DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, the configuration of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the drawings showing an embodiment of the present invention. In FIGS. 1 and 2, a transparent resin containing a luminous material is molded and an arrow indicating the direction of evacuation is designated as a sign plate 1, and the sign plate 1 is fitted into an opaque colored resin plate 2 having a rectangular outer shape and fixed. Then, an evacuation guidance sign S is obtained. The sign plate 1 is obtained by kneading a phosphorescent material into a transparent resin and then molding it into a desired shape. The main transparent resin constituting the sign plate 1 is specifically an ABS resin, an AS resin, an acrylic resin, a styrene resin, or the like. Luminescent material stores light energy and emits light even after removing light from the outside. Specifically, it is called N Nightlight (trademark) currently manufactured and sold by Nemoto Special Chemical Co., Ltd. Phosphorescent material. There are three types currently marketed by the company: G-300M Green, BG-30
G-300M green (particulate powder having a diameter of 10 μm) was used for the sign plate 1 among 0M blue and V-300M violet. Note that BG-300M blue, which has a blue color, may be used as a special place, for example, an important facility in a hospital, a place for displaying luxury goods, a museum, or the like. The content of the phosphorescent material may be in the range of 10% to 40% by weight, preferably 20% to 35%, and most preferably around 30%. In a place such as a passage in a building where the illuminance of indoor lighting is high, the lower limit of 10% is effective, but when the illuminance is lower than 10%, the effect of brilliancy is reduced. 40%
Is a technical limit value in plastic molding. If it exceeds 40%, mass production of plastic is technically difficult, expensive, and economical. In the illustrated embodiment, the shape of the sign plate 1 is indicated by a thick arrow to indicate an evacuation route and an evacuation exit (emergency exit). However, the shape of the arrow can be selected as appropriate, and as described above, a figure in which a fleeing person conventionally employed in emergency exits is designed as a pattern may be used.

The material of the opaque colored resin plate 2 into which the sign plate 1 is fitted has a rectangular outer shape, and is made of ABS resin, AS as well as the main transparent resin constituting the sign plate 1.
An opaque resin is obtained by adding a dye or pigment as a colorant to a resin such as a resin, an acrylic resin, or a styrene resin. In the embodiment, it is colored red. However, the color can be appropriately selected, and a designated color according to a user's desired request may be adopted. This is because the opaque colored resin plate 2 merely makes the sign plate 1 stand out at normal times, and the color cannot be confirmed in the dark. The luminous material contained in the sign plate 1 absorbs ultraviolet light from the lighting equipment and accumulates light energy, and the sign plate 1 emits a fluorescent color in the dark in an emergency, allowing evacuees to recognize the way to the emergency exit In the case of the first floor, it is possible to safely guide to the emergency door that opens directly to the outside and the emergency door that follows the evacuation stairs on the second floor and above.

At the four corners of the opaque colored resin plate 2, stepped holes 21 are formed, and the opaque colored resin plate 2 is screwed into a wall or the like with screws. A thin step portion 11 is formed on the periphery of the sign plate 1, while a step portion 22 is formed on the rear surface side periphery of the hole of the opaque resin plate 2 in which the sign plate 1 is fitted.
The step 11 on the periphery of the sign plate 1 is attached to the step 22 from the back side of the opaque colored resin plate and fitted to have approximately the same thickness, and an adhesive is applied to the step-like joint to be integrated. To be connected.

Until now, the evacuation guidance sign S has been mounted directly on a wall or the like with screws or the like. However, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, an opaque colored resin plate 2 is separately provided on the periphery of the mounting ring with screws. 41 may be attached to a frame-shaped metal decorative frame 4 integrally provided. The decorative frame 4 is made of iron and the surface thereof is chrome-plated. The mounting ring 41 is formed integrally and is mounted on a wall or the like with screws. The material of the decorative frame 4 is not limited to metal, but may be a material obtained by plating a resin molded frame, a wooden material, an artificial stone material, a pseudo wooden material, or the like. As shown in FIG. 5, on the back surface of the sign plate 1, a plastic containing a phosphorescent material is coated on the back surface of the sign plate 1 so that the fluorescent color of the sign plate 1 is improved in the darkness and the brightness is increased. The light-storing sheet 3 on which is formed is stuck.
This luminous sheet 3 is formed by forming a luminous coating film on one surface of a sheet processed from an ABS resin, an AS resin, an acrylic resin, a styrene resin, or another resin having a thickness of 0.2 to 0.3 mm. Things. A luminous coating film is formed by silk printing with a paint containing a luminous material or by spray coating.

