Description

 RETAINING WALL

The invention relates to a support element for spatial separation, in particular for fastening and stabilizing terrain jumps, in particular wall slab, with a first leg part and with a further leg part.

The invention further relates to a wall, in particular a supporting wall, from abutment against each other support elements.

The invention also relates to a method for producing a wall, in which a multiplicity of support elements consisting of two limb parts are connected to the wall in an adjacent manner.

In particular, generic support elements for spatial separation, for example for interception of terrain jumps on a slope or an embankment, are known from the prior art.

Such support elements usually consist of two leg parts, which are generally arranged at right angles to each other, wherein the two leg parts are designed in one piece. In most cases, one leg part is made longer than the other leg part, with the longer leg part providing the visible side of the support element and the shorter leg part being anchored to ground or the like, in order to set the support element tilt-proof and therefore stable. On the inside or rear side of this longer leg part, the shorter leg part then extends at right angles starting from the lower side of the longer leg part, wherein the two leg parts at least partially surround a space which is filled with bulk material, such as gravel, earth or even mortar or the like can be filled. The invention is based on the object wrap weiterzuent generic support elements or provide alternatives to known support elements.

The object of the invention is achieved by a support element for spatial separation, in particular for securing and stabilizing terrain jumps, especially wall disc, with a first leg portion and another leg portion, wherein the support element is characterized in that a leg portion of the two leg portions at least once formed curved.

Characterized in that at least one leg portion is curved, curved leg surfaces can be formed on the support member, which in particular gebo gene visible surfaces can be provided on a front of the j eweiligen support member.

In other words, in this case advantageously curved elements can be provided.

This means that even with a single support element, a curved wall or retaining wall, or one of them, can be produced. Ultimately, this can be structurally extremely simple arcuate or ge corrugated, so curved walls are produced.

The term "curved" in the context of the invention describes a pronounced curvature on the respective leg part.

The curvature preferably extends continuously over the width of the respective leg part, that is to say that the curvature preferably does not undergo any "jumps" in its course from one side cheek to that on the side cheek.

Preferably, a curvature thereby present extends from a first side cheek of a leg portion of a support member to one of the first side cheek against opposite, further side cheek this leg portion. Preferably, these side cheeks have a vertically oriented longitudinal extent; So far so are vertical side walls of the support element.

The situation is similar with regard to the side cheek surfaces of the side cheeks.

As a result, the corresponding curvature on the support element runs horizontally between these side cheeks. It is particularly advantageous, however, that even with a curved, corrugated or arcuate wall or supporting wall, which is characterized by an arrangement of several juxtaposed support elements, in particular curved support elements, between two directly juxtaposed support elements respect Lich the front and back The support elements in each case a uniformly wide-running gap is present.

In other words, that means that the gap width between two support elements both on the front side and on the rear side of the same on the one hand and on the other hand can be kept as narrow as possible.

In this way, a particularly well-functioning seal can be ensured between the individual support elements, even if the support elements are arranged side by side to form a curved, corrugated or arcuate wall or supporting wall.

In particular, the attachment of sealing adhesive tapes for bridging a like gap on the back of two adjacently placed support elements can succeed particularly safe when the gap to be bridged can be kept as narrow as possible. If the gaps are as narrow and uniform as possible on a curved wall in the sense of the invention, conventional narrow pre-fabricated adhesive tapes can continue to be used, even if the wall or supporting wall is curved. As a result, the use of material such adhesive tapes can be reduced.

The object of the invention is therefore also solved by a wall, in particular by a supporting wall, of support elements arranged in a row, the wall consisting of supporting elements being at least one of the features described or shown here. A curved wall or retaining wall can be created quickly and reliably by means of the support elements disclosed here. Especially with particularly narrow vertical columns.

This reduces the risk that material piled up against the wall or supporting wall passes through this vertical gap and can escape, for example, on the visible side of the supporting element or the wall produced thereby.

The object of the invention is also also of a support element for spatial separation, in particular for securing and stabilizing Geländesprün gene, in particular brick solved with a first leg portion and another leg portion, wherein the support element is characterized in that a thigh part of the two leg portions has a concave and / or convex shaped leg surface.

By a concave and / or convex leg surface inward, ie in the direction of the back of the support member, or to the outside, ie in the direction of the front side or visible side of the support member, curved leg parts or visible surfaces can be realized on the support element.

