Definitions
- the invention relates to a noise absorbing structure supporting greenery, e.g. for walls running along a traffic route, cladding of walls, guide rails or other road boundaries, boundaries of floor areas or the like, using a large number of old tires, at least the cavities existing between the tire flanks being a material suitable for the growth of greenery, e.g. Earth.
- Noise-absorbing structures using waste tires are also known, which has the advantage of a useful use for the waste tires. So it is e.g. It is known to clad the two sides of the slope of an earth wall with mutually offset layers of entire old tires and to arrange a planting above them. This solution also has the disadvantage of a high workload and a relatively long construction time, which is undesirable, particularly in the case of heavily trafficked road sections, due to the necessary diversions or road closures. In addition, such sound-absorbing earth walls require a relatively large footprint that is not available everywhere. The invention sets itself the task of this
- the invention solves this problem in that the old tires are divided into interrelated tire sectors by cuts starting from the central tire opening, the concave sides of which face a supporting frame to which the tire sectors are attached.
- Such a structure is highly sound-absorbing due to the uneven surface formed by the tire sectors and preserves the advantage of a useful use for the old tires, from which the tire sectors can be produced without problems, especially since generally only a few cuts, often only two cuts, are required to achieve the Manufacture tire sectors. Only one of these cuts passes completely, the other cuts only partially cut through the tire, so that the tire parts adjacent to this cut remain connected to one another at least in parts of the tread of the tire.
- the arrangement of the tire sectors described has the advantage of a very small floor plan area of the structure, so that such a construction system can also be arranged where there is very little space available or where part of the available space cannot be used, for example to keep an escape route clear.
- the effort in terms of working time and building material is comparatively low, especially in comparison to the one described at the beginning known construction of a clad earth wall, since the earth mass to be moved is much less in the construction according to the invention.
- the tire sectors make it possible to design the structure at practically any height and in any course, so that there is a high degree of adaptability to the particular circumstances at hand.
- the structure according to the invention can be built with a much better visual impression than is possible with known sound-absorbing structures, especially since the tire sectors protect the soil they hold and thus the roots for the greening plants, because the tire sectors form a protective rubber layer, as it were. which protects the earth against the bow wave thrown by passing vehicles, against the influence of salt, and against harmful weather effects such as hail, driving rain, snow and storm.
- the living conditions for the greening plants are considerably improved, especially if those plants are used for the greening that are relatively insensitive to exhaust gases and salt scattering.
- Another advantage of the structure according to the invention is that the arc-shaped tire sectors exert good shock absorption when a vehicle crashes, so that part of the impact energy of the vehicle is converted into deformation energy for the elastic tire sectors. This reduces damage to the vehicles, but also to the vehicle occupants and the existing components. In order to prevent the tire sectors from pressing together, it is expedient to arrange expansion pieces between the tire flanks.
- the supporting structure which is preferably subdivided over the length of the structure, carries on its lower edge a horizontally projecting, for example bent or welded leg, which is a support for the Tire sectors arranged in layers one above the other.
- the horizontally projecting leg (or possibly two horizontal legs protruding in different directions) carries the load of the tire sectors during transport and at the same time forms a provisional standing area and a good possibility of attack for all types of hoists, e.g. cranes, forklifts, etc. Any minor damage occurring during transport of the supporting structure remain practically without influence, in particular if the supporting structure is a mesh, preferably a galvanized steel mesh, according to the invention.
- the subdivision of the supporting structure over the length of the structure facilitates the prefabrication and transport mentioned, both of which can now be carried out element by element.
- only the material used for the growth of the greenery then needs to be introduced into the cavities delimited by the tire sectors and the greening plants used. This work can be carried out in a short time, so that the working time at the construction site and the associated roadblocks, diversions etc. are kept to a minimum.
- the cuts run between the connected tire sectors along the tire flank up to approximately the tread of the tire.
- the usually thicker tread does not need to be cut through and forms a permanent, flexible connection of the interconnected tire sectors, so that they easily form an essentially straight-line tire sector chain can be pulled apart, regardless of whether the number of tire sectors of this chain is very small (at least 2) or very large.
