Definitions
- This invention relates to a post for a queue management or customer guidance system.
- One such retractable webbing barrier queue management system comprises a plurality of upstanding posts with heavy bases or pedestals (normally in the form of heavy thick circular disks) which support several lengths of webbing.
- a cassette is located which accommodates at least two metres of heavy duty webbing which can be withdrawn from the cassette against the bias of a spring, there being an end fitting on the free end of the webbing designed for engagement with a mating fitting on an adjacent post.
- the present invention seeks to overcome the above disadvantages with known queue management systems and, in particular, to provide a much more portable and easily manageable post for such systems.
- a post for a queue management system having an upright portion adapted to support at least one barrier device and having at its bottom end a foot, and wherein the post is constructed so that the post can be stacked in a nesting arrangement with an adjacent post of similar construction.
- the foot has a recess in a circumferential portion thereof to receive a base portion of an upright portion of another post.
- a projecting hook-like tongue in the bottom of the recess, and in the said base portion, there is a groove with a profile matching that of the hook-like tongue for connection with the tongue of another post.
- the foot is formed of cast-iron base and is coated with a non-scuff textured paint, rubber or the like.
- a roller is mounted on the foot diametrically opposite the recess, the location of which roller is such that, when the post is tilted, the post or a stack of posts can be pushed or pulled around on the roller.
- the foot may be formed from tubular stock and be integral with the upright portion.
- the foot is preferably generally N-shaped in plan, and has a further limb upstanding from that end of one of its arms which is not connected to the other arm of the V, said upstanding limb being inclined at a first acute angle to the horizontal (and to the arm from which it extends) and extending inwardly towards a line bisecting the angle at the apex of the N, and at a second acute angle to said arm when viewed in plan.
- the angle at the apex of the N is about 60° and the first acute angle is about 50° and the second acute angle is about 35°.
- the upright portion of the post extends vertically from that end of the upstanding limb not connected to the arm of the N, and forms an obtuse angle therewith.
- the obtuse angle is about 120°.
- At least that portion thereof which is designed to sit on a support surface should be sufficiently heavy to prevent the post from toppling over. If it is formed of tubular stock, it may be filled with concrete, sand or some other suitably heavy material.
- this alternative design of post is fitted with a pair of wheels so as to facilitate the movement of the posts from location to location, and in particular to enable them to be nested together.
- one wheel is located on the free end of the other of the arms of the N, with its axis of rotation extending at right angles to the line bisecting the apex of the V, and the other wheel is mounted on the joint between the said one arm of the N and the upstanding limb, so that its axis of rotation is co-axial with that of the said one wheel.
- the foot may be formed separately, e.g. of cast iron, and then attached to a lower end of the upright portion.
- the upright portion of the post preferably has a lower end part inclined to the upright portion at an angle of about 140°, and the bottom end thereof is secured to the foot at the apex of the V, which is preferably truncated.
- the post is fitted with one or more wheels, not at the free ends of the arms of the N but at the apex thereof.
- the apex is preferably formed by a short cross member from which each arm of the V extends at an angle of about 30°, and the wheel(s) is/are mounted on the cross member.
- the posts are nested with an adjacent post by a foot of one post at least partly overlying a foot of the adjacent post.
- the wheel(s) only contact the ground when the upright portion of the post is tilted forwardly through about 20°-40°.
- this upright portion of each post is formed on front and rear faces thereof with co-operating male and female means for locking nested posts together in such a manner as to allow limited relative vertical movement between adjacent nested posts, to permit forward tilting of a set of nested posts, for transport purposes.
- the upright portion of the post is formed to receive the at least one barrier device.
- it may be hollow so as to accept a cassette containing a spring loaded length of webbing which can be pulled out from the cassette against the load of the spring for connection to an anchorage point.
- a cassette is sold by us and forms part of our TENSABARRIER queue management system.
- a plurality of posts may be marketed as a set, either fitted with cassettes containing pull-out webbing, or in conjunction with complimentary barrier devices, and means may be sold therewith to wrap around a plurality of nested posts to hold them together. Even when so held together, the set of posts may still be moved relatively easily from one location to another, due to the rollers or wheels on the posts.
