Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Anlage zum Befahren von Gebäudewänden, die eine am Bauwerk befestige Führungsschiene, eine an Zuggliedern hängende Gondel, wenigstens ein Antriebsglied zur Höhenverstellung der Gondel mittels der Zugglieder und ein mit der Führungsschiene verbundenes Fahrwerk zur Lageänderung der Gondel in der Horizontalen aufweist.The invention relates to a system for driving on building walls, which has a guide rail attached to the structure, a gondola hanging on tension members, at least one drive member for height adjustment of the gondola by means of the tension members and a running gear connected to the guide rail for changing the position of the gondola horizontally .

Durch die US-A-21 78 956 ist eine Anlage zum Befahren von Gebäudewänden dieser Art bekannt. Auf diese Weise ist es zwar möglich, die Gondel mittels eines in der am Bauwerk aufgehängten Führungsschiene abgestützten Fahrwerkes seitlich zu versetzen und durch Längenänderungen der diese tragenden Seile die Gondel anzuheben oder abzusenken, so daß z. B. zum Reinigen einer Fassade nahezu jede Stelle erreichbar ist, die Zuführung der Energie zu der verfahrbaren Gondel, in der die mit den diese tragenden Seile zusammenwirkenden Antriebsglieder angeordnet sind, ist aber mit erheblichen Schwierigkeiten verbunden. Dazu muß nämlich ein Kabel mitgeschleppt und, in besonderer Weise geführt werden. Des weiteren ist von Nachteil, daß diese bekannte Anlage nur an ebenen Gebäudewänden angebracht werden kann, der Einsatzbereich ist somit sehr begrenzt.From US-A-21 78 956 a system for driving on building walls of this type is known. In this way, it is possible to move the gondola laterally by means of a chassis supported in the guide rail suspended from the structure and to raise or lower the gondola by changing the length of the cables carrying it, so that, for. B. for cleaning a facade almost every point is accessible, the supply of energy to the movable gondola, in which the interacting with the ropes carrying these driving elements are arranged, but is associated with considerable difficulties. For this purpose, a cable must be dragged along and guided in a special way. Another disadvantage is that this known system can only be attached to flat building walls, the area of application is therefore very limited.

Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es daher, eine Anlage zum Befahren von Gebäudewänden zu schaffen, die nicht nur äußerst vielseitig einsetzbar ist, sondern die auch klein baut und einen geringen Bauaufwand erfordert und somit wirtschaftlich hergestellt werden kann. Vor allem aber soll erreicht werden, daß die zum Verfahren des Fahrwerkes und zur Höhenverstellung der Gondel erforderlichen Antriebsglieder stationär angeordnet werden können, so daß die Zuführung der Energie zu diesen problemlos zu bewerkstelligen und Schleppkabel oder Schleifleitungen nicht notwendig sind, aber dennoch soll eine hohe Betriebssicherheit bei einfacher Handhabung gegeben sein.The object of the invention is therefore to provide a system for driving on building walls, which is not only extremely versatile, but also has a small size and requires little construction and can therefore be manufactured economically. Above all, however, the aim is to ensure that the drive elements required for moving the undercarriage and for adjusting the height of the nacelle can be arranged in a stationary manner, so that the supply of energy to them can be accomplished without problems and trailing cables or conductor lines are not necessary, but high operational reliability is nevertheless intended be given with simple handling.

Gemäß der Erfindung ist die Anlage zum Befahren von Gebäudewänden der eingangs genannten Art, mittels der dies zu erreichen ist, dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß zur vertikalen und/oder horizontalen Verstellung der Gondel zwei beidenends der Führungsschiene mit den Zuggliedern verbundene Antriebsglieder ortsfest angeordnet sind, daß die Gondel an den freien Enden der Zugglieder aufgehängt ist und daß die Antriebsglieder einzeln oder gemeinsam gleichsinnig oder gegenläufig zueinander gesteuert antreibbar sind.According to the invention, the system for driving on building walls of the type mentioned, by means of which this can be achieved, characterized in that for vertical and / or horizontal adjustment of the gondola two drive members connected at both ends of the guide rail to the tension members are arranged in a fixed manner that the Gondola is suspended at the free ends of the tension members and that the drive members can be driven individually or together in the same direction or in opposite directions to one another in a controlled manner.

