Counterweight structure of a traffic cone

摘要

A counterweight structure of a traffic cone contains a base pre-molded and placed into a conical mold so as to injection mold a conical post. The base includes a groove for connecting with the conical post, a connecting piece mounted around the groove, and a plurality of retaining tabs arranged on the connecting piece. Each retaining tab has a neck portion coupled with the groove, and between any two abutting retaining tabs is defined an elongated hole communicating with the connecting piece, two orifices are arranged on two sides of the neck of the each retaining tab and communicate with the connecting piece, such that when the conical post is injection molded to cover the base, the connecting piece, the plurality of retaining tabs and a plurality of retaining tabs horizontally retain together, and a plurality of orifices are provided to vertically connect the conical post and the base together.

主权项

1. A traffic cone comprising: a base pre-molded and placed into a conical mold so as to further injection mold a conical post, wherein a circular opening is defined around a central portion of said base so as to connect with the conical post by way of a connecting piece mounted around an outer peripheral side of the opening, and a plurality of retaining tabs arranged on a top surface and a bottom surface of the connecting piece and evenly spaced apart from one another with each retaining tab having a neck portion coupled with the outer edge of the opening, and an elongated hole arranged between every two adjacent retaining tabs, and two orifices arranged on two sides of the neck of each retaining tab on the connecting piece, such that the conical post being injection molded onto the base, around the connecting piece and the plurality of retaining tabs, and through the plurality of elongated holes and orifices leads to the forming of a plurality of interlocking tabs bonding horizontally, and a plurality of vertically bonding structures through the elongated holes and orifices to connect the conical post and the base together.
