A plurality of supports extend essentially at right angles to the middle piece with support surfaces extending essentially symmetrically to the middle piece provided at the middle piece. The said support surfaces are arranged at mutually spaced locations from one another at the middle piece to achieve the deformability of the middle piece. Two respective, mutually adjacent guide sections can be detachably connected to one another by means of a coupling piece engaging spaces located between the supports.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Leitschutzsystem, insbesondere zur Sicherung von Verkehrswegen.The invention relates to a control system, in particular for securing Traffic routes.

Der Begriff "Verkehrswege" ist dabei im weitesten Sinne zu verstehen. So kann das Leitschutzsystem zur Abtrennung oder Sicherung von Fahrspuren an Baustellen oder Plätzen, oder zur Abtrennung von im Bereich von Verkehrswegen aufgestellten Pflanzinseln oder Pflanzkübeln dienen. Auch kann ein solches Leitschutzsystem Verwendung finden zur Trennung von Fahrspuren auf Autobahnen oder in Straßen oder zur Verengung von Fahrspuren beispielsweise zum Zwecke einer Geschwindigkeitsreduzierung. Schließlich kann ein derartiges Leitschutzsystem auch innerhalb von großflächigen Hallen eingesetzt werden, um auch dort Verkehrswege, nämlich Fahrspuren für sogenannte Go-Karts oder diesen ähnliche motorgetriebene Fahrzeuge zu bilden.The term "traffic routes" is to be understood in the broadest sense. So can be used to separate or secure lanes at construction sites or places, or for the separation of in the area of Planting islands or planters are used for traffic routes. Also Such a control system can be used to separate Lanes on highways or in streets or for narrowing Lanes, for example, for the purpose of speed reduction. Finally, such a control system can also within large-scale halls are used to cover traffic routes, namely lanes for so-called go-karts or similar to form motor vehicles.

Ein solches Leitschutzsystem ist in der zur Bildung des Oberbegriffes des Patentanspruches 1 herangezogenen EP 0 618 332 A1 beschrieben.Such a control system is used to form the generic term of Claim 1 used EP 0 618 332 A1 described.

Das Leitschutzsystem gemäß dieser Veröffentlichung wird im wesentlichen von einer Vielzahl von hintereinander angeordneten und miteinander verbundenen Leitstücken gebildet. Diese Leitstücke sind derart ausgebildet, daß das Ende eines ersten Leitstückes jeweils mit dem Anfang des ihm folgenden nächsten Leitstückes verbunden werden kann. Um hierbei mit einer einzigen Form der Leitstücke auszukommen, weisen diese an ihrem einen Ende einen zapfenförmigen und an ihrem anderen Ende einen lageraugenförmigen Ansatz zur Aufnahme des jeweiligen Zapfens auf. Die beiden Ansätze sind dabei derart ausgebildet bzw derart am Leitstück angeordnet, daß der Zapfen eines jeweils nachfolgenden Leitstückes von oben in den lageraugenförmigen Ansatz eines vorausgehenden Leitstückes eingeführt wird.The guidance protection system according to this publication becomes essentially of a multitude of one behind the other and with each other connected guide pieces formed. These guide pieces are designed such that the end of a first leading piece each with the beginning of it following next guide piece can be connected. To do this with to get by a single form of the guide pieces, they show on their one end a cone-shaped and one at its other end bearing-eye-shaped approach to receiving the respective pin. The Both approaches are designed in this way or on the guide piece arranged that the pin of a subsequent guide piece of above in the bearing-eye-shaped approach of a preceding guide piece is introduced.

Die derart ausgebildeten Leitstücke lassen sich zwar relativ leicht zu einem Leitschutzsystem montieren, jedoch ist ein solches Leitschutzsystem mit dem Nachteil behaftet, daß beispielsweise beim Ersatz eines Leitstückes dieses nicht ohne weiteres dem Leitschutzsystem entnommen werden kann. Vielmehr ist es erforderlich, vom Ende des Leitschutzsystems her alle Leitstücke bis zu dem auszuwechselnden Leitstück zu entfernen; erst dann ist es möglich das schadhaft gewordene Leitstück auszutauschen.The guide pieces designed in this way are relatively easy to form one Assemble the command and control system, however such a command and control system is compatible with the Disadvantageous, for example when replacing a guide piece, this cannot be easily removed from the control system. Rather, it is necessary to all from the end of the control system Remove guiding pieces up to the guiding piece to be replaced; only then is it is possible to replace the damaged guide piece.

