Japanese Utility Model Registration No. 3214074

  In the reflective marking device according to Patent Literature 1, installation grooves must be formed on a construction surface such as a road for installation. Therefore, the installation cost is increased due to the engraving work, and the structure and material of the road and the like are increased. For this reason, there is a problem that the engraving work cannot be performed and the installation becomes impossible.

  The present invention has been made in consideration of such problems, and has as an object to provide a reflective marking device that has a low installation cost and does not become impossible to be installed due to a structure such as a road or a material. I do.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the reflection marker according to the present invention employs the means described in each claim of the utility model registration claim.

  That is, in the first aspect, a sheet-like reflecting material for reflecting the illumination of the vehicle and a cover material in which the reflecting material is accommodated are provided, and the cover material allows the illumination of the vehicle and the reflected light of the reflecting material to pass through. In the reflective marking device that can be used, the cover material is composed of a flat base that faces the construction surface of the road, sidewalk, or curb, and a housing that houses the reflective material and can be raised and lowered with respect to the base. It is characterized in that it is formed in a uniform manner.

  In this means, the covering material is provided with a flat base facing the construction surface of the road or sidewalk or curb, so that the covering surface is not formed on the construction surface of the road or sidewalk or curb without engraving the installation groove. The base of the material can be fixed and installed by appropriate fixing means with the base facing each other.

  According to a second aspect of the present invention, in the reflective marker of the first aspect, a storage groove is provided for allowing a base portion of the cover material to be slidably inserted and allowing the cover material to pass through the storage portion, and the bottom surface is constructed of a road, a sidewalk, or a curb.

  Hereinafter, embodiments for implementing the reflective marker according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

  1 to 3 show a first embodiment of a mode for carrying out the reflective marker according to the present invention.

  The first example is composed of a reflective material 1 and a cover material 2 as shown in FIGS.

  The reflective material 1 reflects a vehicle illumination by mixing a microprism into a base made of a synthetic resin material, or mixes a fluorescent agent into a base made of a synthetic resin material to emit fluorescent light in accordance with the vehicle lighting. It is covered with a transparent cover layer if necessary, and is formed in a sheet shape. As for reflection and light emission, a combination of both functions may be used. The reflective material 1 is formed in a sheet shape in which the corner of the insertion tip (upper end in the drawing) is chamfered in a curved shape in order to facilitate the accommodation in the cover material 2, and a material having a different color of reflected light is used. Two sheets are prepared.

  In the cover material 2, the base 21, the housing 22, and the hinge 23 are integrally formed of a soft synthetic resin material. In addition, the cover member 2 has weather resistance in consideration of outdoor installation, and has flexibility that allows the housing portion 22 to be raised and lowered with respect to the base portion 21. As the material of the cover member 2, for example, a silicon-based resin is selected.

  The base 21 of the cover member 2 is formed in a flat plate shape facing a construction surface of a road or the like (road, sidewalk, curb). Screw holes 21b for installation are formed through four corners of the rectangular main body 21a.

  The accommodation portion 22 of the cover member 2 is formed upright so as to extend in the longitudinal direction substantially at the center of the upper surface of the rectangular main body portion 21a of the base portion 21 in the short direction, and has an angle θ of about 10 degrees with respect to the base portion 21. In the short direction. A reflective material receiving slit into which two reflective materials 1 are inserted and stored at the center in the thickness direction inside the main body portion 22a formed in an irregular shape designed like an animal face (head). A cutout 22b is formed. Note that the reflective material accommodation slit 22b is cut to the bottom surface of the main body 21a of the base 21 of the cover material 2. The main body 22a is provided with a window 22c through which the reflection material 1 accommodated in the reflection material accommodation slit 22b faces to the outside so as to penetrate the front and rear surfaces. The window 22c has long holes arranged on both sides of the round hole, and is designed like the eyes and nose of an animal.

  The hinge portion 23 of the cover member 2 has a thin end at the base 21 side end of the housing portion 22 and extends in the length direction of the housing portion 22.

  In the first example, as shown in FIG. 2, two reflective materials 1 are respectively inserted into a reflective material receiving slit 22 b cut into the bottom surface of the base 21 of the cover material 2 (overlapping). The attachment of the reflective material 1 and the cover material 2 is completed. Therefore, the assembling work is easy and inexpensive manufacturing becomes possible. In order to facilitate insertion of the reflective material 1 into the cover material 2 and to ensure that the inserted reflective material 1 is held in the reflective material receiving slit 22b, the cover material 2 is made flexible and elastic. Is preferred. When the reflection material 1 has a single-sided reflection function, the reflection surfaces of the two reflection materials 1 stacked and accommodated in the reflection material accommodation slit 22b are respectively positioned on the front and rear sides. It turns to the window part 22c side.

