专利说明:
STREET ELEMENT AND METHOD FOR MANUFACTURING SUCH A STREET ELEMENT The invention relates to a street element, such as a pavement tile, a paving stone. a pavement belt, a separation belt, a concrete belt, a (grass) concrete tile, or a pole comprising, based on received light, from a light source remote from the street element, light reflecting light and / or passive light emitting means. Such a street element is known from the Dutch application with number NL2007175 of the present applicant. The marking means are herein arranged over substantially the entire outer surface of the street element. It is an object of the invention to improve the street element from NL2007175. In particular, it is an object of the invention to increase the visibility of the street element relative to that from NL2007175 and / or to lower the cost price of the street element relative to that from NL2007175 and / or the durability of the street element relative to of those from NL2007175. In an embodiment of the street element according to the invention this object is achieved by a street element of the type mentioned in the preamble, which street element is characterized in that a recess is provided in the street element, in which recess the marking means are accommodated. By accommodating the marking means in a recess and not over substantially the entire surface of the street element, the amount of marking means used can be reduced, while the reflection value of and / or the amount of light emitted by the street element can remain virtually the same. Moreover, by placing these in the recess, the marking means are arranged recessed relative to the outer surface of the street element, or at least do not protrude outside the outer surface of the street element, and therefore they are better protected against traffic and / or weather influences, whereby the street element remains reflective for longer and / or longer emits light. It is noted that the recess can have any desired shape and / or size and / or depth. In another embodiment of the street element according to the invention this object is achieved by a street element of the type mentioned in the preamble, which street element is characterized in that the street element comprises an adhesive layer applied to it, to which the marking means are adhered. By selectively applying the adhesive layer to the street element and attaching the marking means to it, the amount of marking means used can be reduced, while the reflection value of and / or the amount of light emitted by the street element can remain substantially the same or even be increased. Alternatively or additionally, the amount of marking means used may remain relatively small, since substantially all marking means are on the surface of the street element and are not included in the street element and may therefore be covered as may be the case when the marking means are street element or a coating thereof. As a result, virtually all particles used in the street element according to the invention have an effective effect. As appears from the above, the adhesive layer is in particular not the (basic) material of the street element itself, nor is it a cover layer thereof. For example, it is known to mix marking means by the (basic) material of the street element or a cover layer thereof if this has not yet hardened. However, as a result of this the particles can get too deep into the street element or the covering layer thereof, so that they are not visible on the surface and therefore have no effect. The street element according to this embodiment of the invention, wherein the marking means are adhered to the adhesive layer, obviates this problem. It is noted that where the adhesive layer is applied to the street element, this is also understood to mean applying the adhesive layer to a covering layer or other part of the street element. The adhesive layer is preferably applied to the street element after the street element has at least partially cured. In this way it is effectively prevented that the marking means can get into the street element itself. The adhesive layer has, for example, a thickness which is at most as great as and preferably smaller than a (minimum) cross-sectional dimension of the marking means. An advantage hereof is that the marking means cannot get too deep into the adhesive layer and it is therefore guaranteed that the marking means are visible on the outer surface of the adhesive layer. It is further noted that the marking means are preferably adhered directly to the adhesive layer, and in particular not via a carrier or the like. The adhesive layer is preferably arranged in one or the recess, so that the marking means adhered to the adhesive layer are included in the recess. The advantages of the above described embodiment with recess are also achieved. In an embodiment of the street element according to the invention, the adhesive layer has a light color, for example white, silver or (light) gray. It has been found by the applicant that the reflection value of the adhesive layer with marking means is hereby relatively high. The adhesive layer can be any suitable adhesive layer, such as, but not exclusively, sealant, glue, or the like. However, the applicant has found that, in particular, sealant is a suitable adhesive layer. The kit can be selected as desired based on desired properties. For example, the kit according to the invention is preferably UV-resistant, so that the kit does not lose its color after exposure to sunlight, and thus retains its reflection value. The kit preferably has good adhesion, so that on the one hand it adheres well to the street element and on the other hand the marking means adhere well to the kit layer. In an embodiment of the street element according to the invention, the marking means comprise light-reflecting particles selected from the group comprising glass, metal, plastic, ceramic and natural stone. Such light-reflecting particles can effectively reflect light and make the street element containing such particles clearly visible under the influence of received light. The ceramic can be, for example, titanium nitride. In a particular embodiment