Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Zusatzeinrichtung für insbesondere im Fahrbahnrandbereich in den Boden eingepflanzte Profilelemente.The invention relates to an additional device for profile elements implanted in the ground, in particular in the edge of the carriageway.

Unter der Bezeichnung im Fahrbahnrandbereich in den Boden eingepflanzte Profilelemente sind u.a. zu verstehen: Leitpfosten, Standrohre oder Träger von Verkehrsschildern, Masten von Beleuchtungskörpern und Masten allgemein, Tragstützen von Leitplanken, Pfosten von Verkehrsampeln, und ähnliches.Profile elements implanted in the ground in the area of the roadway include to understand: guide posts, standpipes or carriers of traffic signs, masts of lighting fixtures and masts in general, support supports of guardrails, posts of traffic lights, and the like.

Der Randbereich von Landstrassen, Schnellstrassen und Autobahnen, ebenso wie der Mittelstreifen bei Autobahnen, und oft auch der Strassenrand oder Mittelstreifen von Strassen innerorts, sind mit Gras bewachsen, welches mehrmals im Jahr gemäht werden muss. Die im Randbereich oder Mittelstreifen aufgestellten Leitpfosten, Verkehrsschilder, Beleuchtungskörper, Masten, Leitplanken, Verkehrsampeln behindern selbst oder durch die sie tragenden Standrohre, Träger, Masten, Tragstützen und Pfosten das maschinelle Mähen, wie dies von den Strassenbauverwaltungen heute üblich ist, und um sie herum bleibt ein mehr oder weniger breite Kreis ungemäht. Das in diesem Kreis stehende Gras muss dann von Hand nachgemäht werden. Dies ist ein arbeitsintensiver Vorgang, und es steht deshalb oft nicht genügend Personal zur Verfügung, so dass das ungemähte Gras oft längere Zeit stehen bleibt. Dabei verhindert es die Sicht z.B. auf die Leitpfosten und die Verkehrsschilder, die dann die ihnen zugedachte Funktion der sicheren Gestaltung des Verkehrs nicht mehr erfüllen können.The edge of country roads, expressways and highways, as well as the median strip on motorways, and often also the road edge or median strip of urban streets, are overgrown with grass, which has to be cut several times a year. The guide posts, traffic signs, lighting fixtures, masts, crash barriers, traffic lights installed in the edge area or median strips hinder machine mowing themselves or through the standpipes, beams, masts, supports and posts that carry them, as is customary today by the road construction authorities, and around them a more or less wide circle remains uncut. The grass in this circle must then be mowed by hand. This is a labor-intensive process and therefore there is often not enough personnel available, so that the uncut grass often remains for a long time. It prevents the view for example the L eitpfosten and which then can no longer meet the traffic signs their intended function of the safe design of the traffic.

Um das Stehenbleiben von Gras um diese Profilelemente herum zu verhindern, sind verschiedene Bauverwaltungen dazu übergegangen Gras- und Unkrautvertilgungamittel um die Profilelemente herum auszustreuen oder zu spritzen. Hierdurch wird das Nachmähen verhindert, weil das Gras in dem mit den Vertilgungsmitteln behandelten Bereich abstirbt, jedoch stellt das ausgestreute oder gespritzte Gift eine grosse Belastung der Umwelt dar, insbesondere weil es durch den Regen nicht nur in die Bäche gelangt, sondern mit dem Regen im Boden versickert und das Grundwasser verseuchen kann.In order to prevent grass from standing around these profile elements, various building authorities have started to sprinkle or spray grass and weed killing agents around the profile elements. This prevents re-mowing because the grass dies in the area treated with the exterminators, but the spread or sprayed poison is a great burden on the environment, especially because it not only gets into the streams through the rain, but with the rain in Soil seeps away and the groundwater can contaminate.

Auch ist z.B. für Leitpfosten eine besondere Konstruktion vorgeschlagen worden, die es einer besonders konstruierten Mähmaschine erlaubt, beim Mähen den Leitpfosten zu entfernen, über den Aufstellort des Leitpfostens hinweg zu mähen und den Leitpfosten nach Beendigung des Mähvorganges wieder aufzustellen. Dieses Verfahren bedingt nicht nur das Auswechseln aller Leitpfosten, sondern auch das Anschaffen entsprechender Mähmaschinen. Steht aber ein Verkehrsschild, eine Verkehrsampel oder ein Beleuchtungskörper in dem zu mähenden Strassenrandbereich, so kann auch dieses Mähverfahren hier das Stehenbleiben von Gras nicht verhindern.Also e.g. A special construction has been proposed for guide posts, which allows a specially designed mower to remove the guide post during mowing, mow across the location of the guide post, and set the guide post up again after the mowing process has ended. This procedure requires not only the replacement of all the guide posts, but also the purchase of appropriate mowers. However, if there is a traffic sign, a traffic light or a lighting fixture in the roadside area to be mowed, this mowing method cannot prevent grass from standing still.

