Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for fixing an anti-dazzle blade on a metal safety slide placed on the central reservation separating automobile traffic lanes. It also relates to a new type of anti-dazzle device.
  • the slides are equipped with vertical panels, or blades, anti-glare, regularly spaced, positioned above said slides, transverse to the axis of the tracks, in order to allow motorists traveling on a track not be dazzled by the lights of cars traveling in the opposite direction, on the other side of said slides, the distance separating two consecutive panels being a function of the width of said panels on the one hand and the curvature of the road on the other hand .
  • the anti-glare blades must also be fixed securely to the slides to resist air movement and they must include means for adjusting the inclination so as to counterbalance the possible deformations of the slides and thus allow their correct alignment.
  • the object of the present invention is to remedy this drawback by proposing a device for fixing anti-glare blades on a road safety barrier, easy to install and adjust, and adaptable to all types of slides.
  • a fixing device is essentially characterized in that it comprises a support plate which can be secured to the rear of a metal slide by means of a flange consisting of a metal wire whose ends are butted and which is folded so on the one hand to have a certain transverse and longitudinal elasticity, and on the other hand to be able to marry at a distance the rear contour of the slide by covering the longitudinal edges of said slide above and below said support plate, passing on either side of the latter.
  • the support plate comprises on the one hand, in its upper part, on its edge in contact with the slide, a transverse groove capable of receiving the edge of said slide on the other hand , behind said groove, projecting on either side of the sides of the support plate, two lugs of substantially round section; and on the other hand, in its lower part, on either side of its lateral flanks, projecting elements delimiting vertical grooves.
  • the width of the support plate is slightly greater than the distance separating the two strands facing the flange, so that the latter can grip it tightly, with a spring effect.
  • the support plate is formed of two parts, a plate part comprising the lateral lugs and the means for fixing the blade, and a support part comprising the transverse and vertical grooves, these two parts being secured together. 'to each other reversibly, for example by snap-fastening.
  • the fixing of a device according to the invention on a safety barrier can be carried out in the following manner: the support plate, or the plate secured to its support, is positioned at the rear of the slide, the upper edge of which is engaged in the transverse groove of said support plate, then the flange is positioned on the slide, its upper and lower ends enveloping the longitudinal edges of said slide while resting on the rear of the lugs so as to apply the plate- support against the slide, finally the strands of the flange are separated, so as to allow the pivoting of the plate on the upper edge of the slide to determine its ideal inclination, then they are released and each introduced in a vertical groove, blocking thus the support plate in the chosen position.
  • the blade can then be secured to the plate by appropriate means.
  • Attaching the device according to the invention to a safety barrier can be achieved in another way, by first positioning the flange on the slide, then by adapting the support plate by passing it forcefully between the strands of the flange which move apart under pressure, the ends of the pins being for this purpose bevelled on the side of the face of the support plate disposed opposite the slide.
  • the flange can have different shapes.
  • the present invention also aims to propose an anti-dazzle device making it possible to reduce the cost of equipping a traffic lane while offering the same efficiency as the known devices.
  • the anti-dazzle device which is also the subject of the present invention is essentially characterized in that it comprises a screen, or blade, secured to a base to which it is fixed so as to be, once placed on a slide, positioned in a substantially vertical plane which is not perpendicular to the axis of the traffic lanes but open at a certain angle relative to the perpendicular to said axes, in the direction of vehicles traveling on said lanes.
  • the objective of reducing the cost of equipping a traffic lane by means of an anti-dazzle device according to the invention can be achieved either by using fewer screens, or blades, of width equivalent to that existing devices but more spaced apart, either by keeping equivalent spacing but with screens, or blades, of smaller width, therefore of a lower manufacturing cost.
  • This device comprises a support plate 2 and a flange 3.
  • the flange 3 consists of a folded metal wire 30, the ends 31 and 32 of which are butted and secured to one another by an appropriate means, for example by welding, so as to constitute two strands 33 and 34 facing each other. which are themselves folded, on the one hand at their end portions in order to form hooks 35 and 36 capable of enveloping the outer longitudinal edges respectively top 13 and bottom 14 of the slide 1, and on the other hand in their intermediate part 37 in order to marry the longitudinal groove 12 of the slide 1 at a distance.
