Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of road ancillary facilities technology, and in particular to a quick-release and detachable landscape device for road guardrails. Background Technology
[0002] In the application of road safety barriers, to enhance the urban landscape, it is often necessary to attach landscape devices such as potted plants to the barriers. However, existing landscape devices generally suffer from cumbersome installation and dismantling processes. For example, traditional connection methods mostly rely on fasteners such as bolts, rivets, or elastic clips, requiring specialized tools for installation. This not only increases construction time and labor costs but may also lead to component damage or poor reusability. Furthermore, when traffic police or road administration departments adjust the barrier layout due to traffic control, road rerouting, or other needs, existing devices are often difficult to adapt quickly, and dismantling may involve cutting or breaking, lacking flexibility. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a quick-assembly and disassembly auxiliary landscape device for road isolation guardrails with a simple structure and no need for disassembly tools, so as to improve work efficiency and adaptability.
[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a quick-release and detachable auxiliary landscape device for road isolation guardrails, comprising:
[0005] Connectors are spaced apart along the extension direction of the guardrail and are detachably connected to the guardrail. The connectors are provided with slots, the openings of which face outwards and gradually decrease in size from the inside to the outside.
[0006] A skirt panel is installed on the outside of the guardrail via the connector and forms a receiving cavity for accommodating potted plants between the skirt panel and the vertical surface of the guardrail. The skirt panel includes a base plate for supporting the potted plants and a side plate extending upward from the end of the base plate. The front end of the base plate is provided with an anti-detachment structure.
[0007] The base plate is configured to be inserted into a slot when tilted, and to prevent the anti-dislodgement structure from coming out of the slot when flattened.
[0008] Preferably, the two ends of the connector extend to the outside of the guardrail and form support portions on both sides of the guardrail respectively; the skirt panels located on the same side of the guardrail are configured to be connected sequentially along the extension direction of the guardrail, and the bottom plate of each skirt panel is fixedly connected to the support portions of at least two connectors.
[0009] More preferably, the inner edge of the base plate is provided with an inclined and upturned hook portion, the opening of the slot faces both sides of the connector, and the inner top groove wall surface of the slot is provided with an inclined surface that matches the hook portion. The base plate can restrict the outward movement of the base plate by inserting the hook portion into the slot on the corresponding side and abutting against the inclined surface.
[0010] The connector is perpendicular to the guardrail facade and spans across the top of the lower horizontal bar of the guardrail. The middle section of the connector has a downward-facing slot, which is used to lock the horizontal bar to detachably connect the connector to the guardrail.
[0011] Preferably, adjacent skirt panels on the same side of the guardrail are detachably connected by connecting pieces.
[0012] More preferably, the connecting piece is a flexible U-shaped clip, and both edges of the opening end of the connecting piece are rolled inward to form a flange structure, and it is configured to fit over and clamp two adjacent skirt panels from the top of the side panel downward.
[0013] More preferably, a boss is provided at the center of the top of the connector, and the two slots are respectively opened on both sides of the boss.
[0014] More preferably, the upper edge of the side plate and the inner edge of the bottom plate are both provided with a chamfered structure to prevent hand cuts.
[0015] More preferably, it also includes a lower skirt plate, the lower skirt plate having a cross-sectional structure in the shape of a number 7, the upper part of which abuts against the support and is pressed by the bottom plate, and the lower part is bent to protect the outer end of the support.
[0016] More preferably, the top surface of the support is provided with a groove, and the upper part of the lower skirt is provided with a protrusion that mates with the groove.
[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0018] By innovatively inserting the bottom of the skirt panel into the slot at an angle and then limiting its position after being laid flat, the system prevents the skirt panel from detaching outwards. This significantly optimizes the connection method of the landscape device attached to the road guardrail, overcoming the problems of cumbersome installation, excessive parts, and complex processing associated with existing technologies using blind rivets or elastic limiting components. The new solution not only achieves truly rapid assembly and disassembly but also improves the simplicity, adaptability, and economy of the overall structure. Attached Figure Description

[0030] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the quick-release and detachable landscape accessory for road safety barriers includes:
[0031] Connector 1 is provided at intervals along the extension direction of guardrail 6 and is detachably connected to guardrail 6. Connector 1 is provided with slot 1c, the opening of slot 1c faces the outside of connector 1 and gradually decreases in size from the inside to the outside.
[0032] Skirt 3 is installed on the outside of guardrail 6 through the connector 1 and forms a receiving cavity for accommodating potted plants 4 between it and the vertical surface of guardrail 6. Skirt 3 includes a bottom plate 3b for supporting potted plants 4 and a side plate 3a extending upward from the end of bottom plate 3b. The front end of bottom plate 3b is provided with an anti-detachment structure.
