Description

Climbing system for a rail-guided climbing frame

The invention relates to a climbing system for a rail-guided climbing frame with climbing rails and climbing shoes for attachment to a structure, designed to support the climbing rails so that they can be moved along the structure. The invention also relates to a corresponding climbing frame and a corresponding climbing protection shield and a method for erecting a structure using a rail-guided climbing frame.

In modern buildings, especially high-rise buildings, it is common to have a central core that houses elevator shafts and stairwells and supports the floors of the building. Such a core is generally made of poured concrete.

In general, such buildings do not have load-bearing external walls. Therefore, the floors remain partially or completely open at the edges for a large part of the construction period. Only the installation of a facade creates a building shell.

These open floors pose numerous health and safety risks. People working on the open edges of the floors are at risk of falling from the structure. People working on the building and members of the public are also at risk of tools, equipment or debris falling from the open edges of the floors.

It is therefore known to provide scaffolding or even protective shields extending around at least part of the perimeter of such a structure. These form a temporary building envelope and preferably also safe working platforms spaced outward from the floors. Preferably, these scaffolding and protective shields are movable at least in the vertical direction to protect the edges of each floor as construction progresses. Such protective shields are usually referred to as anti-climbing shields. The corresponding scaffolding is referred to as climbing scaffolds. Moving these anti-climbing shields in the vertical direction of the structure can be done either with a crane or with a hydraulic The lifting device is supported on the floors of the building. With regard to the transfer process to the next construction phase, in particular the concreting phase, a distinction is made between crane-independent (ie self-climbing) and crane-dependent climbing scaffolds. A crane is required for the basic assembly and disassembly of state-of-the-art self-climbing climbing scaffolds. The climbing units are partially pre-assembled on formwork floors and then moved to the suspension points using the crane.

Climbing frames and climbing protection shields generally have at least one climbing rail, climbing shoes that hold the climbing rail in place during operation and protrude outwards from the edges of the floors. The climbing protection shields also have an enclosure. The climbing shoes allow the respective structure to be moved along the building in a vertical direction and can also be used to lock the position of the structure on floors during operation.

Due to the size and weight of climbing frames and climbing protection signs, they can generally only be attached to a structure if the climbing rails can be adequately supported. In general, such support is required by climbing shoes at so-called suspension points. These suspension points serve to anchor the climbing shoes. These suspension points are usually provided during the manufacture of the respective floors and cast into the concrete. The suspension points can be provided either on a floor or on external floor walls.

This requirement to support climbing protection signs using climbing shoes at at least two suspension points, in particular on the floors of two floors, simultaneously represents a certain restriction on the use of climbing frames and climbing protection signs. These can therefore only be used once at least the first and second floors (in addition to the ground floor) have been erected. Before this, a climbing frame and a climbing protection sign cannot be supported in an appropriate manner. Consequently, no safety measures such as climbing frames or climbing protection shields are planned up to this point. If necessary, additional protection of the floor edges must therefore be provided during construction of the lower floors.

Document GB 2 510 879 A discloses an anti-climbing shield system comprising an anti-climbing shield having a climbing rail adapted to be mounted on and slidable along a structure, and an anti-climbing shield having a support having a base removably attached to the anti-climbing shield and adapted to hold the anti-climbing shield in a vertical orientation prior to mounting the climbing rail to the structure above ground level such that the anti-climbing shield is free-standing.

It is an object of the invention to provide improved protection for floors with open edges. In particular, it is an object of the invention to provide a climbing system by means of which simple and flexible protection of the floor edges is possible both during the erection of the first floors above the ground and of further floors.

This object is achieved by the teaching of the independent claims. Advantageous embodiments are claimed in the subclaims.

A first aspect of the invention relates to a climbing system for a rail-guided climbing frame, comprising:

• Climbing rails;

• a support device designed to support a facade scaffold and to be releasably connected to the climbing rails to form a support structure; and

• Climbing shoes for attachment to a structure, designed to support the supporting structure on the climbing rails so that it can be moved along the structure.

