Definitions
- the present invention refers to an improved beacon, whose improvements are intended to provide it with flexibility, while being reversibly deformable to provide it with a great resistance against possible abuses that may suffer from vehicles circulating on the road. area marked by beacons.
- the invention is preferably applicable in the signaling of airport runways, and more specifically the "taxiways", but it can also be used in road markings, and in general in any application where signaling by beacons is required. .
- signaling beacons comprising a body on whose surface at least one reflective band is disposed, and ground fixing means.
- these beacons are made of PVC which, due to changes in temperature and adverse weather, loses flexibility, so that in the event of possible impacts it breaks easily, which constitutes a serious inconvenience.
- the reflective bands are constituted by a ring arranged on the body of the beacon, whose configuration has the disadvantage that when exposed to the sun, and having to endure high temperatures, the dilation of the body and the band occurs, causing. its broth, which determines that the beacon loses its function main for which it was created, that is to be visible to the driver of the vehicle.
- the invention has developed a new beacon, which, like conventional ones, is provided with at least one reflective strip, and means for fixing the beacon to the ground are also provided; and that it is characterized in that the body is constituted by a flexible and reversibly deformable material, to avoid its breakage when it is rolled by the wheels of a vehicle, such as an airplane, truck, etc., and that it is also highly resistant to impacts that may suffer from vehicle casualties.
- the body of the beacon is solid, and preferably is constituted by a semi-rigid foam rubber, such as polyurethane, so that when the body is run over by the wheels of a vehicle, it flexes up to contact with the ground and when the wheels are placed on it it deforms, so that when it stops exerting pressure on the body, it recovers its vertical position and its original shape.
- a semi-rigid foam rubber such as polyurethane
- the ground fixing means are determined by an open housing on one of its faces through which a section of the body of the beacon is fitted tightly.
- the bottom of the housing comprises at least one hole through which the air that is dislodged when the tight introduction of the body is made. Subsequently the accommodation is received and fixed to the ground obtaining the hole, so that the extraction of the body is prevented by the vacuum that occurs when the housing is adjusted.
- the housing and the section of the body that is introduced therein are cylindrical, and said housing is opened by its upper base, and its lower base includes the hole.
- the housing is provided on its outer surface with at least one perimeter projection that prevents its removal from the ground once received and fixed therein.
- the section of the body that enters the housing is smaller in diameter than the rest of the body.
- the body is covered by a removable enveloping sheath on which the reflective strip is sewn.
- the cover comprises a longitudinal zipper to allow its adjustment on the body and its disassembly.
- the reflective band is sewn to the sheath, which is preferably made of nylon, prevents high temperatures from causing detachment of the reflective strip, as is conventionally the case, and also the fact that it is sewn onto the sheath. , allows you to make your replacement when it deteriorates.
- the housing has a narrowing close to its bottom • defined by a slightly tapered section to achieve a better fit between housing and body. Obviously to achieve this same functionality, it is possible that a widening is included in the upper part of the section that is introduced into the housing. conical
- Figure 1. Shows an exploded view of the different elements that make up the beacon, according to a possible embodiment of the invention.
- Figure 2. Shows a perspective view of the beacon in which the different elements that compose it have been mounted.
- Figure 3. Shows a longitudinal section of the beacon of the previous figure, attached to the ground.
- the beacon of the invention has a body 1 provided in its lower part with a section 2 of smaller diameter, the assembly being made of semi-rigid foam, such as polyurethane, for example, so that it is flexible and reversibly deformable.
- the beacon of the invention comprises a housing 3 that is provided with an annular projection 4, and at its bottom includes holes 8. Based on the description made, it is easily understood that this configuration allows the tight introduction of the section 2 into the housing 3, in which operation the air that moves the section 2 exits through the holes 8, as long as these are not sealed, so this operation should preferably be performed before fixing the housing on the ground.
- the section 2 Once the section 2 has been introduced in the housing 3, it is received and fixed on the ground by means of cement or any other means, fixing that is reinforced by the inclusion of the annular projection 4, so that if it is a question of extracting the beacon, The vacuum is formed at the bottom of the housing 3, which prevents the extraction of the beacon.
- the upper section of section 2 includes a slightly conical widening, so as to exert greater pressure against the walls of the housing. Obviously, this same effect is achieved if a conical section is arranged, in the lower section of the housing 3, which defines a narrowing, to exert greater pressure against the surface of the lower part of the section 2.
- the beacon of the invention has a sheath 5, which is provided with a zipper 6 that allows the fitted coupling on the body 1. Said zipper allows the disassembly of the sheath 5.
- a reflective band • 7 has been sewn onto the cover 5, which constitutes the signaling means of the beacon.
- This configuration allows that when the beacon is hit or stepped on by a vehicle, it bends on the part. upper section 2, turning 90 ° until contacting. ' the ground, producing its crushing and deformation, so that when it stops being stepped on, it returns to its vertical position and recovers its original shape, so that a highly resistant and durable beacon is obtained.
