A guard fence according to the invention includes profiled iron posts (1) supporting a spacer (2) which in turn supports a horizontal rail (3) composed of round timber sections which are preslit and reinforced with embedded metal bars which strengthen the wood and bind the elements. <IMAGE>

Description

La présente invention a pour objet des glissières de sécurité en bois ronds destinées à être placées dans tous les lieux où les véhicules sont susceptibles de s'écarter volontairement ou accidentellement des voies qui leur sont affectées, notamment le long des routes et autoroutes ou en lisière des parcs de stationnement. Le secteur technique est donc celui de la construction des dispositifs de sécurité routiers.The present invention relates to round wooden safety barriers intended to be placed in all places where vehicles are likely to deviate voluntarily or accidentally from the lanes assigned to them, in particular along roads and motorways or at the edge parking lots. The technical sector is therefore that of the construction of road safety devices.

On connaît le système mixte ayant fait l'objet d'un brevet d'invention publié sous le N° 2 663 968.We know of the mixed system which was the subject of a patent for invention published under No. 2,663,968.

La présente invention a pour objet la réalisation de lisses en bois rond armées de fer encastré alliant avantageusement les propriétés complémentaires de ces deux matériaux, d'écarteurs en bois cerclé de fer ainsi qu'un procédé de montage et de fabrication qui augmente la fiabilité des systèmes connus et diminue sensiblement le coût de fabrication, de transport et de mise en oeuvre. Il s'adapte avantageusement à toutes les situations de montage : courbes, haut de côte, fin de glissière.The present invention relates to the production of round wooden beams armed with embedded iron, advantageously combining the complementary properties of these two materials, wooden spacer rings surrounded by iron, as well as a mounting and manufacturing process which increases the reliability of the known systems and significantly reduces the cost of manufacture, transport and implementation. It adapts advantageously to all mounting situations: curves, top of hill, end of slide.

Les problèmes à résoudre sont les suivants :

  • 1. Le bois est un matériau naturel hétérogène susceptible de présenter des points de moindre résistance et sous le choc d'un véhicule il plie peu, mais peut casser. Par contre le coefficient de frottement fer bois est très important et c'est une propriété qu'on mettra à profit pour freiner les véhicules.
  • 2. Les supports métalliques sont inesthétiques.
  • 3. Les supports métalliques doivent être écartés de la lisse pour éviter le choc avec le véhicule. Un écarteur est donc nécessaire.
  • 4. Les procédés connus sont difficiles à monter et font appel à de multiples pièces. Il est donc nécessaire de simplifier et de rendre le montage polyvalent.
The issues to be resolved are:
  • 1. Wood is a heterogeneous natural material likely to present points of less resistance and under the shock of a vehicle it bends little, but can break. By cons the coefficient of iron wood friction is very important and it is a property that we will take advantage to brake vehicles.
  • 2. The metal supports are unsightly.
  • 3. The metal supports must be moved away from the arm to avoid impact with the vehicle. A retractor is therefore necessary.
  • 4. The known methods are difficult to assemble and use multiple parts. It is therefore necessary to simplify and make the assembly versatile.

Pour résoudre ces problèmes, les solutions suivantes ont été trouvées :

  • 1. Les lisses sont renforcées du côté opposé à la route par un fer profilé encastré dans la lisse bois. Les ailes du profilé sont logées dans deux fentes parallèles à l'axe de la lisse et sont ainsi invisibles.
  • 2. L'écarteur est constitué d'un bois rond placé verticalement entre le support métallique et la lisse. De cette façon le support est caché mais l'écarteur s'arrête à 5 cm du sol pour éviter tout risque de pourriture. Pour les mêmes raisons l'extrémité supérieure est coupée en biais.
  • 3. Pour éviter de gêner le glissement du véhicule le long de la glissière, l'écarteur peut tourner autour de l'axe du boulon de fixation. La structure est renforcée par un cerclage métallique galvanisé pour éviter tout risque de projection.
  • 4. Pour faciliter le montage les éclisses métalliques de fixation opposées à la route sont solidaires du fer profilé encastré et montés en usine. Toutes les éclisses sont munies de trous oblongs permettant le montage dans toutes les situations. Selon la nécessité les éléments de la lisse horizontale seront de deux ou quatre mètres. Ils peuvent aussi être montés sur des supports existants en remplacement des glissières de sécurité métalliques, sans changer le support et éventuellement sans changer l'écarteur métallique existant.
To solve these problems, the following solutions have been found:
  • 1. The beams are reinforced on the side opposite the road by a profiled iron embedded in the wood beam. The wings of the profile are housed in two slots parallel to the axis of the heald and are thus invisible.
  • 2. The spacer consists of a round wood placed vertically between the metal support and the rail. This way the support is hidden but the spacer stops 5 cm from the ground to avoid any risk of rot. For the same reasons the upper end is cut at an angle.
  • 3. To avoid interfering with the sliding of the vehicle along the slide, the spacer can rotate around the axis of the fixing bolt. The structure is reinforced by a galvanized metal band to avoid any risk of projection.
  • 4. To facilitate mounting, the metal fastening plates opposite the road are integral with the recessed profile iron and factory fitted. All fishplates are provided with oblong holes allowing mounting in all situations. Depending on the need, the elements of the horizontal rail will be two or four meters. They can also be mounted on existing supports to replace the metal safety barriers, without changing the support and possibly without changing the existing metal spacer.

Le dispositif de sécurité selon l'invention peut être mis en place avec les matériels disponibles dans les entreprises posant habituellement des glissières métalliques, sans formation particulière du personnel.The safety device according to the invention can be put in place with the materials available in companies usually installing metal slides, without special training of the personnel.
