Storage and transport box for flexible and secure storage with quick access of traffic signs (VZ size 2), screwed onto a recessed C-rail

Abstract

Storage and transport box for traffic signs VZ size 2 for rural and county roads, characterized by the fact that it can be easily moved or removed by means of 2 laterally attached handles by means of a C-rail (toothed rail) embedded in a base plate, screwed onto it.

Description

[0001] Storage and transport box for traffic signs VZ size 2 for flexible use on vehicles with rack and pinion, primarily at day construction sites on rural and county roads.

[0002] Roadworks on rural and county roads must be secured with appropriate signage to ensure safe traffic flow and the protection of road users and construction workers. This requires a variety of different traffic signs.

[0003] The flat traffic signs are screwed onto square profiles (usually mounted on base plates). The aluminum square profiles (40x40x3 mm) are clamped and screwed horizontally to the front of the loading platform behind the battery box using a mounting system. The mounting system is screwed onto toothed rails.

[0004] Up to now, flat traffic signs have mostly been stacked haphazardly horizontally on the loading platform. This leads to damage to the signs due to friction and shifting during transport. The traffic signs are exposed to varying weather conditions and dust. Furthermore, the desired traffic sign must be located and pulled out from the pile of signs. This procedure is time-consuming and ultimately costly. In addition, there is the acute danger involved in the lengthy process of setting up traffic control barriers for construction sites on rural and county roads. invention

[0005] We have developed a storage and transport box for housing size 2 traffic signs. It is flexibly attached by means of screws to a C-shaped rail (toothed rail) embedded in the base plate, which is welded to the base frame.

[0006] The storage and transport box can be easily moved using the two handles attached to the sides.

[0007] A maximum of 20 square or round traffic signs and a maximum of 10 triangular traffic signs for rural and county roads can be secured and transported in a storage and transport box.

[0008] The dimensions of the flat signs VZ size 2 are - Rounds ø 600 mm - Rectangles 330 / 450 / 600 × 600 mm - Squares 600 × 600 mm - Triangles with a side length of 900 mm.

[0009] The flat signs are mounted in milled, 20 mm thick POM C-grade plastic plates. The spatially arranged plastic plates and the lid of the storage and transport box ensure the traffic signs are held securely and stably. All traffic signs are clearly visible from above and can be easily removed individually with a finger.

[0010] The aluminum cover protects the traffic signs from environmental influences and dust. The cover is lockable and has a locking mechanism that secures it when opened.

[0011] The flexible fastening system for VZ size 2 thus represents a complex and easy-to-handle, cost-saving transport, holding and load securing system on vehicles.
