Definitions

  • beacons On streets and squares, various types of beacons as well as information signs, prohibition signs, barriers and the like must be temporarily set up again and again.
  • beacons with or without additional traffic signs or lamps are placed in large numbers in close succession in order to create a route that is as visually complete as possible on the route sections deviating from the usual traffic route.
  • These beacons are usually attached to beacon stands, which are also called footplate stands, and which have a footplate, a beacon tube and a holder between the beacon tube and the footplate.
  • a beacon sheet already provided with a corresponding foot or a beacon body in the form of a hollow body is used at the location of the beacon with a separate beacon tube and is connected to the footplate by means of a holder matched to it. All of these different embodiments are collectively referred to below as a plug-in part.
  • the associated footplate has a receiving opening matched to the plug-in part, into which the plug-in part is inserted.
  • beacon stands have various disadvantages.
  • the most serious disadvantages are that on the one hand the base plate of such a beacon stand rears up or rises when driving around and causes severe damage to the vehicle traveling over it, which often also leads to accidents, and on the other hand the beacon tubes are torn out and like projectiles can be flung away.
  • These serious disadvantages are largely avoided in a known beacon stand (DE-OS 29 49 541) in that there is a special design of the holder between the footplate and the plug-in part, which has two tongue and groove connections. With this beacon stand, when starting up with approach speeds of up to approx.
  • the springs are partially sheared off, the plug-in part being flipped over without the base plate being raised and without the plug-in part being bent or kinked or even torn out of the base plate and flung away.
  • the tongues of the tongue and groove connections of this holder are completely torn off and the plug-in part is separated from the footplate and this plug-in part is then flung away.
  • an additional securing device which has an angled leaf spring attached to the footplate, one leg of which protrudes upwards in the line of alignment of the insert part into the area of the holder and there is provided with an elongated through hole.
  • the foot of the plug-in part and, if present, also a plug-in shoe also has a through-hole in the line of alignment of this through-hole of the leaf spring, into which a pin is inserted, which thus also engages in the through-hole of the leaf spring. If such a plug-in part is bent when starting, the leaf spring reliably holds the plug-in part in place via the pin.
  • this securing device has the disadvantages that disassembly of the plug-in part when collecting the beacon stand is very difficult and is only possible with tools, and that when the beacon tube is flipped over due to a collision despite the manufacture of the spring steel leaf spring, its leg is permanently deformed with the through hole .
  • the bent part must first be straightened before the footplate is reused, which is only insufficient due to the fact that it is made from spring steel without tools.
  • the permanent deformations of the leaf springs make it difficult or even impossible to insert a new insert.
  • the invention specified in claim 1 has for its object to provide a beacon stand, in which on the one hand the plug-in part is relatively easily and simply flipped in rear-end collisions with lower drive-up speeds and in which on the other hand the plug-in part is prevented from being torn out of the footplate in the case of rear-end collisions with higher drive-up speeds .
  • the holder between the plug-in part and the base plate has two tongue and groove connections, a good and secure mounting of the plug-in part is ensured in the base plate.
  • the springs of the bracket are partially sheared off.
  • the part of the two springs that is not turned off forms a kind of hinge pin that remains in the grooves.
  • the plug-in part folds over like a pin joint, but remains connected to the footplate via the pins located in the grooves.
  • the shaft part inserted into the insert shoe of the holder is longer than the height of the insert shoe and a transverse blind hole or through hole is present in the section protruding from the insert shoe, into which a locking pin is inserted, which is turned by rotating the insert part the insert shoe can be pivoted into different pivot positions, and in that there is first a horizontal recess and then a perpendicular recess on the footplate or on a part connected to it, the locking pin on the insert part can be inserted into the footplate after insertion of the insert part be brought into such a pivoting position that it is in the line of alignment of the perpendicular recess.
  • the insert part is raised slightly with the insert shoe. This slight vertical movement of the plug-in part is sufficient to lift the locking pin out of the horizontal recess into the vertical recess.
  • the locking pin can move freely upwards until it rests on the upper end face. The interaction of the locking pin with the perpendicular recess prevents the plug-in part from being separated from the base plate and being flung away even when the springs of the holder are completely sheared off.
  • the insert part can be rotated by a pure torque in the insert shoe, so that its locking pin is pivoted from the release position into the securing position below the perpendicular second recess, but that when a horizontal force or force component acts on the insert part, the frictional force between the shaft part and the insert shoe is increased so much that even in the event of a force attack outside of the vertical axis of the plug-in part, this is not rotated and the locking pin is thus reliably raised into the perpendicular second recess.
  • the relevant parts for guiding and holding the plug-in part and the parts of the retaining device on the base plate have a relatively high strength and dimensional accuracy and the other part of the base plate made of a relatively cheap material can exist so that the total cost of the beacon stand can be kept relatively low.
  • the shaping of the base plate or the insert is made considerably easier and thus also reduces the cost of manufacture.