- the sections of the central tire openings delimited by the tire sectors in the one above the other! to lay layers overlapping one another, preferably concentrically. This facilitates the filling of the cavities within the tire sectors from above in such a way that each individual layer does not have to be filled separately, but if necessary all layers at once from the upper edge of the structure.
- the central tire openings running from top to bottom over the height of the construction system formed by the structure can then be used to accommodate installations of any type, these installations being able to run at least essentially in a straight line, generally vertically.
- a water supply line with drip lines connected to it higher than the top layer of the tire sectors, the water outlet openings of which lie above the middle tire openings of the top tire sector layer.
- the water can then pass freely from layer to layer through the central tire openings to all parts of the earth within the structure, if appropriate with an addition of fertilizers, in particular if, according to a development of the invention, perforated pipes leading to the water outlet openings, which contain granular material, preferably sand ., filled and wrapped with an absorbent material, preferably felt, and extend to the bottom layer of the tire sectors. This ensures an even supply of water to the soil necessary for greening with economical water consumption 11.
- the greening may grow through the gaps remaining between the tire sectors, at least from the top edge of the superstructure up and down and green the tire sectors and thus the entire structure or the structure to be clad by it in a visually favorable manner.
- the upward growth improves glare protection.
- continuous openings for the passage of greening plants can be provided in the tire sectors, in particular in the upper tire flank. Aeration of the soil within the tire sectors can be achieved by continuous ventilation openings provided in the tire sectors, in particular in their tread area, which are preferably smaller than the openings for the passage of the greening plants.
- a moisture-proof film preferably made of plastic, can be arranged between the support frame and the tire sectors to avoid an adverse influence of the wet earth on this structure.
- this structure can itself form a structure, e.g. a lane boundary, or it can be used to cover guardrails, which not only make them more attractive, but also make them more elastic. Further areas of application are boundaries of floor areas, e.g. of streets or parking lots, and other uses.

- a supporting structure 2 in the form of a structural steel grid is fastened to a wall 1 to be clad, for example by means of dowels sunk into the wall 1, to which the supporting structure 2 is screwed.
- the support structure 2 has an L-shaped shape with a vertical leg 3 and a horizontal leg 4, the latter resting on the load-bearing floor 5 (FIG. 2), which is designed, for example, as a foundation in which the wall 1 is anchored.
- the vertical leg 3 is covered by a moisture-proof film 6, in particular a plastic film.
- a large number of used tires 7 are fastened to the vertical leg 3 of the supporting frame 2. Each of these old tires 7 has two cuts starting from the central tire opening 8 (FIG.
- each used tire 7 is divided into two interrelated tire sectors 9, which are turned to the supporting structure 2 with their concave sides and fastened thereon.
- This attachment can be done by means of any fastening means 10, for example wire shafts, screw connections, etc.
- This attachment is facilitated by the fact that two adjacent Tire sectors 9 are still connected at point 11 (FIG. 3) in the area of the tread where the fasteners 10 can be installed particularly cheaply and easily.
- the individual old tires 7 or the tire sectors 9 are arranged in a plurality of horizontal layers in such a way that the central tire openings 8 overlap in the layers lying one above the other, viewed in the vertical direction.
- a concentric arrangement of these tire openings 8 is preferred.
- a material suitable for the growth of greenery 12, for example soil 13 can easily be filled into the remaining cavities from above, that is, the cavities in the area of the tire openings 8 and those from the tire beads limited voids. This filling can take place after completion of the structure formed by the old tires 7 from the uppermost layer of the old tires 7, the soil 13 falling through into the lowest old tire layer and filling it.
- openings 14 are provided in the tire sectors 9, in particular in their upper tire branches 1, through which the plants of the greenery 12 can pass. Furthermore, in the profile area of the tire sectors 9, additional ventilation openings 15 (FIG. 1) are provided for the earth 13 located inside the tire beads. In order to prevent this soil 13 from falling out through the ventilation openings 15, these openings are smaller than the openings 14 for the passage of the greenery 12. For watering the greenery 12, a supply line 17 for water is higher than that on the upper edge 16 of the wall 1 top tires 7 arranged.
