Description

  The present invention relates to a car stop block installed at a place where a vehicle is parked, and more particularly, to a car stop block that is environmentally friendly (ecology), safe, and has a function as an advertising tower in addition to the function of the car stop block.

  The car stop block is for stopping a car by bringing a tire into contact with the car stop block at a predetermined stop position when the car is parked, and is installed in a parking lot or a garage.

  Since the vehicle stop block is for stopping various vehicles, large and small, it receives a great impact each time. For this reason, a lightweight object such as plastic is easily damaged or destroyed and cannot function as a car stopper. Therefore, concrete blocks are generally used.

  The concrete block has a relatively large specific gravity so that an appropriate mass can be obtained with an appropriate size. Even if the block is placed, the concrete block does not move easily. Is also small.

  However, the material of the concrete block is very hard, so if a pedestrian moving in the parking lot, especially an elderly person or an infant falls, hitting the body against a hard concrete block will rarely lead to serious injury. Absent. For this reason, it is desirable to use a material for the car stopper block that is softer than concrete and has a low possibility of injury even if the body is strongly struck, that is, a material having shock buffering properties.

  As a resin vehicle stop block that replaces concrete, the following Patent Document 1 describes a molded composite of polyethylene and polypropylene. However, these resins are also softer than concrete, but they cannot be said to be materials with shock-absorbing properties in terms of preventing injury when the body is struck hard.

  On the other hand, many people enter and leave the parking lot where the car stop block is installed. For this reason, for example, in a parking lot such as a supermarket or a department store, a signboard specifying the name of the store, the name of the company, the product for sale, etc. is installed. For example, Patent Document 2 below describes a signboard / car stop that can be used as a signboard or a carriage when working, and can be used as a car stop when not working.

Here, in order to arrange and park a plurality of automobiles in the parking lot, a plurality of vehicle stop blocks are provided at predetermined intervals. If such a car stop block can have a function as a signboard, the function of the advertisement can be improved without providing a separate signboard. Conventionally, the car stop block has only a function of preventing the vehicle from overrunning the stop position, and no car stop block having a function as an advertising tower has existed so far.

  Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a car stop block having two functions of an original function as a car stop block, that is, a car stop function for reliably stopping the car without overrunning, and an advertising tower function. It is in. Another object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle stop block that is excellent in durability, safety, design, and high visibility.

  The present invention is a rubber car stop block installed at a place where a vehicle is parked, and an inclined surface with which a tire abuts is formed below the upper end portion, and a vertical direction that prevents overrun of the vehicle below the inclined surface. A surface is formed. By using rubber, it is possible to minimize the impact and noise when the vehicle tire comes into contact with the vehicle stop block. In addition, since the vertical surface is formed below the inclined surface with which the vehicle tire abuts, overrun of the vehicle can be reliably prevented.

  It is preferable that an advertisement space is provided on the inclined surface. The conventional car stop block only had a function to prevent overrun of the vehicle, but by providing an advertisement space for entering the store name, company name, etc. on the inclined surface, the car stop block has a function as an advertising tower. You can have it.

  It is preferable that the rubber has a hardness in the range of 50 to 70 degrees. As a result, the vehicle stop block can be provided with an impact buffering property, and the risk of injury can be minimized even if the pedestrian falls and hits the body strongly.

  It is preferable that the rubber is a recycled rubber of an old tire. Thereby, it can be set as an environment-friendly (ecology) vehicle stop block.

  It is preferable that an aluminum reflector is provided in the advertising space. Thereby, the attention degree to the advertising space of a pedestrian or a driver | operator can be improved.

  Moreover, it is preferable that a reflective member is attached to a part of the outer periphery of the vehicle stop block, and visibility is improved by reflected light from the reflective member. This makes it possible to drive the vehicle backward, avoid rear-end collisions with other vehicles, and alert pedestrians, and can prevent a vehicle collision in a parking lot or a pedestrian from tripping over a vehicle stop block.

  It is preferable that an anti-slip pattern is formed on the bottom surface of the vehicle stop block. As a result, the car stopper block can be fixed to the ground, for example, with an adhesive or the like, regardless of a fixture such as an anchor pin.

  It is preferable that a hollow portion is provided inside the wheel stopper block. By providing the hollow portion, the weight of the car stopper block can be reduced, and the workability of installing the car stopper block is improved.

  According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a vehicle stop block provided with two functions of a vehicle stop function for reliably stopping the vehicle without overrun and a function of an advertising tower. Further, it is possible to provide a vehicle stop block that is excellent in durability, safety, design, and high visibility.

