Removable base for the vertical elements of street furniture

摘要

The device includes a base for supporting one or more vertical elements of a piece of street furniture (such as a lamp post, a traffic sign, an advertising post, etc.), wherein the base can include two parts or pieces nested together, one over the other, with a lower part anchored to the ground while the upper part is nested against the other by a pair of flanges. The relative movement between the upper and lower parts is restrained by the action of a brake including a plate which is fastened with a bolt and a nut to the upper part of the base. The plate has a recessed area at each end, where a nylon pellet is placed and whose breakage, when caused by a lateral force to the base, frees the upper part, allowing it to slide over the lower part.

1. A removable base for a vertical element of a piece of street furniture comprising: an upper part formed by a flat metal plate which has a pair of wings at each end, in the shape of an “L” and of a lower part in the form of a “U”, which in its upper portion has a pair of flanges arranged horizontally which also have ribs arranged substantially symmetrical with respect to a transverse axis of the pair of flanges, a group of stop pads, a pair of pellets, a brake formed by a rectangular plate which has a stud at its centre and a vertical element of a furniture item that is joined to the upper part by an anchor plate, wherein the upper part comprises the pair of wings at an interior of the upper part; and wherein the lower part has in its upper portion the pair of flanges arranged horizontally, so that by coupling the upper part with the lower part, the pair of wings and the pair of flanges have their faces substantially parallel to each other, separated by a space substantially equal to a width of the stop pads which are inserted into each of four corners of the removable base; where the pair of wings of the upper part are suspended in a central area, in a width equal to that of the rectangular plate, having the stud of the brake of a length at least 3 cm longer than an existing length of a lower face of the flanges and an upper face of the upper part of the removable base having the rectangular plate of the brake with a respective recess at each end of the rectangular plate that are each provided with at least one of the pair of pellets, which are embedded in the recesses and stop pads.
