Abstract

The rectangular traffic sign has an opaque surface provided with hollow letters and hollow marks (2, 3). The letters and the marks allow a light (4) from the sun to pass through them.

Description

La présente invention concerne la signalisation autoroutière et routière.The present invention relates to motorway and road signage.

Sur les tronçons de route ou d'autoroute orientés Est -Ouest ou Ouest Est, la lecture des textes apposés sur les panneaux pleins des portiques est pratiquement impossible au soleil couchant ou au soleil levant, étant donné l'éblouissement et le contre-jour. Des risques de freinage brusque ou de changements inopinés de direction des véhicules qui circulent pourraient en résulter.  On the east-west or west-facing sections of the road or highway, the reading of the texts affixed to the solid panels of the porticoes is practically impossible at sunset or at sunrise, given the glare and the backlighting. Sudden braking or unexpected changes in the direction of moving vehicles may result.

L'adjonction sur ces portiques de panneaux anti-éblouissement spécialement conçus pourraient résoudre ce problème de lecture.  The addition of specially designed anti-glare panels to these gantries could solve this reading problem.

La présente invention consiste à utiliser, pour concevoir ces panneaux, le procédé des lettres et signes évidés (2 et 3) dans la surface opaque (1) du panneau. Ces lettres et signes laisseraient alors passer la lumière (4), en permettant ainsi la lecture à contre-jour.  The present invention consists in using, for designing these panels, the process of letters and hollow signs (2 and 3) in the opaque surface (1) of the panel. These letters and signs would then let the light (4) pass, thus allowing reading against the light.

Le dessin annexé ( fig.l) illustre l'invention: il représente un panneau rectangulaire de signalisation placé devant une figure géométrique à multiples pointes représentant les rayons du soleil couchant, dont la lumière illumine, par contraste, les trous en forme de lettres découpés dans la surface.  The appended drawing (FIG. 1) illustrates the invention: it represents a rectangular signpost placed in front of a geometrical figure with multiple points representing the rays of the setting sun, whose light illuminates, in contrast, the holes in the form of cutout letters in the surface.
