Description

The present invention relates to a functional gate post equipped with various functional parts in addition to a nameplate.

In recent years, functional gate posts are often installed around the entrances of houses. In addition to the nameplate, the functional gatepost is a gatepost that is equipped with functional parts such as a mailbox, lighting, and an intercom, which not only saves space around the entrance but also makes it easier to see the entrance around. have. For delivery staff such as mail, parcels, and newspapers, if they stand in front of the functional gatepost, they can check the nameplate, call through the intercom, and post deliveries and absentee contact slips to the mailbox. There is a merit that you can do it.

Not only are functional gateposts excellent in functionality as described above, but they also have a stylish appearance. So far, functional gate posts have been proposed that have been devised in terms of how the nameplate part looks. For example, in FIG. 3 of Patent Document 1, the nameplate unit is configured by providing a character display body (display unit 31) in a closed space (nameplate space S) between the glass plate 24 and the rear wall unit 8. A functional gate post in which the character display 31 is illuminated by a light 34 provided above the nameplate space S has been proposed (see claim 1 of the same document). Patent Document 1 states that it is possible to make the nameplate a novel design by creating a depth in the nameplate part, to make the nameplate part look three-dimensional, and to improve the visibility of the nameplate part at night. (See paragraphs 0011 and 0012 of the same document).

JP, 2013-213324, A

However, since the nameplate part in the functional gatepost of Patent Document 1 has a depth and takes up space, there is a drawback that the space of the functional gatepost cannot be effectively utilized. Further, in the nameplate portion of the functional gate post of Patent Document 1, since the light is reflected on the glass plate 24, the character display body 31 may be difficult to read depending on the position of the sun, the surrounding lighting environment, and the like. Further, in the nameplate portion of the functional gate pillar of Patent Document 1, the character display body 31 is illuminated from the back side by the reflected light of the light 34 (see paragraph 0032 of the same document), which is more than that of the character display body 31. Since the surrounding area becomes bright, even if the nameplate part is conspicuous at night, the character display body 31 which is the most important part of the nameplate part may be less conspicuous.

The present invention has been made in order to solve the above problems, and provides a functional gate post that allows the nameplate part to be seen three-dimensionally without securing a large depth of the nameplate part. It is also an object of the present invention to provide a functional gate pillar that makes it easy to read the character display body that constitutes the nameplate part, day or night.

The above problems are
A gatepost body with a pillar shape and a nameplate part provided on the front,
It is composed of a gatepost cover that covers the front of the gatepost main body with a gap from the front of the gatepost main body,
This is solved by providing a functional gatepost characterized in that an opening for exposing a nameplate is provided in a portion of the gatepost cover that overlaps with a nameplate part of a gatepost body in the front and back.

This makes it possible to make the nameplate part look three-dimensional by utilizing the gap between the gatepost body and the gatepost cover. That is, even if the space for the nameplate portion is not provided inside the gatepost main body, the nameplate portion can be provided at a position deeper than the front surface of the gatepost cover. For this reason, the appearance of the nameplate part can be made fashionable and conspicuous. In addition, the space on the back side of the nameplate inside the main gate body can be effectively utilized as a wiring space or the like. Further, in the functional gate post of the present invention, since the opening for exposing the nameplate is not covered with a transparent plate such as a glass plate, it is possible to make the nameplate part easy to see.

In the functional gate post of the present invention, the nameplate may be a plate such as a stone plate in which characters are expressed, but a material (metal plate, metal rod, metal block, or the like) is processed to form the shape of the character ( It is preferable to be configured by a character display body that has been cut, bent, cut or welded. Thereby, the character display body itself of the nameplate part can be made into a three-dimensional form, and it becomes possible to make the nameplate part look more three-dimensional.

The character display body forming the nameplate may be arranged in close contact with the front face of the gate post body, but it is preferable to place it near the center of the gap (gap between the gate post body and the gate post cover) in the front-rear direction. .. As a result, the depth can be felt in three stages of the front face of the gate post cover, the front face of the character display body, and the front face of the gate post body, and the nameplate part can be made to appear more three-dimensional.