- Said means may comprise one or more lengths of wrap around strapping, webbing or the like, for wrapping at least once around the upright portions of the nested posts.

- FIGURE 11 is a plan view of the post of Figure 10;
- FIGURE 12 is a partly sectional side elevation of the post of Figure 10 with the top of an upright portion broken away;
- FIGURE 13 is a side elevation showing several of the posts of Figures 10-12 stacked together and tilted for transporting the posts from one location to another.
- a post for a queue management system is shown generally at 1, the post comprising an upright portion 3 having at its bottom end a foot 5, and the post is constructed so that the post can be stacked in a nesting arrangement with adjacent posts of similar construction as shown in Figure 2.
- each of the posts is formed from tubular stock, preferably of circular cross-section, which is bent into the configuration shown from a single length of stock.
- the foot 5 is generally N-shaped in plan having a first arm 7 and a second arm 9 meeting at an apex 11 of the N.
- That end of the second arm 9 not connected to the arm 7 has an upstanding limb 13 connected thereto, the limb 13 extending upwardly and inwardly away from the arm 9 towards a line 15 bisecting the apex 11 of the N.
- the arm 13 subtends an angle in the range of 30° to 40° to the arm 9 when viewed in plan, preferably an angle of about 35°, and subtending an angle in the range of 45° to 55° and preferably of about 50° to the horizontal.
- the length of the limb 13 is such that the junction 17 between the arm 13 and the upright portion 3 of the post is located above the line 15 at such a location along the line 15 as to provide maximum stability for the post.
- the angle at the apex 11 of the N is in the range of 50° to 70°, preferably about 60° and the upright portion 3 of the post forms an obtuse angle with the limb 13 of about 120°.
- the construction of the foot 5 of the post and the arrangement of the limb 13 relative to the foot are such that several such posts can be nested together to form a compact stack.
- the posts are designed to support barrier devices to form a queue management system, they must be stable and hence the foot 5 of the post must be sufficiently heavy to keep the post upright when the upper end portions of the upright portions 3 of the post are subjected to forces tending to topple over the posts.
- the foot 5 must be made of sufficiently heavy material or alternatively if it is formed of hollow tubular material should be filled with a sufficiently dense material such as sand, concrete or the like, to provide the necessary stability. This of course means that each post is fairly heavy: preferably, therefore, each post is fitted with a pair of wheels 19.
- one of the wheels 19 is welded or otherwise secured to the free end of the first arm 7 of the foot so that the rotational axis of the wheel 19 extends normal to the line 15 whereas the other wheel 19 is welded or otherwise secured to the foot at the junction between the other arm 9 and the limb 13 so that its rotational axis is co-axial with that of the first wheel 19.
- the wheels 19 may be of any proprietary construction such as those now commonly fitted to suitcases or the like.
- the upright portion 3 of the post 1 is formed to receive at least one barrier device.
- the tubular post end is formed with two slots 21 therein extending parallel to the longitudinal axis of the post and diametrically opposed to each other to accommodate a cassette 23 containing a coiled length of webbing 25 on a spool and withdrawable from the cassette under the control of a spring such as a TENSATOR (registered trade mark) spring.
- the cassettes are a proprietary item and accommodate at least 2 metres of webbing, one end of which is connected to the spool and the other end of which has a special fitting or clip 27 thereon.
- the clip 27 has a special shaped groove 29 therein adapted to form a quick connect coupling with an appropriate fitting on the cassette 23 (not shown) but extending outwardly therefrom diametrically opposite the webbing 25 and adapted to project through the second slot 21 (which is not shown) in the top end of the upright portion 3 of the post 1.
- Such a fitting is shown schematically at 31 in Figure 1, this fitting being located on an outer face of the upright portion 3 of the post 1 midway between the two diametrically opposed slots 21.
- barrier device instead of fitting a cassette incorporating a length of webbing 25 to the post 1, several alternative types of barrier device may be provided.
- upper end portions of the upright portion 3 of the post 1 may be fitted with hooks, eyes, grooves or the like, to which lengths of chain or rope may be connected or, alternatively, to which solid barrier bars or beams may be connected.
