Definitions
- the invention relates to a pontoon for bridges and ferries, consisting of four collapsible and collapsible floating bodies, wherein a track panel is embedded in the outer floating bodies, which has couplings on at least one transverse side for articulation on the outer edges of the inner floating bodies.
- These track panels can be removed from the outer floating bodies by means of a mountable crane and articulated on the transverse edges of the inner floating bodies by means of simple bolt couplings in order to create a connection to a bank section.
- Their length is about a third of the total length of the pontoons and has only an auxiliary function, for example to be able to climb a pontoon from a steep bank after it has been unfolded on the water. In most cases, however, it is not possible to move the pontoons to the bank because of their draft, so that the track boards cannot be used. Special ramp sections are therefore always used to connect to the bank.
- amphibious bridges are known, which are formed from a multiplicity of amphibious vehicles swimming at a distance from one another and bridge sections arranged in between (FR-A-1 343538). These amphibious vehicles swim with their longitudinal axes parallel and at a distance from each other and have fold-out additional floating bodies on both sides that have to be spanned by the bridge sections.
- Such floating bridges are only suitable for short-term use because they bind a lot of material due to the large number of amphibious vehicles required, because a large number of amphibious vehicles are required to bridge a water body.
- the length of the bridge sections connecting them could only be limited so that they were still manageable. Pontoon floating bridges are therefore still used for floating bridges that are to bridge a body of water for a longer period of time.
- the invention is therefore based on the object of finding a solution for the ramps of floating bridges or ferries which allows such bridges and ferries to be assembled using only one type of pontoon and yet can be used for most types of bank.
- the track panels are designed as ramp parts which extend over almost the entire length of the outer floating bodies and in that the width of the ramp parts is designed and the couplings are arranged such that at least two ramp parts hinged next to one another on the inner floating bodies form a closed ramp form with the width of at least one of the inner floats.
- such pontoons can be used to assemble ramps, preferably by removing four ramp parts in each case, such as were previously only possible using special ramp sections.
- the ramps form a closed lane and can bridge about the same space as a ramp section and are therefore versatile.
- the individual ramp parts can adapt better to uneven banks than a rigid ramp section.
- a major advantage is the cost-effectiveness, because two or more such ramp parts are considerably cheaper than a separate ramp section with its complex folding mechanism.
- only one type of pontoon now needs to be built, which is cheaper for series production and maintenance.
- at least two transport vehicles are saved for the ramp sections with each floating bridge, since the ramp parts are transported in the pontoons in a space-saving manner.
- the ramp parts are also used as connections between two adjacent pontoons. This is useful if the floating bridge should only be used by a lower load class. Correspondingly, pontoons are saved and therefore do not have to be transported. In addition, a better adaptation to the distance to be bridged is possible because the ramp parts are somewhat shorter than the pontoons. Overall, the pontoon according to the invention is thus distinguished by its versatility and particular cost-effectiveness.
- the ramp part (s) have couplings on both transverse sides for connecting two pontoons with ramp parts, as described above. More appropriate the ramp parts are also designed as floating bodies.
- the ramp part (s) can be coupled to adjacent ramp parts.
- the ramp consisting of the ramp parts can be lifted as a whole so that the pontoon can also be used as a ferry.
- the lifting can be done by a collapsible crane that can be used in recesses in the corners of the outer floats.
- the inner floats 3, 4 form the lane for the vehicles to be transferred.
- a total of four ramp parts 7, 8, 9, 10 are articulated with their short sides on the right transverse edge of the right pontoon 1 in this view.
- the articulated connection takes place in the usual way by eyes 12 which engage in recesses 11 on the pontoon 1 and which are locked with suitable bolts.
- the ramp parts 7, 8, 9, 10 are approximately as long as the pontoons 1, 2 and are designed so that they can withstand the load of vehicles on the one hand, but on the other hand are so flat that vehicles can drive directly from the ramp onto the bank embankment . They have retractable lifting eyes (31) into which the hook of a crane can engage.
- the ramp parts 7, 8, 9, 10 When not in use, in particular for transport, the ramp parts 7, 8, 9, 10 are inserted into suitable recesses 13, 14 which are formed in the outer floating bodies 5, 6 of the pontoons 1, 2.
- the depressions 13, 14 are designed such that the ramp parts 7, 8, 9, 10 are flush with the surfaces of the outer floating bodies 5, 6 after insertion, so that their accessibility is ensured.
- receiving bores 15 are provided, into which a crane can be used to lift the ramp parts 7, 8, 9, 10 out of the depressions 13, 14.
- FIG. 2 shows a cross section through the embankment 16 of a body of water 17.