In the functional gate post of the present invention, it is also preferable to provide a nameplate illumination for illuminating the character display body through the gap (a gap between the gate post body and the gate post cover) in the gap. This makes it possible to improve the visibility of the nameplate portion, especially at night. This configuration can be particularly suitably adopted when the character display body is arranged near the central portion in the front-rear direction of the gap. This makes it possible to make the nameplate part look more three-dimensional by the shadow of the character display body.

In the functional gatepost of the present invention, when the above-mentioned lighting for the nameplate is provided, it is preferable that the character display body is glossy and the portion of the gatepost body located behind the character displaybody is dark color. As a result, when the nameplate illumination is turned on (at night, etc.), the illumination light from the nameplate illumination is reflected by the text display to illuminate the text display, and in combination with the dark color in the background. , It becomes possible to make the character display easier to read.

In the functional gatepost of the present invention, the gatepost cover may have only the front surface covering portion that covers the front surface of the gatepost main body, but in addition to the front surface covering portion, a side surface coating portion that covers the side surface of the gatepost main body is also provided. Preferably. Thereby, the appearance of the functional gate pillar can be made simple and have a sense of unity. In this case, it is preferable that the opening for exposing the nameplate is provided so as to extend from the front covering portion to the side covering portion of the gate post cover. This makes it possible to recognize the position of the nameplate part even when the functional gate post is viewed from the side. It also makes it possible to make the exterior of the functional gate pillar more stylish.

As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to provide a functional gate post that allows the nameplate portion to be viewed three-dimensionally without securing a large depth of the nameplate portion. In addition, it is possible to provide a functional gatepost that makes it easy to read the character display body that constitutes the nameplate part day or night.

It is the perspective view which showed an example of the functional gate pillar of this invention. FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a state in which the functional gate post of FIG. 1 is disassembled into a gate post main body and a gate post cover. It is the top view which showed the state which looked at the functional gate pillar of FIG. 1 from the upper direction. Near nameplate portion in the functional pillars of FIG. 1 is a sectional view showing a state taken along a X ₁ -X ₁ side in FIG.

A preferred embodiment of the functional gate pillar of the present invention will be described more specifically with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing an example of a functional gate pillar of the present invention. FIG. 2 is a perspective view showing a state in which the functional gate post of FIG. 1 is disassembled into a gate post main body 10 and a gate post cover 20. FIG. 3 is a plan view showing a state in which the functional gate post in FIG. 1 is viewed from above. FIG. 4 is a cross-sectional view showing a state in which the vicinity of the nameplate portion 11 in the functional gate post of FIG. 1 is cut along the X ₁ -X ₁ plane in the same figure. In FIGS. 1 to 3, the gate main body 10 is shown by hatching. Further, in FIG. 2, a part of the rain shield 70 on the upper side of the nameplate illumination 60 is cut away and drawn.

As shown in FIG. 2, the functional gatepost of the present embodiment includes a gatepost main body 10 and a gatepost cover 20 assembled from the front of the gatepost main body 10 to the front side of the gatepost main body 10. As shown in FIG. 3, the gate post cover 20 is in a state in which a portion of the gate post cover 20 that covers the front surface of the gate post body 10 (a front surface covering portion 21 described later) is spaced from the front surface of the gate post body 10 by a gap α to the front side. Will be placed. Further, in the present embodiment, as will be described later, the gate post cover 20 also has a portion that covers a side surface of the gate post main body 10 (a side surface covering portion 22 described below), and this side surface covering portion 22 is a side surface of the gate post main body 10. Are arranged with a gap β therebetween.

The gatepost main body 10 is provided with a nameplate portion 11, an intercom attachment portion 12, and a mail box accommodation portion 13 on a skeleton body (which is usually a hollow box-shaped structure) having a rectangular parallelepiped shape. .. The body of the main gate body 10 does not necessarily have to be a rectangular parallelepiped. The horizontal cross-sectional shape of the gate post body 10 may be a shape other than a rectangle, such as a parallelogram or an ellipse.

