Definitions

  • the invention relates to a road marking device for producing profiled horizontal markings, which are often also referred to as horizontal structural markings.
  • Profiled markings in particular as lane delimitation and center lines, are mainly used to achieve good night visibility when wet on roads or other traffic surfaces, because they allow water to run off well and the profiles are clearly visible in the headlights of cars, in particular, if these markings are covered with reflective beads.
  • Previously known marking devices for producing profiled horizontal markings work with a rotating roller, which is installed below a drawing box with an outlet slot for the marking compound (for example patent specification CH 678 955 A5). During the movement of the marking device, the flowable marking mass falls out of the outlet slot onto the rotating roller and is thrown onto the street by the latter, the marking material being torn apart and divided into parts of different sizes which adhere to the street. This creates a strip of irregularly distributed material areas that have irregular raised profiles.
  • the present invention has for its object to provide a simply constructed road marking device which does not require any mechanically moving parts when laying the profiled markings and which allows predominantly flat profiles to be produced without protruding peaks.
  • the road marking device is characterized in that it has a material container for receiving the marking material with a base which is at least partially designed as a perforated plate and a slide which can be moved parallel to the base and which has a position closing the holes in the perforated plate and one of these holes can take a releasing position.
  • the laying of a profiled marking is carried out only in that the marking mass, which is preferably a viscous marking mass of high viscosity, falls through the holes of the perforated plate onto the street surface under the effect of its own gravity.
  • the marking mass which is preferably a viscous marking mass of high viscosity
  • the marking pattern generated during laying that is to say the distribution, size and shape of the profiled areas produced, can be varied in a simple manner as desired by the distribution, size and shape of the perforated plates of the perforated plate and also by the speed of the laying.
  • the perforations of the perforated plate are preferably distributed unevenly, of different sizes and of different shapes, for example round, oval, triangular, quadrangular, etc.
  • the maximum linear dimensions, ie the maximum extension of a hole preferably varies from 4 to 12 mm.
  • the punches can also be evenly distributed and have the same size or different sizes.
  • a marking material is particularly suitable as the marking material, as is described in the international patent application PCT / CH96 / 00043 with the publication number WO96 / 24640 by the same applicant.
  • This is an aqueous marking compound of high viscosity with a solids content of at least 87% by weight, the volatile component of which mainly consists of water.
  • FIG. 1 shows a perspective schematic view of a marking device designed as a small car according to the invention
  • FIG. 2 shows a marking device with a mounting flange for mounting on a conventional motorized terrace marking vehicle, the material container being shown separately from its chassis
  • FIG. 3 shows a side view of the material container according to FIG. 2,
  • FIG. 4 shows an end view of the material container according to FIG. 2,
  • FIG. 5 shows a top view of the material container according to FIG. 2,
  • FIG. 6 shows a plan view of the material container of a handcart according to FIG. 1,

  • Figures 12 to 14 three different examples of profiled horizontal markings produced with the marking device according to the invention.
  • the road marking device is a hand-operated trolley and simply consists of a material container 1, which is used to hold a viscous marking compound and rests on a chassis 11 with wheels 2 and handlebars 3, as will be described in more detail later.
  • the width of the material container 1 corresponds essentially to the width of the marking strip to be drawn, its length can be, for example, 20 to 50 cm.
  • This container 1 can have a size suitable for holding 5 to 40 kg of marking mass, with which generally marking strips with a length of several 100 meters can be laid.
  • the bottom of the marking container 1 has an inclined plate 4 and then a horizontal tale perforated plate 5, as shown for example in Figures 9 to 11.
  • a slider 7 (see FIG. 6) is arranged under this perforated plate 5 and can be displaced parallel to the perforated plate 5 in order to close the holes 6 or to release these holes.
  • This slider 7 consists of an ordinary plate with a continuous wall and lateral flanges 7a and has to be moved in the longitudinal direction to release the holes, which can be done by hand, for example by means of a Bowden cable 20.
  • the slider 7 In order to prevent drops of the marking mass from falling onto the road surface in front of the beginning or behind the end of a marking line, in particular in the case of a broken center line in the space between two line sections, and producing undesirable stains, is below the slider 7 in the same sense as this Slide movable tub 8 is provided in the manner of a drawer, which can also be operated, for example, by means of a Bowden cable 21.
  • the slide 7 and the trough 8 are moved simultaneously to release the perforated plate 5.
  • the slide 7 At the end of a marking line, the slide 7 is first shifted into the closed position, and then the tub 8 is slightly delayed, in order to prevent material drops from falling out behind the end of the laid line. This measure is important because the road building authorities generally strictly prescribe that there should be no stains of the marking material outside the installed markings.
  • FIG. 2 shows in perspective a marking device which is intended to be attached to the side of a conventional, motorized road marking vehicle to be attached.

  • the marking device itself does not require any energy or mechanically moving parts for its functioning, is easy and inexpensive to manufacture and transport and requires no instruction or training for the operating personnel.
