Description

The utility model relates to the field of satisfying a person’s vital needs and can be used to equip buildings and structures requiring temporary accommodation of the public during mass entertainment, sports, cultural, political and similar events. The utility model relates to the field of construction, in particular to spatial transformable structures that can be used as walls or floors or ceilings in rooms undergoing internal reconstruction, as well as in open areas.

Currently, for spatial transformation of the internal layout in rooms undergoing internal restructuring in connection with a change in the application of this room, old solutions are used, consisting in the demolition or dismantling of partitions and their rearrangement in accordance with the new planning plan. Other equipment that accompanies the layout (tables, chairs, etc.) and is necessary for the life of the users of the room, as a rule, is simply transferred to the warehouse, and then placed in zones in accordance with the plan for each section in the room. The same applies to the creation of platforms, podiums, scenes that are used for this event, but will subsequently be dismantled. All this requires a lot of time and sometimes dismantled equipment often does not fit into the new layout. In addition, the installed installations in the layout are stationary in nature and cannot be changed during the event. For example, to demonstrate fashionable clothes, a podium is built in the room, which is a platform above the floor. After the installation of such a site, it cannot be changed in a stationary state.

An example of a possible transformation of platforms for spectators is a telescopic tribune, consisting of a multi-section metal frame, operating on the principle of telescopic rails that extend from each other when placed in a working position and slide into each other when stored, moving each section along the floor with the help of wheels built into the sole of the carcass, mounted on the fiberglass monolith carcass, which includes a staircase with steps between the rows, formed in a monolith, a baffle for legs and seats, and side and rear guard grids fixed to the frame (RU 56438, ЕНН 3/12, published on 09/10/2006).

Using the telescopic platform as a transformable platform allows you to get two installation options: the auditorium, when the seats extend along the guides from the niches, and free platforms that can be used for other purposes, since the seats that were previously located on these platforms are tucked away into niches (Tribunes Congress sliding series (telescopic), Internet address: http://www.rasport.ru/tribune.html; Telescopic sliding stands for spectators, Internet address: http://www.sportcomplect.ru/catologue/tribune/telescopic_tribunes )

Such a constructive approach has strong limitations and does not allow to expand possible variations of installations.

These examples are given for lighting the prior art and are not prototypes for the claimed object. The prototype for the declared object was not found.

This utility model is aimed at achieving a technical result consisting in the creation of a transformable platform to ensure the possibility of reducing the time for creating a volumetric installation in structures intended for frequent changes in the internal layout.

The indicated technical result is achieved by the fact that the transformable platform for the formation of installations is unidirectionally oriented rod-shaped elements of various sections (square, circle, triangle, prism, etc.) with end surfaces located next to each other according to the type of cells with the formation of the initial position of the flat platform by placing the end surfaces at the same level. Moreover, each element is made with a separate drive for its movement in height, for raising the end surface above the level of a flat platform or lowering below this level. In the initial position, if necessary, the platform can form not only a plane, but also a volumetric composition.

These features are significant and are interconnected with the formation of a stable set of essential features sufficient to obtain the desired technical result.

The present utility model is illustrated by a specific example of execution, which, however, is not the only possible one, but clearly demonstrates the possibility of achieving the required technical result.

According to this utility model, the construction of a transformable site is considered, mainly for the formation of planar and volumetric installations in horizontal or vertical or inclined position, depending on the assigned application.

The transformable platform (Fig. 1) is a unidirectionally oriented rod-shaped elements 1 with an end surface 2 each, located next to each other by type of honeycomb with the formation of a flat horizontal or vertically located platform 3 in the initial position by placing the end surfaces 2 at the same level . In the following, the description will be given with reference to the horizontal platform 3, but it is also true for the case when the platform is located vertically or obliquely, forming a floor, ceiling and walls, thereby forming transformable rooms. Elements 1 are essentially telescopic rods. The rods can be adjacent to each other with a minimum clearance sufficient to ensure free (unhindered) movement of one rod in the vertical direction relative to adjacent rods, but can also be at some distance from each other. The position of the end surfaces of the rods determines the construction of a horizontally located surface 3 in part of its continuity. If the pad of Fig. 1 in the initial position of the rods is used as a podium or stage, then, of course, the gaps between adjacent rods should be minimized. In fact, such a platform on the texture of a horizontally located surface 3 will repeat the paved road.