Sofern mit dem vorbeschriebenen Leitschutzsystem ein in sich geschlossener Bereich abgegrenzt werden soll, was beispielsweise zum Abgrenzen einer Verkehrsinsel, eines Pflanzbereiches oder der Abgrenzung einer Fahrbahn für eine Go-Kart-Rennstecke geschehen kann, ergeben sich mit den Leitstücken des vorbeschriebenen Leitschutzsystems insofern Schwierigkeiten, als zum Schließen eines solchen Bereiches oder der Rennstrecke entweder ein besonders ausgebildetes Endstück erforderlich ist, oder aber das letzte Leitstück nur unter erschwerten Bedingungen montiert werden kann.If a self-contained with the previously described control system Area should be delimited, for example, to delimit a Traffic island, a planting area or the delimitation of a lane for a go-kart race can happen with the guides Difficulties of the above-described control system as to Include such an area or the race track either specially trained end piece is required, or the last Guide piece can only be assembled under difficult conditions.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, ein gattungsgemäßes Leitschutzsystem zu schaffen, das unter Gewährleistung einheitlicher Leitstücke einerseits einen schnellen Austausch schadhaft gewordener Leitstücke ermöglicht und andererseits in seiner Bahnführung flexibel ist.The invention has for its object a generic Guard system to create that while ensuring more uniform Guiding principles on the one hand a quick exchange of damaged ones Guiding elements enabled and on the other hand is flexible in its routing.

Diese Aufgabe wird bei einem gattungsgemäßen Leitschutzsystem dadurch gelöst, daß jedes Leitstück ein zur Richtung des Verkehrsweges im wesentlichen parallel gerichtetes und quer zu seiner Längsachse elastisch verformbares Mittelstück aufweist, und am Mittelstück eine Mehrzahl von quer zu diesem verlaufende Stützen mit zum Mittelstück symmetrisch angeordneten Auflageflächen vorgesehen sind, die zur Erzielung der Verformbarkeit des Mittelstückes in gegenseitigem Abstand zueinander an diesem angeordnet sind, wobei jeweils zwei einander benachbarte Leitstücke mittels eines in die zwischen den Stützen gelegene Zwischenräume eingreifenden Kupplungsstückes lösbar miteinander verbindbar sind. This is achieved in a generic control system solved that each guide piece to the direction of the traffic route in essentially parallel and elastic transverse to its longitudinal axis deformable middle piece, and on the middle piece a plurality of transverse to this extending supports with symmetrical to the center piece arranged bearing surfaces are provided, which are used to achieve the Deformability of the center piece at a mutual distance from each other this are arranged, each with two adjacent guide pieces by means of an intermediate space between the supports engaging coupling piece are releasably connectable.

