Definitions
- the present invention relates to manufacturing processes for steel wire mesh canvases, more specifically to those manufacturing processes for single wire steel wire mesh canvases, with machines adapted for manufacturing mesh canvases of this type. . Likewise, the present invention also relates to the possible field of application of steel wire mesh canvases obtained from the claimed manufacturing process or with the machine.
- a steel wire mesh canvas consists of a metallic framework obtained by braiding or weaving steel wires, of which there are different typologies that differ from each other generally by their different geometric configurations, by their manufacturing procedure, by the size of the internal crosslinking, by the use of different diameters and resistance of the wires or by the use of different types of corrosion protection among others.
- steel wire mesh canvases constitute a widely used element in a large number of applications, with a history of different types of steel wire mesh canvases used primarily in enclosures and industrial uses being known, in these cases, No structural function.
- the structural function will be understood as the mechanical behavior of steel wire mesh canvases when, subject to external actions or forces, a flat tension state of the canvas or a plurality of canvases is derived of meshes when these are connected to each other.
- the flat tensional state of the element the tensional physical state that is produced in it by the efforts generated and that are contained in the plane of the mesh canvas that are caused by external actions or forces, which can be applied both in the directions contained within the plane that forms the canvas of meshes, as in the direction perpendicular to it or a combination of both.
- Characteristic is the behavior, both of the mesh of meshes and of the mesh canvases connected to each other, according to which, before external actions, mainly in the direction perpendicular to the plane that contains it, tensile stresses are generated inside in the directions contained in the plane of the same, where the main direction is identified as the longitudinal direction where the resistance is greater and the secondary direction as the transverse direction where the resistance is equal to or less than the main one, being able to assimilate its behavior from the physical point of view and mechanical like that of a structural membrane.
- the structural function of a membrane is characterized by the fact that the element must have a tensile strength such that it can withstand the external actions to which it will be subjected under a controlled stress-strain behavior, which implies that the levels of deformation must be low for high effort levels caused by external actions or forces.
- the structural membranes have a two-dimensional character, which means that two dimensions predominate over the third, which is negligible.
- the type of wire is limited to the use of ductile steel, which has the quality of being easily folded, which makes it suitable according to the method of manufacturing by commented fabric, which causes a plastic deformation on the wire by repeated torsion without recovering its original form once the manufacturing action that conforms it ends.
- the tensile strength of the wire used to allow this type of manufacturing generally reaches 550MPa with wire diameters generally less than or equal to 3.0mm.
- This type of mesh canvas is characterized by its flat or two-dimensional character, given the type of fabric and fabric manufacturing procedure which would make it preliminary for use as a structural membrane. However, due to external actions, it has a very high deformation, so its use as a structural membrane is not suitable.
- simple twist meshes are also common and known within the different steel wire mesh canvases.
- the manufacturing process also uses technology of a traditional nature and widely known as in triple or double twist mesh canvases.
- a folding or bending of the steel wire is carried out which allows the formation of individual wire turns, which are placed transversely to the manufacturing progress of the mesh of meshes, are interwoven with each other two by two to generate meshes and these are intertwined obtaining the final configuration of a canvas of steel wire meshes.
- the manufacturing process begins with the formation of the individual turns from the steel wire, obtained by bending the wire along a tool that rotates with a spiral groove and that pulls the wire to form the spiral, which is characterized by an angle of advance, a height, a length of passage and an interior light of the spiral that is achieved by the configuration of the manufacturing tool.
- the variation of these parameters allows obtaining different geometric configurations. Therefore, the characteristics of the type of wire used are such that the ductility of the steel must allow the fabrication of the turns by bending the constituent wires, and steel wires with a diameter of up to 5.0mm and generally tensile strength can be used not exceeding LOOOMPa.
- This type of mesh canvas is characterized by its three-dimensional character, given the type of fabric and braided manufacturing process.
- the three-dimensionality of the fabric is marked by the interior light of the loop that is obtained in manufacturing.
- This three-dimensionality causes that, under the hypothesis of its use as a structural membrane before external actions that generates a tensional state inside the canvas of steel wire meshes, it presents a very high deformation, by reversing the three-dimensionality of the element, therefore its use as a structural membrane is not suitable.
