Improvements in a tubular scaffold.

摘要

The invention relates to tubular-type scaffoldings, to a method for assembling them and to the horizontal transoms incorporated therein. A scaffolding according to the invention comprises vertical elements bearing sockets on each of which may be fixed one end of a horizontal transom bearing a fork and a conical pin prisoner therein. Near its end, the pin comprises a protruding pivot. At rest, the pin occupies a substantially horizontal position and the upper edge of the socket abuts slightly to the rear of the pivot and causes the pin to pivot to vertical position. One application of the invention is the erection of scaffoldings for the construction of buildings, ships or reservoirs.
