Ledit mobilier pouvant être utilisé, soit à l'extérieur, soit dans un environnement protégé. MODULAR MICRO-SIGNALING FURNITURE
DESCRIPTION
The invention relates to micro-signaling furniture of the kind comprising a mast, a mast base intended to be fixed to the ground and signaling elements carrying verbal and graphic eVou inscriptions and supported by said mast. Said furniture can be used either outside or in a protected environment.

Le mobilier connu du genre en question comprend en général au moins un mât sur lequel est fixé au moins un panneau porteur d'inscriptions. Certains ne permettent qu'une seule configuration et d'autres sont modulaires de manière à faire varier le nombre de panneaux indicateurs en fonction de l'application. Known furniture of the genre in question generally comprises at least one mast on which is fixed at least one panel carrying inscriptions. Some allow only one configuration and others are modular so as to vary the number of signs depending on the application.

L'invention vise à réaliser un mobilier de micro-signalisation modulaire, de conception nouvelle et originale, permettant une importante variété de configurations. The invention aims to produce modular micro-signaling furniture, of new and original design, allowing a large variety of configurations.

Elle concerne à cet effet un mobilier qui se caractérise en ce que les éléments de signalisation sont constitués d'un empilement modulaire de bagues, cylindriques, coaxiales entre elles et par rapport au mât cylindrique qui les supporte, interchangeables, orientables en rotation et adaptées pour servir, pour les unes, de supports d'inscriptions eVou de moyens de fixation d'éléments, également modulaires, interchangeables, orientables, et adaptés pour servir de supports d'inscriptions, et, pour les autres, de bagues intermédiaires notamment porteuses d'inscriptions. To this end, it relates to furniture which is characterized in that the signaling elements consist of a modular stack of rings, cylindrical, coaxial with one another and with respect to the cylindrical mast which supports them, interchangeable, orientable in rotation and suitable for serve, for some, as registration supports eVou as means of fixing elements, also modular, interchangeable, orientable, and adapted to serve as registration supports, and, for others, as intermediate rings in particular carrying registrations.

Selon des particularités de réalisation de l'invention : - le maintien axial des bagues est assuré au moyen d'une tige filetée associée, en partie basse, à une pièce comportant un filetage qui sert à régler sa hauteur et, en partie haute, à une rondelle surmontée d'un dispositif de serrage de l'ensemble des bagues entre elles ; - le maintien radial des bagues est assuré au moyen d'un épaulement périphérique, réalisé sur l'une desdites bagues, s'emboîtant dans une rainure périphérique, réalisée sur l'autre desdites bagues. According to particular features of the invention: - the axial retention of the rings is ensured by means of a threaded rod associated, in the lower part, with a part comprising a thread which serves to adjust its height and, in the upper part, to a washer surmounted by a device for clamping all of the rings therebetween; - The radial retention of the rings is ensured by means of a peripheral shoulder, produced on one of the said rings, fitting into a peripheral groove, produced on the other of the said rings.
