unfolded state.

[0035] In a folded position, the folding platform can be temporarily secured. For example, the floor element can be secured in the folded position, such as by a rope attached to a horizontal frame element. Furthermore, a clamp can also be provided. Alternatively or additionally, the hinge element of each console element can have securing openings with which the hinge elements and thus the folding platform can be fixed in the folded position.

[0036] In the panel assembly, the at least two panel elements can be directly adjacent to one another in the horizontal direction and connected to one another. In particular, the first leg part of a vertical frame element of one of the two panel elements and the first leg part of a vertical frame element of the other of the two panel elements can be directly adjacent to one another. Because the vertical frame parts of the vertical frame elements are set back horizontally from the ends of the horizontal frame elements along the horizontal direction, as described above, it is possible to attach adjacent folding platforms directly to the vertical frame elements of the adjacent panel elements by means of the hinge elements. The vertical frame elements thus form functional vertical edge struts which are suitable for fastening two adjacent platform consoles directly to two adjacent panel elements.Further advantages, advantageous embodiments and further developments emerge from the exemplary embodiments described below in conjunction with the figures.

[0038] Figures 2A to 2D show schematic representations of a panel element according to a further embodiment, Figures 3A to 4B show schematic representations of a panel element according to further embodiments, Figures 5A to 5C show schematic representations of a panel assembly according to a further embodiment,

[0039] Figures 6A to 6C show schematic representations of a panel element according to further embodiments,

[0041] In the exemplary embodiments and figures, identical, similar, or similarly acting elements may be provided with the same reference numerals. The illustrated elements and their relative sizes are not to be considered true to scale; rather, individual elements, such as layers, components, structural elements, and regions, may be exaggerated for clarity and / or clarity.

[0042] Figure 1 shows a schematic representation of a panel assembly 200 according to one exemplary embodiment. The panel assembly 200 can in particular be part of an enclosure for a scaffolding system, which is explained further below in connection with some exemplary embodiments. In particular, the panel assembly 200 has at least two panel elements 100 which can be connected to one another by means of at least one plug connector 30. For the sake of clarity, Figure 1 shows the panel elements 100 and the plug connector 30 in a state in which they are not yet mechanically connected to one another, the operative connection between the panel elements 100 and the plug connector 30 being indicated by the double arrows.The connector 30 has, in particular, a first connection region 31 for mechanically connecting the connector 30 to a first of the two panel elements 100 and a second connection region 32 for mechanically connecting the connector 30 to a second of the two panel elements 10. A mechanical connection can, in particular, mean a positive-locking and a force-locking connection.

[0043] Each of the panel elements 100 has a profile frame 1, as described in detail below. The profile frame 1 of each of the panel elements 100 can preferably have a rectangular shape and be formed from a plurality of frame elements, particularly preferably from two horizontal frame elements 10 and two vertical frame elements 20, which are connected to one another to form the rectangular shape. Terms such as "horizontal" and "vertical" as well as "top" and "bottom" refer here and below, unless otherwise stated, to the installation of the panel elements 100 according to use in the panel assembly 200 and as part of the enclosure for a scaffolding system. Accordingly, in some figures the horizontal direction 91 and the vertical direction 92 are indicated in order to indicate a usage-appropriate orientation of panel elements.In addition, a depth direction 93 may be indicated in the following figures, which is perpendicular to the horizontal direction 91 and perpendicular to the vertical direction 92.

[0044] The figures described below relate to particularly preferred embodiments of the panel element 100, for example with respect to the profile frame 1 and the horizontal frame elements 10 and the vertical frame elements 20. As an alternative to the described embodiments, the panel element 100 may also have additional or other features according to the description in the general part, even if these are not explicitly shown or described below.

[0045] Figures 2A to 2D show schematic representations of different views of a panel element 100 according to an exemplary embodiment. Figure 2A shows a three-dimensional view of the panel element 100. Figures 2B, 2C, and 2D show cutaway views of parts of the panel element 100. The following description refers equally to Figures 2A to 2D.

