La presente invención se refiere a un dispositivo accionador/controlador de semáforos, del tipo de los implantados en los postes de los mismos, que incluyen un pulsador a través del cual se solicita que el semáforo se cierre al tráfico rodado en orden a permitir cruzar a través de un paso de peatones, ya sea en un cruce, o a lo largo de una vía urbana o interurbana.The present invention relates to a traffic light actuator / controller device, of the type of implanted in their posts, which include a push button through which it is requested that the traffic light be closed to traffic rolled in order to allow crossing through a crosswalk, either at a junction, or along an urban highway or long distance

El objeto de la invención es conseguir un dispositivo con una estructura compacta y resistente, que proporcione a éste un fuerte carácter anti-vandálico, en orden a alargar sensiblemente la vida útil del dispositivo, así como un sistema de iluminación de los mensajes emitidos por el dispositivo ópticamente mejorado, más eficiente energéticamente y con una peridiocidad de recambio mayor.The object of the invention is to achieve a device with a compact and resistant structure, which give it a strong character anti-vandalism, in order to significantly lengthen the device lifespan, as well as a lighting system of messages emitted by the optically enhanced device, more energy efficient and with a replacement periodicity higher.

Antecedentes de la invenciónBackground of the invention

En el ámbito de aplicación práctica de la invención, el de los semáforos establecidos a nivel de pasos de peatones, son conocidos dispositivos materializados en una carcasa prismático rectangular, que se fija al propio poste del semáforo, de manera que dicha carcasa incorpora un pulsador para solicitar que el semáforo se cierre al tráfico rodado, así como una pareja de indicadores luminosos que indican si el cierre del semáforo ha sido ya solicitado o que el sistema está pendiente de que se solicite, ya que, con éste tipo de dispositivos el semáforo no suele cerrarse de forma instantánea, ya que en algunos casos colapsarían la vía, de manera que en tiempo de activación del mismo dependerá del tiempo que lleve dicho semáforo sin cerrarse.In the practical scope of the invention, that of traffic lights established at the level of steps of pedestrians, devices materialized in a housing are known rectangular prismatic, which is fixed to the traffic light post itself, so that said housing incorporates a button to request that the traffic light is closed to road traffic, as well as a pair of indicator lights that indicate if the traffic light has been closed already requested or that the system is pending request, since, with this type of devices the traffic light does not usually close instantaneously, since in some cases they would collapse the path, of  so that the activation time will depend on the time to carry said traffic light without closing.

Si bien este tipo de dispositivos cumplen satisfactoriamente la función para la que han sido previstos, presentan en la práctica una problemática que se centra en que resultan frágiles frente acciones vandálicas, dado que, los indicadores del estado del semáforo se materializan en una pareja de ventanas sobre los que se establecen sendas placas con el correspondiente mensaje "pulse el botón"/"espere verde", o equivalentes, tras las que se disponen los medios de iluminación de las mismas, de manera que mediante el golpeo de las mismas con un objeto romo o similar dichas placas pueden dañarse fácilmente, al igual que los medios de iluminación de las mismas, con la consecuente y negativa repercusión a nivel de costos que ello conlleva.While these types of devices comply satisfactorily the function for which they have been planned, they present in practice a problem that focuses on they are fragile against vandalism actions, given that traffic light status indicators materialize in a couple of windows on which plates are established with the corresponding message "press the button" / "wait for green", or  equivalent, after which the lighting means of the same, so that by hitting them with a blunt object or similar such plates can be easily damaged by same as the lighting means thereof, with the consequent and negative impact at cost level that entails

Descripción de la invenciónDescription of the invention

El dispositivo accionador de semáforos que la invención propone resuelve de forma plenamente satisfactoria la problemática anteriormente expuesta, merced a una estructuración que lo hace sumamente robusto frente a acciones anti-vandálicas.The traffic light actuator device that the proposed invention resolves in a fully satisfactory way the problematic previously exposed, thanks to a structuring which makes it extremely robust against actions anti-vandalism