Durch die erfindungsgemäße Lehre, das Mittelteil elastisch verformbar auszubilden und die Stützen in gegenseitigem Abstand am Mittelteil anzuordnen, kann das gesamte Leitstück unter Einhaltung eines Mindestradius in jede beliebige Kurvenform elastisch verformt, d.h. in jede beliebige Kurvenform gebogen und -soweit erforderlich- in dieser Form auf einer Grundfläche fixiert werden. Sofern sich die entsprechende Kurvenform aus mehreren Leitstücken zusammensetzt, kann diese Form gleichzeitig mit dem zwei einander benachbarte Leitstücke verbindenden Kupplungsstück fixiert werden, wobei die beiden Flansche des Kupplungsstückes in die zwischen den Stützen gelegene Zwischenräume eingreifen.
Die Anordnung von Zwischenräumen zwischen den einzelnen Stützen verleiht dem Leitstück einerseits seine Biegefähigkeit, andererseits ergibt sich durch die Bildung einer Kurvenform an der der Fahrbahn zugekehrten Seite des Leitstückes eine nahezu ununterbrochene Auflauffläche für die kurvenaußenseitigen Räder des Fahrzeuges. Die einzelnen Stützen, bzw das entsprechende Leitstück kann somit Seitenkräfte des Fahrzeuges elastisch abfangen, wobei sich das Leitstück unter Einwirkung solcher Seitenkräfte elastisch verformen und nach Wegfall der Seitenkräfte wieder in seine Ausgangslage zurück kehren kann.
Through the teaching according to the invention of making the middle part elastically deformable and arranging the supports at a mutual spacing on the middle part, the entire guide piece can be elastically deformed into any curve shape while observing a minimum radius, ie bent into any curve shape and, if necessary, in this shape be fixed on a base. If the corresponding curve shape is composed of a plurality of guide pieces, this shape can be fixed simultaneously with the coupling piece connecting two adjacent guide pieces, the two flanges of the coupling piece engaging in the intermediate spaces located between the supports.
The arrangement of gaps between the individual supports gives the guide piece its ability to bend on the one hand, and on the other hand, the formation of a curve shape on the side of the guide piece facing the carriageway results in an almost uninterrupted contact surface for the outside wheels of the vehicle. The individual supports or the corresponding guide piece can thus elastically absorb lateral forces of the vehicle, the guide piece being elastically deformed under the action of such lateral forces and being able to return to its starting position after the lateral forces have ceased to exist.

Eine fertigungstechnisch einfache Ausführung der Leitstücke ergibt sich dadurch, das Mittelstück und die Stützen eines jeden Leitstückes einstückig ausgebildet sind.A production-technically simple execution of the guide pieces results thereby, the middle piece and the supports of each guide piece in one piece are trained.

Zum Angriff des Kupplungsstückes an den Leitstücken weist jedes Leitstück im Bereich seines oberen Endes zumindest an seinen beiden stirnseitigen Endbereichen je eine zu seiner Längsachse im wesentlichen parallel gerichtete Ausnehmung auf, die sich in einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform über die gesamte Länge des Leitstückes erstrecken kann. In diesem Fall kann das Leitstück an jeder beliebigen Stelle gekürzt und als End- oder Zwischenstück in das Leitschutzsystem eingefügt werden.Each guide piece points to the coupling piece attacking the guide pieces in the area of its upper end at least on its two frontal sides End areas one essentially parallel to its longitudinal axis directed recess, which is in a preferred embodiment can extend over the entire length of the guide piece. In this case the guide piece can be shortened at any point and as an end or Intermediate piece can be inserted into the control system.

Eine vorteilhafte Ausbildung des Kupplungsstückes ergibt sich dadurch daß dieses einen in die Ausnehmung das Leitstückes eingreifenden Steg mit an seinen stirnseitigen Enden angeordneten Flanschen aufweist. Zum Verbinden zweier Leitstücke ist es daher nur erforderlich, die entsprechenden Leitstücke dicht aneinander zu stellen und die beiden Flansche des Kupplungsstückes so weit in die einander benachbarten Zwischenräume der Leitstücke einzuschieben, bis sich der Steg des Kupplungsstückes innerhalb der Ausnehmungen der Leitstücke befindet. Die beiden in die Zwischenräume der beiden Leitstücke ragenden Flansche übernehmen dabei eine Sicherung der Leitstücke in ihrer Längsrichtung, während der in die Ausnehmungen eingreifende Steg die Sicherung der Leitstücke in der zu ihrer Längsrichtung quer verlaufenden Richtung übernimmt. Auf diese Weise können die Leitstücke miteinander oder Leitstücke mit End- oder Zwischenstücken ohne Zuhilfenahme von gesonderten Befestigungsmitteln, wie beispielsweise Schrauben, miteinander verbunden werden.An advantageous embodiment of the coupling piece results from that this has a web engaging in the recess of the guide piece has flanges arranged at its front ends. To the It is therefore only necessary to connect two guide pieces, the corresponding ones Place the guide pieces close together and the two flanges of the Coupling piece so far into the adjacent spaces between Insert guide pieces until the web of the coupling piece is inside the recesses of the guide pieces. The two in the gaps the flanges protruding from the two guiding pieces take over a fuse of the guide pieces in their longitudinal direction, while in the recesses engaging web securing the guide pieces in the longitudinal direction transverse direction takes over. That way they can Lead pieces with each other or lead pieces with end or intermediate pieces without With the help of separate fasteners, such as Screws to be connected.

