Traffic barrier and mounting assembly

1. A mounting assembly for mounting a traffic barrier to a surface, comprising:

an attachment base configured to be stationary connected with respect to the traffic barrier and adapted to be integrated into the traffic barrier; and

a ground connecting element, configured to be stationary connected with respect to a ground by means of fastening means, such as screws, pins or bolts;

wherein the attachment base and the ground connecting element are mutually coupled by coupling means configured to allow movement between the attachment base and the ground connecting element in coupled condition, and the attachment base at least partially encloses the ground connecting element.

2. The mounting assembly according to claim 1 , characterised in that the movement allowed by the coupling means is a linear movement.

3. The mounting assembly according to claim 1 , characterised in that the movement allowed by the coupling means has a direction perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the traffic barrier.

4. The mounting assembly according to claim 1 , characterised in that the coupling means comprise a protrusion and a receiving space for receiving the protrusion therein and thereby coupling the attachment base and the ground connecting element.

5. The mounting assembly according to claim 4 , characterised in that at least one of the protrusion and the receiving space is configured to at least partially plastically deform upon movement.

6. The mounting assembly according to claim 5 , characterised in that the receiving space for receiving the protrusion is a substantially longitudinal aperture with a narrowing width.

7. The mounting assembly according to claim 1 , characterised in that the attachment base and the ground connecting element are provided with cooperating abutments for limitation of the displacement of the attachment base and the ground connecting element.

8. The mounting assembly according to claim 7 , characterised in that the abutments are facing edges.

9. The mounting assembly according to claim 1 , characterised in that the attachment base is substantially an elongated channel.

10. The mounting assembly according to claim 1 , characterised in that the ground connecting element has a longitudinal central body part that is at least partially enclosed by the attachment base.

11. The mounting assembly according to claim 1 , characterised in that the ground connecting element is provided with apertures on opposite sides for cooperating with the fastening means to stationary connect the ground connecting element to the ground.

12. The mounting assembly according to claim 1 , characterised in that the attachment base is an integrated part of a traffic barrier.

13. A traffic barrier comprising a mounting assembly according to claim 1 .

14. The traffic barrier according to claim 13 , characterised in that the traffic barrier comprises plural mounting assemblies.

15. The traffic barrier according to claim 14 , characterised in that the attachment base is an integrated part of a traffic barrier and the longitudinal direction of the attachment base is perpendicular to the longitudinal direction of the traffic barrier.
