The present invention relates to a road marking device installed on the road to inform the location information of a road, a building, or a street name for the convenience of a driver or a pedestrian. The present invention relates to a road marking device that has a cylindrical shape and is firmly supported by a support so that it can maintain a very stable installation state against external forces such as strong winds and can be installed easily regardless of the shape of the support.

In general, traffic signs for securing safe and smooth road traffic by informing drivers and pedestrians of road hazards on the edge of the road, and various information related to the road for the convenience of drivers and pedestrians, such as roads Various road signs, such as guide signs for indicating the direction of travel or location information on the street or place, are installed.

Such road signs are usually installed at appropriate heights on the side of the road so that drivers or pedestrians can recognize the messages, and can support signs in the form of cantilevers.

In the most common form, a hanger is installed horizontally by a band clamp on the upper end of the post to hang the sign on the hanger or directly attach the sign to the band clamp. If the signs are easy to turn around and point to the wrong place, as well as when installing multiple guide plates on a single shore, it is necessary to install a plurality of hangers spaced apart, the installation is very cumbersome and greatly reduces the city view.

In particular, since the sign is composed only of a thin plate or has a reinforcement frame having an appropriate diameter only on the upper and lower ends of the plate-shaped body, the physical strength is weak, so it is easily deformed or damaged by external force.

In order to solve such a problem, for example, in the Republic of Korea Patent Registration No. 0245545 and Utility Model Registration No. 0225257, a plurality of assembling grooves are formed radially on the outer periphery of the shore to selectively After assembling and fixing the sign holders, road signs are provided so that a plurality of signs can be easily and beautifully installed on one prop as needed by bolting the signs into the channel of the sign holder. Do.

However, these prior art also has a structural strength is still vulnerable because the sign holder channel holds only a thin body portion except the reinforcing frame of the sign in the state that the sign is made of a thin plate having a reinforcement frame only on the upper and lower ends of the body. Due to the external force applied by the physical contact is very likely to bend the sign.

On the other hand, the applicant to form a plurality of dovetail (dovetail) assembling grooves on the outer periphery of the support to solve this problem, and fixed to the assembly groove of the support by inserting a sign fixture on the channel having a dovetail-type assembly protrusion on one side Later, a road sign device consisting of a sign-shaped tube and a sign fastening sphere was proposed as Korean Patent Registration No. 10-070572.

However, in the case of the applicant's prior registered patent, regardless of the number of signs to be installed, not only have to process a plurality of assembling grooves in the support, but also provided with a plurality of sign fixing fixtures according to the number of signs, each fastening to the support There is a disadvantage that the structure is complicated and the installation is complicated.

In addition, in order to mount the signboard, the assembly groove must be formed in the support, so it can be installed only in a specific type of support. Therefore, it is impossible to install it in the form of the support (general round, square, etc.) and the sign support that is already installed. This can be complicated by the need to replace new specific types of landlords and enormous replacement costs.

The present invention was devised to solve the above-mentioned problems. The sign is formed in a cylindrical shape having a certain thickness, and has a high structural strength, and is firmly supported by a prop, thereby preventing physical damage from strong winds and the outside. Not only can it be easily deformed or change its position, but also maintains a very stable installation condition. In particular, any type of prop can be easily installed regardless of the type of post. The purpose is to provide a road marking device that can be easily installed and replaced with.

Another object of the present invention is to provide a simple and concise installation of a plurality of signs for a single post as needed, without forming a plurality of assembling grooves on the shore, and the road marking device is very easy to install To provide.

Road marking apparatus according to the present invention to achieve the above objects, the support is settled on the base concrete embedded in the ground; A sign supporting holder having a tubular shape and fixedly coupled to an outer circumference of the upper end of the strut, and having at least one sign fixing plug formed to be vertically long while having a predetermined left and right width on the outer circumference; A cylindrical sign having both ends of a hollow plate having a predetermined thickness, and having one opening inserted into the sign fixing plug; It characterized in that it comprises a; closing side plate for closing the other opening of the sign.

According to one preferred feature of the present invention, the flanges are protruded on the front and rear edges of the upper and lower surfaces of the cylindrical signage to form a drainage groove on the upper surface of the signage to minimize the damage of the signage due to rain.

According to another preferred feature of the present invention, the sign and the sign support holder and the closing side plate is configured by extruding aluminum, which is lightweight and excellent in corrosion resistance.

Accordingly, the present invention has a high physical strength as compared to the conventional sign plate is composed of a thin plate as well as a very strong support for the strut so that it is not easily deformed or changed in the installation position for physical contact from the outside, very stable installation state In particular, any type of prop can be easily installed in a cylindrical sign regardless of the type of the prop, so that the existing road sign can be easily replaced with a cylindrical sign.

In addition, even when it is necessary to install a plurality of signs on one shore, it is possible to simply install the cylindrical signs without forming a separate assembly groove on the shore.

Therefore, the present invention has a great effect on improving the field viewability and stability of the road marking device.

Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described a preferred embodiment of the road marking apparatus according to the present invention in detail.

1 to 4, the road sign device according to the present invention is a support 10 is installed perpendicular to the road side, the sign support holder 20 mounted on the upper end of the support 10, and the sign support holder ( It consists of a cylindrical sign 30 fixed to 20 and a closing side plate 40 for closing the tip opening of the sign 30.

The strut 10 is composed of, for example, a pipe having a circular cross section, and has a base 11 at its lower end, and fastens with a nut to an anchor bolt of a foundation concrete (not shown) that is placed underground. This is installed perpendicular to the road side.

The sign support holder 20 is a cylindrical body 21 which is slidably coupled to the outer periphery of the upper end of the support 10 and integrally fixed to the support 10, and has an appropriate length protruding radially from the outer periphery of the body 21. Is formed is composed of a sign fixing plug 22 for fixing the sign 30 combined.

The body 21 is integral to the support 10 by being fastened to the support 10 by means of bolts 24 with screw holes 23 respectively provided at appropriate positions, for example, upper and lower sides of the sign fixing plug 22. Is fixed. Accordingly, in the axial direction, a thick portion 20a is formed at the screw hole 23 formed position of the body 21 so as to protrude slightly to the outside to increase the fastening force with the support 10 and to be formed relatively thicker than the other portions. It is provided.

Of course, the body of the sign support holder 20 may be configured to be thick enough, but in this case, the sign support holder 20 becomes unnecessarily heavy, thereby degrading handling and acting as a factor of cost increase. As shown in the drawing, only a portion where the screw hole 23 is formed is formed to have a predetermined width.

The sign fixing plug 22 has a substantially rectangular shape that is formed long in a vertical direction with a predetermined width to the left and right so as to be fitted into one opening of the sign 30. On both sides of the sign fixing plug 22, a plurality of screw holes 25 for fastening the sign 30 are formed.

The sign fixing plug 22 may also be configured in a hollow barrel shape or a channel form, although not shown, as shown for cost reduction along with the weight reduction of the sign support holder 20.

Such a sign support holder 20 is manufactured by extruding aluminum which is lightweight and excellent in corrosion resistance.

On the other hand, since aluminum is a soft non-ferrous metal, when the bolt 24 is fastened to the support 10 through the screw hole 23 of the sign support holder 20, the wind or the like is applied to the sign 30 after a long time. Due to the external force, the screw hole 23 of the sign support holder 20, which is relatively weaker than the bolt 24, is easily worn, and thus, the fastening force of the sign support holder 20 with respect to the support 10 is weakened, resulting in flow. Of course, in severe cases, the bolt 24 may be dislodged.

Accordingly, so-called helical coils 27 made of hard metal are coupled to the screw holes 23 of the sign support holder 20 so that both inner and outer circumferences have a screw shape.

The helical coil 27 is a coil of a metal steel wire having a rhombus-shaped cross section. When the bolts 24 are coupled, the respective windings are minutely expanded in the axial direction, and the threaded portions of the bolts 24 are formed by their resilient elasticity. By being in close contact with each other, the fastening force is increased to reliably prevent the loosening of the general bolt 24.

The helical coil 27 is preferably made of stainless steel having excellent mechanical strength and corrosion resistance.

Here, the sign fixing plug 22 of the sign support holder 20 varies in number depending on the number of signs 30 to be installed. That is, as illustrated in FIGS. 5A to 5D, two to four sign fixing plugs 22 may be provided at a predetermined angle interval on the outer circumference of one sign support holder 20, but not separately illustrated. When four or more signs 30 are installed on the support 10, four or more signs fixing plugs 22 may be provided.

The sign 30 is composed of a hollow plate having an appropriate thickness, and has a rectangular cross section of a rectangular cylinder. This sign 30 is also made of aluminum extrusion, so that both ends of the sign 30 are open.

Preferably, the upper surface of the sign 30 (which may be formed on both the upper and lower surfaces as shown in the example) may be used to prevent rainwater from flowing down to the cover surfaces (front and rear) of the sign 30. A drain groove 31 is formed in the circumferential direction thereof. The drain groove 31 is configured by projecting the flanges 32 of appropriate height upward on the front, front and rear edges of the sign 30, respectively.

In addition, a plurality of fastening holes 33 for fastening with the sign fixing plug 22 and the bolt 34 are formed at both sides of the fixed end side of the sign 30 so as to correspond to the screw holes 25 of the sign fixing plug 22. Is formed.

On the other hand, on the surface (front and back) of the sign 30, the reflection paper and film in which predetermined | prescribed cover content was written are attached.

The closing side plate 40 may be assembled in the free end opening of the sign 30 in a number of ways, but preferably both stationary traces are not exposed to the outside for the appearance of the sign.

