A scaffold includes a U-profile beam having an outwardly-open U-profile in which a scaffold platform is releasably hooked by mounting hooks. The U-profile beam has a perpendicular wall delimiting the U-profile and a guiding and fastening groove delimited by inwardly-extending groove reach-behind protrusions delimiting a locking space for releasably locking a locking element reaching behind the protrusions. An anti-lift-out and support element has an anti-lift-out element extending over the hooks to prevent lifting out. A support element fixed to the anti-lift-out element extends perpendicularly from the anti-lift-out element to a support element end for supporting the support element on the wall. The anti-lift-out element has a through-opening designed so that the fastening element moves the locking element toward the fastening element longitudinal axis and perpendicularly to the groove through the through-opening. A method secures scaffold platform mounting hooks against lifting out from a U-profile beam using an anti-lift-out device.

Abstract

The invention concerns a metal scaffold bar (20.1) with a steel beam profile (21.1) comprising two beam profile ends (32.1, 32.2) that extend away from one another and to which a metal fastening means (33.1) is welded for detachably fastening the scaffold bar (20.1) to other scaffold parts (41). A U-shaped reinforcement profile (22.1) made of sheet steel is welded to the beam profile (21.1) using the fastening ends of the side branches of the U-shaped profile. The height of the U-shaped reinforcement profile is greater than the height of the beam profile and the width of the U-shaped reinforcement profile is smaller than the width of the beam profile by more than double the thickness of the beam profile (21.1).

Abstract

The invention relates to a scaffolding post (25) made of metal, including a tube (26) and a tubular tube connector (27) integrally molded therewith. In a transition region between the tube connector (27) and the tube (26) a stop (46) is formed, the stop being in the form of an annular post-supporting end face (50) running perpendicularly to the longitudinal axis of the scaffolding post (25) and circumferentially around the longitudinal axis. The slide-on area (37) of the tube (26) has a plurality of indentations (86), each extending in the direction of the longitudinal axis of the scaffolding post (25) and each being designed with a tube inner cross-section reduction. The indentations are arranged distributed in the circumferential direction around the longitudinal axis of the scaffolding post (25) at regular intervals or equidistant and each extends continuously for a length in the tube slide-on region (37), starting directly from a tube-supporting end face in the direction of the tube connector (27). The indentations (86) are each configured in an L-shape or T-shape with a longitudinal supporting indentation (90) and a transverse centering indentation (91). In the region of the post-supporting end face (50) the tube connector (27) includes a centering region (65) spanning a first tube connector outside diameter and further includes a supporting region (73) spanning a second tube connector outside diameter, wherein the first tube connector outside diameter is slightly larger than the second tube connector outside diameter. The tube (26) includes a substantially circular cylindrical tube portion (55), which merges in the direction of the free tube connector end directly, substantially sharp-edged via an annular edge or with a slight transitional radius, into the post-supporting surface (50).

Abstract

A scaffolding (20) comprises vertical frame elements (22), crossbeams that extend therebetween, flooring units (27) which have mounting aids (28) to be mounted on the crossbeam (21), and at least one anti-release device (40) for securing the flooring units (27) against being released. The anti-release device (40) can be removably connected to the crossbeam (21) and has a securing member (41) which corresponds to the length of the crossbeam, is to be placed on the mounting aid (28), and is fitted with at least one hook-shaped fastening element (42) that penetrates a hole (33) located in the crossbeam and partially embraces the crossbeam (21) in the anti-release state. One end of the securing member (41) is provided with a pivotable plate which is fastened by means of a hinge and is pivoted from the open position into the locking position and retained by means of a spring mechanism (60). Alternatively or additionally, the hook-shaped fastening element (42) can be made of flat steel, and the parallel lateral surfaces are placed at an adequate distance from the mounting aids (28) in the anti-release state in order to prevent a collision.
