Definitions

  • This invention comprises a street boundary post with a hollow space opening at least upwards, and having a holding arrangement for a rod type snow sign.
  • the object of the invention is to reduce this expense considerably and to produce a street boundary post which can be used both in summer and winter and in this connection to render superfluous to a very great extent the storage and preparation, and also the transport and removal of snow signs. It is also particularly intended to do away with the use of lorries and a large labour force.
  • the snow sign being arranged axially movable inside the street boundary post, an axial guide for the snow sign being provided at the upper end of the post, and the street boundary post and the snow sign having engagement means co-operating with one another and suitable for fixing the snow sign in its rest position inserted in the post, and also in its drawn-out operative position.
  • the snow sign is protected throughout the summer inside the post, is drawn out by a single handle in autumn and pushed back again in the spring.
  • the snow sign consists of at least two vertically telescopable guided components.
  • the components preferably have catch engagement means co-operating with one another which fix in relation to one another both in their drawn-out position and also when pushed one inside the other.
  • the snow sign is preferably provided with a transverse bore at its upper end.
  • the post and snow sign of plastics It has been found particularly advantageous to make the post and snow sign of plastics.
  • the use of plastics material makes possible a particularly advantageous construction, thanks to which the post, if for instance a snow-plough or a car hits it, can spring resiliently from its base without being seriously damaged.
  • the idea of this construction is that the lower end of the post is formed as a longitudinally slotted hollow cylinder, terminating downwards in a conical widening, while substantially in the vicinity of the upper end of this widening an annular groove extends round and where further a post type base fits by its upper conical part in this conical widening and has at the upper end an annular beading associated with this annular groove.
  • a general object of this invention is to provide a generally improved and more satisfactory road boundary post.
  • FIG. 1 is a general view of the street boundary post with the snow sign drawn out and a warning flag fitted;
  • FIG. 2 is a longitudinal section through the upper end of the post and the components of the snow sign;
  • FIG. 3 is a plan of the upper end of the post without the snow sign
  • FIG. 4 is a view of the street boundary post with the snow sign drawn in, that is to say the upper end of the post and the lower end partly in section;
  • FIG. 5 a detail view in the direction of the arrow V in FIG. 4.
  • a street boundary post designated as a whole by 10 consists of an actual post 12, whose cross-section is usually an isosceles triangle, but changes into a cylindrical shape at its lower end, of two tubular components 14 and 16 telescopically insertable into the post and forming the snow sign, and of a base 18, which can be pressed by a post type extension 20 into the ground or released again as requisite.
  • the base 18 is preferably made of light metal. while the other parts of the street boundary post are of plastics.
  • the general object of the invention is to permit the equipment of street with street boundary post and snow signs particularly cheaply.
  • the parts exposed to weathering are plastics they are to the highest degree insensitive to the action of the weather and in addition to this they have the elasticity required for the functioning of the catch engagement connections which have yet to be described.
  • the street boundary post in accordance with the invention is capable of resisting mechanical shock, the post releasing itself from its base in a manner which will be described later on if anything hits the post,- so that usually no further damage takes place.
  • the post 12 is made hollow and is closed at its upper end by a cap 22 which is inserted by a tapered extension 24 in the post and is welded or bonded to it.
  • the cap 22 has an upper aperture 26 which is provided with a conically widened rim 32 for easier insertion of the snow sign and also in connection with the nipples 28 and 30 associated with the catch engagement arrangement which will be described in more detail in what follows, and fitted to the snow sign.
  • Near the upper and lower ends of the guide 34 there is provided in each case an annular groove 38 or 40 respectively.
  • Movable vertically in the guide 34 is a first tubular component 44 of the snow sign near whose lower end are arranged, uniformly distributed, three outwardly pressed nipples 28 which engage in the groove 40 when the component 14 is drawn out of the post 12. In order to make possible secure engagement the groove 40 is made somewhat wider than the nipple 28.
  • nipples 30 which engage in the upper groove 38 of the guide 34 when the component 14 is pushed in. From the upper end 46 there is pushed in, till it comes against a collar 48, a guide sleeve 50. which has similarly to the guide 34 two grooves 52 and 58. to which there are assigned, on a second component 16 of the snow sign, which is movable in the guide component 48, two groups of three nipples (in each case) 62 or 64 respectively, near the lower end 66 or near the upper end 68 of the second component 16.
  • a cover cap 70 which is welded or bonded to this second component 16, the cap 68 being made wide enough to be applied by its lower rim 72 on the surface 74 of the cap 22 when the snow sign is completely inserted in the post 12, and thus to cover the aperture in the cap.
  • a warning flag 76 one of the components, preferably the upper component 16, is provided with a transverse bore 78.
  • the post 12 is made cylindrical and has an annular groove 80, from whence it widens downwardly in a conical section 82 to its lower rim 84.
  • the base 18 is made of sheet metal in its upper part and has an annular beading 86, which is assigned to the annular groove 80.
  • a conical section 88 which is associated with the conical widening 82 of the post 12 and which terminates in an annular horizontal collar 90, on which, when the post 12 is placed in position, its lower rim 84 rests.
  • the tapered widening 82 can widen out through a slot 94 (FIGURE 5), so that the post only jumps from the base.
  • the slot 94 also facilitates the application of the post 12 on the base 18.
  • the groove 80 is made wider than the beading 86.
  • the post 12 is firmly mounted on the base 18, thanks on the one hand to the conical surfaces 82 and 88 and on the other hand by the collar 90, on which the lower rim of the post 12 is mounted, so that the post is chucked between the beading 86 and the collar 90.
  • a street boundary post comprising an upright tubular base member, said base member having an internal integral concentric guide sleeve at the upper end thereof, said sleeve being inwardly spaced from the inner wall of said member, a first rod member telescopically received within side guide sleeve and extending into said base member, vertically spaced female catch means formed internally in the inner wall of said guide sleeve, and vertically spaced complementary male catch means formed exteriorly in the wall of said rod member, said male catch means respectively cooperating with said female catch means to selectively maintain said rod member in an extended position and a retracted position within said base member.