Vertically oriented elements (rods or posts) are mounted in a frame 4, which is a support for the posts and forms guides for moving the posts in the vertical direction. The design of such a frame or power frame is not disclosed in detail, since it is a unit of conventional construction. Some examples are shown in figure 2, 3. The frame can be individual for each rod, or combine on the basis of the cartridge group of rods. The rod may have either one extension level or several (example - Fig.6). The cross section of telescopic rods can be various: square, rectangular, triangular polygonal, round, oval, in the form of honeycombs, puzzles, etc. (some examples are FIGS. 4, 5).

The transformed platform can be located directly on any supporting base (surface), can be deepened to the level of the frame 4 at the same level with the supporting surface 5, as shown in figure 1.

The end surfaces of unidirectionally oriented elements can be made flat. The upper part of the elements 1 can have not only a flat shape, but also a little rounded, or with a small relief, or slightly convex, or concave, or any other surface shape. In one platform, rods of various sections and sizes can be used. It is possible to use the side walls of the rods 1 and the end surfaces 2, at least at part of their height, as decoration or lighting elements due to the placement of LED screens.

The rods in the extendable part may have hinge elements that will allow them to deviate from the vertical position (Fig. 11) and, for example, to form a tilt of the back of the chairs or inclined walls. An automatic cleaning system (washing) must be provided at the site to clean the surfaces of the rods when they are extended and recessed. In a specific case, a system is applied that is reminiscent of a crane-beam moving along guides laid along the edge of the platform. In the inactive state, the washing beam 11 (Fig. 10) is located at the end of the platform under the hatch 9. After activating the system, the hatch opens, the washing beam leaves it and begins to move along the guides along the platform. Holes are provided in the beam, repeating the shape of the rod. At the moment when the hole is located exactly above the rod, the beam stops, and the rod begins to extend and pass through the holes in the washing beam, in which the rod is cleaned of contaminants. After full extension, the rod moves in the opposite direction and returns to its original position, after which the beam moves one step, and the cycle repeats.

In the transformable area, each element 1 is made with a separate drive 6 for its movement in height relative to the level of a flat horizontally located surface: below or above the level of the initial position of all the rods (figure 1). The optimal position is the rods in the lower extreme position: this is the initial position (in which all the end surfaces 2 are aligned in a common horizontal surface 3), in this position all the rods are supported on the frame, and the load is removed from the drive. When the drive is turned on, the rod moves upward in the vertical direction, the actuator 6 ensures that the rod is held in this extended position. Structurally, the rod can be made telescopic, in the form of a screw-nut pair, with a support, that is, it consists of two parts: 7 and 1, one of which 7 is the supporting part, and the second 1 has the ability to move along the first. However, it is possible to design actuators that enable the rods not only to rise above the initial position, but also to fall below it. In this case, the drive or a separate locking mechanism for each rod should provide locking or fixing of this rod not only in its original position, but also in positions below or above the level of the horizontally located surface 3. The drive of each vertically oriented element can be made hydraulic, pneumatic, mechanical, electromechanical or any other possible type of drive. This example shows one of the possible drive options; in practice, other types of assembly layouts can be used, depending on the goals and load. A feature of such drives is that they are used separately for each element 1 and each such drive is made with its remote control system from a computerized drive control means, in which drive control algorithms are programmed for centralized movement of vertically oriented elements in height during the formation of volumetric installations. In addition, a computerized drive control tool must be implemented with a feedback system with sensors coordinating the position of the columns.

The considered multifunctional transformable multi-purpose platform is a matrix (cell type) set of vertically oriented rods or elements made in the form of elongated bodies that have the ability to adjust their position in height. In the initial position, the end parts of all the rods are located in a common horizontal plane and form a flat surface (Fig.7). When a control signal or operating pressure is applied, the columns begin to rise above the general horizontal plane or fall and form the elements of the subject structure - walls, partitions, rises, platforms, etc. (Fig. 8). In such a platform, using a special control algorithm, it is possible to build any three-dimensional structure. Lined structures can have a stationary character or be mobile, that is, change their shape during a certain process, due to applied necessity or the purpose of a structure built on the site. Also on the telescopic rods can be installed various structural elements, trusses, coatings and various lighting frames 10, moreover, for their installation there is no need for a lifting mechanism, since they are fixed to the rods in a state when the platform is in its original position. These elements can be stored under the hatch 9, and move around the site - along the guides along which the washing beam moves. The external contour of the site can be not only rectangular, but also of any arbitrary shape. The rods may be arranged orderly or randomly.

This utility model is industrially applicable and can be manufactured using widely used engineering and electronics technologies and modern tools and materials. The utility model allows the stationary multifunctional platform to be transformed in a short time into the structure of a given layout, which reduces the installation time for structures oriented to exhibitions, demonstrations, including fashion, conferences, etc.
