Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a self-emitting type road sign, which can be attached to a pole with a high degree of freedom in positioning.SOLUTION: A self-emitting type road sign includes a display board, emitters arranged around the periphery of the display board, and a solar battery unit. The display board is provided with an attachment part at the back. A pole holding member is attached to the rear face of the attachment part, being slidable to the right and left direction. The attachment part is fixed to the pole, and a lifting member for forming a gap between the solar battery unit and the pole holding member in the front-back direction is attached on the front side of the attachment part. The attachment of the lifting member allows the pole holding member not to come in contact with the solar battery unit when the position of the pole holding part to be attached to the attachment part is slid in the right and left direction for adjustment. Consequently the attachment position of the display board to the pole can be more freely adjusted.

FIG. 12 is a diagram showing a situation where the self-luminous road sign 1 of FIG. 11 is attached to the support column, and FIG. 13 is an enlarged side view showing a situation where the self-luminous road sign 1 of FIG.
In FIG. 12, illustration of the display board 2 and the display board bulking material 5 is abbreviate | omitted for simplification of drawing.
The self-light-emitting road sign 1 of the present embodiment is attached to a column S that is erected via a column holding member 8 that is attached to the attachment unit 7.
The column holding member 8 of the present embodiment is a so-called U-band formed by bending a belt-shaped metal plate, a winding portion 81 formed in a curved plate shape along the outer peripheral surface of the column S, and this winding. A flat plate-like contact portion 82 projecting outward from both ends of the turning portion, and each contact portion 82 is formed with two round hole-shaped through-holes 83, one in total. Yes.

The self-luminous road sign 1 is attached by first attaching the fixing bolt B <b> 3 to the attachment portion 7. The fixing bolt B3 supported and fixed by the protrusions 73a and 73b of the mounting portion 7 projects the male screw portion rearward, the mounting portion 7 disposed on the upper side, and the mounting portion 7 disposed on the lower side. A total of four are attached to each of the two.
The male screw portion of each fixing bolt B3 is inserted into each through-hole 83 of the two column holding members 8 in which the winding part 81 is wound around the column S, and the nut N3 is screwed from behind.
Each strut holding member 8 is attached to each attachment portion 7 by bringing the front surface of each contact portion 82 into contact with the rear surface of the protrusions 73a and 73b of each attachment portion 7, and is self-luminous road sign. 1 is attached to the column S.

The fixing bolt B3 supported by the mounting portion 7 is positioned in the lateral direction along the longitudinal direction of the mounting portion 7 if the screwing of the nut N3 is loosened in the same manner as the fixing bolt B2 supported by the trunk edge 21. Adjustment is provided. Thereby, the support | pillar holding member 8 fixed to the attaching part 7 can be slid to the horizontal direction, and the attachment position can be adjusted.
Moreover, the support | pillar holding member 8 consisting of a U band can be attached by being wound at an arbitrary height of the support S.
In other words, the self-light-emitting road sign 1 is attached to the support column S so that the position in the vertical and horizontal directions can be adjusted.

The display board 2 of this embodiment is attached to each attachment part 7 via the display board bulking material 5. Since the display board bulk material 5 includes a bulky portion 55 formed between the front plate portion 51 and the rear plate portion 57, the rear surface position R of the attachment portion 7 to which the column holding member 8 is attached, the display plate 2, and the like. In the meantime, a gap of at least the size before and after the bulky portion 55 is formed.
In addition, since each attachment portion 7 is attached to the frame body 3 via each bulk material 6, at least the front and rear sizes of the bulk upper portion 65 between the rear surface position R of the attachment portion 7 and the frame body 3. More gaps are formed.
Thus, since the display board 2 and the frame 3 are fixed to the attachment part 7 via the display board bulking material 5 and the bulking material 6, respectively, the self-light-emitting road sign 1 is supported via the support | pillar holding member 8. So that the front and rear positions of the display plate 2 and the frame body 3 are not greatly separated, so that the display plate 2 and the frame body 3 formed separately can be visually recognized integrally. Has been made.

  When each solar cell unit 4 of this embodiment fixes the support part 47 formed in the front surface of the case 45 and the frame material 32, and attaches to the rear surface side of the frame 3, the attachment part 7, the frame 3, By attaching the bulking material 6 between the two, the rear end of the solar cell unit 4 is disposed forward of the rear surface position R of the attachment portion 7 and attached to the frame 3. Thereby, even if the support | pillar holding member 8 attached to the attachment part 7 is moved laterally to adjust the position, the support S does not come into contact with the solar cell unit 4, and the self-luminous road sign 1 to the support S is The degree of freedom of the mounting position is improved.

Moreover, since the display board 2 and the frame 3 are provided separately, the frame 3 can be removed and only the display board 2 can be used as a road sign. To remove the frame 3 from the display board 2, the screwing between the fixing bolt B2 and the nut N2 supported on the trunk edge 21 shown in FIG. 10 is released, and the display board bulking material 5 is removed from the display board 2. Can be easily implemented.
And since the trunk edge 21 of the display board 2 of this embodiment is formed in the same cross-sectional shape as the attaching part 7, the fixing bolt B3 used for attachment of the support | pillar holding member 8 is supported to the said trunk edge 21. The display board 2 from which the frame body 3 is removed can be easily attached to the column S by attaching the column holding member 8 to the trunk edge 21.
At this time, it is also clear that the column holding member 8 attached to the trunk edge 21 is slid to the left and right to adjust the position so that the attachment position of the display panel 2 to the column can be easily adjusted.
