Definitions

  • the present invention concerns, in general, road signalling means, and it particularly pertains to an additional flag-type marker designed to be applied to posts marking the edge of a carriageway, new jersey's and road barriers (guard rails).
  • Means for marking the edge of carriageways such as posts, new jersey's and guard rails, are provided with reflectiiig studs, i.e. optical signs, which mark the edge of the carriageway, specially when visibility is reduced.
  • Document US-A-3 863 595 representative of the background art, discloses a device designed as a "grass guard" having a supporting post member which carries adjacent its upper end a laterally-extending flexible arm, designed to come into contact with the dumpers of a vehicle.
  • a device represent an autonomous warning means which requires a particular, specific post in order to be installed along a roadway edge at the height of the bumpers of vehicles. This also means that it cannot be attached to already existing structure, such as concrete new jersey barriers, metal guard-rail and the like.
  • Document FR-a-2 615 540 simply discloses a signalling means for reflecting light which has a fixing device to maintain its position.
  • the reflecting structure has, however, a solid, rigid plate, which is unsuitable for receiving knocks and which may damage a vehicle if it is collided with the vehicle.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide an additional marker which is designed to be applied like a flag to common means used for marking the edge of the carriageway, so as to protrude from them and be struck by the vehicle which is deviating towards said means.
  • the marker proposed by the present invention is flexible and made from an adequate material so as not to damage the vehicles that strike it; however, its physical contact with the vehicle will advantageously signal the driver that he is getting near the edge of the carriageway and that he should therefore recover the correct direction.
  • reference numeral 10 indicates an additional marker which may be applied, like a flag turned towards the carriageway, to means designed to mark the edge of a carriageway such as posts 11, new jersey's 12 and guard rails 13.
  • the flag-type marker 10 is made from plastic, flexible and non-deformable; it is thin and has a thicker reinforcement 10' in its upper area and at the junction with the means 11, 12, 13.
  • the marker may also be provided, in its middle area, with a reflecting stud 14.
  • the reinforced areas 10' ensure the flag-type shape of the marker after installation and its resistance to stresses due to the collisions it may be subject to.
  • the marker 10 may be provided or integral with a base support 15 made from plate or from any other adequate material.
  • the base support 15 of the flag-type marker 10 is, for instance, recessed and fixed by means of rivets 16 or the like to the respective post, as shown in Fig. 5.
  • the posts installed along a carriageway appear as shown in Fig. 4.
  • the base support 15 may be as shown in Fig. 6.
  • the base support will be designed so as to fit the profile of such barrier.
  • the flag-type marker will adequately protrude towards the carriageway so as to be intercepted and struck by vehicles which get unintentionally too close to the edge of the carriageway, with the result and the advantages as described above.
