Description

The invention relates to emergency signage for displaying In Formations with a frame and a plate.

Known emergency signs consist, for example, of a plat te made of plastic or metal, the plate be on a base is consolidated. Embodiments of an emergency sign are also shown in Shape of a film known, which is glued to a base the. Here, the plate or the film is printed with a symbol or coated, which gives its viewer a corresponding note shows.

Often the symbol or the plate or foil are glowing Pigments filled in so that the information of the symbols for example even in poor lighting conditions, at least temporarily too are known. Such signage is for example in the Utility model DE 295 08 920 U1 described.

A disadvantage of signage designed in this way is that for example, when there is a lot of heat there is a risk that the Ma material of the plate or the coating deforms or burns, so that the original information of the emergency signs was lost  goes. This is particularly dangerous if this causes a menu is endangered.

Another embodiment of emergency signage is in Pa DE 696 02 492 T2. Here, the emergency services portraying a lighting device to in poor lighting conditions provide better and clearer information on the emergency signs display to a viewer. Emergency signage designed in this way basically work very well until, for example, strong ones The rescue signs deformed or damaged when exposed to heat is, so that the information content of the emergency signs get lost. Especially if the lighting device is damaged an escape shield constructed in this way, if at all, only a few rings meaningfulness.

Dangerous goods rescue signs are also known, for example Motor vehicles are attached. These indicate dangerous goods, so that in the event of an accident, the rescue personnel are informed about the type of trans ported goods is informed. Thus, any necessary ret maintenance work or precautionary measures are taken early, where at the hazard potential that arises from such a dangerous good, can be restricted.

However, it is disadvantageous that the information of the dangerous goods for example with a lacquer-like coating on the Base body of the dangerous goods rescue label is applied, so that in the  In case of strong heat or fire, this coating it simply melts away or burns or is deformed in such a way that here too the original information on the hazardous goods rescue label is no longer visible, especially for the rescue personnel.

The well-known emergency signs or hazardous goods signs generally have the disadvantage that in the event of fire either the reeds who burn himself or the labels on the heat influence becomes illegible.

The object of the invention is now such rescue signs to develop further.

The object of the invention is achieved by a rescue worker description for displaying information with a frame and egg ner plate solved, the plate is a three-dimensional upper has area. Here, the emergency signage is, for example Dangerous goods labeling on a means of transport or a note sign for an escape route in a building. Through the three-dimensional trained or shaped surface, the information remains considerable heat exposure due to the shape of the shield and thus get the information of the sign.

But not just recognizing the information in a hot weather effect is guaranteed, but also in the event of smoke. is The view according to the invention can be severely restricted by smoke  Rescue signs or the three-dimensional surface be felt. This is also advantageous for absolute dun, for example kelheit, in which an optical recognition of the information of the rescue description is no longer possible. The Rettungsbe invention In such cases, the description enables the rescue to be informed to feel signs, so that, for example, the direction in one Escape route is available, can be felt.

The framework of the emergency signs can be different Sizes can be designed so that any required regulations, for example wise with regard to a minimum size of emergency signage be adhered to without hesitation.

The plates can be cut, for example, by milling, lasering, nibbling, punching or casting.

It is particularly advantageous that the three-dimensional upper to recognize the surface of the plate even in the most adverse visibility conditions special is palpable.

According to the invention it is proposed that the three-dimensional training surface includes a pictogram. For example, this spades togramm is an emblem that has an arrow that indicates the escape hatch display. Such pictograms are preferably in the plate punched so that a breakthrough occurs, the breakthrough being an ent forms a speaking emblem. Such plates can be hung up freely  placed on or on one level, such as another plate become. For example, in brackets for vehicle dangerous goods signs correspondingly milled metal plates are used, which make it possible even if the signs are severely impaired in the event of a branch read the necessary information. A colored version tion or execution from different types of metal is possible, however unnecessary. Further advantageous embodiments provide that the plate next to the pictograms, also numbers and / or symbols can point.

A particularly advantageous embodiment provides that the picto Gram completely or at least in part by means of the outer contour of the Rescue signs are trained. The frame of the emergency sign change can be designed such that it has an arrow, for example represents, whereby a printing or coating of the plate by a corresponding symbol is no longer necessary.

It is also advantageous if the plate is exchangeable. Insbesonde re for transport facilities, such as a dangerous goods transport ter, it is advantageous to the plate, which the information in the form of the picto gramms contains, if necessary or for a new transport item switch.

It is advantageous if the frame has a base plate. in this connection For example, the base plate can be a permanent or temporary inventory be part of the frame. The surface of the base plate is more advantageous  Way painted, the painting either the entire base plate comprises or only a portion, preferably a visible Be rich, the base plate.

For example, the plate with the three-dimensional top arranged in front of the base plate so that the colored area of the Base plate only in the area of the elaborated pictogram of the Plate can be seen. Then the color of the base plate shows a light ting or reflecting property, the pictogram experiences one increased recognition content. The color of the base plate can be such be chosen so that it meets a required color standard. For example is the representation of a flame in a prescribed color again add so that the base plate is painted with this color. It understands that the base plate itself can be made of one material, which is colored.