[0046] The panel element 100 has, as previously described, a profile frame 1 which is formed by two horizontal frame elements 10 and two vertical frame elements 20 which are connected to one another to form a rectangular shape. Each of the horizontal frame elements 10 has a main extension direction which runs along the horizontal direction 91. Each of the vertical frame elements 20 has a main extension direction which runs along the vertical direction 92. As previously described, a depth direction 93 is defined perpendicular to the horizontal and vertical directions 91, 92.A first of the horizontal frame elements 10 forms a lower frame member, which runs horizontally when the panel element 100 is installed as intended in an enclosure for a scaffolding system, and from which the two vertical frame elements 20 extend vertically upward to the second of the horizontal frame elements 10, which forms an upper frame member that also runs horizontally. The two vertical frame elements 20 form corresponding lateral frame members.

[0047] The vertical frame elements 20 are, as can be seen for example in Figures 2C and 2D, preferably arranged along the vertical direction between the lower first horizontal frame element 10 and the upper second horizontal frame element 10. The horizontal frame elements 10 have mutually facing surfaces 14 on which the vertical frame elements 20 stand. The vertical frame elements 20 in particular have vertical end regions 25 with which each of the vertical frame elements 20 terminates on both sides along the vertical direction 92 and which are connected to the horizontal frame elements 10. For example, the frame elements can be permanently connected to one another by welding, riveting or screwing or a combination thereof. Thus, each of the vertical end regions 25 rests on a surface 14 of one of the horizontal frame elements 10 that is formed perpendicular to the vertical direction 92.Alternatively, the horizontal frame elements 10 can also be arranged along the horizontal direction 91 between the vertical frame elements 20. Each of the horizontal frame elements 10 is preferably a profile element, which can be selected from a hollow profile such as a square profile, a U-profile, a Z-profile, an L-profile, an I-profile or a combination of several of the same or different profile types. In the exemplary embodiment shown, the horizontal frame elements 10 are designed as hollow profiles, in particular as square profiles 11, as can be seen in particular in Figures 2C and 2D. Alternatively, the horizontal frame elements 10 can also be designed, for example, as U-profiles or combinations of I-profiles and L-profiles, wherein the horizontal frame elements 10 preferably have the mutually facing surfaces 14 regardless of the profile type.

[0048] Furthermore, the horizontal frame elements 10 have mounting holes which are provided and configured to receive securing elements such as bolts, screws, rivets and / or pins. In particular, the horizontal frame elements 10 can be designed so that plug-in connectors 30, as described in connection with Figure 1, can be inserted and / or mounted externally in order to connect panel elements 100 to form a panel assembly 200. Through fastening openings in the plug-in connectors, the latter can be fixed to the horizontal frame elements 10 by means of securing elements which can be inserted through mounting holes 18 of the horizontal frame elements 10 and through the fastening openings, whereby the mechanical connection to the panel elements 100 and thus also between the panel elements 100 can be effected.As can be seen in Figures 2C and 2D, the horizontal frame elements 10 have horizontal end regions 15 with which the horizontal frame elements 10 terminate on both sides along the horizontal direction 91 and in which recesses 19 are formed which are provided and designed so that a part of a plug-in connector can engage in order to achieve a play-free fastening in the horizontal frame element 10 together with a securing element.

[0049] In particular, as shown, each of the horizontal frame elements 10 can have a plurality of mounting holes 18 which are arranged along the horizontal direction 91. The mounting holes 18 can preferably each be formed in two opposing surfaces of a horizontal frame element 10 which are arranged perpendicular to the vertical direction 92. For example, the opposing surfaces can be surfaces of a U-profile, an L-profile and an I-profile, of two L-profiles or two I-profiles or preferably, as in the present embodiment of Figures 2A to 2D, a square profile 11. The mounting holes 18 can preferably be arranged at equal distances along the horizontal direction 91. Alternatively, the mounting holes 18 can also be arranged unevenly, for example in groups.

