Reflectors

Abstract

According to the present invention, there is an improved road reflector comprised by a support base ( 6 ), a top casing ( 1 ) and reflecting crystals ( 5 ), wherein said support base ( 6 ) is coupled with the top casing ( 1 ) through a plurality of fastening flanges ( 12 ) and through a plurality of vertical reinforcements ( 7 ) interlayed therebetween and at least two fastening channels ( 8 ) with angular walls ( 8 a ) that provide an adhesive and mechanical reinforcement.

1 . An improved road reflector comprised by a support base ( 2 ), a top casing ( 1 ) and reflecting crystals ( 5 ); said support base  6  is coupled with the top casing ( 1 ) through a plurality of fastening flanges ( 12 ) and through a plurality of vertical reinforcements ( 7 ) interlayed therebetween; wherein the support base ( 2 ) has a lower surface with at least two fastening channels ( 8 ) with angular walls ( 8   a ) that provide an adhesive and mechanical reinforcement. 
     
     
         2 . An improved road reflector as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the main body ( 1 ) is comprised by two tilted walls ( 2 ) and two circular heads ( 3 ). 
     
     
         3 . An improved road reflector as claimed in  claim 2 , wherein the tilted walls ( 2 ) form a bas-relief housing recess ( 11 ) that allows for the coupling of the reflecting crystals ( 5 ). 
     
     
         4 . An improved road reflector as claimed in  claim 1 , comprising: a fastening area ( 4 ) that projects from the top end of the main body ( 1 ) up to a central point over the circular heads ( 3 ). 
     
     
         5 . An improved road reflector as claimed in claim ( 1 ), wherein the support base ( 6 ) is comprised by a substantially flat-shaped main body, a plurality of parallel reinforcements ( 7 ) in the top portion and a substantially concave-shaped bas-relief area ( 9 ) located at the short ends of the support base ( 6 ). 
     
     
         6 . An improved road reflector as claimed in  claim 5 , wherein the parallel reinforcements ( 7 ) have a substantially staggered shape. 
     
     
         7 . An improved road reflector as claimed in claims and  5 , wherein the fastening channels ( 8 ) have angular walls ( 8   a ) with a slope of less than 90°. 
     
     
         8 . An improved road reflector as claimed in claims and  5 , wherein the free areas not comprised by the fastening channels ( 8 ) are comprised by a plurality of hexagonal anchoring recesses ( 10 ). 
     
     
         9 . An improved road reflector as claimed in  claim 8 , wherein the hexagonal anchoring recesses ( 10 ) may be of any shape. 
     
     
         10 . An improved road reflector as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the reflecting crystals ( 5 ) are comprised by 178 high quality prisms with diagonal divisions ( 5   a ) that allow to maintain a higher effectiveness percentage during all the shelf life thereof. 
     
     
         11 . An improved road reflector as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the reflecting crystals ( 5 ) are comprised by 178 high quality prisms with diagonal divisions ( 5   a ) that allow to maintain a higher effectiveness percentage during all the shelf life thereof. 
     
     
         12 . An improved road reflector as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the parallel reinforcements ( 7 ) form middle receptor channels ( 7   a ). 
     
     
         13 . An improved road reflector as claimed in  claim 1 , wherein the fastening flanges ( 12 ) form middle receptor channels ( 12   a ).
