Definitions
- the present invention relates to a safety device for motorcyclists, which has been particularly designed for wayside safety barriers.
- the inventive device has been specifically designed to provide an improved guardrail or safety barrier arrangement, in particular a corrugated cross-section steel safety barrier, arranged along road edges or sides, and preferably at road curves, or on highway middle lines, to prevent motor vehicles from exiting the road way.
- an improved guardrail or safety barrier arrangement in particular a corrugated cross-section steel safety barrier, arranged along road edges or sides, and preferably at road curves, or on highway middle lines, to prevent motor vehicles from exiting the road way.
- a prior solution for overcoming the above problem provides to use a U-shape safety barrier band attached to the barrier poles by specifically designed attaching brackets and bolts.
- the aim of the present invention is to provide such a safety barrier device adapted to prevent, or at least greatly reduce, possible damages to a motorcyclist impacting against a wayside safety barrier.
- a main object of the invention is to provide such a safety device which can be easily and quickly applied to existing road safety barriers in general.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide such a safety device, which, in a case of a high impact speed, allows the impact load to be evenly distributed, while preventing a motorcyclist from intruding under the protective element.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide such a safety device which can be easily made and which, moreover, is very competitive from a mere economic standpoint.
- a safety device for motorcyclists to be specifically applied to wayside safety barriers, characterized in that said safety device comprises a substantially omega-shape contoured element, directly attached to the safety barrier supporting poles and bearing thereon at least at two bearing points, a top bearing point and a bottom bearing point, said bearing points corresponding to the base portions of said omega-shape contoured element.
- a preferred embodiment of the safety device 1 comprises an omega-shape contoured element 2 directly fixed to a supporting pole 3 of the barrier by one, or preferably two, stainless steel strip elements 4.
- the wayside or road safety barrier which has been generally indicated by the reference number 100, comprises a plurality of said safety barrier supporting poles 3, suitably anchored to the ground 5, and supporting, through supporting elements 7, at least a corrugated band 6.
- omega-shape contoured element 2 is associated with each supporting pole 3 by a double bearing arrangement, corresponding to the base portions 8 of the omega contoured element, differently from a conventional type of anchoring system which usually comprises a simple bracket arrangement.
- the omega-shape contoured protective element occupies a comparatively large part of the space included between the barrier corrugated band to which said omega-shape contoured element is applied, and the barrier supporting ground.
- the above disclosed and shown bearing arrangement allows the impacting load to be evenly distributed, in particular in a case of a comparatively high impact speed accident, thereby preventing the impacting motorcyclist from intruding under the protecting element.
- omega-shape cross-section of the contoured element 2 is a preferred cross-section, since it provides two anchoring points for affixing the safety barrier to the supporting pole, and, moreover, has very high deforming and resilient characteristics.
- contoured protective elements could also be used without departing from the scope of the invention.
- the invention provides a safety device for motorcyclists, adapted to either fully prevent or greatly reduce possible damages deriving from an impact of a motorcyclist against a guardrail or safety barrier.
- the used materials, as well as the contingent size and shapes can be any, depending on requirements.