Eine für das Fahrverhalten günstige Ausführungform der Leitstücke ergibt sich dadurch, daß jede Stütze eine Auflauffläche aufweist, die im Bereich ihrer Auflagefläche mit einer Schrägfläche beginnt und in sich in einer konvex gekrümmten Fläche fortsetzt.A design of the guide pieces which is favorable for the driving behavior results is characterized in that each support has a ramp surface in the area of their Contact surface begins with an inclined surface and in itself in a convex curved surface continues.

Weitere Vorteile und Einzelheiten der Erfindung ergeben sich aus den weiteren Unteransprüchen sowie der Beschreibung von in der beigefügten Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispielen der Erfindung.Further advantages and details of the invention result from the further subclaims and the description of in the attached Drawing illustrated embodiments of the invention.

In Fig 1 ist ein Leitstück 1 des Leitschutzsystems in gebogener Form dargestellt. Das Leitstück 1 kann innerhalb des Leitschutzsystems entweder die in Fig. 2 gezeigte gebogene Form oder eine gerade Form einnehmen, wie sie in Fig 3 dargestellt ist. Gerade und gebogene Leitstücke können in beliebiger Reihenfolge angeordnet werden, die dann mit Hilfe von Kupplungsstücken 2 miteinander verbunden werden können. Da sämtliche Leitstücke 1 und auch sämtliche Kupplungsstücke 2 des Leitschutzsystems jeweils eine identische Ausbildung aufweisen, wird die nachstehende Beschreibung auf jeweils eines dieser Leitstücke bzw eines der Kupplungsstücke beschränkt.In Fig. 1 is a guide piece 1 of the guide protection system in a curved shape shown. The Leitstück 1 can either within the Leitschutzsystem take the curved shape shown in Fig. 2 or a straight shape, such as it is shown in Fig. 3. Straight and curved guide pieces can be in in any order, which can then be arranged using Coupling pieces 2 can be connected to each other. Because everyone Guide pieces 1 and also all coupling pieces 2 of the guide protection system each have identical training, the following is Description on one of these guide pieces or one of the coupling pieces limited.

Das Leitstück 1 (Fig.4)weist ein Mittelteil 3 auf, das in Längsrichtung des Leitschutzsystems orientiert und aus einem elastisch verformbaren Material hergestellt ist. Das Mittelteil 3 weist einen vorzugsweise rechteckförmigen Querschnitt auf, sodaß es quer zu seiner Längsachse relativ leicht elastisch verformbar ist, parallel zu dieser jedoch starr ist. An dem Leitstück 1 sind in relativ geringen Abständen Stützen 4 vorgesehen, die in ihrem oberen Bereich das Mittelteil 3 umgreifen und an ihrem unteren Bereich symmetrisch zum Mittelteil 3 angeordnete Auflageflächen 5 aufweisen. In einer bevorzugten Ausführungsform sind das Mittelteil 3 und die Stützen 4 einstückig ausgebildet.The guide piece 1 (Figure 4) has a central part 3, which in the longitudinal direction of the Protection system oriented and made of an elastically deformable material is made. The middle part 3 has a preferably rectangular shape Cross-section so that it is relatively slightly elastic transversely to its longitudinal axis is deformable, but parallel to it is rigid. On the guide piece 1 are in relatively short distances supports 4 provided in their upper Grip the middle part 3 and symmetrically at its lower area to the central part 3 arranged support surfaces 5. In a preferred one Embodiment, the middle part 3 and the supports 4 are in one piece educated.

