Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a section member adapted to operate as a structural stiffening element for signs, in particular traffic signs, and as a restraining element for the bolts anchoring said signs to their supporting posts.
  • vehicle traffic is advanta­geously controlled by suitable traffic signs, which are arranged either vertically or horizontally.
  • vertical traffic signs have suitably designed shapes and size and bear suitable signals, said signs being affixed at the top of post members.
  • Conventional traffic signs are made of a sheet metal material (for example iron or aluminium sheet metal), which is stiffened by an edge made by perimetrical bending the sheet metal material, accord­ing to known processing methods.
  • a sheet metal material for example iron or aluminium sheet metal
  • an extruded section member made of an aluminium alloy or of anodized aluminium, adapted to improve the stiffness characteristics of the sign itself.
  • This separate processing step requires the use of complex and expensive systems or machines, such as, for example, electrical spot welding appara­tus and, moreover, requires a lot of time to be carried out.
  • the task of the present in­vention is to overcome the above mentioned drawbacks, by providing an improved structural section member for making the frames of traffic signs, which is adapted to also operate as a stiffening and restrain­ ing element for the coupling means associated with said traffic signs.
  • a main object of the present invention is to provide an improved section member which affords the possibility of easily and quickly coupling the traffic sign to its supporting post.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide an improved section member which is very simple construction wise and very reliable in operation.
  • an improved section member for making the frames of traffic signs characterized in that it essentially comprises a first seat, adapted to be perimetrically engaged with the sheet metal ma­terial forming said traffic sign, and a second seat, adapted to slidingly restrain the head of a screw pro­vided for engaging with an nut.
  • the improved section member, for making the frames of traffic signs according to the invention has been indicated overally at the reference number 1 and is made, at least preferably, or an aluminium alloy, or anodized aluminium, and is pro­ vided with a downwardly bent leg 2 defining a U-shaped seat indicated at 3; this seat 3, on the other hand, can also be defined by two parallel legs cantilever extending from the main body of the section member.
  • the section member moreover, is provided with a C-or channel shaped seat 4, the opening 5 of which extends perpendicularly with respect to the open­ing of the above mentioned U-shaped seat.
  • the U-shaped seat is so designed and sized as to receive, with a suitable restraining force, the edge portion of a traffic sign 6.
  • the mentioned channel seat 4 is so designed and arranged as to receive and slidingly restrain the head 7 of a screw, the stem 8 of which projects from the opening 5.
  • the head portion of said screw may advantageously have a rectangular shape, thereby it can be engaged through the mentioned opening so as to be restrained in said channel seat by rotating said screw through 90°.
  • the section member 1 is a single piece so bent and shaped as to be firmly locked about the overall perimeter of the traffic sign, which, accordingly, can not disengage from the seat 3.
  • the channel seat 4 there are slidingly engaged the head portions of two or more screw pairs 8, for coupling the section member, and hence the traffic sign, on the supporting post 9 which, in turn, is suitably anchored to the ground.
  • brackets 10 which encompass the supporting post and are locked, on screw pairs, by means of correspond­ing nuts 11.
