Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a support device for a road sign, intended to be placed on a metal slide.
  • This device can be placed on a slide located in the middle and / or on each side of a road or highway, especially for temporary signage, in case of work or accident for example.
  • Such a device typically comprises a base intended to be placed on the slideway and receiving the panel, the base comprising a bearing face adapted to rest on the slideway and at least two lateral parts intended to be placed on either side of the slideway. the slide.
  • the document FR 2,836,495 discloses another type of support device for a panel.
  • This device comprises a pivoting jaw provided with an articulated arm which, in mounted position, bears against the slide in the case of a metal slide or is placed in the retracted position in the case of a concrete slide.
  • This device has the advantage of being able to adapt to several profiles of slides (trapezoidal profile of a concrete slide or corrugated profile of a metal slide), but it leads to a mounting on a particularly difficult metal slide. Indeed, the operator must both maintain the arm against the slide, from below, and tilt the handle to ensure the locking of the device, from above.
  • the present invention aims to provide a support device for a road sign that can be easily set up on a metal slide, fixed and removed without requiring tools.
  • Another object of the invention is to provide a single support device that can be adapted to at least two types of metal slide, including type A and type B slides existing on the roads of France.
  • the invention also relates to a practical carrier device to carry, and reduced weight.
  • the arm comprises at least one transverse wing fixed relative to the arm, comprising a recess and a protruding tooth arranged opposite the first side wall of the base, in the extreme lowered position of the arm, and intended to cooperate respectively with a bead or a longitudinal recess formed on one side of the slide.
  • the arm comprises two substantially identical transverse wings, parallel and spaced longitudinally from one another, and a bottom connecting the two wings. It should be noted that the arm and the wing (s) form a single piece.
  • the operator places the base on the slide while the arm is raised, then it is sufficient to manually move the lever to cause pivoting of the arm to its lowered extreme position.
  • the locking means then allow the maintenance of the arm substantially in this position to ensure the attachment of the support device on the slide.
  • the operator For the removal of the support device from the slide, the operator, after unlocking the device, raises the lever, causing the pivoting arm to its raised extreme position. It is then sufficient to lift the support device, which is no longer held tight against the slide.
  • the lever and the connecting rod are located above the base, the third axis being arranged - in the transverse direction - between the second and fourth axes, the lever and the connecting rod being arranged so that, in the locked position of the arm, the third axis is located under the second and fourth axes, in abutment against the upper wall of the base.
  • the arm when the lever and the connecting rod are substantially aligned, the arm is in the extreme lowered position and the third axis is located near but at a distance from the upper wall of the base.
  • locking is achieved by further lowering the lever, until the third axis comes into contact with the upper wall of the base, which is a stop limiting displacement.
  • the operator To unlock the device, the operator must raise the lever. This movement requires slightly deforming the assembly consisting of the support device and the slide, to pass beyond the hard point - that is to say when the lever and the connecting rod are aligned.
  • the unlocking thus requires a force that is calibrated: the force is low enough to be easily supplied by the operator and large enough to avoid any risk of inadvertent unlocking.
  • An additional advantage of this structure lies in the fact that the support device is insensitive to vibrations related to the passage of vehicles.
  • the support device may further comprise a second side wall fixed to the bearing face and intended to cooperate with the other side of the slide.
  • the height of the second side wall is for example less than two thirds of the height of the first side wall, to allow a satisfactory maintenance of the device on the slide without interfering with its establishment on the slide.
  • the first and / or the second lateral wall is substantially flat, and disposed longitudinally orthogonal to the bearing face.
  • the support device may comprise at least one hook integral with the base, whose opening is located under the bearing face, the hook being arranged to cooperate with the upper rim of at least one type of slide.
  • the height of the hook is sufficiently small so that, when the device is mounted on a slide of another type, the hook is located above said slide, at a distance from the latter.
  • the projecting tooth has an upper edge and a lower edge converging towards one another towards the first side wall, in the extreme lowered position of the arm, at least one of the edges comprising a first part inclined relative to the horizontal of an angle ⁇ , extended, when one moves away from the first side wall, by a second portion inclined relative to the horizontal of an angle ⁇ less than ⁇ .
  • Figure 1 shows a support device 1, which is for example made from sheet metal plates cut, folded and welded.
  • the support device 1 comprises a base 2, formed here of a hollow tube of square section.
  • a post 3 also formed of a hollow tube of square section and provided with a closed bottom 4, is attached to a first end of the base 2, orthogonally thereto.