- the posts may be provided some way from the top end thereof with further fittings to enable one or more additional barriers to be fitted to the posts.
- the presence of the wheels 19 on the posts facilitates moving them between positions of use and their nested storage positions.
- a plurality of posts according to the present invention may be marketed as a set and, when nested together, it may be desirable to hold the posts in this nested relationship by wrapping suitable means around the upright portion 3 of the posts.
- the webbing 25 may be used for this purpose but, alternatively, separate means such as a strap or the like could be provided.
- the post has a N-shaped foot 35 provided with two wheels 19 but, at the apex of the V- shaped foot, there is an upstanding portion 37 which extends inwardly and upwardly and overlies a line bisecting the apex of the N, that end of the upright portion 37 not connected to the foot being connected to the upright portion 3 of the post.
- FIGs 5a-5f a modified version of the posts shown in Figures 1-3 is illustrated.
- the preferred dimensions of these posts are shown in the drawings. It will be apparent that many alternative constructions to those shown could be provided which would still nest together.
- the foot instead of the foot being N-shaped, it could be C-shaped or U-shaped, or even A-shaped with the upright portion 3 of the post extending vertically upright from the cross-bar of the A. Such a construction might not, however, nest as compactly as the constructions shown in Figures 1 to 3, or Figures 5a-5f.
- the post has a truncated N-shaped foot 41 comprising a short cross member 43 from which two arms 45, 47 extend at angles of about 30°.
- the foot 41 is formed of a solid, heavy material, such as cast iron, and an upright portion 49 of the post is connected to an upper, central region of cross member 43 by a limb 51.
- the limb 51 is formed integral with the portion 49 and is preferably formed of tubular bar stock of circular cross section, with the limb 51 forming an angle of about 140° with the portion 49, and being straightened out, as shown at 53 prior to being connected, e.g. by welding to the foot 41.
- a wheel or roller (or more than one) 55 is mounted to the underside of the cross member 43, perhaps in a recess 57, and the construction of the posts is such that they can be nested together, as shown in Figure 8, with the foot 41 of one post partly overlying the foot 41 of an adjacent post.
- the posts are provided on their front and rear faces respectively with a male connector 59 and a female keyhole type slot 61 (see Figure 8) which interengage when two adjacent posts are nested together as shown in Figure 8, and which will allow relative vertical sliding movement between adjacent posts when a nested set are tilted forwards for transporting them as shown in Figure 8.
- the weight of the nested set is supported by all the wheels 55 of the set, as illustrated.
- a preferred construction of post has a foot in the form of a cast-iron base 61 which is generally circular and has a recess 63 formed in a circumferential portion thereof.
- the recess is sized and shaped to accept a lower end of an upright portion 65 of the post.
- This portion is generally tubular with slots 21 in the upper end portion thereof as in the previous embodiments.
- the upright portion 65 is connected to a generally cylindrical upstand 67 projecting from a central region of the base 61.
- the upstand may be integral with the base 61.
- a plurality of the posts shown in Figures 10-12 may be stacked and nested together, with a tongue 69 of a lower post engaging the inverted hook 73 of a post stacked thereon, as shown in Figure 13.
- each post is fitted with a roller 75 at a location diametrically opposed to the recess 63.
- the rollers 73 may be provided with an axle 77 which locates in suitable bearing apertures in the base 71, e.g. as shown schematically in Figure 11. Obviously, a recess is formed in the base 71 to accommodate the roller 75. Alternative roller arrangements would be possible.
- the location of the rolling surface of the roller 75 should be such that when the base 61 of the post is resting on a surface, the roller will be (largely) inoperative. However, when a post is tipped, as shown in Figure 13, so the roller will move into rolling engagement with the surface, thus allowing the post, and in particular a plurality of stacked posts as shown in Figure 13, to be moved easily across the surface. This makes a stack of otherwise very heavy posts very portable.
- the posts are used in the manner described earlier herein.
- the foot of the post at least, i.e. the base 61 and its upstand, are coated with, or may even be formed of, a non- scuff material.
- the base 61 may be of inverted saucer-like construction or solid, and instead of being integral with the base 61, the upstand 67 may be connected to it with a screw 77, all as shown in Figure 12.