  • the plug-in part only has to be rotated until the locking pin bears against the swivel stop in order to ensure that the locking pin assumes its correct locking position in the line of alignment of the perpendicularly extending recess. This avoids the fact that the correct pivoting position of the plug-in part depends on the attention and reliability of the operator who inserts the plug-in part into the base plate and rotates it.
  • the locking device prevents involuntary pivoting of the insert part out of its operating position.
  • An embodiment of the beacon stand according to claim 6 ensures that, on the one hand, when the insert part is bypassed as a result of the greater forces which occur, the securing pin is reliably raised past the constriction into the perpendicular second recess, but on the other hand when the beacon stand is moved and it is to be touched and lifted on the plug-in part, the locking pin gets stuck at the narrow point and prevents it from being pulled into the perpendicular recess. This also prevents the tongues of the tongue and groove connection from being partially lifted out of the grooves, which may be overlooked when the beacon stand is switched off at its new installation location, so that the holder is not returned to its correct operating position.
  • the beacon stand 20 has a base plate 21 and a plug-in part 22, which are detachably connected to one another by means of a holder 23.
  • the base plate 21 has the shape of a flat cuboid, the upper edges of which are chamfered. Along its longitudinal center line, the base plate 21 has a continuous channel 24, into which the insert part 22 can at least partially lie when it is turned over in a rear-end collision.
  • the base plate 21 is predominantly made from recycled plastic waste, a so-called recycling material, as a molded part.
  • An insert 25 is arranged in the base plate 21, which will be explained in more detail later with reference to FIGS. 7 ... 10.
  • the insert 25 is a light metal casting, which is molded into the base plate 21 during the production thereof, so that the insert 25 and the plastic compression molding surrounding it form a unit.
  • the insertion part 22 has a beacon body 26 and a shaft part 27 formed thereon (FIGS. 4 and 5).
  • the beacon body 26 is designed as a hollow body. Its cross section has a lanceolate outline. A pair of rim beads are formed along its two narrow edges.
  • the hollow body is manufactured using conventional plastic blowing technology.
  • a transition part 28 is formed, which is also hollow. It connects the lancet-shaped beacon body 26 to the circular cylindrical shaft part 27.
  • the metal tube 29 is dimensioned so long that it reaches at least the usual height of the bumpers on passenger cars when the beacon body 26 is vertical. In the event of a rear-end collision, it absorbs the forces transmitted from the abutting bumper to the beacon body 26 and forwards them to the holder 23. It thus prevents the hollow body of the beacon body 26 from being subjected to greater loads and thereby being broken or torn, and from the resulting one-part parts being thrown away.
  • the holder 23 between the insert part 22 and the base plate 21 has two tongue and groove connections 31 (FIGS. 11 and 12), which are arranged at least approximately diametrically with respect to the shaft part 27. You are in right angle to the longitudinal extent of the base plate 21 and the groove 24 aligned.
  • the two grooves 32 are integrally formed on the insert 25 (FIGS. 9 and 10).
  • the two springs 33 are formed on an insert shoe 34 (Fig. 4 ... 6). Both the grooves 32 and the springs 33 have a dovetail shape.
  • the insert shoe 34 has a cuboid shape.
  • the insert shoe 34 has in its center a circular cylindrical through hole 37 (FIG. 4), the inside diameter of which is matched to the outside diameter of the shaft part 27 in such a way that a sliding fit or a floating seat fit is provided between these two parts.
  • This means that the insertion shoe 34 can be rotated on the shaft part 27 if a certain force is used to overcome the frictional force between these two parts.
  • the through-hole 37 in the insert shoe 34 is not cylindrical in the strict sense of the word, but rather slightly conical in consideration of the formability. In this case, it is expedient to design the shaft part 27 in the same way to be slightly conical.
  • the transition part 28 of the beacon body 26 does not merge smoothly into the shaft part 27.
  • a circumferential frustoconical shoulder 38 is formed, which interacts with a frustoconical bevel 39, which is provided at the upper edge of the through hole 37 of the insert shoe 34.
  • the shoulder 38 together with the chamfer 39, forms a longitudinal stop 40 which limits the insertion path of the shaft part 27 in the insertion shoe 34 to a certain value.
  • the longitudinal stop 40 has a distance from the end of the shaft part 27 which is greater than the height "H" of the insert shoe 34.
  • a through hole 41 is provided on the shaft part 27 at a distance from the shoulder 38 that is at least equal to the height “H” of the insert shoe 34. It is at least approximately diametrically aligned on the shaft part 27.
  • a locking pin 42 is inserted in the form of a spring steel pin. This locking pin 42 has a length which depends on the design and dimensions of the insert 25, as will be explained below, and which is in any case greater than the outer distance of the outer surfaces of the two springs 33 on the insert shoe 34.
  • the locking pin 42 forms the part of a retaining lock 43 connected to the plug-in part 22.
  • the insert shoe 34 On the underside of the insert shoe 34 there is a latching device 44 which acts between the insert shoe 34 and the locking pin 42.
