従来の標識装置のうち、図7aに示した反射式の標識装置は、照明の点滅機能 がないため、遠方からの視認性が悪い。また、外部から照明を当てないかぎり役 に立たない、という問題点がある。 一方、内部の電球104が点滅する図7bの自発光式標識装置は、視認性を上 げるためにかなり光度の大きい電球を使う必要がある。このため装置自体が大型 になると共に、商用電源を使用できない場所ではバッテリーだけでは長時間の使 用ができず、発電機を必要とするほか、運搬にも不便である等々、実際の運用、 使用の面で極めて不便な点が多かった。 Among the conventional marking devices, the reflective marking device shown in FIG. 7a does not have the blinking function of the illumination, and thus has poor visibility from a distance. There is also a problem that it is useless unless it is illuminated from the outside. On the other hand, the self-luminous signing device of FIG. 7b, in which the internal light bulb 104 blinks, requires the use of a light bulb having a considerably high luminous intensity in order to improve visibility. For this reason, the device itself becomes large, and in places where commercial power cannot be used, it is not possible to use it for a long time with only the battery, a generator is required, and it is inconvenient to transport. There were many inconvenient points in terms of.

【作用】[Action]

発光ユニット2の発光ダイオード(以下、LEDと略す)は少ない消費電力で 長時間使用できる。よって電源としては、内蔵された小型の電池6、又は自動車 のバッテリーなどでも十分に長時間使用可能である。複数の発光ユニット2は、 継手4(又は47又は48)によって任意の形態を作り、用途に適切な発光式標 識装置として使用できる(図1a〜d)。 The light emitting diode (hereinafter abbreviated as LED) of the light emitting unit 2 can be used for a long time with low power consumption. Therefore, as a power source, a small built-in battery 6 or an automobile battery can be used for a sufficiently long time. The plurality of light emitting units 2 can be used as a light emitting type identification device suitable for the application by forming an arbitrary shape with the joint 4 (or 47 or 48) (FIGS. 1a to 1d).

【0008】 継手4は、その連結軸43を押し込んだ状態(図5b)で、受口48へ連結顎 部22を押し込むと、その略C字形をなす挿入孔22Aが連結軸43における小 径の顎挿入軸部43Cを通過してはまり込む。このとき連結顎部22を所望の連 結角度に設定し、前記連結軸43を押す手を離すと、同連結軸43は戻しばね4 4によって押し戻され(図5a)、C字形の挿入孔22aには、その内径と略同 径の係止軸部43Aがはまり込む。よって以後連結顎部22は離脱不可能となる 。When the connecting shaft 43 of the joint 4 is pushed in (FIG. 5 b), when the connecting jaw 22 is pushed into the receiving port 48, the substantially C-shaped insertion hole 22 A has a small diameter in the connecting shaft 43. The chin insertion shaft portion 43C is passed and fitted. At this time, when the connecting jaw 22 is set to a desired connecting angle and the hand pushing the connecting shaft 43 is released, the connecting shaft 43 is pushed back by the return spring 44 (Fig. 5a), and the C-shaped insertion hole 22a is formed. A locking shaft portion 43A having a diameter substantially the same as the inner diameter of the locking shaft portion 43A is fitted in the housing. Therefore, the connecting jaw 22 cannot be detached thereafter.

A cover plate 45 having the same shape as the above-mentioned joint half body 41 is prepared as a spring receiver for suppressing the escape of the return spring 44. A through hole 45A having a similar diameter is formed in the cover plate 45 at a position where the center coincides with the through hole 41D described above.

【0018】 図4に個々に示した5種類の部品に基いて、通電式の継手4は次のように組み 立てられている。まず、一方の継手半割体41の連結突条41Aを他方の継手半 割体42の係止溝42Cに合致させ、係止孔41Bと円孔42Aの中心を一致さ せる。そして、これらの孔の中に連結軸43を図示の方向に差し込む。このとき 、連結軸43の係止突条43Bは継手半割体41の係止溝41Cに一致させて挿 入する。つづいて、戻しばね44を連結軸43の中空部43F内に挿入し、外側 から蓋板45をかぶせ、止めねじ47を蓋板45の通し孔45Aから継手半割体 41の通し孔41Dへと通し、反対側の継手半割体42のねじ孔42Dへねじ込 み強固に締結する。こうして組み立てられた継手4には、厚さ方向の略中央に、 発光ユニット2の連結顎部22を挿入する受口48が凹溝状に形成される。Based on the five types of parts individually shown in FIG. 4, the energizing joint 4 is assembled as follows. First, the connecting projection 41A of one joint half body 41 is aligned with the locking groove 42C of the other joint half body 42, and the centers of the locking hole 41B and the circular hole 42A are aligned. Then, the connecting shaft 43 is inserted into these holes in the direction shown. At this time, the locking ridge 43B of the connecting shaft 43 is inserted in alignment with the locking groove 41C of the joint half body 41. Subsequently, the return spring 44 is inserted into the hollow portion 43F of the connecting shaft 43, the cover plate 45 is covered from the outside, and the set screw 47 is moved from the through hole 45A of the cover plate 45 to the through hole 41D of the joint half body 41. Then, screw it into the screw hole 42D of the joint half 42 on the opposite side and firmly tighten it. In the joint 4 assembled in this manner, a receiving port 48 into which the connecting jaw portion 22 of the light emitting unit 2 is inserted is formed in a concave groove shape at substantially the center in the thickness direction.

