Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION

The present invention relates to an impact absorption facility for road, and in particular to an impact absorption facility for road which makes it possible to protect a road center, a road side, a road ramp, an entering side of a tunnel or an underground road, pillars, faith silk or others and to absorb the impact of vehicle collided and to decelerate during a collision by decreasing the impacts occurring due to the impact of a vehicle by installing the impact absorption facility even in a highway ramp, and it is possible to prevent a vehicle from entering an opposite road lane or going out of a road for thereby allowing the vehicle to run on a normal road and to return to a road. A traffic accident can be effectively prevented with the help of a lighting lamp or a reflection lamp when a vehicle approaches the impact absorption facility when a driver drives at night with sleepiness.

Since a conventional impact absorption facility is formed of a protective wall, a protective mount, a guide rail each made of a waste tire, a steel material or concrete, the friction force increases at the time when a vehicle collides, so a vehicle is damaged or broken, leading to casualties.

The conventional impact absorption facility is generally made of a concrete block or a steel material. The impact absorption facility is installed in one side of an asphalt road or a road side of a pedestrian road. The impact absorption facility is made by installing a basic concrete after casting and by vertically installing a steel pile in a center of the basic concrete. A zinc-coated steel plate formed in a wing shape is installed in the steel pile in a road side.

The conventional impact absorption facility is most widely used with its easier construction. In the road crossing a housing complex, the impact absorption facility made of a concrete block is installed, and a noise absorption plate is installed.

As vehicle collision accidents increase year after year, a lot of impact absorption facilities installed in a sharp curve and a mountain area are damaged. In particular, since it is made of a metallic material or a concrete block, casualties might increase when a vehicle collides, and a lot of budget is needed so as to maintain the damaged impact absorption facility.

In order to overcome the above problems, a vehicle collision absorption apparatus is installed in a place where a vehicle can collide. The impact absorption facility with an impact absorption apparatus can be classified into a recovery type impact absorption facility with a function for recovering the vehicle in a direction that the vehicle is originally intended to run, and a non-recovery type impact absorption facility which can make the vehicle stop as the facility fully absorbs the impact of the vehicle.

Generally, the impact absorption facility is installed so as to secure the safety of passenger by stopping the vehicle or changing the direction of the vehicle when colliding with fixed structure and so as to prevent a secondary accident that a certain accident occurs after the vehicle collided with the obstacle and so as to protect the major structures of the road such as a pillar or the something.

Such impact absorption facility is installed in a place where needs a protection of people and facility due to the collision with the vehicle like in the center line of the road or a road side, a road junction, an end portion, a pillar, a highway tollgate, a tunnel, an underground entrance, a retained wall, a down slope section of a curved road, etc.

In case of the impact absorption facility embedded in the center line of the road or the road side, it can effectively absorb and distribute the impact for thereby decreasing the accident and the hurts of people. However t is impossible to actually decrease the speed of the vehicle due to the rotational force of the impact absorption member such as a manmade absorption material like waste tires and Styrofoam. When impacting, the speed the vehicle generally increases, so the vehicle goes out of the running lane. In this case, a secondary accident may occur as the vehicle collides with another running vehicle of another running lane, which might cause a huge accident.

The impact absorption facility embedded in the centerline or the road side has a complicated construction which might lead to increasing the unit cost, and the assembling time might increase due to a lot of elements to be assembled at site. In particular, when it is hard to see the front side vehicles in curved roads or uphill roads, the vehicle collides and keeps running without deceleration, from which a huge accident can occur.

In the road protective member for impact absorption of Korean patent registration number 0740552, the following problems might occur. Namely, since the vehicle collides and keeps running with its before-accident speed, the impact absorption body maintains original rotational speed. So, the vehicle that collided might collapse and might get popped out of the running road. Since the rotational speed of the impact absorption body is in proportion to the impact speed in the course of the impact of the vehicle, it is actually hard to prevent safety accidents due to the deceleration of a vehicle, so that a secondary traffic accident such as a collapse or a road escape can occur.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION

Accordingly, it is an object of the present invention to provide an impact absorption facility for road which has ultraviolet ray block, dust attachment prevention, light reflection and nightglow and makes it possible to absorb and release the impacts that the vehicle receives when the vehicle collides with the impact absorption facility with an elastic member such as rubber or synthetic resin which is capable of absorbing the impacts.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the present invention is basically directed to an impact absorption facility for road which is installed in a centerline of a road or road sides for thereby absorbing and distributing the impacts occurring when a vehicle collides.

The present invention includes a column-shaped pile 10 fixedly embedded in a centerline of a road or road sides at regular intervals, and a rotation support pipe 20 which is engaged with the help of the pipe 10 and is rotatable.