The nameplate portion 11 is a portion for displaying the name (usually, last name) of the resident of the house in which the functional gatepost is installed. As described above, the front side of the gatepost main body 10 is covered with the gatepost cover 20, and the nameplate portion 11 is provided with the functional gatepost through the opening provided in the gatepost cover 20 (the opening 23 for exposing the nameplate described later). It will be visible from the front. The nameplate portion 11 is provided on the front surface of the gate post body 10 at a height (usually a height of 100 to 150 cm from the ground) that is easily visible.

The intercom attachment part 12 is a part for attaching the intercom 30. Like the nameplate portion 11, the intercom attachment portion 12 is provided on the front surface of the gate post body 10. The intercom attachment portion 12 is usually provided at a height of 120 to 150 cm above the ground. In the present embodiment, the intercom attachment portion 12 is arranged on the front side of the gate post body 10 above the nameplate portion 11.

The mailbox receiver 13 is a part for housing the mailbox 40. On the right side surface of the main gate body 10, there is provided a mailing port 14 for mailing a delivery or the like inside the mail receiver 40. The mail receiving unit 13 is usually provided at a height of 60 to 110 cm above the ground. In the present embodiment, the postal receiving unit 13 is below the nameplate unit 11. An opening/closing door (not shown) for taking out the contents from the mail box 40 is provided on the rear surface side of the gate post body 10.

The body of the main gate body 10 is usually made of metal. In the present embodiment, the front wall portion (the plate-shaped portion forming the front surface of the gate post body 10) and the upper wall portion (the plate-shaped portion forming the top surface of the gate post body 10) are formed by bending or joining a metal plate. ), a left side wall portion (a plate-shaped portion forming the left side surface of the gate post body 10) and a right side wall portion (a plate-shaped portion forming the right side surface of the gate post body 10) are integrally formed into a box shape ( The front member, which has a box-like shape in which the rear surface and the lower surface are opened, and the rear wall portion made of a metal plate that covers the rear open portion of the front member, constitute the body of the gate main body 10. The rear wall portion is usually fixed to the front member with screws or the like. A partition wall portion that partitions the inner space horizontally or vertically may be provided in the inner space of the body of the gate main body 10.

The nameplate part 11 may be a plate whose name is only shown, but such a nameplate part 11 has a flat character portion and lacks interest. In this respect, in the present embodiment, the nameplate portion 11 is configured by the character display body 11a having a three-dimensional shape. The character display body 11a is made of a material such as a metal so as to have a specific character shape (in the example of FIG. 2, the shape of the letters "S", "A", "T", and "O" of the alphabet). It has been processed. Specifically, the character display body 11a is formed by cutting out a thick metal plate into the above-mentioned character shape. The character display body 11a may be formed by a method of bending a metal rod, a method of cutting a metal block, a method of integrating a plurality of metal members by welding or the like, in addition to the method of cutting a metal plate as described above. Obtainable.

The character display bodies 11a may be separated one by one, but in this case, it is necessary to attach the character display bodies 11a to the gate post body 10 one by one, which is troublesome. In this respect, in the present embodiment, the character display body 11a has a structure in which the respective characters are connected by a belt-shaped connection portion provided on the lower side thereof. As a result, the character display body 11a can be easily attached to the main gate body 10. The connecting portion that connects the character display bodies 11a is usually arranged at a portion that cannot be seen through the nameplate exposing opening 23 (a portion covered with the gatepost cover 20).

The character display body 11a may be provided in close contact with the front surface of the gate post body 10. However, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11a is arranged. Therefore, the character display body 11a is in a state of floating from the front surface of the gate post body 10 and is in a state of being set back from the rear surface of the gate post cover 10. This makes it possible to make the nameplate portion 11 look more three-dimensional.

