Description

TECHNISCHES GEBIETTECHNICAL AREA

Die vorliegende Erfindung bezieht sich auf das Gebiet der Schutzeinrichtungen im Gebirge oder in anderen Hanglagen. Sie betrifft eine insbesondere gegen Steinschlag und Geröllabgänge oder Schnee wirksame Hangschutzanlage.The present invention relates to the field of protective devices in the mountains or in other slopes. It relates to a particular against stone chipping and debris or snow effective slope protection system.

STAND DER TECHNIKSTATE OF THE ART

In gebirgigen, felsigen Gegenden finden sich häufig mehr oder weniger steile Hanglagen, über die loses Geröll oder einzelne Steinbrocken hangabwärts rollen und in tiefer liegenden Abschnitten an Wegen, Strassen, Häusern oder anderen Überbauungen Schäden anrichten und Menschenleben gefährden können. Dies ist insbesondere dort der Fall, wo natürliche Hindernisse wie Bäume oder Wald fehlen oder nicht im erforderlichen Mass vorhanden sind. An derartigen Stellen werden gezielt Schutzmassnahmen ergriffen, zu denen insbesondere Fang- oder Schutznetze zählen.In mountainous, rocky areas, there are often more or less steep slopes, over which loose boulders or individual rocks can roll down the slope and cause damage in deeper areas of roads, roads, houses or other buildings and endanger human life. This is especially the case where natural obstacles such as trees or forest are missing or not available to the required extent. In such places targeted protective measures are taken, which include in particular fishing or safety nets.

Die Druckschrift DE 20 2013 103 524 U1 offenbart beispielsweise ein Steinschlag-Fangnetz mit mindestens zwei Pfosten, die jeweils einen in oder auf dem Boden verankerbaren Träger enthalten, wobei der Träger einen sich im Belastungsfall gezielt plastisch verformbaren Abschnitt aufweist, der die Funktion eines Energieabsorptions- bzw. Bremselementsystems hat. Ein solcher Pfosten weist mindestens ein an dem unteren Abschnitt des Trägers angebrachtes Versteifungsblech auf, das senkrecht zu den Flanschen des Trägers ausgerichtet ist.The publication DE 20 2013 103 524 U1 discloses, for example, a rockfall safety net with at least two posts each containing a support which can be anchored in or on the ground, wherein the support has a selectively plastically deformable section in the load case, which has the function of an energy absorption or braking element system. Such a post has at least one stiffening plate attached to the lower portion of the carrier, which is oriented perpendicular to the flanges of the carrier.

Die Druckschrift EP 1 398 417 A1 beschreibt ein Netzelement zum Abbremsen bewegter Massen oder zur Sicherung gegen Materialverschiebungen, welches ein Netz umfasst, wobei das Netz mindestens zwei Lagen aufweist zur Erhöhung der Bruchkraft des Netzelementes. Das Netz ist ein Drahtgeflecht oder ein Ringnetz. Das Netz ist im Wesentlichen aus Stahldraht und/oder Eisendraht gebildet, wobei der Stahl- bzw. Eisendraht vorzugsweise verzinkt oder beschichtet ist. Das Netzelement umfasst Trägerelemente, um welche das Netz zur Bildung der Lagen gewickelt ist. Die Trägerelemente sind im Wesentlichen Rohrstücke, um zur Montage des Netzelementes ein Tragseil hindurchführen zu können.The publication EP 1 398 417 A1 describes a network element for braking moving masses or for securing against material displacements, which comprises a network, wherein the network has at least two layers to increase the breaking force of the network element. The net is a wire mesh or a ring net. The net is essentially formed from steel wire and / or iron wire, wherein the steel or iron wire is preferably galvanized or coated. The network element comprises support elements around which the network is wound to form the layers. The support elements are essentially pipe sections in order to be able to pass a carrying cable for mounting the network element.

