[0023] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0024] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0025] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments.

[0026] Example 1 Reference Figures 1-2 This is the first embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment provides a utility pole protection structure, which includes an isolation component 100. The isolation component 100 includes a base 101, an isolation tube 102 fixed to the top of the base 101, a mounting bracket 103 disposed on the outer ring of the isolation tube 102, and a stiffening rib 104 installed in the mounting bracket 103.

[0027] Specifically, the base 101 has multiple mounting holes 101a, which are staggered with the mounting bracket 103.

[0028] With the base 101 and its mounting holes 101a, the protective structure can be firmly fixed to the ground outside the utility pole to be protected. When a car or other object hits it, the impact force can be transmitted through the stable connection with the ground, reducing the direct force exerted on the utility pole by the device, thus achieving the effect of protecting the utility pole. With the stiffening ribs 104, the outer shell 201 can be supported, reducing the deformation of the outer shell 201 when an impact occurs, and ensuring the stability of the device.

[0029] Specifically, the inner diameters of the base 101 and the isolation tube 102 are the same, and there is a gap between the inner circles of the base 101 and the isolation tube 102 and the utility pole to be protected.

[0030] Furthermore, the gap between the base 101, the isolation tube 102, and the utility pole is 5-20cm.

[0031] Furthermore, the mounting bracket 103 is arranged in a circular pattern around the isolation tube 102.

[0032] Furthermore, both the isolation tube 102 and the stiffening rib 104 are made of high-strength materials.

[0033] The base 101 and the inner diameter of the isolation tube 102 are the same, which facilitates the installation of the device. There is a gap of 5~20cm between the base 101 and the isolation tube 102 and the utility pole. The isolation tube 102 is made of high-strength steel pipe or composite material, which gives it strong shear bearing capacity. Even if it deforms under the combined action of the outer shell 201, energy dissipation plate 202 and stiffening rib 104, it will not come into contact with the utility pole, thus ensuring the safety of the utility pole. The specific size of the gap needs to be set according to the actual situation.

[0034] The stiffening ribs 104 and the energy dissipation plate 202 are alternately arranged and made of high-strength steel or aluminum alloy. They are designed to reduce the deformation of the protective device under impact and maintain the stability of the structure. The stiffening ribs 104 are connected to the isolation tube 102 and the outer shell 201 to form a whole, which enhances the overall strength and stability of the anti-collision barrel.

[0035] The mounting brackets 103 are arranged circumferentially around the isolation pipe 102. Firstly, based on actual usage, if all-around protection of the utility pole is required, the mounting brackets 103 should be evenly distributed, with a minimum of four. The specific number can be determined based on road conditions and other factors. Secondly, when the utility pole is located on the roadside and requires protection on only one side, the mounting brackets 103 do not need to be evenly distributed. More brackets can be placed on the protected side, and fewer on the other side, which can appropriately reduce costs. Alternatively, they can be evenly distributed to enhance the stability of the device and make the stress application more stable. In use, the base 101 and the isolation tube 102 are fitted onto the outside of the utility pole to be protected, the central axis of the isolation tube 102 is aligned with the central axis of the utility pole, and then the base 101 is stably connected to the ground by expansion bolts, floor nails and other fasteners. Then the stiffening rib 104 is inserted into the mounting bracket 103, and then the outer casing 201 is operated.

[0036] Example 2 Reference Figures 4-5 This is the second embodiment of the present invention, which differs from the first embodiment in that: it also includes a base 101 and an isolation tube 102, both of which are composed of at least two arcs, and the arc joints of the base 101 and the isolation tube 102 are fixedly connected by a connector.

[0037] Both the base 101 and the isolation tube 102 are made of at least two arcs spliced ​​together to form a ring that surrounds the outside of the utility pole that needs to be protected. The base 101 and its corresponding isolation tube 102 can be set as one piece, and both need to be spliced ​​together.

[0038] The number of arcs that divide the base 101 and the isolation tube 102 can be set according to the actual situation. There is no specific limit here. If the device is large, more arcs can be divided for easy transportation; if the device is small, fewer arcs can be divided.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, both the base 101 and the isolation plate 102 are divided into two semicircular arcs, and the connecting surface of the two arcs is a plane. At the connection of the isolation cylinder 102, multiple connecting holes 102a are provided along the transverse direction of the isolation cylinder 102. The connecting holes 102a are threaded inside, which can be matched with bolts to fasten the two semicircular arc isolation cylinders 102. The number and size of the connecting holes 102a can be set according to the actual situation, and no specific limitation is made here.

[0040] like Figure 5 As shown, both the base 101 and the isolation plate 102 are divided into two semicircular arcs, but the connection between the two arcs is set as a stepped shape that matches each other, and a connection hole 102a is provided at the stepped shape where the two overlap, and the inner ring of the connection hole 102a is threaded so that it can be used with a bolt to fix the connection between the two arcs.

[0041] Furthermore, if divided into two arc plates, the two arc plates can be of different sizes. For example, if one side of the utility pole is more likely to be hit, it can be divided into a large arc and a small arc. The large arc and the small arc are connected by bolts and other connectors. The side with the large arc is the side of the utility pole that is more likely to be hit, thus strengthening the stability of the impact point.