  • the insert shoe 34 has on its underside in the pivoting range of the locking pin 42 two diametrically located ramp surfaces 45. These extend in the circumferential direction over a little less than a quarter arc. From the flat underside of the insert shoe 34, which is decisive for the height "H", the two ramp surfaces 45 rise to a maximum value which is within the elastic deformability of the insert shoe 34 and the shaft part 27, including the longitudinal stop 40.
  • each of the ramp surfaces 45 drops relatively steeply to an intermediate stage, the height of which lies between the maximum value and the minimum value with respect to the flat underside of the insert shoe 34 is.
  • the insert 25 is explained in more detail below with reference to FIGS. 7 ... 10.
  • the insert 25 has a U-shaped elevation when viewed in the longitudinal direction of the foot plate 21. Its two wall parts 47 and 48 have a clear distance from one another which is at least approximately equal to the width "B" of the insert shoe 34.
  • the two wall parts 47 and 48 are flat on their inner side facing each other. In the longitudinal center of the two wall parts 47 and 48, one of the two grooves 32 is formed, which together with the springs 33 on the insertion shoe 34 together form the holder 23.
  • the two wall parts 47 and 48 form a kind of swivel guide for the insertion shoe 34 and thus for the entire insertion part 22 in the event that the insertion part 22 is started and the springs 33 are partially sheared off, so that the insertion part 22 folds over.
  • the two wall parts 47 and 48 are rigidly connected to one another via a base 49.
  • a perpendicular bulge 50 is formed in the area of the grooves 32 on the outside of the wall parts 47 and 48.
  • a horizontally extending stiffening rib 51 is also formed halfway up the wall parts, and an outwardly projecting edge bead 52 is formed on the upper edge of the wall parts in the central region thereof.
  • the parts of the holding device 43 connected to the insert 25 are formed by a horizontally running first recess 53 and by a vertically running second recess 54 (FIG. 8), which are arranged in a point-symmetrical arrangement in each of the two wall parts 47 and 48 with respect to the vertical axis of the insert 25 are present (Fig. 10).
  • the horizontally running first recess 53 has a height and a clear height that is matched to the movement space of the locking pin 42.
  • the plan projection of the recess 53 is also matched to the movement space of the locking pin 42 in such a way that its perpendicular boundary walls are located outside the movement space of the locking pin 42.
  • This movement space of the locking pin 42 is to be understood as the space which the locking pin 42 travels when, after the insertion of the insertion shoe 34 into the insert 25, by a rotary movement of the insertion part 22 from an at least approximately parallel orientation to the wall parts 47 and 48 in FIG an at least approximately perpendicular pivot position of the locking pin 42 is pivoted.
  • the first-mentioned pivot position of the insert part 22 can also be referred to as the release position of the locking pin 42 and the latter pivot position as the locking position of the locking pin 42.
  • the perpendicular second recess 54 adjoins the horizontally extending first recess 53 in the plan area which the locking pin 42 assumes in its locking position.
  • the plan projection of the recess 54 is matched to this plan projection of the locking pin 42.
  • the recess 54 has an upper end surface 55 which is located at a certain distance above the horizontal pivot plane of the locking pin 42. The dimension of this distance depends on the distance the locking pin 42 travels when the plug-in part 22 is at least approximately completely flipped over after the springs 33 have been sheared off.
  • the horizontally running first recess 53 and the lower part of the vertically running second recess 54 are located in the same height range as the bottom 49 of the insert 25. That's why the floor 49 is completely recessed in the plan area of the two recesses 53 and 54.
  • the molded parts for forming the recesses 53 and 54 can be firmly connected to the molded parts for the outside of the insert 25, so that movable molded parts for the recesses 53 and 54 are avoided.
  • a small bulge-shaped projection 56 is formed at least on one side wall 56 of the recess 54, which reduces the clear width of the vertically extending recess 54 to a value that is within the frame the elastic resilience of the locking pin 42 designed as a locking pin is smaller than the nominal diameter of the locking pin 42.
  • the locking pin 42 remains on the projection 57 when a not too great force is exerted on the plug-in part 22 in the vertical direction upwards.
  • the securing pin 42 is elastically compressed by the abutment on the projection 57 and is pressed upward past the projection 57 so that it can fully enter the perpendicularly extending recess 54, until it rests on its upper bearing surface 55.
  • FIG. 11 and 12 illustrate the orientation in relation to the insert 25 and thus in relation to the footplate 21, the insert part 22 together with the insert shoe 34 is inserted into the insert 25 (FIG. 11) and how it is twisted of the plug-in part 22 in its operating position the locking pin 42 connected to it is pivoted into its locking position.
  • the side surface 58 of the second recess 54 located in the horizontal line of alignment of the first recess 53 forms a pivot stop for the locking pin 42, which pivots of the plug-in part 22 is limited in the position in which the securing pin 42 is located in the vertical alignment line of the perpendicularly extending recess 54.