[0050] The vertical frame elements 20 are, as shown in detail in Figure 2B, preferably designed as Z-profiles 21. Each of the Z-profiles 21 and thus each of the vertical frame elements 20 has three strip-shaped parts 22, 23, 24 which, in a state when the panel element 100 and thus the profile frame 1 is mounted as intended, have a main direction of extension along the vertical direction 92. In a direction of view of the Z-profiles 21 along the vertical direction 92, i.e. along the main direction of extension of the Z-profiles, the strip-shaped parts 22, 23, 24 of each vertical frame element 20 are arranged next to one another and at an angle to one another, particularly preferably perpendicular to one another. In particular, each of the Z-profiles 21 may have a vertical frame part 22 which is formed by one of the strip-shaped parts.A first leg part 23 and a second leg part 24, which are formed by the two other strip-shaped parts, are arranged at an angle on the sides of the vertical frame part that are opposite one another along the depth direction 93. The vertical frame part 22, the first leg part 23 and the second leg part 24 are preferably each flat. The first and second leg parts 23, 24 thus border on two sides of the vertical frame part 22 that are opposite one another along the depth direction 93 via edges that run along the vertical direction 92 and preferably each form an angle of 90° with the vertical frame part 22. In particular, the first and second leg parts 23, 24 border on the vertical frame part 22 in such a way that they extend in opposite directions along the horizontal direction 91.In other words, the first leg part 23 of one vertical frame element 20 extends along the horizontal direction 91 away from the other vertical frame element 20, while the second leg part 24 of one vertical frame element 20 extends along the horizontal direction 91 towards the other vertical frame element 20. When the panel element 100 is mounted in an enclosure for a scaffolding system, the vertical frame part 22 thus preferably extends along a plane perpendicular to the horizontal direction 91, and the two leg parts 23, 24 extend along a respective plane perpendicular to the depth direction 93 and are formed parallel to one another.

[0051] The first leg parts 23 of the vertical frame elements 20 extend away from one another along the horizontal direction 91, while the second leg parts 24 of the vertical frame elements 20 extend towards one another along the horizontal direction 91. In particular, the vertical frame elements 20 are arranged symmetrically to one another with respect to a plane of symmetry perpendicular to the horizontal direction 91 and are of identical design. The vertical frame elements 20 are thus arranged with mirror symmetry in the profile frame 1. Furthermore, the horizontal frame elements 10 are also designed and arranged symmetrically to a plane of symmetry perpendicular to the vertical direction 92 and are of identical design, so that the horizontal frame elements 10 are also arranged with mirror symmetry in the profile frame 1.The profile frame 1 is thus simultaneously symmetrical to the two planes of symmetry, which are perpendicular to the horizontal direction 91 and perpendicular to the vertical direction 92. As a result, the profile frame is designed such that it merges into itself upon rotation of 180° about a rotation axis along the depth direction 93, which can result in easier installation of the panel element 100.

[0052] The vertical frame part 22 of each of the vertical frame elements 20 has a plurality of mounting holes 28 which are arranged along the vertical direction 92. Particularly preferably, the mounting holes 28 are arranged at equal distances, as shown. Alternatively, the mounting holes 28 can also be irregularly spaced. Like the mounting holes 18 of the horizontal frame elements 10, the mounting holes 28 of the vertical frame elements 20 can also be provided and configured to receive securing elements. The vertical frame elements 20 additionally have fastening openings 29 into which cross struts 4 can engage in order to fasten an insert element 3 in the profile frame 1 on the plate 2, as shown in conjunction with Figures 4A and 4B.

[0053] Each of the vertical frame elements 20 ends flush with the horizontal frame elements 10 in the horizontal direction 91. This means that the first leg part 23 of each of the vertical frame elements 20 ends flush with the horizontal frame elements 10 along the horizontal direction 91, as can be seen, for example, in Figure 2D. The first leg part 23 of each of the vertical frame elements 20 is thus arranged flush with the respectively closer horizontal end region 15 of each of the horizontal frame elements 10. The vertical frame part 22 of each of the vertical frame elements 20 is therefore arranged set back from the respectively closer horizontal end region 15 along the horizontal direction 91, as can be seen in particular in Figure 2D.