- this type of steel wire mesh canvases or the union of several individual canvases, when subjected to external actions present the problem of high deformation mentioned, phenomenon controlled mainly by the three-dimensionality of the mesh of meshes, among other factors .
- the deformation of the canvas of meshes of simple torsion under external actions has three components, the first component being a function of the manufacturing process and of the form that the mesh of the mesh of meshes itself acquires and which gives it a three-dimensional character.
- this phenomenon is controlled by a reduction of interior light of the individual turns and by a reduction of the radius of curvature of the vertices of the windings when subjected to external actions that cause tensile stress inside the mesh of meshes.
- This deformational component is permanent and non-recoverable after the end of the application of the external actions, since the canvas of meshes when subjected to stress is deformed in a plastic way, reducing the interior light of the turns that make up the canvas of meshes and decreasing the radius of curvature of the vertices of the turns, resulting in permanent deformation in the main direction of the mesh of meshes.
- the second component is a function of the type of lateral closing knots of the turns used in the manufacture of the mesh canvas.
- This deformational component is of permanent and non-recoverable character after the end of the application of the external actions since the canvas of meshes, being subjected to stresses, at the same time as the reduction of the interior light of the turns and reduction of the radius of curvature in the vertices of the turns, also tends to open the lateral closing nodes of the turns, and as a result introduces a deformation in the main direction of the mesh of meshes.
- the ends of steel meshes of the simple twist type closed ends by bending the wires on themselves have been used for the manufacture of the steel mesh canvases. This type of closure does not allow interconnection between mesh canvases or the application of significant transverse stresses to the joint line if two mesh canvases are joined by the knot line.
- the third component is elastic, due to the deformation of the steel under the stresses caused by the external application of actions.
- This deformational component is recoverable provided that the elastic range of behavior of the materials is not exceeded, and it is controllable, from the physical point of view, since it is a function of the magnitude of the external actions applied on the mesh of meshes and mechanical characteristics of said mesh canvas.
- conventional plain torsion mesh canvases may have a suitable tensile strength due to their geometric configuration and the type and diameter of the steel wire used, but they have a deformational creep phase when subjected to external actions. This phenomenon is characterized by a non-recoverable deformation for low increases in load or external action at the beginning of its application. This deformation is a function of the structure of the fabric of the steel wire mesh canvas, in particular of the interior light of the turns, as well as the type of lateral closure of the turns.
- Said structural membrane is subjected to terrain actions that result in tensile stresses and that requires its attachment to the anchor bolts by means of bracing elements and plates that allow the transmission of these efforts, offering coverage to the ground surface and functioning as a support or distribution element of the stabilizing pressure.
- This structural membrane obtained by the application of a mesh of meshes or the union of different canvases of meshes, so that they are efficient from the mechanical point of view within the system in which they are used, must be characterized because when acting as a membrane they must offer a high tensile strength but with a low deformation against the thrusts exerted by the ground.
- the typology of the canvas must be specifically adapted to the structural membrane requirements described above, in particular, to the requirement of offering a high tensile strength with a low level of associated deformation.
- individual mesh canvases must allow their connection securely, guaranteeing the transmission of efforts.
- containment and protection kits against rockfalls and impacts are also known, of the type barriers or dynamic screens composed of a structure anchored to the ground and a collection element or surface connected to the previous structure, between other solutions, steel wire mesh canvases whose function is to serve as an interposing element in the face of possible landslides and thrusts of the ground (and / or snow).
- the catchment surface is understood as the surface that interposes, supports and retains possible landslides or impacts.
- the deformation of the pick-up element is not a limiting aspect in the use of these types of solutions, but the mesh canvases to be used require a solid connection between the individual mesh canvases to withstand the impacts.
- An object of the invention is to provide a process for manufacturing mesh canvases as defined in the claims.
- At least a plurality of steel wires are actuated to form, with each wire, an individual loop of a given width, different adjacent turns are intertwined to generate a mesh of a given width each two turns, different meshes are intertwined with each other generating a set of meshes, a lateral closure is made on both lateral ends of the set of meshes and said set of meshes is prestressed obtaining a prestressed mesh of meshes.
