Description

La présente invention concerne des perfectionnements apportés aux tours d'étaiement utilisées dans le bâtiment ou les travaux publics pour le soutien temporaire d'éléments de construction pesants (plancher, travée de pont, ...), et elle concerne plus particulièrement des perfectionnements apportés à certains éléments constitutifs de ces tours d'étaiement pour assurer une sécurité efficace du personnel aussi bien lors du montage/démontage qu'en exploitation.The present invention relates to improvements made to the shoring towers used in the building or public works for temporary support heavy construction elements (floor, span bridge, ...), and it relates more particularly to improvements made to certain constituent elements of these shoring towers to ensure safety efficient staff as well during assembly / disassembly than in operation.

Actuellement, les tours d'étaiement sont équipées de croisillons qui sont solidarisés aux montants verticaux et qui n'offrent pas de sécurité suffisante pour le personnel, ni lors du montage de la tour d'étaiement, ni lors de son utilisation.Shoring towers are currently equipped braces which are secured to the vertical uprights and which do not provide sufficient security for the personnel, neither during the erection of the shoring tower, nor when in use.

La tour d'étaiement peut également être équipée, notamment en supplément des croisillons précités, de lisses horizontales qui, certes, peuvent assurer le rôle de garde-corps une fois montées, mais dont le montage ne s'effectue pas dans les conditions de sécurité requises.En outre, l'indépendance des lisses vis-à-vis des croisillons entraíne des manipulations additionnelles et allonge la durée des opérations de montage/démontage.The shoring tower can also be equipped, in particular in addition to the aforementioned crosspieces, horizontal beams which, of course, can play the role of railings once assembled, but whose assembly does not does not take place under the required security conditions. in addition, the independence of the beams from the cross bars causes additional manipulations and lengthens the duration of assembly / disassembly operations.

Enfin, on connaít des garde-corps à montage indépendant de celui des croisillons qui n'offrent cependant pas une sécurité suffisante en exploitation. En outre leur indépendance des croisillons nécessite des manipulations supplémentaires et allonge les étapes de montage/démontage.Finally, we know mounting railings independent of that of the braces which do not offer however not sufficient safety in operation. In in addition to their independence from the braces requires additional manipulations and lengthens the stages of assembly / disassembly.

L'invention a essentiellement pour but de proposer une structure perfectionnée qui offre la sécurité requise non seulement en exploitation, mais aussi lors du montage/démontage et qui par ailleurs soit agencée de manière à simplifier les conditions de stockage, de transport et de montage/démontage du matériel et à conduire à une sensible accélération du montage/démontage.The object of the invention is essentially to propose an advanced structure that provides the required security not only in operation, but also during assembly / disassembly and which is also arranged in order to simplify the storage conditions, transport and assembly / disassembly of equipment and lead to a significant acceleration of assembly / disassembly.

A ces fins, l'invention propose un ensemble croisillon garde-corps pour tour d'étaiement comprenant :

  • un croisillon comportant un premier et un second barreau en X articulés en rotation à leur intersection, les extrémités inférieures et supérieures respectives des deux barreaux étant agencées pour leur solidarisation à des montants verticaux de la tour d'étaiement, et
  • une traverse supérieure dont une extrémité est solidaire en rotation de l'extrémité supérieure du premier barreau et dont l'autre extrémité est solidarisable de façon amovible à l'extrémité supérieure du second barreau.
For these purposes, the invention provides a railing spider assembly for shoring tower comprising:
  • a crosspiece comprising a first and a second X-shaped bar articulated in rotation at their intersection, the respective lower and upper ends of the two bars being arranged for their attachment to the vertical uprights of the shoring tower, and
  • an upper cross member, one end of which is rotatably attached to the upper end of the first bar and the other end of which is detachably secured to the upper end of the second bar.

Grâce à ces dispositions structurelles, ledit ensemble peut occuper deux positions fonctionnelles, à savoir :

  • une position de montage dans laquelle la traverse est solidarisée à l'extrémité supérieure du second barreau en maintenant les deux barreaux dans leur conformation en X, ledit ensemble pouvant alors être solidarisé aux montants verticaux de la tour d'étaiement par les extrémités inférieures et supérieures desdits barreaux, la traverse constituant une lisse supérieure,
    et
  • une position de stockage et de transport dans laquelle la traverse est désolidarisée de l'extrémité supérieure du second barreau et les deux barreaux et la traverse sont repliés les uns contre les autres en un faisceau.
Thanks to these structural arrangements, said assembly can occupy two functional positions, namely:
  • a mounting position in which the cross member is secured to the upper end of the second bar while maintaining the two bars in their X-shaped configuration, said assembly can then be secured to the vertical uprights of the shoring tower by the lower and upper ends said bars, the cross member constituting an upper rail,
    and
  • a storage and transport position in which the cross member is detached from the upper end of the second bar and the two bars and the cross member are folded against one another in a bundle.