[0054] Furthermore, the horizontal frame elements 10 and the vertical frame elements 20 can be flush with one another on both sides along the depth direction 93, as can also be seen in particular in Figure 2D. Thus, on one side along the depth direction 93, the horizontal frame elements 10 and the first leg parts 23 of the vertical frame elements 20 can be flush, and on the other side along the depth direction 93, the horizontal frame elements 10 and the second leg parts 24 of the vertical frame elements 20 can be flush. As an alternative to the embodiment shown, in the vertical frame elements 20, for example, the second leg part 24 can enclose an angle other than 90° with the vertical frame part 22 and thus an acute or obtuse angle.Furthermore, the first and second leg parts 23, 24 can extend, for example, in the same direction along the horizontal direction 91 away from the vertical frame part 22, so that the vertical frame elements 20 can be designed as U-profiles. In this case, the second leg part 24 is particularly preferably arranged set back along the horizontal direction 91 from the respectively closer horizontal end region 15. This can mean that the second leg part 24 is respectively shorter and thus narrower than the first leg part 24 and / or that the second leg part 24 encloses a sharp angle with the vertical frame part 22 and thus runs obliquely over the surfaces 14 of the horizontal frame elements 10. In addition, the vertical frame elements 20 can, for example, also have only the vertical frame part 22 and the first leg part 23, so that the vertical frame elements 20 can be designed as L-profiles.

[0055] As shown in Figures 3A and 3B, which correspond to the views of Figures 2C and 2D, using a further exemplary embodiment, the horizontal frame elements 10 can, for example, also comprise a combination of a square profile 11 with an L-profile 12. Other combinations of profiles are also possible.

[0056] 4A and 4B show a further exemplary embodiment of the panel element 100 in a three-dimensional overall view in Figure 4A and in a three-dimensional partial view in Figure 4B, in which a plate 2 is mounted on the profile frame 1, for example by screwing or riveting, which plate can comprise or be, for example, a metal plate, a plastic plate or preferably a perforated sheet. In particular, the plate 2 can, as can be seen in Figure 4B, bear against the first leg part 23 of each of the vertical frame elements 20. Furthermore, the plate 2 can preferably be fastened to the first leg part 23 of each of the vertical frame elements 20, for example by riveting or screwing. Alternatively or additionally, the plate 2 can also be fastened to the horizontal frame elements 10.

[0057] Figures 5A to 5C show a three-dimensional view and two associated detail views of a panel assembly 200 comprising two panel elements 100 that are connected to one another by two connectors 30. In the illustrated embodiment, the panel elements 100 comprise horizontal frame elements 10, as described in connection with Figures 3A and 3B.

[0058] In particular, Figures 5A and 5B show the panel assembly 200 in a state during assembly, in which the connectors 30 have already been pushed into the horizontal frame elements 10 of a first panel element 100 and are fixed by means of securing elements 102 in the form of bolts and secured by means of spring locks 103, as can be seen in Figures 5A and 5B. The second panel element 100 is in the moment before being pushed onto the two connectors 30, i.e. in the moment before the connectors 30 are pushed into the