Ausserdem besteht bei neuaufgestellten Profilelementen, insbesondere bei Leitpfosten, beim ersten schweren Regenfall die Gefahr der Verschmutzung durch Bespritzen durch die auf die frische Erde aufklatschenden Regentropfen. Diese Gefahr bleibt immer bei der oben beschriebenen Verwendung von Vertilgungsmitteln.In addition, with newly installed profile elements, especially with guide posts, there is a risk of contamination by splashing due to the rain drops splashing on the fresh earth during the first heavy rain. This danger always remains with the use of exterminators described above.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es eine Zusatzeinrichtung für im Fahrbahnrandbereich in den Boden eingepflanzte Profilelemente zu schaffen, die bei allen benutzten Querschnitten der Profilelemente ein Nachmähen verhindert, ohne dabei die geschilderten Nachteile zu haben.The object of the invention is to provide an additional device for profile elements planted in the ground in the edge of the roadway, which prevents mowing in all used cross sections of the profile elements without having the disadvantages described.

Erfindungsgemäss wird diese Aufgabe gelöst durch eine Zusatzeinrichtung für solche Profilelemente, die aus einer mit einer dem Querschnitt des Profilelementes entsprechenden Aussparung versehenen,mindestens weitgehend lichtundurchlässige Platte besteht, welche mit der Aussparung auf das Profilelement auffädelbar ist.According to the invention, this object is achieved by an additional device for such profile elements, which consists of an at least largely opaque plate provided with a cutout corresponding to the cross section of the profile element and which can be threaded onto the profile element with the cutout.

Weitere vorteilhafte Ausbildungsformen dieser Zusatzeinrichtung sind in den Unteransprüchen beschrieben.Further advantageous forms of training of this additional device are described in the subclaims.

Die Erfindung wird nun an Hand der beiliegenden Zeichnungen beispielsweise beschrieben. In den Zeichnungen sind:

  • Fig. l eine Draufsicht und eine Aussicht einer Zusatzeinrichtung nach der Erfindung für einen Leitpfosten;
  • Fig. 2 eine Draufsicht und eine Aussicht für eine Zusatzeinrichtung für ein Standrohr eines Verkehrsschildes;
  • Fig. 3 eine Draufsicht und eine Aussicht für eine Tragstütze für Leitplanken, und
  • Fig. 4 eine Detaildarstellung im Schnitt der Zusatzeinrichtung nach der Erfindung.
The invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, for example. In the drawings are:
  • Figure l is a plan view and a view of an additional device according to the invention for a guide post.
  • 2 shows a plan view and a view for an additional device for a standpipe of a traffic sign;
  • Fig. 3 is a plan view and a view for one Support for guardrails, and
  • Fig. 4 is a detailed view in section of the additional device according to the invention.

In den Figren 1 bis 3 ist die Zusatzeinrichtung 10 für verschiedene Verwendungszwecke dargestellt, so in Fig. 1 für einen Leitpfosten, in Fig. 2 für dasStandrohr eines Verkehrsschildes und in Fig. 3 für eine Tragstütze für Leitplanken. Die Zusatzeinrichtung ist nicht auf diese drei Verwendungszwecke begrenzt, sondern für alle im Fahrbahnrandbereich in den Boden eingepflanzte oder aufgestellte Profilelemente, wie sie weiter oben definiert worden sind, verwendbar, wobei sie auf die jeweilige Verwendung angepasst ist .In FIGS. 1 to 3, the additional device 10 is shown for various purposes, such as in FIG. 1 for a guide post, in FIG. 2 for the standpipe of a traffic sign and in FIG. 3 for a support for guard rails. The additional device is not limited to these three uses, but can be used for all profile elements which have been planted or set up in the ground in the road edge area, as defined above, and are adapted to the respective use.

Die Zusatzeinrichtung 10 besteht aus einer Platte 12, welche mit einer Aussparung 14 versehen ist. Die geometrische Form der Platte 12 ist nicht wesentlich und kann neben der dargestellten Kreisform, auch quadratisch, rechteckig, polygonal, elliptisch oder anderswie geformt sein. Ihre grösste Ausdehnungen sind auch nicht wesentlich und sind einerseits bedingt durch die Abmessungen des Profilelementes mit dem sie benutzt werden soll und dadurch, dass sie ein Nachmähen verhindern soll. So hat sich z.B. bei Leitpfosten für eine kreisrunde Platteein Durchmesser von 30 bis 50 cm als günstig erwiesen.The additional device 10 consists of a plate 12 which is provided with a recess 14. The geometric shape of the plate 12 is not essential and can be shaped in addition to the circular shape shown, also square, rectangular, polygonal, elliptical or otherwise. Their greatest dimensions are also not essential and on the one hand are due to the dimensions of the profile element with which it is to be used and the fact that it is intended to prevent mowing. For example, with guide posts for a circular plate with a diameter of 30 to 50 cm has proven to be favorable.

