A tool consisting of a road cone and a cone bar.

Abstract

The objective is to provide a cone bar that can be inserted into a road cone and erected without having to remove the ring structure provided at the end of the cone bar from the cone bar. [Solution] The ring structure 21 of the cone bar 20 comprises an annular ring body 25. The ring body 25 is made of a material such as resin, rubber, or metal, and is characterized by being deformable. The cone bar 20 configured in this way can be inserted into the opening 12 formed at the top of the main body 11 of the road cone 10. Since the ring body 25 is deformable, the shape of the ring body 25 can be changed to allow it to pass through the opening 12, thereby erecting the cone bar 20 on the road cone 10.

Summary of the Invention

Problems to be Solved by the Invention

[0004] The cone bar used together with the road cone is used by being installed between the main body part (conical part) of the road cone and the main body part (conical part), and has solely served as a regulation zone. However, the inventor of this application has invented a groundbreaking method for displaying information by inserting the cone bar into an opening formed at the top of the main body of the road cone, thereby erecting the cone bar as a support column, and then suspending information display media from it.

[0005] However, since the cone bars were not designed to be erected as supports until then, the ring structures at both ends of the cone bars were rigid and could not be deformed. Therefore, it was not possible to insert the cone bars into the road cones, and in order to erect the cone bars onto the road cones, it was necessary to remove the ring structures from the cone bars. Therefore, the inventor of the present invention pondered how to provide a device that would allow the cone bar to be inserted into the road cone and erected without having to remove the ring structure from the cone bar, and thus completed the present invention. [Means for solving the problem]

[0006] The first invention of the present invention is a ring structure for a cone bar, characterized in that the ring structures provided at both ends of the cone bar, which is installed between the main bodies of a road cone having a conical main body, are deformable and are fitted into the main body of the road cone. The second invention is a ring structure for a cone bar according to the first invention, characterized in that the ring structure comprises a cap that fits onto the end of the cone bar and an annular ring body attached to the cap, wherein the ring body is deformable. The third invention is a ring structure for a cone bar according to the second invention, characterized in that the cap has a locking portion that can lock a hook when the cone bar is erected. The fourth invention is a cone bar characterized by having a ring structure of a cone bar according to any of the first to third inventions described above. [Effects of the Invention]

[0007] The present invention has the following effects. (1) The ring structures provided at both ends of the cone bar are deformable, which allows the cone bar to be erected between the main bodies of the road cones, and also allows the cone bar to be inserted into the opening formed at the top of the main body of the road cone without having to remove the ring structures from the cone bar, thereby erecting the cone bar. (2) By erecting a cone bar on a road cone, the road cone acts as a base and the cone bar acts as a support, allowing for stable erection. (3) The ring structure comprises a cap that fits over the end of the cone bar and an annular ring body attached to the cap, and the ring body is deformable, so that the cone bar can be inserted into the road cone, and the cone bar can be erected on the road cone without removing the ring structure from the cone bar. (4) The ring structure cap of the cone bar is equipped with a locking part, so that when the cone bar is inserted into the road cone and the cone bar is erected, locking members and locking parts such as hooks can be locked in place, and information display media can be securely suspended and displayed by the locking members and locking parts.

[0009] Hereinafter, embodiments of the "ring structure of the cone bar" according to the present invention will be described based on the drawings. Note that the embodiments described below are examples of the present invention and are not limited thereto.

[0010] First, a first embodiment of the "ring structure of the cone bar" according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 1. As shown in the figure, the first embodiment of the "ring structure of the cone bar" includes a cap 22 in which a ring structure 21 is fitted to the end of the cone bar 20, and an annular ring body 25 attached to the cap 22. The ring body 25 is made of a material such as resin, rubber, or metal, and is characterized by being deformable. Here, a binding band is used as the ring body 25, and the ring body 25 is bound inside the cap 22 and its length is adjusted.

[0011] Next, a second embodiment of the "ring structure of the cone bar" according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 2. As shown in the figure, the second embodiment of the "ring structure of the cone bar" includes a cap 22 in which a ring structure 21 is fitted to the end of the cone bar, and an annular ring body 28 attached to the cap 22. The ring body 28 is made of a material such as rubber, resin, or metal having a circular or polygonal cross-section in the longitudinal direction, and is characterized by being deformable.

[0012] Furthermore, a third embodiment of the "ring structure of the cone bar" according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 3. As shown in the figure, the third embodiment of the "ring structure of the cone bar" is one in which the ring structure 21 is fitted into the conical main body portion 11 of the load cone 10, and the cone bar 20 is installed between the load cone 10 and the load cone 10. Since the ring structure 21 includes the ring body 25 (or 28), a general usage method (erection or regulation zone) as the cone bar 20 as shown in the figure can be implemented.

[0013] Also, a fourth embodiment of the "ring structure of the cone bar" according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 4. As shown in the figure, the fourth embodiment of the "ring structure of the cone bar" is to insert the cone bar 20 into the opening 12 formed at the top of the main body 11 of the load cone 10. Here, since the ring body 25 (or 28) of the ring structure 21 is deformable, the opening 12 can be inserted by deforming the shape of the ring body 25 (or 28), and the cone bar 20 can be erected on the load cone 10. Thus, with the load cone 10 as the base, the cone bar 20 can be used as a support to display an information display medium (not shown).

[0014] Finally, the fifth embodiment of the "ring structure of the cone bar" according to the present invention will be described with reference to FIG. 5. As shown in the figure, the fifth embodiment of the "ring structure of the cone bar" is to display the information display medium 30 by hanging it with the cone bar 20 as a support. Here, an S-shaped hook 35 as a locking member is hung on the ring structure 21 to hang the information display medium 30. At this time, by providing a convex locking portion 23 on the cap 22, the S-shaped hook 35 can be surely and easily hung on the ring structure 21. Note that not only a hook member but also a string-like member such as a chain or a rope may be used.

Industrial Applicability

[0015] The "ring structure of the cone bar" according to the present invention can be widely used not only as a general cone bar in combination with a load cone but also as a support for hanging an information display medium.