The rotation support pipe 20 includes an engaging member 201 which is engaged to its outer side and is rotatable, a plurality of cushioning members 200a each formed in a cylindrical shape and made from integral elastic rubber material in its inner and outer sides, with a high luminance reflection band 205 being engaged to each cushioning member, and a plurality of safety rails 300a which are installed in the cushioning roller member 200a at regular intervals and are integrally horizontal in the upper and lower sides of each pile 10.

The facility of the present invention is installed in the upper and lower sides of the outer surface of the rotation support pipe 20 with the cushioning roller member 200a. A first fixing groove 21 is formed in one surface of the rotation support pipe 20, and as shown in FIG. 12, a second fixing groove 602 is formed in a portion of the inner surface of the engaging hole 601 and is fixed by means of a first fixing pin 22. A first rotation block plate 600a is provided with a plurality of first protrusions 603 upwardly protruded from its one surface in a radial shape.

The rotation support pipe 20 is installed in the upper and lower sides of the pipe 10 so that its upper and lower sides are mounted on the upper and lower surfaces of the first rotation block plate 600a. As shown in FIG. 5, the pile 10 is provided with a third fixing groove 11 in its one side, and a fourth fixing groove 602 is formed in a portion of the inner surface of the engaging hole 601, so the pile can be stably fixed with the help of a second fixing pin 12.

The present invention further includes a second rotation block plate 600b with a plurality of first protrusions 603 upwardly protruded from one surface in a radial shape for thereby being engaged with one surface in which the first protrusion 603 of the first rotation block plate 600a is formed.

As shown in FIG. 4, the cushioning roller member 200a is made with its inner and outer side being integrally covered with elastic rubber materials. A metallic high luminance reflection band 205 is engaged to its outer side. A reflection sheet or fluorescent paint can be covered on the outer side of the cushioning roller member 200a other than to use the high luminance reflection band 205.

The safety rail of FIG. 3 can be formed of a safety rail which has a M shape when viewing its vertical cross section after reversing 90 degrees, but another type of safety rail, safety bar or guardrail can be used for the same purpose.

As shown in FIG. 6, the first rotation block plate 600 is basically installed in the upper and lower sides of the outer surface of the rotation support pipe 20, and the first fixing groove 21 is formed in one surface of the rotation support pipe 20. The rotation support pipe 20 is inserted through the engaging hole 601 formed in the center of the first rotation block plate 600a. The second fixing groove 602 formed in a portion of the inner surface of the engaging hole 601 and the first fixing groove 21 of the rotation support pipe 20 are surface-contacted with each other, and the first fixing pin 22 is inserted into the first and second fixing grooves 21 and 602, respectively, for thereby stably fixing the first rotation block plate 600a.

As shown in FIG. 5, the second rotation block plate 600b is inserted into the pile 10 for thereby fixing the second rotation block plate 600b to the pile 20 in the same method as the first rotation block plate 600a.

As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the cushioning roller member 200a is inserted into the rotation support pipe 20 before the first rotation block plate 600a is fixed in the inner surface of the rotation support pipe 20. In addition, the rotation support pipe 20 with the cushioning roller member 200a and the first rotation block plate 600a is inserted into the pile 10 before the second rotation block plate 600b is fixed to the pile 10.

The first and second block plates 600a and 600b are installed in the pile 10, and it is preferred that the first protrusions 603 formed in the surfaces of the first and second rotation block plates 600a and 600b are engaged facing each other.

As shown in FIG. 3, a protection piece 40 is further provided, which is installed at both sides of the impact absorption facility 100 for road and is engaged to the outer side of each safety rail 300a formed at both sides of the pile 10 with the help of bolts 45 and is formed in a curved plate shape, by means of which a further cushioning effect can be obtained in front of the impact absorption facility 100 when a vehicle collides.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, in view of the pile 10 of the impact absorption facility 100 for road, the pile 10 with the cushioning roller member 200a installed at both sides of the impact absorption facility 100 for road is fixed on the ground, and the pile 10 except for the pile 10 installed at both sides of the impact absorption facility 100 for road may be installed, not being fixed on the ground.

When it is needed to change the structure of the impact absorption member 40 due to the collisions of the vehicle, the pile 10 fixed on the ground should be removed, causing a lot of inconveniences along with a cost increase and a work time increase.

So, only the pile 10 installed at both sides of the impact absorption facility 100 for road is fixed on the ground. Namely, the piles 10 except for the pile 10 fixed on the ground are not fixed to the ground, while just supporting the cushioning roller member 200a and the first and second rotation block plates 600a and 600b engaged in the rotation support pipe 20.

As shown in FIG. 8, an integral cushioning roller member 200b can be installed other than to install a plurality of cushioning roller members 200a inserted into the pile 10 for thereby enhancing the absorption when a vehicle collides, and the impacting rotation speed can be fast decreased.