- Drip lines 18 are connected to this supply line 17 at predetermined intervals, which likewise run parallel to the supply line 17 above the uppermost tire tire layer and each have water outlet openings above the central tire openings 8 of the tire sectors 9 are.
- Perforated, vertically extending tubes 19 are arranged under these water outlet openings, which are filled with granular material, in particular sand, and are wrapped with an absorbent material, in particular felt, and extend into the bottom layer of the tire sectors 9. This ensures uniform irrigation of the soil 13 in all layers of the tire sectors 9.
- the film 6 prevents this dampness to the supporting structure 2 or. can get to wall 1.
- the supporting structure 2 is divided over the length of the wall 1 at predetermined intervals, these intervals being expediently coordinated with the position of the continuous cuts in the old tires 7. This results in the possibility of prefabricating the support structure 2 together with the tire sectors 9 attached to it in a factory and, in the prefabricated state, leading them element by element to the place of use, where only the soil 13 needs to be filled in and the greening plants need to be used. During this transport, the horizontal leg 4 of the support frame 2 forms a support for the old tires 7.
- this leg 4 lies on the floor 5, provided that the floor 5 is level and load-bearing, so that the weight of the old tires 7 is held by them Earth 13 and the greenery 12 derived in the floor 5 and the wall 1 is not burdened by it.
- the support structure 2 with the used tires 7 and the earth 13 including greenery 12 can also be hung on the wall 1. In this case, only the fastening means 10 must be dimensioned accordingly.
- the structure forming a green covering from the old tires 7 will only be arranged on one side of the wall 1.
- this cladding can also be provided on both sides of the wall 1 if desired.
- each waste tire 7 is divided into two interconnected tire sectors 9, each of which extends over 180 degrees, only by two cuts, of which only one goes through.
- the subdivision of the old tire 7 into tire sectors 9 can also be done by more than one inconsistent cut, so that more than two tire sectors 9 can be formed from a single old tire 7, which in special cases also have different lengths - measured in the circumferential direction of the old tire 7 - can have.
- the distance between the front surface of the tire sectors 9 and the wall 1 can be set as desired, this distance becoming smaller the more tire sectors 9 are formed from a single old tire 7.
- the tire sectors can be arranged in whole or in part at a distance from the supporting structure 2, the fastening means 10 then e.g. are formed by wire loops.
- each support frame 2 consists of a structural steel grid in an L-shape, the two vertical legs 3 of the support structures being arranged adjacent to one another back to back and being firmly connected to one another and to the uprights 21, so that a stable support structure is formed.
- the two horizontal legs 4 of the two support frames 2 face away from one another and rest on the floor 5 and each carry a large number of used tires 7, which are divided into interconnected tire sectors 9 in the manner described.
- the two Tire flanks 20 (FIG.
- each tire sector 9 are stiffened by expansion pieces 22, for example wooden blocks, lying between these tire flanks.
- the tire sectors 9 are again fastened to the support structures 2 by means of fastening means 10, but in such a way that only the free ends of the interconnected tire sectors 9 rest on the support structure 2, whereas the parts of the tire sectors in between, in particular the locations 11, at which two tire sectors 9 each interrelated, lie at a distance from the supporting structure 2 (Fig. 6).
- 11 existing fastening means for example wire loops, can secure this distance.
- the soil 13 lying in the tire openings 8 can be arranged more coherently, which is conducive to the growth of the greenery 12.
- the free ends of the tire sectors 9 can also be spaced apart from the supporting structure 2 in order to create even more space for earth. It serves the same purpose if the tire sectors 9 of one side of the structure they form are arranged offset, preferably by half the tire diameter (FIG. 6), relative to the tire sectors 9 lying on the other side thereof. If the earth can pass through the supporting structure 2, which is easily possible through the mesh of the same when using a structural steel grid, there is an uninterrupted, serpentine course of the earth 13, seen in plan view (FIG. 6), which shows the scarf 1 insulation behavior improved.