Die Aussparung 14 ist in ihrer Form dem Querschnitt des Profilelementes angepasst an dem die Zusatzeinrichtung verwendet werden soll. So hat die Aussparung 14 in Fig. 1 die Form des Querschnittes eines Leitpfostens, in Fig. 2 die Form des Querschnittes eines Standrohres und in Fig. 3 die Form des H-förmigen Querschnittes einer Tragstütze für Leitplanken. Die Aussparung muss so geformt sein, dass ihr innerer Rand bei Verwendung am Profilelement mit entsprechendem Querschnitt eng an der Aussenfläche des Profilelementes anliegt.The shape of the recess 14 is adapted to the cross section of the profile element on which the additional device is to be used. Thus, the recess 14 in FIG. 1 has the shape of the cross section of a guard post, in FIG. 2 the shape of the cross section of a standpipe and in FIG. 3 the shape of the H-shaped cross section of a support for guard rails. The recess must be shaped in such a way that its inner edge, when used on the profile element with a corresponding cross section, lies closely against the outer surface of the profile element.

Die Lage der Aussparung 14 in der Platte 12 ist nicht wesentlich, soll aber so sein, dass der Graswuchs im gewünschten Bereich um das Profilelement verhindert wird. Vorzugsweise liegen die Mittelpunkte der Platte 12 und der Aussparung in etwa aufeinander.The position of the recess 14 in the plate 12 is not essential, but should be such that grass growth is prevented in the desired area around the profile element. The center points of the plate 12 and the recess preferably lie approximately on top of one another.

Die Platte 12 kann aus jedem beliebigen Material hergestellt werden. Das Material soll womöglich keine Wartung (z.B. Korrosionsschutz, Fäulnisschutz) benötigen und schlagfest sein; deshalb wird die Platte 12 vorzugsweise aus schlagfestem Kunststoff, insbesonders glasfaserverstärktem Kunststoff hergestellt.The plate 12 can be made of any material. The material should probably not require any maintenance (e.g. corrosion protection, protection against decay) and should be impact-resistant; Therefore, the plate 12 is preferably made of impact-resistant plastic, in particular glass fiber reinforced plastic.

Die notwendige Biegefestigkeit wird entweder über eine entsprechende Materialdicke, oder bei verringerter Dicke durch Wölben der Platte 12 erreicht. Diese Wölbung ist in den Figuren durch den Buchstaben "W" gekennzeichnet; dies ist in Fig. 4 besonders deutlich erkennbar.The necessary bending strength is achieved either by means of a corresponding material thickness or, if the thickness is reduced, by arching the plate 12. This curvature is identified in the figures by the letter "W"; this can be seen particularly clearly in FIG. 4.

Die Zusatzeinrichtung kann bei neuaufgestellten Profilelementen verwendet werden, ebenso wie bei bereits aufgestellten Profilelementen. Bei einem Leitpfosten wird nach seiner Aufstellung eine Zusatzeinrichtung 10 nach Fig. 1 von oben mit der Aussparung 14, bei entsprechender Ausrichtung, auf den Leitpfosten aufgefädelt und gegen den Boden angedrückt. Selbstverständlich wurde vorher alles Gras in dem von der Zusatzeinrichtung bedeckten Bereicht entfernt. Da die Zusatzeinrichtung dem unter ihr liegenden Bodenbereich das Sonnenlicht weitgehend oder ganz entzieht, wird das Spriessen und Wachsen von Gräsern und dergleichen in diesem Bereich wirksam verhindert. Der schlüssige Sitz zwischen Platte 12 und dem'Profilelement, bzw. Leitpfosten, verhindert Graswuchs zwischen diesen beiden Teilen.The additional device can be used with newly installed profile elements, as well as with already installed profile elements. In the case of a guide post, after it has been set up, an additional device 10 according to FIG. 1 is threaded from above with the cutout 14, with appropriate alignment, onto the guide post and pressed against the ground. Of course, all grass was previously removed in the area covered by the additional device. Since the additional device largely or completely extracts sunlight from the floor area below it, the sprouting and growing of grasses and the like in this area is effectively prevented. The tight fit between plate 12 and the 'profile element or guide post prevents grass growth between these two parts.

