DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0016]
Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
[0017]
(One embodiment of a safety indicator such as a vehicle)
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a safety indicator 1 such as a vehicle according to the present embodiment includes a mounting member 2, a safety display member 3 erected on the mounting member 2, and these mounting members. 2 and the elastic member 4 which connects the safety display member 3.
[0018]
The mounting member 2 serves as a mounting table mounted on the ground, and wood or bamboo such as thinned wood is used. The mounting member 2 according to the present embodiment is formed by forming a concave fitting portion at the center of two plate-shaped timbers and assembling them in a cross shape through an adhesive. Further, yellow paint is applied to the surface of the mounting member 2. The mounting member 2 may have a single plate shape such as a square shape or a disk shape.
[0019]
The safety display member 3 displays a safe position of a vehicle or the like, and bamboo is used. The safety display member 3 has a substantially cylindrical shape, a light reflecting portion 6 is provided on the upper side, and a lower base end portion 3a is formed in a substantially inverted conical shape. That is, the outer peripheral shape of the proximal end portion 3 a of the safety display member 3 is formed in a tapered shape so as to contact the mounting member 2 in a point state. This is to increase the range in which the safety display member 3 swings while the safety display member 3 and the mounting member 2 are closely connected. The light reflecting portion 6 reflects the position of the safety indicator 1 with a light of a vehicle or the like, and is provided with a reflecting mirror or a fluorescent paint. Instead of the light reflecting portion 6, a mirror or flag may be raised to notify the position of the safety indicator 1, or further, a light bulb or the like may be attached to electrically notify the position.
[0020]
The safety indicating member 3 can be easily manufactured by using the bamboo and cutting it while leaving the joints F1 and F1 (see FIG. 4). A hole 3b for fitting the elastic member 4 is formed in the center of the tapered base end 3a.
[0021]
Next, the elastic member 4 connects the safety display member 3 so as to be swingable, and includes a spring member, a spring, a rubber member, and the like. The elastic member 4 of the present embodiment has a rod-like outer peripheral shape, one end 4 a is integrally connected to the center of the mounting member 2, and the other end 4 b is the base end portion of the safety display member 3. The hole 3b is formed at the center of 3a. In the embodiment shown in FIG. 2, one end 4 a of the elastic member 4 is fitted in a hole 2 a formed in the center of the mounting member 2, and the other end 4 b is in the center of the base end portion 3 a of the safety display member 3. They are connected together. Further, both ends 4a and 4b of the elastic member 4 may be fitted and connected to the hole 2a.
[0022]
In this case, it is possible to firmly connect the holes 2a and 3b via an adhesive, but in the present embodiment, no adhesive or the like is used, and the holes 2a, 2b, Only the both ends of the elastic member 4 are fitted to 3b. Therefore, it is configured to be easily removed when a strong external impact is applied. As the elastic member 4, the safety display member 3 can swing by using a bundle of bamboo branches. In addition, it is also possible to provide a connecting member such as a hook piece for connecting the mounting member 2 and the safety display member 3 to both end portions 4a and 4b of the elastic member 4 and to fix them together.
[0023]
Therefore, when the safety indicator 1 of a vehicle or the like of the present embodiment is used on a road, it is continuously placed at a position where entry of vehicles such as construction sites is prohibited as in the case of the conventional safety pole. Just arrange. However, in the safety indicator 1 such as a vehicle of the present embodiment, the elastic member 4 is connected to the safety indicator 3 so that the safety indicator 3 can swing. There is no such thing as moving to or falling over easily. Further, when the traveling vehicle C or the like vigorously collides with the safety indicator 1 of the vehicle or the like, both ends 4a and 4b of the elastic member 4 are merely fitted into the holes 2a and 3b. Therefore, it is easily detached when a strong impact is applied, and it is not left on the road diagonally or the vehicle or the like is not dragged as it is, unlike the conventional safety pole. Further, the body of the vehicle or the like C is not damaged. Further, according to the present embodiment, at night when wind is strong, the safety display member 3 swings and does not easily fall. However, the swinging of the light reflecting portion 6 and the light bulb causes the vehicle. It also has the effect of exerting a strong attention on the driver of C. In addition, according to the said fitting structure, there exists an advantage by which the assembly of the safety indicators 1, such as a vehicle, becomes very easy.
[0024]
On the other hand, when the safety indicator 1 such as a vehicle is used in a parking lot, it can be used, for example, at a rear stop position as shown in FIG. If it is arranged at the rear stop position, even if the stop position is difficult to recognize even if the vehicle C or the like comes back, the safety display member 3 moves even if the safety indicator 1 of the vehicle or the like is touched. Or fall easily. When the driver notices the contact and moves the vehicle C or the like forward, the safety display member 3 returns to the original position by the return force of the elastic member 4. Therefore, the position of the safety display member 3 is not changed, and the safety display member 3 itself is not damaged.
[0025]
Here, an application example of the present embodiment will be described. In this application example, as shown in FIG. 4, bamboo such as moso bamboo or true bamboo is used as the safety display member 3 of the above embodiment. That is, an internal cavity 7 is formed by cutting between the bamboo nodes F1 and F2. And the hole 3b which fits the said elastic member 4 is formed in the center of the said lower side node F2. On the other hand, the mounting member 2 has a conical protrusion 8 at the center.