[0033] The base plate 3b is configured to be able to be inserted into the slot 1c when tilted, and to prevent the anti-dislodgement structure from being dislodged outward from the slot 1c when it is laid flat.
[0034] In the above structure, the two ends of the connector 1 extend to the outside of the guardrail and form support parts 1b on both sides of the guardrail respectively; the skirt panels 3 located on the same side of the guardrail are configured to be connected sequentially along the extension direction of the guardrail, and the bottom plate 3b of each skirt panel 3 is fixedly connected to the support parts 1b of at least two connectors 1.
[0035] The inner edge of the base plate 3b is provided with an inclined, upward-curving hook portion 3c. The opening of the slot 1c faces both sides of the connector 1, and the inner top groove wall of the slot 1c is provided with a slope that matches the hook portion 3c. The base plate 3b can be restricted from moving outward by inserting the hook portion 3c into the corresponding slot 1c and abutting against the slope. The connector 1 is perpendicular to the railing facade and spans across the top of the lower horizontal bar of the railing. The middle section of the connector 1 is provided with a downward-opening slot 1a, which is used to lock the horizontal bar to detachably connect the connector 1 to the railing.
[0036] Since road safety barriers typically extend to a certain length along with the road, the skirt panels 3 installed on both sides of the road safety barrier are assembled in a modular, splicing manner to match the length of the road safety barrier. Therefore, as... Figure 5 As shown, adjacent skirt panels 3 on the same side of the guardrail are detachably connected by connecting pieces 2, enabling quick and reliable connection between skirt panel modules over long distances and ensuring the continuity and stability of the overall structure. The connecting piece 2 is a flexible U-shaped clip, with both edges of its open end rolled inwards to form a flanged structure. It is configured to fit over and clamp two adjacent skirt panels 3 from the top of the side panel 3a.
[0037] In this embodiment, the slot 1a engages with the lower crossbar of the guardrail 6, making on-site construction and setup more convenient. With the combined effect of the device and the overall gravity of the potted plant 4, it can maintain sufficient stability even if the connector 1 and the lower crossbar are not fastened together.
[0038] Preferably, a boss 1d is centrally located at the top of the connector 1, and two slots 1c are respectively formed on both sides of the boss 1d. This makes it easy to integrally mold the slots 1c with the entire connector 1.
[0039] Furthermore, the upper edge of the side plate 3a and the inner edge of the base plate 3b are both designed with anti-cut hand flanges. It is important to note that the inner edge of the base plate 3b is also designed with flanges, which, combined with the angled shape, form the hook portion 3c. This makes the hook portion 3c thicker, allowing it to be more easily and securely fastened into the slot 1c.
[0040] The structure of this embodiment also includes a lower skirt 5, such as Figure 6 or Figure 7 As shown, the lower skirt 5 has a 7-shaped cross-section. Its upper part rests against the support part 1b and is pressed by the base plate 3b, while its lower part is bent to protect the outer end of the support part 1b, thereby reducing wear on the outer end of the support part 1b. The top surface of the support part 1b is provided with a groove 1e, and the upper part of the lower skirt 5 is provided with a protrusion 5a that mates with the groove 1e, facilitating quick positioning during installation and improving stability.
[0041] The construction, installation, and dismantling processes for the road safety guardrail's auxiliary landscape features provided in the above embodiments are roughly as follows:
[0042] During construction and installation:
[0043] First, install the connector 1, arranging multiple elongated connectors 1 at intervals along the extension direction of the guardrail. Each connector 1 is directly snapped onto the upper part of the lower horizontal bar of the guardrail through a downward-facing slot 1a with an opening in its middle section, making the connector 1 perpendicular to the guardrail facade. The engagement of the slot 1a with the horizontal bar utilizes the device's own weight for initial fixation, ensuring that the connector 1 stably spans both sides of the guardrail. The support portions 1b at both ends of the connector 1 extend to the outside of the guardrail, providing support for the subsequent installation of the skirt panel. The top of the connector 1 has a boss 1d, the centrally located design of which helps to distribute the load, and the slots 1c on both sides prepare for snap-fit.
[0044] Next, install the lower skirt 5 (optional). If the device comes with a lower skirt 3, first place the upper part of the lower skirt 5 against the top surface of the support 1b. The lower skirt 5 has a 7-shaped cross-section. Its upper part can be initially positioned by engaging the protrusion 5a with the pre-set groove 1e on the top surface of the support 1b. The lower bent part is used to protect the outer end of the support 1b and prevent wear. During installation, gently press the lower skirt 5 to make the protrusion 5a embed into the groove 1e, ensuring a tight fit. This step improves the appearance and durability, and is especially suitable for scenarios where the guardrail base needs to be covered.