- the spreading pieces 22 ensure that the two tire flanks 20 of each tire sector 9 are kept at a distance from one another, so that the earth 13 can completely fill the cavities of the tire beads when filling.
- a single support structure can also be used, which can be formed, for example, by a steel mesh which has at its lower edge two horizontal legs 4 pointing in different directions. The only one of these legs can be bent horizontally from the vertical leg 3, the other horizontal leg 4 is welded to the vertical leg 3 at the attachment point.
- a mesh 23 or a net can be fastened at their apex, on which plants growing through the openings 14 can climb along the greenery 12. This prevents these plants from swinging freely.
- a structure formed by such a green covering can be used in a particularly advantageous manner as a median of traffic routes, but also as a parking space boundary, and wherever emphasis is placed on a green covering or subdivision of an area.
- the structure formed by the green tire sectors 9 is used to make a roadway boundary 24 shock and noise absorbing and to make it visually pleasing by the greening.
- the roadway boundary 24 has a base body formed by a reinforced concrete component 25, which consists of a base part 26 and a web 27 projecting upwards from the base.
- the base part 2 ⁇ has bevels 28 on its two side surfaces and is used in a known manner to guide a vehicle coming off the roadway 29 back onto the roadway.
- the lane boundary 24 can be arranged in the middle between two lanes, for example in the manner of a median strip of a freeway, and can be designed symmetrically to a vertical plane.
- the base part 26 forms a flat top surface 30 lying on both sides of the web 27 Support for the tire sectors 9, which are arranged in horizontal, superimposed layers and fastened to the web 27 by means of the fastening means 10. Since considerable stress due to colliding vehicles must be expected, the tire sectors are each attached to the web 27 with the cut surfaces, with the aid of a suitable supporting structure 2, for example in the manner of the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 3.
- the tire sectors 9 can completely cover the web 27, so that a beautiful appearance is achieved, in the case of use on a lane median also improved glare protection, in particular if the greenery 12 grows up over the upper edge of the uppermost tire sectors 9 (FIG. 8).
- the irrigation of the soil 13 located in the cavities of the tire sectors 9 can be achieved either through the perforated pipes 19 in the manner already described, or by the water outlet openings of the drip lines 18 being connected to transverse channels 31 or transverse grooves in the web 4, which lead the water from the water outlet openings of the drip lines 18 to the earth 13.
- anchors not shown, e.g. Ground anchors
- FIGS. 10, 10 to 12 show the application of the from Tire sectors 9 formed structure as a green roof support for a along the longitudinal direction of a roadway in usually arranged guide rail 32, which is anchored in the floor 5 by means of uprights 33 (Fig.12).
- the exemplary embodiment shown is the median strip of a motorway, two guide rails 32 running parallel to one another (FIGS. 11, 12).
- the space between the floor 5 and the lower edge 34 of the two guide rails is filled by interrelated tire sectors 9 which are produced in the manner described and which, in the exemplary embodiment shown, are arranged in two mutually parallel rows in a plurality of layers one above the other and in this position by one the supporting structure 2, which is placed on the floor 5 and fastened thereon, on which the tire sectors 9 are held by the fastening means 10.
- the tire sectors 9 are arranged in three layers between the lower edge 34 of the guide rail 32 and the floor 5 (FIG. 2), whereas the fourth layer of the tire sectors 9, counted from the floor 5, lies approximately at the height of the guide rail 32, behind it and the top one
- (Fifth) layer lies above the guide rail 32.
- only one or two tire layers can also lie between the base 5 and the guide rail 32.
- the space remaining between the vertical legs 3 of the two support structures 2 is filled by earth 13, which is connected to each earth through the openings of the structural steel grid of the support structure 2, which is arranged within the cavities of the tire sectors 9.
- the soil 13 can be added with compost or fertilizers.
