Description
537 129 Torn TEKNISKT OMRADE Uppfinningen avser ett torn for kommunikationsutrustning, sarskilt ett torn for telekommunikationsutrustning avsett att inhysa Base Transceiver Station (BTS) for mobiltelefoni. TECHNICAL FIELD The invention relates to a tower for communication equipment, in particular a tower for telecommunication equipment intended to house the Base Transceiver Station (BTS) for mobile telephony.
BAKGRUND Konventionella antennbarare (master, torn, monopod etc) for telekommunikation är vanligen utformade som en oppen stalstruktur av fackverkstyp med en eller flera antenner hogt upp i antennbararen och telekommunikationsutrustning bl. a. sjalva BTS:en i en teknikbod for telekommunikationsutrustning anordnad nere pa marken i anslutning till antennmasten. Langa kablar s.k. "feedrar" gar mellan antennen/antennerna och BTS:en i teknikboden, vilka ger upphov till bl. a. signalforluster och dyrbara installationer pga. de langa kablarna. Den oppna strukturen medfor att denna typ avantennbarare är sarbar for vandalisering, t.ex. genom averkan av kablarna eller helt enkelt genom naturligt slitage t. ex pga. omgivande klimat. BACKGROUND Conventional antenna carriers (masts, towers, monopods, etc.) for telecommunications are usually designed as an open steel structure of the truss type with one or more antennas high up in the antenna carrier and telecommunication equipment, e.g. a. the BTS itself in a technology booth for telecommunication equipment arranged down on the ground adjacent to the antenna mast. Long cables s.k. "feeders" go between the antenna (s) and the BTS in the technology booth, which give rise to e.g. a. signal losses and expensive installations due to the long cables. The open structure means that this type of igniter is susceptible to vandalism, e.g. by cutting the cables or simply by natural wear and tear, e.g. surrounding climate.
Darfor har det fOreslagits alternativ till ovan beskrivna antennbarare av oppen stalstruktur av 20 fackverkstyp. Therefore, alternatives to the above-described open steel structure antenna carriers of the truss type have been proposed.
I t.ex. EP-A2-2360777 beskrivs en modular antenntornstruktur. Den modulara tornstrukturen är tillverkad av armerade betongsegment som staplas ovanpa varandra till en antenntornstruktur. I beskrivningen av denna antenntornstruktur av betong anges att nackdelarna med konventionella antennbarare overvinns. BI. a. overvinns nackdelarna med langa kablar mellan telekommunikationsutrustningen och antennerna, samt problemen med den oppna strukturen. En nackdel som forefaller uppkomma Or att antenntornstrukturen av betong har en betydande tyngd. Denna tyngd Or rimligen ett problem inte minst da montering av antenntornstrukturen ska utforas ute pa plats, som kanske Oven Or otillganglig. Hanteringen av den tunga antenntornstrukturen och tillverkningen av densamma Or formodligen inte heller sarskilt miljovanlig, bl. a. p.g.a. hog materialatgang. 1 537 129 KORTFATTAD BESKRIVNING AV UPPFINNINGEN Ett andamal med uppfinningen är att tillhandahalla ett torn for aft inrymma kommunikationsutrustning, exempelvis telekommunikationsutrustning avsedd for en radiobasstation i ett tradlost kommunikationsnatverk, dar tornet är lattare, billigare att tillverka och enklare att montera pa plats, samt inte minst att frakta till anvandningsplatsen. In e.g. EP-A2-2360777 describes a modular antenna tower structure. The modular tower structure is made of reinforced concrete segments that are stacked on top of each other to form an antenna tower structure. The description of this concrete antenna tower structure states that the disadvantages of conventional antenna carriers are overcome. BI. a. overcomes the disadvantages of long cables between the telecommunication equipment and the antennas, as well as the problems with the open structure. A disadvantage which appears to arise is that the antenna tower structure of concrete has a significant weight. This weight is probably a problem, not least when mounting the antenna tower structure must be carried out on site, which may also be inaccessible. The handling of the heavy antenna tower structure and the manufacture of the same Or probably not particularly environmentally friendly, e.g. a. p.g.a. hog material access. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION An object of the invention is to provide a tower for accommodating communication equipment, for example telecommunication equipment intended for a radio base station in a wireless communication network, where the tower is lighter, cheaper to manufacture and easier to assemble on site, and not least on site. to transport to the place of use.