  • the post 3 is intended to receive the mast of a road sign.
  • the support device 1 is described in the position it occupies when it is put in place on a slideway: the pole 3 is then substantially vertical and the base 2 substantially horizontal and orthogonal to the general direction of the slideway .
  • the vertical direction z with respect to which are used the terms “upper”, “lower”, “height”, and the transverse direction y as the direction in which the base 2 extends, with respect to which are used the terms “lateral”, “side”, “width”.
  • the longitudinal direction x is defined as the direction orthogonal to the vertical and transverse directions (see FIG. 1), which corresponds to the direction in which the slideway extends.
  • the base 2 At its end opposite to the post 3, the base 2 comprises a first lateral wall 5, substantially flat and extending orthogonally to the transverse direction y.
  • the base 2 also comprises, at its second end, a second lateral wall 6, substantially flat and parallel to the first side wall 5.
  • the two side walls 5, 6 are located under the base 2 and are fixed thereto, being spaced from each other by a distance d.
  • the height of the second side wall 6 is less than the height of the first side wall 5, and for example close to one-third.
  • the lengths of the side walls 5, 6 (in the x direction) are sufficient for allow a satisfactory maintenance of the support device 1 on a slide. These lengths, which are here substantially identical, are for example between 10 and 20 cm.
  • the lower face of the base 2 located between the side walls 5, 6 forms a bearing face 7 intended to rest on the slide.
  • the side walls 5, 6 are formed by the branches of a U-folded sheet, the bottom of which is welded under the base 2 and constitutes the bearing face 7.
  • Tabs 8 extending orthogonally to the direction x project from the bottom of the U-shaped sheet, upwards, on either side of said bottom (in the x direction).
  • the upper edge of the tabs 8 is preferably at the same level as the upper face 28 of the base 2.
  • corner reinforcing piece 9 placed between the base 2 and the first side wall 5.
  • the support device 1 also comprises an arm 10, formed of a U-folded sheet, comprising a bottom 11 and two lateral wings 12 substantially identical and orthogonal to the bottom 11.
  • Each wing 12 has a substantially rectangular shape with a recess 13 opening into the edge of the flange 12 opposite the edge of the flange 12 bonded to the bottom 11.
  • a recess 13 opening into the edge of the flange 12 opposite the edge of the flange 12 bonded to the bottom 11.
  • the arm 10 is mounted on the base 2 pivotally about a first longitudinal axis 16.
  • the first axis 16 is formed by two rods each engaged in the free end portion of a tongue 14 and the corresponding tab 8. The distance between the wings 12 is thus substantially equal to the length of the side walls 5, 6.
  • the first axis 16 is located in the upper part of the arm 10.
  • the tooth 15 of each wing 12 has an upper edge 18 (adjacent to the recess 13) and a lower edge 19 converging towards each other from the bottom 11 of the arm 10 towards the free edge 17.
  • the edges 18 , 19 are substantially symmetrical and comprise a first portion 20 which extends from the free edge 17 and is inclined relative to the horizontal (when the arm is in the extreme lowered position) by an angle ⁇ .
  • the first portion 20 is extended towards the bottom 11 by a second portion 21 which is inclined relative to the horizontal (when the arm is in the extreme lowered position) by an angle ⁇ less than ⁇ .
  • Between the first and second parts 20, 21 is therefore defined a rounded corner area 22.
  • the angles ⁇ and ⁇ are adapted to the geometry of the existing slides, as will be seen later. Thus, ⁇ is of the order of 25 to 35 °, and ⁇ is of the order of 5 to 15 °.
  • the support device 1 further comprises actuating means enabling an operator to rotate the arm 10.
  • These means comprise a lever 22 and a connecting rod 23, both extending substantially in a plane orthogonal to the x and median direction of the base 2, being situated above the base 2.
  • a first end of the lever 22 is pivotally mounted relative to the base 2 about a second longitudinal axis 24, while a second end of the lever 22 is pivotally mounted relative to the connecting rod 23 about a third longitudinal axis 25.
  • the second end of the connecting rod 23 is pivotally mounted relative to the arm 10 around a fourth longitudinal axis 26.
  • the fourth axis 26 is formed by a rod engaged in the rod 23 and in tongues 27 protruding from the bottom 11 of the arm 10, towards the pole 3, on either side of the rod 23 (in the longitudinal direction) and each having a portion orthogonal to the x-axis.
