Abstract
An apparatus comprising a pole having an interior; the interior comprising plural regions for electronics components, a first aperture proximate one of the regions, the regions comprising a core region, a utility region, a core region, and a sub-core region, and an individuated region access feature having a first position and a second position, wherein the electronics of a region are alternately accessible at the first position of the feature and inaccessible at the second position of the feature. Exemplary contemplated embodiments comprise alternative and alternately combinable access features such as a sliding plate, conduits which have a first position in one region of the pole and a second position in a different region of the pole, and a battery tray that maintains access to a workman as it is loaded with batteries.
Claims18
An apparatus, comprising:
- a pole having an interior;
- the interior comprising plural regions for electronics components;
- a first aperture;
- the regions comprising an antenna region, a utility region, a core region, and a sub-core region;
- and
- an individuated region access feature having a first position and a second position,
- wherein the electronics of a region are alternately accessible at the first position of the feature and inaccessible at the second position of the feature, and
- wherein the aperture is proximate the core region and the access feature comprises a plate that is alternately positionable to a first position in the utilities region and a second position in the core region of the pole, such that the electronics components of the utilities region can be accessed by a workman at the aperture to install or service the components of the utilities region when the plate is at the second position, and
- wherein the plate is configured to be lowered at the first position by a workman standing at the aperture, reaching into the core region of the pole by grasping one of a plate handle and the plate, proximate the utilities region, and moved by the direct access range of movement of the workman, while standing at the aperture, until it is lowered to the second position, at which the plate is configured to receive a device and for the device to be installed onto the plate, and the plate being further configured to be returned to the first position by the workman standing at the aperture, reaching into the core region of the pole, by grasping a plate handle and, and moved by the direct range of movement of the workman, while standing at the aperture to be raised to the first position.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a pole having an interior;
- the interior comprising plural regions for electronics components;
- a first aperture;
- the regions comprising an antenna region, a utility region, a core region, and a sub-core region;
- and
- an individuated region access feature having a first position and a second position,
- wherein the electronics of a region are alternately accessible at the first position of the feature and inaccessible at the second position of the feature,
- wherein the access feature comprises a battery support tray in the sub-core region configured to maintain direct access, proximate the core region, to a workman standing at the aperture outside the pole and reaching into the core region to the batteries, as they are installed to the sub-core region by the workman standing at the aperture by the tray being configured to receive layers of batteries having a layer height and layer weight and the battery tray being configured to vertical deflection within the interior of the pole according to support by comprising at least one spring supporting the tray that provides a predetermined amount of continuous distance deflection resistance, such that, per layer of batteries provided to the tray by the workman adding the batteries through the aperture, and receiving the layer weight to the tray, the battery tray descends within the sub-core region, from the first position, proximate the core region, a height approximately equal to the layer height of the layer, to the second position, and
- the tray further being configured to automatically ascend within the sub-core region from the second position to the first position, a height approximately equal to the layer height of the layer, as the layer weight is removed, from the tray per layer of batteries removed from the tray by the workman standing at the aperture and reaching into the core region, through the same aperture in the core region.