DESCRIPTION OF EMBODIMENTS OF THE INVENTION Reference is now made to Figure 1 and Figure 2a, which show a tower according to an embodiment of the invention. The tower 10 is intended to house communication equipment, in particular telecommunication equipment 20, intended for one or more BTSs, in a wireless communication network. The tower 10 has a substantially elongated tower body 12, in this embodiment with 8 sections, with a hollow cross-section T (shown in figure 3c) which extends from a lower part 12a to an upper part 12b of the tower 10. The tower body 12 has an installation space 14 ( see figure 2a) adapted that in a type of use, ie. since the tower functions as e.g. an antenna tower, arranging the communication equipment 20 (see figure 2a) in the vicinity of one or more antennas 22 belonging to the communication equipment 20 in the upper part 12b of the tower body 12. The tower body 12 is formed of stackable tower sections 16 each having a The transverse section T, where the habitual tower section 16n is in turn formed by a plurality, has four modular parts 17an, bn, Cn, dn (see Figure 3a). Adjacent modular parts 17ar, bn, Cn, dr, are provided with fastening elements 18, such as screws and screw plates, for mounting to each other in one section. The fastening elements 18 p5 are suitably arranged inside the tower body 12, for example screws are screwed through slides in fixed plates in the horns 17an, b, cn, dn, s5 of the modular parts so that they are mounted to the respective sections 1..n, where n hat- = 8 The modular parts 17an, b, cn, dn are formed of solid wood material in the form of cross laminated timber, CLT. Has denotes the number n p5 or section 16 or modular part 17 seen as a habit in the tower 10, where n = 1 is the habit that is angst down towards the ground on which the tower stands. A roof part 12b of the tower 12 can be designed as a roofing board and be made of the same material as the tower body or other suitable weather-resistant material such as flat. P5 the roof part 12b, one or more antennas 22 are arranged and connected to the telecommunication equipment 20. The antennas 22 can also be hidden and arranged inside the tower. A gangway 15 for service personnel is suitably arranged in one of the sections, has in the first (where n = 1) section 161. The gangway 15 itself may be arranged as described in e.g. or p5 other edge set. The tower is self-supporting. The tower 10 is shown without a foundation, but can for instance be arranged on a concrete foundation.
Tornet kan aven innefatta ett lyftorgan 19 anordnat i installationsutrymmet 14, till exempel hogst upp. Lyftorganet 19 är anordnat att lyfta kommunikationsutrustning 20 upp eller ned i installationsutrymmet mellan ett servicelage S !angst ned och ett brukslage B hogre upp. Lyftorganet 19 är av vinschtyp, vilket är betydligt billigare an lyftorgan av hisstyp som exempelvis beskrivs i EP-A2-2360777. The tower may also comprise a lifting member 19 arranged in the installation space 14, for example cut up. The lifting means 19 is arranged to lift communication equipment 20 up or down in the installation space between a service layer S angst down and a use layer B higher up. The lifting means 19 is of the winch type, which is considerably cheaper than lifting means of the elevator type as described, for example, in EP-A2-2360777.