Pour faciliter le montage correct de l'ensemble (fixation de la traverse au second barreau du croisillon en position de lisse et montage des quatre extrémités du croisillon sur les montants de la tour d'étaiement), on prévoit avantageusement que les moyens de solidarisation situés à l'extrémité supérieure du second barreau comprennent une patte saillante percée d'une lumière oblongue.To facilitate the correct assembly of the assembly (fixing the crosspiece to the second cross bar in smooth position and mounting of the four ends of the crosspiece on the uprights of the shoring tower), advantageously provides that the means of securing located at the upper end of the second bar include a protruding leg pierced with an oblong light.

Pour faciliter les conditions de stockage et de transport du matériel, les premier et second barreaux comportent des moyens de solidarisation intermédiaires distants de leurs extrémités supérieures respectives et situés en des emplacements respectifs tels que, dans la position de stockage et de transport dans laquelle les deux barreaux et la traverse sont repliés les uns contre les autres, l'extrémité libre de la traverse est solidarisable simultanément auxdits moyens de solidarisation intermédiaires des deux barreaux, ce grâce à quoi les deux barreaux et la traverse sont bloqués dans leur position repliée les uns contre les autres. Dans ce cas, il est avantageux que lesdits moyens de solidarisation intermédiaires comprennent deux pattes saillantes percées chacune d'une lumière et prévues respectivement sur les deux barreaux.To facilitate storage and storage conditions transport of equipment, the first and second bars include intermediate securing means distant from their respective upper ends and located in respective locations such as in the storage and transport position in which two bars and the cross are folded against each other the others, the free end of the cross member can be secured simultaneously with said securing means intermediaries of the two bars, thanks to which the two bars and crosspiece are locked in their position folded against each other. In this case, it is advantageous that said intermediate securing means include two protruding tabs each pierced of a light and provided respectively on the two bars.

Pour compléter la protection conférée, en position de montage, par la lisse supérieure formée par la traverse assemblée au croisillon, on peut prévoir que les deux barreaux soient pourvus de parties saillantes respectives disposées entre leur articulation mutuelle et leurs extrémités supérieures respectives et conformées de manière que, en position de montage, ces deux parties saillantes forment ensemble une sous-lisse. Dans un mode de réalisation simple, chaque partie saillante est constituée par un tronçon allongé (tube, fer plat ou en L) coudé en L solidarisé au barreau respectif.To complete the protection conferred, in position mounting, by the top rail formed by the cross assembled at the cross, we can predict that the two bars are provided with respective projecting parts arranged between their mutual articulation and their respective and shaped upper ends of so that, in the mounting position, these two parts protruding together form a sub-smooth. In a mode of simple realization, each projecting part is consisting of an elongated section (tube, flat iron or L) angled in L fixed to the respective bar.

Grâce aux dispositions conformes à l'invention, on constitue un ensemble regroupant trois éléments constitutifs principaux (deux barreaux et une traverse) qui sont propres à constituer un croisillon garde-corps offrant toutes les conditions de sécurité requises pour le personnel en exploitation. Au surplus, lors du montage, l'ensemble est préparé dans sa conformation d'exploitation soit au sol, soit à un étage inférieur de la tour d'étaiement, puis mis en place de là (contreventement à lancement) alors que le personnel de montage se trouve à un emplacement sécurisé.Thanks to the arrangements according to the invention, we constitute a set of three elements main components (two bars and a cross member) which are suitable for constituting a railing cross offering all the security conditions required for the operating personnel. In addition, during assembly, the whole is prepared in its operating conformation either on the ground or on a lower floor of the tower shoring, then set up from there (bracing launch) while the assembly personnel are at a secure location.

En outre, du fait de l'inséparabilité de ces trois éléments principaux, on est assuré de toujours disposer, lors du stockage, du transport et du montage/démontage, de l'ensemble complet sans risque de perte de pièces.In addition, due to the inseparability of these three main elements, we are sure to always have, during storage, transport and assembly / disassembly, the complete set without risk of losing parts.

On notera au surplus que la conformation repliée de l'ensemble simplifie notablement les conditions de stockage et de transport de ce matériel.Note also that the folded conformation of the set significantly simplifies the conditions of storage and transport of this material.