- each lateral closure is made simultaneously and each lateral closure is made by generating a plurality of closing nodes, generating a closing knot for each mesh and making said closing knot through a twisting of one end of one of said turns with one end of the other turn, by a subsequent rotation of one end over the other end an angle of rotation such that it allows to maintain some ends of said ends in the plane of the mesh, and by folding back of said tips into the mesh assembly; and, once the lateral closures have been generated, in the procedure the set of meshes is subjected to a prestressing treatment under controlled load in the direction perpendicular to the meshes that coincides with the longitudinal direction of the set of meshes, obtaining the canvas of mesh.
- non-deformable closure knots are obtained that allow an appropriate prestressing to be obtained to obtain a mesh of meshes that can act, for example, as a structural membrane (which requires a controlled tensile behavior and with low levels of deformation low load or external actions of the mesh of meshes) or as a collection surface with controlled deformation, since the closing nodes, due to their non-deformable character obtained by how they were made, are not affected during prestressing; and even allow an easy and robust joining of different mesh canvases to each other to increase the size of the structural membrane and / or the containment kit.
- a mesh of meshes is obtained with reduction of the three-dimensional character by reduction of the interior light and the radius of curvature of the vertices of the individual turns.
- an easy transport and manipulation of the mesh cloths is allowed to avoid possible snagging or awkward situations with those tips , and also facilitate the implementation of mesh canvases for final application since these points must not be taken into account during said implementation.
- Another object of the invention is to provide a machine in which the manufacturing process of a mesh canvas as described above can be implemented.
- a mesh canvas is obtained with at least the advantages already mentioned.
- Another object of the invention relates to different possible applications of the mesh canvas obtained with the process of the first object of the invention and / or with the machine of the second object of the invention, such as its use as a flexible stabilization and protection system. of slopes (as a structural membrane), avoiding the three-dimensionality of the mesh of meshes thanks mainly to the typology of the closing knots; or as a containment and protection kit against rockfalls and impacts (as a collection surface with controlled deformation).

- Each closing knot 7; T is formed, firstly, by twisting the ends 5 of the two turns 1 that share the same closing node 7; 7 ', and for this purpose, one end 5 of one turn 1 is rotated on the end 5 of the other turn 1. Subsequently, points 6 resulting from the turns 1 are folded, after twisting, into the assembly of meshes 3.

- the procedure includes automatic intermediate stages, which correspond to:
- a second aspect of the invention refers to a machine 100 in which the method according to the first aspect of the invention can be implemented in any of its embodiments.
- the machine 100 comprises a wire feed unit 8 where individual turns 1 are formed, where the turns 1 are interwoven with each other two by two to generate meshes 2 of a given width A, and where successive meshes 2 are intertwined creating a set of meshes 3.
- the machine 100 further comprises a knotting unit 9, arranged next to the feeding unit 8, which receives the set of meshes 3 from the feeding unit 8 and where the two side seals are made simultaneously of the set of meshes 3, generating the closing nodes 7; 7 '; and a stretching unit 10 arranged next to the knotting unit 9, which receives the set of meshes 3 with the closing nodes 7; 7 'from said knotting unit 9 and where the prestressing treatment is carried out by stretching under controlled loading of the set of meshes 3, obtaining a canvas of meshes 4 with a width A equal to the width A determined of the set of meshes 3 but with a length greater than the length of said set of meshes 3 (AL greater).
- Units 8, 9 and 10 are arranged in series and synchronized with each other, such that said machine 100 is adapted to carry out the process of the first aspect of the invention in an automatic manner.
- the knotting unit 9 comprises a plurality of twisting tools 12 for each of the lateral ends 30 of the mesh assembly 3, and a static structure 13 for each side of the assembly. meshes 3.
- the twisting tools 12 are attached to the corresponding structure 13, said twisting tools 12 having freedom of rotation on their own longitudinal axis 12a and simultaneous displacement towards the turns 1.
- Each twisting tool 12 comprises a head 18 which holds the ends 5 of the turns 1 sharing the same closing node 7; 7 ', a ring 16 by means of which a rotating horizontal axis 15 inserted in the ring 16 with an inner spiral 17 is fixed to the corresponding structure 13 to allow its torsion rotation on said ends 5 and its simultaneous longitudinal displacement out of the mesh assembly 3 without the possibility of retraction of the head 18, conferring a continuous pressure without the possibility of reducing it to the lateral end 30 in the direction of rotation and of the displacement that allows the knotting without the possibility that the deformation conferred to the ends of the wires 6 of the corresponding adjacent and intertwined turns 1 are reversed, the twisting tool 12 being adapted to cause a twist of up to 360 °, such that it is adapted to cause a twist of 360 ° (first embodiment of the process of the invention) or a 180 ° twist (second embodiment of the process of the invention).
