Abstract
A coded marker support and a device for positioning of coded markers comprising a marking support (43), which is comprised of a plate (5) on which a plurality of aligned identification elements (1) may be locked. In an alternate embodiment, the plate (5 ) is provided with clamping members (10) allowing to fix the marking support (43) to a cable, the plate (5) being substantially parallel to the cable.
Claims24
A marker support (40, 41, 42, 43) for supporting a marker comprising an oblong plate (5) having at least two contiguously aligned recesses (6) having the shape of frustums of pyramids, wherein bases of the frustums of pyramids form a top plane of the oblong plate (5) and wherein a length of a side of the bases is equal to a width of the oblong plate (5), and wherein a locking member (7) formed by a conical hole is provided in a center of a bottom of each of the recesses (6);
- at least two aligned identification elements (1), wherein each of the identification elements has a shape of a frustum of a pyramid matching a shape of each of the recesses (6) and includes a locking projection (3) attached to a face disposed opposite to a base of each of the identification elements, wherein each of the identification elements is fixed to the oblong plate (5) by means of the locking projection (3) formed by a spheroidal protrusion, matching the respective locking member (7) of the oblong plate (5) and wherein the base of each of the identification elements is inscribed with a distinctive sign.
A device for preparing a positioning of coded markers comprising
- a comb having a rectangular back (20), wherein at least one row (21) of parallel teeth (22) extends along one of two longer sides of the rectangular back (20), and wherein the parallel teeth (22) are spaced from each other relative to their centers by a step P, where each tooth (22) forms an elongated support bar which comprises at least two sequential recesses each having a locking member (7) formed by a hole furnished in a bottom of each of the recesses, wherein the locking members (7) of teeth (22) are disposed aligned along lines disposed perpendicular to a longer side of the rectangular back (20), and
- a plurality of bands (24) connected to the rectangular back (20) at a side opposite to the parallel teeth (22), wherein each band (24) is formed by a plurality of identification elements (1), connected to each other and each including a spheroidal protrusion (3), matching the locking member (7) of a tooth (22), wherein spheroidal protrusions (3) of one band (24) are separated and spaced by a step P and wherein suitably selected bands (24) placed and fixed on rows (21) form a plurality of markers.