Preferably, the support device in the climbing system is detachably connected to the climbing rails to form a support structure. A second aspect of the invention relates to a rail-guided climbing scaffold with a climbing system and a facade scaffold, wherein the facade scaffold can be or is fastened to the supporting structure.

A third aspect of the invention relates to a climbing protection shield with a climbing frame, wherein an enclosure is attached to one side of the facade frame which faces away from the climbing rails.

A fourth aspect of the invention relates to a method for erecting a structure by means of a rail-guided climbing frame, comprising the following work steps:

• Provision of the support structure at a location where a building is to be erected;

• Mounting the facade scaffolding on the support structure;

• Construction of a first section of the structure;

• Mounting the climbing shoes on the first part of the structure;

• Inserting the climbing rails into the climbing shoes;

• Connecting the climbing rails with the support device to the support structure;

• first lifting of the climbing frame; and

• Construction of a second section of the structure.

Preferably, the detachable connection of the support device and the climbing rails is realized by means of coupling elements, in particular bolts. Furthermore, the facade scaffolding is arranged in a vertical direction on the support device, in particular placed on it. Furthermore, the facade scaffolding is also preferably connected to the climbing rails. Furthermore, the climbing rail can also preferably consist of several individual parts.

A fifth aspect of the invention relates to a coupling element for fastening a facade scaffold to a support, in particular a climbing rail of a climbing system, wherein the coupling element has a fastening plate with at least one hole, in particular at least one hole, in particular an elongated hole, through which a fastening means, in particular a screw, for releasably fastening to the support can be guided in order to be detachably fastened to the support, and has a coupling mechanism in order to be detachably fastened to at least one perforated disc or at least one vertical post of the facade scaffolding.

The coupling element according to the invention has the advantage that a facade scaffold can be connected to a support particularly easily and can also be quickly detached from it again. In particular, the coupling element means that no modifications are required to a commercially available support provided with holes or to a commercially available climbing frame with vertical posts and perforated discs.

A facade scaffolding in the sense of the invention is a self-supporting scaffolding that can stand free-standing on the ground. In particular, it is stabilized by its own construction and support on the ground. It can also stand independently and does not need to be attached to buildings or other surfaces. Preferably, a combination of vertical and horizontal elements, in particular frames, longitudinal bars and diagonal bracing, creates individual scaffolding fields that are connected to one another. In this way, the facade scaffolding can be given additional stability. Preferably, the scaffolding is fall-proof thanks to railings and other components. Facade scaffolding is defined in particular in the standards EN12810 and EN12811. Facade scaffolding is preferably also referred to as free-standing scaffolding. These are described in the standard DIN 4420, Part 2, as of December 1990. Preferably, the facade scaffolding is a frame scaffolding or a single-post scaffolding. Preferably, the facade scaffolding is a modular scaffolding.

A climbing rail in the sense of the invention is preferably a profiled rail. A climbing rail can also preferably consist of several individual parts. For example, the climbing rail can be a double U-profile or several I-profiles joined together lengthwise.

Supporting in the sense of the invention preferably means supporting or bracing from below. Furthermore, support is preferably provided at those points on the facade scaffolding at which its load is carried, in particular on which the facade scaffolding stands. The support device therefore preferably forms a base for the facade scaffolding. The invention is based on the approach of using a conventional facade scaffolding known from the prior art in a first construction phase for erecting the lower floors of a building, in particular the first and second floors above the ground floor, and using the same facade scaffolding as a climbing scaffold for erecting the further floors in a second construction phase.

The invention implements this by providing a climbing system with climbing rails and a support device, which can be connected to form a support structure. When used as intended, the support device of the climbing system is detachably connected to the climbing rails to form a support structure. The support device is designed to support the facade scaffolding. When used as intended, the support device supports the facade scaffolding, in particular the support device supports the facade scaffolding from below. In a first step, the facade scaffolding is placed and/or mounted on the support device. Then, in a first construction phase, a first construction section with at least the first floor and the second floor above the ground floor is erected. During this first construction phase, the facade scaffolding secures the floors of the building. Once the floors of the first floors, in particular the first two floors, of the building have been erected, climbing shoes can be attached to them, in which the climbing rails can be accommodated in a known manner. The climbing rails are connected to the support device to form the support structure in order to support the entire support structure using the climbing shoes on at least one climbing rail. Preferably, the support structure consisting of the support device and the climbing rails forms an L-shaped structure. In other words, the climbing rails are movably supported on the climbing shoes, with the support device being connected to the climbing rails and thus supported on the climbing rails. The entire support structure consisting of climbing rails and support device can then be moved along the structure, preferably at least substantially in a horizontal direction.