- the pontoons 1, 2 with the attached ramp parts 7 float on the body of water 17, the free ends of which rest on the embankment 16.
- a collapsible crane 18 is inserted into one of the receiving bores 15.
- the ramp parts 7, 8, 9, 10 can be raised by means of a crane hook 19 and, after the lock on the pontoon 1 has been released, can be placed again in one of the depressions 13, 14.
- the pontoons 1, 2 can then be used as a ferry.
- Figure 3 also shows a cross section through a body of water 20.
- the two embankments 21, 22 are connected by a floating bridge 23, which is alternately composed of a pontoon 24, 25, 26 and several ramp parts 27, 28, 29, 30 each. It can be seen from this that the ramp parts 27, 28, 29, 30 can be used not only for connection to the embankments 21, 22, but also for coupling two pontoons 24, 25, 26. In this way, a floating bridge can be assembled from a few pontoons if it is only used by lower load classes.
- Such a construction of the floating bridge 23 also allows a better adaptation to the width of the water 20 to be bridged, since the ramp parts 27, 28, 29, 30 are somewhat shorter than the pontoons 24, 25, 26. It is not necessary for pontoons and ramp parts to alternate with one another, but several pontoons can also be arranged between the ramp parts.
- connection between two pontoons or between a pontoon and the bank is normally made by four adjacent ramp parts, so that a closed roadway is created; however, depending on the purpose of the bridge, fewer, but at least two ramp parts can be used.

Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Ponton für Brücken und Fähren, bestehend aus vier auseinander- und zusammenklappbaren Schwimmkörpern, wobei in den Aussenschwimmkörpern je eine Spurtafel eingelassen ist, die an zumindest einer Querseite Kupplungen zum Anlenken an den Aussenkanten der Innenschwimmkörper aufweist.The invention relates to a pontoon for bridges and ferries, consisting of four collapsible and collapsible floating bodies, wherein a track panel is embedded in the outer floating bodies, which has couplings on at least one transverse side for articulation on the outer edges of the inner floating bodies.
Solche Pontons sind beispielsweise in der DE-A-1 924 282 und DE-A-3 003 397 beschrieben. Bei der in der erstgenannten Druckschrift dargestellten Pontonschwimmbrücke waren auch schon Rampenteile vorgesehen, die für ihren Transport auf einem gesonderten Wagen übereinandergestapelt wurden. Von dieser Ausbildung des Rampenbereichs einer Pontonschwimmbrücke ging man jedoch wegen des hohen Raumaufwandes ab und bildete spezielle Rampenabschnitte aus, die in der gleichen Weise zusammen- und auseinandergefaltet werden können wie die Innenabschnitte. Der Vorteil solcher Rampenabschnitte lag in dem geringen Raumaufwand in zusammengefaltetem Zustand. Bei den vorbekannten Pontons sind Ausführungsformen bekannt, bei denen in die Aussenschwimmkörper auch je eine Spurtafel eingelassen sind. Diese Spurtafeln können mittels eines aufbaubaren Krans aus den Aussenschwimmkörpern herausgenommen und an den Querkanten der Innenschwimmkörper mittels einfachen Bolzenkupplungen angelenkt werden, um eine Verbindung zu einem Uferabschnitt zu schaffen. Ihre Länge beträgt etwa ein Drittel der Gesamtlänge der Pontons und hat nur eine Hilfsfunktion, beispielsweise um einen Ponton nach seinem Auseinanderfalten auf dem Wasser von einer steilen Uferböschung besteigen zu können. In den meisten Fällen ist jedoch ein Heranfahren der Pontons an die Uferböschung wegen deren Tiefgang nicht möglich, so dass die Spurtafeln nicht verwendet werden können. Zur Verbindung mit dem Ufer werden deshalb grundsätzlich besondere Rampenabschnitte eingesetzt.Such pontoons are described for example in DE-A-1 924 282 and DE-A-3 003 397. In the pontoon floating bridge shown in the first-mentioned publication, ramp parts were already provided, which were stacked one above the other for their transport on a separate carriage. This design of the ramp area of a pontoon floating bridge, however, was abandoned because of the high space requirement and special ramp sections were formed which can be folded and unfolded in the same way as the inner sections. The advantage of such ramp sections was the small amount of space when folded. In the previously known pontoons, embodiments are known in which a track board is embedded in each of the outer floating bodies. These track panels can be removed from the outer floating bodies by means of a mountable crane and articulated on the transverse edges of the inner floating bodies by means of simple bolt couplings in order to create a connection to a bank section. Their length is about a third of the total length of the pontoons and has only an auxiliary function, for example to be able to climb a pontoon from a steep bank after it has been unfolded on the water. In most cases, however, it is not possible to move the pontoons to the bank because of their draft, so that the track boards cannot be used. Special ramp sections are therefore always used to connect to the bank.