Die Druckschrift EP 1 870 522 B1 zeigt schematisch ein Auffangnetz, das insbesondere für Steinschlag- und Schneeverbauungen verwendet wird, und zu diesem Zwecke beispielsweise an einem Abhang installiert ist. Mit ihm wird erreicht, dass herunterfallende Steine, Gehölz, Murgang, Geschiebe oder ähnliches bzw. Schneelawinen sicher aufgefangen werden. Dieses Auffangnetz besteht beispielsweise aus herkömmlichen ineinander gewundenen Ringelementen. Es ist hierbei über Tragseile von entsprechenden im Boden verankerten Stützen gehalten, welche ihrerseits von Rückhalteseilen gesichert sind. Die Rückhalteseile sind zur Dämpfung beim Hineinfallen eines Felsbrockens oder dergleichen jeweils mit einer speziellen Vorrichtung bestückt. Es können aber auch mehrere solcher Vorrichtungen pro Rückhalteseil vorgesehen sein.The publication EP 1 870 522 B1 schematically shows a safety net, which is used in particular for rockfall and snow build-up, and is installed for this purpose, for example, on a slope. With him it is achieved that falling stones, wood, debris, debris or the like or snow avalanches are safely collected. This safety net consists for example of conventional intertwined ring elements. It is held here on supporting cables of corresponding anchored in the ground supports, which in turn are secured by retaining ropes. The retaining ropes are each equipped with a special device for damping when falling in a boulder or the like. However, it is also possible to provide a plurality of such devices per retaining rope.

Die Druckschrift WO 2009/052950 A1 offenbart eine Verbauung mit einem Auffangnetz, welches an seinen zwei Längsseiten an Tragseilen aufgespannt ist, und mit Stützen, an welchen die Tragseile gehalten sind und welche über Rückhalteseile an Verankerungen verankert sind. Die Tragseile sind über Bremsvorrichtungen an den Verankerungen befestigt.The publication WO 2009/052950 A1 discloses a construction with a safety net, which is stretched on its two longitudinal sides of supporting cables, and with supports, on which the supporting cables are held and which are anchored via retaining ropes to anchors. The suspension cables are attached to the anchorages via braking devices.

Die Druckschrift FR 2669047 A1 schliesslich offenbart eine dynamische Schutzbarriere, die von einem Mesh-Netzwerk gebildet und an einer oberen Kante an einem oberen Kabel aufgehängt und an einem unteren Rand von einem unteren Kabel gehalten wird. Das Mesh-Netzwerk wird aus einem im Zickzack zwischen dem unteren Kabel und oberen Kabel hin und her geführten Kabel.The publication FR 2669047 A1 finally discloses a dynamic protective barrier formed by a mesh network suspended from an upper edge on an upper cable and held at a lower edge by a lower cable. The mesh network is made up of a zigzag between the lower cable and the upper cable.

Trotz der bereits bestehenden Lösungen besteht der Wunsch, spezielle "Netze für Naturgefahren" zu entwickeln, weil die auf dem Markt verfügbaren und bisher untersuchten Zaunanlagen und -systeme sich als technisch sehr aufwändig und komplex erweisen. Massiver Materialeinsatz bei den bekannten Systemen verursachen aufwändige und kostenintensive Montagearbeiten. Zudem halten sich die Monteure aufgrund der aufwändigen Montagearbeiten lange Zeit im Gefahrenbereich auf und sind somit auch lange an Leib und Leben gefährdet. Daneben wird durch den massigen Materialeinsatz das Landschaftsbild in Mitleidenschaft gezogen.Despite existing solutions, there is a desire to develop special "natural hazards networks" because the fences and systems available on the market and previously studied prove to be technically complex and complex. Massive use of materials in the known systems cause complex and costly installation work. In addition, due to the complex assembly work, the fitters spend a long time in the danger zone and are therefore endangered for a long time in life and limb. In addition, the landscape is damaged by the massive use of materials.

Anstelle von komplexen und materialaufwändigen Zaunkonstruktionen mit hohem Montageaufwand sollten daher schlanke, modulartige, einbaufertige Produkte mit einer hohen Funktionalität bereitgestellt werden, gemäss dem Motto "Struktur statt Masse". Ebenso sollten Montage- und Wartungsfreundlichkeit den Anwendern einen Mehrwert bringen. Ein optimiertes Design sollte die Netze diskret ins Landschaftsbild einfügen lassen.Instead of complex and material-consuming fence constructions with high assembly costs, therefore, slim, modular, ready-to-install products with a high functionality should be provided, according to the motto "structure instead of mass". Likewise, installation and maintenance friendliness should bring added value to users. An optimized design should discreetly insert the nets into the landscape.