Gemäß nebengeordneten Ausgestaltungen der Anlage zum Befahren von Gebäudewänden ist vorgesehen, zwei Antriebsglieder an der Gondel anzubringen, die jeweils mit einem Zugglied verbunden sind, deren freie Enden an den Endbereichen der Führungsschiene am Bauwerk befestigt sind, und die Antriebsglieder einzeln oder gemeinsam gleichsinnig oder gegenläufig zueinander gesteuert antreiben (Anspruch 2) oder zwei beidenends der Führungsschiene mit den Zuggliedern verbundene Antriebsglieder ortsfest anzuordnen, die Gondel an den freien Enden des einen Zuggliedes aufzuhängen und das freie Ende des anderen Zuggliedes am Fahrwerk zu befestigen und die Antriebsglieder einzeln oder gemeinsam gleichsinnig oder gegenläufig zueinander gesteuert anzutreiben (Anspruch 3) oder zwei mit Abstand zueinander angeordnete Antriebsglieder vorzusehen, die jeweils mit einem Zugglied verbunden sind und von denen das eine Antriebsglied in einem Endbereich der Führungsschiene und das andere Antriebsglied am Fahrwerk angeordnet ist, am freien Ende des Zuggliedes des im Endbreich der Führungsschiene angeordneten Antriebsgliedes die Gondel aufzuhängen, das freie Ende des anderen Zuggliedes im Endbereich der Führungsschiene am Bauwerk zu befestigen und die Antriebsglieder einzeln oder gemeinsam gleichsinnig oder gegenläufig zueinander gesteuert anzutreiben (Anspruch 4) oder zwei mit räumlichem Abstand zueinander angeordnete Antriebsglieder vorzusehen, die jeweils ein Zugglied aufweisen und von denen das eine Antriebsglied in einem Endbereich der Führungsschiene und das andere Antriebsglied an der Gondel angeordnet ist, das freie Ende des mit dem im Endbereich der Führungsschiene angeordneten Antriebsglied verbundenen Zuggliedes am Fahrwerk zu befestigen, das freie Ende des anderen Zuggliedes im Endbereich der Führungsschiene am Bauwerk zu befestigen und die Antriebsglieder einzeln oder gemeinsam gleichsinnig oder gegenläufig zueinander gesteuert anzutreiben (Anspruch 5).According to secondary configurations of the system for driving on building walls, it is provided to attach two drive elements to the nacelle, each of which is connected to a tension element, the free ends of which are attached to the end regions of the guide rail on the structure, and the drive elements individually or together in the same direction or in opposite directions to one another drive controlled (claim 2) or two at both ends of the guide rail with the tension members connected drive members to be fixed, the gondola to hang on the free ends of one tension member and to fasten the free end of the other tension member to the chassis and to drive the drive members individually or jointly in the same direction or in opposite directions to each other (claim 3) or to provide two spaced drive links, each connected to a tension member and of which one drive link is arranged in an end area of the guide rail and the other drive link is arranged on the undercarriage, to hang the nacelle on the free end of the tension member of the drive link arranged in the end area of the guide rail, the free end of the other tension link in the end area of the guide rail on the structure fasten and to drive the drive members individually or jointly in the same direction or in opposite directions to one another (claim 4) or to provide two drive members arranged at a spacing from one another, each having a tension member and of which the one drive member is arranged in one end region of the guide rail and the other drive member on the nacelle, to fix the free end of the tension member connected to the drive member arranged in the end region of the guide rail to the chassis, to fasten the free end of the other tension member in the end region of the guide rail to the structure and the To drive drive elements individually or jointly in the same direction or in opposite directions to each other (claim 5).