Enfin, et il ne s'agit pas là d'un moindre avantage, le coût d'un ensemble croisillon garde-corps conforme à l'invention n'est pas excessif en regard, d'une part, des coûts individuels respectifs des deux barreaux du croisillon et de la traverse formant lisse qui doivent de toute façon entrer dans la constitution de la tour d'étaiement et, d'autre part, de l'amélioration des conditions de montage/démontage et de l'amélioration des conditions de sécurité au cours de ces étapes.Finally, and this is not a lesser advantage, the cost of a railing brace set according to the invention is not excessive with regard to a share of the respective individual costs of the two bars crosspiece and cross member forming a smooth anyway get into the constitution of the tower shoring and, secondly, improving conditions of assembly / disassembly and improvement of security conditions during these steps.

L'invention sera mieux comprise à la lecture de la description détaillée qui suit d'un mode de réalisation préféré donné uniquement à titre d'exemple non limitatif. Dans cette description, on se réfère aux dessins annexés sur lesquels :

  • la figure 1 est une vue schématique de côté d'un ensemble croisillon garde-corps pour tour d'étaiement agencé conformément à l'invention, montré en position de montage ;
  • la figure 2 est une vue schématique de côté de l'ensemble de la figure 1 montré en position repliée pour son stockage et/ou son transport ; et
  • la figure 3 est une vue schématique en perspective d'une tour d'étaiement en cours de montage/démontage, avec l'ensemble de la figure 1 montré en cours d'installation/désinstallation.
The invention will be better understood on reading the following detailed description of a preferred embodiment given solely by way of nonlimiting example. In this description, reference is made to the appended drawings in which:
  • Figure 1 is a schematic side view of a cross guard rail assembly for shoring tower arranged in accordance with the invention, shown in the mounting position;
  • Figure 2 is a schematic side view of the assembly of Figure 1 shown in the folded position for storage and / or transport; and
  • Figure 3 is a schematic perspective view of a shoring tower during assembly / disassembly, with the assembly of Figure 1 shown during installation / uninstallation.

En se reportant tout d'abord à la figure 1, un ensemble croisillon garde-corps agencé conformément à l'invention, et désigné dans son ensemble par la référence 1, comprend :

  • un premier barreau 2 et un second barreau 3 disposés en X (croisillon), qui sont articulés en rotation à leur intersection en 4 (approximativement en leur milieu) ; leurs extrémités respectives, inférieures et supérieures, sont agencées pour leur solidarisation à des montants verticaux de la tour d'étaiement, comme cela sera expliqué plus loin ; typiquement, les barreaux 2, 3 sont des tronçons tubulaires métalliques à extrémités aplaties (écrasement du tube) et percées de lumières 5 propres à être engagées sur des doigts saillants prévus sur les montants verticaux;
  • une traverse 6 supérieure dont une extrémité 7 est solidaire à rotation en 9 de l'extrémité supérieure de l'un des barreaux (premier barreau 2 sur la figure 1) et dont l'autre extrémité 8 est solidarisable de façon amovible à l'extrémité supérieure de l'autre barreau (second barreau 3 sur la figure 1).
Referring firstly to FIG. 1, a railing spider assembly arranged in accordance with the invention, and generally designated by the reference 1, comprises:
  • a first bar 2 and a second bar 3 arranged at X (cross), which are articulated in rotation at their intersection at 4 (approximately in the middle); their respective ends, lower and upper, are arranged for their attachment to vertical uprights of the shoring tower, as will be explained below; typically, the bars 2, 3 are metallic tubular sections with flattened ends (crushing of the tube) and pierced with holes 5 suitable for being engaged on projecting fingers provided on the vertical uprights;
  • an upper cross member 6, one end 7 of which is rotationally integral at 9 with the upper end of one of the bars (first bar 2 in FIG. 1) and the other end 8 of which is detachably removable at the end top of the other bar (second bar 3 in Figure 1).

