Disclosed is a shock-absorbing barrier. According to the present invention, the shock-absorbing barrier is configured wherein guardrails onto which shock-absorbing members like waste tires or waste rubber are mounted are attached to barrier walls and pillar bodies made by attaching pillar tubes to pillars are connectedly erected by means of the barrier walls on which the guardrails are mounted, so that if an external collision occurs, rotary rods are changed to a shape of a cone around the axis of the pillar tube rail to extend a shock-absorbing section, and the external collision is distributed by the compression and tension of both side rails to decrease the deviation displacement of the barrier wall boundary and to allow the pressure of the collision portion to be distributedly absorbed to the parts connected by the guardrails.

A post assembly for absorbing impact from a vehicle including a footing, an upright post and a hinge region to allow the post to plastically deform relative to the footing. The post is preferably fixed to a lever arm that is connected to the footing via the hinge region, the lever arm and post pivoting away from the footing under load, The lever arm, footing and hinge region are preferably formed from a common base plate. The invention also relates to barrier system that includes multiple post assemblies, and a barrier supported between respective posts of the assemblies.

A modular system for separating traffic into discrete zones includes a plurality of rail segments pivotally secured to rail mounts. The mounts are configured for rapid and straightforward coupling of rail segments thereto. Moreover, the mounts may be quickly installed and de-installed from a road surface. The overall system therefore provides a physical barrier system that is easily installed and easily modifiable into desired arrangements. Its modular construction of any number of a plurality of distinct rail segments further facilitates customized channelizing design. The modular system includes flexible divider members connectable to the mounts through angled bracket flanges to define visible and aesthetically pleasing physical separation of the traffic into discrete zones.

The present disclosure relates to systems and methods involving collapsible guardrails. An example system includes a top rail, a mid rail, an enclosure, and at least two posts. Each post includes an upper primary member, a lower primary member, an upper secondary member, and a lower secondary member. The upper primary member and the lower primary member are slidably coupled to at least one slot in the mid rail. The upper secondary member is rotatably coupled to the upper primary member and the lower secondary member is rotatably coupled to the lower primary member. The upper primary member is further coupled to the top rail and the lower primary member is coupled to the enclosure.

Disclosed is a barrier, comprising: a plurality of posts; a first beam and a second beam arranged in an end-on relation to one another and extending between respective posts of the plurality of posts, wherein the first beam and second beam are longitudinally displaceable with respect to one another; and, an articulating link connecting the first beam and the second beam, wherein the articulating link translates a longitudinal movement of the first beam in a first direction to a longitudinal movement of the second beam in a second direction.

Disclosed is a shock absorber for buffering the barrier wall of a road. According to the present invention, a horizontal inner pipe bumper is inserted into a pedestal attached to a boundary of a barrier wall and joined to the support pillar. The buffer rail transversely connected to the protruding portion of the buffer pad on the front surface of the pedestal constitutes the buffer portion of the collision portion barrier wall, and when the buffer pad adhered to the inner pipe bumper is displaced upright, tension of the elastic rail connecting the buffer pad and the elastic rail block is generated, and the guard rail of the pillar is coupled to the barrier bridging body by a connecting member.
