A structural barrier and energy absorbing device comprises a plurality of structural elements. The structural element alone or in a plurality may serve as a traversal impediment or energy absorbing device, such as a pedestrian barrier, vehicular barrier, anti-tank obstacle, ballistic barrier, or the like. The structural element may be a tetrapod such that it comprises an element body having four extension portions that extend outwardly from the interior center to a distal end, such that the structural element maintains an identical orientation and a low center of gravity in each of four resting positions. The structural element may be a solid-state structural element comprised of a particular material or a portable and collapsible structural element wherein the element body comprises an outer skin defining an interior void space, such that during set-up or installation the interior void space may be filled with a filler substance onsite.

A modular fence unit integrates a base, a pair of end posts extending through slots formed in the base, and a fence panel design resting above the base between the pair of end posts. A tongue and groove combination provides the joint used to situate the fence panel design between the posts. The joint enables the fence panels to be releasably attachable to the end posts. The fence unit can incorporate a single panel, multiple vertically-oriented panels arranged horizontally, or multiple horizontally-oriented panels arranged vertically. The base includes an interior compartment space capable of holding fluid, such as liquid, to enable the base to serve as stabilizing ballast.

A stanchion includes a circular base, a transparent tube coupled to the circular base, a first circuit board with a plurality of controllable light emitting diodes (LEDs) mounted thereon, and a second circuit board including electronics for controlling the LEDs. The LEDs provide a plurality of colors that can be controlled via a remote control device or acoustically.

A barrier system includes a handrail, and a connector to couple the handrail to a post extension that extends upward from a floor. The handrail has and end with a width measured in a direction transverse to an elongate length of the handrail. The connector includes a socket to hold the end of the handrail. The socket is defined by an elongate channel that extends in a direction substantially parallel to the post extension when the connector is attached to the post extension. The channel has a length that is greater than the width of the end of the handrail.

Modular multipurpose, rapidly deployable, barriers that couple together into barrier walls and barrier blocks. The barrier walls are watertight, self-filling, and capable of being coupled horizontally without vertically lifting the barriers. The barriers are capable of being vertically and horizontally stacked in all directions while also allowing the stacked blocks to be offset and reinforced with poles, ropes and cables that thread through the stack vertically to support fencing and other materials. Horizontally, the barriers also permit poles, ropes and cables to be thread through the barriers greatly increasing their strength. The modular barriers are also stackable to be efficiently stored within truck and shipping container. The barriers may also be bullet proof.

A stanchion includes a circular base, a transparent tube coupled to the circular base, a first circuit board with a plurality of controllable light emitting diodes (LEDs) mounted thereon, and a second circuit board including electronics for controlling the LEDs. The LEDs provide a plurality of colors that can be controlled via a remote control device or acoustically.

A modular fence assembly, including multiple fence modules each comprising: a barrier comprising a pair of substantially parallel end posts, and a base configured to stabilize the respective fence module on a surface. The modular fence assembly further includes multiple connectors each configured to connect two adjacent fence modules of the multiple fence modules, wherein: each of the multiple connectors is configured as a double hinge having a pair of parallel internal channels, and each of the internal channels is configured to embrace an end post of one of the two adjacent fence modules. The multiple fence modules and the multiple connectors are configured to be assembled into a fence.

Generally, a stanchion including a base configured to fasten to a support surface to dispose an elongate member in an upright condition. Specifically, a plurality of stanchions configured for interconnection by barrier elements to cordon off an area with a barrier wall.

Arrangement of at least one primary limiting element and at least one secondary limiting element for a sluice system, in particular in the access area of an event site, where the primary limiting element includes a dimensionally stable primary guide element extending longitudinally in the access direction and/or the secondary limiting element includes a dimensionally stable secondary guide element extending longitudinally in the access direction, where at least the primary limiting element is reversibly transferable between an operating state and a stowed state, where in the operating state a passage extending in the access direction is formed between the primary limiting element and the secondary limiting element, and where for widening the passage in the stowed state at least the primary limiting element, in particular the entire primary limiting element, is stowed.

The present invention relates to a roadblock for temporary installation to block traffic and/or as a security precaution, including: an elongated casing with two opposing longitudinal side walls and an, the two side walls joining, upper wall; and at least one casing support structure located in the elongate casing and connecting to both the side walls; supports for resting on the ground/surface connected to the lower side of the elongate casing and/or the lower side of the casing support structure, and plural stabilisation arms protruding from one of the longitudinal side walls.