of the street element according to the invention, the particles are transparent and have a characteristic linear dimension in the range of 0.5 - 1.5 mm, preferably approximately 1 mm. The applicant has found that, in particular glass, beads with a diameter of about 1 mm reflect effectively received light and provide a clearly visible street element. In particular, it has been found by the applicant that the visibility of a street element comprising such glass beads or other transparent particles is further increased if the street element and / or a base material thereof and / or the adhesive layer are a light color, for example white , silver or gray. Such particles with such a size are, however, relatively expensive. According to the invention, however, only a small amount of particles need to be used, making it possible to use the relatively expensive particles, in particular optionally a high density of particles over a relatively small surface. As a result, the street element can even have a higher reflection value than when larger particles are used over a larger surface. It is clear that other particles with different shapes and materials can be used instead of glass beads. For example, glass fragments or shreds of glass can be used, or plastic particles of any shape. In another embodiment of the street element according to the invention, the particles have a chosen color. By choosing a specific color, a message can be delivered to the road user. For example, particles with a red color give a warning to the road user, while particles with a green color give a positive signal to the road user. For example, one side of the street element, for example a pole, may contain green particles, and the other side of the street element may contain red particles. The street element can be arranged on the road in such a way that if the user is on the right side of the road, the side of the street element containing the green particles is facing him or her, while if the user is on the wrong side of the road, a so-called ghost driver, precisely the side of the street element containing the red particles is facing him or her. As a result, the road user receives a message in a simple manner that he is showing safe or unsafe driving behavior. Alternatively or additionally, the particles can be arranged in or on the street element in a specific pattern, for example by providing a recess and / or adhesive layer in a specific pattern. Such a pattern can also convey a message as described above, but is also readable by color-blind road users. As described above, it may be desirable if the marking means emit passive light. As a result, street elements containing such marking means are clearly visible in the dark for any road user, while this does not require any energy. To this end, the marking means comprise luminescent and / off-fluorescent and / or phosphorescent components. Preferably, the components are selected from the group comprising strontium, calcium, and. zinc, and salts and oxides thereof. The street element is practically made of concrete. The invention also relates to a method for manufacturing a street element as described above, comprising the following steps: a) providing a street element, b) providing the street element with light-reflecting and / or passive light-emitting marking means. In a preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, step b) is carried out by receiving the marking means in a recess of the street element. The advantages of this are explained above. It is noted that the street element can already comprise the recess, or that the recess can alternatively be provided in the street element. The recess can be provided, for example, in a wet, yet uncured state of the street element, for example by means of a mold or stamp. Alternatively or additionally, a recess can be provided in an already cured street element, for example by milling or drilling. This would, for example, be advantageous for adapting already existing street elements. In another preferred embodiment of the method according to the invention, step b) is carried out by the steps of: b1) applying an adhesive layer to the street element, optionally in a recess of the street element, and b2) adhering the marking means to the adhesive layer. Step b2) can be pp each; suitable manner, in particular, step b2) is carried out such that, after the marking means are adhered to the adhesive layer, the marking means are directly visible on the outer surface of the adhesive layer, and that no brushing or washing step is required is. The marking means can for instance be scattered in the adhesive layer. Preferably, however, step b2) is carried out by shooting the marking means into the adhesive layer, for example with compressed air. This provides a firm adhesion between the marking means and the adhesive layer, because they are shot into it with a certain depth. The adhesive layer can be applied in any desired manner, for example with an automatic adhesive layer gun, for example a caulking gun. Step b1) is preferably carried out by applying the adhesive layer on a street element, optionally in a recess thereof, which is at least partially cured. This can for example be a newly manufactured street element, which is at least partially cured, or an already existing street element. In this way it is effectively prevented that the marking means can get into the street element itself. , Step b1) is preferably carried out in such a way that the adhesive layer has a thickness which is at most as great as and preferably smaller than a (minimum) cross-sectional dimension of the marking means. An advantage hereof is that the marking means cannot get too deep into the adhesive layer and it is therefore guaranteed that the marking means are visible on the outer surface of the adhesive layer. . In step b2) the marking means are preferably adhered directly to the adhesive layer, and in particular not via a carrier or the like. As previously described, it is advantageous if the adhesive layer has a light color, for example white, silver or (light) gray. As previously described, it is advantageous if the adhesive layer comprises kit. The