Tornet kan aven innefatta ett stegorgan (visas inte) pa vilket servicepersonal kan forflytta sig till exempel for att koppla ur eller in kommunikationsutrustningen 20 innan eller efter lyft med lyftorganet. Stegorganet i sig kan vara anordnat s5som beskrivs i t.ex. EP-A2-2360777 eller pa annat [cant satt. 4 537 129 Tornet 10 visas har i en perspektivvy schematiskt med sektionerna 16 nagot separerade fran varandra. Detta är enbart for att battre visa tornets 10 uppdelning i sektioner 161-16n och i bruk är dessa sektioner 161-16n monterade till varandra. Figur 2a visar samma torn som i figur 1 i en tvarsnittsvy, i en langdriktning genom alla 8 sektioner, fran sidan med sektionema monterade till varandra. Monteringen av tomsektionerna 161-16n kan vara ufford sasom framgar av figur 2a pa sa satt att de overlappar varandra delvis halvt i halvt i skarvarna, se aven figur 3a som visar en sprangskiss i en perspektivvy av en sektion innan montering med de modulara delarna 17a, b, c, d isar. Figur 3b visar samma sektion som i figur 3a dar de modulara delarna 17a, b, c, d är sammanfogade med varandra. Figur B-B visar samma sektion som i figur 3b i snitt langs med linje B-B. Detta ger ett starkt torn som aven är enkelt att montera, helt eller delvis i forvag eller helt eller delvis ute pa plats. The tower may also comprise a step member (not shown) on which service personnel can move, for example to disconnect or engage the communication equipment 20 before or after lifting with the lifting member. The step member itself may be arranged as described in e.g. EP-A2-2360777 or otherwise. 4,537,129 The tower 10 is shown in a perspective view schematically with the sections 16 somewhat separated from each other. This is only to better show the division of the tower 10 into sections 161-16n and in use these sections 161-16n are mounted to each other. Figure 2a shows the same tower as in figure 1 in a cross-sectional view, in a longitudinal direction through all 8 sections, from the side with the sections mounted to each other. The assembly of the empty sections 161-16n can be carried out as shown in Figure 2a in such a way that they overlap each other partly half and half in the joints, see also Figure 3a which shows an exploded view in a perspective view of a section before mounting with the modular parts 17a, b, c, d isar. Figure 3b shows the same section as in figure 3a where the modular parts 17a, b, c, d are joined together. Figure B-B shows the same section as in Figure 3b in section along line B-B. This gives a strong tower that is also easy to assemble, completely or partially in advance or completely or partially out of place.
Ovan beskrivna utforingsform av uppfinningen tillhandahaller ett torn som är miljovanligt och kostnadseffektivt, bl. a. genom att de modulara delarna 17a, b, c, d är tillverkade av ett miljOvanligt, fOrhallandevis latt och starkt massivt tramaterial i form av korsvis laminerat tra. The embodiment of the invention described above provides a tower that is environmentally friendly and cost-effective, e.g. a. in that the modular parts 17a, b, c, d are made of an unusually, relatively light and strong solid wood material in the form of cross-laminated wood.
Det massiva tramaterialet i form av korsvis laminerat tra är anpassat till tornet enligt uppfinningen, t.ex. enligt vad som beskrivs ovan. Detta skiljer sig vasentligt mot torn tillverkade pa konventionellt satt som vanligen är stalkonstruktioner av fackverkstyp, vilka är dyra, eller tunga konstruktioner av armerad betong, vilka är tunga och besvarliga att sammanfoga jamfort med tornet enligt uppfinningen. Tornen av stalkonstruktion av fackverkstyp har normalt telekommunikationsutrustningen anordnad i separat en teknikbod i anslutning till tornet, vilket medfor langa kablar mellan antennerna och telekommunikationsutrustningen. Detta ger upphov till onodiga och vanligen oonskade forluster i kablarna. The solid wood material in the form of cross-laminated wood is adapted to the tower according to the invention, e.g. as described above. This differs substantially from towers manufactured in a conventional manner, which are usually truss-type steel structures, which are expensive, or heavy reinforced concrete structures, which are heavy and difficult to join in comparison with the tower according to the invention. The trusses of truss-type steel construction normally have the telecommunication equipment arranged in a separate technology shed adjacent to the tower, which entails long cables between the antennas and the telecommunication equipment. This gives rise to unnecessary and usually unwanted losses in the cables.
