Description

    Subject-matter of the invention
  • The present invention relates to a modular cycle lane delineator, suitable for segregating a cycle lane from other traffic lanes in order to ensure the safety of cyclists.
    • Field of application
  • This invention is applicable in the road safety element manufacture field, in this specific instance for segregating cycle lanes.
    • Prior art
  • At present, the number of lanes dedicated to bicycles is increasing, particularly in urban settings, and these cycle lanes are often found on roads shared with other traffic.
  • These cycle lanes are often marked by lines painted on the ground, which from a safety standpoint is entirely insufficient as drivers of vehicles can unintentionally encroach onto cycle lanes, posing a risk to cyclists.
  • Due to this problem, various delineator elements have been designed to be secured to the ground, either screwed or embedded, physically separating cycle lanes from lanes for other vehicles.
  • Some examples of these lane delineators for bicycles and other road traffic can be found in utility models U 201230280 and U 201231248.
  • In both cases, the modular delineator is formed by a cast iron body in a semi-cylindrical arrangement or with a semi-cylindrical stem, designed to be anchored to the ground; said delineators bearing the drawback of having the same characteristics on the sides pointing towards the cycle lane and the traffic lane. As a result, these delineators can prove effective when a vehicle starts to encroach on a cycle lane; however, they can prove particularly hazardous for cyclists if they accidentally ride into the delineators.
  • Cycle lane delineators, formed by a series of equal plastic or rubber parts that are secured to the ground, are also known. Said parts incorporate a flat surface resting on the ground and two side surfaces that are vertical or equally inclined, designed for one side to point towards the traffic lane and the other towards the cycle lane, indistinctly. Consequently, like the aforementioned delineators, these ones bear the same characteristics on opposite sides, and whilst they are a suitable barrier for vehicles they are unsafe for cycle lane users.
  • The applicant of this invention is unaware of the existence of any prior art that can effectively address these drawbacks.
    • Description of the invention
  • The modular cycle lane delineator addressed in this invention bears specific construction features intended to solve the aforementioned problem, and comprises multiple parts making it possible to form a continuous or discontinuous modular delineator, with different geometry on the side pointing towards the cycle lane from that on the side pointing towards the traffic lane in order to minimise the risk of an accident for cyclists and provide a more defined means of segregation for vehicles.
  • Another objective of the invention is for the parts of the modular delineator to be produced using a non-metallic material, preferably vulcanised rubber, to minimise the harm caused to cyclists in the event of an impact, and to incorporate recycled materials to bring down manufacturing costs and provide environmental benefits.
  • In order to meet the objectives proposed, this modular delineator comprises initial parts to form one-piece modules, and end and intermediate parts to form multi-piece modules of varying length, meaning a modular delineator can be put together with continuous or discontinuous segments, with gaps being left between consecutive modules to allow rainwater through.
  • All the aforementioned parts are made from vulcanised rubber and are shaped in the form of a hollow triangular prism that is closed at opposite ends.
  • The parts comprise: an initial open side, formed by a base resting on the ground; a second and third side that converge on a rounded upper corner, and along with the open side on the base they form angles of different sizes.
  • The second side of the parts, pointing towards the traffic lane, has a sharp gradient, while the third side, pointing towards the cycle lane, has a very gentle gradient, meaning that the delineator serves as a kerb on the side facing the traffic lane and on the opposite side, facing the cycle lane, serves as a gentle ramp.
  • All the parts of the delineator have reinforcement ribs on the inside and shafts for the screw bolts to be inserted to secure it to the ground.
  • These and other specific characteristics of the various parts of the delineator, shown in the claims, may be better understood in the invention embodiment example shown with the drawings below.
    • Description of the drawings
  • In order to add to the description made and to make it easier to understand the characteristics of the invention, enclosed with this descriptive report is a set of drawings depicting the following aspects by way of indication, without limitation:
    • Drawing 1 shows a plan view from above of the various parts of the modular cycle lane delineator according to the invention.
    • Drawing 2 shows a profile view of any of the parts, cut along a vertical plane, showing a cross-section of the parts, the inner ribs and the shafts for the screw bolts to be inserted to secure it to the ground.
    • Drawing 3 shows a plan view from below of the first part forming the one-piece modules.
    • Drawing 4 shows a plan view from above of a possible embodiment of the modular delineator comprising several initial parts forming aligned one-piece modules set apart.
    • Drawing 5 shows a plan view from below of two end parts forming multi-piece modules in the delineator.
    • Drawing 6 shows a perspective view of the two parts from the previous drawing, cut across a horizontal plane, each of which has a clearly defined tongue and a groove so they can be linked together.
    • Drawing 7 shows an elevation view of the two end parts of a multi-piece module, cut along a vertical plane and joined by the tongue-and-groove mechanism.
    • Drawing 8 shows a plan view of a possible embodiment of the modular delineator comprising several multi-piece modules, each formed by two end parts joined together, with the successive modules set apart lengthwise.
    • Drawing 9 shows a plan view from below of one of the intermediate parts forming multi-piece modules.
    • Drawing 10 shows a possible embodiment of the modular delineator comprising a multi-piece module formed by two end parts and several intermediate parts, all joined by means of a tongue-and-groove mechanism.
    Preferred embodiment of the invention
  • As shown in drawing 1, this modular delineator comprises initial parts (10a), end parts (10b, 10c) and intermediate parts (10d) forming the various modules.
  • As shown in the cross-section of drawing 2, said parts (10a - 10d) are shaped in the form of a hollow triangular prism with an initial open side (101), formed by a base resting on the ground, a second side (102) and a third side (103) that converge on a rounded upper corner (104).