Die vorbeschriebenen Rampenabschnitte sind jedoch wegen des komplizierten Faltmechanismusses relativ aufwendig. Ausserdem ist für ihren Transport ein eigenes Fahrzeug erforderlich.However, the ramp sections described above are relatively complex because of the complicated folding mechanism. In addition, a separate vehicle is required for their transportation.
Daneben sind sogenannte amphibische Brükken bekannt, die aus einer Vielzahl von im Abstand zueinander schwimmenden Amphibienfahrzeugen und dazwischen angeordneten Brückenabschnitten gebildet werden (FR-A-1 343538). Diese Amphibienfahrzeuge schwimmen dabei mit ihren Längsachsen parallel und im Abstand zueinander und weisen ausklappbare Zusatzschwimmkörper auf beiden Seiten auf, die von den Brükkenabschnitten überspannt werden müssen.In addition, so-called amphibious bridges are known, which are formed from a multiplicity of amphibious vehicles swimming at a distance from one another and bridge sections arranged in between (FR-A-1 343538). These amphibious vehicles swim with their longitudinal axes parallel and at a distance from each other and have fold-out additional floating bodies on both sides that have to be spanned by the bridge sections.
Solche Schwimmbrücken eignen sich nur für den kurzfristigen Gebrauch, da sie wegen der Vielzahl der notwendigen amphibischen Fahrzeuge viel Material binden, denn zur Überbrückung eines Gewässers sind eine Vielzahl von Amphibienfahrzeugen notwendig. Die Länge der sie verbindenden Brückenabschnitte konnte nämlich, damit sie ubernaupt noch handhabbar waren, nur begrenzt sein. Für Schwimmbrücken, die ein Gewässer längere Zeit überbrücken sollen, werden deshalb nach wie vor Pontonschwimmbrücken eingesetzt.Such floating bridges are only suitable for short-term use because they bind a lot of material due to the large number of amphibious vehicles required, because a large number of amphibious vehicles are required to bridge a water body. The length of the bridge sections connecting them could only be limited so that they were still manageable. Pontoon floating bridges are therefore still used for floating bridges that are to bridge a body of water for a longer period of time.
Der Erfindung liegt deshalb die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Lösung für die Rampen von Schwimmbrücken oder Fähren zu finden, die einen Zusammenbau derartiger Brücken und Fähren unter Verwendung nur eines Pontontyps erlaubt und dennoch für die meisten Uferformen einsetzbar ist.The invention is therefore based on the object of finding a solution for the ramps of floating bridges or ferries which allows such bridges and ferries to be assembled using only one type of pontoon and yet can be used for most types of bank.
Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäss dadurch gelöst, dass die Spurtafeln als sich über annähernd die gesamte Länge der Aussenschwimmkörper erstreckende Rampenteile ausgebildet sind und dass die Breite der Rampenteile so ausgelegt und die Kupplungen so angeordnet sind, dass zumindest zwei nebeneinander an den Innenschwimmkörpern angelenkte Rampenteile eine geschlossene Rampe mit der Breite mindestens einer der Innenschwimmkörper bilden.This object is achieved according to the invention in that the track panels are designed as ramp parts which extend over almost the entire length of the outer floating bodies and in that the width of the ramp parts is designed and the couplings are arranged such that at least two ramp parts hinged next to one another on the inner floating bodies form a closed ramp form with the width of at least one of the inner floats.
Erfindungsgemäss können aus solchen Pontons durch Herausnahme von vorzugsweise jeweils vier Rampenteilen Rampen zusammengesetzt werden, wie sie bisher nur mittels besonderer Rampenabschnitte herstellbar waren. Die Rampen bilden eine geschlossene Fahrbahn und können etwa den selben Raum überbrücken wie ein Rampenabschnitt und sind demnach vielseitig einsetzbar. Ausserdem können sich die einzelnen Rampenteile besser ungleichmässigen Uferböschungen anpassen als ein starrer Rampenabschnitt.According to the invention, such pontoons can be used to assemble ramps, preferably by removing four ramp parts in each case, such as were previously only possible using special ramp sections. The ramps form a closed lane and can bridge about the same space as a ramp section and are therefore versatile. In addition, the individual ramp parts can adapt better to uneven banks than a rigid ramp section.
