Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This invention relates to a sign stand fixing bracket. [Background technology]
[0002] The sign stand fixing bracket can vertically set up and fix construction signs used at construction sites and the like (for example, Patent Document 1). [Prior art documents] [Patent documents]
[0003] [Patent Document 1] Registered Utility Model No. 3241700 Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0004] Conventional sign stand fixing brackets were limited in the sign size they could accommodate, and many could not be used on signs other than the specified size. Furthermore, the display surface was only one-sided, making it difficult to utilize both sides for displaying information. Furthermore, the method of fixing the sign to the ground relied on placing weights on the base, which created stability issues in strong winds and other situations. Additionally, the bases are heavy and made of steel, so the bases themselves must be stacked when storing or transporting the sign, which can cause the load to collapse, creating issues in terms of safety and work efficiency.
[0005] The present invention was made in light of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to provide a sign stand fixing bracket that can be adjusted to fit construction signs of different thicknesses and widths with a single fixing bracket, can accommodate single-sided displays or double-sided displays by attaching to two opposing sides, can be used with a weight on the base, has four holes for fixing to the ground so it can be fixed directly to the ground, improving wind resistance and stability, and has protrusions on the top of the base to prevent cargo from falling, ensuring stacking stability during storage and transportation, thereby simultaneously improving safety and efficiency in the series of operations of installation, removal, storage and transportation. [Means for solving the problem]
[0006] To achieve the above objective, the sign stand fixing bracket of the present invention comprises a rectangular sign base with horizontally long grooves on the inner surfaces of at least two opposing sides, a sign fixing member with sign fixing bolt holes, and a nut plate and a sign fixing member bolt slidably arranged in the horizontally long grooves on the two sides. The sign fixing member bolts are inserted through the sign fixing bolt holes and fastened to the nut plate, thereby fixing the sign fixing member to the sign base at any position across the sign. The sign fixing member also includes sign fixing bolts and nuts, each of which has a sign fixing hole through which the sign fixing bolts are inserted to hold the sign upright with the nuts. A weight can be placed on the horizontal portion of an L-shaped bar inserted into the horizontal groove. The sign base also has ground fixing holes at the four corners or four locations on the periphery, allowing it to be fixed to the ground by attaching components to the ground fixing holes. Furthermore, there are multiple protrusions on the top surface of the sign base to position it when stacked, preventing misalignment when the bases are stacked, ensuring stability during storage and transportation.
[0007] The sign fixing member is configured as a pair of holding members used to hold the sign, arranged on the left and right to sandwich the sign. When one sign is sandwiched, it can be displayed on one side, and when two signs are sandwiched together with the sign faces facing outward, it can be displayed on both sides. The mounting position of the holding member can be adjusted along the horizontal groove, allowing for positioning according to differences in sign width, thickness, and height. This configuration allows a single fixing bracket to fit a variety of sign sizes, allowing for the selection of single-sided or double-sided display, while also ensuring secure installation with weights placed on the L-shaped bar and ground fixing holes, and preventing misalignment when stacked with the protrusions. [Effects of the Invention]
[0008] This invention uses sign fixing components that allow a single fixing bracket to accommodate a variety of construction sign sizes, reducing inventory and management burdens. Single-sided or double-sided options are available, improving visibility and information transmission on-site. Furthermore, weights can be placed on the horizontal part of the L-shaped bar inserted into the horizontal groove, and ground fixing holes can be used to secure the sign directly to the ground, ensuring high stability even in strong winds. Furthermore, the protrusions on the top of the sign base ensure proper positioning and prevent misalignment when stacked, reducing the risk of cargo falling during storage and transportation. These improvements improve safety and work efficiency throughout the installation, removal, storage, and transportation processes, contributing to shorter work times and reduced costs.

[Figure 7] This is an enlarged view of the sign base of the present invention with an L-shaped rod attached. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
[0010] One embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to Figures 1 to 7. The sign stand fixing bracket comprises a sign base 1, two sign fixing members 2, four nut plates 3, and four bolts for the sign fixing members. The sign base 1 is a rectangular metal base with long horizontal grooves 13 on the inside surfaces of at least two opposing sides. Two nut plates 3 are slidably positioned in each of the long horizontal grooves 13 on each of the two sides. An L-shaped rod 7 (metal rod or metal angle bar) is inserted into the long horizontal grooves 13 to hold the sign base 1 upright. Ground fixing holes 11 are provided at the four corners or periphery of the sign base 1. Furthermore, the top surface of the sign base 1 is provided with multiple protrusions 12 to position the sign bases 1 when stacked and prevent them from shifting relative to one another. All components are made of metal.
[0011] Assembly and installation are described with reference to Figures 1 to 3 and 5 to 7. First, a sign fixing member 2 (a metal sheetwork product) is placed in a predetermined position on the sign base 1. Then, sign fixing member bolts 4 are inserted through the sign fixing bolt holes 8 and fastened with a nut plate 3. At this time, the two sign fixing members 2 are fixed to the sign base 1 so that they sandwich the sign and hold it upright. Next, sign fixing bolts 5 are inserted through the sign fixing holes 10 formed in the sign fixing members 2, and nuts 6 are screwed onto the back side to fasten the sign to the sign fixing members 2. This further secures the sign upright. For single-sided displays, simply place one sign between the sign fixing members 2; for double-sided displays, simply place the sign facing outward. If necessary, a weight can be placed on the horizontal portion of the L-shaped rod 7 inserted into the horizontal groove 13. Then, a member can be attached to the ground fixing holes 11 to secure the sign to the ground, enhancing stability in windy conditions.
[0012] The storage and transportation states are explained with reference to Figure 4. When storing, after removing the sign, the sign fixing member 2 is tilted inward of the base 1, and the sign fixing bolt 5 is temporarily fixed with the storage hole 9 and nut 6, preventing it from flapping during transportation. The L-shaped rod 7 is removed from the horizontal groove 13 and can be placed side by side on the base 1, or stored separately. When stacking multiple units, the protrusion 12 on the upper sign base 1 is positioned by abutting the corresponding position on the lower sign base 1, preventing misalignment when the bases are stacked and preventing the load from falling over. The above configuration contributes to improved safety and work efficiency in each process of installation, removal, storage, and transportation.
[0013] The above describes the embodiments of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiments, and can be implemented by appropriately changing the shape, dimensions, and material of each component, the number of protrusions, the number of L-shaped rods, etc., within the scope of the matters described in the scope of the utility model registration claims.