Zweckmäßig ist es hierbei, die Zugglieder durch Zugseile oder Ketten zu bilden, die mittels vorzugsweise jeweils zweier an dem Fahrwerk senkrecht zueinander angeordneter Umlenkrollen oder dgl. von der Horizontalen in die Vertikale übergeführt sind.It is expedient here to form the tension members by means of tension cables or chains, which are preferably transferred from the horizontal to the vertical by means of preferably two deflection rollers or the like arranged perpendicular to one another on the chassis.

Als Antriebsglieder sollten umsteuerbare elektrische Getriebemotore vorgesehen werden, die jeweils eine Seil-oder Kettentrommel zur Aufnahme der Zugseile oder Ketten aufweisen, es ist aber auch möglich, als Antriebsglieder jeweils eine Treibscheibe, eine Durchzugswinde oder ein Spill, vorzugsweise mit zugeordnetem Antriebsmotor, zu verwenden.Reversible electric geared motors should be provided as drive elements, each of which has a cable or chain drum for receiving the pulling cables or chains, but it is also possible to use a traction sheave, a pulling winch or a capstan, preferably with an associated drive motor, as drive elements.

Wird eine Anlage zum Befahren von Gebäudewänden gemäß der Erfindung ausgebildet, so ist es möglich, eine über Zugglieder mit den zugeordneten Antriebsgliedern trieblich verbundene Gondel sowohl seitlich zu verfahren als auch in der Höhe zu verstellen, ohne daß dazu besondere Vorkehrungen zu treffen sind oder ein größerer Aufwand zur Zuführung der Energie erforderlich ist. Nach einer bevorzugten Ausgestaltung können nämlich beide Antriebsglieder stationär angeordnet werden, so daß diesen die notwendige Energie, ohne daß dies Schleppkabel oder Schleifleitungen bedingt, ohne Schwierigkeiten zuzuführen ist, dennoch kann mit Hilfe der in entsprechender Weise zu steuernden Antriebsglieder die Gondel beliebig in der dieser zugeordneten Ebene verstellt werden. Bei Verwendung der vorschlagsgemäßen Vorrichtung als Fassadenreinigungsgerät kann demnach nahezu jede Stelle einer Gebäudefassade in kurzer Zeit erreicht werden.If a system for driving on building walls is designed in accordance with the invention, it is possible to move a gondola which is connected to the associated drive members via pulling members, as well as to adjust the height, without having to take any special precautions or a larger one Effort to supply the energy is required. According to a preferred embodiment, namely both drive elements can be arranged in a stationary manner, so that the necessary energy can be supplied to them without difficulty, without this necessitating trailing cables or conductor lines, nevertheless, with the aid of the drive elements to be controlled in a corresponding manner, the nacelle can be arbitrarily assigned to it Level can be adjusted. When using the proposed device as a facade cleaning device, almost any point on a building facade can be reached in a short time.

Da aufgrund der erfindungsgemäßen Ausgestaltungen das Fahrwerk klein bemessen werden kann, ist dieses unmittelbar an einer Dachkante und auch um Kurven mit kleinen Radien zu verfahren. Und da lediglich das Fahrwerk und die an diesem aufgehängte Gondel zu verstellen sind, nicht aber die Antriebsglieder, ist der dazu benötigte Energieaufwand gegenüber der bekannten Ausgestaltung erheblich reduziert. Bei hoher Betriebssicherheit und einfacher Handhabung ist die vorschlagsgemäße Anlage demnach, zumal auch Steigungen ohne weiteres befahren werden können, in vielseitiger und vorteilhafter Weise verwendbar.Since the undercarriage can be dimensioned small due to the configurations according to the invention, it can be moved directly on a roof edge and also around curves with small radii. And since only the undercarriage and the nacelle suspended from it can be adjusted, but not the drive elements, the energy expenditure required for this is compared to the known design significantly reduced. With a high level of operational safety and simple handling, the proposed system can therefore be used in a versatile and advantageous manner, especially since inclines can also be negotiated without difficulty.