As shown in FIGS. 9 to 11, a hollow space part 230 is formed in the interior of the cushioning roller member 200c, and an inlet 231 is formed on an upper surface of the cushioning roller member 200c and is sealed by means of a stopper 232, and a room temperature foam urethane 233 is inputted through the inlet 231, so that urethane foam is formed in the space part 230.

When a certain time passes after the room temperature foam urethane 233 is inputted through the inlet 231 of the cushioning roller member 200c with the space part 230, the urethane 233 inputted in the space part 230 is foamed and becomes dense in the space part 230 with the help of which construction work is easy, and the cost can be reduced.

It is preferred that the cushioning roller member 200c with the space part 230 in its interior is integrally formed of plastic molding.

As shown in FIG. 12, either the first rotation block plate 600a or the second rotation block plate 600b is equipped with a first engaging groove 604, as shown in FIG. 13, in its one surface instead of the first protrusion 603.

The first engaging groove 604 is formed in a radial concave groove shape in the surface of the first and second rotation block plates 600a and 600b. The first protrusion 603 formed in one surface of the first rotation block plate 600a rotates, being engaged with the first engaging groove 604 formed in one surface of the second rotation block plate 600b. As the protrusion 603 rotates while continuing to insert into or disengage from the first engaging groove 604, the rotation speed can be further decreased.

As shown in FIG. 14, one surface of each pile 10 surface-contacts with the safety rail 300a. A tetrahedron shaped impact absorption plate 400a of which both sides pass through for a surface contact with one surface of each pile 10 is provided.

The tetrahedron shaped impact absorption plate 400a of which both sides pass and which is installed between one surface of the pile 10 and the safety rail 300a has a certain size enough for substantially covering the width of the pile 10. The impact absorption plate 400a and the safety rail 300a are engaged in sequence to one surface of the pile 10 with the help of the bolts 45.

When engaging with the bolts 45, it is preferred to use a long side bolt 45 in order to reach from the other side of the pile 10 to another impact absorption plate 400a and a safety rail 300a.

When a vehicle collides in the direction of the pile 10 of the impact absorption facility 100 for road, it is possible to obtain further cushioning performance with the help of the impact absorption plate 400a of the pile.

As shown in FIG. 15, a rectangular pipe shaped impact absorption plate 400b can be further installed in the longitudinal direction of the safety rail 300a other than to install the tetrahedron impact absorption plate 400a of which both sides pass and has a certain length as long as the width of the pile 10 in the rear side of the safety rail 300a, so it is possible to obtain a further cushioning effect with the help of the impact absorption plate 400b when a vehicle collides with the pile and the safety rail.

As shown in FIG. 16A, a plurality of first through holes 401 are longitudinally formed on the upper and lower sides of the rectangular pipe shaped impact absorption plate 400b at regular intervals for thereby reducing the time that the rectangular pipes are crushed.

Since the first through holes 401 are formed in the upper and lower sides of the impact absorption plate 400b, it is possible to concentrate the force and pressure occurring in the course of collision into one way for thereby obtaining instant cushioning and elastic force.

As shown in FIG. 16B, forming the V shaped cut-away groove 402 at each both side of the upper and lower surfaces of the rectangular pipe shaped impact absorption plate 400b is to obtain the same principles and operation effects as the first through hole 401 is formed on the upper and lower surfaces of the impact absorption plate 400b.

As shown in FIG. 17, the rectangular pipe shaped impact absorption plate 400b includes a tetrahedron shaped rubber material cushioning plate 501a with an insertion port 502a being formed on one surface in the interior of its both ends, and a first impact member 500a with a cushioning spring 503 inserted in part into the insertion port 502a.

The first impact member 500a is installed in the interior of both sides of the impact absorption plate 400b, so a first impact cushioning operation by means of the impact absorption plate 400b and a second impact cushioning operation by means of the cushioning spring 503 of the first impact member 500a and the cushioning plate 501a made of a rubber material can be simultaneously obtained when a vehicle collides.

As shown in FIG. 18, instead of using the impact absorption plates 400a and 400b, a cushioning plate 501b made of a cylindrical rubber material with an insertion port 502b in its one surface and a second impact member 500b which has a cushioning spring 503 inserted in part into the insertion port 502b and a plate shaped washer 504 installed in a front end of the cushioning spring 503 can be used.

The cushioning spring 503 installed in the rear side of the safety rail 300a and the rubber cushioning plate 501b can help cushion the impacts in order to decrease the impacts of the safety rail 300a when a vehicle collides with the safety rain 300a.

As shown in FIGS. 19 and 20, instead of using the second impact member 500b, a third impact member 500c can be used with one surface equipped with a first protruded piece 505 formed in a vertical longitudinal direction in a curved shape, with the other surface equipped with a plurality of second protruded pieces 506 protruded in upper and lower sides, with an engaging member 45 passing through one surface and the other surface.