  • Two cylindrical spacers (not shown) are engaged around the rod, on either side of the connecting rod 23, to prevent the displacement along x of the connecting rod 23 relative to the arm 10.
  • the fourth axis 26 is farther from the post 3 (in the y direction) as the first axis 16 in all possible positions of the arm 10.
  • the second axis 24 is carried by a part 29 welded to the base 2. It is located substantially midway between the post 3 and the second side wall 6, and at a short distance (for example less than 5 cm) from the face upper 28 of the base 2.
  • the third axis 25 it is located between the second and fourth axes 24, 26, substantially in the same vertical plane as the first axis 16.
  • the length of the lever 22 (in the y direction) is significantly greater than that of the connecting rod 23, for example greater than triple.
  • the lever 22 may comprise a handle 30, which facilitates the transport of the support device 1 and the actuation of the lever 22.
  • the support device 1 comprises two transverse hooks 31, fixed under the base 2, between the side walls 5, 6, on either side of the base 2 in the longitudinal direction.
  • the hooks 31 are located in the vertical extension of the tabs 8.
  • Each hook 31 has an opening facing the arm 10, and has, in the embodiment shown, an L-shaped.
  • a slide 32 of a first type (called "type A"), which comprises two corrugations defining a first side of the slide on the one hand a longitudinal central bead, forming a vertical face 33 substantially flat , and on the other hand two longitudinal hollows.
  • the second side of the slideway 32 therefore comprises on the one hand a longitudinal central cavity 34 bounded by upper and lower walls 36 converging towards each other in the direction of the vertical face 33 at an angle (relative to horizontally) adjacent to ⁇ , and secondly two longitudinal beads having a generally triangular section and a rounded vertex 37.
  • the upper edge 38 of the slide 32 is located substantially in the same vertical plane as the vertical face 33.
  • the dimensions of the device 1 are adapted to those of the slide 32.
  • the distance d separating the side walls 5, 6 is slightly greater than the width of the slide 32, to allow the introduction of the device 1 while ensuring a satisfactory maintenance in position.
  • the first side wall 5 is substantially in contact with the vertical face 33 of the slide 32 and with the upper rim 38, while the second lateral wall 6 is substantially in contact with the top. 37 of the upper bead.
  • the second wall 6 thus has a height large enough to be opposite said top 37, and small enough not to interfere with the introduction of the device 1 on the slide, which can be performed by pivoting about a longitudinal axis.
  • the height of the hooks 31 is small enough that they are located above the slide 32 without interfering with the positioning of the device 1 (the hooks 31 are not essential for maintaining in this case).
  • the geometry of the assembly is arranged so that, when the lever 22 and the rod 23 are substantially aligned, the arm 10 is in its extreme lowered position.
  • the third axis 25 is then located near but at a distance from the upper face 28 of the base 2. In this position, the distance between the second and fourth axes 24, 27 is maximum, and the teeth 15 are pushed against the slide 32 , the device 1 and the slide 32 being slightly elastically deformed.
  • each wing 12 extends substantially vertically, and the tooth 15 of each wing 12 is in contact and bears against the slide 32, the opposite side at the first side wall 5.
  • the device 1 is locked on the slide 32. In fact, to raise the arm 10, it is necessary to go back through the substantially aligned position of the lever 22 and the connecting rod 23, that is to say, to increase the distance D , and cause elastic deformation of the whole.
  • the device 1 is dimensioned so that this is impossible without human action, for example only under the effect of the forces exerted on the panel when the device 1 is placed at the edge of a road or highway.
  • type B a slide 32 'of a second type, which also has two corrugations, but of different shape with respect to the slide 32 of the first type.
  • the longitudinal beads formed on the second side of the slide 32 ' have a generally trapezoidal section having a substantially plane and vertical apex 37'.
  • the upper walls 35 'and lower 36' of the central recess 34 ' are inclined at an angle (relative to the horizontal) lower than the angle ⁇ .
  • the upper flange 38 ' is located at a distance from the vertical plane defined by the vertical face 33', towards the second side of the slide 32 '.
  • each wing 12 extends substantially vertically, and the tooth 15 of each wing 12 is in contact and bears against the slideway 32 ', on the opposite side to the first lateral wall 5.
  • the hooks 31 cooperate with the upper rim 38 'of the slide 32', which prevents the tilting of the device 1 because the first side wall 5 is not in contact with the flange 38 '.
