  • US-A-3157267 (ASBURY) describes apparatuses for picking up signaling beacons which comprise a conveyor belt coupled behind a vehicle and a pulley formed of permanent magnets which is situated at the lower end of the conveyor.
  • Patent US-A-3268052 (ASBURY) describes improvements to the devices described in the previous patent.
  • the state of the art known to date comprises, on the one hand, machines making it possible to automatically pick up signaling beacons having a metal base and, on the other hand, machines for automatically placing conical and hollow signaling beacons which have several vertical stores open at their two ends which are supported by arms which connect them to a central vertical shaft which is mounted on a self-propelled or towed vehicle and which also comprises means for driving this shaft rotating step by step, each step corresponding to the angular difference between two successive magazines.
  • the objective of the present invention is to provide self-propelled or towed machines making it possible to automatically pick up conical and hollow road signaling beacons even if these have been overturned and also allowing them to be placed mechanically in line without any handling.
  • a machine comprises several vertical cylindrical magazines open at their two ends and which are supported by horizontal arms which connect them to a central vertical shaft which is mounted on a vehicle, self-propelled or towed, which shaft is driven in rotation not step by step, each step corresponding to the angular difference between two successive magazines and said machine further comprises a device for picking up beacons which comprises a chain conveyor which is located on one side of said vehicle and which carries fingers articulated on an endless chain which penetrates into each conical beacon and said collecting device further comprises a member for aligning and reversing the conical beacons which is located in front of the lower end of said conveyor and said machine further comprises , one or two devices for mechanical installation of beacons, each of which has a cylindrical chute inclined outwards and downwards above which a magazine being unloaded is positioned coaxially.
  • the invention results in the installation, collection and intermediate storage of conical beacons by entirely mechanical means.
  • a machine according to the invention driven by a single man is capable of picking up cones placed in line, of storing them and of placing them again online, without any manual intervention other than driving and controlling the vehicle.
  • a machine When picking up, a machine according to the invention can pick up beacons which have been slightly displaced from their original alignment because it comprises a fork at the front which brings the beacons in line with the axis of the pickup device.
  • a machine according to the invention has self-closing contacts which warn the driver when a magazine being filled is full or when a magazine being dispensed is empty, so that operations can be controlled by one man .
  • a machine according to the invention increases the safety of work on roads and motorways because it eliminates operators exposed to accidents.
  • the vehicle can constantly circulate inside the road strip which is marked in the direction from which the cars come and it is therefore perfectly signaled to them.
  • a vehicle according to the invention When it is not in the pickup or installation phase, a vehicle according to the invention has a normal size and no tool protrudes outside of this template. It can therefore circulate freely without danger.
  • a machine according to the invention comprises a microswitch which detects the contact of the cones during the collection phase, so that the collection conveyor is started automatically only when it has to come into action, which saves energy and facilitates the driving of the machine by the driver who does not have to constantly monitor the presence or absence of cones.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show a machine for distributing online, for storing and for picking up conical bollards 1 which are used on roads or motorways to signal and mark works or obstacles.
  • the figures represent conical beacons of a common type comprising a rectangular base 1a and a hollow conical tip 1b. It is specified that a machine according to the invention can be used for any hollow conical beacon which will also be designated by the name of cones.
  • Figures 1 and 2 show a self-propelled machine in which the bodies for picking up and distributing the cones are mounted on the platform of a self-propelled vehicle 2. Alternatively, they could also be mounted on a trailer coupled behind a tractor.
  • a machine according to the invention can be transformed to pass from a traffic position on the road to a working position.
  • the road traffic position it conforms to the road gauge and does not include any tools outside this gauge.
  • the pickup position of the cones the pickup device is located on one side of the vehicle, so that the vehicle can travel along a line of cones by picking them up.
  • the cone pickup device can be placed either to the right or to the left of the vehicle, so that the latter can pick up the cones, in any case, by moving against the flow of traffic. and thus being protected by a line of cones in place which signal it to oncoming vehicles.
  • the only part outside the vehicle gauge is a flexible skirt which guides the cones coming out of a chute so that they arise vertically along a line along the path of the vehicle.
  • a vehicle according to the invention is equipped with two cone distribution chutes located one to the left and the other to the right of the vehicle.
  • the platform of the vehicle au of the trailer carries a cone storage magazine which is composed of vertical cylinders 3, open at their two ends. These cones are stored vertically in these cylinders, in their usual position, that is to say the base located downwards and they are nested one inside the other.
  • the inside diameter of the cylinders is slightly greater than the circle circumscribed at the base of the cones so that they can descend by gravity inside the cylinders while being guided by them.
  • the cylinders 3 are distributed around a central vertical shaft 4.
  • the upper end of the shaft 4 is carried by a bearing, for example by a ball bearing 5 fixed to the troit of the body 6 of the vehicle.
  • the lower end of the shaft 4 carries a drive plate 7 which rests on a plate 8 of a friction clutch.
  • the plate 8 is driven by a shaft 9 which is itself driven by a transmission 10 from a motor not shown.
  • the details of embodiment of the shaft 4 are shown in FIGS. 3 and 4.
  • the shaft 4 carries pairs of horizontal arms 11 located substantially at mid-height. These arms are fixed for example on a sleeve 12 wedged on the shaft.
  • the fixing is reinforced by a gusset or a strut 13.
  • the arms 11 have a radial direction. At their free end, they carry a cylindrical cup 14. Each cylinder 3 is equipped with two diametrically opposed pins 15 which are placed in the cups 14 with a pair of arms.
  • the shaft 4 carries, in addition, in its upper part, radial arms 16 which are articulated on chaps 17 with a horizontal axis and which are equipped with an elastic device 18, for example a spring which recalls them towards the low.
  • Each arm 16 bears on the top of a cylinder 3 and exerts on it a downward thrust which maintains the pins 15 in the bowls 14.
  • the cylinders 3 are easily removable. It is enough to slightly raise the arm 16 and slightly lift the cylinder to release the pins 15 from the bowls. This allows for example to leave the vehicle a cylinder full of cones to replace it with an empty cylinder or vice versa.
  • a vehicle according to the invention can comprise for example twelve cylindrical magazines 3 distributed inside a cylindrical volume of 2.40 meters in diameter. Each cylinder has for example a height a of 2 meters and can contain twenty five cones.
  • the motor driving the shaft 4 rotates it step by step, each step corresponding to the angular difference between two successive magazines, so that after each step, each cylinder occupies exactly the place where the cylinder which was previously located precedes it. It can therefore be seen that the shaft 4 and the cylinders 3 form a transfer carousel making it possible to interchange the cylindrical magazines 3.
  • FIG. 1 For clarity of the drawings, only a few cylindrical magazines have been shown in FIG. 1 and only one in FIGS. 2 and 4.

  • the rotation of the arms makes it possible to lift the collection device and at the same time to retract it inside the template for road travel. Conversely, it allows the pick-up device to be removed and lowered so that the device's arm is placed slightly above ground level during the cone picking phase.
  • the length of the arms 20 is slightly greater than the half-width of the vehicle and, in this case, the rotation of the arms is sufficient to move the pickup device 19 from one side to the other of the vehicle.
  • the arms 20 are shorter and, in this case, they are mounted on a carriage 21 which can move on a transverse raceway 22.
  • the collecting device 19 comprises a conveyor 25 which is composed of an endless chain 26 passing over two toothed wheels 27 and 28 one of which is driving, for example the lower wheel 28.