With the above construction of the present invention, when a vehicle collides with the safety rail 300a, part of the safety rail 300a between the pile 10 and the pile 10 is pulled in the collision direction, and at this time one surface with the first protrusion piece 505 of the third impact member 500c is formed on one surface of the pile 10 in order for the safety rail 300a positioned between one pile 10 and another pile 10 to keep its original state. So, the vertical first protrusion piece 505 formed on one surface of the third impact member 500c can effectively resist the impact force which is transferred to the safety rail 300a.

In order to reduce the impact force of the safety rail 300a when a vehicle collides, the third impact member 500c has a second protrusion piece 506 in its upper and lower surfaces of the other surface, so the impact force can be reduced or released with the help of surface contact by means of the second protrusion piece 506, not by the direct contact with one surface of the safety rail 300a.

As shown in FIG. 21, an impact absorption plate 400b is installed, exposed, without installing the safety rail 300a. When the impact absorption plate 400b is fixed on one surface of the pile, an eclipse-shaped second bolt hole 511 is formed in the upper and lower surfaces, respectively, for an engagement using the bolts and nuts.

A channel-shaped engaging fixture 510 with a third bolt hole 512 in one surface is provided for fixing on one surface of the pile 10, and a fourth impact member 500d with a cushioning spring 503 is provided in the channel-shaped engaging fixture 510.

The engaging fixture 510 with the cushioning spring 503 is equipped with an impact absorption plate 400b in its interior, so the upper and lower surfaces of the engaging fixture 510 are engaged like covering the upper and lower surfaces of the impact absorption plate 400b for thereby being fixed to one surface of the pile 10.

As shown in FIGS. 22 and 23, the safety rail 300a further includes an extension piece 301 of which both ends are inwardly bent, and a shoulder part 302 is bent in one direction of the extension piece 301, and a channel-shaped insertion piece 310 is inserted into the shoulder part 302.

A safety rail 300a is engaged to one side of the pile 10 in order to minimize the pulling phenomenon in the collision direction of the safety rail 300a when a vehicle collides with the safety rail 300a for thereby obtaining a more stable engagement. The insertion piece 310 inserted into each shoulder part 302 bent by means of the extension piece 301 of the safety rail 300a is engaged to one side of the pile using the bolts 45 in order to prevent a pulling phenomenon of the safety rail 300a.

When engaging by mans of the bolts 45, the insertion piece 310 is strongly contracted with one side in a state that the insertion piece 310 accommodates/surface-contacts with the shoulder part 302 for thereby preventing a pulling phenomenon of the safety rail 300a.

As shown in FIG. 22, a tooth part 311 is formed in the ends of the upper and lower sides of the insertion piece 310, so the tooth part 311 formed in the ends of the upper and lower sides of the insertion piece 310 is strongly contacted with the shoulder part 302 of the safety rail 300a for thereby tolerating a pulling phenomenon of the safety rail 300a.

As shown in FIGS. 24 and 25, the safety rail 300a further includes an extension piece 301 of which both ends are inwardly bent, and a plate shaped reinforcing plate 320 surface-contacts with a back side of the extension piece 301 formed in the upper and lower sides and is engaged by means of bolts and nuts.

The impact absorption plate 400a is surface-contacted with a back side of the safety rail 300a equipped with the reinforcing plate 320. It is engaged to the pile 10 using the bolts 45. So, when a vehicle collides with the safety rail 300a equipped with the reinforcing plate 320, the safety rail 300a does not pull back in the left and right directions.

As shown in FIG. 25, the impact absorption plate 400a can be installed between the pile 10 and the safety rail 300a, but the safety rail 300a reinforced in such a manner that the reinforcing plate 320 is engaged to both sides of the pile 100 can be installed without using the impact absorption plate 400a.

As shown in FIGS. 26 and 27, a curved support part 403 is engaged by the bolts to one side of the pole 10 other than to engage the safety rail 300a, and an elastic member 400c is provided, in which a surface contact part 404 is horizontally extended in both the directions of the support part 403. A plate shaped tension member 300b is engaged with the surface contact part 404 of the elastic member 400c and is arranged in the direction of the pile 10 of both side and in the longitudinal direction of the pile 10, respectively.

The impact force of the vehicle that is not substantially absorbed by means of the cushioning roller member 200a of the impact absorption facility 100 for road is further absorbed by means of the tension member 300b and the elastic member 400c and is offset. The impact of the vehicle first absorbed by means of a collision and transformation of the tension member 300b is naturally transferred to the tension member 300b with respect to the elastic member 400c, so a tensional transformation occurs. At the same time, the surface contact part 404 of the elastic member 400c is quickly bent and recovered along with the tension member 300b for thereby efficiently absorbing and offsetting the impact of the vehicle.