Die in den Figuren 1 bis 6 dargestellte und mit 1 bezeichnete Anlage ist an einem Bauwerk 2 angebracht und dient zur Verstellung einer Gondel 10 in vertikaler und horizontaler Richtung, um beispielsweise die Fassade 3 des Bauwerkes 2 leicht reinigen zu können. Die Anlage 1 besteht hierbei im wesentlichen aus einer an dem Bauwerk 2 mittels Haltern 12 befestigten Führungsschiene 11, einem auf diesem verfahrbaren Fahrwerk 13 sowie zwei Antriebsgliedern 21 und 31, die über Zugglieder 22 und 23 mit der Gondel 10 in Triebverbindung stehen. Das Fahrwerk 13 ist mittels Laufrollen 14 auf der im Querschnitt T-förmigen Führungsschiene 11 abgestützt.The system shown in Figures 1 to 6 and designated 1 is attached to a building 2 and is used to adjust a gondola 10 in the vertical and horizontal directions, for example, to be able to easily clean the facade 3 of the building 2. The system 1 consists essentially of a guide rail 11 fastened to the structure 2 by means of brackets 12, a carriage 13 movable on the latter and two drive members 21 and 31 which are in drive connection with the nacelle 10 via tension members 22 and 23. The carriage 13 is supported by rollers 14 on the cross-sectionally T-shaped guide rail 11.

Als Antriebsglieder 21 und 31 sind hierbei Elektromotore 23 bzw. 33 vorgesehen, die jeweils mit einem Getriebe 24 bzw. 34 ausgestattet sind. Und mit den Getrieben 24 bzw. 34 sind Seiltrommeln 25 bzw. 35 gekoppelt, auf denen die aus Zugseilen 26 bzw. 36 bestehenden Zugglieder 22 bzw. 32 aufgerollt werden können. Über Umlenkrollen 15, 16 und 17 bzw. 18, 19 und 20 werden die Zugseile 26 bzw. 36 zwischen den Seiltrommeln 25 bzw. 35 und der Gondel 10, die somit an den Zugseilen 26, 36 aufgehängt ist, geführt. Die Elektromotore 23 und 33 sind einzeln oder gemeinsam gleichsinnig oder gegenläufig antreibbar.Electric motors 23 and 33 are provided as drive elements 21 and 31, each of which is equipped with a gear 24 or 34. And with the gearboxes 24 and 34, cable drums 25 and 35 are coupled, on which the tension members 22 and 32 consisting of pull cables 26 and 36 can be rolled up. The pulling cables 26 and 36 are guided between the cable drums 25 and 35 and the nacelle 10, which is thus suspended from the pulling cables 26, 36, via deflection rollers 15, 16 and 17 or 18, 19 and 20. The electric motors 23 and 33 can be driven individually or together in the same direction or in opposite directions.

Um die Höhenlage der Gondel 10 bei der Ausführungsvariante nach Figur 1 zu verändern, sind die beiden Elektromotore 23 und 33 gegenläufig anzutreiben. Je nach Drehrichtung der Seiltrommeln 25 und 35 werden somit die Zugseile 26 und 36 aufgerollt oder abgespult, so daß die Gondel 10 angehoben oder abgesenkt wird. Werden dagegen die Elektromotore 23 und 33 gleichsinnig angetrieben und die Seiltrommeln 25 und 35 mit gleicher Winkelgeschwindigkeit verdreht, so wird das Fahrwerk 13 auf der Führungsschiene 11 je nach Drehrichtung nach rechts oder links verfahren. Selbstverständlich ist es aber auch möglich, die Seiltrommeln 25 und 35 mit gleicher Drehrichtung aber unterschiedlichen Winkelgeschwindigkeiten anzutreiben, die Gondel 10 wird in diesem Falle seitlich versetzt und gleichzeitig angehoben oder abgesenkt.In order to change the height of the nacelle 10 in the embodiment variant according to FIG. 1, the two electric motors 23 and 33 are to be driven in opposite directions. Depending on the direction of rotation of the cable drums 25 and 35, the pull cables 26 and 36 are thus rolled up or unwound so that the nacelle 10 is raised or lowered. If, on the other hand, the electric motors 23 and 33 are driven in the same direction and the cable drums 25 and 35 are rotated at the same angular speed, the carriage 13 is moved on the guide rail 11 to the right or left depending on the direction of rotation. Of course, it is also possible to drive the cable drums 25 and 35 with the same direction of rotation but different angular velocities, in this case the nacelle 10 is laterally offset and at the same time raised or lowered.