As is known from the state of the art, either a crane is used to lift the support device or a lifting device, in particular a hydraulic device or an electric motor device. For example, such a device can be attached to the floor or the Climbing shoes on the one hand and the support device on the other hand in order to move the support device relative to the floor levels.

Then, in a second construction phase, a second building section with additional floors is built. During this second construction phase, the facade scaffolding, which is moved upwards using the climbing system, secures the other floors of the building. This process can be repeated as often as required.

The invention enables the open edges of floors of a building to be secured against danger to people by means of the facade scaffolding both at the beginning of the construction phase and at a later point in time during the construction phase, in particular during the entire construction phase. In addition, the facade scaffolding can serve as a work platform during the first construction phase and subsequent construction phases. Activities such as plastering and assembly work, for example on windows, etc., can be carried out from the facade scaffolding. Pure climbing protection shield systems, also called climbing protection walls, as they are known from the state of the art, can only be used from a certain height of the building. The disadvantage of this, however, is that the edge of the building has to be secured differently when the first floor(s) are erected. This is solved with the climbing systems and rail-guided climbing scaffolds according to the invention by allowing the vertical position of the facade scaffolding on the building to be changed using the climbing system.

Commercially available facade scaffolding is particularly flexible in terms of possible facade shapes of the building and the construction height. In addition, facade scaffolding is available from a variety of manufacturers and is particularly cost-effective compared to climbing scaffolding, which is provided solely for the purpose of climbing systems.

Compared to using a facade scaffold alone, a lot of scaffolding material can be saved. According to the invention, the facade scaffold only needs to be erected to a certain height, preferably around twelve meters. It can then be moved upwards using the climbing system to erect the rest of the structure. For conventional solutions, in which a facade scaffold several dozen meters high is erected, appropriate reinforcement and fastening would have to be provided. The invention combines the advantages of a facade scaffold with those of a climbing system. In particular, the adaptability of a facade scaffold to a building, particularly in terms of floor plan and height, can be transferred directly to the climbing system. In addition, the climbing system, in particular the climbing rails, the climbing shoes and, if necessary, drives, can only be used when it is really necessary, namely when the climbing scaffold has to be moved upwards. In addition, the facade scaffold can be set up independently of the climbing system and combined with different climbing systems.

Depending on the application scenario, the climbing system, especially its climbing shoes, can be mounted on a wall instead of on the floor. In addition, it can also be mounted on parapets and climb on them.

In an advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the support device is connected to the climbing rails in the area of one end of the climbing rail. This is preferably one of the two ends in the longitudinal direction of the climbing rails. The support device can also preferably be attached above the end of the climbing rail. This preferably forms an L-shaped structure of the support structure. The support device can thus be arranged or placed in the immediate vicinity of the ground or even on the ground.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the support device and the climbing rails in the support structure are aligned at least substantially perpendicular to one another. This advantageous embodiment is particularly advantageous if the facade of the building to be erected is to extend perpendicular to the ground.

At least substantially perpendicular in the sense of the invention means in a range between about 80° and about 100° or, in particular, about 90°.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the support structure can also have cross braces, which additionally connect a climbing rail and an area of the support device facing away from the climbing rail. The support structure can be additionally reinforced by the cross braces. In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the support device has climbing rail supports, in particular I-beams and/or double U-beams and/or hollow profile supports. The said supports are characterized by a high degree of rigidity with respect to bending and torsional loads.