The method of attaching the character display body 11a to the main body 10 of the gate is not particularly limited, but in the present embodiment, it is fixed using the fixture 50 shown in FIG. The fixture 50 includes a screw portion 51 provided rearward from the rear surface of the character display body 11a, a cylindrical spacer portion 52 which is inserted through the screw portion 51 to cover the outer peripheral portion of the screw portion 51 on the proximal end side, and a screw portion. It has a nut portion 53 that can be screwed into 51. With the tubular spacer portion 52 attached to the proximal end side of the screw portion 51 of the fixture 50, the distal end portion of the screw portion 51 is inserted into the through hole provided in the front wall portion of the gate post main body 10 to form the gate post. The character display body 11a is fixed by screwing the nut portion 53 onto the tip end side of the screw portion 51 protruding to the back side of the front wall portion of the main body 10. The clearance between the front surface of the gate post body 10 and the character display body 11a is kept by the tubular spacer portion 52. Hereinafter, the fixture 50 having this structure may be referred to as a “cylindrical spacer-type fixture”.

The above-mentioned fixture 50 can employ other structures besides the above-mentioned tubular spacer type. For example, in the tubular spacer type fixture 50, the tubular spacer portion 52 in the tubular spacer type fixture 50 is replaced with a female screw stud bolt provided rearward from the rear surface of the character display body 11a. The screw portion 51 and the nut portion 53 may be replaced with a screw having a head screwed from the rear with respect to the screw hole of the female screw stud bolt. Hereinafter, the fixture 50 having this structure may be referred to as a “female screw stud bolt type fixture”. The tubular spacer type fixture 50 requires three members, that is, the screw portion 51, the tubular spacer portion 52, and the nut portion 53, whereas the female screw stud bolt type fixture 50 has a female screw stud. Since only two members, a bolt and a screw with a head are required, the fixture 50 can be made simpler.

The gate post cover 10 is a member for covering the outer surface of the gate post body 10. This not only protects the gate post body 10, but also makes it possible to make the functional gate post look neat and finish the functional gate post with a stylish design, as shown in FIG. In order to obtain a functional gatepost with such a stylish design, it is preferable that the gatepost cover 10 has a simple design rather than a decorative design. In this embodiment, the gate post cover 20 is formed of a metal plate that is not particularly patterned. The surface of the metal plate forming the gate post cover 20 may be subjected to surface treatment such as rust prevention treatment.

The gate post cover 20 is not particularly limited as long as it can cover at least the front surface of the gate post body 10. In the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 2, the gate post cover 20 includes a front surface covering portion 21 that covers the front surface of the gate pillar main body 10 and a pair of left and right side surface covering portions 22 that covers each side surface of the gate post main body 10. ing. The left and right side surface coating portions 22 are provided so as to project rearward from the left edge portion and the right edge portion of the front surface coating portion 21, respectively. For this reason, the gate post cover 20 has a horizontal cross-section “U” shape. In the present embodiment, as described above, since the gate post body 10 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape, the gate post cover 20 has the above-described form, but the form of the gate post cover 20 depends on the form of the gate post body 10, and the like. It can be changed appropriately.

An opening 23 for exposing the nameplate is provided in a portion of the gatepost cover 20 that overlaps with the nameplate portion 11 of the gatepost body 10 in the front and back. The nameplate portion 11 of the gate post body 10 is visible through the nameplate exposing opening 23. The opening 23 for exposing the nameplate is not closed by a transparent plate such as a glass plate and is in a completely opened state. For this reason, sunlight, ambient light, and the like are not reflected in the vicinity of the nameplate exposing opening 23, and the nameplate portion 11 is easily visible.

The shape of the opening 23 for exposing the nameplate is not particularly limited, but if the shape is too complicated, it may not be possible to make the appearance of the functional gatepost look simple. In addition, the shape of the opening 23 for exposing the nameplate is easily noticed, and it becomes relatively difficult to see the character display body 11a. For this reason, it is preferable that the nameplate exposure opening 23 be formed in a simple shape. In this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the opening 23 for exposing the nameplate is formed in a horizontally long rectangular band shape. When the nameplate portion 11 is vertically written, the nameplate exposure opening 23 may be formed vertically long.