Beim Mähen wird daher kein Gras mehr um den Leitpfosten herum stehen bleiben und ein Nachmähen erübrigt sich.Therefore, when mowing, there will be no grass left around the guide post and mowing is no longer necessary.

Ist das für die Platte 12 verwendete Material zu stark lichtdurchlässig, so wird es bei der Herstellung der Platte eingefärbt, um es ausreichend, bzw. vollkommen lichtundurchlässig zu machen. Da die Platte den das Profilbereich, bzw. Leitpfosten umgebenen Bodenbereich abdeckt, wird auch ein Verschmutzen des Leitpfostens durch Spritzer bei Regen vermieden.If the material used for the plate 12 is too translucent, it is colored during the manufacture of the plate in order to make it sufficient or completely opaque. Since the plate covers the floor area surrounding the profile area or guide post, contamination of the guide post by splashes in the rain is also avoided.

Bei allen anderen im Fahrbahnrandbereich aufgestellten Profilelementen wird entsprechend verfahren und eine Zusatzeinrichtung 10 mit einer dem Querschnitt des verwendeten Profilelementes entsprechender Aussparung 12 von oben (oder unten) auf das Profilelement aufgefädelt und nach dem Aufstellen des Profilelementes nach unten gegen den Boden gedrückt.In the case of all other profile elements set up in the edge of the roadway, the procedure is analogous and an additional device 10 with a recess 12 corresponding to the cross section of the profile element used from above (or below) threaded onto the profile element and after setting up the profile element pressed down against the floor.

Bei bereits aufgestellten Profilelementen, die ein Auffädeln der Platte 12 von oben herab nicht zulassen (wie bei Leitplanken, Leuchtkörpern usw.), kommen in mindestens zwei Teile geteilte Platten zum Einsatz, die z.B. mittels Laschen und Nieten, oder durch Vernieten, Verschrauben oder Verschweissen von sich überlappenden Plattenteilen miteinander verbunden werden. Diese für den Fachmann geläufige Massnahmen zum Verbinden von plattenförmigen Teilen sind nicht dargestellt.In the case of profile elements which have already been set up and which do not allow the plate 12 to be threaded from above (as is the case with crash barriers, lighting elements, etc.), plates which are divided into at least two parts are used, e.g. by means of tabs and rivets, or by riveting, screwing or welding overlapping plate parts together. These measures which are familiar to the person skilled in the art for connecting plate-shaped parts are not shown.

Zum Verbessern des Sitzes der Platte 12 auf dem Profilelement und zum Verbessern der Bündigkeit zwischen Platte 12 und der Aussenfläche des Profilelementes P kann, wie in Fig. 4 dargestellt, um die Aussparung 14 herum eine Manschette 16 der Breite "ü" vorgesehen sein. Diese kann sich, wie dargestellt, über der Platte erheben, kann sich aber in bestimmten Anwendungsfällen nach unten von der Platte 12 weg erstrecken. Die Höhe "ü" der Manschette 16 ist hauptsächlich durch die Abmessungen des Querschnittes des Profils P bestimmt und soll"bewirken, dass die Platte l2 schlüssiger auf dem Profil P sitzt und eventuellen Graswuchs zwischen Platte 12 und Profil P noch wirksamer verhindert.In order to improve the fit of the plate 12 on the profile element and to improve the flushness between the plate 12 and the outer surface of the profile element P, as shown in FIG. 4, a sleeve 16 of the width "ü" can be provided around the recess 14. As shown, this can rise above the plate, but in certain applications can extend downward from the plate 12. The height "ü" of the collar 16 is mainly determined by the dimensions of the cross section of the profile P and is intended to "cause the plate 12 to sit more firmly on the profile P and prevent grass growth between the plate 12 and profile P even more effectively.

An der Unterseite der Platte 12 können Spitzen (nicht dargestellt) vorgesehen sein, welche beim Andrücken der Platten an den Boden in diesen eindringen und die Platte im Boden sozusagen verankern.On the underside of the plate 12, tips (not shown) can be provided, which penetrate into the floor when the plates are pressed and anchor the plate in the floor, so to speak.

Es ist ohne weiteres vorstellbar, dass man am Profilelement vorstehende Nasen/über die Zusatzeinrichtung 10 beim Auffädeln hinweggeschoben wird, in solcher Höhe anbringt, dass sie die Platte 12 gegen den Boden drücken und gegen eine Herausnahme sichern.It is easily conceivable that protruding lugs on the profile element / are pushed over the additional device 10 during threading, mounted at such a height that they press the plate 12 against the floor and secure it against removal.