In a further advantageous embodiment, the support device is a support grid. By forming a support grid that supports the facade scaffolding at those points where its load is transferred, in particular where the facade scaffolding stands, a particularly lightweight design of the support device can be achieved. The support grid therefore preferably forms a base for the facade scaffolding.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the supports of the support device are arranged on two levels. This makes it possible to create a particularly flexible and compact support device. In particular, the arrangement on two levels means that no welded joints of the supports of the support device are necessary. In particular, the supports do not have to be welded butt-to-butt.

In a further advantageous embodiment, supports in a first plane run at least substantially perpendicular to supports in a second plane. This also results in a particularly strong construction of the support device.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the supports of a first level are aligned in such a way that they can each be detachably connected to a climbing rail, with supports of the first level supporting supports of a second level, and with supports of the second level supporting the facade scaffolding. This allows loads to be supported from below.

In a further advantageous embodiment, the supports of the second level connect the supports of the first level to one another. This means that further connectors between the supports of the first level can be dispensed with.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the support device has at least one fastening element, in particular a fork head, which can be fastened to the support device, in particular supports of the second level, and is arranged is designed to receive at least one end of a vertical post of the facade scaffolding or to be received by the vertical post. By providing such a fastening element, the facade scaffolding can be arranged particularly securely on the support device.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the fastening element has a first rod with a first threaded section, in particular a base spindle, with a nut, in particular a spindle nut, sitting on the first threaded section, by means of which a support point for the vertical post can be changed. The rod can be used to support a vertical post of the facade scaffolding particularly securely. In addition, the position of the support point for the vertical posts can be changed by the spindle nut, in particular in the horizontal direction.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the fastening element further comprises a first support element, a second support element and a second rod with a second threaded portion, wherein the first rod and the second rod are fastened to the first support element, wherein the first rod extends on a first side of the first support element and the second rod extends on a second side of the first support element, which is opposite the first side, wherein the second support element has a hole in which the second rod can be received. By providing the support element with the second rod with a threaded portion, the fastening element can be fastened or clamped to the bore of a support. As a result, the fastening element can be stored on the support device in a captive manner.

In a further advantageous embodiment, the climbing system further comprises a coupling element which can be detachably attached to the climbing rails and has a coupling mechanism in order to be securely attached to the facade scaffolding, in particular at least one perforated disc, or at least one vertical post of the facade scaffolding. By providing the coupling element, the facade scaffolding can also be attached to the climbing rails. This enables additional securing of the facade scaffolding at a vertical distance from the support device. This is particularly advantageous for securing the climbing scaffolding against dynamic loads, such as wind loads. In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the coupling mechanism is a wedge head coupling for detachable fastening to the at least one perforated disc. This embodiment is particularly advantageous because commercially available modular scaffolds are provided with perforated discs that can be engaged by a wedge head coupling. This makes the system particularly universally applicable and coupling points provided for this purpose are already used.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the coupling element has a fastening plate with at least one hole, in particular at least one elongated hole, through which a fastening means, in particular a screw, can be guided for detachable fastening to the climbing rail. This allows the coupling element to be attached to a climbing rail in a particularly advantageous and detachable manner. If an elongated hole is used, the respective position of the coupling element on the vertical rail can still be finely adjusted. This increases the flexibility of the coupling elements. In particular, they can be used on different climbing rails with different hole patterns. This also makes it possible to compensate for any deviations in the distances between holes in the climbing rails.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the coupling element has brackets on which the coupling mechanisms are arranged, preferably essentially at an angle of 45° to a fastening plate. The brackets can be used to compensate for a gap between the location of the climbing rail and the cross braces and the vertical posts and/or perforated discs of a facade scaffold. The arrangement at an angle of 45° makes it particularly advantageous to overcome a gap between the climbing rail and the facade scaffold. In addition, this angle is adapted to the perforation of commercially available perforated discs.