Die Vorteile einer solchen Lösung lägen auf der Hand; eine werkseitige Vorfertigung erlaubte ein hohes Mass an Qualität, Flexibilität, Schnelligkeit und Wirtschaftlichkeit. Die Montagezeiten "am Hang" könnten deutlich verringert werden. Im Gegensatz zu den bisher verfügbaren Systemen sollten ein Lastnetz und ein Auflegenetz in eine Netzlage integriert sein. Dadurch könnte der Materialeinsatz verringert werden. Mit einer solchen Netzstruktur sollten sowohl kleine Erosionen wie auch grosse Steine sicher aufgefangen werden können. Wenn dazu in das Netz viele kleine "Bremsen" eingebaut würden, könnten mit ein und demselben System verschiedene Ereignisse und unterschiedlichste Energieeinträge sicher aufgefangen werden. In Kombination mit entsprechenden Rand- und Abspannseilen sollte eine solche neuartige Netzstruktur zirka 60% der ankommenden Energien vernichten.The advantages of such a solution would be obvious; a factory prefabrication allowed a high degree of quality, flexibility, speed and efficiency. The installation times "on a slope" could be significantly reduced. In contrast to the systems available so far, a load network and a lay-by network should be integrated into one network layer. This could reduce the use of materials. With such Net structure should be able to safely capture both small erosions as well as large stones. If a lot of small "brakes" were built into the grid, different events and different energy inputs could be safely collected with one and the same system. In combination with corresponding edge and guy ropes, such a novel network structure should destroy about 60% of the incoming energies.

Da die Langlebigkeit sehr wichtig ist, sollten die Seile für die Netzherstellung, die Randeinfassung sowie für die Halteseile aus Edelstahl sein. Die Lebensdauer ohne Einschlag resp. Beschädigung der Systeme sollte bei einer sachgerechten Anwendung mindestens 30 Jahre betragen. Nach dieser Zeit sollten die Systeme immer noch in einem sicheren Zustand sein.Since longevity is very important, the ropes for net making, edging and tethers should be made of stainless steel. The life without impact resp. Damage to the systems should be at least 30 years if used properly. After this time, the systems should still be in a safe state.

Ein ästhetisches Design mit einer hohen Transparenz würde sowohl die Sichtbarkeit im Gelände wie auch das Eigengewicht reduzieren. So könnten die Bauteile in das meist schwer zugängliche Gelände geflogen werden. Defekte Bauteile liessen sich austauschen, was sowohl ökologische wie auch ökonomische Vorteile brächte. Als Rohstoff für die Struktur sollte Aluminium eingesetzt werden. Die Bauteile würden optimiert, damit Produktion und Lagerhaltung schlank gehalten werden können.An aesthetic design with high transparency would reduce both off-road visibility and dead weight. So the components could be flown into the mostly hard to reach area. Defective components could be exchanged, which would bring both ecological and economic benefits. As raw material for the structure aluminum should be used. The components would be optimized so that production and warehousing can be kept slim.

Die verbleibende Restenergie, welche durch ein solches Netz nicht aufgefangen würde, würde sowohl durch die druckbelastete Struktur wie auch durch in der Länge verstellbaren Seilbremsen vernichtet.The remaining residual energy, which would not be absorbed by such a network, would be destroyed both by the pressure-loaded structure as well as by length-adjustable cable brakes.

Durch ein geschicktes Kräftemanagement würden die Anschlag- bzw. die Befestigungspunkte verringert. Dadurch würden sich auch die Montagearbeiten erleichtern und der Aufwand für die Installationen verringern. Die Gefahren bei der Montage würden erheblich reduziert und die Kosten minimiert.A clever force management would reduce the stop or attachment points. This would also facilitate the assembly work and the Reduce effort for the installations. The dangers of assembly would be significantly reduced and the costs minimized.

Ein solches System sollte für unterschiedliche Energieklassen sowohl nach ETAG 27 (European Technical Approvement Guidelines 27) wie auch den Vorschriften des BUWAL (eidg. Bundesamt für Umwelt, Wald und Landschaft) zugelassen werden können.Such a system should be able to be approved for different energy classes according to both ETAG 27 (European Technical Approval Guidelines 27) and SAEFL (Swiss Federal Office for the Environment, Forest and Landscape).