In particular, with such concave and / or convexly curved support elements very easily and thus create problem-free curved walls or retaining walls, if such support elements placed in a suitably juxtaposed who the. The object is additionally solved by a support element for spatial separation, in particular for fixing and Stabili Sieren of terrain jumps, in particular brick, according to a further aspect of the present invention with a first leg portion and another leg portion, wherein the support element characterized in that net, that two opposite Side cheek surfaces of at least one leg part of the two leg parts, preferably both leg parts, intersect in space at least with respect to their fictitious surface extension.

In other words, this means that these two opposite Seitenwan- genflächen a leg portion are not arranged parallel to each other, as has been the case in the prior art. Thus, even with a curved wall or support wall side cheeks or side walls of two immediately juxtaposed support elements plane arranged parallel to each other, whereby a particularly dense or intimate and thus stable connection or transition to two directly juxtaposed Stu zelemente can be generated. In particular, this reduces the risk that material that has accumulated against the support element can pass through a gap between two support elements and can escape, for example, on the visible side of the support element or the wall produced thereby.

In other words, with a curved wall, two support elements can be arranged in a particularly sealing manner in series with one another.

In this respect, it is advantageous if planes, which are respectively generated by two opposite side wall surfaces in space, intersect in space, so that these planes are also not arranged parallel to each other. This can apply both with regard to a longer longitudinal leg part and with respect to a shorter short leg partly of the support element, but also with regard to the same-length leg part, wherein as a rule the longer long side part of the support element comprises the visible side of the support element.

At this point it should be noted that significantly improved and not yet feasible design options result from the support elements on which the invention is based, in particular with regard to non-rectilinear, so curved, walls or retaining walls, which are extremely harmonious and homogeneous in the Cling to the landscape, so this is the case with straight walls or supporting elements.

This results in significantly more design options than before. Advantageously, the present support elements with at least one curved leg part can be combined in a variety of ways with conventional support elements having straight or planar support elements.

In particular, alternative design possibilities to hitherto known inner and outer corners can also be realized with the present support elements.

In order to be able to produce a curved wall or support wall in accordance with the invention without problems, it is advantageous if two opposite side cheek surfaces of at least one curved leg part of the two leg parts, preferably both leg parts, an angle a of less than 90 °, preferably of less than 60 °.

This makes it particularly clear that it is not a simp Ches rectangular Eckstützelement a wall or a support wall in the support element. Expediently, at least one leg part of the two leg parts is designed as a circular arc element, whereby a curved front side or visible side of the support element can be provided in a structurally simple manner; in contrast to plan front sides of conventional support elements.

Accordingly, it is also advantageous if at least one leg part of the two leg parts is designed as a circular arc segment.

A preferred embodiment provides that at least one leg part of the two leg parts has at least one curvature, the curvature having a radius r of more than 100 cm, preferably more than 200 cm, and less than 5000 cm, preferably less than 1000 cm.

Here, the radius is calculated r = d / 2, where d is the inner diameter of curved leg portions of fictitious to a circle assembled support elements. Such a curvature extends over the width of the respective leg part, ie from the first side cheek to the second side cheek of the support element.

Preferably, the curvature in its course from the first side cheek to the second side cheek passes through no "cracks", that is, the curvature is continuous.

Preferably, a curvature thereby present extends from a first side cheek of a leg part of a support element to one of the first side cheek against opposite, further side cheeks of this leg part.

As already mentioned, a provided in the context of the invention Stützele element is often referred to as an angle support element, support bracket or the like.

Preferably, the two leg portions of the present support member are arranged at a right angle to each other. The two leg parts can also be aligned with other angles to each other. In particular, the support element can also have the same length leg parts.

A preferred embodiment provides that the support element comprises an L-shaped base body, in particular with a longer Langschenkelteil and with a shorter short leg part.

It is understood that in addition to their actual outer dimensions, the leg parts can furthermore be designed differently, for example also in several parts, in particular with a plurality of vertically extending gaps between individual leg segments. Preferably, however, the two leg parts are integrally formed, whereby the risk is reduced that abzustützendes material penetrates through these gaps through the support members or the leg portions and exits approximately at the front or visible side of the support element.

