The present invention relates to a road safety facility, and more particularly, to a lane control rod disposed vertically along a lane of a road to prevent lane separation / marking and unauthorized entry and exit of a vehicle.

The lanes marked along the road have a variety of effects, such as ensuring smooth flow of the vehicle and determining the source of the cause in the event of a vehicle contact.However, if each driver does not comply with the traffic rules, the lane alone may cause traffic jams. The phenomenon cannot be eliminated.

In particular, frequent traffic jams are the main cause of lane interruption.For example, excessively attempted at the end of a point where lane changes are allowed without changing lanes in advance in the left turning lane, in the entry lane, or in the exit lane. Cutting in.

In order to prevent such immoral vehicle interruption, lane regulation bars are erected at regular intervals along the lanes marked on the road.

This type of lane regulating rod has a basic structure of a rod standing on the ground and a base for firmly standing the rod on the ground by bolts.As a further subdivision, the rod and base are formed in one piece. The divided type can be divided into two types, and the integrated type and the divided type can be divided into a variable type that can be conducted to the ground when the rod is in contact with a vehicle, and a fixed type that cannot be reversed.

Examples of fixed integrated types include Korea Utility Model Registration No. 226934, Korea Utility Model Registration No. 336602, Korea Utility Model Registration No. 336623, Korea Utility Model Registration No. 385869, Korea Utility Model Registration No. 415557, Korea Utility Model Registration No. 429256 and Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 2006-98481, respectively, but this type is not easily adopted when it comes in contact with the vehicle, and damages the surface of the contacted vehicle, causing damage. .

The variable integral type is a structure in which the rod and the base are formed as one, and the actuator is disposed inside so that the rod can be inverted and then rebuilt. This type includes Korean Utility Model Registration No. 1998-3068 and Korean Utility Model Registration No. 0336623. Although known as arc, there is a disadvantage that the conduction and restoration of the rod is not smooth.

The fixed split type is a structure in which the rod and the base are separately formed and then assembled, and Korean Utility Model Publication No. 1998-3069 is known, but this type also has a problem of having a fixed integrated type and is hardly employed at present. .

The variable split type has a structure in which an actuator is connected between a separately formed rod and a base, and the actuator is made of one or both of a spring and a rubber elastic material. Korea Utility Model Registration No. 227504, Korea Utility Model Registration No. 403523, Korea Utility Model Registration No. 414622 and Korean Utility Model Registration No. 425204, respectively.

This type of lane regulating rod has the advantage of not damaging the rod as well as the vehicle surface because the rod in contact with the vehicle is conducted to the ground by the action of the actuator.

However, if the rod is repeatedly conducted to the ground and erected, fatigue accumulates in the actuator and the elastic force is deteriorated. Therefore, the arrangement state is deteriorated because the rod is not completely restored to the standing posture.

The problem of this variable split type is that the deformation part of the actuator is caused to be weak for a while when the rod is inverted.

In other words. Regardless of the material or structure of the actuator, the actuator is stretched when the rod is inverted, and the stretched portion becomes a weak part easily deformed even with a slight external force.

In addition, if the rod is pushed against the wheels of the vehicle, it is completely detached from the base and can be broken irreparably.

The present invention is to improve the structure to allow the actuator to be compressed when the rod is inverted and to be variable in length according to the compression of the actuator by connecting the rod and the base with a binding material to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems fundamentally The purpose is to provide a regulatory rod.

In the above configuration, the central portion of the base can be molded into a shape rising from the surroundings.

In addition, the actuator and the pressure plate may be modified in a configuration that is accommodated in the inner space of the swivel through a separately formed liner.

The rod may have a double structure by an inner tube made of urethane and an outer tube made of polycarbonate, in which case a high-brightness reflective paper may be disposed between the inner tube and the outer tube, and the upper end of the rod may be It can be deposited with a rainproof cover with an outward shield that accommodates the top of the tube and the outer tube.

The connection of the base and the binding material may be connected by inserting one end of the binding material to the center of the base in the process of insert injection of the base.

In addition, the stopper may further include a rubber buffer layer on the bottom surface which comes into contact with the top of the swivel, and this configuration is effective to dampen the impact applied to the top of the swivel.

The connection between the base and the binding material may be performed through a separate binding material fixing member, and a suitable binding material fixing member includes a hole through which one end of the binding material penetrates and a side of the hole. It can be made into a configuration consisting of a set screw that is screwed in to fix the binding material.

In the case of employing the binding member fixing member, the base may further include a configuration in which a through hole formed at a center thereof extends to a receiving space formed wider.

