Description

Field of technology

This utility model relates to memorial structures, namely, tombstones, slabs, columbariums, and can be used in the activities of ritual services to decorate the burial places of the deceased or their ashes after cremation.

State of the art

There is a well-known tombstone, disclosed in the RF patent for utility model No. 93859 (published on 05/10/2010). The famous monument is made in the form of a vertical stele with a supporting pedestal, and the monument is made of polymer material. The support pedestal contains a stop for connecting to the stele.

There is a known tombstone cross, disclosed in the RF patent for utility model No. 206150 (published 08.25.2021, IPC E04H 13/00). A known tombstone cross contains a vertical base and at least one transverse crossbar, connected to each other to form a cross by means of a pin and wing nuts. In this case, the vertical base includes guide-holding protrusions for installing at least one transverse crossbar, and at least one transverse crossbar has two guide-holding protrusions extending onto the base. The cross also additionally includes a platform for the sign, connected to the vertical base by means of two studs and nuts.

There is a known tombstone, disclosed in the RF patent for utility model No. 75413 (published on 08/10/2008, IPC E04H 13/00) - prototype. A well-known tombstone monument consists of a base and a stele, which contains at least one plate and a metal strip made on at least one side of the plate and rigidly connected to the plate and the base, and the plate is rigidly fixed to the base of the monument.

A common disadvantage of the known solutions is their significant weight and dimensions, which makes installation in the ground relatively labor-intensive.

Disclosure of the essence of the utility model

The technical problem underlying this utility model is to expand the range of memorial structures for decorating the burial places of the deceased or their ashes after cremation.

The technical result achieved by implementing this utility model is to simplify the process of installing a tombstone.

A tombstone is proposed as a useful model. The proposed tombstone consists of a stele mounted on fixing elements to which supporting elements are attached. Unlike the prototype, each fixing element is formed by a horizontal segment and an inclined segment, and the upper surface of the said horizontal segment passes into an inclined segment, the supporting elements are connected to the lower surface of the said horizontal segment, while the lower end parts of the supporting elements are provided with platforms, and the stele of the tombstone is connected with inclined segments of fixing elements.

Brief description of drawings

The utility model is explained with reference to the following drawings:

- FIG. 1 shows a frontal isometric view of the tombstone;

- FIG. 2 shows a rear isometric view of the tombstone.

Description of an embodiment of a utility model

In accordance with FIG. 1, the tombstone consists of a stele 1, fixing elements 2 and supporting elements 3.

Stela 1 is a slab that can be made of stone, wood or metal. Inscriptions or other graphic elements can be painted or engraved on the front surface of stela 1, and an image of the deceased can also be placed. Also, on the front surface of the stele 1, a place can be provided for placing a sign on which inscriptions, a photograph of the deceased or other graphic elements are printed.

The stele 1 is mounted on fixing elements 2. In particular, two fixing elements 2 can be used to fix the stele 1. The fixing elements 2 can be manufactured by casting, extrusion or other means. The fixing elements 2 can be made of separate profiled elements connected to each other by welding. In accordance with FIG. 2, each locking element is formed by a horizontal segment 4 and an inclined segment 5. The upper surface of the horizontal segment 4 merges into an inclined segment 5.

Supporting elements 3 are attached to the lower surface of the horizontal segment 4. In particular, four supporting elements 3 can be used to support the structure, two on each fixing element 2. The lower end parts of the supporting elements 3 are equipped with platforms 6.

The stele 1 is attached to the inclined segments of the fixing elements 2 so that the front surface of the stele is at an acute angle to the ground surface.

The proposed tombstone can be assembled at a manufacturing plant using conventional connecting elements. The stele 1 can be attached to the fixing elements 2 using fasteners that form a detachable or permanent connection. The supporting elements 3 can be attached to the fixing elements 2 by welding or using fastening elements.

The proposed tombstone is installed near the burial place of the deceased or his ashes. To do this, dig a hole in the ground (no deeper than the length of the supporting elements 3) and place a tombstone in it. The recess is then backfilled with soil or filled with a cement mixture so that the supporting elements 3 are hidden inside the soil or cemented, and the fixing elements are at least partially outside. Platforms 6 on the lower end parts of the supporting elements 3 contribute to the stability of the tombstone from axial displacements due to natural phenomena: precipitation, wind, snow thawing. Stela 1 should be oriented at an acute angle to the ground surface. This design of stele 1 allows the visitor to comfortably familiarize himself with the information printed on stele 1.

The proposed utility model reveals a simple and reliable design of a tombstone that does not require significant labor costs for its installation. In addition, this design makes it possible to create a tombstone of small weight and size, which can be easily transported manually or by passenger transport.