The impact of the vehicle transferred due to the collision with the impact absorption facility 100 for road according to the present invention is naturally absorbed by means of the collision transformation of the cushioning roller member 200a. The impact is further absorbed by means of the tension member 300b, which is tension-transformed, and the elastic member 400c, which is elastically transformed, along with the cushioning roller member 200a, from which it is possible to substantially absorb the impacts occurring due to the collision of the vehicle, so that the vehicle can be more effectively protected, and the vehicle can be prevented from escaping to the outside of the road.

As shown in FIGS. 28 and 29A, a hardening agent is added to a binder which is selected from a liquid epoxy or a liquid acryl and is added to the surface of the cushioning roller member 200a. The binder and the hardening agent are mixed at the ratios of 900:0.8˜1.2 weight % and are coated at room temperature, so a coating layer 210a with 1 mm to 5 mm thick is formed on the surface of the cushioning roller member 200a.

The coating layer 210a is directed to preventing the damages due to a corrosion of the cushioning roller member 200a from sunshine and aging, and it is possible to prevent alien substances from being stuck on the surfaces of the cushioning roller member 200a.

The binder used in the coating layer 210a can be one conventionally used in the industry, but is preferably selected from the group comprising epoxy, unsaturated polyester and acryl.

In the case of hardening agent, the hardening agent is mixed at the ratios of 900:0.8˜1.2 weight %. When the ratio exceeds 1.2 weight %, the strength might be decreased due to faster hardening, and when the ratio is lower than 0.8 weight %, the hardening might be slowed, which were shown as a result of the experiments.

As shown in FIG. 29B, a light emitting paint is covered on the surface of the coating layer 210a within 2˜3 seconds for thereby forming a light emitting coating layer 220a with 0.5 mm to 0.7 mm thick, and a protective layer 220b with 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm thick is formed by covering epoxy paint on the surface of the light emitting coating layer 220a.

The light emitting coating can be classified into a phosphorus coating which emits light when light is exposed to the material, a phosphor coating which keeps a light emitting state even when light is removed, and a night coating which emits lights as the electrons of a material returns from an excited state to a bottom level state through a semi-stable state. A light emitting paint can be made by adding a heavy metal into sulfides of alkali earth metal or zinc sulfide or by adding a small amount of radium to zinc sulfide containing cupper.

A protective layer 220b with 0.5 mm to 1 mm thick is formed by inputting the light emitting coating layer 220a into epoxy paint for 2 to 3 seconds for protecting the same.

As shown in FIG. 30C, a liquid ultraviolet ray coating is coated on the surface of the light emitting coating layer 220a before the protective layer 220b is formed for thereby forming an ultraviolet ray block coating (UV coating) 220c for thereby protecting the surface of the cushioning roller member 200a as well as the coating layer 210a from corrosion or cracks.

As shown in FIG. 30D, a certain reflection material such as glass beads or glass powder is inputted into a binder in order for the coating layer 210a to emit lights at night, with the mixing ratio of the binder and the reflector being 1:0.7˜1 weight %, so a reflection coating layer 210b is formed on the surface of the cushioning roller member 200a.

With the above structures, a driver can well recognize the objects ahead with the help of the lights reflected from the cushioning roller member 200a at night as the reflectors are inputted into the binder.

As shown in FIGS. 31 and 32, a plurality of second protrusions 203 are upwards protruded in radial shapes from the upper and lower surfaces of the cushioning roller member 200a, and a first rotation block plate 600a is formed on the upper side of the pile 10, and a second rotation block plate 600b is formed on the lower side of the same.

The radial second protrusions 203 protruded from the cushioning roller member 200a are engaged with the first protrusions 603 of the first and second rotation block plates 600a and 600b, so rotation speed can be reduced when a vehicle collides.

As shown in FIG. 33, instead of installing the cushioning roller member 200a with the second protrusions 203, a plurality of second engaging grooves 204, concaved downwards, can be formed in radial shapes in the upper and lower surfaces of the cushioning roller member 200a, so the first protrusions 603 formed in one surface of the first and second rotation block plates 600a and 600b are engaged with the second engaging grooves 204 formed in the upper and lower surfaces of the cushioning roller member 200a. When the cushioning roller member 200a rotates, the first protrusions 603 are inserted into or escaped from the second engaging grooves 204 while continuously rotating, so it is possible to further decrease the rotation speed.