[0026]
Therefore, according to the above application example, bamboo is used as the safety display member 3, so that the processing for forming the internal cavity 7 as in the above embodiment is unnecessary, and the other end 4b of the elastic member 4 is fitted. The mating hole 3b can also be easily formed. Moreover, since the conical protrusion 8 is provided at the center of the mounting member 2, the safety display member 3 is closely connected to the mounting member 2 via the elastic member 4. 3 is set large. In the application example shown in FIG. 4, both the mounting member 2 and the light reflecting portion 6 are manufactured by cutting bamboo into an annular shape, and fluorescent paint or luminescent paint is applied to the bamboo nodes F1 and F2. It is also possible. In this case, since the paint of the light reflecting portion 6 is surrounded by the outer periphery of the bamboo, it does not easily fall due to rain or snow.
[0027]
(One embodiment of a barricade using a safety indicator such as a vehicle)
As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the barricade 11 using the safety indicator such as the vehicle of the present embodiment has two safety indicators 1 </ b> A and 1 </ b> B of the vehicle of the above embodiment, and these Each of the safety display members 3 is assembled with a rod-like member 12 or a string-like member.
[0028]
First, a locking member 13 is provided above the safety display member 3 of the safety indicators 1A and 1B of two vehicles or the like. The locking member 13 is used to hang the rod-like member 12 and the string-like member, and is attached to the outer periphery of the safety display member 3. The locking member 13 of the present embodiment is attached to the outer periphery of the safety display member 3 with an adhesive obtained by cutting bamboo into an annular shape. Note that the rod-like member 12 of the present embodiment uses bamboo such as Moso bamboo or true bamboo. Moreover, a string, a rope, etc. can be used as a string-like member. Here, a plurality of the locking members 13 can be attached to the outer periphery of the safety display member 3 to connect a plurality of the rod-shaped members 12 and the string-shaped members.
[0029]
Therefore, when the rod-like member 12 or the string-like member is hung over the locking member 13 of the safety indicator member 3 of the safety indicator 1 such as the above-mentioned two vehicles, the barricade 11 for prohibiting entry of the vehicle or the like is configured. It becomes. Such a barricade 11 can of course be assembled by arranging two or more safety indicators 1 such as the vehicle. Further, by providing a plurality of the locking members 13 and assembling the barricade 11 into a U shape or assembling it in a straight line, various assembling methods are possible depending on the purpose.
[0030]
By the way, the rod-shaped member 12 can be horizontally mounted even with the conventional conical safety pole. However, the barricade 11 using a safety indicator such as a vehicle according to the present embodiment returns to its original position after the safety indicator 3 is swung in response to an external impact by the elastic member 4. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 6, even if the vehicle or the like C contacts, it does not fall easily. That is, when the vehicle or the like C contacts the safety indicator 1A side of one vehicle or the like, the safety indicator member 3 only on this one side is swung, but the side of the safety indicator 1B of the other vehicle or the like is the original. Because he tries to keep his posture, he will not fall easily. In addition, since the barricade 11 of this embodiment and the safety indicators 1A and 1B of the vehicle of the above embodiment are composed of wood or bamboo such as thinning material, thinning material or the like In the case of incineration, no harmful substances are scattered in the atmosphere as in the case of a conventional safety pole made of synthetic resin. In particular, when the elastic member 4 is manufactured by bundling bamboo branches, all components are naturally present, so there is no concern about air pollution.
[0031]
Here, when the rod-shaped member 12 is horizontally mounted, as shown in FIG. 7, it is possible to use the locking member 13 having a bamboo node F3 at the center. In the case where the locking member 13 is constituted by such bamboo, a plurality of rod-like members 12 can be connected at the same height. Further, when the vehicle etc. C comes into contact with the safety indicator 1A side of one vehicle etc., the side of the safety indicator 1B of the other vehicle etc. that does not come into contact even if one bar-like member 12 of this part comes off is In order to maintain the original posture, it is possible to prevent the other rod-shaped member 12 from coming off.
[0032]
As described above, in the present embodiment, the case where the above-described mounting member 2 is placed on a road, a parking lot, or the like has been described as an example. It is also possible to use the mounting member 2 described above embedded in the ground. And when using it for parking lots, such as soil and lawn, it is also possible to use a vegetation mat (or a vegetation block or a vegetation sheet) above the mounting member 2 or in place of the mounting member 2. . Moreover, although the case where it distributes to a road and the case where it distributes to a parking lot was demonstrated to the example, the safety indicator of the vehicle etc. of this invention is the safety indication of vehicles etc. also at other places, such as a construction site and a temporary parking lot. It can be used widely as a tool.
【The invention's effect】
[0033]
In the safety indicator such as a vehicle according to the present invention, since the safety indicator is connected by the elastic member, the safety indicator is swung with respect to an external impact such as a collision of the vehicle etc. After being absorbed, it will return to its original position. Therefore, since the safety display member does not fall down and the original position is not changed, the safety display effect for displaying the safe position of the vehicle or the like is enhanced. Further, when one end of the elastic member is detachably connected to a base end of the safety display member or a hole formed in the center of the mounting member, it can be easily assembled with a simple structure. In addition, when a strong external impact is applied, it is possible to effectively prevent the safety display member from coming off easily and damaging the body of the vehicle or the like or damaging the safety display member itself. . Moreover, the said safety indication member can be easily manufactured by using bamboo and cutting it leaving the knot.
[0034]
On the other hand, a barricade using a safety indicator such as a vehicle according to the present invention returns to its original position after each safety indicator member of the safety indicator such as at least two vehicles swings against an external impact. Therefore, even if a vehicle or the like comes into contact, it does not easily fall down, and the safety when used by being placed on a road or a parking lot is improved. In addition, it can be easily assembled in a parking lot or a construction site.
[0035]
In any of the above inventions, since the elements constituting the safety indicator are made of wood or bamboo such as thinned wood, the thinned wood can be effectively used and also made of plastic when incinerated. There is no risk of harmful substances being scattered in the atmosphere as in the case of a conventional safety pole made of
