Curbstone and stop

Abstract

A curbstone in particular for a stop has a base body of a dimensionally stable material, on the upper side of which an attached part of an at least partly elastic material is fixed at least in sections. The attached part has a compressible section on at least one side; wherein the attached part, adjacent to the side with the compressible section, has at least one hollow chamber, the shape of which can be changed when the section is pressed together. As a result, the risk of damage to the bodywork is reduced by the attached part.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A curbstone comprising:
 a base body ( 2 ) of a dimensionally stable material, and   an attached part attached at least in sections on an upper side of the base body, the attached part being of an at least partly elastic material,   wherein the attached part comprises a compressible section on at least one side; and   wherein the attached part, adjacent to the side with the compressible section, has at least one hollow chamber, the shape of which hollow chamber can be changed when the compressible section is pressed together.   
     
     
         2 . The curbstone according to  claim 1 , wherein an elastic lip is provided on the compressible section. 
     
     
         3 . The curbstone according to  claim 1 , wherein the hollow chamber is designed so as to be open towards the base body. 
     
     
         4 . The curbstone according to  claim 1 , wherein the at least one hollow chamber is formed in a closed manner in the attached part. 
     
     
         5 . The curbstone according to  claim 1 , wherein the base body has a step on its upper side and a higher region faces the rear side and a lower region faces the front side. 
     
     
         6 . The curbstone according to  claim 5 , wherein a contact surface, which is supported on the step, is formed on the attached part. 
     
     
         7 . The curbstone according to  claim 1 , wherein the attached part is formed in an essentially plate-shaped manner and the height of the attached part is at least 3 cm. 
     
     
         8 . The curbstone according to  claim 1 , wherein the attached part is made of a rubber material or plastic. 
     
     
         9 . The curbstone according to  claim 1 , wherein the attached part has an anti-slip profiling on its upper side. 
     
     
         10 . The curbstone according to  claim 1 , wherein the base body has on a front side an inclined surface for a track steering of a tire. 
     
     
         11 . The curbstone according to  claim 1 , wherein the attached part is inter-changeably fixed to the base body by screws, rails or tongue-and-groove joints. 
     
     
         12 . A curbstone according to  claim 1 , wherein the attached part has, on at least one end face, a projecting positioning element which is configured to engage in a recess on an end face of an adjacent attached part. 
     
     
         13 . A stop for buses or trains, comprising at least one curbstone according to  claim 1 . 
     
     
         14 . The curbstone according to  claim 7 , wherein the height of the attached part is between 5 and 20 cm.