As shown in FIGS. 34 and 35, the cushioning roller member 200a includes a plurality of first engaging protrusions 202 protruded from the inner surface of the engaging member 201 and formed in the vertical direction of the engaging member 201, and a plurality of second engaging protrusions 23a are vertically and longitudinally protruded from the outer surface of the rotation support pipe 20. So, when a vehicle collides, the second engaging protrusions 23a formed on the outer surface of the rotation support pipe 20 and the first engaging protrusions 202 formed in the inner surface of the engaging member 201 of the cushioning roller member 200a are engaged with each other and rotate for thereby reducing the rotation speed.

As shown in FIG. 36, instead of installing the first engaging protrusions 202 of the cushioning roller member 200a, third concave engaging grooves 206 can be formed in the inner surface of the engaging member 201, so the second engaging protrusions 23a formed in the outer side of the rotation support pipe 20 are repeatedly inserted into and escaped from the third engaging grooves 206 formed in the inner surface of the engaging member 201 of the cushioning roller member 200a and rotate for thereby decreasing the rotation speed of the cushioning roller member 200a, so it is possible to obtain an impact release effect of a vehicle and make the vehicle enter the normal runway.

As shown in FIG. 37B, the second engaging protrusions 23a are installed on the outer surface of the rotation support pipe 20 in zigzag shapes at regular intervals, so the first engaging protrusion 202 or the third engaging grooves 206 formed in the inner surface of the engaging member 201 of the cushioning roller member 200a are engaged or collide with the second engaging protrusions 23a formed in zigzag shapes in the outer surface of the rotation support pipe 20. So, the cycle for blocking the rotation of the cushioning roller member 200a is shortened, and a certain difference is made in the rotation speeds between the upper and lower sides of the cushioning roller member 200a for thereby decreasing the rotation speed.

As shown in FIG. 38, a vertically and longitudinally protruded third engaging protrusion 13 is formed in an outer side of the pile 10, and a vertically and longitudinally protruded second engaging protrusion 23b is formed in an inner surface of the rotation support pipe 20. The third engaging protrusion 13 formed in the outer side of the pile collides with the second engaging protrusion 23b formed in the inner surface of the rotation support pipe 20 for thereby decreasing the rotation speed of the rotation support pipe 20.

As shown in FIGS. 39 and 40, there is shown a conventional structure in which the reinforcing pipe 240 is engaged with the engaging member 201 of the cushioning roller member 200a. A reinforcing pipe 240 is installed to enhance a rotational force of the cushioning roller member 200a by increasing the friction force with the rotation support pipe 20 or the pile 10 and to obtain a perfect formality of the engaging member 201 of the cushioning roller member 200a.

In addition, after a foam polymer is filled in the forming mold after the reinforcing pipe 240 is installed in the forming mold of the cushioning roller member when fabricating the cushioning roller member 200a for thereby forming a cushioning roller member 200a. At this time, the engaging member 201 is formed in the center of the cushioning roller member 200a with the help of the reinforcing pipe 240.

In the structure of the cushioning roller member 200a that the reinforcing pipe 240 is further formed in an outer surface of the engaging member 201, the rotation support pipe 20 or the pile 10 is inserted and installed through the inner side of the reinforcing pipe 200a, and the cushioning roller member 200a filled as a polymer is foamed with the help of sunshine is contracted or expanded, by which pores are formed, so the reinforcing pipe 201 could escape.

In the above case, when a vehicle collides, a repulsive force is formed with respect to the rotation of the cushioning roller member 200a, so the rotation speed cannot be controlled, and a driver cannot prevent accidents.

As shown in FIGS. 41 and 42, a reinforcing pipe 240 is further formed in the engaging member 201 of the cushioning roller member 200a, and a male thread 241 is formed on an outer surface of the reinforcing pipe 240, and a female thread 206 is formed on the engaging member 201 of the cushioning roller member 200a.

The reinforcing pipe 240 with the male thread 241 in its outer surface is engaged with the engaging member 201 of the cushioning roller member 200a with the female thread 106, so that it is possible to prevent escape with the help of stronger contacting force and engaging force even when the foamed polymer is contracted or expanded.

As shown in FIG. 43, when the female thread 206 formed in the engaging member 201 of the cushioning roller member 200a is formed by inputting foam polymer after the reinforcing pipe 240 with the male thread 241 is installed before the foam polymer is inputted into the forming mold of the cushioning roller member 200a, the female thread 206 is formed in the inner surface of the engaging member 201 by means of the male thread 241 of the reinforcing pipe 241, and the outer surface of the reinforcing pipe 240 is engaged with the inner surface of the engaging member 201 through the female and male threads 206 and 241, whereby it is possible to manufacture a cushioning roller member 200a with a strong engagement force.

The method for manufacturing the cushioning roller member 200a includes a step for installing a reinforcing pipe 240 with a male thread 241 in a forming mold of the cushioning roller member 200a, a step for inputting a foam polymer after the reinforcing pipe 240 is installed, and a step for foaming and forming the foam polymer for thereby manufacturing the cushioning roller member 200a.