[0045] Next, install the skirt panel 3, placing the bottom plate 3b of the skirt panel 3 above the support portion 1b of all the connectors 1 on the same side of the guardrail. The skirt panel 3 includes a side plate 3a and a bottom plate 3b, with an upwardly inclined hook portion 3c on the inner edge of the bottom plate 3b. During installation, as follows... Figure 3As shown, align the hook part 3c with the symmetrically arranged slot 1c opening on the support part 1b (the slot opening faces both sides of the connector), and then insert the skirt board 3 inward, allowing the hook part 3c to slide into the slot 1c. Next, flatten the skirt board 3. The inclined surface of the top groove wall inside the slot 1c matches the inclined surface of the hook part 3c. Through the self-locking effect of the inclined surface, the movement of the base plate 3b outward is automatically restricted, forming a stable connection. The base plate 3b of each skirt board 3 is engaged with the support parts 1b of at least two connectors 1, thereby forming a receiving cavity between the side plate 3a and the railing facade for placing the potted plant 4. The flanged structure of the upper edge of the side plate 3a and the inner edge of the base plate 3b can prevent cuts and improve construction safety.
[0046] Next, connect the adjacent skirt panels 3. Place the U-shaped clips from top to bottom over the side panels 3a of the two adjacent skirt panels 3, clamping the skirt panels tightly at the open end of the U-shaped clips. The flanged edge of the U-shaped clips further prevents cuts and simplifies operation. This step requires no tools; it can be completed by manual pressing, ensuring a tight connection between the skirt panel modules and preventing displacement.
[0047] Finally, check that all locking points are secure and ensure that skirt panel 3 is not loose. Then, place the potted plant 4 into the receiving cavity. The base plate 3b supports the weight of the potted plant and further tightens the lower skirt panel 5 (if installed), enhancing stability. The entire installation process requires only manual operation, eliminating the need for tools and significantly improving efficiency, making it especially suitable for large-scale or temporary projects.
[0048] During disassembly:
[0049] First, manually remove all the potted plants 4 placed in the accommodating cavity to reduce the load on the device and prepare for subsequent disassembly.
[0050] Then, pinch the edge of the U-shaped clip with your hand and lift it upwards to detach it from the skirt panel 3. Since the edge of the U-shaped clip is smooth, no force is required during the disassembly process, thus avoiding damage to the parts.
[0051] Next, for each skirt panel 3, hold the edge of the side panel 3a or the bottom panel 3b of the skirt panel 3 and pull it slightly outwards to allow the hook part 3c to slide out of the slot 1c. Due to the beveled design of the slot 1c, the skirt panel 3 can be easily detached without levers or tools. If the lower skirt panel 5 is installed, after the skirt panel 3 is removed, the lower skirt panel 5 may still be attached to the support part 1b, but it can be removed manually by lifting it off.
[0052] If the lower skirt 5 engages with the groove 1e via the protrusion 5a, then by pinching the lower part of the lower skirt 5 with your hand and lifting it upwards, the protrusion 5a will disengage from the groove 1e, and the lower skirt 5 can be removed.
[0053] Finally, lift connector 1 directly upwards from the guardrail crossbar, causing the slot 1a to disengage from the crossbar. Connector 1 has no additional fasteners, the disassembly process does not damage the guardrail body, and all parts are reusable or can be quickly adjusted.
[0054] The entire dismantling process requires only manual operation and can be completed within minutes, avoiding the cumbersome tool-based demolition or cutting required by traditional methods, significantly improving flexibility and economy. This design is particularly suitable for traffic control, road rerouting, or periodic maintenance scenarios, ensuring the sustainable use of road facilities.
[0055] The quick-release and detachable landscape device for road safety barriers provided by the above embodiments is not only extremely convenient and efficient to install, but also simple and flexible to disassemble, with strong adaptability. Furthermore, the structural design is significantly simplified, reducing the number of parts. Simultaneously, manufacturing is simpler and more economical. The hook part 3c and the slot 1c can be integrally formed through stamping, bending, or injection molding processes, eliminating the need for additional processing of elastic components or drilling, reducing production steps and energy consumption, facilitating large-scale standardized production, and lowering manufacturing costs. It is economical and widely applicable. Due to the reduced costs of installation, disassembly, and maintenance, as well as the improved lightweight and durability of the structure, this device offers higher cost-effectiveness in long-term use, making it particularly suitable for scenarios such as urban roads and highways that require frequent maintenance or temporary adjustments, aligning with the development trend of intelligent and flexible modern road facilities.
[0056] To facilitate understanding by those skilled in the art of the improvements of this utility model compared to the prior art, some of the accompanying drawings and descriptions of this utility model have been simplified. The above embodiments are preferred implementations of this utility model. In addition, this utility model can be implemented in other ways. Any obvious substitutions without departing from the concept of this technical solution are within the protection scope of this utility model.
