Problems solved by technology

The proposed scheme may thus limit the number of conductors
However, this solution requires the use of a specific conductor having a shape different from that of the specific conductor, which complicates the manufacturing method and increases its cost

Embodiment Construction

[0030] The signaling column C shown in the figure comprises a number of signaling stages or modules A stacked. As seen in Figure 1, the column C extends along a vertical axis X and has 4 stages A1-A4 fastened to each other, the lowest stage A1 being fastened to a base S which can Ensuring access to the electrical conductors, the uppermost stage A4 is for example covered by a cover. The column can of course have a different number of stages.

[0031] Grade A i The main body 10 accommodates many conductive rods 20 . For clarity, Figure 2 shows a Class A i of a rod. A body 10, which is cylindrical or prismatic with an axis X, has a base 11 arranged on its circumference (see image 3 and Figure 5-8 ) with a number of curved channels 12 and adjacent to these channels pins 13 for receiving connectors 30 . At the opposite end to said base (that is to say towards the top in the figure), the body 10 has a support 14, such as a cap or a frame, designed as an upper stage A of the ...

Abstract

The invention relates in particular to optical traffic signal columns, which comprise stacked stages and are fixed to each other by rotation. The base of each stage has rectangular channels (12) and fixed connectors (30) distributed around its circumference. The conductors (20) are rods, each rod having two ends (21, 23) angularly offset from each other, and the common rod (20C) being identical to the other rods (20A). Said connectors are identical and they are respectively fixed at the bottom (23) of the rod (20) of the relevant stage and at the top (21) of the respective rod of the adjacent stage, the angular offset between the two fixed points corresponding to The angular offset between the ends of a rod. The connector (30) and the rods (20A, 20C) are arranged and mounted with respect to each other such that from one stage to the other essentially the same angular positioning of the common rod and the angular offset of the other rods are achieved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a signaling column consisting of visual, audible or other types of signaling stages fastened together in a stacked arrangement, each stage having a main body consisting of a base and side walls and a power supply and housed in the main body Connecting conductors are provided between the signaling members within. Background technique [0002] Signal columns of this type are known from document FR 2 128 998 . The current supply conductor described in this document consists of a plate comprising a first anode connection and a second cathode connection. Homogeneous conductors in stacked stages are arranged in series by connecting the anode terminal of one to the cathode terminal of the other. The manufacture of such conductors fully functional as interconnects is complex. Also, in these older columns, each stage was powered through two specific conductors, which significantly increased the number of conductors at the bas...