Para ello y de forma mas concreta, y a partir de la estructuración convencional de éste tipo de dispositivos, en los que participa una carcasa que se fija al correspondiente poste del semáforo, con una tapa anterior dotada de una pareja de ventanas a través de las que se indica si el cierre del semáforo ha sido ya solicitado o que el sistema está pendiente de que se solicite, contando igualmente con un pulsador de solicitud de dicho cierre del semáforo, la invención centra sus características en el hecho de que los medios de señalización del estado del semáforo se materializan en el caso de la ventana superior en una placa de polimetil-metacrilato (en adelante y por motivos de simplificación PMMA) con un mensaje fijo establecido sobre su cara posterior, de indicación al usuario de accionamiento del correspondiente pulsador para petición de paso, careciendo esta placa de medios de iluminación, de manera que dicho mensaje será claramente visible en todo momento. Puede preverse con iluminación continua en esta ventana superior.To do this and more specifically, and from the conventional structuring of this type of devices, in the that participates a housing that is fixed to the corresponding post of the traffic light, with a front cover equipped with a pair of windows to through which it is indicated if the traffic light has been closed requested or that the system is pending request, also having a push button requesting said closure of the traffic light, the invention focuses its characteristics on the fact that the signaling means of the traffic light state are they materialize in the case of the upper window in a plate polymethyl methacrylate (hereinafter and for reasons of PMMA simplification) with a fixed message set on your face later, of indication to the user of actuation of the corresponding push button for step request, lacking this lighting media plate, so that message will be clearly visible at all times. It can be provided with lighting Continue in this upper window.

Por su parte, en correspondencia con la ventana inferior se establecerá una segunda placa de PMMA con un mensaje sobre la cara posterior indicando al usuario que espere, placa tras la que se establecerá una segunda placa de PMMA con fondo blanco y a cuyo perímetro estará asociado un sistema de iluminación mediante diodos LED en sustitución de las tradicionales lámparas de incandescencia ahorrando así una gran cantidad de energía.For its part, in correspondence with the window bottom will be set a second PMMA board with a message on the back side telling the user to wait, plate after which will establish a second PMMA board with white background and to whose perimeter a lighting system will be associated by LED diodes replacing the traditional lamps of incandescence thus saving a lot of energy.

De acuerdo con esta estructuración las placas anteriormente mencionadas quedarán dispuestas sobre una placa de refuerzo de gran estanqueidad y anti-vandálica en chapa de acero o material plástico suficientemente robusto, de manera que, dada la alta resistencia del PMMA, y al impedir su flexión la placa anti-vandálica dispuesta tras dichas placas, el conjunto será capaz de resistir fuertes impactos sin verse apenas afectado, a lo que hay que añadir el hecho de que los medios de iluminación del dispositivo se sitúan sobre los bordes de la placa iluminada, de manera que quedan protegidos por el escudo que constituye la tapa anterior del dispositivo, resultando del todo inaccesibles frente a acciones vandálicas.According to this structuring the plates above mentioned will be arranged on a plate of strong and anti-vandalism reinforcement in sheet steel or plastic material sufficiently robust, of so that, given the high resistance of the PMMA, and by preventing its bending the anti-vandal plate arranged after said plates, the set will be able to withstand strong impacts without being hardly affected, to which we must add the fact that the lighting means of the device are placed on the edges of the illuminated plate, so that they are protected by the shield that constitutes the front cover of the device, resulting completely inaccessible against vandalism.

De acuerdo con otra de las características de la invención, se ha previsto que la citada tapa anterior se fije a la carcasa principal a través de tornillos que se accionan desde la cara interna del dispositivo, de manera que, una vez esté éste instalado, su acceso resulte más complejo, o incluso no sea posible, por parte de terceros, salvo con herramientas especiales y concretas.According to another of the characteristics of the invention, it is provided that said above cover is fixed to the main housing through screws that are operated from the internal face of the device, so that once it is installed, your access is more complex, or even not possible, by third parties, except with special tools and concrete.

Realización preferente de la invenciónPreferred Embodiment of the Invention

A la vista de la figura reseñada puede observarse como el dispositivo que se preconiza está constituido a partir de una carcasa (1) básicamente prismático rectangular, abierta frontalmente, contando en su cara posterior con un orificio y su correspondiente pasa-cables (2) de entrada de alimentación, carcasa destinada a fijarse por los medios de que se trate al poste de un semáforo, como por ejemplo a través de un conjunto tornillo-arandela (3) zincados, carcasa (1) que incorpora en correspondencia con su embocadura con una especie de valona perimetral (1') sobre la que se fija por atornillamiento una tapa anterior (4), dotada de una pareja de ventanas (4'-4''), así como de un conjunto botonera-interruptor (5) establecido en su zona inferior.In view of the review figure you can be observed as the device that is recommended is constituted to from a basically rectangular prismatic housing (1), open frontally, with a hole in the back and its corresponding cable entry (2) of power supply, housing intended to be fixed by the means of treat a traffic light post, such as through a galvanized screw-washer assembly (3), housing (1) which incorporates in correspondence with its mouthpiece with a kind of perimeter wall (1 ') on which it is fixed by screwing a front cover (4), equipped with a pair of windows (4'-4``), as well as a set keypad-switch (5) established in your area lower.