- the twisting tools 12 are therefore allowed longitudinal displacement to guarantee their approach to the lateral end 30 of the mesh set 3 and to continue with the outward movement of the mesh canvas while forming the closure knot. 7; 7 'corresponding, maintaining the pressure on said closing node 7; 7 'to not allow torsion to reverse (Figure 7b).
- the twisting tools 12 are coupled to a motor (not shown in the figures) by, for example, a gear system, the motor providing sufficient torque to cause the necessary twisting to each pair of wire tips 6 comprised in each knot of close 7; 7 'from the side end 30 of the mesh set 3.
- the heads 18 of the twisting tools 12 allow the formation of the closing knot 7; 7 'as described above, and also allow the folding of the tips 6 towards the inside of the mesh assembly 3, the heads 18 comprising a cone-shaped or double wedge folding tool 18a, which can be pneumatically or mechanically actuated by example, which pushes the tips 6 towards the inside of the mesh set 3 and positions them parallel to the axis of the closing knot 7; Corresponding T ( Figure 7c).
- the knotting unit 9 further comprises a terminal (not shown in the figures) associated with each torsion tool 12, and more specifically to the head 18 of said torsion tool 12, for when the second embodiment of the machine 100 is implemented in the machine 100 First aspect of the invention.
- a terminal (not shown in the figures) associated with each torsion tool 12, and more specifically to the head 18 of said torsion tool 12, for when the second embodiment of the machine 100 is implemented in the machine 100 First aspect of the invention.
- the set of meshes is transported to the stretching unit 10 where said set of meshes 3tal is stretched and as shown in Figure 5, obtaining a canvas of meshes 4 with an increase in its length (AL) but without reduction or variation in its width A, and with reduction of the interior light of the turns 1 and decrease in the radius of curvature of the vertices of said turns 1.
- the means of transport used in the machine 100 to transport the set of meshes 3 from one unit to another may correspond to conventional means of transport that could be used by a person skilled in the art, so they are not detailed.
- a mesh of meshes 4 obtained according to the process of the first aspect the invention or in the machine 100 of the second aspect the invention can be used, by itself or together with other canvases of analogous meshes 4, in different applications due to its undeformable characteristics already mentioned .
- An example of application is as a structural support and pressure distribution membrane in a slope stabilization and protection system, combined with a bolt system, which fixes the canvas of meshes 4 (or mesh canvases 4) to the ground.
- the wire mesh canvases 4 will be sized according to the level of resistance required, defining the pitch of the loop 1 and the diameter and tensile strength of the steel wires that make it up, thus obtaining a structural membrane with a resistance level at a given traction and a controlled deformational behavior, obtained in the prestressing phase of the process by reducing the interior light of the turns 1 and reducing the radius of curvature of the vertices of said turns 1 of the mesh canvas 4, and allowing adjustment the structural membrane solution to be used to the ground support requirement.
- a mesh of meshes 4 (or of the arrangement of more than one canvas of meshes 4 of simple torsion steel wire) works as a structural membrane in a system of stabilization and protection of slopes
- said canvas of meshes 4 must guarantee continuity in the transmission of the efforts of a canvas of meshes 4 to another canvas of meshes 4 when they are arranged adjacently and joined together, which is achieved by the existence of the closure knots 7; 7 'non-deformable that allow to transfer the efforts of some mesh canvases 4 to other mesh canvases 4, transferring the same to a bolt head by means of distribution plates or connecting plates, and, in some cases, cables and spirals of union, always with low levels of deformation of the canvas of meshes 4 and without opening or deformation of the closing nodes 7; 7 '.
- connection of the different canvases of meshes 4 adjacent to each other to form a structural membrane of continuous support is therefore carried out with connection elements that guarantee the transmission of stresses between a canvas of mesh 4 and the adjacent one and that both are held in solidarity.
- mesh canvases 4 with one another preferably using a steel cable or other element that guarantees the strength of the connection.