[0059] Horizontal frame elements 10 of the second panel element 100 are shown, as indicated by the sliding direction 94 in Figure 5A. The plug-in connectors 30 enable a flat panel element arrangement. By means of conically shaped securing elements 102, such as conically shaped bolts, when these are inserted into fastening openings of the plug-in connectors 30 and into the mounting holes 18 of the horizontal frame elements 10 of the profile frame 1 of the panel elements 100, a pulling movement of the panel elements 100 with the recesses 19 to stop elements 330 of the plug-in connectors 30 can be achieved. The shape of the stop elements 330 of the plug-in connectors 30 together with the correspondingly shaped recesses 19 in the profile frame 1 of the panel elements 100 enables a positive connection after assembly without play.The panel assembly 200 can be expanded accordingly by means of further plug-in connectors 30, which in Figure 5A are already shown mounted on the second panel element 100, and further panel elements 100. As can be seen in Figure 5C, the first leg parts 23 of the immediately adjacent vertical frame elements 20 of the two panel elements 100 border directly on one another after the panel elements 100 have been joined together by the plug-in connectors 30, so that the preferred edge profile design of the vertical frame elements 20 shown enables a seamless connection of the panel elements 100 to one another. The adjacent vertical frame parts 22 of the two panel elements 100, on the other hand, are arranged at a distance from one another because they are set back with regard to the horizontal end regions 15 of the horizontal frame elements 10, which is advantageous in connection with the following exemplary embodiments.Figure 6A shows a detail view of a panel element 100 according to a further exemplary embodiment, which additionally has a folding platform 5 that is fastened to the profile frame 1 and has two foldable console elements 50 and a floor element 59 that is fastened to the console elements 50. For better understanding, Figure 6B shows a detail thereof without the installed floor element 59. The following description refers equally to Figures 6A and 6B.

[0060] One of the foldable console elements 50 is fastened to each of the two vertical frame elements 20. Particularly preferably, each of the console elements 50 can be fastened to the vertical frame part 22 of a vertical frame element 20 by means of a securing element 102, for example a bolt described in connection with the previous exemplary embodiment. For this purpose, each of the console elements 50 has a hinge element 51 which is rotatably fastened in a mounting hole 28 of the vertical frame part 22 of one of the vertical frame elements 20 by means of a securing element 102. For this purpose, the hinge elements 51 have hinge openings 57 for the safety elements 102. This makes it possible to easily assemble and disassemble and to arrange the panel assembly flexibly in terms of height, independent of other panel elements in a panel assembly.The securing elements 102 thus form vertical articulation points in the hinge openings 57 and the mounting holes 28, which simultaneously serve for fastening to the vertical frame elements 20.

[0061] Each of the hinge elements 51 can in particular have two hinge plates 52 with the hinge openings 57, which together partially encompass the respective vertical frame element 20. This can in particular mean that the

[0062] Vertical frame part 22 of a vertical frame element 20 in the horizontal direction 91 between the two hinge plates

[0063] 52 of a console element 50 is arranged.

[0064] Furthermore, each of the console elements 50 has a support element 53 in the form of a cantilever with a support surface 54 on which the floor element 59 is arranged. For example, the floor element 59, which can be formed in one or more parts and can, for example, have or be one or more panels made of wood and / or plastic, can be screwed, riveted, or bolted to the support surfaces 54.

[0065] Furthermore, each of the console elements 50 has a support surface 55, which can be formed, for example, as part of the support element 53 and which, in the unfolded position of the folding platform 5 shown in Figures 6A and 6B, rests against the vertical frame element 20. In the embodiment shown, the support surfaces 55 of the console elements 50 each rest against the second leg part 24 of a vertical frame element 20. Thus, in the unfolded state, the folding platform 5 can be supported on the vertical frame elements 20 and, in the embodiment shown, in particular on the second leg parts 24 of the vertical frame elements 20.

[0066] The hinge plates 52 are, as can be seen in Figure 6B, firmly connected to the support element 53 via a connecting region 56, wherein in each of the console elements 50 the connecting region 56 is arranged as an extension of the hinge plates 52 between the hinge element 51 and the support element 53 with the support surface 54. In addition, the base element 59 can have slot-shaped openings 591 with which the base element 59 is pushed onto the connecting regions 56 of the console elements 50. As a result, the base element 59 can project beyond the hinge elements 51 in the horizontal direction 91 and, in particular, can end flush with the horizontal frame elements 10 and with the first leg parts 23 of the vertical frame elements 20 in the horizontal direction 91.

[0067] In a folded position, the folding platform 5 can be temporarily secured. For this purpose, the hinge elements 51 in the hinge plates 52 can have securing openings 58, with which the hinge elements 51 and thus the folding platform 5 can be fixed in the folded position by means of additional securing elements 102 in mounting holes 28 of the vertical frame elements 20. For example, the floor element can also be temporarily secured in a folded position by means of a rope, which is attached, for example, to a horizontal frame element 10. Furthermore, a clamp can also be provided.

