Description

Signaling device.

Object of the invention

The present invention, as expressed by the set forth in this specification, refers to a device for signaling, being of the type formed by a plate Container of the coded message according to the legislation in force in road traffic matter, which is attached to a fixed post down.

Background of the invention

Currently signaling devices Conventional type, have a post with profile tubular or not, to which they are fixed by means of union Conventional, commonly clamps, the elements signaling devices

Description of the invention

In general, the device for signaling, object of the invention, is also especially useful for the location of the well-known traffic signs, although provides for its use for any other type of signaling.

It is composed of an extruded tubular profile which has two points facing its section in general circular, of both incoming or recessed channels that define channels longitudinal in the post. From the bottom of these channels emerges a "T" nerve defining anchoring means of the plate signaling, at the desired height and in a coupling that it carries out through an extruded laminar profile and which is provided on one of its faces, with a pair of sideburns mutually facing bends that make up a "T" lane in a complementary way to that of the "T" nerve of the profile tubular post.

The signaling plate, regardless of the geometric shape that it presents is fixed to said laminar profile by conventional means of screwing, riveting, etc., and of this way the connection can be made by sliding on the nerve in "T" of the post.

To set the plate to the desired height, in instead of securing by means of screws, clamps, etc., as usual, a pair of skewered rings is arranged on the pole, one of which is placed prior to assembly by sliding of the signaling plate and then the other ring, becoming solidary both to the post.

These rings have a configuration determined and very tight to that offered by the tubular profile of the signaling post, since it is obtained from a profile extruded tubular which is cut into portions of the length required, having an annular emptying provided in two points facing each other, of two pairs of mutually angled sideburns faced and similar to those of the laminar profile above commented. These pairs of angled pins determine each other "T" rails in which the nerves will be housed in "T" of the tubular profile of the post.

These rings are expected to include radial holes for fixing screws to the profile tubular post, at the desired height.

Once the bottom ring is placed and fixed, by sliding the signaling plate, the profile laminar is supported on said ring since it is inserted in the "T" nerve of the tubular profile. When placing the ring upper, it is supported on the laminar profile, with that when fixing it by means of screws corresponding in radial arrangement, you get a perfect immobilization for the signaling plate.

With a structure of the tubular profile of the pole as described, it is possible to set two signaling elements oriented in opposite directions of circulation, due to the existence of two channels and nerves in "T" arranged in diametral opposition in the pole or mast of support.

To facilitate the understanding of characteristics of the invention and forming an integral part of this Descriptive report, accompanying some sheets of plans in whose figures, with an illustrative and non-limiting nature represented the following:

Description of the preferred embodiment

Referring to the numbering adopted in the figures, we can see how the device for signaling, which the invention proposes, is of the known type of signals of traffic determined by a signaling plate (1) with the coded message, which is attached to a post (2) fixed to the ground and at a certain height to become perfectly visible to the drivers.

The post (2) is defined by a tubular profile  obtained by extrusion, which preferably has two recessed or longitudinal channels in opposite generatrices, of whose bottom is born a nerve (3) in "T". This nerve (3) that doesn't protrudes from the circular contour of the post (2) but makes up with it determines anchoring means of the plate (1) or plates (1) of proper signaling, such as any of the signals of traffic with the different geometric shapes and themselves known. As an example, a circular plate has been shown.

The coupling of the plate (1) in one of the nerves (3) of the post (2), or of two plates (1) in the respective nerve (3) to offer the coded message in both directions running, is done through another profile (4) extruded of laminar structure that is firmly fixed to the back side of the plate (1) and offering two angled pins (5) conformants of a nerve receptor lane (3) in "T", entering by sliding.

The height setting of the plate (1) of signaling is achieved with the two rings (6) that are strung on the profile of the post (2) and that have two pairs of pins (7) faced diametrically, among which one receives tightly the nerve (3) in "T", similar to how connect the laminar profile (4) to the post (2).

The lower ring (6) acts as a stop for the laminar profile (4) with the plate previously fixed to it and then the upper ring (6) is placed that will rest on the same profile laminate (4).

The lower ring (6) is first fixed to the desired height and after threading the plate and the ring (6) upper, it is also fixed with screws or rivets (8) through the holes (9) existing in points of the ring (6) away from the angled pins (7).

Although the laminar profile (4) may be smaller length than the diameter of the plate (1), or in general of different dimensions to those offered by that plate (1) to be installed, it will always be perfectly retained because the laminar profile (4) it is immobilized by the rings (6) that stop at it. With this arrangement and because the thickness of the ring does not exceed thickness of the laminar profile (4), the upper ring, the lower one, or both can be hidden behind the plate (1).
