Description

  The present invention relates to a visual guidance sign attached to a rod-like mounting object such as a pillar of a guardrail installed beside a roadway or a sidewalk or a blocking fence of a railroad crossing.

  In order to alert the user to prevent accidents, various types of gaze guidance signs are used in guardrails or railroad crossings which are installed beside the driveways in the mountains.

  For example, Patent Document 1 describes a line-of-sight guide signpost in which a reflective tape is wound around a cylindrical pole at a constant interval and attached. However, winding a large number of reflective tapes is time-consuming, and at the same time, careful work is required to wind a certain space. Therefore, Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 describe a line-of-sight guidance signpost in which a reflective tape is obliquely applied to a cylindrical pole, and spirally wound and attached. If it is this, it can wind with one tape and space will become almost constant.
