DE2344955A1 - Road sign construction kit - comprises tubular clamp connecting supports to pole and clamping elements - Google Patents

Abstract

The road signs are fitted to one or both sides of supports and the clamping elements attach one or more supports to a pole by means of a tubular clamp. The support is designed as a double T and the flange is provided with grooves in the shape of a hammer head. The clamping elements, consisting of two U-profiles and two bolts connected the supports to the tubular clamp. T-shaped projections are uniformly distributed over the outer circumference of the tubular clamp. One of the T-shaped projections has a slot in the longitudinal direction of the tubular clamp.

Set of components for the production of street signs or the like

The invention relates to a set of components for the production of street signs or the like, consisting of supports on one or both sides that receive a note or a designation, of the pipe clamp connecting one or more supports to a street pylon and of clamping elements _{0 fixing the pipe clamp to the carriers on the street pylon}

Street signs are already known which are attached to street poles by means of supports held by pipe clamps »These carriers consist of a tubular frame, which consists of several parts that can be plugged together. For fastening this carrier by means of a pipe clamp on the road pole, the pipe frame can be slipped onto two carrier pieces, each The support piece and the two corner parts of the tubular frame each have at least one tab for attaching the sign » The pipe clamp is provided with clamping ribs which are arranged at a distance corresponding to the width of the support pieces are so that the tubular frame can be fixed at different angles on the mast, so that the signs in different Directions or multiple signs can be attached to the mast at the same height «Above In addition, another frame can be attached to the tubular frame to accommodate, for example, house number plaques, in that the arms of this frame, which are designed as half-shells, are connected to the tubular frame itself by means of screws (DT-AS 1 I68 239).

The main disadvantage of this carrier designed as a tubular frame is that the tubular frame consists of several different types Individual parts are plugged together, their production complex and their assembly very time-consuming is »Another disadvantage is that to move the pipe frame to a different angular position on the mast, the pipe clamps must be solved each time, which is especially detrimental when several signs are used at the same time must be attached to the mast,

The object of the present invention is to avoid the aforementioned disadvantages and to provide a set of components for production of street signs to be created from a few simple, preferably from extruded aluminum profiles consists,

This object is achieved according to the present invention solved that the carrier double-T-shaped and their Flanges are provided with hammer-head-like grooves, the carrier being made up of two U-profile pieces and screws existing clamping elements are connected to the pipe clamp, which are arranged evenly distributed on its outer circumference Has T-shaped lugs, one of which is longitudinal the pipe clamp has a slot »

According to a further feature of the invention, it is proposed that the respective approach of the pipe clamp engages behind Legs of the U-profile pieces opposite their other legs to shorten and adjust the length of the U-profile pieces to the web height of the girders «

In a further embodiment of the invention, it is proposed that the carrier be inserted into the grooves to form an additional shield to receive a head piece of a substantially T-shaped profile rod.

According to a further feature of the invention, it is proposed that the lower edge As T-shaped profile rod be box-like Form recording a groove that corresponds in shape and size to the groove of the carrier.

The invention provides a useful, inexpensive and handling technically simple and all the requirements for the practice of the problem let justice to solution of a mast to be fixed, hint or name plate, where only a few simple elements are required to form such a shield _e In addition, easily attach several signs on the same level on the mast without the attachment of one of the signs being interfered with by another «. Likewise, each individual sign can be expanded as required by adding additional signs »

The invention is explained in more detail below with reference to the drawing, for example

Fig # 1 depicts a road sign and its attachment on the mast in a front view, while

Figure 2 shows the same road sign in a side view. the

Fig. 3 also shows the same road sign in a cross section along the line A, B of Fig.2.

The road sign is essentially formed from the carrier 1, which receives a note on one or both sides, has a double-T shape and the flanges of which are provided with hammer-head-like grooves 2 * The carrier 1 holds two in its web on one end face Mounting holes

for the screws k , which simultaneously connect the two U-profile pieces 3 arranged on each side of the girder 1 to the girder 1 3 engage behind one of the T-shaped projections 5a of the pipe clamp 5β with their short legs 3a. By tightening the screws k , the U-shaped profile pieces 3 are braced against each other and establish the clamping connection with the pipe clamp as well as with the shield carrier 1 the first shield is mounted at the point of the pipe clamp 5 at which the T-shaped extension 5a is provided with a slot 5b in the longitudinal direction of the pipe clamp. This slot 5b is so large that when the U-shaped profile pieces 3 are clamped by means of the screws k, the pipe clamp 5 is also clamped on the mast 7. Previously, the pipe clamp 5 was slipped over the mast 7 from above, since the inside diameter of the pipe clamp 5 is slightly larger than the outside diameter of the mast 7 * The pipe clamp 5 is expediently as long as the carrier 1 is high. The length of the U-shaped profile pieces 3, on the other hand, is appropriately adapted to the web height of the carrier 1.

If the street sign is to be provided with an additional sign, as is the case, for example, with the identification of house numbers located in a certain street section, the head piece 6a of an essentially T-shaped profile rod 6 is inserted into the groove 2 of the carrier 1, the The part of the profile rod 6 protruding from the groove forms the additional shield. This additional sign can be fixed in the groove 2 by means known per se, such as clamping bridges or clamping screws in a manner not shown, by clamping them into the groove 2 in front of and behind the profile bar 6 ? chi Id to add, instead of the previously described