Wie aus Fig. 4 weiter ersichtlich ist, ist an den Stützen 4 oberhalb des Mittelteiles 3 eine Ausnehmung 6 vorgesehen. Die Ausnehmung 6 kann sich über die gesamte Länge des Leitstückes 1 erstrecken. In diesem Falle ist das gesamte Leitschutzsystem insoweit sehr flexibel, als zur Bildung von End-oder Zwischenstücken von einem Leitstück 1 nur eine entsprechende Länge abgetrennt werden muß, wobei die abgetrennten Längen in der gleichen Weise mit einem Leitstück 1 verbunden werden können, wie die Leitstücke 1 selbst.
Die Stützen 4 weisen in ihrem unteren Bereich Auflaufflächen 7 für das Fahrzeug auf, die im Bereich ihrer Auflageflächen 5 mit jeweils einer Schrägfläche beginnen und sich in konvex gekrümmten Flächen fortsetzen. Auch die Auflageflächen 5 sind symmetrisch zum Mittelteil 3 angeordnet.
As can also be seen from FIG. 4, a recess 6 is provided on the supports 4 above the central part 3. The recess 6 can extend over the entire length of the guide piece 1. In this case, the entire guide protection system is very flexible insofar as only a corresponding length has to be separated from a guide piece 1 in order to form end pieces or intermediate pieces, the separated lengths being able to be connected to a guide piece 1 in the same way as the guide pieces 1 yourself.
The supports 4 have run-up surfaces 7 for the vehicle in their lower region, which begin in the region of their support surfaces 5 with an inclined surface in each case and continue in convexly curved surfaces. The contact surfaces 5 are also arranged symmetrically to the central part 3.

Die zur Verbindung zweier Leitstücke 1 miteinander oder eines Leitstückes 1 mit einem End- oder Zwischenstück dienenden Kupplungsstücke 2 (Fig. 6) entsprechen im wesentlichen der Form eines U und weisen einen Steg 8, sowie zwei seitliche Flansche 9 auf, die an den Stirnseiten des Steges angeordnet sind. Zur Herstellung der Verbindung zweier Leitstücke 1 miteinander oder eines Leitstückes 1 mit einem End- oder Zwischenstück werden die zu verbindenden Teile mit ihren Stirnseiten dicht aneinander gestellt. Anschließend wird das Kupplungsstück 2 mit seinen beiden Flanschen 9 von oben so weit über die Stützen der beiden miteinander zu verbindenden Teile geführt, bis sich der Steg 8 innerhalb der Ausnehmungen 6 der miteinander zu verbindenden Leitstücke 1 befindet. Da der seitliche Abstand der beiden Flansche 9 des Kupplungsstückes 2 einem ganzzahligen Vielfachen der Breite einer Stütze 4 entspricht, übernehmen die beiden Flansche 9 die Sicherung der Verbindung der Leitstücke 1 in Längsrichtung des Leitschutzsystems, während der in die Ausnehmungen 6 ragende Steg 8 die Sicherung des Leitschutzsystems in der quer zu dessen Längsrichtung verlaufenden Richtung übernimmt.Those for connecting two guide pieces 1 to one another or a guide piece 1 with an end or intermediate piece serving coupling pieces 2 (Fig. 6) correspond essentially to the shape of a U and have a web 8, as well as two side flanges 9 on the end faces of the web are arranged. To establish the connection between two guide pieces 1 with each other or a guide piece 1 with an end or intermediate piece the parts to be connected with their end faces close together posed. Then the coupling piece 2 with its two Flanges 9 from above so far over the supports of the two together connecting parts guided until the web 8 within the recesses 6 of the guide pieces 1 to be connected to one another. Because the side Distance between the two flanges 9 of the coupling piece 2 an integer The two assume multiples of the width of a support 4 Flanges 9 securing the connection of the guide pieces 1 in the longitudinal direction of the command protection system, while the web 8 projecting into the recesses 6 securing the guidance protection system in the direction transverse to its longitudinal direction trending direction.