【0019】 上述のように組み立てられた通電式の継手4の使用態様を、図5a,bに示し ている。この通電式の継手4で上述した発光ユニット2を連結するには、まず継 手4における連結軸43の押し軸部43Eを図5bのように左方に押し込む。す ると、発光ユニット2の連結顎部22が挿入される受口48の位置に顎挿入軸部 43Cが一致し、連結顎部22の挿入孔22Aを顎挿入軸部43cへ嵌め込める 。その後、押し軸部43Eから手を放し、戻しばね44のばね力によって連結軸 43を図5aのように右方に滑動させると、連結軸43の太い係止軸部43Aが 連結顎部22の挿入孔22Aに嵌まり込み、離脱不能な連結状態となる。A usage mode of the electrically conductive joint 4 assembled as described above is shown in FIGS. 5a and 5b. In order to connect the above-described light emitting unit 2 with the energizing joint 4, first, the push shaft portion 43E of the connecting shaft 43 of the joint 4 is pushed leftward as shown in FIG. 5b. Then, the jaw insertion shaft portion 43C is aligned with the position of the receptacle 48 into which the connection jaw portion 22 of the light emitting unit 2 is inserted, and the insertion hole 22A of the connection jaw portion 22 can be fitted into the jaw insertion shaft portion 43c. Thereafter, when the push shaft portion 43E is released, and the connecting shaft 43 is slid to the right as shown in FIG. 5a by the spring force of the return spring 44, the thick locking shaft portion 43A of the connecting shaft 43 moves to the connecting jaw portion 22A. It fits into the insertion hole 22A and becomes a non-separable connection state.

【0020】 と同時に、連結軸43における係止軸部43Aの係止突条43Bが、継手半割 体41における係止孔41Bの係止溝41Cに進入し、連結軸43は回転不能状 態となる。係止突条43Bはまた、連結顎部22の係止溝22Bへも進入し、そ の回転を不能ならしめる。その結果、発光ユニット2の継手4に対する連結角度 は、きっちり固定される。但し、押し軸部43Eを押し込んで連結顎部22の拘 束を一旦解き、その連結角度を係止溝22Bの配置に応じて任意に選択すること により、連結角度の設定、変更は自由自在である。要するに、発光ユニット2の 継手4に対する連結を解きたいとき、又は連結角度を変更したいときは、単に押 し軸部43Eを押し込めばよい。At the same time, the locking projection 43B of the locking shaft portion 43A of the connecting shaft 43 enters into the locking groove 41C of the locking hole 41B of the joint half 41, and the connecting shaft 43 is in a non-rotatable state. Becomes The locking ridge 43B also enters the locking groove 22B of the coupling jaw 22 and disables its rotation. As a result, the connection angle of the light emitting unit 2 to the joint 4 is tightly fixed. However, by pushing in the push shaft portion 43E to temporarily release the binding of the connecting jaw portion 22, and by freely selecting the connecting angle according to the arrangement of the locking groove 22B, the connecting angle can be set and changed freely. is there. In short, when it is desired to release the connection of the light emitting unit 2 to the joint 4 or to change the connection angle, it is sufficient to simply push in the push shaft portion 43E.

【0021】 前述のようにして連結顎部22を継手4に連結したときは、連結顎部22のリ ードフレーム接点24が、継手4の接点リング46と接触して電気的な導通状態 となり、隣接の発光ユニット2との電気接続も同時に行なわれる。従って、この 通電式の継手4を使用すれば、図2aに示した給電コネクタ23は無用である。 図3〜図5に示した継手4は、2本の発光ユニットを連結する形態の継手であ るが、同様な構成によって3個の発光ユニット2を連結可能な継手47(図6a )、あるいは4個の発光ユニット2を連結可能な継手48(図6b)を同様に実 施することもできる。このような継手47,48を用いれば、図1a〜dに示し たものよりさらに多様な形態の発光式標識装置を組み立て使用することが可能で ある。When the connecting jaws 22 are connected to the joint 4 as described above, the lead frame contacts 24 of the connecting jaws 22 come into contact with the contact rings 46 of the joint 4 to establish an electrical conduction state, and the adjacent The electrical connection with the light emitting unit 2 is also made at the same time. Therefore, if this energizing joint 4 is used, the power supply connector 23 shown in FIG. 2a is useless. The joint 4 shown in FIGS. 3 to 5 is a joint for connecting two light emitting units, but a joint 47 (FIG. 6a) capable of connecting three light emitting units 2 with the same configuration, or A joint 48 (FIG. 6b) capable of connecting the four light emitting units 2 can be similarly provided. By using the joints 47 and 48, it is possible to assemble and use various types of light emitting type labeling devices than those shown in FIGS.
