Abstract
An impact protection system is disclosed. A plurality of anchor posts is provided with at least one transverse support member between at least two of the plurality of anchor posts. The at least one transverse support member attaches rigidly between the anchor posts to transfer impact force from one anchor post to the next as a compressive force along an axis of the transverse support member.
Description
- This disclosure is related to impact protection system in general and, more specifically, to impact protection systems for in-store displays.
- Grocery stores, warehouse clubs, and other retailers often make use of large open-top chest style freezers and refrigerators. Customers may be able to walk up and view cold or frozen merchandise and reach inside to make their selections. While this is convenient for the customer, the freezers often impede thoroughfares used by stocking crews to transport goods from one location in the store (e.g., a stockroom) to another (e.g., a display space). Moreover, in larger retail environments, pallet skids, forklifts, or other power equipment may be used to increase efficiency, but further increase traffic.
- Unfortunately, collisions will occur between the power equipment and the display freezers. While the power equipment is typically quite rugged and able to withstand these impacts, the freezer units typical suffer unacceptable damage. In the past, freezers have been equipped with bumpers attaching directly to the freezer. These bumpers usually attach along the sides and will be larger at the corners to provide additional protection. However, the structure of the freezer itself is generally not strong enough to avoid damage over time, even with the bumpers.
- What is needed is a system that addresses the above and related problems.
- The present invention disclosed and claimed herein, in one aspect thereof comprises an impact protection system. A plurality of anchor posts is provided with at least one transverse support member between at least two of the plurality of anchor posts. The at least one transverse support member attaches rigidly between the anchor posts to transfer impact force from one anchor post to the next as a compressive force along an axis of the transverse support member.
- In one embodiment, the plurality of anchor posts form the corners of a substantially rectilinear barrier around a protected object, and at least one transverse support beam spans the space between each adjacent anchor post. At least one leg may be provided supporting at least one transverse support beam a predetermined distance above the floor. The leg may support the transverse beam against vertical movement but does not necessarily impede axial movement of the transverse beam.
- The at least one transverse support member may attach to each of the plurality of anchor posts proximate a lower end of the posts. The plurality of anchor posts may be anchored to a solid floor via at least one anchor bolt. In one embodiment, the plurality of anchor posts and at least one transverse support member comprise food-grade stainless steel.

FIG. 2 is a side partial cutaway view of a bollard mounting according to aspects of the present disclosure. -
FIG. 3 is a side cutaway view of a portion of the high impact protection system ofFIG. 1 . -
FIG. 4A is a side view of a high impact protection system corner according to aspects of the present disclosure. -
FIG. 4B is a superior view of the corner ofFIG. 4A . - Referring now to
FIG. 1 , a perspective view of a high impact protection system according to aspects of the present disclosure is shown. The high impact protection system, or HIPS, may be constructed so as to surround and protect a protected object. The protected object could be a freezer 101 (as shown inFIG. 1 ), another kind of retail display, or any other object needing barrier protection against impacts and other damaging events. It can be seen that thepresent system 100 provides a plurality of bollards oranchor posts 102. In the present embodiment, asingle bollard 102 is provided at each of the four corners of the rectilinear shapedfreezer 101. Thesystem 100 could easily be adapted to provide impact protection for other systems, even those that are not square or rectangular in shape. - In the present embodiment, the four
bollards 102 at the four corners of thechest freezer 101 will be anchored securely to the ground orfloor 104. A segment ofcontinuous railing 106 is provided between eachbollard 102. Thecontinuous railing 106 operates as a transverse support member between each of thebollards 102.Corners 108 may be affixed to eachbollard 102, providing connecting means to interface with thecontinuous railing 106. It can be seen that thecontinuous railing 106 is supported a predetermined distance from thefloor 104 bylegs 110. In the present embodiment, thelegs 110 function as intermediate support members for thecontinuous railing 106. - In one embodiment, the