[0042] Example 3 Reference Figures 3-5 This is the third embodiment of the present utility model. This embodiment is based on the previous two embodiments. This embodiment provides a protective shell, which includes a protective component 200. The protective component 200 includes a shell 201 and an energy-consuming plate 202 disposed inside the shell 201. The shell 201 is fitted onto the outer ring of the base 101.

[0043] Furthermore, a collar 201a is provided at the top center of the outer casing 201. The collar 201a has the same inner and outer diameter as the isolation tube 102. The collar 201a is fixed to one end of the outer casing 201 by a connecting plate 201b. The connecting plate 201b corresponds to the mounting bracket 103, and the connecting plate 201b is inserted into the stiffening rib 104.

[0044] Furthermore, the energy-absorbing plate 202 is disposed between the stiffening ribs 104 to fill the space left between the stiffening ribs 104, and the energy-absorbing plate 202 is made of a high-efficiency energy-absorbing material.

[0045] Furthermore, the outer casing 201 is made of high-strength, wear-resistant material, and reflective strips are affixed to the outer side of the outer casing 201.

[0046] The outer shell 201 is located on the outer ring and serves as the external protective layer of the device. It is made of high-strength, wear-resistant polyethylene (PE) or polypropylene (PP) material, which has good decorative properties and basic protective capabilities. The thickness of the outer shell 201 is designed to be 15-25mm to ensure sufficient strength and toughness.

[0047] The energy dissipation plate 202 is located between the outer shell 201 and the isolation tube 102. It is made of polyurethane foam, honeycomb aluminum plate or other high-efficiency energy-absorbing materials. It can quickly absorb and dissipate a large amount of impact energy when a vehicle is hit. The thickness of the energy dissipation plate 202 is designed to be 100-150mm, and can also be adjusted according to actual needs.

[0048] The connecting plate 201b on the top of the outer shell 201 can engage with the stiffening rib 104 after installation, thereby limiting the outer shell 201. During installation, the outer shell 201 can be fixedly connected to the base 101 by bolts, strong adhesive and tenon structure, thereby ensuring the stability of the connection between the two.

[0049] The top of the outer casing 201 is through-hole to the corresponding position of the energy dissipation board 202, allowing the energy dissipation board 202 to be installed or replaced directly through the top of the outer casing 201. Alternatively, the corresponding notch on the outer casing 201 can be sealed with a lockable cover. This is existing technology and has not been elaborated on further. This prevents rain, snow, etc. from entering and causing corrosion to the components, which would reduce the protective effect and prevent the pole from being effectively protected in the event of an impact.

[0050] Reflective strips are affixed around the perimeter of the outer casing 201 to serve as a warning to drivers when driving at night, thereby improving road safety.

[0051] Specifically, the outer casing 201 is divided into at least two arcs, and the arcs of the outer casing 201 are fixedly connected by connectors.

[0052] The outer casing 201 is divided into at least two arcs, and both arcs are provided with connecting holes for connection by bolts. The connection points are the same as those of the isolation cylinder 102 and the base 101. It can be spliced ​​and fitted onto the outside of the utility pole and assembled onto the outside of the isolation cylinder 102.

[0053] In summary, during use, firstly, the isolation tube 102 and base 101 are fitted onto the outside of the utility pole to be installed, or assembled onto the outside of an already installed utility pole, ensuring a set gap between them and the pole. Bolts or other fasteners are then used to securely connect them to the ground through the mounting holes 101a. Next, the stiffening ribs 104 are arranged outside the isolation tube 102 according to design requirements and installed in the mounting bracket 103. Bolts or other components can be used to further secure the stiffening ribs 104. Then, the energy-consuming plate 202 is pasted or fixed into the gap between the stiffening ribs 104 and the outer shell 201, ensuring a tight fit without noticeable gaps. Finally, the outer shell 201 is fitted over the energy-consuming plate 202 and the stiffening ribs 104, and securely connected to the stiffening ribs 104 and the ground using bolts or other fixing methods. Simultaneously, the reflective strips on the outer shell are ensured to be firmly pasted and accurately positioned.

[0054] When a vehicle collides with the device, the outer shell 201 initially absorbs the impact, providing preliminary protection and guiding the impact energy to the energy-absorbing plate 202. Subsequently, the impact energy is transferred to the energy-absorbing plate 202, where it is rapidly absorbed and dissipated by a special energy-absorbing material, converting most of the impact energy into the material's internal energy or deformation energy. The stiffening ribs 104 maintain the stability of the structure under impact, reducing deformation and preventing the structure from cracking or collapsing during the impact. Because the stiffening ribs 104 are connected to the isolation tube 102 and the outer shell 201 as a whole, they can more effectively disperse and withstand impact energy. The remaining impact energy after being absorbed by the energy-absorbing plate 202 is borne by the isolation tube 102. Since there is a gap between the isolation tube 102 and the utility pole, and the isolation tube 102 has strong shear bearing capacity, even if the deformation reaches its maximum, it will not cause direct contact or damage to the utility pole.

[0055] It should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solution of this utility model without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of this utility model, and all such modifications or substitutions should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