It is particularly advantageous if the base plate also has the picto Gram of the three-dimensionally formed surface of the plate. This increases security, for example if the disk is lost the emblem, which is the three-dimensional surface points, in the form of a lacquer layer or a film on the base plate he hold and thus remains visible.

According to a further embodiment, it is advantageous if the frame men includes at least one opening in which at least one plate is inserted. For example, the frame has a basic shape in  Shape up a "U's" so that the individual panels pass through the top not closed area of the "U's" can be inserted into the frame can.

It is advantageous if the opening has a leaf spring. example the leaf spring is rotatably fixed at one end of the "U" and on the other end of the "U" can be folded away. So the leaf spring can be lift off the frame, thereby opening the frame is released and for example a plate inserted into the frame can be stuck.

It is particularly advantageous if the emergency signs are secure tion device, in particular for opening the rescue description. For example, this security device is on one side attached to the U-frame, on which the leaf spring is lifted off can. If the leaf spring lies against the profile of the frame, the siche tion device such as a padlock fourth that the leaf spring is not in this area of the profile frame more can be lifted off. Unauthorized removal of the plat prevented by third parties.

It is understood that there are a variety of options here Design the opening of the emergency signs so that the Ver closing of the opening does not necessarily require the use of a leaf spring limited. This also applies to the security facility, which does not must be locked with a padlock. at  for example, the securing device includes an option for attachment security seal so that an unauthorized swapping of the plates of the emergency signage when checking the security seal is discovered immediately.

Preferably, the frame has a plurality of grooves in which the Plates are guided. For example, the frame has on the inside a plurality of spaced apart webs, so that this a plurality of grooves are formed in the plates from the opening the frame can be inserted or inserted. So has each plate has a secure fixation within the frame. It is also possible that the frame has additional means, for example one further leaf spring, which several plates inserted into the frame press against each other if there are several plates in a wider groove are located.

According to a supplementary embodiment of the invention, it is provided that the frame has means for fastening to a base. A The base area is, for example, masonry, a pillar or a Component of a truck body. For example, the frame has one Angle so that the emergency signs in the area of a corner ver Binding a wall pull can be attached. Through eyelets on the frame A wire or a rope can be guided so that the rescue Description freely hung in a room, preferably on a ceiling can be.  

A particularly preferred embodiment provides that further plat ten, which have at least partial areas of the pictogram, in the The emergency signs are inserted.

Here there is the possibility of a pictogram with several plates to put together. This is particularly advantageous if a picto grams should be designed multicolored or must be designed.

It is usually an advantage if the other panels are each in one Base color of the emergency signage with paints and / or foils are stratified. Do the plates have a different one from the other? Basic color, can for example be colored emergency signs Combination of the different colored plates can be realized.

It is advantageous if the other plates with fasteners on the Plate and / or are attached to the base plate. This will create more plates a mutually fixed plate package, which for example can be put together in advance and only if necessary as a unit is inserted into the frame. The fastening of the plates to each other this is by screwing, riveting, clamping, gluing or by egg ne Velcro connection possible.

A preferred embodiment provides that the rescue signs tion has a two-part surface, the two surfaces in front preferably have an angle to each other. This is particularly advantageous clinging if emergency signage is in an angled area  must be ordered. If an emergency sign in a corner rich in masonry, the angled rescue can description are placed on the edge of the masonry. If the Emergency signage a hinge between the divided surfaces has, with which any angle is adjustable, it does not play Roll what angle the two surfaces have to each other.

It is suggested that the emergency signage illuminate has device. This lighting device can be used in any Position relative to the emergency signs. Especially However, it is advantageous if the lighting device is above the Emergency signage is arranged. The lighting is preferred device aligned so that the plate with the three-dimensional trained surface only illuminates and not, especially in Breakthrough area, illuminated. This will increase the risk of Avoid glare to a person through the lighting device. This applies in particular if the emergency signs are freely suspended in one Space is arranged.

Ultimately, it is proposed that at least one component of the rescue team description is made of a fire-resistant material. at for example, this is steel, glass or any other suitable fire constant material. Due to the fire resistance or heat resistance The material is guaranteed to be three-dimensionally formed Surface containing the emblem, even when exposed to extreme heat  or is retained in the event of fire, so that even in poor visibility nissen the emblem can be felt. For example, feel here a person has an arrow indicating the direction of an escape route.

The emergency signage according to the invention, with at least one plate, which preferably consists of a non-combustible material it also by the way the emblem is represented a destruction of the color of the plates, still one optical as well as tactile recognition of the information notice the emergency signs.

In addition to the optical perception of the known Rescue signs created a way to share the information to feel the emergency signs and thus the information area to recognize the emergency signs.

Further advantages, goals and characteristics of the present invention will become apparent explained with reference to the description of accompanying drawings, in which a variety of emergency signs are shown as examples.
