  However, the sign post described in Patent Document 1 has a problem in that it has an unpleasant metal sound that occurs when opening and closing the outlet cover, an unexpected impact sound, and damage due to the impact.

  Therefore, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, reduce unpleasant metal sound that occurs when opening and closing the outlet lid, and with the mitigation of impact sound in the event of an unexpected, It is an object of the present invention to provide a new sign post that can mitigate the impact itself and prevent damage.

  In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention forms an outlet on the back surface of the post body, and an outlet lid is rotatably provided around the lower end of the outlet as a shaft. A sign post that is opened and closed by movement, and a damper is disposed on at least one side of the left and right edges of the outlet, and the lower end of the back surface of the outlet lid contacts the damper's buffer shaft according to the opening of the outlet lid. And the protrusion part which makes open | release of an outlet cover loosely with the buffering force of this damper is provided, It is characterized by the above-mentioned.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to reduce unpleasant metal sounds that occur when opening and closing the outlet cover, and to reduce the impact sound in the event of an unexpected event and to reduce the impact itself to prevent damage.

  The invention of the present application has the above-described features. Hereinafter, embodiments of the invention of the present application will be described in detail and specifically with reference to the accompanying drawings.

  1A and 1B are overall perspective views illustrating an embodiment of a sign post according to the present invention. FIG. 1A shows a state in which an outlet cover is closed, and FIG. 1B shows a state in which an outlet cover is open. FIG. 2 is an enlarged view of a portion X in FIG. 1 and illustrates the damper in a state where the outlet cover is opened. FIG. 3 is a cross-sectional perspective view of an essential part illustrating the back part of another sign post according to the present invention.

  The sign post 1 of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 and 2. The sign post 1 of the present invention has a slot (not shown) through which a throwing object or the like is thrown on the front surface of the post body 11, and is formed on the back surface of the post body 11 so as to face this slot. , An outlet 2 is formed for taking out the thrown item.

  With the lower end of the outlet 2 as an axis, an outlet lid 3 is provided so as to be rotatable outwardly of the sign post 1, and the outlet 2 is opened and closed by the rotation of the outlet lid 3. Specifically, for example, at least one shaft bar support member 31 is provided in the lower portion of the outlet cover 3 in the longitudinal direction, and the outlet cover (not shown) provided in the shaft bar support member 31 is provided in the outlet cover. The shaft rod 32 for rotating the 3 as described above is inserted, and both left and right end portions thereof are held in contact with the inner wall surface of the post body 11. As will be described later, the shaft rod support member 31 may be a protrusion 5 that is brought into contact with the buffer shaft 41 of the damper 4.

  In such a sign post 1, the damper 4 is disposed on at least one side of the post body 11 inside the left and right edge portions 21 a and 21 b of the outlet 2. For example, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, the damper 4 is provided with an engagement claw 42 provided on the damper 4 at the edges 21 a and 21 b of the damper 2. It can arrange | position by inserting in the hole 22 and making it engage.

  In the sign post 1 of the present invention, the damper 4 is disposed, and the lower end of the back surface of the outlet cover 3 comes into contact with the buffer shaft 41 of the damper 4 according to the opening of the outlet cover 3 and is indicated by an arrow of the damper 4. Further, a protruding portion 5 is provided to loosen the opening of the outlet cover 3 with a buffering force caused by vertical movement. The protrusion 5 may be formed integrally with the shaft rod support member 31 as in the examples of FIGS. 1 and 2 or may be formed as a separate body as in the example of FIG. In any case, it is important that the protruding portion 5 comes into contact with the buffer shaft 41 of the damper 4 when the take-out cover 3 is opened, and pushes up the buffer shaft 41 according to the opening to obtain a buffering force.

  The sign post 1 of the present invention having such a configuration reduces unpleasant metal sounds that occur when the outlet lid 3 is opened and closed, and also reduces the impact noise in the event of an unexpected event. Damage can be prevented.

  Moreover, as illustrated in FIGS. 1 to 3, in the sign post 1 of the present invention, the exit cover 3 is usually provided with a transparent or translucent observation window 33 so that the inside can be seen for confirmation of the throwing object. It may be done. Furthermore, in order to open and close the outlet cover 3 smoothly, a push latch 6 as shown in the example of FIG. 1 or a handle or the like (not shown) may be provided.

  In particular, the push latch 6 is preferable because the opening / closing of the outlet cover 3 can be simplified. Specifically, in the case of the push latch 6, the engagement between the push latch 6 and the push latch receiving portion 12 formed on the post body 11 side is released simply by pushing the push latch 6, and the outlet cover 3 is opened. be able to. For this reason, for example, even if only one hand can be used for luggage, it can be opened easily. On the other hand, when closing the outlet cover 3, the push latch 6 and the push latch receiving portion 12 are reliably engaged by simply pushing the outlet cover 3, and the outlet cover 3 can be reliably closed. The push latch 6 may be a dial type push latch having a lock function with high crime prevention.

  And since the sign post 1 of the invention of the present application uses the lower opening type that opens from the top to the bottom as described above, the opening and closing method of the outlet cover 3 is an upper opening type sign that opens from the bottom to the conventional one. Like a post, the user does not have to bend the body while opening the outlet cover 3 to check the presence or absence of a throwing object. Specifically, by adopting the downward opening type, it is possible to keep the outlet cover 3 open by its own weight without bothering the user, and during that time the check and removal of the thrown item can be performed smoothly. it can.

  The sign post 1 of the present invention having such a feature may be an embedded sign post 1 that is embedded and installed in a block cage 7 or the like as in the example of FIG. It may be a sign post such as a mold, a stationary type, or a pole mounting type.

  Although not shown in the figure, the opening formed on the front surface of the sign post body of the present invention may be provided with an openable / closable lid so as to cover the opening. Since it is provided via a spring, it can be pushed inward and opened when a throwing object is placed, and can be closed by a spring after the posting.

  Furthermore, in the sign post 1 of the present invention, as illustrated in FIG. 3, a general-purpose phosphorescent material capable of emitting light with high brightness over a long period of time by receiving light for a short time on the inner bottom surface 8, The light emitting layer 9 may be formed by arranging a part or all of the light emitting layer 9 so as to be hidden by the posting. By forming the light emitting layer 9, it is possible to easily confirm the presence or absence of a posting item at night from the change in intensity of the light amount of the light emitting layer 9. That is, when the posting object is not posted, the light emitted from the light emitting layer 9 is not blocked by the posting object, so there is almost no change in the light amount and the light amount is strong. On the other hand, when a thrown object is placed, the light emitted from the light emitting layer 9 is blocked by the thrown object, and the amount of light becomes weak.

  In addition, in order for the light emitting layer 9 to emit light, it is necessary to absorb light such as sunlight and UV. Usually, the outlet lid 3 has a transparent or translucent observation window 33 as described above. Therefore, light can be efficiently incident and stored (absorbed), and the amount of light at the time of light emission can also be confirmed.

  Of course, the sign post of the present invention is not limited to the above examples, and it is needless to say that various aspects are possible in the details. For example, as the material of each member constituting the sign post, aluminum die casting, galvalume steel plate, stainless steel (SUS304, SUS316, etc.), various plastics (ABS resin, AES resin, PMMA resin, etc.), etc. should be used as appropriate. These may be subjected to a coating treatment or the like for enhancing the weather resistance, if necessary.