Ein wesentlicher Vorteil liegt auch in der Kostengünstigkeit, denn zwei oder auch mehr solcher Rampenteile sind erheblich billiger als ein gesonderter Rampenabschnitt mit dessen aufwendiger Klappmechanik. Ausserdem braucht jetzt nur noch ein Pontontyp gebaut zu werden, was für die Serienherstellung und Wartung günstiger ist. Schliesslich werden bei jeder Schwimmbrücke wenigstens zwei Transportfahrzeuge für die Rampenabschnitte eingespart, da die Rampenteile platzsparend in den Pontons mittransportiert werden.A major advantage is the cost-effectiveness, because two or more such ramp parts are considerably cheaper than a separate ramp section with its complex folding mechanism. In addition, only one type of pontoon now needs to be built, which is cheaper for series production and maintenance. Finally, at least two transport vehicles are saved for the ramp sections with each floating bridge, since the ramp parts are transported in the pontoons in a space-saving manner.
Dies wirkt sich noch günstiger aus, wenn bei einer aus solchen Pontons aufgebauten Schwimmbrücke die Rampenteile auch als Verbindungen zwischen zwei benachbarten Pontons benutzt werden. Dies bietet sich an, wenn die Schwimmbrücke nur von einer niedrigeren Lastenklasse befahren werden soll. Entsprechend werden Pontons eingespart, brauchen also nicht mittransportiert werden. Ausserdem ist hierdurch eine bessere Anpassung an den jeweils zu überbrückenden Abstand möglich, weil die Rampenteile etwas kürzer als die Pontons sind. Insgesamt zeichnet sich somit der erfindungsgemässe Ponton durch vielseitige Einsatzmöglichkeit und besondere Kostengünstigkeit aus.This has an even more favorable effect if, in the case of a floating bridge constructed from such pontoons, the ramp parts are also used as connections between two adjacent pontoons. This is useful if the floating bridge should only be used by a lower load class. Correspondingly, pontoons are saved and therefore do not have to be transported. In addition, a better adaptation to the distance to be bridged is possible because the ramp parts are somewhat shorter than the pontoons. Overall, the pontoon according to the invention is thus distinguished by its versatility and particular cost-effectiveness.
In Ausbildung der Erfindung ist vorgesehen, dass das bzw. die Rampenteil(e) an beiden Querseiten Kupplungen zur Verbindung zweier Pontons mit Rampenteilen aufweist bzw. aufweisen, wie dies zuvor beschrieben ist. Zweckmässigerweise sind die Rampenteile ebenfalls als Schwimmkörper ausgebildet.In an embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the ramp part (s) have couplings on both transverse sides for connecting two pontoons with ramp parts, as described above. More appropriate the ramp parts are also designed as floating bodies.
In weiterer Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist vorgeschlagen, dass das bzw. die Rampenteil(e) mit danebenliegenden Rampenteilen kuppelbar ist bzw. sind. Auf diese Weise kann die aus den Rampenteilen bestehende Rampe als Ganzes hochgehoben werden, damit der Ponton auch als Fähre zu benutzen ist. Das Anheben kann dabei durch einen zerlegbaren Kran erfolgen, der in Vertiefungen in den Ecken der Aussenschwimmkörper einsetzbar ist.In a further embodiment of the invention, it is proposed that the ramp part (s) can be coupled to adjacent ramp parts. In this way, the ramp consisting of the ramp parts can be lifted as a whole so that the pontoon can also be used as a ferry. The lifting can be done by a collapsible crane that can be used in recesses in the corners of the outer floats.
In der Zeichnung ist die Erfindung an Hand eines Ausführungsbeispiels näher veranschaulicht. Es zeigen:
- Figur 1 eine Draufsicht auf zwei Pontons mit Rampe;
Figur 2 einen Querschnitt durch ein Gewässer mit den Pontons und der Rampe gemäss Figur 1 und- Figur 3 einen Querschnitt durch ein Gewässer mit einer Schwimmbrücke.
- Figure 1 is a plan view of two pontoons with a ramp;
- 2 shows a cross section through a body of water with the pontoons and the ramp according to FIG. 1 and
- Figure 3 shows a cross section through a body of water with a floating bridge.