At least substantially at an angle of 45° in the sense of the invention means in a range between about 30° and about 60° or, in particular, about 45°.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the arms extend from a fastening plate of the connecting element in two different, in particular opposite, directions in such a way that the coupling elements extend both in a direction parallel to the fastening plate and in a direction perpendicular to the mounting plate. This makes it particularly easy to overcome gaps between the climbing rails and the facade scaffolding.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the climbing system, the booms are reinforced by a vertically aligned first web and/or the fastening plate is reinforced by a vertically aligned second web, wherein the first web and the second web are preferably aligned perpendicular to one another. By providing the webs on the coupling element, it can be designed for significantly higher longitudinal and transverse loads as well as torsional loads.

In a further advantageous embodiment, the climbing system further comprises an electric or hydraulic drive, which can preferably be detachably attached to the support structure on the one hand and to the climbing shoe and/or the building, by means of which the support structure can be displaced in a self-climbing manner relative to the climbing shoe. This allows the climbing system to be raised or lowered in relation to the building without the use of cranes or external lifting devices.

The features and advantages described above with respect to the first aspect of the invention also apply accordingly to the further aspects of the invention and vice versa.

In an advantageous embodiment of the climbing frame, the facade frame has balconies that enclose the climbing rails so that a gap between the building and the climbing frame can be reduced, in particular minimized. This further reduces the dangers to people from the open edges of the floors.

In an advantageous embodiment, the method further comprises the following work step:

• Attaching a cross brace between a climbing rail and a support device of the supporting structure.

In a further advantageous embodiment, the method further comprises the following work step: Attaching an enclosure to one side of the facade scaffolding, in particular which faces the climbing rails.

In a further advantageous embodiment, the method further comprises the following work steps:

• further lifting of the climbing frame; and

• Construction of another part of the structure.

This allows the structure to be secured up to the last floor using the climbing frame according to the invention.

In an advantageous embodiment of the coupling element, the coupling mechanism is a wedge head coupling for releasable fastening to the at least one perforated disc.

In a further advantageous embodiment, the coupling element has arms on which the coupling mechanisms are arranged, preferably at least substantially at an angle of 45° to a fastening plate.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the coupling element, the arms extend from the fastening plate in two different, in particular opposite, directions in such a way that the coupling elements are spaced apart from the fastening plate both in a direction parallel to the fastening plates and in a direction perpendicular to the fastening plate.

In a further advantageous embodiment of the coupling element, the arms are reinforced by a vertically aligned first web and/or the fastening plate is reinforced by a vertically aligned second web, wherein preferably only the first and the second web are aligned perpendicular to each other.

Further advantages and features will become apparent from the following description with reference to figures.

Figure 1 shows a perspective view of a climbing frame 1 which is installed on the floors 8 of a building to be constructed. The climbing frame 1 has a support grid 2 on which a facade scaffold 9 is arranged. The support grid supports the climbing frame 1 and thus serves as a base for the climbing frame 1. The support grid 2 is supported by the floor 36 and is attached to climbing rails 5. In order to be supported on the floor 36, the support grid 2 preferably has height-adjustable feet (not shown) and/or is placed on wooden beams on the floor 36.

The climbing rails 5 are in turn guided through the climbing shoes 7, with one climbing shoe 7 per climbing rail 5 being attached to the floor 8 of the first floor, the floor 8 of the second floor and the floor 8 of the third floor. The facade scaffolding 9 can be moved upwards on the building in a vertical direction together with a supporting structure, which is formed from the support grid 2 and the climbing rails 5, with the climbing rails 5 being guided on the building by the climbing shoes 7 during the movement.

This can be done in a manner known per se using electrical or hydraulic lifting devices (not shown). Alternatively, the entirety of the supporting structure and facade scaffolding 9 can be lifted in a manner known per se using a crane (not shown).

Figure 2 shows the climbing frame 1 from Figure 1 in a perspective view from the structure side, whereby the structure is not shown.

Figure 3 shows a perspective view of a first embodiment of a climbing system 2 for a rail-guided climbing frame 1 of Figures 1 and 2.