Although the cost is slightly increased by attaching the luminous sheet 3 to the back surface of the sign plate 1, visibility in darkness is increased by increasing glitter. Although not shown, the peripheral edge of the phosphorescent sheet 3 is attached to the opaque colored resin plate 2 from the back surface of the sign plate 1 so that the sign plate 1 can be prevented from falling off the opaque colored resin plate 2. In particular, if the visibility is deteriorated due to smoke in the case of fire, dust in the case of earthquake, etc., it is possible to guide in a safer direction by increasing the glitter. Since human life is involved, even if the production cost is slightly high, no maintenance is required, and the total economic efficiency is secured.

In the past, a screw was screwed in to attach the evacuation guidance sign S, but it may be attached with an adhesive as shown in FIG. The back surface of the combination of the sign plate 1 and the opaque colored resin plate 2 is covered with a release paper 6 via an adhesive layer 5, and the release paper 6 is removed and attached to a desired portion when actually attached. Like that. In practice, the double-sided adhesive tape is peeled off on one side of the release paper, and is uniformly applied to the back surface of the sign plate 1 and the opaque colored resin plate 2 or at the four corners, or even the periphery, and then the other side is peeled off at the desired position The paper may be peeled off and attached. In addition, assuming that the phosphorescent sheet 3 is attached to the back surface of the sign plate 1, the adhesive layer 5 and the release paper 6 may be provided on the back surface.

Further, in the above description, the part which is actually a sign is a plate having rigidity. However, the evacuation guidance sign S only needs to be attached to a wall surface or the like, so that it has sufficient brightness in the dark. If it can perform its function, it may be thin and flexible. The above-described transparent resin may be kneaded with a phosphorescent material having a weight ratio of 10% to 40% to form a sheet, which may be cut into an arrow and used as an evacuation guidance sign S as it is. Or at least one surface of the resin sheet, which is a phosphorescent coating (by silk printing or spray coating as described above)
May be formed and cut into an arrow or the like to obtain the evacuation guidance sign S. Even if such an evacuation guidance sign S is attached to a wall surface or the like, it is almost flush and does not become a projection, and the attachment can be easily applied by applying an adhesive to the back surface or using a double-sided adhesive tape or the like. Become.

FIG. 7 shows an evacuation guidance sign S affixed to a wall of a corridor in a lodging facility such as a hotel, a lodge or a hospital.
It is. This number will be appropriately dealt with depending on the size of the facility. It should be noted that smoke may fill the corridor and evacuate due to crawling on the stomach. FIG. 8 is a plan view showing a state where a number of evacuation guidance signs S are attached to the inner wall of the corridor so as to guide to the emergency stairs. Although not shown in FIG. 7 and FIG. 8, light energy is stored in the sign plate 1, the phosphorescent sheet 3, etc. from the lighting equipment in the corridor or the passage, and the evacuation guidance sign S is It maintains the afterglow characteristics for a long time, and the function can be exhibited by the original color of the phosphorescent material. FIG. 9 shows a case where an emergency light such as a fluorescent light is arranged above the emergency door D, in which the evacuation guidance signs S according to the present invention are combined, and the evacuation guidance signs S are sheet-shaped. It is desirable. In addition, the evacuation guidance sign can be quickly evacuated by pointing the tip of the arrow of the evacuation guidance sign toward the door knob. FIG. 10 shows that an evacuation guidance sign S in the shape of an arrow is arranged along the slope of the stairs, which is effective in that the location of the stairs can be confirmed in the dark and a fall accident is prevented.