Hereinafter, with reference to the drawings, an embodiment which is an embodiment of a vehicle stop block of the present invention will be described.
FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a car stopper block 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention. It is preferable to manufacture the car stopper block of the present invention using recycled rubber of an old tire. It is preferable to set the hardness of the recycled rubber of the used old tire to be 50 to 70 degrees. By setting the hardness of the recycled rubber to 70 degrees or less, it is possible to absorb an impact when the vehicle is in contact with a tire and to suppress noise. On the other hand, when the recycled rubber has a hardness of 50 degrees or less, the wear becomes severe and a problem arises in durability. In addition, if the recycled rubber has a hardness in the range of 50 to 70 degrees, even if a pedestrian collides with the vehicle stop block due to a fall or the like, the impact can be sufficiently absorbed and the injury can be minimized. it can.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the structure of the vehicle stop block 1 is formed by a rectangular parallelepiped lower portion 12 and an inclined portion 13 having four trapezoidal inclined portions on the upper surface thereof. Further, the upper surface 14 of the inclined portion 13 is a flat surface. Here, one of the features of the present invention is that an advertisement placement unit 10 for displaying an advertisement such as a company name, a store name, or a product is formed on the longitudinal surface of the inclined portion 13. .

  The advertisement placement part 10 is formed so as to be a concave portion from the surface of the inclined part 13, and is formed so as not to directly contact the advertisement placement part 10 even when a vehicle tire abuts against the inclined part 13. . By attaching a plate displaying advertisement contents (company name, product name, store name, etc.) to the advertisement placement unit 10 or engraving characters or designs directly on the advertisement placement unit 10, the user can use the car stop block as an advertising tower. Can be used.

  In this example, recycled tire rubber was used as the material for the car stopper block 1. Since the recycled rubber used here has a hardness of 70 degrees or less, the advertisement content can be engraved in the advertisement placement unit 10 later. For example, in the case of manufacturing by a mold press, the advertisement content may be formed at the same time by forming the advertisement content in the mold.

  In the present embodiment, recycled tire rubber is used as the material for the car stopper block 1, but the present invention is not limited to this, and various modifications are possible. For example, it goes without saying that the material includes natural rubber, synthetic rubber, and other similar materials.

  A hollow portion is formed inside the car stopper block 1. This is because by providing a hollow portion inside the inclined portion 13, when the inclined portion 13 comes into contact with the tire of the vehicle, the entire portion is deformed together with the hollow portion to give a force that resists the progress of the tire.

  The vehicle stop block 1 is configured such that an anchor pin can be driven from the upper surface 14 and can be fixed to the ground. The position where the car stopper block 1 is installed is determined, a hole is drilled from the upper surface 14 to the anchor hole 15b (see FIG. 4) on the bottom surface 15 with a drill or the like, and an anchor pin is driven into the hole to fix it to the ground. After the anchor pin is driven, the cap 11 covers the anchor pin.

  Here, it is preferable to attach an aluminum plate (aluminum reflector) to the advertisement placement unit 10. A car stop block manufactured using recycled rubber made of old tires is black. On the other hand, if a white silver aluminum plate is affixed to the advertisement placement part 10, the visibility can be further enhanced due to the contrast. In addition, the aluminum plate is excellent in corrosion resistance and workability, and is advantageous in terms of cost as compared with stainless steel and the like, which is preferable.

  FIG. 2 is a view showing a state in which a vehicle tire abuts against the vehicle stop block 1. Since the lower part 12 of the car stopper block 1 is a rectangular parallelepiped, overrun of the vehicle can be more reliably prevented as compared with the conventional car stop block in which the inclined portion 13 extends to the ground.

  Further, a reflecting member attaching portion 16 for attaching a fluorescent tape, for example, is formed on the inclined portion of the lower portion 12 in the short direction. By sticking the reflecting member to the reflecting member attaching portion 16, the visibility of a pedestrian moving in the parking lot can be enhanced. As a result, for example, an elderly person or an infant can trip on the car stop block 1 and reduce the probability of an accident.

  FIG. 3A is a side view of the car stopper block 1 in the longitudinal direction. In this embodiment, the vehicle stop block 1 has a longitudinal width of about 550 mm, the lower portion 12 has a height of about 45 mm, the inclined portion 13 has a height of about 65 mm, and the upper surface 14 has a longitudinal width of about 405 mm. Here, the advertisement placement unit 10 has a length of 387 mm and a height of 48 mm.

  FIG. 3B is a cross-sectional view of the vehicle stopper block 1 in the short direction. As shown in FIG. 3B, a cavity is formed inside. Thereby, the impact when the tire of a vehicle contacts can be buffered, and the whole weight can be reduced.

  FIG. 4 is a view showing the bottom surface 15 of the car stopper block 1. When an anchor pin is hit from the upper surface 14, it penetrates the anchor hole 15b and is fixed to the ground. Further, as shown in FIG. 4, dot-like projections 15a are formed on the bottom surface 15, and a pattern as shown in FIG. 4 is formed. By making the bottom surface 15 of the car stopper block 1 into such a pattern, the adhesiveness between the bottom surface 15 and the ground is improved, and it can be fixed only by an adhesive without using an anchor pin.