In addition, the present invention is a lane control rod in the configuration in which the rod indicating the lane to the center of the upper surface of the base that is fixed to the ground by the anchor erected erected, the contact between the rod and the base through a swivel formed with a rounded bottom In addition, the rod, the base and the swivel are integrally connected by a binding material extending through each center and the pressure plate is attached and fixed in the middle of the binding material passing through the inner space of the swivel, but the elasticity of the actuator accommodated in the space Arranged so that the swivel is always automatically centered at the top center of the base to allow the rod to stand vertically, while a stopper is attached to and fixed to the end of the binding material extending through the swivel into the rod. Spaced top Is, there is a movement distance of a pressure plate relative to the external force applied to the rod may be implemented to be defined by the predetermined distance through the configuration in which the rod can be separated leaving a certain distance from the base and arranged to be.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments according to the accompanying drawings.

The basic structure of the lane stop rod according to the present invention is depicted in FIG.

Referring to FIG. 1, the rod 2 and the base 4 are assembled after being formed separately.

The rod 2 is in the form of a hollow tube, and the rain prevention cover 6 is fitted on one side (upper end), and the swivel 8 is fitted on the other side (lower end).

The base 4 connected to the rod 2 has a plurality of buried holes 14 having a through hole 10 at the center of the upper surface, and an anchor 12 fitted around the through hole 10. It is a structure formed for every predetermined position.

In some cases, the lower side of the through hole 10 may be formed as a wider storage space 16.

The swivel 8 has a certain shape of space 18 having a central hole 17 at one side thereof, and an actuator 20 is accommodated therein, and the outer bottom thereof is the center of the base 4. It is formed by the rounding 19 so that friction does not occur at the time of contact.

In this embodiment, the actuator 20 shows a spring, but other materials may be employed as long as the material and structure provide complete and rapid resilience. For example, a rubber elastic material or a space isolated from the outside may be employed. A simple pneumatic means such as a piston and a rod disposed so that the piston can move back and forth with the pressure change of the pneumatic pressure may be employed.

The rounding 19 formed on the outer underside of the swivel 8 exhibits an automatic centering action which causes the rod 2 to assume a full standing posture at the center of the base 4.

In addition, if the center portion of the base 4 is formed to rise above its periphery, the contact surface with the rounding 19 is reduced to a minimum, so that the automatic centering action of the swivel 8 can be more reliably shown.

In the lane regulating rod according to the present invention, the rod 2 and the base 4 are connected through the binding member 22.

More specifically, one end of the binding material 22 penetrates the through hole 10 of the base 4 to form a knot or, when formed to extend into the storage space 16, the binding material fixing member 24 accommodated therein. Is connected to the base 4 and the other end of the actuator 20 accommodated in the through hole 10 of the base 4 and the central hole 17 and the space 18 of the swivel 8. It passes and extends into the rod 2.

The stopper 26 is attached to and fixed to the binding member 22 extending into the rod 2 at the upper end of the swivel 8 at a predetermined distance 'L', and also in the space 18. The pressure plate 28 is fixedly attached to a position where it is always positioned to receive the elasticity of the actuator 20.

On the other hand, the stopper 26 may further include a rubber buffer layer 27 on the bottom surface in contact with the upper end of the swivel (8).

This rubber buffer layer 27 is provided when the upper end of the swivel 8 may be damaged by the strike of the stopper 26.

According to the above-described configuration, the binding member 22 reaches the pressure plate 28 at one end connected to the center of the upper surface of the base 4 and is always tensioned in a straight line by receiving the elasticity of the actuator 28.

Due to this tension, the swivel is tensioned so as to be the shortest distance between the pressure plate 28 positioned in the space 18 and the center of the base 4, and as a result, the traction force is transmitted through the pressure plate 28. 8) the rod 2 is erected perpendicularly to the center of the base 4 as it is automatically centered at the center of the base 4 via the rounding 19 of the base.

In this state in which the rods 2 are arranged vertically, the other end of the binding member 22 to which the stopper 26 is attached extends freely inside the rod 2.

On the other hand, the rod (2) may be formed in the form of a tube forming one cross-section, but to be able to withstand contact with the vehicle, the inner tube 200 made of urethane, and the outer tube 202 made of polycarbonate It is preferable to have a double structure, and in this case, a high-brightness reflective paper 204 may be disposed between the inner tube 200 and the outer tube 202. The outward shield 60 of the cover 6 may also be formed in a cross section conforming to the above-described dual structure.

