Abstract

The disclosed triangular danger signalling device (Fig.1) differs from signalling devices existing in the market in that it is comprised of a chamber made of flexible material and having a triangular shape (1) which includes an anti-return valve (3) to inflate it with air, so as to configure a turgid triangle of which one side is provided with means (6) which maintain the triangle stable in a plane close to the vertical, in order to counteract the action of the wind or like elements. Another main difference is its folding easiness so as to reduce the inflatable signalling device to a minimum space, resulting practically in a pocket model. Its front face is provided with two perceptible optical bands made of fluorescent and reflecting material so that the signalling device is seen day and night respectively, said material having special characteristics which facilitate the above-mentioned folding to a minimum thickness.

OBJETOOBJECT
El presente modelo de utilidad se refiere a una señal triangular de peligro, perfeccionada, que aporta a la función a la que se destina, varias ventajas que se consignarán más adelante, aparte de otras inherentes a su organización y constitución.The present utility model refers to a triangulated danger signal, perfected, which contributes to the function to which it is intended, several advantages that will be reported later, apart from others inherent in its organization and constitution.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Es preceptivo el uso de la señal amovible de peligro para advertir a los demás automovilistas de la presencia de un vehículo estacionado en la vía pública por cualquier circunstancia anómala.It is mandatory to use the removable danger signal to warn other motorists of the presence of a vehicle parked on public roads for any anomalous circumstance.
Son conocidos en la actualidad diversos tipos de señales triangulares de peligro, del tipo portátil, provistas de medios que las apean en posición vertical al suelo, tales como una varilla, tornapuntas o similares. Existen señales configuradas por un triángulo articulado que permite su plegado para facilidad de transporte y almacenado en el vehículo o maletero sin ocupar excesivo espacio; sin embargo todo este tipo de señales genéricas, están constituidas a partir de una estructura rígida, de cierto peso y volumen, que pese a la condición de ser en parte plegables, ocupan inevitablemente un cierto espacio en el vehículo. A éste inconveniente, hay que añadir el de su coste, que siempre es elevado, debido a losVarious types of triangular danger signals, of the portable type, are now known, provided with means that attach them vertically to the ground, such as a rod, tornapuntas or the like. There are signals configured by an articulated triangle that allows its folding for easy transport and stored in the vehicle or trunk without taking up excessive space; However, all this type of generic signals, are constituted from a rigid structure, of a certain weight and volume, which despite the condition of being partly foldable, inevitably occupy a certain space in the vehicle. To this inconvenience, we must add the cost, which is always high, due to the

Debido a éstos inconvenientes que presentan tales señales genéricas, muchos automovilistas a los que no se les obliga por precepto el uso del triángulo señalizador, emplean en su lugar cualquier medio rudimentario como por ejemplo una lata so similar, que fijan en la calzada con auxilio de piedras que con frecuencia abandonan una vez subsanado el problema con los consiguientes riesgos para los demás automovilistas.Due to these inconveniences that such generic signals present, many motorists who are not obliged to use the signaling triangle, instead use any rudimentary means such as a can or similar, which they fix on the roadway with the help of stones that often leave once the problem has been corrected with the consequent risks for other motorists.
Conforme lo expuesto referente al actual estado de la técnica, no es conocida una señal completamente plegable hasta un mínimo volumen, prácticamente de bolsillo armable en un momento dado para su función, en la que se incluyan los medios propios de sustentación, y cuyo coste resulte ventajosamente económico en relación a las señales tradicionales.In accordance with the above regarding the current state of the art, it is not known a fully foldable signal up to a minimum volume, practically of pocket pocket at a given time for its function, in which the own means of support are included, and whose cost is advantageously economical in relation to traditional signals.
SUMARIO DE LA INVENCIÓNSUMMARY OF THE INVENTION
El objeto del presente modelo de utilidad trata de una señal triangular de peligro dotada de unos perfeccionamientos que vienen a resolver justamente los inconvenientes someramente descritos en el apartado anterior.The purpose of this utility model is a triangular signal of danger equipped with improvements that come to solve precisely the inconveniences briefly described in the previous section.
En líneas generales, la señal que se preconiza está constituida por una cámara de material flexible y forma triangular, que incluyen una válvula antiretorno para su inflado con aire a efectos de configurar un triángulo turgente, uno de cuyos lados incorpora unos medios que lo mantiene estable, en un plano próximo al vertical, contrarrestando la acción del viento u otras.In general, the signal that is recommended is a chamber of flexible material and triangular shape, which includes a non-return valve for air inflation to configure a turgid triangle, one of whose sides incorporates means that keep it stable. , in a plane close to the vertical, counteracting the action of the wind or others.

HOJA DE SUSTITUCIÓN (REGLA 26) Dicho triángulo presenta en su cara anterior sendas bandas de material reflectante y material fluorescente que lo perfila para facilitar su visión diurna y nocturna.SUBSTITUTE SHEET (RULE 26) This triangle has on its front side two bands of reflective material and fluorescent material that outlines it to facilitate its day and night vision.
Una vez desinflada la cámara componente del triángulo, puede aplanarse y plegarse por doblado hasta ocupar espacio muy reducido, quedando alojado en un estuche prácticamente de bolsillo.Once the triangle component chamber has been deflated, it can be flattened and folded down to take up very small space, being housed in a practically pocket case.
Su montaje en uso es también muy simple, precediéndose a su desplegado y seguidamente a su inflado en segundos. Los medios asociados a uno de sus lados proporcionan una base que lo mantienen permanentemente en posición funcional, en tanto que el color rojo característico y las bandas ópticas descritas anteriormente lo hacen perfectamente visible en cualquier condición. A las ventajas mencionadas hay que añadir las de su coste, sensiblemente inferior a cualquiera de los triángulos o señales convencionales.Its assembly in use is also very simple, preceding its deployment and then its inflation in seconds. The means associated with one of its sides provide a base that keeps it permanently in functional position, while the characteristic red color and the optical bands described above make it perfectly visible in any condition. To the mentioned advantages we must add those of its cost, significantly lower than any of the conventional triangles or signals.