Bei der Ausgestaltung nach Figur 2 sind die beiden Antriebsglieder 21 und 31 an der Gondel 10 angebracht und die freien Enden der Zugglieder 22 und 32 sind über Anlenkungen 27 bzw. 37 an dem Bauwerk 2 befestigt. Durch gesteuerten Antrieb der Antriebsglieder 21 und 31 kann somit in gleicher Weise das Fahrwerk 13 auf der Führungsschiene 11 verfahren und/oder die Höhenlage der Gondel 10 verändert werden.In the embodiment according to FIG. 2, the two drive members 21 and 31 are attached to the nacelle 10 and the free ends of the tension members 22 and 32 are attached to the structure 2 via articulations 27 and 37, respectively. By controlled drive of the drive members 21 and 31 can thus moving the carriage 13 on the guide rail 11 in the same way and / or changing the height of the nacelle 10.

Gemäß Figur 3 ist das Zugglied 22 des Antriebsgliedes 21 mittels einer Anlenkung 27' an dem Fahrwerk 13 befestigt. Mit Hilfe des Antriebsgliedes 21, das gemäß Figur 4 aber auch auf dem Fahrwerk 13 angeordnet sein kann, wobei das freie Ende des Zuggliedes 22 über die Anlenkung 27 an dem Bauwerk 2 befestigt ist, wird somit das Fahrwerk 13 auf der Führungsschiene 11 verfahren, die Höhenlage der Gondel 10 wird dagegen mittels des Antriebsgliedes 31, das über das Zugg.lied 32 mit der Gondel 10 in Triebverbindung steht, verändert.According to FIG. 3, the tension member 22 of the drive member 21 is fastened to the chassis 13 by means of a linkage 27 '. With the help of the drive member 21, which, however, can also be arranged on the undercarriage 13 according to FIG. 4, the free end of the tension member 22 being fastened to the structure 2 via the articulation 27, the undercarriage 13 is thus moved on the guide rail 11, which The height of the gondola 10, on the other hand, is changed by means of the drive member 31, which is in driving connection with the gondola 10 via the tension member 32.

Bei der Ausführungsvariante nach Figur 5 ist das Antriebsglied 31 an der Gondel 10 angebracht und das freie Ende des Zuggliedes 32 ist mittels der Anlenkung 37 an dem Bauwerk 2 befestigt. Die Höhenverstellung der Gondel 10 wird somit mit Hilfe des Antriebsgliedes 31 bewerkstelligt. Zum seitlichen Versetzen des Fahrwerkes 13 auf der Führungsschiene 11 dient wiederum das Antriebsglied 21, dessen zugeordnetes Zugglied 22 mittels der Anlenkung 27' mit dem Fahrwerk 13 verbunden ist.5, the drive member 31 is attached to the nacelle 10 and the free end of the tension member 32 is fastened to the structure 2 by means of the linkage 37. The height adjustment of the nacelle 10 is thus accomplished with the aid of the drive member 31. The drive member 21, the associated tension member 22 of which is connected to the chassis 13 by means of the linkage 27 ', is again used for laterally displacing the undercarriage 13 on the guide rail 11.