As shown in FIG. 44, a second through hole 243 is further formed on an outer surface of the reinforcing pipe 240, so a stronger and more reliable contacting force with the inner surface of the engaging member 201 can be obtained for thereby preventing the escape of the reinforcing pipe 240.

As shown in FIG. 45, the threads 242 is formed in the upper and lower inner surfaces of the reinforcing pipe 240 and are engaged with the engaging member 201 of the cushioning roller member 200a, and the threads 253 are formed on the upper and lower surfaces of the cushioning roller member 200a and are engaged with the threads formed in the inner surface of the reinforcing pipe 240, so that the reinforcing cap 250 with the reinforcing shoulder 251 having a through hole 252 is formed.

In the above structure, the reinforcing cap 250 is engaged to the reinforcing pipe 240, so it is possible to substantially prevent the escape of the reinforcing pipe 240.

As shown in FIG. 46, a radial shaped third protrusion 254 is formed on an upper surface of the reinforcing cap 250, so the first rotation block plate 600a installed in the upper side of the pipe 10 and the second rotation block plate 600b installed in the lower side of the pile 10 make it possible to decrease the rotation speed of the cushioning roller member 200a.

As shown in FIG. 47, instead of installing the reinforcing pipe 240 of the cushioning roller member 200a, the threads (1) are formed on the upper and lower sides of the inner surface of the cushioning roller member 200a, so that the reinforcing cap 250 is engaged with the help of the threads (1) formed in the inner surface of the engaging member 201, while maintaining a pipe shape of the engaging member 201 as well as increasing the friction force of the pile 10 or the rotation support plate 20 for thereby enhancing the rotational force.

As shown in FIGS. 48 and 49, a cushioning roller member 200c is configured in such a manner that a space part 230 is formed in the interior of the cushioning roller member 200c. An inlet port 231 stopped by the stopper 232 is formed on an upper side of the cushioning roller member 200c.

A female thread 206 is formed in the engaging member 201 of the cushioning roller member 200c, and a reinforcing pipe 240 with a male thread 241 is formed in an outer surface and is engaged with the female thread 206 formed in the engaging member 201, so that the rotation force of the cushioning roller member 200c is enhanced, and the transformation of the engaging member 201 is prevented when a vehicle collides.

As shown in FIG. 50, in the bubble type cushioning roller member 200c, the threads (1) are formed in the upper and lower sides of the inner surface of the cushioning roller member 200c, and the reinforcing cap 250 is engaged with the help of the threads (1) of the engaging member 201, so the transformation of the engaging member 201 can be prevented, and the rotational force with respect to the pile 10 or the rotation support pipe 20 can be enhanced.

As shown in FIGS. 51 and 52, a male engaging member 209 is formed in a lower surface of the cushioning roller member 200a, and a female engaging member 208 is formed in an upper surface of another cushioning roller member 200a. When it is inserted into the pipe 10 or the rotation support pipe 20, a much stronger can be obtained with the help of the engagement between the female and male engaging members 208 and 209 of each cushioning roller member 200a, and since it rotates when a vehicle collides, more reliable impact releasing effect can be obtained.

As shown in FIG. 53, a plurality of protrusions 209a are formed in radial shape from an outer surface of the cushioning roller member 200a. When the cushioning roller member 200a with a plurality of protrusions 209a is installed in a road, another cushioning roller member 200a is installed in the pile 10 with the cushioning roller member 200a, so the pile 10 with the cushioning roller member 200a is installed in one pair in the road, and the cushioning roller members 200a are surface-contacted with each other.

With the toothed structure formed as the protrusions 209 are engaged, the rotation force can be reduced with the help of the protrusions 209a when a vehicle collides, so an impact release effect can be obtained.

As shown in FIG. 54, when the pile 10 is fixed on the ground, a base plate 14 is installed in a lower side of the pile, and the lower side of the pile 10 is fixed at the center of the base plate 14, and a plurality of reinforcing ribs 15 are installed on the outer surface of the pile 10 at regular intervals in order for the lower outer surface of the pile 10 and one surface of the base plate 14 to be related with each other.

The base plate 14 fixed by the pile 10 is installed on the ground and is fixed by the anchor bolt 16 along the edges of the base plate 14.

As shown in FIGS. 55 to 59, instead of fixing the pile 10 on the ground, the pile 10 can be fixed by installing a plurality of concrete blocks 700 in the lower side of the impact absorption facility 100 for road. When the concrete blocks 700 are connected, a wire rope 702 is connected through an engaging hole 701 passing through the lower side of the concrete block 700, and the end of the wire rope 702 is fixed in the eye bolt 703, and the washer 704 and the nut 705 are engaged to the eye bolt 703 for thereby closely contacting the concrete blocks 700.