corners 108 will be allowed freedom of movement in the vertical direction relative to thebollard 102. In such embodiment, it is thelegs 110 that restrain thecontinuous railing 106, and thus thecorners 108, at the appropriate height above thefloor 104. This allows impacts received at any one of thebollards 102 to be transmitted only in a transverse direction through the transverse members orcontinuous railing 106 to one or moreadjacent bollards 102. Thus, an impact at onebollard 102 that is excessive enough to cause movement of thebollard 102 will be transmitted directly to anadjacent bollard 102 without damage to thelegs 110 or other components. The impact force may be transmitted as a compressive force along the axis of thecontinuous railing 106 between thebollards 102. In one embodiment, thelegs 110 will provide a sliding fit with thecontinuous railing 106 such that axial forces along thecontinuous railing 106 are not impeded by thelegs 110 and such forces do not affect the integrity of thelegs 110. - Referring now to
FIG. 2 , a side partial cutaway view of a bollard mounting according to aspects of the present disclosure is shown. In one embodiment, thebollards 102 ofFIG. 1 may comprise the separate elements as shown inFIG. 2 . In one embodiment, the body orpost 202 may be threaded withthreads 204. Thethreads 204 interfit withthreads 208 provided along the inner diameter ofbase 206. It can be seen that thebase 206 is secured to thefloor 104, which may be concrete, by ananchor bolt 210. In order to provide a flush mounting of thebollard 102 onto thefloor 104, thebase 206 will be secured byanchor bolt 210 into thefloor 104. Following this, thepost 202 will be screwed into thebase 206. - Referring now to
FIG. 3 , a side cutaway view of a portion of the high impact protection system ofFIG. 1 is shown. Theportion 300 of the high impact protection system shown inFIG. 3 illustrates thebollard 102 having been anchored securely to theground 104 as described previously. In the present embodiment, thecorner 108 has been provided on thebollard 102 and in the present embodiment is allowed to slide freely up or down thebollard 102. Both thebollard 102 and thecorner 108 may be made from a number of different materials, including but not limited to food grade stainless steel, painted iron materials, powder coated materials, and/or polymer materials such as plastic. - The
corner 108 can be seen interfacing with thecontinuous railing 106. The present embodiment provides a slip joint configuration between thecorner 108 and thecontinuous railing 106. Thecontinuous railing 106 is supported a predetermined distance above thefloor 104 by theleg 110. Theleg 110 may be securely anchored to thefloor 104 by an affixed orcaptive anchor bolt 302. As described previously, thefloor 104 may be concrete and therefore theanchor bolt 302 may be a concrete anchor bolt. - Referring now to
FIGS. 4A and 4B ,FIG. 4A illustrates a side view of a high impactprotection system corner 108 according to aspects of the present disclosure whileFIG. 4B is a superior view of the same component. Thecorner 108 may comprise aring member 402. In the present embodiment, the high impact protection system is designed to protect a substantiallyrectilinear freezer chest 101. Therefore, thecorner 108 also comprises tworight angle members 404. Theright angle members 404 attach to thering member 402 at substantially right angles to one another. - Distal from the
ring member 402 on theright angle members 404 is acollar 406. Thecollar 406 attaches to mating ends 408. As can be seen fromFIG. 3 , the mating ends 408 are sized to interfit with an inner diameter of thecontinuous railing 106. In one embodiment, thecollar 406 defines the limit to which thecontinuous railing 106 can slide over themating end 408. From the superior view ofFIG. 4B , it can be seen that thering member 402 defines abollard ring 410. - In one method of constructing the high impact protection system of the present disclosure, a number of
bollards 102 may be affixed to theground 104 as was described with respect toFIG. 2 . Thecorners 108 may then be interfitted with thecontinuous railing 106. Following this, thecorners 108 may be slid down on top of thebollards 102. Thelegs 110, if so provided, may then be securely anchored to theground 104 as well. In another embodiment, thebase 206 of thebollards 102 may be anchored in place around thefreezer 101 followed by anchoring of thelegs 110 in the appropriate location. Thecontinuous railing 106 may then be interfitted with thelegs 110. At this point, thecorners 108 may be mated up with thecontinuous railing 106. Following this, the body or post 202 of eachbollard 102 may be threaded to the base 206 as previously described. - Thus, the present invention is well adapted to carry out the objectives and attain the ends and advantages mentioned above as well as those inherent therein. While presently preferred embodiments have been described for purposes of this disclosure, numerous changes and modifications will be apparent to those of ordinary skill in the art. Such changes and modifications are encompassed within the spirit of this invention as defined by the claims.