Further, as described above, in the present embodiment, when the gate post cover 20 is configured to have the pair of left and right side surface covering portions 22 in addition to the front surface covering portion 21, the opening 23 for exposing the nameplate is covered with the front surface. It is provided so as to reach one side edge (the right edge in the example of FIG. 1) of the portion 21, and is also extended to one side surface covering portion 22 (the right side surface covering portion 22 in the example of FIG. 1). .. This makes it possible to recognize the position of the nameplate portion 11 even when the functional gate post is viewed from the right side. Further, by providing the nameplate exposure opening 23 across the corner formed at the boundary between the front surface covering portion 21 and the side surface covering portion 22, it is possible to make the nameplate portion 11 look three-dimensional.

The size of the opening 23 for exposing the nameplate is also not particularly limited. However, if the opening 23 for exposing the nameplate is made too small, it is inevitable that the size of the character display body 11a visually recognized through the opening 23 for exposing the nameplate also needs to be made small, which makes it difficult to read the character display body 11a. There is a risk. Therefore, when the nameplate portion 11 is horizontally written, the vertical width of the nameplate exposure opening portion 23 is secured to be 20 mm or more. The lateral width of the nameplate exposure opening 23 when the nameplate portion 11 is written horizontally is usually 20 cm or more, preferably 30 cm or more, although it varies depending on the number of characters and the like. In this embodiment, the vertical width of the nameplate exposure opening 23 is about 25 mm, and the lateral width of the nameplate exposure opening 23 is about 35 cm.

As described above, in the gate post cover 20, the front surface covering portion 21 separates the clearance α (see FIG. 3) from the front surface of the gate pillar body 10, and the side surface covering portion 22 separates from the side surface of the gate pillar body 10. Assembled with β (see FIG. 3) separated. The method of attaching the gate pole cover 20 to the gate pole body 10 is not particularly limited, but if an irreversible attachment method such as welding is adopted, the attachment work will be troublesome. In addition, labor is required when removing the gate post cover 20 for maintenance of the gate post body 10 or replacement of the gate post cover 20. Therefore, the gate post cover 20 is preferably attached to the gate post body 10 by screwing or bolting.

In this case, a spacer for keeping the gap α and the gap β constant can be arranged in the gap α and the gap β. A fixture having the same structure as the fixture 50 (see FIG. 4) used when attaching the character display body 11a to the gate post body 10 as a fixture for attaching the gate post cover 20 to the gate post body 10 (of a cylindrical spacer type). If the fixture 50 or the female screw stud bolt type fixture 50 is used, the tubular spacer portion 52 (in the case of the tubular spacer type 50 fixture 50) of the fixture 50 or the female screw stud bolt (female screw stud). Since the bolt-type fixture 50 has a function as a spacer, it is not necessary to separately provide a spacer.

The widths of the gap α and the gap β (the distance from the outer surface of the gate post body 10 to the inner surface of the gate post cover 20; the same applies below) are not particularly limited, but if they are made too narrow, the outer surface of the gate post body 10 and the outer surface of the gate post cover 20 will be described. There is a risk that the step difference between and will become small, and the nameplate portion 11 will be difficult to see in three dimensions. Therefore, the widths of the gap α and the gap β are preferably 10 mm or more, and more preferably 13 mm or more. On the other hand, if the widths of the gap α and the gap β are too wide, the nameplate portion 11 may be too deep and the nameplate portion 11 may be difficult to visually recognize. In addition, the dimensions (particularly the left-right width and the front-back width) of the functional gate pillar may become unnecessarily large. Therefore, the widths of the gap α and the gap β are preferably 50 mm or less, and more preferably 30 mm or less. In this embodiment, the widths of the gap α and the gap β are both about 15 to 16 mm.

As described above, in the functional gate post of the present invention, the nameplate 11 can be seen three-dimensionally without securing a large depth of the nameplate 11, and in addition, the character display 11a constituting the nameplate 11 can be displayed. Is easy to read. In this embodiment, in order to make the nameplate portion 11 look more three-dimensional and to make the character display body 11a easier to read, the following measures are further taken.