  • the support plate 2 made of molded plastic, comprises a substantially horizontal plate part 20 intended to receive an anti-dazzle blade, not shown, which can be joined together by fixing means also not shown, and a support part 21 which is substantially vertical.
  • the support part 21 comprises, in the extension of the plate part 20, on its edge in contact with the slide 1, a transverse groove 22 in which the upper edge 15 of the slide 1 is inserted.
  • each of the lateral flanks of the support part 21 has three elongated protuberances 24 delimiting two vertical grooves 25 of width slightly greater than the diameter of the metal wire 3.
  • the flange 3 keeps the support plate 2 applied against the slide 1 by exerting pressure on the lugs 23, while the transverse groove 22 prevents the vertical sliding of the support plate 2.
  • the inclination of the support plate 2, allowing a substantially vertical positioning of the anti-glare blade, is achieved by introducing the strands 33 and 34, previously spaced laterally, in one or other of the vertical grooves 25, while moving the support plate 2 by pivoting on the one hand from the bottom of the transverse groove 22 on the edge 15 of the slide 1, and on the other hand of the lugs 23 on the flange 3.
  • the attachment of the support plate 2 to the slide 1 can be achieved by forcibly introducing it between the strands 33 and 34 of the flange 3 previously secured to the slide 1, and in order to facilitate this maneuver the lugs 23 have opposite of slide 1 a bevel 26.
  • the support plate 2 can be made, for manufacturing convenience, in two separate parts, a plate 4 (Figure 2a) and a support 5 ( Figure 2b).
  • the plate 4 has a lower part 40 of width less than the internal width of the part upper 50 of the support 5, in order to allow its introduction into this part 50.
  • connection of the plate 4 to the support 5 is carried out on the one hand by the introduction of a transverse wing 41, projecting at the front of the plate 4, in a transverse groove 51 formed opposite the transverse groove 22 at the inside of the support 5, and on the other hand by means of elastic lugs 42, only one of which is visible in the figure, which are arranged, projecting from the outside, on the sides 43 of the lower front part 40 of the plate 4, and which can be snapped into holes 52, only one of which is visible in the figure, formed in the sides 53 of the upper part 50 of the support 5.
  • the attachment of the plate 4 to the support 5 is supplemented by the pressure exerted by the flange 3 against the lugs 23 projecting laterally from the plate 4, this pressure, in addition to maintaining the support plate 2 against the slide 1, allowing the clamping of the support 5 between the plate 4 and the edge 15 of the slide 1.
  • a slide 6 also with two waves 60 and 61 joined by a groove 62, which differs from slide 1 in particular in that its profile is more rounded and in that the groove 62 is less deep than groove 12, so that the bottom of groove 62 and the longitudinal top 63 and bottom edges 64 of the slide are practically in the same vertical plane.
  • the plate 4 is identical, only the support 5 'and the flange 3' are different, the principle of attachment, on the one hand from the plate 4 to the support 5 ', on the other hand from the 'plate 4 and support 5' assembly at the slide 6 being the same as in the previous embodiment: in this embodiment the flange 3 'is rectilinear in its middle part and the support 5' is vertical, with a longitudinal notch 55 'in each of its sides for the passage of the groove 62 of the slide 6, the method of assembling the plate 4 and the support 5 'remaining the same as described above in support of FIG. 2.
  • an anti-dazzle device comprises, like the existing devices, a blade 7 and a base 8.
  • the blade 7 is not perpendicular to the axes X and Y of circulation, but that it makes with the perpendicular to these axes an angle ⁇ which is between 10 and 20 °, this angle being preferably equal at 16 °.
  • the blade 7 consists of a plate 70 provided with vertical reinforcements 71 between which recesses 72 are made, partially closed by inclined flaps 73, making it possible to absorb the threads of the wind without harming the anti-glare function.
  • the base 8 is a plate which can be secured by appropriate means, not shown, to a support, also not shown, suitable for different types of safety barriers, made of metal or concrete.