[0068] As an alternative to the embodiment shown, the hinge elements 51 of the console elements 50 can be designed so as to be firmly connected to a securing element 102, as is shown in a detail view of a further embodiment in Figure 6C corresponding to Figure 6B. In particular, the hinge element 51 of each of the console elements 50 can have precisely one hinge plate 52 which is firmly connected to a securing element 102, for example by welding or a one-piece design. Particularly preferably, the securing elements 102 of the hinge elements 51 of the two console elements 50 point in the same direction, so that the folding platform 5 can be suspended from one side into the vertical frame elements 20, i.e. in mounting holes 28 of the vertical frame parts 22 of the vertical frame elements 20, and can be rotatably mounted and secured by securing means such as spring locks or nuts.In other words, the securing elements 102 in the hinge plates 52 can be inserted into the mounting holes 28 of the vertical frame elements 20 from one side, like the hinges of a door, and secured on the other side.

[0069] In Figures 7A and 7B, views corresponding to Figures 6A and 6B, sections of a panel assembly 200 with two panel elements 100 according to the previous embodiment are shown.

[0070] In the panel assembly 200, the at least two panel elements 100 are connected to one another directly adjacent to one another in the horizontal direction, as described in connection with Figures 5A to 5C. Because the vertical frame parts 22 of the vertical frame elements 20 are set back from the ends of the horizontal frame elements 10 along the horizontal direction 91, as described above, it is possible to attach adjacent folding platforms 5 directly to the vertical frame elements 20 of the adjacent panel elements 100 by means of the hinge elements 51. Due to the previously described design of the folding platforms 5, these can be attached directly adjacent to one another without negatively influencing one another.

[0071] Figures 8A to 8C show a three-dimensional

[0072] overall view, a detail view and a

[0073] Exploded view of a further exemplary embodiment of a panel element 100 is shown, in which an insert element 3, which can also be referred to as an inlay, is fastened in the profile frame 1 in addition to a folding platform 5, with which insert element 3 the desired optical effects and / or protective effects can be achieved as described above in the general part. The insert element 3 can preferably be fastened with at least one cross strut 4 and particularly preferably with a plurality of cross struts 4 which are arranged at a distance from one another in the vertical direction 92. In particular, the insert element 3 can be arranged in the profile frame 1 between the at least one cross strut 4 and the panel 2. As described further above, the vertical frame part 22 of the vertical frame elements 20 has fastening openings 29 for the cross struts 4.The insert element 3 can particularly preferably adjoin the vertical frame part 22 of each of the vertical frame elements 20 and the mutually facing surfaces 14 of the horizontal frame elements 10 and thus cover the rectangular area enclosed by the horizontal frame elements 10 and the vertical frame elements 20. The installation of insert elements 3 in panel elements 100 of a panel assembly is possible without great effort, since the cross struts 4 used as fastening bars do not meet in adjacent panel elements. As an alternative to the embodiment shown, the insert element 3 can also be fastened by means of longitudinal struts which are fastened to the horizontal frame elements 10.

[0074] Figure 9A shows a three-dimensional overall view of an enclosure 1000 for a scaffolding system with a composite system 990 comprising a plurality of panel assemblies 200 arranged one above the other and connected to one another, which can have panel elements 100 as described in connection with Figures 2A to 7B and which are fastened to vertical supports 900 of the enclosure 1000. In Figure 9A, all of the folding platforms of the panel elements 100 are shown unfolded. Figure 9B shows a section of one of the panel assemblies 200 of the composite system 990 of the enclosure 1000, in which, purely by way of example, a folding platform 5 is in the folded state. For the sake of clarity, only one panel element is provided with a reference symbol in Figure 9A. The enclosure 1000 may be attached to a scaffolding system and may serve, for example, as an access, walking surface and / or a protection system and / or safety system for construction work.