Antalet vaningar 8 som visas är enbart ett exempel och kan vara flera eller farre beroende pa onskad hojd pa tornet 10. Lampligen uppvisar minst tva tornsektioner 16, exempelvis den forsta (n=1) 161 respektive den andra (n=2) 162 samma dimensioner. Men aven alla tornsektioner, har 8 stycken kan uppvisa samma dimensioner. Detta ger exempelvis ett torn som är 40 m Mgt om varje tornsektion 16 är 5 meter lang. The number of grooves 8 shown is only an example and may be more or less depending on the desired height of the tower 10. Lamply, at least two tower sections 16, for example the first (n = 1) 161 and the second (n = 2) 162, have the same dimensions . But even all tower sections, have 8 pieces can exhibit the same dimensions. This gives, for example, a tower that is 40 m Mgt if each tower section 16 is 5 meters long.
En typisk utformning av tornet 10 Or med ett kvadratiskt tvarsnitt T och ett typiskt matt pa tornet 10 Or ungefarligen 1,6*1,6 meter i tvarsnitt (fran ytterkant till ytterkant), sasom framgar av figur 2a och 2b. Figur 2b visar ett tvarsnitt langs med linje A-A i figur 2a. Om mattet pa 537 129 tornet är ungefarligen 1,6*1,6 meter ryms tv5 BTS:er normalt i bredd, vilket är fordelaktigt. P5 lampliga stallen mellan sektionerna 16 al- golv 16a anordnade, se figur 2c dar en lucka 16b medger for servicepersonal att forflytta sig mellan olika sektioner i tornet. Tornet kan 5N/en vara utformat p5 annat satt sasom en trekant, oktagon eller p5 annat lampligt satt. A typical design of the tower 10 Or with a square cross section T and a typical mat on the tower 10 Or is approximately 1.6 * 1.6 meters in cross section (from outer edge to outer edge), as shown in Figures 2a and 2b. Figure 2b shows a cross section along line A-A in figure 2a. If the mat on the 537 129 tower is approximately 1.6 * 1.6 meters, tv5 BTSs will normally fit in width, which is advantageous. P5 suitable stables between the sections 16 al- floor 16a arranged, see figure 2c where a hatch 16b allows for service personnel to move between different sections in the tower. The tower can 5N / en be designed in another way such as a triangle, octagon or in another suitable way.
De modulara delarna 17 uppvisar lampligen en tjocklek mellan 50 — 320 mm, men 5N/en andra tjocklekar är tankbara forutsatt att hallfastheten blir den onskade. De modulara delarna 17 kan 5N/en ha flerfaldigt dubblerade strukturer, exempelvis for okad hallfasthet. The modular parts 17 suitably have a thickness between 50 - 320 mm, but 5N / a second thicknesses are conceivable provided that the half-strength becomes the desired one. The modular parts 17 may have 5N / s multiplied structures, for example for increased hall strength.