Die in Figur 1 gezeigten zwei Pontons 1, 2, von denen der in dieser Ansicht linke nur zum Teil dargestellt ist, bestehen jeweils aus zwei Innenschwimmkörpern 3, 4 und zwei Aussenschwimmkörpern 5, 6. Diese sind derart gelenkig untereinander verbunden, dass sie W-artig zusammengeklappt werden können. Die Innenschwimmkörper 3,4 bilden dabei die Fahrbahn für die überzusetzenden Fahrzeuge.The two
An der in dieser Ansicht rechten Querkante des rechten Pontons 1 sind insgesamt vier Rampenteile 7, 8, 9, 10 mit ihren jeweils kurzen Seiten angelenkt. Die gelenkige Verbindung geschieht in üblicher Weise durch in Ausnehmungen 11 am Ponton 1 eingreifende Augen 12, die mit passenden Bolzen verriegelt werden.A total of four
Die Rampenteile 7, 8, 9, 10 sind annähernd so lang wie die Pontons 1, 2 und dabei so ausgelegt, dass sie einerseits der Belastung durch Fahrzeuge standhalten, andererseits jedoch so flach sind, dass Fahrzeuge von der Rampe direkt auf die Uferböschung fahren können. Sie weisen versenkbare Hebeösen (31) auf, in die der Haken eines Krans einfassen kann.The
Bei Nichtgebrauch, insbesondere für den Transport, werden die Rampenteile 7, 8, 9, 10 in passende Vertiefungen 13, 14 eingelegt, die in den Aussenschwimmkörpern 5, 6 der Pontons 1, 2 eingeformt sind. Die Vertiefungen 13, 14 sind so gestaltet, dass die Rampenteile 7, 8, 9, 10 nach dem Einlegen bündig mit den Oberflächen der Aussenschwimmkörper 5, 6 abschliessen, so dass deren Begehbarkeit gesichert ist.When not in use, in particular for transport, the
Neben den Stirnseiten der Vertiefungen 13, 14 sind Aufnahmebohrungen 15 vorgesehen, in die ein Kran zum Herausheben der Rampenteile 7, 8, 9, 10 aus den Vertiefungen 13, 14 eingesetzt werden kann.In addition to the end faces of the
Figur 2 zeigt einen Querschnitt durch die Uferböschung 16 eines Gewässers 17. Auf dem Gewässer 17 schwimmen die Pontons 1, 2 mit den angesetzten Rampenteilen 7, wobei deren freie Enden auf der Uferböschung 16 aufliegen. In eine der Aufnahmebohrungen 15 ist ein zusammenlegbarer Kran 18 eingesetzt. Mittels eines Kranhakens 19 können die Rampenteile 7, 8, 9, 10 angehoben und nach Lösen der Verriegelung am Ponton 1 wieder in eine der Vertiefungen 13, 14 gelegt werden. Es besteht auch die Möglichkeit, die Rampenteile 7, 8, 9, 10 mit dem Kran 18 zusammen anzuheben, wenn die Rampenteile 7, 8, 9, 10 miteinander gekoppelt werden. Die Pontons 1, 2 können dann als Fähre verwendet werden.FIG. 2 shows a cross section through the
Figur 3 zeigt ebenfalls einen Querschnitt durch ein Gewässer 20. Hier sind die beiden Uferböschungen 21, 22 durch eine Schwimmbrücke 23 verbunden, die abwechselnd aus je einem Ponton 24, 25, 26 und jeweils mehreren Rampenteilen 27, 28, 29, 30 zusammengesetzt ist. Daraus lässt sich ersehen, dass die Rampenteile 27, 28, 29, 30 nicht nur zur Verbindung mit den Uferböschungen 21, 22, sondern auch zur Kopplung zweier Pontons 24, 25, 26 verwendet werden können. Auf diese Weise kann eine Schwimmbrücke aus wenigen Pontons zusammengesetzt werden, wenn sie nur von niedrigeren Lastenklassen befahren wird.Figure 3 also shows a cross section through a body of
Durch einen solchen Aufbau der Schwimmbrükke 23 kann zudem eine bessere Anpassung an die Breite des zu überbrückenden Gewässers 20 erreicht werden, da die Rampenteile 27, 28, 29, 30 etwas kürzer als die Pontons 24, 25, 26 sind. Dabei ist es nicht notwendig, dass Pontons und Rampenteile miteinander abwechseln, sondern es können auch zwischen den Rampenteilen mehrere Pontons angeordnet werden.Such a construction of the
Die Verbindung zwischen zwei Pontons bzw. zwischen einem Ponton und dem Ufer erfolgt im Normalfall durch vier nebeneinanderliegende Rampenteile, damit eine geschlossene Fahrbahn entsteht; es können aber, je nach Einsatzzweck der Brücke, auch weniger, mindestens jedoch zwei Rampenteile eingesetzt werden.The connection between two pontoons or between a pontoon and the bank is normally made by four adjacent ramp parts, so that a closed roadway is created; however, depending on the purpose of the bridge, fewer, but at least two ramp parts can be used.