Grâce à cet agencement, l'ensemble 1 est propre à occuper deux positions fonctionnelles :

  • une position de montage illustrée à la figure 1, dans laquelle la traverse 6 est solidarisée à l'extrémité supérieure du second barreau 3 en maintenant ainsi lesdits barreaux 2, 3 dans leur conformation en X (croisillon), ledit ensemble ainsi préformé pouvant alors être solidarisé aux montants verticaux de la tour d'étaiement par les extrémités inférieures et supérieures des deux barreaux 2, 3, la traverse 6 formant une lisse supérieure,
    et
  • une position repliée de stockage et/ou de transport illustrée à la figure 2, dans laquelle la traverse 6 est désolidarisée de l'extrémité supérieure du second barreau 3, et les deux barreaux 2, 3 et la traverse 6 sont repliés les uns contre les autres sous forme d'un faisceau de trois tubes accolés, peu encombrant et facile à manipuler.
Thanks to this arrangement, the assembly 1 is able to occupy two functional positions:
  • a mounting position illustrated in FIG. 1, in which the cross-member 6 is secured to the upper end of the second bar 3, thus maintaining said bars 2, 3 in their X-shaped configuration (cross), said assembly thus preformed then being able to be secured to the vertical uprights of the shoring tower by the lower and upper ends of the two bars 2, 3, the cross-member 6 forming an upper rail,
    and
  • a folded position for storage and / or transport illustrated in FIG. 2, in which the cross-member 6 is detached from the upper end of the second bar 3, and the two bars 2, 3 and the cross-member 6 are folded against each other others in the form of a bundle of three joined tubes, compact and easy to handle.

Pour que l'ensemble 1 soit à la fois simple à fabriquer, aisé à manipuler et mécaniquement résistant, on prévoit d'avoir recours aux dispositions complémentaires qui suivent.So that the set 1 is both simple to easy to handle and mechanically resistant, we plans to use additional provisions that follow.

Les extrémités supérieures respectives des deux barreaux 2, 3 sont équipées de deux pattes respectives 10, 11, d'étendue radiale, qui sont percées. La patte 10 du barreau 2 supporte, par l'intermédiaire d'une vis d'assemblage ou analogue, l'extrémité 7 de la traverse 6, de façon à constituer un assemblage rotatif. La lumière 12 de la patte 11 du barreau 3 est propre à recevoir une vis d'assemblage ou analogue traversant une lumière dans l'extrémité 8 de la traverse 6. Avantageusement la lumière 12 est oblongue, comme visible à la figure 2, de manière à conférer un jeu limité propre à faciliter l'accrochage en cinq points de l'ensemble 1 (un point d'accrochage de la traverse 6 sur le barreau 3 et quatre points d'accrochage des barreaux 2, 3 sur les montants verticaux de la tour d'étaiement) .The respective upper ends of the two bars 2, 3 are equipped with two respective tabs 10, 11, of radial extent, which are pierced. Leg 10 of bar 2 supports, by means of a screw assembly or the like, the end 7 of the cross-member 6, so as to constitute a rotary assembly. Light 12 of the tab 11 of the bar 3 is suitable for receiving a screw assembly or the like passing through a light in the end 8 of the cross member 6. Advantageously the light 12 is oblong, as can be seen in FIG. 2, so that provide a limited clearance to facilitate hanging in five points from set 1 (one attachment point for the cross member 6 on the bar 3 and four attachment points bars 2, 3 on the vertical uprights of the tower shoring).

Pour que l'ensemble 1 en position repliée (figure 2) conserve sa conformation en faisceau de tube de façon sûre, on prévoit une patte 13 sur l'un des barreaux (par exemple le barreau 3) en un emplacement tel que cette patte 13, percée, tombe en alignement avec la lumière de l'extrémité 8 de la traverse 6. Une vis d'assemblage ou analogue solidarise les deux pièces.So that the assembly 1 in the folded position (figure 2) retains its conformation in a tube bundle so safe, there is a tab 13 on one of the bars (for example the bar 3) in a location such as this leg 13, pierced, falls in alignment with the light of the end 8 of the cross-member 6. A connecting screw or analog secures the two parts.

Avantageusement, les deux barreaux 2, 3 sont pourvus de parties saillantes respectives disposées entre leur articulation 4 et leurs extrémités supérieures respectives et conformées de manière que, dans la position de montage illustrée à la figure 1, ces deux parties saillantes constituent ensemble une sous-lisse complétant la fonction de garde-corps entre la lisse supérieure constituée par la traverse 6 et les portions inférieures des barreaux 2, 3 écartées l'une de l'autre. De façon simple, chaque partie saillante peut être constituée par un tronçon allongé 14 (par exemple tronçon tubulaire, fer plat ou en L, ...) coudé en L et solidarisé (notamment soudé) au barreau respectif : on constitue une sous-lisse, discontinue, qui complète efficacement la protection dans la zone du croisillon où les deux barreaux 2, 3 convergent l'un vers l'autre.Advantageously, the two bars 2, 3 are with respective projecting parts arranged between their joint 4 and their upper ends respective and shaped so that in the position assembly illustrated in Figure 1, these two parts protruding together constitute a sub-rail completing the railing function between the top rail constituted by the cross-member 6 and the lower portions bars 2, 3 spaced from each other. In a way simple, each projecting part can be constituted by an elongated section 14 (for example tubular section, iron flat or L-shaped, ...) angled L-shaped and secured (in particular welded) to the respective bar: a sub-beam is formed, discontinuous, which effectively completes protection in the cross section where the two bars 2, 3 converge towards each other.