To this end, the closing side plate 40 is provided with one pair of fitting pieces 41 which are fitted into the opening of the sign 30 on one side and are protruded in a spaced state in close contact with the inner and front inner surfaces thereof, for example, a curable synthetic resin such as silicone or Homica. It is attached by the adhesive 43. At this time, after the attachment side plate 40 is formed an arc-shaped bending portion (bending part: 42) formed in the convex inwards at the tip of each fitting piece 41 so that it is not easily separated from the sign 30 It is preferable that the adhesive 43 is cured in a state filled in the groove 42a of the bending part 42.

That is, by forming the bending part 42 which is bent inward (away from the inner surface of the cover plate) at the tip of the fitting piece 41 of the finishing side plate 40, the adhesive ( 43) After the application of the finishing side plate 40 is inserted, a part of the adhesive 43 is pushed together by the fitting piece 41 and filled into the groove 42a of the bending part 42, and hardened in this state. When the bending part 42 of the fitting piece 41 enters the groove 42a and is caught by the adhesive 43 cured in the protruding state, it is possible to maintain a firm attachment state that is not easily detached.

The remaining sign 50 is a pillar tower, 60 is a protective cover to protect the lower end of the pillar (10).

Next, the installation process of the road marking device according to the present invention configured as described above is as follows.

First, the closing side plate 40 is fixed to one opening of the sign 30 with an adhesive 43. In this state, the cylindrical body 21 of the sign support holder 20 is fitted to the outer periphery of the upper end of the support 10, and then connected to the support 10 and the bolt 24 through the screw holes 23 formed in the upper and lower parts thereof. Tighten.

Then, the sign support holder 20 is firmly fixed to the outer periphery of the support 10, and thus the sign fixing plug 22 of the sign support holder 20 protrudes radially from the upper end of the support 10. do.

The sign 30 is assembled so that the sign opening plug 22 of the sign support holder 20 thus mounted is inserted into the other opening of the sign 30 having a cylindrical shape, and then both sides of the sign 30 are fixed to the fixed end. The bolt 34 is coupled to the screw hole 25 of the sign fixing plug 22 through the fastening hole 33 formed in the completed installation.

At this time, when it is necessary to install a plurality of signs (at least two) at the same time in one support 10, as shown in Figures 5a to 5d, signs to be installed on one body 21 ( Select the sign support holder 20 having a plurality of sign fixing plugs 22 corresponding to the number of 30) to be fixed to the support 10, and then to each of the sign fixing plugs 22 as described above. By installing the sign 30, the plurality of signs 30 can be mounted on one support 10 at the same time.

In this way, the present invention can be installed to the support (10) as well as a relatively simple operation, as well as a plurality of signs 30 can be installed at the same time in multiple directions with respect to one support (10) as needed. Will be.

In addition, since the sign 30 is made of a cylindrical having a predetermined thickness and fastened by inserting the sign fixing plug 22 of the sign support holder 20 fixedly coupled to the support 10, the sign 30 for the support 10. ) As well as the physical strength of the sign 30 itself is greatly increased, and bending deformation due to external force such as contact from the outside or strong wind is effectively prevented.

In particular, since the sign support holder 20 is formed in a tubular shape and is concentrically coupled to the outer circumference of the support 10, it can be easily installed on any type of support 10 without regard to the shape of the support 10, as in the prior art. Not only do not need to process a plurality of assembling grooves in the support (10) is provided with a number of sign fixtures in accordance with the number of signs 30 to be installed, there is no need to install each, sign installation is very easy.

Accordingly, it is possible to easily replace and install only the sign 30 in a cylindrical shape as well as the newly installed road marking device.

In addition, since the drain groove 31 is formed on the upper surface of the sign 30, rain or snow does not flow down to the front and rear surface of the sign 30, the sign 30 is not easily contaminated, and each component is It is made of aluminum, so it does not generate oxidative corrosion due to snow or rain, so it can maintain the appearance permanently, which is very advantageous in terms of maintenance.

On the other hand, Figure 6 schematically shows another embodiment according to the present invention, this embodiment is a fixed end side of the sign 30 to both sides of the sign fixing plug 22 to the body 21 of the sign support holder 20 The edge flange 26 surrounding both ends of the end is further configured.

In this embodiment of the configuration, both edges of the fixed end side of the sign 30 are inserted between the sign fixing plug 22 and the edge flange 26 so that the sign 30 can be more beautifully and stably supported.

As described above, according to the road marking apparatus according to the present invention, the sign can be installed very easily on the support, but the sign itself and the support strength of the sign on the support are very excellent, so that bending deformation due to external force such as contact or strong wind can be achieved. Can be suppressed as much as possible.

In particular, since the sign support holder is formed in a tubular shape and is coupled to the outer periphery of the prop, it is possible to easily install the cylindrical sign in any type of prop, regardless of the form of the prop. Can be installed alternately.

In addition, in the case where it is necessary to install a plurality of signs on one shore, unlike the conventional method, several cylindrical signs can be installed at the same time without forming a separate assembly groove, and each component is made of aluminum and oxidized. No corrosion occurs.

Therefore, the present invention has an excellent effect that greatly contributes to the improvement of the site and stability of the road marking device, and to the increase of life and ease of maintenance.
