Definitions

• the invention relates to a drainage channel or the like surface drainage device.
• drainage channels which comprise a body which can be built into the floor, that is to say a gutter body or a gully with side walls and a floor, a cover which can be moved over being mounted on the upper edges of the side walls.
• Such drainage channels serve to drain surface water on roads and in squares in order to increase traffic safety.
• the invention is based on the object, a drainage channel of the type mentioned in such a way further that a further increase in traffic safety is ensured.
• a drainage channel or similar surface drainage device comprising a body which can be installed in the floor and having side walls and a bottom and a cover which can be mounted on upper edges of the side walls, in that luminaire body holding devices and / or power supply devices and / or cable holding devices for Strom ⁇ supplies in or on the body and / or the cover for operating Beleuch ⁇ ment bodies are provided.
• An essential point of the invention is thus that the security increase serving function of the drainage is paired with an increase in security by an additional optical function.
• an illuminable or illuminating tende drainage channel a very visible especially at night mark for marginal areas drivable areas, parking areas or separations between areas for traffic and pedestrian areas.
• the lighting bodies can be used to illuminate and illuminate objects, which in turn considerably increases traffic safety. The accompanying decorative effect should not go unmentioned.
• Another advantage of the drainage channel according to the invention is that without additional effort lighting is also possible at those points where drainage is provided. Conversely, of course, drainage can easily be provided there where only lighting was planned.
• the lighting bodies can, if one tolerates certain losses of light, be covered below a conventional cover, e.g. a rust of steel (sheet) or cast iron be attached.
• the cover is at least partially made of glass or the like of transparent or opaque material. On the one hand, the luminous power is thereby increased, on the other hand an interesting designer effect results.
• the lighting fixture preferably includes a cover for sealing the fixtures in a watertight manner, so that incoming (draining) surface water can not develop any deleterious effects.
• the lighting fixtures preferably comprise low-voltage lamps, LEDs or similar lighting means which can be operated at safe voltage voltages. This results in reduced requirements for the protection classes of the entire lighting operation. tung.
• the lighting fixture fixtures also simultaneously include the power supply devices and / or cable fixtures for supplying power to the lighting fixtures. It thus hereby formed compact units, which are easy to install and interchangeable.
• the lighting fixture holding devices and / or the power supply devices and / or the cable holding devices can be laid by means of separate support body inside the gutters and thus kept safe. In a further preferred embodiment of the invention, however, it is intended to partially cast this into the (gutter) body or to mold it into it. As a result, a simple installation of the lighting devices is made possible with little effort.
• frames are usually mounted on the upper edges. These may, according to another embodiment of the invention, form at least part of the current-carrying devices.
• the covers it is possible to form the covers so that they form at least a part of the power supply device.
• connecting devices are then provided in order to electrically connect frames and / or covers of adjacent channel sections to one another, so that continuous power lines are formed.
• FIG. 1 is a plan view of a channel with cover according to a first preferred embodiment of the invention
• FIG. 3 is a plan view of a cover grate of another embodiment of the invention.
• FIGS. 4a and 4b are views along line IV-IV from FIG. 3 concerning two alternative embodiments
• FIG. 5 shows a section along the line VV of Fig. 3
• 6 is a plan view of another embodiment of the invention similar to that of FIG. 3, FIG.
• FIG. 8 shows a plan view of a cover grid according to a further embodiment of the invention.
• FIG. 10 is a view along the line X-X of Fig. 8,
• FIG. 11 is a plan view of another embodiment of the invention, FIG.
• FIG. 13 shows a section along the line XIII-XIII from FIG. 11, FIG.
• FIG. 14 is a plan view of another embodiment of the invention.
• FIG. 15 shows a section along the line XV-XV from FIG. 14.
• the drainage channel comprises a (gutter) body 10 whose side edges 11 and 12 are connected by a bottom 13. On upper edges 14, 15, frames 16, 17 are provided for holding a cover 20.
• transverse straps 51 are attached at regular intervals, which on the one hand form fixtures 30 for lighting fixtures and, on the other hand, cable retainers 50 for power supply cables.
• the lighting fixtures 31 sit in housing bodies 33 and are covered by glass plates 32, so that the lighting bodies 31 are hermetically sealed.
• the power supply devices comprise bus cables 41, which are pulled through a longer channel strand along. Of these bus cables 41 branches connecting cable 42 to the individual lighting fixtures 31.
• the lighting fixtures 31 are mounted in the housing bodies 33 such that only one connecting cable 42 is necessary for each channel section (in the usual standard lengths).
• the glass plates 32 are drawn flat to pass the light.
• Vor ⁇ preferably, however, roof-shaped covers are used here so that recorded by surface water dirt does not remain on them.
• FIGS. 3, 4a and 5 differs from that according to FIG. 1 in that the cover 20 has a central recess 21 in which the glass plate 32 is flush with the surface of the cover 20 together with the Housing body 33 is mounted.
• the bus cables 41 for the power supply of the lighting devices of a subsequent channel can either be provided on the housing bodies 33 (see FIG. 4 a) or can be guided through corresponding recesses in front sides of the cover 20.
• FIGS. 6 and 7 differs from the embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 to 5 in that the power supply devices 40 are provided as busbars 41, which are cast in the side wall 12 of the body 10 are.
• the connecting cables 42 to the busbar NEN 41 serve from the trough inside her into corresponding threaded holes in the busbars 41 used contact screws.
• FIGS. 8-10 differs from the previously shown embodiments in that the glass plate 32 is subdivided into several sections, with the housing bodies 33 corresponding to these smaller sections. In particular, if one has an increased signal effect, e.g. By changing colors, this embodiment is particularly well suited.
• the power supply device 40 is over
• Cable holding devices 50 attached to the cover 20 This ensures that the cover 20 can be removed with all necessary for lighting facilities from the gutter body. A special design of the channel body is therefore not necessary, so that already laid in the ground gutters can be converted into "lighting gutters".
• FIGS. 11-13 differs from that according to FIGS. 6 and 7 in that one of the bus bars 41 is replaced by the frame 16.
• two adjacent channels are electrically conductively connected to one another via a connection 43.
• a similar connection is also made between the busbars 41 of adjacent gutters.
• the covers 20 are also suitable for forming power supply devices.
• the entire tread surface of the cover 20 practically consists of a glass plate 32, which is held in a frame 22.
• the frame 22 has edge-side inlet openings 23 for water, so that "slot grooves" are formed on both side edges of the drainage channel.
