Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a mobile traffic barrier, adapted to manage the vehicular traffic and particularly the access to limited traffic areas, as specified in the preamble of claim 1.
  • a mobile traffic barrier is known eg from US-A-4 658 543 .
  • a number of traffic barriers are known, generally comprising a moving element, that can be positioned in at least two positions to open or close the barrier itself.
  • the moving element can slide perpendicularly to the road, being associated to a fixed base element comprising a linear guide, or swing around a vertical axis of rotation.
  • US-A-4 658 543 discloses a mobile traffic barrier comprising a moving elongate element for being adapted to realize an obstacle to vehicles, said moving element comprising a ground rest to stop its swinging movement around a vertical axis of a base element, said moving element being also connected to said base element through means comprising a hinge with horizontal axis, allowing said moving element to tilt on a vertical plane.
  • the moving element is an element for street furniture, which are very heavy.
  • the moving element is often an element for street furniture, such a seat or a flower-holder.
  • the considerable weight of these elements makes nearly indispensable to provide a ground rest, e.g. a ground wheel, at the end of the moving element.
  • a known type of motorized mobile traffic barrier for example, essentially comprise a moving element swinging on a horizontal plane, having one end pivoted to a vertical axis and the other end provided with a ground wheel, driven by an electric motor housed in the moving element itself.
  • barriers are not suited for roads with a roadbed that is not plane, but has some gradient, waving or bumps. As the moving element is resting on the ground, in fact, these may generate rather high stress on the pin of rotation or linear guide, or even stop the movement of the barrier.
  • Another way to avoid the inconvenient could be to provide a rail-guide buried in the roadbed for the moving element, but such a solution is clearly very expensive and does not allow to move the barrier from one place to another according to the needs.
  • the aim of the invention is to eliminate this and others disadvantages, realizing a traffic barrier adapted to compensate bumps and/or depressions of the roadbed, thus adapted to use on roads having a non-plane roadbed, without any inconvenience.
  • the aim of the invention is also to realize a road barrier that is easy to install, without breaking the roadbed, adapted to be moved and positioned according to needs.
  • Another aim is to realize a barrier that can be easily placed in historical centres or tourist resorts, with a good visual impact.
  • the base element is conveniently substantially cylindrical or polygonal, said vertical axis passing at the center of the base element itself; the moving element is conveniently a main longitudinally extending element, for being adapted to realize an unsurmountable obstacle to vehicles.
  • a first general embodiment of the invention refers to a manual barrier, comprising a fixed base element provided with a pin, and a moving element that comprise an arm with one end pivotally connected to said pin and the opposite end connected to the moving element by a hinge with horizontal axis.
  • a second general embodiment of the invention refers to a motorized mobile traffic barrier wherein the ground rest is mobile and connected to motor means, and:
  • the main advantage of the invention is that the swinging element can freely tilt on a vertical plane, following the profile of the roadbed. Therefore, the barrier can be used on any road even in case of considerable roughness of the roadbed, or when cross-section of the road is convex or concave for draining the rain.
  • Another advantage is that all the control- and power electric connections of motorized barriers can be housed in the base element, that results in easier realization and on-site installation.
  • Yet another advantage is that the invention allows to realize a road barrier aesthetically pleasant, suited for historical and tourist resorts.
  • Fig. 1 is a schematical top view of a manual barrier according to the invention.
  • Fig. 2 is a front view of the barrier of Fig. 1 .
  • Fig. 3 is a top view of a barrier similar to that of Fig. 1 , further comprising a seat.
  • Fig. 4 is a lateral view of a barrier similar to that of Fig. 1 , but comprising two moving elements connected to a single fixed element.
  • Fig. 5 is a view of a motorized road barrier according to the invention, where thicker lines show the main internal mechanism.
  • Fig. 6 and Fig. 7 are enlargements of some particulars of Fig. 5 .
  • Fig 8a and Fig. 8b show the functioning of a position sensor for detecting the end of the stroke, that is provided in a preferred embodiment of the invention.
  • Fig. 9 is a top view of the barrier of Fig. 5 in closed and open position, respectively with thick lines and thin lines.
  • Fig. 10 is a perspective view of the barrier of Fig. 5 , where the cover of the base element is removed to show the motor and other internal components.
  • the traffic barrier essentially comprise a base element 101 and a moving element 102, pivotally connected to the base element 101 by means of a hinge 103.
  • Said hinge 103 allows the moving element 102 to swing along a substantially arc-shaped trajectory T.
  • Both elements 101 and 102 are conveniently elements for urban decoration such as flower-holders, seats or others, made of wood or concrete.
  • the moving element 102 comprise a ground rest, preferably obtained with pivoting wheels 104, and is connected to the fixed element 101 by means of a hinge 105 with a substantially horizontal axis, that allows the moving element 102 to tilt on a vertical plane, following the profile of the roadbed.