The climbing system 2 comprises the support grid 6 as well as the climbing rails 5 and the extension 38 of the climbing rails, which together form a supporting structure 4 for a facade scaffolding 9. Furthermore, the climbing system 2 has the fork heads 11 and coupling elements 24 (not shown), to which a facade scaffold 9 (not shown) can be attached to the support structure 4. The climbing rails 5 are guided on a structure to be erected in a known manner by means of climbing shoes 7, as described above with reference to Figures 1 and 2. The climbing rails 5 can be inserted into guides of the climbing shoes 7 both from the side and from above.

Figure 4 shows a side cross-sectional view of the climbing frame 1 from Figures 1 and 2 in a plane which cuts the climbing shoes 7 in the middle.

As already described in relation to the climbing system 2 according to Figure 3, the support structure 4, which supports the facade scaffolding 9, has the support grid 6, a climbing rail 5 and a rail extension 38. The facade scaffolding 9 has vertical posts 12 and horizontal posts 35. The vertical posts 12 are modular and plugged together. The facade scaffolding 9 is attached to the support structure 4 by means of fork heads 11 and coupling elements 24. The support structure 4 is mounted via the climbing rails 5 on the climbing shoes 7, which in turn are attached to the floors 8 of a building by means of anchors 37. Alternatively or additionally, vertical posts 12 with horizontal posts 35 form vertical frames, which can preferably also be plugged together in a modular manner. Alternatively or additionally, horizontal posts 35 arranged at least substantially perpendicular to one another form horizontal frames. These can preferably be attached to the vertical frames.

Figure 5 shows an enlargement of section A of Figure 4.

In the area of the floors 8, platforms 33 are preferably arranged in the facade scaffolding in order to provide a working platform here. Activities on the outside of the building, such as plastering work and assembly work, for example on the windows, etc., can be carried out from these working platforms.

The support structure 4 further preferably has a cross bracing 10 in order to reduce leverage forces at the fastening point between the climbing rail 5 and the support grid 6. In the area of the platforms 33, the climbing scaffold 9 preferably also has balconies 15 which enclose the climbing rails 5 in order to close gaps between the floors 8 of the building and the platforms 33 and thus provide better fall protection. Balconies 15 are preferably supported by further cross braces (no reference symbol) in relation to the vertical posts 12 of the climbing scaffold 9. Furthermore, the facade scaffold 9 preferably also has vertical posts 35 for reinforcement.

The climbing rails 5 have locking elements (no reference number) in a manner known per se in order to be locked into corresponding counterparts on the climbing shoes 7 against the force of gravity.

Figure 6 shows an enlarged view of a climbing frame 1 according to Figure 2 in a perspective view in the area of the support grid 6.

As can be seen from Figure 6, the support grid 6 has two levels of supports 6a, 6b. The first supports 6a of the lower level are arranged perpendicular to the second supports 6b of the second level and a first support 6a is connected to a climbing rail 5. The cross brace 10 is also preferably arranged between the climbing rail 5 and the respective first supports 6a. The two supports 6b rest on the first supports 6a and connect the first supports 6a to one another.

The first supports 6a and the second supports 6b are preferably connected by means of connectors 39. These connectors preferably have support elements which can be connected by means of a threaded rod and nuts, wherein the threaded rod is inserted through holes in a first support 6a and a second support 6b.

The fork head 11 is explained in detail below with reference to Figures 7, 8 and 9:

Figure 7 shows an enlargement of section B from Figure 6 in the area of the fork head 11. Figure 8 shows an enlargement of Figure 5 in the area of the fork head 11. Figure 9 shows an enlargement of section C in Figure 3.

In a similar manner to the connectors 39, the fork heads 11 have a first support element 17 and a second support element 18, which are connected by means of a second Rod 19 can be connected to a second threaded portion (not shown) by inserting the second rod 19 through a hole of a second support 6b and fastening the second support element 18 to the second threaded portion by means of a nut.

Preferably, the second rod 19 is designed merely as a screw which is guided through a hole in the fork head 11, in particular through the first support element 17 of the fork head and through a corresponding hole in the second support element 18, as shown in the figures.

In addition to the support elements 17, 18, the fork head has a first rod 13 with a threaded section 20 on which a spindle nut 14 is rotatably arranged. The first rod 13 is preferably designed as an extension of the second rod 19. The carrier 6b of the support device is designed as a double I-beam in the figures. The first rod 13 can be guided through the gap in the carrier so that the first section element 13 and the second section element 19 can be clamped against each other by means of a nut (not shown).

