- FIG 4 April 16, 1968 w.
- ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE A prefabricable wooden construction element of parts of cylinders cut from logs parallel to the annual growth rings of the log, which is so stiffened that it can be transported without being substantially deformed, said wooden construction element having the property that the shrinkage and swelling behavior can easily be predicted.
- the prevent invention relates to a construction clement comprising a plurality of wooden elemental parts joined L the cross section of a circular hollow cylinder.
- a construction clement comprising a plurality of wooden elemental parts joined L the cross section of a circular hollow cylinder.
- the invention essentially consists in that the elemental parts are joined to a rigid unit and in that this unit is rigidly supported with respect to its shape by at least one stiiiening element.
- the elemental parts rigidly connected with one another act against bending stresses or buckling stresses as a static unit so that the resistance of a construction element against bending and tbuckling stresses, respectively, is materially increased with least possible material consumption. So, not only transport of the construction elements in the factory and the site, respectively, is facilitated but, in many cases in which only the use of construction elements with relatively large surface is economically feasible, made possible at all.
- the stiffening elements provide the advantage of the single construction elements over the board construction used up till now to not show swell or to shrink because now swelling and shrinking of the construction element in total is avoided or restricted to a minimum. Thereby it becomes feasible to rigidly join the single element parts, f.i. by glueing or screwing, because in absence of a material swelling and shrinking, respectively, of the construction elements, no or but very unimportant stresses act on the joints which stresses might cause bursting of the joint between the single element parts.
- the elemental parts may be arranged in a great number of variants.
- the single elemental parts are arranged side by 3,377,753 Patented Apr. 16, 1968 side or annexed with one another so that the generatrices of these elemental parts, having the cross section of part of a circular hollow cylinder, are in parallel relation.
- the stiffening elements are arranged transverse to the generatrices of the elemental parts and rigidly connected with these elemental parts.
- the stiffening elements not only can be used to connect the single elemental parts to a rigid unit but it is also possible to use these stiffening elements for stiffening single annular hollow cylindrical elemental parts, particularly of elemental parts subjected to severe stresses.
- connection means for connecting adjacent construction elements
- these connection means can be formed by extensions of the stitfening elements, which extensions may be introduced in correspondingly shaped recesses of the adjacent construction element, whereby adjacent construction elements may be, so to speak, put together.
- the stiffening elements are formed by wooden ledges which are glued to the elemental parts adjacent the ends of the legs of the C- or U-shaped cross section thereof, which elemental parts, if desired, may be glued with one another.
- the stiffening ledges and the ends of the legs of the elemental parts, respectively have recesses into which are put the ends of the ledges of the elemental parts and of the stiffening ledges respectively.
- a snugly seated joint between stiffening ledges and elemental parts is achieved so that the rigid connection of the single parts to a unit not only is secured by glueing but also assisted by the snugly seated joints.
- Such a construction makes it possible to arrange the elemental parts so that they form two walls being essentially in parallel relation and being connected with one another by the stiffening ledges. In this manner a twin wall is provided, whereby the air filled space between the single walls has an insulating elfect.
- this space may be filled by suitable insulating filling material or the like.
- suitable insulating filling material or the like.
- the stiffening elements may be, according to the invention, also formed by rods which pass through the elemental parts and join these elemental parts by pressing means, f.i. screws, to a unit, whereby between adjacent elemental parts spacing elements are provided. These spacing elements prevent damaging of the elemental parts when these elemental parts are pressed together to form a unit.
- the spacing elements may be formed by bushings surrounding the rods, the front ends of the bushings being shaped according to the shape of the circumference of the adjacent elemental part. Thereby a snug seat of the elemental part on these bushings is provided. With such a construction adjacent construction elements can simply be connected by using tubes as the construction elements having the form of rods, whereby the connection means are formed by a female thread in each of these tubes and an extension thereof,
- connection means having the form of ledges, which may be intro- 3 pokerd into a slot confined by two adjacent stiffening ledges.
- connection means and also the stiffening elements can also be used for introducing and fixing, respectively, rigid connection parts, which are used particularly when forming corner joints or the like.
- a further possibility for arrangement of the single elemental parts consists in putting the elemental parts in at least one layer over part of the length of the stiffening elements and rigidly connecting, preferably by glueing, the elemental parts with the stiffening element, whereby the stiffening element is provided with an upper surface formed according to a surface of a circular cylinder and the generatrices of the elemental parts are in parallel relation with respect to the generatriccs of the upper surface of the stiffening element.
- a construction element is provided, which is strengthened at single portions of its axial length, so that the construction element has a greater resistance moment at these portions.
- any requirements with respect to bending moment can be accounted for and with this a wide adaptability in practice is provided.
- Such elements for instance may be used as rail sleepers but also as carrier element in wooden constructions and so on.
- wooden sleepers which in view of its production are not tension free, cracks may form through which water might protrude to points insufficiently impregnated or not impregnated at all. At these points rotting starts.
- this danger is essentially reduced on account of the groove like elemental parts having essentially no shrinking and swelling tendency, respectively, which elemental parts therefore are less subjected to the danger of becoming cracked.
- the rounded shape of the upper side of the sleeper favorites a more rapid draining of water after rain and a better anchorage of the sleeper in the ballast. Further, with respect to volume, wood can be saved and the formation of grooves by pressing in the bottom plate can be avoided.