  • the upper face of the base element 101 comprise a pin 106; the moving element 102 is connected to the base element 101 with an arm 107, having one end fitted with a collar 108 adapted to be freely inserted on said pin 106.
  • the opposite end of the arm 107 is connected to the moving element 102 by said hinge 105.
  • the moving element 102 comprise a support 109, for example a tubular made of stainless steel; two drilled plates 110 are fixed to said support 109, and the end of the arm 107 has a hole and is connected to said plates 110 by a pin 111, thus realizing the hinge 105.
  • the moving element 102 may also comprise a plurality of supports 109, for easy connection to other elements for urban decoration, in a modular system.
  • the moving element 102 is preferably fitted with stop means, realized for example with a further ground rest 112 that can be extracted with a screw drive, for avoiding undesired movement of the element 102, e.g. caused by its weight.
  • the upper face of the base element 101 comprise a plate 114 with holes 115, that allows to connect other fixed element like a seat 116, by means of screws 117 or equivalent reversible connecting means.
  • a plurality of moving elements 102 may be connected to the same base element 101, for regulating traffic on crossroads.
  • the arms 107 of the various elements 102 are staggered as shown in fig. 4 .
  • Fig. 5 to 10 is a motorized road barrier realized according to the invention, essentially comprising a moving element 201, which is main longitudinally extending, pivotally connected to a vertical axis 202 and provided with a mobile ground rest, realized by a wheel 203, connected to an electric motor 204.
  • the motor 204 is housed in a base element 205, external to the moving element 201, and is supported by a frame structure 206 which is also rotating around the vertical axis 202.
  • the moving element 201 is connected to said structure 206 by means of a hinge pin 207 having a substantially horizontal axis, thus realizing a hinge that allows the moving element to tilt on a vertical plane.
  • the motor 204 is connected to the driving wheel 203 by a transmission shaft 208, that is provided with at least one articulated joint, advantageously a Cardan- or universal joint.
  • the transmission shaft 208 is connected to the driving shaft of the motor 204 by a first universal joint 211, and is connected to the wheel 203 by a second universal joint 212.
  • the transmission shaft is conveniently realized in two parts connected by a slip joint 213. A certain axial slip between the two parts of the shaft is therefore permitted to compensate for the variation of axial distance between motor 204 and wheel 203, that is caused by the inclination of the moving element 201 that can be induced by a roadbed with a considerable gradient.
  • a reduction gear 210 is provided between the motor 204 and the transmission shaft 208, which in the preferred embodiment is an angular reduction gear, for allowing to install the motor 204 with vertical axis, thus reducing overall dimensions.
  • the frame structure 206 is substantially realized with a casing that comprises vertical rods, reinforcing collars and a bottom platform, resting on a plate 214, this last being fixed with screws to a counter-plate 215 secured to the ground.
  • the moving element 201 is connected to the pin 207 through a bracket 209, whose arms have one end fixed to said body and the opposite end engaging said pin.
  • the bracket 209 is advantageously provided with a top cover, not shown, which is openable or removable. Said cover allows easy access to the universal joint 211, for disconnection of shaft 208 from reduction gear 210 and manual operation of the barrier in case of power failure.
  • the universal joint 211 is conveniently of the kind with a locking ring, for quick coupling to the shaft.
  • the top cover of the bracket 209 can be realized essentially with two metal sheets, positioned in contact one on the other, for leaving the element 201 free to tilt around the pin 207.
  • the element 201 may be, for example, made of concrete, the wheel 203 being supported by a journal 218 fixed to a steel cross-member screwed to the bottom of the element 201 itself.
  • mobile contacts with adjustable position activated by contact with a stationary element, are advantageously provided, to produce a signal that is correlated to the angular position of the moving element 201 on the horizontal plane, for example for automatic stop at the end of the stroke.
  • said contacts may comprise a switch 220 fixed to a support 221, whose position is adjustable on a guide 222 associated to the frame structure 206.
  • said switch 220 comprise a contact 223 and a flexible blade 224, adapted to cooperate with a stationary element 225, that is fixed, for example, to the plate 214.
  • the barrier may also comprise some sensors, not shown, housed in the base 205 and rotating with the moving element 201, that detect obstacles on its trajectory and, if any, immediately stop the motor.
  • the barrier is also equipped with a control panel 230, advantageously housed in the base 205.
  • a key, badge or remote command system can be provided, as well as a temporized automatic command system for opening or closing at predetermined hours and for emergency and automatic stop.
  • the moving element 201 is preferably a flower-holder, having the shape illustrated in the figures, substantially of a parallelepiped with rounded ends, that is nice-looking and easy to introduce even in historical centres.
  • the moving element 201 may also be another element for street furniture, and may comprise light signals, road signs, information for tourists, and so on.
  • the base element 205 is conveniently provided with a protective cover, and is shaped as a common cylindrical traffic barrier.
  • the materials employed may be any according to requirements and to the state of the art.