Vertical posts 12 of the facade scaffolding 9 are preferably placed on the first rods 13 of the fork head 11. These enclose the first rods 13 until they hit the spindle nuts 14, which form a stop 16 for the vertical posts 12. The relative position of the stops 16 with respect to the stops 17 can be changed by turning the spindle nut 14.

As can also be seen from the figures, the facade scaffolding 9 has a perforated disk 27 in the area of the end pieces of each vertical post module. In this perforated disk, wedge head couplings can be locked to perforated disks using wedge heads. Furthermore, individual elements of the vertical posts 12 and the horizontal posts 35 are preferably attached to the perforated disks 27.

Figure 10 shows a perspective view of the climbing frame 1 in the area of the climbing rails 5, which are guided by the climbing shoes 7 on the structure.

In order to secure the facade scaffolding 9 to the climbing rails 5, coupling elements 24 are preferably provided. These coupling elements 24 preferably have Elongated holes 29a, 29b, by means of which they can be attached to holes in the climbing rail 5 using screws 30. These holes are preferably made in a fastening plate 28 of the coupling element 24. From the fastening plate 28, preferably at an angle of 45° to the fastening plate 28, arms 31a, 31b extend obliquely outwards, to which coupling mechanisms, in the case shown wedge head couplings, are attached, which are designed to be attached to perforated disks 27 by means of wedge heads 25a, 25b.

In order to be able to climb on the climbing frame 1, the facade frame 9 preferably has platforms which are attached between vertical posts 12 of the facade frame, in particular on the perforated discs 27. In order to secure a gap between a building and the platforms 33, the balconies 15 already described above are also provided.

Figure 10 also shows a possible coupling mechanism between guide rail 5 and climbing shoe 7.

Figure 11 shows a detailed view of an embodiment of a coupling element 24 according to Figure 10.

As already explained above, the coupling element 24 has a fastening plate 28 in which elongated holes 29a, 29b are formed. Extensions 31a, 31b extend away from the fastening plate 28, preferably at an angle of approximately 45°. At their ends, these extensions 31a, 31b, as shown, preferably have an angle, with a plane formed by this angle preferably being aligned at least substantially perpendicular to the actual extension 31a, 31b. A wedge head coupling is preferably arranged on the plane as a coupling mechanism 25a. This can be fastened to an opening, in particular openings of a perforated disk (not shown), using wedge heads 41a, 41b.

The fastening plate 28 and the brackets 31a, 31b are preferably reinforced by means of a first web 32a and a second web 32b. Preferably, the two webs 32a, 32b are at a right angle to each other and are further preferably connected to the Fastening plate 28 and the arms 31a, 31b are welded. Preferably, the first strut 32a also extends in the area of the angle of the arms 31a, 31b.

Figure 12 shows a second embodiment of a climbing frame 1, wherein a perspective view in the region of the lower end of the climbing rails 5 is shown.

In contrast to the first embodiment of the climbing frame 1, the climbing system 2 in the second embodiment is made up of several parts. The climbing system 2 has two support devices 6. In this embodiment too, the support devices 6 preferably have a first support 6a, which can be connected to the climbing rail 5 and is connected in Figure 12, and a second support 6b, which is carried vertically by the first support 6a and supports vertical posts 12 of the climbing frame 9. In this embodiment too, the support device 6 together with the climbing rail 5 forms a support structure 4 in the connected state.

In contrast to the first embodiment, however, not all vertical posts 12 are supported on the second supports 6b. In the area between the individual support devices 6, the facade scaffolding 9 is rather self-supporting.

Compared to the first embodiment of the climbing frame 1, the second embodiment can manage with significantly fewer supports 6a, 6b. This reduces in particular the weight load from the support device 6 and/or the support structure 4.

Figure 13 shows an embodiment of a rail-guided climbing protection shield 3.

