Description

Separator for parking spaces.

Object of the invention

The present invention relates to a separator for parking spaces, whose obvious purpose is to separate the space corresponding to two adjoining parking spaces public or communities, where the squares are signposted or delimited by bands painted on the floor.

The object of the invention is to avoid hitting direct that occurs when a vehicle door is opened parked in a square and there is another vehicle in the next square, against which the impact of the door occurs due to proximity of the vehicle that opens, as well as other bumps and scratches that may cause during vehicle parking maneuvers in the adjacent squares.

Background of the invention

In public parking lots and / or in which the parking spaces are narrow or do not have the breadth that would be desired, when the vehicle doors on many occasions, due to carelessness or lack of space, said door hits the vehicle parked in the adjoining square, producing scratches and damage when crashing metal against metal.

As is evident, those blows or impacts can cause an incident with the owner of the vehicle that has suffered the deterioration, as well as possible claims to the incumbent company parking, all of which involves inconvenience, conflicts, loss of time, etc.

Description of the invention

The separator for parking spaces that are advocates has been designed to solve the problem above, based on a simple solution but not for less effective

More specifically, the separator of the invention It consists of a simple canvas mounted between two posts fixed between floor and ceiling, in correspondence with the ends of the band painted on the ground that delimits two contiguous squares of parking, so that the tarp is mounted overwhelmingly by means of a spring, that is to say automatic winding, on one of the posts and can be unfolded (unrolled) and extended to the another post, on which the free edge of the canvas will be fixed using hooks, defining two adjacent squares of parking.

In this way, when you open the door of a vehicle, said door will trip over the canvas warning the user that you shouldn't keep pushing the door, but with the advantage of that in case of lack of space, you can continue to open the door, pushing the canvas and even allowing to rest on the car contiguous, and that the rubbing will suffer the canvas and prevent scratching or deterioration that could occur in the vehicle next door, in the If there is no such canvas.

The canvas is made of flame retardant material and adjustable in height inside the pole in which it is located, being able to regulate its position using an element that adjusts its height inside the post, in correspondence with the ends of the canvas itself, which, by otherwise, it will remain automatically wound in case of parking cleaning or in case of no need for be used, keeping deployed forming the separator in case of need

For its part, the post may be constituted in metal, plastic or other appropriate material, and will be equipped, up to the convenient height of a soft material protective case, for example, rubber or similar, to avoid damage to vehicles that could touch or rub against the posts, with the particularity of that the post on which the canvas hooks to keep it deployed, it will have holes for anchoring the hooks provided for the effect on the free edge of the canvas.

The posts will be anchored between floor and ceiling by means of two anchor brackets fixed to the floor and ceiling, with the interposition in both cases of an adjustable spring in position, to allow a certain displacement or tilting of the posts when a vehicle supports or collides with them.

The springs will be linked to parts adjusted and fixed to the desired length, at both ends of the respective post, determining the means of guidance and regulation to allow the docks to move and give them a tour, allowing posts to lean even more.

The posts can be complemented with pilots of signaling to improve your vision and even be equipped with a sound system that can be activated from an approach sensor or contact, to emit a warning sound to the driver of who is approaching or is your vehicle touching with one of the posts They can also be used as complementary supports in the corresponding internal signaling system of the parking.

Finally say that the posts will be preferably metallic, without discarding other materials such as PVC, plastic or similar, counting the canvas carrier post with a slot in one of its sides to allow the passage of it in its winding / unwinding.

Based on the separator described, the squares of adjacent parking will be separated from each other, acting also not only as a separator but as a protective and absorbing medium of the knocks that vehicle doors can produce when they open and impact the vehicle in the square contiguous

Description of the drawings

To complement the description that then it will be done and in order to help a better understanding of the features of the invention, according to a preferred example of practical realization thereof, is accompanied as an integral part of that description, a set of drawings in where illustrative and not limiting, it has been represented the next:

Figure 1.- Shows a front view of the parking space separator object of the invention, in position of use or operation.

Figure 2.- Shows a perspective view of the pole on which the canvas that acts as a separator is mounted proper, the other post being the same but with the holes for fixing the hooks that can be seen at the free end of said canvas.

Figure 3.- Shows a detail of the system of canvas assembly that is part of the separator of the invention.

Preferred Embodiment of the Invention

As you can see in the referred figures, the separator of the invention is constituted from a canvas (1) mounted between a pair of posts (2-2 '), fixed between floor and ceiling, in correspondence with the ends of the band drawn on the ground as a two-seater delimiting sign of Adjoining parking lot of a parking lot.

The canvas (1) is assembled in a shapely way automatic by means of a spring, inside the post (2), which It has a slot (6) for the exit of the canvas ((1), and inside both elements are arranged and fixed at the appropriate height (3) mounting and securing the canvas inside such post (2).

As seen in figure 3, the canvas (1) is wind and unwind with respect to a cylinder (4) with the spring in its inside, for automatic winding, allowing its unrolling by traction of the free edge of the canvas (1), in whose edge hooks (5) are provided for hooking and fastening of the canvas (1) deployed, on the other post (2 ').

The fixing to floor and ceiling of each one of the posts (2 and 2 '), provided these, up to a certain height, of a protector (7) of soft material, such as rubber, is made by respective supports (8) fixed to the floor and ceiling, between whose supports (8) and the ends of the posts (2 and 2 ') goes arranged, in each case, a spring (9) that at its other end opposite the fixation to the support (8) a piece or element (10) fixed at a convenient height inside the post (2-2 '), acting this part or element (10) as a means of guidance and regulation of the pier itself (9).

In a preferred embodiment, the post (2) which will be metallic and is the carrier of the canvas (1), will be arranged on the bottom or inside end of the band painted on the floor, while the post (2 ') on which the canvas (1) is hooked on its deployment will be arranged in correspondence with the front end of said band painted on the floor, although the provision could be reversed.

In this constitution or solution of the separator of parking spaces, in the event that the door of a parked vehicle, said door would be retained by the tarp, warning the passenger or driver of the delimited space, also allowing an additional opening in case there was no enough space to open the door, with the particularity of that if in some cases the door continues to open and there is to the collision with the adjoining vehicle, the canvas would cushion the impact Between both vehicles.