marking means can practically contain light-reflecting particles selected from the group comprising glass, metal, plastic, ceramic (titanium nitride) and natural stone. As previously described, it is advantageous if the particles are transparent and have a characteristic linear dimension in the range of 0.5 - 1.5 mm, preferably about 1 mm. The invention will be further elucidated with reference to figures shown in a drawing, in which: The invention will be further elucidated with reference to figures shown in a drawing, in which: figure 1 shows a side view of two street elements according to the invention; - figure 2 shows a Jangs section. through a part of a street element of figure 1; figure 3 shows a perspective view of the street elements of figure 1; and - figure 4 shows a perspective view of two street elements according to a second embodiment of the invention. Figure 1 shows a pavement belt 1 and a pole 2, each of which is made, for example, of concrete. A recess 6 is provided in each of the pavement belt 1 and the post 2, in which recess 6 markers in the form of glass balls 5 with a diameter of approximately 1 mm are each received. Figure 1 shows that light from headlights 3 of a car 4 is effectively reflected by the glass balls 5. As a result, the curbs 1 and the pole 2 are also clearly visible to the driver of the car 4. As can be seen from figure 1, the car 4 appears to be moving in the direction of the curb and the post 2, but the light-reflecting balls 5 warns the driver in time, so that he or she can move in time. and an accident can be prevented. Optionally, the balls 5 on the side of the pole 2 facing the driver can be colored red, so that the driver knows that it is dangerous to approach the pole 2 from that side. The other side of the pole 2 may optionally contain green balls 5, whereby a driver of a car driving parallel to the curb 1 (not shown) and thereby exhibiting safe behavior, receives a signal that he or she is safely driving the pole. 2 will pass. The pole 2 from figure 1 is shown in longitudinal section in figure 2. This shows that an adhesive layer 7 is provided in the recess 6. The adhesive layer 7 is, for example, cement, but can also be another suitable adhesive layer. The beads 5 are adhered to the adhesive layer 7. For example, the beads 5 are adhered to the adhesive layer 7 by shooting them into the adhesive layer 7 with pressure, for example by using compressed air. As a result, the balls 5 will be shot into the adhesive layer 7 with some depth, so that they adhere well, but also protrude from the adhesive layer 7 with a sufficiently large volume so as to effectively reflect the light in cooperation with the adhesive layer 7. The adhesive layer 7 preferably has a light color, for example white, silver, gray or the like, so that the reflection value of the adhesive layer 7 with spheres 5 is relatively large. The adhesive layer used, in particular sealant, is preferably UV resistant, so that the adhesive layer does not lose its color after exposure to sunlight, and thus retains its reflection value. The adhesive layer preferably has good adhesion, so that on the one hand it adheres well to the street element and on the other hand the marking means adhere well to the adhesive layer. As is furthermore apparent from Figure 2, the beads 5 do not protrude outside the outer surface of the pile 2, so that they are arranged in a protected manner. It is noted that the adhesive layer 7 in Figure 2 is of relatively thick design. If desired, the adhesive layer can be thinner, especially with a thickness that is at most equal to or smaller than the cross-sectional dimension or diameter of the spheres. It can be seen from Figures 2 and 3 that in the case of the pile 2 the balls 5 are arranged substantially adjacent to each other. The recess 6 therefore has a high density of relatively small beads 5. It has been found by the applicant that a relatively high density of small reflective particles, in particular with a diameter of approximately 1 mm, provide a relatively high reflection value of the street element . In particular, the reflection value of the street element is higher than for an element in which relatively large particles, for example with a diameter of approximately 3 mm, are mixed with a lower density in the material of the street element. This offers the advantage that the relatively expensive small particles can nevertheless be used, since they are used with a high density, but only in a relatively small area, and therefore the total amount of expensive particles used per street element remains limited. The costs for the street element according to the present invention can therefore be lower than for the known street element, while the reflection value can be higher. It also appears from Figure 3 that in the case of the curb 1 the density of spheres 5 is lower than for the post 2. This can be advantageous, for example, if a lower reflection value is sufficient for the particular application, or if the costs play a large role play. It is noted that the pavement tiles 8 in Figure 3 are shown without marking means, but it is clear that if desired they can contain them. Figure 4 shows a pavement belt 11 and a pole 12, both of which contain passive light-emitting marking means 15. The marking means 15, which contain, for example, fluorescent components, for example, absorb energy from sunlight during the day, whereby atoms of the fluorescent components end up in an excited state, which later falls back to the ground state with the transmission of a photon. In this way the pavement belt 11 and the pole 12 emit light at least during a part of the night, so that they are clearly visible to road users. Similar to the beads 5, the marking means 15, for example the fluorescent components, can be arranged in a recess 16 of the street element 11,12. For example, they may be adhered to an adhesive layer. It is noted that the invention is not limited to the exemplary embodiments discussed above, but also extends to other variants within the scope of the appended claims. The street element can thus be any street element of any material. Other marking means can also be used.