In addition, it goes without saying that the present support element can be produced from a very wide variety of materials, in particular as a function of the particular area of use or the respective use.

If the support element made of concrete, hereby also very high loads can be supported, especially if the support element is designed to be steel-proven. Depending on this, the support element made of concrete with regard to its leg parts can be manufactured in a very simple manner almost arbitrarily curved.

The object of the invention is further solved by a method for producing an at least once curved wall, in particular a support wall bent at least once, in which a plurality of support elements consisting of two limb parts are strung together to form the at least once curved wall, so that two lateral side cheek surfaces of two directly juxtaposed support elements are arranged plane-parallel to each other. Advantageously, this allows easy to seal gaps between two support elements, in particular two in the context of the invention curved support elements, even in a ge within the meaning of the invention ge curved wall.

Furthermore, this can be made extremely appealing curved walls or retaining walls, which meet even the highest design standards.

Here, for the sake of completeness, it should be pointed out that, in the context of the present patent application, indefinite articles and indefinite numerical data such as "a .." two, etc. should as a rule be understood as at least information, ie as "at least one ... "," at least two ... ", etc., unless it is clear from the context or the specific text of a particular passage that there is meant to be" exactly one .. "exactly two ,

It should also be mentioned at this point that, in the context of the present patent application, the expression "in particular" should always be understood to mean that this expression introduces an optional, preferred feature. The term is not to be understood as "and" and not as "namely".

It is understood that features of the solutions described above or in the claims can optionally also be combined in order to implement the presently achievable advantages and effects in a cumulative manner.

Further features, effects and advantages of the present invention will be explained with reference to the appended drawing and the following description in which, by way of example, different support elements are illustrated and described, which are lined up as an example for a wall or supporting wall.

Components which in the individual figures at least substantially coincide with respect to their function, can hereby be marked with the same reference numerals characterized, wherein the components must not be quantified and explained in all figures. In the drawing show:

FIG. 1 schematically shows a plan view of first supporting elements with curved curved limb parts, which are already lined up against one another in a curved or curved wall or support wall; and

Figure 2 schematically shows a plan view of other already to an alternative multi-curved or curved wall or support wall lined up support elements with curved trained leg parts. According to the illustration according to FIG. 1, a first exemplary embodiment with a total of four support elements 1, 2, 3 and 4 is shown, which are arranged next to one another to a wall 6 or to a support wall 7 to form a row 8.

It should first be pointed out that, for the sake of clarity, features are shown and explained only by way of example on individual support elements 1 to 4. Each of the support elements 1 to 4 essentially has a first leg part 10 and a further leg part 11, wherein the leg parts 10 and 11 are exemplified only with regard to the first support element 1, but are present on every other support element.

In this respect, each of the support elements 1 to 4 has an L-shaped main body 12. In this first embodiment, the further leg portion 11 extends from the first leg portion 10 at a right angle (not numbered here) on the underside 13 of the first leg portion 10th outward.

In this respect, the further leg portion 11 of the top 14 of the first leg portion 10 is opposite. Thus, the position of this further leg part 11 relative to the first leg part 10 defines the inside or rear side 15 of the respective support element 1 to 4, at which later, when using the support elements 1 to 4, the actual material to be supported (not shown here) is available.

The inner side or rear side 15 is consequently located opposite the outer side or front side 16 of the respective support element 1 to 4, wherein on this front side 16 and the actual Gutseite or visible side 17 of the respective support element 1 to 4, which in the proper Use of the support elements 1 to 4 can be seen later also visually.

In other words, the inner side 15 and the outer side 16 are essentially separated from one another by the first leg part 10.

Thus, the support elements 1 to 4 in the sense of the wall 6 or support wall 7 in Ge use a material area 18 of a material-free area 19th

In this case, at least one of the two leg portions 10 and 11 of the support elements 1 to 3 is curved, namely the first leg portion 10. Insofern a curvature 20 extends in the direction of a first vertically extending first side cheek or side cheek surface 21 to a side cheek surface 21 directly opposite second vertically extending side cheek or Seitenwan genfläche 22nd

According to a viewing direction 23 on the visible surface 17, a curved viewing surface 24 results.