  In order to install the first example, as shown in FIG. 3, the bottom surface of the main body 21 a of the base 21 of the cover 2 is brought into contact with the construction surface of the road R or the like, and the washer W is screwed into the screw hole 21 b of the base 21. The main body 21a of the base 21 is fastened and fixed to the construction surface of the road R, etc. At this time, the plug P can be used by digging a screw hole H in the construction surface of the road R or the like. Further, an adhesive may be applied to the bottom surface of the main body 21a of the base 21 of the cover material 2 in advance.

  At the time of this installation, the front side of the housing portion 22 of the cover member 2 (the angle formed by the base portion 21 of the housing portion 22 with the base 21 in FIG. 3 is an obtuse angle) is directed in the traveling direction of the vehicle. It should be noted that whether to face the traveling direction of the vehicle or to provide a small angle is appropriately selected in consideration of the reflection efficiency and the like.

  In the state where the first example is installed, since the reflective material 1 faces the outside from the window 22c of the housing part 22 of the cover material 2, the illumination of the vehicle and the reflected light of the reflective material 1 pass directly. As a result, the function of reflecting and emitting light corresponding to the illumination of the vehicle can be reliably achieved. At this time, the color of the reflection of the reflective material 1 is different between the front and rear sides of the housing portion 22 of the cover material 2, so that the light sign function is enhanced and, for example, it is also effective in preventing reverse running of the vehicle. . In addition, from the designed shape of the storage portion 22 of the cover member 2 and the window portion 22c, visual interest can be aroused. The tilt angle of the housing 22 of the cover member 2 is appropriately set in consideration of the efficiency of reflection and light emission of the reflective material 1, prevention of dirt, and prevention of accumulation of water.

  Further, when the vehicle collides, as shown in FIG. 3, the housing portion 22 of the cover member 2 is tilted rearward to reduce the impact of the collision. At this time, since the reflection material 1 is covered by the housing portion 22 of the cover member 2, it is possible to prevent the vehicle from directly contacting the reflection material 1. For this reason, damage due to vehicle collision is sufficiently avoided.

  After the vehicle has passed, the housing portion 22 of the cover member 2 is independently erected and restored from the characteristics of the material.

  Regarding the undulation of the storage portion 22 of the cover material 2, the hinge portion 23 assists the operation, so that a smooth operation is guaranteed.

  4 to 6 show a second embodiment of the embodiment for implementing the reflective marker according to the present invention.

  The second example includes an installation auxiliary member 3 in addition to the first example.

  The installation assisting member 3 includes a divisible main body 31 formed in a frustum shape and a reflector 32.

  The main body 31 is provided with a T-shaped storage groove 31a. The storage groove 31 a is formed so as to be dug into the inside, and the first groove 31 aa into which the base 21 of the cover material 2 can be slid and inserted, and the upper surface is cut into an elongated shape to allow the cover material 2 to pass through the storage portion 22. And a second groove 31ab. The first groove 31aa and the second groove 31ab of the storage groove 31a are opened at one end of the main body 31. A fine concave-convex structure is provided on a bottom surface 31b of the main body 31 facing a construction surface such as a road. Further, screw holes 31 c corresponding to the screw holes 21 b of the base 21 of the cover member 2 are provided on the upper surface and the bottom surface of the main body 31.

  The reflection plate 32 has a sheet-like or plate-like shape attached or embedded on a slope of the main body 31 and has a function of reflecting at least illumination of a vehicle.

  In the second example, as shown in FIG. 5, the base 21 of the cover member 2 is inserted into the first groove 31aa of the storage groove 31a of the main body 31, and the storage section 22 of the cover material 2 is inserted into the storage groove 31a of the main body 31. By projecting from the second groove 31ab, the cover member 2 and the installation auxiliary member 3 can be assembled.

  According to the second example, as shown in FIG. 6, after the main body 31 is fixed to the construction surface of the road R or the like with an adhesive C, an installation step of assembling the cover material 2 to the main body 31 may be performed. it can. Therefore, it is possible to prevent the reflective material 1 and the cover material 2 from being uselessly damaged in the installation work. By assembling the anchor pin A into the screw hole 31c of the main body 31 and the screw hole 21b of the base 21 of the cover member 2, the assembling strength between the installation assisting member 3 and the cover member 2 can be increased.

  In the second example, the same operation and effect as those of the first example can be obtained for the cover member 2.

  As described above, in addition to the illustrated examples, the number of the windows 22c of the accommodating portion 22 of the cover member 2 may be four or more or two or less, or may be a shape (an arrow, a letter, or the like) other than a circular hole. is there.

  Further, it is possible to select a material having a buffer structure such as an air layer as the reflection material 1.

  Further, the cover member 2 can be formed of a transparent or translucent material.