Tanto la carcasa (1) del dispositivo como la tapa anterior (4) estarán obtenidas a partir de aluminio con recubrimiento de poliéster en polvo o termoplástico técnico de alta resistencia, mientras que los tornillos (6) con los que se fijan ambos elementos son de acero inoxidable, accediéndose a los mismos desde la cara posterior del dispositivo.Both the housing (1) of the device and the front cover (4) will be obtained from aluminum with polyester powder coating or high technical thermoplastic resistance, while the screws (6) with which they are fixed both elements are made of stainless steel, accessing them from the back of the device.

Pues bien, de acuerdo ya con la esencia de la invención, se ha previsto que en el seno del conjunto anteriormente descrito se establezca, paralelamente a una fuente de alimentación (7) de la que se hablará más adelante, una placa de refuerzo anti-vandálica (8), obtenida en chapa de acero bicromatado o plástico, que se fija mediante tornillos (9) a la tapa anterior (4).Well, according to the essence of the invention, it is provided that within the set previously described be established, parallel to a power supply (7) which will be discussed later, a reinforcing plate anti-vandalism (8), obtained in sheet steel dichromate or plastic, which is fixed by screws (9) to the cover  previous (4).

Entre estos elementos, y en correspondencia con la ventana superior (4') se establecerá una placa de PMMA no iluminada (11) con un mensaje fijo establecido sobre su cara posterior, correspondiente a la petición de accionamiento, tal como "Peatón pulse", "Pulse el botón"; etc, mientras que entre la placa de acero o plástico (8) y la ventana inferior (4'') se establecen una placa de PMMA (10) con fondo blanco asociada a un sistema de iluminación LED establecido lateralmente, y alimentado a través de la citada fuente de alimentación (7), placa sobre la que se establece una segunda placa de PMMA (12) con un mensaje por la cara posterior indicador de que el pulsador ya ha sido activado, como por ejemplo "Espere verde", mensaje que sólo será visible cuando la placa (10) con fondo blanco sea iluminada.Among these elements, and in correspondence with the upper window (4 ') will establish a PMMA plate not illuminated (11) with a fixed message set on your face subsequent, corresponding to the drive request, such as "Pedestrian press", "Press the button"; etc while entering the steel or plastic plate (8) and the lower window (4 '') are establish a PMMA plate (10) with a white background associated with a LED lighting system set laterally, and fed to through said power supply (7), plate on which a second PMMA board (12) is established with a message by the back side indicating that the button has already been activated, such as "Wait for green", a message that will only be visible when the plate (10) with white background is illuminated.

De esta manera se consigue, tal y como se ha comentado con anterioridad, una estructuración sumamente robusta frente a cualquier tipo de acto vandálico, de manera que los medios de iluminación de la placa con fondo blanco de PMMA (10) quedan protegidos por el escudo que constituye la tapa anterior (4), mientras que las placas de PMMA (10, 11 y 12) quedan rígidamente fijadas a la placa de acero o plástico (8) impidiendo su flexionado y consecuente rotura.In this way it is achieved, as it has been commented previously, an extremely robust structuring against any type of vandalism, so that the media of illumination of the plate with white background of PMMA (10) remain protected by the shield that constitutes the front cover (4), while the PMMA plates (10, 11 and 12) are rigidly fixed to the steel or plastic plate (8) preventing bending and consequent breakage.

Aunque la presente descripción se ha llevado a cabo según la solución más económica y sencilla, resulta evidente que, la placa superior (11) podría estar igualmente dotada de medios de iluminación idénticos a los de la placa inferior (10), sin que ello afectase a la esencia de la invención, en cuyo caso estaría igualmente asistida por una placa de PMMA con fondo blanco.Although the present description has been taken to out according to the most economical and simple solution, it is evident that, the top plate (11) could also be provided with means lighting identical to those of the lower plate (10), without this affected the essence of the invention, in which case it would be also assisted by a PMMA plate with white background.

Asimismo, los materiales, tamaño y forma de los elementos constitutivos del dispositivo en cuestión serán susceptibles de cambios siempre y cuando no quede alterada la esencialidad de la invención que se reivindica a continuación.Also, the materials, size and shape of the constituent elements of the device in question will be subject to change as long as the essentiality of the invention claimed below.