- FIG. 11 shows, the circumference of the visible side of all tire sectors 9 recedes behind the profile of the guide rail 32 facing the road.
- the arrangement can be made as shown in Fig. 11 below is indicated by dashed lines) that some or all of the tire sectors 9, viewed in plan view, protrude beyond the profile of the guide rail towards the roadway.
- the individual tire sector layers can also be arranged in a graduated manner with respect to the tread facing the road.
- the tire sectors 9 are connected in pairs by the inconsistent cuts, the pairs being connected to one another by additional brackets 35. Additional connections of the packages formed by the tire sectors 9 or of the supporting structures 2 carrying them are provided to the floor 5, e.g. in the form of anchor screws 36 (Fig. 11) and / or to the guide rail 32, e.g. also in the form of screw connections 37.
- the structure formed by the tire sectors 9 is used to delimit a floor area, for example a parking space.
- the old tires 7, which are divided into interconnected tire sectors 9 in the manner described, are fastened to a support frame 2 with the concave sides of the tire openings 8 facing them, which support frame 2 is also stiffened by galvanized steel pipes 38 resting on the ground, with which the lowest position of the tire sectors 9 are connected by means of brackets 39.
- Further connecting means 40 for example clips, connect the tire sectors 9 of each layer to one another, and individual tire sectors 9 of the same layer, provided that they are not connected to one another in the tread area anyway.
- the tire sectors 9 lying on both sides of the structure 1 are at a predetermined distance from one another, which is filled with soil 13 for the greening 12.
- Tire sectors 9, which are manufactured in a similar manner to those used for the side walls of the structure, can also be provided on the end faces of the boundary.
- the support frames 2 Around the tire sectors 9 To be able to hold the end faces of the structure well, the support frames 2 also have inwardly projecting legs which rest on the floor 5 and to which the bottom layer of the end tire sectors 9 are fastened. In this way, it is located within the tire sectors 9 of the entire body! earth 13 well kept.
- a material favoring the growth of the greenery 12, for example compost, fertilizer, etc., can be added to this soil.
- the greening 12 is shown in Fig.13 for the sake of clarity only for the right edge of the structure, but in practice covers the structure entirely and therefore covers all tire sectors 9 completely, so that a pleasing, environmentally friendly and psychologically favorable appearance of the Structure or the limit formed by him is created.
- This limitation can be loaded, if necessary 1 s element by element into sections divided over the length of the structure, by means of the steel tubes 38, for example by means of a crane, so that these elements of the limitation (mostly without the earth 13) are prefabricated and can be transported to the point of use in the prefabricated state without significant effort. There the filling of the cavities with soil 13 and the insertion of the plants necessary for the greening 12 can take place quickly and without problems. It is also easy to move the entire limit.
- all tire sectors 9 are the same size. This gives the advantage of essentially vertical boundary walls, of the structure, in particular on the abutting surfaces, on which adjacent sections of the boundary adjoin one another, so that no or almost no gaps remain between the adjacent sections. Any remaining gaps are covered by the greenery 12.
- the arrangement can also be such that the tire sectors 9 of the individual layers or possibly also within the same layer, different. Have dimensions, whereby a predetermined profiling of the structure can be achieved.
- the individual sections of the structure can only be placed on the floor with the steel pipes 38, since the weight of the individual longitudinal sections of the boundary is generally sufficient due to the earth filling in order to prevent an unwanted shifting when the forces are not too great.
- the individual sections of the structure can also be fastened to the floor 5, for example by means of brackets or anchor bolts acting on the steel tubes 38.
- the L- or T-shaped support structures 2 are then expediently welded to the steel tubes 38.
- the steel pipes together with the supporting structure facilitate the transportation of the structure, if necessary element by element, and support the supporting structure 2 lying on them.
- a plastic film lies on the horizontal leg of the structural steel grid forming the support frame 2.
- Preferred areas of application for such boundaries are center strips and side edge boundaries for streets and parking lot boundaries, but such boundaries can advantageously be used wherever a pleasing and robust delimitation of a floor area is desired.