[0075] The panel elements 100 allow, among other things, a simple, articulated and stable fastening of the console elements of the folding platforms 5, which are suitable for supporting loads when unfolded. In particular, as described in connection with Figures 6A to 7B, console elements and thus folding platforms 5 can be attached directly next to one another to adjacent panel elements 100 in a panel assembly 200, so that the folding platforms 5 can form a interacting system with the profile frames 1 of the panel elements 100, without the need for further components such as adapters or additional vertical struts and without any additional outlay. Furthermore, a locking option for folded folding platforms 5 can be provided as described above, which can be advantageous with regard to transport and evasive maneuvers during construction progress, for example during vertical climbing movements of the scaffolding system.

[0076] When transporting a panel assembly 200, it can be advantageous if plug-in connectors are used to connect at least some panel elements 100, which connectors enable a rotational movement of the panel elements 100 relative to one another and thus a folding of panel elements 100 onto other panel elements 100. Particularly preferably, panel elements 100 with folded-in folding platforms 5 can be folded over one another using suitable plug-in connectors in the form of hinges, so that a panel assembly 200 and in particular a composite system 990 comprising a plurality of panel assemblies 200 can be brought to a required transport width, for example. In other words, in order to maintain the transport width on a truck, for example, at least one foldable panel element 100 with attached hinges can be used in each panel assembly 200 of a composite system 990.

[0077] For example, in order to be able to transport the composite system 990 of the housing 1000 shown in Figure 9A with five panel assemblies 200 arranged one above the other and fastened to one another, the panel assemblies 200 can be designed such that hinge plug-in connectors are used between the respective outer panel element pairs along the horizontal direction 91, so that the respective outer panel elements 100 can be folded.

[0078] Figures 10A and 10B show, in a three-dimensional view and a side view, several composite systems 990 which are designed like the composite system 990 shown in Figure 9A and in which the outer panel elements are each folded as described above. The composite systems 990 folded together in this way can be stacked on top of one another using transport carriers 99 and thus transported, for example, on a truck. This enables a compact, dimensionally reduced stacking of the composite systems 990 with the folding platforms already installed and folded together.

[0079] As indicated by the arrows in Figures 10A and 10B, each of the folded composite systems 990 can be lifted directly from the stack. The composite systems 990 can then be unfolded to the working width shown in Figure 9A before or preferably after installation on the building, that is to say in particular after integration into the enclosure 1000 by installation on the vertical supports 900. In other words, the folded panel elements of the panel assemblies 200 can be unfolded again either before or after installation on the building. Particularly preferably, the panel elements 100 and subsequently also the folding platforms 5 can be unfolded to the full size of the panel assemblies 200 and thus of the composite system 990 while hanging on the building.

[0080] As described, the panel elements described here enable a complete assembly of a panel assembly and also of a composite system on the ground and particularly in the factory, as the panel assembly or the composite system only needs to be unfolded in a complete state after delivery to a construction site, without any further components of the panel assembly or the composite system having to be attached after assembly and integration into the enclosure for the scaffolding system. Each panel assembly that has been folded up due to the limited transport width of LKK can be lifted using a crane and hung on the building or the scaffolding system by integrating it into the enclosure. This means that neither intermediate storage space, which is particularly rare in inner-city areas, nor a crane lift for pre-assembly work on the construction site is necessary.

[0081] The panel element described here thus allows for simple and cost-effective production and easy handling. Furthermore, the panel element allows for quick assembly and is robust. In particular, panel elements for a panel assembly can be systematically manufactured and delivered pre-assembled in a panel assembly and also in a composite system, which is advantageous in terms of logistics.

[0082] The features and exemplary embodiments described in conjunction with the figures can be combined with one another according to further exemplary embodiments, even if not all combinations are explicitly described. Furthermore, the exemplary embodiments described in conjunction with the figures can alternatively or additionally comprise further features according to the description in the general part.

[0083] The invention is not limited to the embodiments described herein. Rather, the invention encompasses any novel feature and any combination of features, including, in particular, any combination of features in the claims, even if this feature or combination itself is not explicitly stated in the claims or embodiments.