A la figure 3 est illustrée une tour d'étaiement en cours de montage. Cette tour, en général de contour rectangulaire, comprend quatre montants 15 verticaux entretoisés qui reposent inférieurement sur des vérins à vis 16 respectifs et qui se terminent supérieurement, une fois la tour achevée, par des vérins à vis de support de poutres de soutien (non montrés). Dans l'exemple illustré, deux montants 15 sont solidarisés par des barres 17 horizontales, pour constituer des structures de panneaux en échelle E qui sont superposés pour former deux faces opposées de la tour.In Figure 3 is illustrated a shoring tower during assembly. This tower, usually in outline rectangular, includes four uprights 15 vertical braced which rest lower on cylinders to respective screws 16 and which terminate at the top, a once the tower is completed, by screw jacks supporting the support beams (not shown). In the example shown, two uprights 15 are secured by bars 17 horizontal, to form panel structures in scale E which are superimposed to form two faces opposite of the tower.

Les panneaux en échelle E, qui sont classiquement entretoisés par des croisillons, sont ici entretoisés par des ensembles croisillon garde-corps 1 conformes à l'invention comme visible à l'étage inférieur, déjà installé, visible à la figure 3. Les deux ensembles croisillon garde-corps 1 de l'étage inférieur sont mis en place par l'installateur depuis le sol, en positionnant les lumières 5 précitées des extrémités des barreaux 2, 3 sur les doigts saillants visibles en 18 sur les montants 15 (les parties 14 formant sous-lisses n'ont pas été illustrées pour rendre le dessin mieux lisible).E-scale panels, which are conventionally braced by braces, are here braced by railing brace sets 1 conforming to the invention as visible on the lower floor, already installed, visible in figure 3. The two sets railing spider 1 of the lower floor are set place by the installer from the ground, positioning the aforementioned lights 5 of the ends of the bars 2, 3 on the protruding fingers visible at 18 on the uprights 15 (the parts 14 forming sub-stringers have not been illustrated to make the drawing easier to read).

Un plancher 19 est alors installé et l'installateur 20, monté sur ce plancher, est protégé par la lisse 6 pour procéder à l'installation des panneaux en échelle E de l'étage au-dessus et des ensembles croisillon garde-corps 1 correspondants. A la figure 3, l'installateur a déployé un ensemble 1 pour le mettre dans sa conformation de montage et est en train de positionner cet ensemble sur les montants 15 en commençant par loger les deux lumières 5 supérieures sur les doigts correspondants.A floor 19 is then installed and the installer 20, mounted on this floor, is protected by the arm 6 to install the E-scale panels of the floor above and of the railing brace sets 1 correspondents. In Figure 3, the installer has deployed a set 1 to put it in its conformation mounting and is positioning this assembly on the uprights 15 starting by housing the two lights 5 upper on the corresponding fingers.

Une fois le deuxième étage monté, un plancher 19 est installé plus haut et, depuis le deuxième étage, l'installateur monte le troisième étage dans les mêmes conditions de sécurité, et l'opération se poursuit jusqu'à l'achèvement de la tour.Once the second floor is installed, a floor 19 is installed higher and, from the second floor, the installer climbs the third floor in the same security conditions, and the operation continues until completion of the tower.

Grâce aux dispositions conformes à l'invention, l'installateur travaille toujours en sécurité, aussi bien au montage qu'au démontage de la tour. Il faut souligner que cette sécurité résulte de pièces essentielles constitutives de la tour d'étaiement et que, du fait de l'intégration structurelle de la traverse 6 avec les deux barreaux 2, 3 du croisillon, il n'est pas possible de construire la tour d'étaiement sans que les pièces de sécurité (lisses, éventuellement sous-lisses) y soient nécessairement intégrées.Thanks to the arrangements according to the invention, the installer always works safely, as well during assembly and disassembly of the tower. You need to underline that this security results from essential parts of the shoring tower and that, due to structural integration of sleeper 6 with the two bars 2, 3 of the cross, it is not possible to build the shoring tower without the pieces of security (smooth, possibly sub-smooth) necessarily integrated.