That is, as shown in FIG. 4, the nameplate illumination 60 is provided in the gap α between the gate post body 10 and the gate post cover 20. The nameplate illumination 60 is for illuminating the character display body 11a through the gap α. This makes it possible to improve the visibility of the nameplate portion 11. In addition, in the present embodiment, since the character display body 11a is arranged near the center of the gap α in the front-rear direction, the irradiation light from the nameplate illumination 60 enters not only the front surface side of the character display body 11a but also the rear surface side thereof. .. For this reason, a person who looks at the nameplate unit 11 can easily see the character display unit 11a in a state of being lifted up, conscious of the space on the rear side of the character display unit 11a, and in combination with the shadow of the character display unit 11a. It is possible to make 11 look more three-dimensional.

Although the incandescent lamp may be used as the nameplate illumination 60, it is preferable to use an LED light source. As a result, it is possible to save energy and extend the life of the nameplate illumination 60. Also in this embodiment, the linear illumination using the LED light source is used as the nameplate illumination 60. By making the nameplate illumination 60 linear, it is possible to arrange the nameplate illumination 60 along the nameplate portion 11 in a longitudinal shape and illuminate the nameplate portion 11 evenly. The nameplate illumination 60 may be manually turned on or off, but may be automatically turned on or off depending on the surrounding illuminance or time.

The nameplate illumination 60 may be provided on any of the upper side, the lower side, the left side and the right side of the nameplate portion 11 as long as it is within the gap α. However, in the case where the nameplate unit 11 is horizontally written, if the nameplate illumination 60 is provided on the left side or the right side of the nameplate unit 11, the irradiation light from the nameplate illumination 60 hardly reaches the entire character display body 11a. Further, when the nameplate illumination 60 is provided below the nameplate section 11, dust or the like may be caught on the light emitting surface (upper surface) of the nameplate illumination 60. Therefore, the nameplate illumination 60 is preferably provided on the upper side of the nameplate unit 11.

Also in this embodiment, the nameplate illumination 60 is provided on the upper side of the nameplate portion 11, and the irradiation light from the nameplate illumination 60 is emitted from the upper side of the character display body 11a and strikes the front surface of the character display body 11a. The emitted light is reflected on the front surface of the character display body 11a and is emitted forward from the nameplate exposure opening 23. In this embodiment, in order to make it easier for the irradiation light to be reflected by the character display body 11a, the character display body 11a is made to have a gloss color (in the present embodiment, the metallic material forming the character display body 11a is made to have the same glossiness as it is). The color is not specified.) Examples of the glossy color include silver and gold.

On the other hand, the front surface of the gate post body 10 located on the rear side of the character display body 11a has a dark color. Examples of dark colors include black, dark gray, and dark brown. As described above, by making the background portion of the character display body 11a dark and making the character display body 11a glossy, the character display body 11a itself is illuminated and the contrast between the character display body 11a and the background is improved. Since it stands out, the character display body 11a is easier to read. In addition, the character display body 11a is more likely to be seen three-dimensionally.

By the way, when there is a gap α between the gatepost main body 10 and the gatepost cover 20, if rainwater or the like may enter the gap α, rainwater or the like hits the nameplate illumination 60 and the nameplate illumination 60 is turned on. There is a risk of breakdown. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the upper side of the nameplate illumination 60 is covered with the rain shield 70 so that rainwater does not hit the nameplate illumination 60. The nameplate lighting 60 is attached to the lower surface of the rain shield 70. However, if waterproof lighting is used as the nameplate lighting 60, the rain shield 70 can be omitted and the structure can be simplified.

A lighting attachment opening 15 is provided on the front surface of the gate main body 10 below the rain shield 70. The illumination 60 for the nameplate can be attached and detached through the opening 15 for attaching the illumination. The lighting mounting opening 15 may be opened and closed by a lid (not shown) such as a movable plate mounted near the lighting mounting opening 15. The space on the back side of the nameplate portion 11 inside the gate post body 10 can be effectively utilized as a wiring space for the nameplate illumination 60, the intercom 30 (see FIG. 2), and the like.