- connection elements 21; 23 Internally, the structural membrane may be jointly connected to bolts 22 by means of connection elements 21; 23, with internal perforation to accommodate the bolt 22 and allow the support of a connecting nut 29, the assembly may or may not be reinforced by means of bracing 24, preferably horizontal, consisting of one or more cables to confer a higher level of support to the assembly and which will determine the geometric configuration of the connection element 21; 23.
- the system achieved will have a behavior according to a geotechnical model that allows establishing the level of stabilizing support conferred to the unstable ground.
- FIG. 8 a stabilization system with punctual connection as shown in Figure 8, when the canvas of meshes 4 (or meshes of meshes 4 joined together), acting as a structural membrane, is bracing perimeter continuously and punctually fixed by means of at least one distribution plate 21 directly to the head of the bolts 22 in the inner zone thereof, with a density and arrangement thereof preferably to the triplet (not shown in the figures) and determined by the calculations Geotechnical stability of ground thrust.
- a reinforced stabilization system when a canvas of meshes 4 (or meshes of meshes 4 joined together), acting as a structural membrane, is perimeter-mounted continuously and fixedly attached to the head of bolts 22 in the inner zone thereof by means of connecting plates 23 and horizontal reinforcement bracing 24, with a bracing line as shown in Figure 9 or with two bracing lines as shown in Figure 10, preferably high strength steel cables, which are placed longitudinally along the slope and evenly spaced thereon.
- the reinforcement cables is used for the connection of the reinforcement cables to the structural membrane as shown in Figures 9 and 10, spirals 25 of diameter steel wire and the same type of wire used for the manufacture of the canvas of meshes 4, with a step proportional to that of the canvas of meshes 4 to allow its connection in the exposed manner.
- different mesh canvases 4 can also be connected to each other by using a steel cable or other element that guarantees the strength and continuity of the connection.
- the different sectors of connection of the bracing to the structural membrane can be independent and alternated, providing solid unions that prevent, in the case of breakage of any connection, the transmission of the fault to the rest of the sectors.
- This distribution surface once installed, loaded and correctly attached to the ground as a structural membrane of a stabilization system, due to the low level of deformation that it presents when it is loaded by the action of the ground thrust, allows to obtain a system adequate to the levels of ground support requirements adapting the structural membrane to be used in terms of its geometry, strength of steel and wire diameter.
- Another example of application is as a structural membrane used as a collection surface within a kit to contain mudflows or debris, soil thrusts and / or snow and protection against rockfalls and impacts, conveniently fixed to the support structure of the kit so that in the event of a force of thrust or an impact transfer the efforts generated on it to the structure of posts, cables and bolts to the ground without opening or deformation of the knots and with deformation control.
- wire mesh canvases 4 In general, the technology of wire mesh canvases 4 currently existing, in particular those known as simple twist and manufactured with different diameters and grades of steel, are applicable in general uses and cannot be used directly as structural membranes with resistant function where high resistance with low deformation is essential.
- the mesh canvases 4 of the invention allow them to be subjected to external actions that produce a flat tension on them, but with low levels of deformation.
- These structural membranes allow working conditions thereof, and in particular within their preferred use as a structural support and distribution membrane as part of a slope stabilization system, catchment surface of a mud flow containment kit or debris, snow thrusts and protection against rockfalls and impacts, or in general for any application in which a structural function is required, a controlled load-deformation behavior with low levels of deformation for high levels of load.

Abstract
Procédé et machine de fabrication de panneaux de treillis, comprenant les opérations consistant à agir sur des fils métalliques de manière à former une spire avec chaque fil, à entrelacer les différentes spires adjacentes deux par deux, pour former une maille, et à entrelacer les différentes mailles entre elles pour former un ensemble de mailles (3), à réaliser une fermeture latérale à chaque extrémité latérale (30) de l'ensemble de mailles (3), et à soumettre l'ensemble de mailles (3) à un traitement de précontrainte, pour obtenir un panneau de treillis. Les fermetures latérales d'un ensemble de mailles (3) sont réalisées simultanément, et chaque fermeture latérale est réalisée par formation d'une pluralité de noeuds de fermeture. Chaque noeud de fermeture est réalisé par une torsion par un mouvement tournant d'une extrémité d'une spire sur une extrémité d'une autre spire, suivie d'un repliage des pointes vers l'intérieur.