The concrete blocks 700 can operate as a median strip of roads, and the impact absorption facility 100 is installed on the upper side of the concrete blocks 700.

As shown in FIGS. 58 and 59, when the concrete blocks 700 are installed, a wire rope 702 is connected through an engaging hole 701 passing through the lower side of the concrete block 700, and an end of the wire rope 702 is fixed to the eye bolt 703, and the washer 704 and the nut 705 are engaged to the eye bolt for thereby closely contacting the concrete blocks 700.

The washer 704 is configured not to pass through the engaging hole 701. The nut 705 is engaged to the eye bolt 703 fixed by the wire rope 702, so a strong contacting force can be obtained between the concrete blocks 700, and the escapes of the concrete blocks 700 can be prevented when a vehicle collides.

As shown in FIG. 59, a hook groove 706 is longitudinally formed in the center of the lower side of the concrete block 700. When inserted into the hook groove 706, one pair is provided so that the escape prevention fixing pieces 710 are opposite to each other with its cross section being formed in an L shape for thereby more reliably preventing the escapes of the concrete blocks 700. As the escape prevention fixing pieces 710 are symmetrically installed by one pair, it is possible to adjust the width of the hook groove 706 of the concrete blocks 700 and the width of a pair of the escape prevention fixing pieces 710 being opposite depending on the line shape of the road.

When the width of the hook groove 706 is wide, the outer surfaces of a pair of the escape prevention fixing pieces 710 surface-contact by spacing the escape prevention fixing pieces 710, so the width of the escape prevention fixing pieces 710 can be adjusted depending on the width of the hook groove 706 for thereby obtaining a stable and reliable engagement of the concrete blocks with respect to the ground while preventing an accident with the help of resisting force generated in the concrete blocks 700 when a vehicle collides.

As shown in FIG. 60, when the concrete blocks 700 are installed on the ground, prefabricated concrete blocks 700 can be installed, but the concrete blocks can be manufactured at site, and the frames 720 for concrete blocks are installed on the road with certain lengths, and the concrete 721 is cast into the interior of the frames 720, and the frames 720 are removed after a certain curing period pass for thereby manufacturing the concrete blocks 700 at site.

Here, the frames 720 for concrete blocks are longitudinally prepared on the ground of the road, namely, an integral frame 720 with a size corresponding to the size when a plurality of concrete blocks 700 are connected in series is installed on the road, and the concrete 721 is cast into the interior of the frame 720 for thereby manufacturing a lengthy concrete block.

As shown in FIG. 61, a LED solar cell 17 automatically controlled is installed on the upper surface of the frame 720. In addition, there is provided a net shaped cover part 18 which covers the LED solar cell and fixed on an outer side of the pile 10.

As shown in FIG. 62, the first and second rotation plates 600a and 600b and the cushioning roller member 200a are installed in the pile 10 on the road, and a pair of opposite piles 10 equipped with the first and second rotation block plates 600a and 600b and the cushioning roller member 200a are in series installed at the rear side of the installed piles 10, and rectangular pipe shaped impact absorption plates 400b are integrally installed in the outer surface of the upper and lower sides of the pile 10 and are connected with each other.

As shown in FIGS. 63 and 64, the second rotation block plate 600b is installed in the lower side of the pile 10, and the rotation support pipe 20 equipped with the cushioning roller member 200a having the second protrusion 203 or the second engaging groove 204b is inserted in the upper and lower sides of the pile 10, so it can be installed as a safety facility in a leisure resort such as an ice skate site, a ski resort, etc. for thereby reducing the damages of persons.

As shown in FIGS. 65 and 66, a sun visor net 30a is installed in each pile positioned at both sides of the impact absorption facility 100 while connecting their top ends, and the clamps 19 with vertical cross sections are engaged to the upper sides of the piles 10 using the bolts 45 when installing the safety rail 300a and the impact absorption plate 400a, and the sun visor pile 31 is fixed on the upper surface of the clamp 19, and the sun visor net 30a is installed in one side of the sun visor pipe 31. So, the sun visor net 30a connecting the piles of both sides of the impact absorption facility 100 can be finished.

The impact absorption facility 100 for road with the sun visor net 30a can be used as a median strip of the road.

As shown in FIG. 67, instead of the sun visor net 30a, the punched sun visor plates 30b can be installed in every pile of the impact absorption facility for road.

As shown in FIG. 68, the safety rail 300a is installed in the upper and lower sides of the pile 10, and the safety rail is further installed between the cushioning roller members 200a for thereby reliably preventing the impacts when a vehicle collides. As a result, it is possible to minimize the damages of the vehicle and the passenger by preventing the escapes of the elements belonging to the impact absorption facility 100 for roads.