Enligt alternativa utforingsformer av uppfinningen kan de modulara delarna 17a, b, c, d vara forsedda med olika vaderbestandiga ytskikt, t.ex. med ett dukmaterial 13, sasom en hogtryckslaminat for skydd mot UV-stralar eller sa kan tornet malas med vaderbestandig farg. Kompakt hogtryckslaminat , typiskt 1- 10 mm tjockt, ar lampligen p5 en kortsida n5got langre an en langsida av respektive modulara delar 17a, b, c, d sa att nasta angransande del langre ned i tornet vid monteringen tacks av den overlappande plastfilmen. Lampligen ar plastfilmen p5 sin overlappande fria del da belagd med ett vidhaftningsmedel sasom lim for att bilda ett vaderbestandigt skydd. De modulara delarna 17a, b, c, d forses lampligen med dukmaterialet 13 redan d5 de tillverkas, vilket medfor fordelen att tornets utseende kan goras klart redan i fabrik. Detta gar att tornets utseende pa ett enkelt och billigt satt kan bestammas redan i fabrik och dukmaterialens stora variationsmojligheter medger att i stort sett vilket onskat utseende som heist kan valjas, vilket inte torde vara mojligt med torn av hittills [Kant slag. Stalkonstruktioner till exempel kan p5 sin VI* tillverkas i olika farger men knappast med sarskilt olika ytstrukturer. Betongtorn har antagligen annu fat-re variationsmojligheter, atminstone som ar ekonomiskt forsvarbara. According to alternative embodiments of the invention, the modular parts 17a, b, c, d may be provided with different weather-resistant surface layers, e.g. with a fabric material 13, such as a high-pressure laminate for protection against UV rays or the tower can be painted with weather-resistant paint. Compact high-pressure laminate, typically 1-10 mm thick, is suitably on a short side slightly longer than a long side of the respective modular parts 17a, b, c, d so that the next adjacent part further down in the tower during assembly is thanked by the overlapping plastic film. Lamply, the plastic film on its overlapping free part is then coated with an adhesive such as glue to form a weather-resistant protection. The modular parts 17a, b, c, d are suitably provided with the fabric material 13 already d5 they are manufactured, which has the advantage that the appearance of the tower can be made clear already in the factory. This means that the appearance of the tower in a simple and inexpensive way can be determined already in the factory and the large variation possibilities of the fabric materials allow that virtually any desired appearance can be chosen, which should not be possible with towers of hitherto [Edge type. Steel constructions, for example, p5 sin VI * can be manufactured in different colors but hardly with particularly different surface structures. Concrete towers probably have even greater possibilities for variation, at least which are economically defensible.
Tornet 10 enligt uppfinningen kan 5N/en forses med luftning och/eller kylning (som inte visas explicit). Exempelvis är luftningen anordnad i tornets ovre del, sarskilt i taket 12b. Kylningen kan till exempel utformas som mekanisk luftning, sasom en flakt med filter anordnade i nedre delen 12a av tornet 10. The tower 10 according to the invention can 5N / en be provided with aeration and / or cooling (which is not shown explicitly). For example, the ventilation is arranged in the upper part of the tower, especially in the roof 12b. The cooling can for instance be designed as mechanical aeration, such as a flat with filters arranged in the lower part 12a of the tower 10.
Figur 4 visar en transportcontainer innehallande ett torn dar tv5 sektioner 161, 162 ar sammanfogade och monterade till varandra och resterande sektioner 16n till tornet annu ar separerade och omonterade. Lampligen ar sektionerna 16 omkring 5 meter I5nga s5 att tv 6 537 129 sektioner pa langden ryms i en 40 fots standardcontainer. Genom den sinnrika utformningen av tornet enligt uppfinningen sasom beskrivs ovan i anslutning till de olika utforingsformerna och med ritningsfigurerna tillhandahalls ett latt transporterat torn for kommunikationsutrustning. Mindre storlek pa torn kan med fordel inhysas i en mindre container sasom en 20 fots standardcontainer. Figure 4 shows a transport container containing a tower where two sections 161, 162 are joined and mounted to each other and the remaining sections 16n to the tower are still separated and unassembled. For example, sections 16 are about 5 meters long so that two 6,537,129 sections in length can be accommodated in a standard 40-foot container. Due to the ingenious design of the tower according to the invention as described above in connection with the various embodiments and with the drawing figures, a lightly transported tower is provided for communication equipment. Smaller tower sizes can be accommodated in a smaller container such as a standard 20-foot container.
Aven om uppfinningen i de olika utforingsformerna som beskrivits ovan framst handlar om telekommunikationsutrustning till exempel for mobiltelefoni är uppfinningen inte pa nagot satt begransad till telekommunikation utan alla typer av kommunikation inklusive datakommunikation är tankbara inom ramen for uppfinningen. 7 Although the invention in the various embodiments described above primarily concerns telecommunication equipment, for example for mobile telephony, the invention is in no way limited to telecommunications, but all types of communication including data communication are conceivable within the scope of the invention. 7