The first vertically extending side cheek surface 20 in the direction of view 23 in this case the right side cheek surface (not explicitly numbered here again) of the first leg 10, in which case the second vertically extending side cheek surface 21 accordingly embodies the left side cheek surface (not numbered here) of the first leg part 10.

The curvature 20 may be formed differently. For example, it is convex on the respective leg portion 10 from the respective inner side 15 with respect to the first support element 1, concave with respect to the second support element 2, and with respect to the third support element, is convex again. The support element 4, however, does not have such a curvature 20 with respect to its first leg portion 10, so that there the first leg 10 is rectilinear and planar.

Consequently, the first support element 1 has a concavely shaped leg surface or visible surface 24, the second support element 2 a convexly shaped thigh surface or visible surface 24, the third support element 3 again a concavely shaped thigh surface or visible surface 24, and the fourth support element 4 With regard to its first leg part 10, it has a planar leg surface or visible surface 25.

In this case, the two opposing side cheek surfaces 21 and 22 of the respective support element 1, 2 and 3 are arranged relative to one another in such a way that their fictitious surface extensions 26 and 27 have a common interface 28 in space. In other words, the first vertically extending side cheek surface 21 tensions a notional surface extension plane 26 and the second vertically extending side cheek surface 22 biases a fictitious surface extension plane 27 which intersect at the interface 28.

The interface 28 is in a concave shaped leg surface or visible surface 24 (support elements 1 and 3) in this case facing away on one of the curved visible surface 24

Accordingly, it holds with respect to the third support member 3 as well, since the first support member 1 and the third support member 3 are identical. The two vertically extending side cheek surfaces 21 and 22 or their imaginary surface extension planes 26 and 27 in this case include a longitudinal leg part angle α of less than 90 °, this longitudinal leg part angle α being 50 ° in this exemplary embodiment.

In any case, the two vertically extending side cheek surfaces 21 and 22 or their imaginary surface extension planes 26 and 27 do not run parallel to one another. Thus, such curved support members 1, 2 and 3 can be strung together without difficulty to the row 8, the respective further leg portion 11 is preferably also equipped with not parallel to each other horizontally extending Fußseitenwangenflächen 30 and 31, which in terms of further fictitious surface extensions 32 and 33 also in space at another interface 34 intersect. In this case, the two Fußwangenflächen 30 and 31 essentially include a short leg angle ß with each other, which is also smaller than 90 °.

With respect to the second support element 2, due to the viewing surface 24, which is curved exactly the other way around, the interface 28 of the respective side cheek surfaces 21 and 22 lies on the side of the curved visible surface 24. Anyway, even with the curved wall 6 or support wall 7 hinsicht Lich directly opposite vertically extending sides cheek surfaces 21 and 22 of two directly juxtaposed support elements 1 to 4 always be a particularly narrow gap 35 between the individual support elements 1 to 4 its leg portions 10. At this point it should be mentioned that the curvature of the support elements 1 to 3 with respect to the respective first leg portion 10 is formed with a radius r = 500 cm. According to the illustration according to FIG. 2, a further exemplary embodiment is shown by way of example, in which an alternative wall 106 or supporting wall 107 is shown.

In this further embodiment, a total of five support elements 101, 102, 103, 104 and 105, each with two legs share 110 and 111 shown, these support elements 101 to 105 are formed with respect to their first leg portion 110 all either concave or convex. The support elements 101 to 105 are structurally identical, in particular, with the support elements 1 to 3 already described above, so that with regard to this further exemplary embodiment reference is made to the embodiments of the first exemplary embodiment in order to avoid repetition.

Also relevant specifications, reference numerals or the like are not drawn again in this further embodiment in order to bring the design aspect of the alternative wall 106 or support wall 107 even better advantage.

However, the fact is that depending on how one arranges the individual curved support elements 1 to 3 or 101 to 105 to each other, can create very different curved walls 6 and 106 respectively.

It should be explicitly pointed out at this point that features of the solutions described above or in the claims and / or figures can optionally also be combined in order to be able to implement or achieve in particular cumulatively explained features, effects and advantages. It is understood that it is in the above-described embodiment single Lich to a first embodiment of the invention support elements or walls or retaining walls. In this respect, the embodiment of the invention is not limited to these exemplified embodiments. All disclosed in the application documents features are claimed as essential to the invention, provided that they are new individually or in combination with respect to the prior art.
