Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a rigid flagpole, said flagpole can be mounted on the external wall of a building or similar where held by means of a pole holder.
  • a flagpole of the aforementioned kind is generally known.
  • the problem with a flag fixed to the said pole is that the flag wraps around the pole due to the wind.
  • Another significant problem is that water droplets, which are the result of weather conditions, drip from the tip, the flag, and the flagpole onto the wall on which said flagpole mounted. This results as damages of the wall.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a new flagpole that eliminates the shortcomings of the known solutions.
  • a flagpole for a flag 2 is intended to be fixed to a pole holder 3, which is mounted on an external wall 4 of a building or similar.
  • a first free end of a pole 1 is intended for cooperation with the said pole holder 3 while the opposite end of the pole 1 is intended for holding the flag 2.
  • the said flagpole according to the invention comprises at least two longitudinally connected tubes 5, 6 arranged to rotate against each other, whereby a first tube 5 is fixed and intended to cooperate with the pole holder 3, whereas a second tube 6 is intended to receive the flag 2 and rotate about the longitudinal axis of the pole 1 relative to the first tube 5.
  • the length of each tube 5, 6 is preferably approximately the same; however, the lengths of tubes 5, 6 can also differ significantly.
  • Rotating the tubes 5, 6 against each other can also be achieved with one, preferably at least two, optionally more, bearing means 7 fixed individually or in pairs longitudinally inside each tube 5, 6.
  • Each bearing means 7 can be a sliding bearing, rolling bearing, or similar.
  • each bearing means 7 in each tube 5, 6 is located in each extreme end area of the tube 5, 6.
  • the said tubes 5, 6 are mutually fixed in position by means of a connecting pole 8, which extends through the corresponding hole of the respective bearing means 7 along at least one part of the pole 1 length.
  • the said connecting pole 8 is formed at least on its first far end, which lies in the area of pole 1 intended for holding the flag 2, with a threaded means 9, e.g., a threaded protrusion, which is intended for cooperation with an opposite threaded means 10, e.g., a nut.
  • the present invention provides for that sections of the said connecting pole 8 extends piecewise inside a sleeve 11, which holds the said bearing means 7 at a fixed distance from one another.
  • the connecting pole 8 may be fixed inside the first tube 5 by means of the said bearing means 7; alternatively, it can be inserted and fixed firmly in the first tube 5, e.g., by means of a shrink joint.
  • the second tube 6, which is intended to hold the flag comprises on its free end, i.e., the end facing away from the first tube 5, an end element 12, which is, for example, designed as a sphere, tip, or similar.
  • the said end element 12 is, for example, firmly connected by means of a threaded joint to the threaded means 9 of the connecting pole 8.
  • the end element 12, is formed on the side facing the free end of the second tube 6 with a flange 13, which is intended as a first drip-off element to prevent water dripping down the pole 1.
  • the end element 12 is formed in the extension of the flange 13 and in the longitudinal direction of the pole 1 towards the tube 5 with a cover element 14, which is impermeable to water and surrounds and closes off the said free end of the second tube 6.
  • a cover element 14 which is impermeable to water and surrounds and closes off the said free end of the second tube 6.
  • the pole 1 for a flag 2 comprises at least one additional drip-off element 15, which is located in the area of the third of the first tube 5, which cooperates with the said pole holder 3.
  • the additional drip-off element 15 may be, for example, formed as a protrusion extending at least partly around the circumference and approximately perpendicular to the first tube 5.
  • the additional drip-off element 15 may be, for example, formed in a sense of an element comprising several threads of a helix, which is wrapped around the circumference of the first tube.
  • the helix-shaped drip-off element 15 may be selected as a compression spring in a form of a metal strip or a wire with a circular cross-section, and similar.
