Definitions

  • the present invention is related to an information board which is particularly intended to be set up on roads and other places frequented by traffic to provide the road users with information and directions.
  • a large number of traffic signs and direction boards for road users are set up along the roads. These signs and boards have to be set up close to the roads and should be comparatively large, so that the road users can easily perceive the given information. Dueto their position and their size the signs and boards are frequently exposed to heavy strains and applied loads, particularly.in connection with snow-clearance work, especially snow- pioughing. Therefore, it is highly desirable that the signs and boards are made very solid, so that expensive repairs and maintenance can be avoided as much as possible.
  • the main object of the invention is to provide an information board which is more resistant than the signs and boards now in use and which is easy to transport and to set up.
  • an information board particularly for road users, comprising a plane sheet, the front side of which is provided with the information, the sheet having at least one lower horizontal edge which is flanged to form a flange projecting from the back of the sheet substantially perpendicularly to the plane of the sheet; and at least one supporting post to which the plane sheet is attached by fastening means wherein a profiled plate is provided located adjacent the back of the plane sheet and covering substantially the whole back of the plane sheet, the profiled plate having a plurality of ridges, each having a height which is at least equal to the width of the said projecting flange, the profiled plate being squeezed between the back of the plane sheet and the supporting post.
  • the ridges of the profiled plate abut the plane sheet and the lower edge of the profiled plate rests upon the flange of the plane sheet.
  • the ridges of the profiled plate run substantially perpendicularly to the supporting post to which the plane sheet is attached.
  • the plane sheet is rectangular and has also an upper horizontal edge flanged to form a backwards projecting flange, the flanges being provided with the fastening means for attaching the sheet to the supporting post.
  • the profiled plate consists of an aluminium sheet having trapezoidal ridges.
  • the plane sheet carrying the information is associated with a profiled plate covering substantially the whole back of the sheet, a reinforcement and stiffening of the sheet carrying the information is obtained over its whole area.
  • This reinforcement can be provided when the board is set up at the place where the board shall be positioned.
  • a light and cheap standard element is used which only has to be cut to the right size.
  • the increase of cost for the information board will be very moderate.
  • the information board shown in Figures 1 and 2 comprises a plane sheet 10, the front of which is provided with the information to be given.
  • the horizontal edges of the sheet are flanged to form two flanges 10a, 10b projecting from the back of the plane sheet substantially perpendicularly to the plane of the sheet.
  • These flanges are provided partly for stiffening the sheet and partly for attaching brackets 11, 12 for mounting the plane sheet 10 on support posts.
  • the brackets 11,12 each consist of an angular bracket attached to the flanges 10a, 10b by means of rivets 13, 14.
  • Each bracket 11, 12 is associated with a locking strap 15 and 16, respectively.
  • the locking straps are designed to surround a vertical post 17 to which the sheet 10 is to be fastened, as clearly shown in Figure 2.
  • the Figures only show one post 17, but normally two or more posts fixed in the ground are used for larger information boards.
  • a profiled plate 18, is interposed between the plane sheet 10 and the post 17.
  • This plate has substantially the same size as the plane sheet 10 and consists of an aluminium sheet having a number of parallel trapezoidal ridges 19with plane top surfaces.
  • the plane top surfaces of the ridges abutthe back of the sheet 10.
  • the ridges each have a height which is equal to or slightly largerthan the width of the flanges 10a, 10b, so that the profiled plate is rigidly braced between the sheet 10 and the post or posts 17, the profiled plate having its lower edge resting on the lower flange 10a of the plane sheet.
  • the post or posts 17 will press the profiled plate 18 against the sheet 10, so that the profiled plate will support and stiffen the information sheet 10 over its whole area.
  • the post or posts 17 are first erected by digging a hole in the ground for one end of each post and casting the end, if necessary.
  • the information sheet is then loosely attached to the posts, and after that the profiled plate, the size of which has been adjusted to correspond to the size of the information sheet in advance, is pushed into the space between the information sheet and the post or posts.
  • the lower edge of the profiled plate slides on the lower flange of the information sheet.
  • the mounting of the information sheet is then finally completed by tightening the locking straps, and at the same time the profiled plate is squeezed between the sheet and the post or posts.
  • the information sheet for example, must not necessarily be rectangular, as shown in the Figures, but can have any shape. However, the rectangular shape is normally best. Furthermore, the sheet can have only a lower horizontal flange.
  • the ridges of the profiled plates can have any other shape than the illustrated trapezoidal shape, for example be waved. To give the best effect, the ridges of the profiled plate should run substantially perpendicularly to the carrying posts or bars, but the posts or bars may alternatively be positioned horizontally.
  • the information sheet and the profiled plate can also be attached in many different ways.

Abstract

Un panneau indicateur, destiné notamment aux utilisateurs de la route, comprend une feuille plane (10), dont le côté avant présente les indications nécessaires, et au moins un poteau de support (7) auquel est fixée la feuille (10). Cette dernière possède un bord horizontal inférieur qui est façonné de manière à former un rebord (10a) en saillie sur la partie arrière de la feuille sensiblement perpendiculairement au plan de celle-ci. Le dos de la feuille plane (10) est pourvu d'une plaque profilée (18) reposant sur le rebord en saillie (10a) et recouvrant sensiblement la totalité du dos de la feuille, de manière à renforcer et à rigidifier la feuille indicatrice.