Zur Lösung dieser Verbindung ist es lediglich erforderlich das Kupplungsstück 2 nach oben aus dem Bereich der Stützen 4 zu ziehen. Hierdurch ist sichergestellt, daß an jeder beliebigen Stelle des Leitschutzsystems ein Leitstück 1 ausgetauscht, ein zusätzliches eingesetzt oder auch eines entnommen werden kann.To solve this connection it is only necessary that Pull the coupling piece 2 upwards out of the area of the supports 4. This ensures that at any point of the Leitschutzsystem exchanged a Leitstück 1, an additional one used or one can be removed.

Aus der vorstehenden Beschreibung ergibt sich, daß der Verlauf des Leitschutzsystems ohne großen Aufwand verändert werden kann. Soll beispielsweise in einen langgestreckten Rundkurs eine zusätzliche Schleife eingebracht werden, so ist es lediglich erforderlich diesen Rundkurs an der gewünschten Stelle zu öffnen und die entsprechenden Leitstücke 1 einzufügen. Hierzu werden die die zu entfernenden Leitstücke 1 miteinander verbindenden Kupplungsstücke 2 in der vorbeschriebenen Weise entfernt; die zu entfernenden Leitstücke 1 können sodann entnommen werden.From the above description it follows that the course of the Command protection system can be changed without much effort. Should For example, an additional loop in an elongated circuit be introduced, it is only necessary to take this circuit at the open the desired position and the corresponding guide pieces 1 insert. For this purpose, the guide pieces 1 to be removed are joined together connecting coupling pieces 2 removed in the manner described above; the guide pieces 1 to be removed can then be removed.

An das so geöffnete Stück des seitherigen Rundkurses können die zur Bildung der Schleife erforderlichen Leitstücke 1 eingebracht werden. Da die Schleife Rundungen aufweist, werden die Leitstücke 1 vor bzw während ihres Einbringens in das Leitschutzsystem diesen Rundungen entsprechend elastisch verformt, d. h. ihr ursprünglich geradliniger Verlauf wird entsprechend gebogen. Anschließend werden die so verformten Leitstücke 1 durch Einbringen der Kupplungsstücke 2 miteinander bzw mit den offenen Enden des früheren Rundkurses verbunden. Soweit der bei der Verformung der Leitstücke 1 entstande Krümmungsverlauf einen bestimmten Mindestradius nicht unterschreitet, ist die Form der so gebildeten Schleife durch die Kupplungsstücke 2 gesichert. Gegebenenfalls kann der erzielte Kurvenverlauf auch durch Befestigen einzelner Leitstücke 1 am Boden fixiert werden. Auch ist es denkbar zur Fixierung des Kurvenverlaufes Kupplungsstücke 2 zu verwenden, bei denen der Abstand der beiden Flansche 9 der Summe der Breite von beispielsweise 4 Stützen 4 und den beiden von diesen eingeschlossenen Zwischenräumen entspricht.On the piece of the circuit that has been open since then, those for Formation of the loop required guide pieces 1 are introduced. Since the Loop has curves, the guide pieces 1 before or during their Introduction into the control system according to these curves elastically deformed, d. H. their originally straight course becomes corresponding bent. The guide pieces 1 thus deformed are then passed through Introduce the coupling pieces 2 with each other or with the open ends of the previous circuit. As far as the deformation of the Guide pieces 1 created curvature course a certain minimum radius is not less than, the shape of the loop thus formed by the Coupling pieces 2 secured. If necessary, the curve shape achieved can also be fixed to the floor by attaching individual guide pieces 1. Also it is conceivable to fix the curve course coupling pieces 2 too use where the distance between the two flanges 9 is the sum of Width of, for example, 4 supports 4 and the two of these enclosed spaces corresponds.