- the trunk half shown in FIG. 1 is subdivided into single groove-like elemental parts 1 by a sawing machine known per se, so, that the surfaces of each of these elemental parts are concentric relative to the trunk axis.
- the wall thicknesses of the single elemental parts 1 may be so graduated that even at the outermost portion of the trunk a usable elemental part can be obtained the outer surface of which corresponds to the mantle surface of the trunk half.
- Such an elemental part is in the following called outer shell.
- the core piece which can not be further subdivided, may be used according to the invention. Subdividing the trunk in the indicated manner secures a good yield, because there is no waste with the exception of saw dust.
- the elemental parts 1 obtained may be used in its initial form of full shells, i.e. in form of one half of a hollow circular cylinder, but can be subdivided prior to joining to a construction element as desired, f.i. in sector elements.
- Such partial elements are called partial shells in the following.
- FIGS. 2 and 3 show partial shells 2 obtained from partial elements ll, shown in FIG. 1, by suitable subdividing and joint to a construction element.
- the partial shells Z are put side by side and connected along its longitudinal ledge whereby the connection can be effected along radial faces and mantle faces (FIG. 3), respectively, or check to cheek (FIG. 2).
- the partial shells 2 are glued together although the parts may be screwed together or the like, if desired.
- the adhesive by which said glueing is effected, may be of any kind suitable for glueing wooden elements.
- the adhesive layers are not shown in the drawings, but it may be easily understood that such adhesive layers may be present wherever two wooden parts of the construction element are positioned close to each other or where these elements contact each other.
- the Wave like plates obtained by glucing the partial shells 2 are supported by stiffening elements 32 in a manner to stiffen its shape.
- These stiffening elements 32 are formed of wooden ledges, which are glued with the single partial shells 2.
- the partial shells may simply be put onto the stiffening ledge 32 and glued. However it is better to provide recesses 5 (FIG. 3) in the stiffening ledge into which recess the longitudinal edges of the sector like partial shells 2 can be put and glued.
- a cavity 7 is formed, which for its own has a sflencing and heat insulating effect, which effect can be increased by filling this cavity with an insulating material, such as glass wool or the like. Within this cavity 7 various installation such as warm air heating equipment may be included.
- FIG. 4 shows an embodiment with which full shells are arranged to be tangent to one another, whereby glueing is effected along the side faces of these full shells.
- wave like plates formed of full shells '1 or of partial shells 2 so that the convex races of these wave like plates are either directed in only one direction or are alternately directed in one direction and in the opposite direction.
- the single partial shells and full shells, respectively may be c0nnected with one another so that they are arranged in superimposed relation and either a radial face is con nected with a cylindrical mantle face (FIG. 3) or both radial faces are connected with a cylindrical mantle face.
- FIG. 5 shows a construction element the stiffening ledge 32 of which has recesses 36 into which are introduced both longitudinal edges of the full shells ll. With this the pressure in the gap 8, necessary for glueing the full shells 1, can be established by pressing the full shells 1 with its longitudinal edges into the recess 36.
- FIG. 7 shows a wave like plate formed of outer shells 3,3.
- the outer shells 3 are arranged opposed to the outer shells 3 so that with the outer shells 3 the portion with the greater wall thickness lies at the front end but with the outer shells 3 lies at the rear end of the construction element.
- T o facilitate connection of these wave like plates with adjacent construction elements and the stiffening ledges, not shown, the outer mantle faces of the outer shells 3, 3 are flattened at 4.
- FIGS. 8 and 9 also flat plate like elemental parts may be used at forming wave like boards or construction elements, respectively.
- FIG. 8 shows plate like elements 6, which at their side faces are connected with the side faces of the full shells 1. In this manner a wave like course of the wave like board results.
- FIG. 9 the full shells 1 are arranged so that the cavities are all directed in the same direction and the adjacent longitudinal edges of the ends of the legs of the cross section of the full shells 1 are connected by plates 6 arranged in vertical relation to these ends of the legs.
- FIGS. 8 and 9 may be assembled with stiffening ledges in similar manner as shown in FIGS. 2 to 6.
- the stiffening ledges could, if desired, also extend through the plate like elements 6.
- FIG. 10 shows that the elemental parts 1, which according to this FIG. 10 are formed of full shells, can be bent prior to glueing.

- FIG. 11 shows a construction element, which represents a rail sleeper.
- the stiffening element 32 has the cross section of a half circle and for instance can be formed by the core piece 1 (FIG. 1). Over this stiffening element 32, which extends over the total length of the sleeper, full shells 1 are put in steplike manner so that the cross section of the sleeper is steplike increased and reduced, respectively. Varying of the cross section conveniently is effected according the vending moment to which the sleeper is subjected by the rails fixed at the flat faces 4 of the outermost full shells 1 with interposition of commonly used base plates.
- the stiffening ledges 32 also provide supporting faces by means of which the construction element rests on supports (not shown).
- the lower full shells 1 are reduced in length as compared with the upper full shells 1, whereby the stiffening ledge 32 extends along the front faces 9 of the lower full shells 1 and is connected with these front faces and with the upper full shells 1.
- stiffening inserts 34 and connection pieces 34 may be provided, which are glued to the full shells 1 and the stiffening ledge 2, respectively.
