PEÇA COM LEITURA BRAILLE PARA O NOME DAS RUAS E LOGRADOUROS

Description

1 / 3 “Piece with Braille reading for street and public place names” (001) The utility model object piece serves the road signage sector, more specifically the area of ​​vertical signage aimed at serving the visually impaired, in its quadrangular prism form (A), with rounded edges and corners (edges), will have on its 4 external rectangular faces (Fc1, Fc2, Fc2 and FC4), the application of text in Braille reading of the respective name of the public place or streets, in order to guide and inform the visually impaired of their location and the names of the public places where they are located. (002) The utility model object, as to its state of the art, relates to its own objective, that is, to inform the visually impaired, through text in Braille, of the names of the streets or public places that belong to that intersection, that is, the piece in the form of a quadrangular prism (A), coupled to the same cylindrical signpost as the street name signs, at a height respecting accessibility standards; will expand the informative benefit of not only being a common post, which previously contained blue nameplates at its upper end, but now with the application of the piece containing the text in Braille of the street names, it will offer the visually impaired an improvement in information and circulation conditions on public roads and accesses, in addition to the use of tactile paving already present. (003) The utility model object, for application on street posts containing the respective names of the same in braille, was conceived and designed to solve and supply the lack of information and conditions of equality in serving the visually impaired in their daily lives during their journey and urban circulation, that is, some existing safety items such as tactile paving can contribute, but with the application of the utility model object on street posts containing the names of the streets in braille, there will be greater safety in view of its clear orienting reference. Petition 870250086390, dated 09 / 24 / 2025, page 3 / 13 2 / 3 (004) Figure 1 shows the application of the utility model object (A) in its quadrangular prism form on the cylindrical street pole, and this as its axis. Figure 2 shows a top view of the utility model object (A) in its quadrangular prism form and the post as its axis. Figure 3 shows the two modules (A1 and A2) separately in their triangular prism form. Figure 4 shows the top view separately of the two triangular prism-shaped modules (A1 and A2). Figure 5 shows the cylindrical ring (B) formed by the junction of (B1 and B2) for supporting and adjusting the object of use (A). Figure 6 shows the braille plate applied to the external rectangular faces (Fc1, Fc2, Fc3 and Fc4) on the utility object (A). (005) The utility model object, for application on cylindrical street posts containing text of the respective names of the same in braille reading (fig 6), is composed of the union of two modules (A1 and A2) (fig 3 and 4) respectively and identical in the form of a triangular prism (with its larger face open), having on the upper and lower faces (the base) of each module a semicircular cut or half circle, with a radius similar to the radius of the diameter of the cylindrical street post, allowing the perfect fit of the junction of the two modules, forming a utility object in the form of a quadrangular prism (A), where the post becomes the central axis of the piece; thus with four identical external rectangular faces it will be possible to apply the text in braille reading (Fc1, Fc2, Fc3 and Fc4) for identification and name of the street or public place. Petition 870250086390, dated 09 / 24 / 2025, page 4 / 13 3 / 3 (006) The utility model object piece, consisting of the joining of the two modules (A1 and A2), applied and fixed to the cylindrical street post, at a height in accordance with accessibility standards, by means of a cylindrical ring (B, Fig 5), an internal element to the two modules (A1 and A2) formed by two semicircles or half rings (B1 and B2) with a radius adjustable to the radius of the cylindrical post, responsible for the perfect coupling and joining of the two modules (A1 and A2), forming a single utility object piece or body unit defined in the form of a quadrangular prism (A), with rounded corners (edges) and edges. (007) The utility model object in its quadrangular prism form (A) for application on cylindrical street posts containing the respective street names in braille (Fig 6), as a technical-functional unit, based on its well-defined and previously specified application, for cylindrical posts for signaling the names of streets (or roads) and urban places, being coupled at the appropriate height according to accessibility standards, having on its external rectangular faces the identification of the street names in braille text (Fig 6) for better orientation and location of the visually impaired; in short, to the very specific fulfillment of its application function, there is no need for demonstrative tables, or representation of any example of a common sign identifying an environment or space that has braille reading for the visually impaired user;In other words, the utility model (A) presented here refers to the initiative to improve the orientation conditions for locomotion for the visually impaired, resulting in greater safety and independence in their urban journey, and therefore using a specific model of utility model (A) designed to fulfill its function.

Claims

1 / 2 CLAIMS 1) The utility model object, in order to fulfill its function, has its creative or inventive role in being coupled to existing and known cylindrical posts for vertical road signage displaying the names of streets and public roads, thus becoming a complementary and integral part of the same post;being conceived and characterized by its aspect and its quadrangular prism shape (A), composed of the junction of A1 and A2, offering sufficient area and space for the application of texts in braille reading in a position, height and dimensions consistent with accessibility standards (fig 6), in order to fulfill its function and objective, allowing the visually impaired to identify and locate themselves on public roads and streets, this is because, in its inventive and creative form of a quadrangular prism containing 4 faces, Fc1, Fc2, Fc3 and Fc4, each two faces respectively and parallel to the streets, with Fc1 and Fc3 identifying the name of the street or road C1 of the intersection, and Fc2 and Fc4 identifying the name of the street or road C2, thus offering the visually impaired comfort and safety in their urban journey, perfectly knowing their location and position in relation to the roads or intersection;The following paragraphs 2 and 3 better characterize the integration of the object and utility model into the cylindrical road signpost that identifies street names. 2) The utility model object is characterized by two modules, A1 and A2 respectively, identical in the form of a triangular prism with a semicircular cut on their upper and lower faces (or base) in each of the modules, A1 and A2, so as to embrace the cylindrical post, with the latter centered in the middle of the junction of the two modules (between A1 and A2), becoming the axis of the utility object object in its unique technical-functional or corporeal state (after the fitting of modules A1 and A2) in the final form of a quadrangular prism (A), thus offering 4 identical lateral faces (Fc1, Fc2, Fc3 and Fc4) where the texts of the names of the streets or roads of the intersection are applied in braille, allowing the visually impaired to identify and locate themselves.3) The utility model object, already in its unique technical-functional format of a quadrangular prism (A), positioned at a height corresponding to accessibility standards, guaranteed by the existence of a ring (B) characterized by two semicircular halves (B1 and B2) which, like modules A1 and A2, join together in the same function of embracing the cylindrical post, making the ring (B) a support element at the correct height and embedded within the utility model object in the form of a quadrangular prism (A) containing 4 identical and opposite lateral faces (Fc1, Fc2, Fc3 and Fc4), positioned parallel to the crossing roads, in order to offer the braille reading text applied to the two faces F1 and F3 with the same name of one of the roads or streets and F2 and F4 with the name of the other road, making it easier for the visually impaired to recognize the positions of the roads at the intersection.and to achieve visual harmony, the color blue was chosen for the utility object (A), which resembles the colors of the street name signs, with its Braille text also in white.