Bei der Bildung beispielsweise der Kehre der Schleife ergeben sich an der äußeren Begrenzung der Fahrspur zwei Bogenstücke die je einen Innenradius aufweisen. Durch die Bildung der entsprechenden Krümmung werden die Auflaufflächen 7 der einzelnen Stützen 4 zum Mittelpunkt dieser Krümmung ausgerichtet. Die der Fahrbahn zugekehrten Auflaufflächen 7 der Stützen 4 wurden dabei aufeinander zu bewegt und liegen daher nahezu unterbrechungslos an einander an, sodaß die Auflaufflächen 7 eine nahezu ununterbroche Begrenzung der Außenseite der Kurve bilden (Fig.2 und 5) Sofern das Fahrzeug auf die Auflaufflächen 7 auffährt, nehmen diese die entstehenden Seitenkräfte auf, wobei sich das entsprechende Leitstück 1 zunächst elastisch verformt und nach Wegfall dieser Seitenkräfte wieder in seine ursprüngliche Kurvenform zurück kehrt.When, for example, the bend of the loop is formed, the outer boundary of the lane two bends each one Have inner radius. By forming the appropriate curvature the run-up surfaces 7 of the individual supports 4 become the center of this Curvature aligned. The runway surfaces 7 facing the roadway Columns 4 were moved towards each other and are therefore almost to each other without interruption, so that the ramp surfaces 7 almost form uninterrupted boundary of the outside of the curve (Fig. 2 and 5) If the vehicle hits the ramp surfaces 7, they take the arising lateral forces, the corresponding guide piece 1 first deformed elastically and in after these side forces ceased its original curve shape returns.

In Fig. 5 ist auch zu erkennen, daß der dort gezeigte Teil des Leitschutzsystems von insgesamt drei Leitstücken gebildet ist, nämlich einem geradlinigen Leitstück 1, einem ersten bogenförmigen Leitstück 1 a und einem sich daran anschließenden zweiten Leitstück 1 b.In Fig. 5 it can also be seen that the part of the shown there Command protection system is formed by a total of three guide pieces, namely one rectilinear guide piece 1, a first arcuate guide piece 1 a and one adjoining second guide piece 1 b.

Fig 5 läßt ferner erkennen, daß die jeweils letzte Stütze 4e und die jeweils erste Stütze 4a der Leitstücke 1, 1a und 1b sowohl am Innnenradius der Fahrbahn, als auch am der Fahrbahn abgekehrten Außenradius jeweils unmittelbar aneinander anliegen und parallel zueinander gerichtet sind, während die übrigen Stützen 4 der bogenförmig verlaufenden Leitstücke 1a,1b genau radial gerichtet sind und am Außenradius einen gegenseitigen Abstand aufweisen, der etwas größer als der gegenseitige Abstand der Stützen 4 am geradlinig verlaufenden Leitstück 1 ist.Fig. 5 also shows that the last support 4e and each first support 4a of the guide pieces 1, 1a and 1b both on the inner radius of the Lane, as well as on the outer radius facing away from the lane lie directly against each other and are aligned parallel to each other, while the remaining supports 4 of the curved guide pieces 1a, 1b are directed exactly radially and a mutual one on the outer radius Have a distance that is slightly larger than the mutual distance of the Supports 4 on the rectilinear guide piece 1.

Aufgrund der vorstehenden Ausführungen ergibt sich, daß die erfindungsgemäße Ausbildung der Leitstücke 1 sowohl zur Begrenzung des äußeren, als auch des inneren Randes der Fahrbahn von Rundkursen geeignet ist abzugrenzen und dabei insbesondere die am Außenradius entstehenden Seitenkräfte elastisch aufzunehmen und sich anschließend wieder zurück zu verformen. Based on the above, it follows that the inventive design of the guide pieces 1 both to limit the outer, as well as the inner edge of the lane of circuits is appropriate to delimit and in particular that on the outer radius resulting lateral forces absorb elastically and then to deform back again.

Da beispielsweise die im Bereich des Innenradius einer Kehre anzuordnenden Leitstücke 1 lediglich der optischen Fahrbahnabgrenzung dienen, sie also keine Kräfte aufnehmen bzw abfangen müssen, ist es auch möglich in diesen Bereichen Leitstücke vorzusehen, die nur auf einer Seite des Mittelteiles mit einer Stütze versehen sind.For example, in the area of the inside radius of a hairpin bend to be arranged guide pieces 1 only the optical road boundary serve, so they do not have to absorb or intercept forces, it is possible to provide guide pieces in these areas, which only on one side the middle part are provided with a support.
