Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION [Industrial Application Field] The present invention relates to a roadside wooden brick laying frame used for placing wooden bricks in place of roadside curbstones.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, there is no wooden brick laying frame for road edges for laying wooden bricks in place of road curbs.

Paving roads and plazas with wooden bricks has become increasingly popular in recent years as people become more natural-oriented in their living environments, and many examples of this work have come to be seen. However, at present, the method used to lay wood bricks is to install concrete curb stones at the edge of the road and then lay them inside the concrete curb stones.
Furthermore, the method of laying wooden bricks as described above has changed from a method of consecutively installing individual wooden bricks to a method of using a laying frame provided with a plurality of individual frames for holding a plurality of wooden bricks. A method using this construction frame has already been proposed by the applicant of the present invention.

To explain this a little bit, the wooden brick laying frames that the applicant of the present invention has proposed so far are of a type that is composed of a plurality of individual frame bodies, and the frame bodies are of a circular planar frame and a rectangular frame. They are arranged horizontally and vertically, except in cases where the frames are combined.
(Utility Application No. 61-44230, Utility Application No. 61-100730, etc.) [Problem to be solved by the invention] When paving a road with wooden bricks, it is natural that the curbs should also be made of wooden bricks. This is something that is desired.

The laying frame already proposed by the present inventor is as described above, so if this is used as it is up to the road edge, it can be installed without any particular problem if the road edge is straight, but if it is even slightly curved. If there is, the corresponding side would have to be cut along the curve, which would be extremely troublesome.

[Means for solving problems]

The gist of the structure of the present invention is that a plurality of individual frames into which one wooden brick can be charged are arranged in series, and each adjacent individual frame is spaced apart from each other by a flexible connecting means. Each of the individual frames is provided with a fixing means for fixing the wooden bricks loaded therein, and the outer ends of the individual frames at both ends are provided with detachable means for connecting to each other laying frame. This is a wooden brick laying frame for road edges equipped with flexible connection means.

The shape and dimensions of the individual frame bodies can be freely determined. For example, it can be configured to have a planar square, rectangular, or circular shape.

Further, as a means for fixing the wooden bricks, for example, a fixing plate is placed at the center of the bottom of the individual frame, and this is supported by arms extending from the bottom of each side, and screw holes are formed in the fixing plate. Do as you like.
Or, the bottom of the individual frame is not configured with anything at all,
The side plates can be configured as fastening means. However, as a fixing means, it is sufficient to fix the wooden bricks by driving screws or nails from the outside of the side panels.

The connecting means for connecting each individual frame body in series may be simply a plate member for connecting adjacent frame bodies. As long as it has the necessary strength, it is convenient to be as thin as possible in order to obtain flexibility.

Furthermore, the connection means formed on the individual frames at both ends can be freely configured, but one end is a female means and the other end is a male means. For example, a shaft body is configured at the tip of the plate material extending from the end,
A cylindrical body into which the shaft can be inserted is fixed to one end.

Note that it is appropriate that each of the above-mentioned members be constructed as a whole from a plastic material.

[Effect]

Since the present invention is configured as described above, it can be used in the following manner.

When laying wooden bricks on roads, plazas, and other areas, it can be used to lay the wooden bricks that make up the edges. When laying flat plates other than wooden bricks, it can also be used to lay the wooden bricks that make up the edges.

When laying wooden bricks for the road edge using this laying frame, the wooden bricks are charged and fixed in each individual frame of the laying frame in advance, and the laying frames are installed at the designated locations on site. It is convenient to do so.

A plurality of individual frames of the laying frame are each loaded with wood bricks that match the shape and dimensions of each individual frame. For example, if the planar shape of the individual frame is circular, a circular wood brick is inserted into the individual frame, and if the planar shape is square, a square wood brick is inserted into the individual frame. Thereafter, the wooden bricks are fixed within the individual frames by means of fixing means configured on the individual frames. For example, if a fixing plate is placed at the bottom, screws or nails are driven into the bottom to fix the wooden bricks, or if a side plate is configured to double as a fixing plate, from the outside. Fix the wooden bricks to the individual frames by driving nails or screwing in screws.

Next, a laying frame with wooden bricks charged and fixed in this way is placed on a predetermined road edge.

If the road edge to be laid is straight, place the laying frame while keeping the coupling means straight; for example, if it is placed on the edge of a winding road, the laying frame should be placed accordingly. The coupling means is arranged while being bent in a curved shape. The flexible design of the coupling means facilitates this.

Connections between the front and rear construction frames at both ends of the construction frame are made by the connection means. One male connecting means engages and connects the other female connecting means.

In this way, the laying frame can be placed on the road edge while being connected to the adjacent frames at the front and rear, and a road edge made of wooden bricks can be constructed. Wooden bricks, etc. will be laid inside this road edge according to the schedule. The inner wooden bricks can be laid using a laying frame in which individual frames are arranged vertically and horizontally.

As the base for the above-mentioned laying frame of the present invention, a concrete base with a smooth upper surface, a gravel base made by digging down the ground a little, filling it with gravel, and rolling it to make it smooth can be used.

Furthermore, in the road edge wooden brick laying frame of the present invention, wooden bricks are held in individual frames, and then a large number of wooden bricks are arranged perpendicularly to the length direction of the road, or By arranging a large number of bricks in parallel along the road, they can also be used to lay wooden bricks in areas other than the road edge. In this way, it is easy to lay the wooden bricks on curved roads.

〔Example〕

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, three individual frames 1, 1, 1 each having a square plan are connected in series by connecting plates 2 disposed between adjacent frames.

Each of the individual frames 1, 1, 1 is composed of side plates 3 closed on all four sides, and the side plates 3 also serve as means for fixing the wooden bricks 4. That is, the screws 5 can be screwed into the side plate 3.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 4, the side plate 3 on the end side of the individual frame 1 at one end is provided with a connecting male part 6 having a T-shape in plane, and the individual frame 1 at the other end A connecting female part 7 that can be connected to a connecting male part 6 of another laying frame f is formed on the side plate 3 on the end side.