The climbing protection shield 3 has a climbing frame 1 according to the first embodiment according to Figure 1 and an enclosure 34 which closes the facade frame 9 on the side facing away from the building 8. This makes it possible to achieve a temporary building shell for the building 8, which can also be moved in relation to the building 8.

In the same way, a climbing frame 1 of the second embodiment according to Figure 12 can be used. Figure 14 shows a perspective detailed view of the rail-guided climbing protection shield according to Figure 13 in the area of the support device 6.

The open areas of the facade scaffolding 9 are closed by the enclosure 34, which is formed in one piece or as individual elements, each of which closes an opening formed by the vertical posts 12 and horizontal posts 35. The enclosure 34 is preferably designed as a grid, plate, net or film.

In the area of the climbing frame 9 which is directly adjacent to the support device 6, there are preferably no elements for the enclosure 34.

Figure 15 shows an embodiment of a method 100 for erecting a structure 8 by means of a rail-guided climbing frame 1 according to one of the embodiments described above.

In a first work step 101, the support grid 6 is provided at a location where a structure 8 is to be erected.

In a second work step 102, a first section of the structure 8 is erected. These are preferably the first two floors in a structure 8 with open edges on the floors. This may differ for other structures. In any case, the structure 8 must be high enough that two climbing shoes 7 can be attached to the structure 8 at a sufficient distance for the climbing rail 5. The facade scaffolding 9 is preferably used when erecting this first section and already serves as a working platform or to secure the people working on the construction site and the area around the structure to be erected.

In a third work step 103, the climbing shoes 7 are mounted on the first part of the structure 8. In the embodiment shown, the climbing shoes 7 are anchored on the floors 8 of the floors already constructed.

The climbing rails 5 are preferably inserted into the climbing shoes 7 in a fourth step 104. In a fifth work step 105, the climbing rails 5 are connected to the support grid 6 to form the support structure 4. In particular, first supports 6a are connected to the climbing rails 5.

Furthermore, preferably in a sixth work step 106, a cross brace 10 is attached between the climbing rail 5 and the support grid 6, in particular a first support 6a of the support grid.

In an alternative embodiment, the fifth work step 105 and/or the sixth work step 106 can also take place before the fourth work step 104. In this case, the support structure 4 is created first and only then is the climbing rail 5 inserted into the climbing shoe 7.

If it is not just a climbing scaffold 1 but also a climbing protection shield 3, then in a seventh work step 107 an enclosure 34 is attached to one side of the facade scaffold 9 which faces away from the climbing rails. This work step can be carried out at any time after the facade scaffold 9 has been mounted on the support grid 6. This preferably takes place as soon as the climbing rail 5 is connected to the support grid 6 to form the support structure 4.

In an eighth work step 108, the climbing frame 1 is lifted for the first time. The climbing frame 1 is then preferably locked in this position on the climbing shoes 7.

Preferably, as already described above, the lifting is carried out in a known manner by means of an electric or hydraulic lifting device (not shown) which is installed between the support structure 4 and the climbing shoes 7 or the structure 8. Otherwise, the lifting can also be carried out by means of a crane.

In a ninth work step 109, a second section of the building 8, in particular a third floor 8, is constructed.

In a tenth work step 110, further climbing shoes 7 are mounted on this second section of the structure 8, in particular on the third floor 8. In an eleventh work step 111, the climbing frame 1 is raised so that the climbing rails 5 are threaded into the further climbing shoes 7 on the second section of the structure 8. Here, too, the climbing rails 5 are again locked to the climbing shoes 7. Subsequently, further parts of the structure 8 can be erected, with further floors 8 being erected in particular in a twelfth work step 112.

The tenth work step 110 to the twelfth work step 112 are preferably repeated until the last floor of the building 8 is constructed.

It should be noted that the embodiments are merely examples that are not intended to limit the scope of protection, application and structure in any way. Rather, the preceding description provides the person skilled in the art with a guide for implementing at least one embodiment, whereby various changes, in particular with regard to the function and arrangement of the components described, can be made without departing from the scope of protection as it results from the claims and combinations of features equivalent to these.