In the lane regulating rod according to the present invention, the binding material 22 may employ a fiber rope, a synthetic resin rope, or a wire rope of a suitable thickness, and the fiber rope or the synthetic resin rope may be a storage space of the base 4 ( Knot can be formed in 16, but if wire rope is used, a suitable connection member fixing member 24 should be provided.

As a preferable example of the wiring member fixing member 24, as shown in FIG. 2, the screw 240 has a hole 240 through which one end of the binding material 22 penetrates in the middle and is set in a direction orthogonal to the hole. ) May be proposed by pressing the side of the penetrating binding material 22 to fix the screw.

However, the above-described example of FIG. 2 is only one example, and one end of the binding member 22 is integrated with the base 4 in the storage space 16 within a range not departing from the technical idea of the present invention. Any means of connecting can be taken.

In the lane regulating rod of the present invention having the above-described configuration, the position of the pressure plate 28 is set to be placed in a place where the elasticity of the actuator 20 can be sufficiently and strongly received, and in this state, the rod 2 is the binding material. By the elasticity of the actuator 20 applied through (2) it is to maintain a standing position as shown in FIG.

In this state, when the rod 2 comes into contact with a vehicle or other object, the bottom of the swivel 8 is immediately pivoted on the axis and is inclined as shown in FIG. 3. The binding material 22 positioned between the bottom of the bottom and the base 4 is bent to allow the rod 2 to fall.

Further, even when the rod 2 is pushed and moved by the wheel of the vehicle while the rod 2 is inverted, the lane regulating rod of the present invention absorbs and buffers the pressure plate 28 while compressing the actuator 20 in proportion to the force applied by the vehicle. At the same time, the binding material 22 is drawn through the lower side of the rod 2 so that the rod 2 can be moved away from the base 4 by having a margin as long as the compression length of the actuator 20. Such binding material 22 can be taken out until the stopper 26 comes into contact with the upper end of the swivel 8, and this length becomes a distance corresponding to the constant interval 'L' of FIG. That is, the predetermined interval 'L' defined by the stopper 26 corresponds to the maximum distance that the pressure plate 28 can compress the actuator 20, and accordingly, the maximum that the binding material 22 can be drawn out to the outside. It may be the length.

As described above, when the pressure plate 28 moves while compressing the actuator 20 in correspondence with an external force applied from the outside, the withdrawal action of the binding material 22 may be reversed. As the elasticity is reversed by pushing the pressure plate 28 to move the position, the binding material 22 drawn out is pulled into the binding material 22 as the binding material 22 is drawn back into the inside of the rod 2 again. In this process, the center of gravity of the swivel (8) is accompanied by the action of restoring the original standing posture.

In the lane regulating rod referring to FIG. 1, since the distance 'L' defines the lead length of the binding material 22, when the height of the rod 2 is increased, the height of the swivel 8 must be increased. As a result, there is a need to prepare the size of the swivel 8 according to the type of the height of the rod 8, a lot of mold manufacturing cost is required.

4 illustrates a lane regulating rod that can cope with a height change of the rod 2 with only one type of swivel 8 as a modification of the lane regulating rod according to the present invention.

In the illustrated lane regulating rod, the liner 80 is fitted into the internal space 18 of the swivel 8 and the actuator 20 is accommodated in the liner 80.

The liner 80 may employ a tubular body made of synthetic resin or metal, which acts to increase the height of the swivel 8 with respect to the height of the rod 2, and thus is larger than the one type of swivel 8. If only a small liner 80 is prepared, it can be applied to rods 2 of various specifications.

In addition, in the above embodiment, the binding material 22 connected to the center of (4) may be integrally connected by insert-injecting one end of the binding material 22 into the base 4, in which case the number of parts The cost reduction effect can be expected due to the reduction of cost or the omission of the assembly manual step.

As described above, in the present invention, the rod and the base are connected to each other by a binding material, and the rod is structured to maintain the standing posture by the elasticity of the actuator disposed therein. As the actuator compresses as it bends, no damage or fatigue build-up occurs.

Therefore, the standing restoring state of the inverted rods is maintained in the aligned state as in the first arrangement.

In addition, even when the rod is pushed by the wheel of the vehicle, the binding material is released from the inside of the rod to cushion the external force, so that the rod is not severely damaged even when a large external force is removed from the base, and the actuator is released. Since the structure is compressed in proportion to the length, when the binding material is introduced into the rod again, the elasticity of the actuator is sufficiently acted to maintain the standing posture perfectly on the base in the original posture, and the conduction and standing of the rod is repeated. Even if the actuator is only repeated compression and expansion, there is no deterioration of its physical properties or elasticity.
