Abstract
A load-absorbing device initiates load forces such as cable forces or tensioning forces of sheet-shaped structures into supporting structures (10). At least one bearing element (24, 80) is anchored on supporting structure (10). A tie rod (40) of a load-absorbing part (36, 40) is connected to the bearing element. A connection device (50) for tension members (16; 98) cooperates with the tie bar (40). The connection device (50) has at least one connection wing (66) projecting laterally from the longitudinal axis (A) and forming at least one connection point (69a) offset with respect to the longitudinal axis (A).
Claims9
A load-absorbent device for introducing load forces into supporting structures, comprising:
- at least one bearing element anchorable on a supporting structure and having a support surface forming a spherical cap;
- a load-absorbing member having a tension rod connected to said bearing element;
- a connecting device for tensioning members interacting with said tension rod, said connecting device having a first connecting wing projecting laterally from a longitudinal axis of said tension rod and having a first connection point offset from said longitudinal axis;
- and
- a spherical body attached to said tension rod forming a hinge joint with said bearing element and being supported on one part of said support surface of said bearing element.
