[0027] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0028] Example 1: Please refer to Figures 1-8The existing gear indicator uses a solar panel on it for photoelectric conversion when in use. However, the gear indicator is usually used outdoors, and it is inconvenient to shield and protect the solar panel when the weather is abnormal, such as hail. Therefore, the solar panel is easily damaged when impacted by hail. In order to solve this technical problem, the present embodiment discloses the following technical content: a corrosion-resistant solar gear indicator, which comprises a supporting seat 1 and a clamping column 2 fixed on the middle part of the upper end of the supporting seat 1. An indicator disc 3 is installed on the middle part of the clamping column 2, and a warning light 4 is connected to the side of the indicator disc 3. A protective cover 5 is fixed on the upper end of the warning light 4. A bearing seat 6 is fixed on the upper end of the clamping column 2, and a photovoltaic panel 7 is embedded on the bearing seat 6. The photovoltaic panel 7 is used for photoelectric conversion to realize power storage. A rotatable protective component 8 is installed on the bearing seat 6. The protective component 8 is used for shielding and protecting the photovoltaic panel 7 on the bearing seat 6. Limiting grooves 9 are formed on the bearing seat 6 and the protective component 8, and automatic cleaning components 10 are installed on the limiting grooves 9. The automatic cleaning components 10 are used for cleaning the attachments on the surface of the photovoltaic panel 7. The protective component 8 comprises a shielding side plate 801, which is installed on the bearing seat 6 through a rotating shaft. A transmission gear 802 is fixed on the rotating shaft of the shielding side plate 801. A guide tooth plate 803 is arranged below the transmission gear 802. The guide tooth plate 803 is fixed on the telescopic end of a double-head electric telescopic rod 804. The fixed end of the double-head electric telescopic rod 804 is fixed on the side of the bearing seat 6. A light guide lens 805 is embedded on the side of the shielding side plate 801 facing the photovoltaic panel 7. The longitudinal section of the shielding side plate 801 is arranged in an "L" shape structure, and the shielding side plate 801 is symmetrically arranged about the transverse central axis of the bearing seat 6. The shielding side plate 801 can rotate around the rotating shaft. The guide tooth plate 803 and the transmission gear 802 on the rotating shaft of the shielding side plate 801 are in meshing connection. The light guide lens 805 embedded on the shielding side plate 801 is flush with the surface of the shielding side plate 801. The automatic cleaning component 10 comprises a heat absorbing plate 101, and the surface of the heat absorbing plate 101 is recessed inward to form an inner recess 102. A power air bag 103 is fixed on the side of the heat absorbing plate 101. The power air bag 103 is filled with a heat-expanding gas.
[0029] When in use, the color of the warning light 4 changes, thereby realizing the indication of the railway terminal gear. During the day, the double-headed electric telescopic rod 804 is used to control the guide tooth plate 803 to move toward the inner side of the bearing seat 6. After the guide tooth plate 803 moves, the meshing transmission gear 802 can drive the shielding side plate 801 to rotate. The rotation of the shielding side plate 801 removes the obstruction to the photovoltaic panel 7, so that the photovoltaic panel 7 can normally receive sunlight to store electrical energy. At the same time, after the shielding side plate 801 is rotated and opened, the light guide lens 805 thereon reflects the surrounding light, so that the surrounding light can be guided and reflected to the surface of the photovoltaic panel 7. At the same time, during the day, the heat absorbing plate 101 can absorb external heat. The absorbed heat can be transferred to the power airbag 103, and the heat absorption and expansion of the gas inside the power airbag 103 can push the side cleaning substrate 104 to move. The movement of the shielding side plate 801 and the cleaning substrate 104 on the supporting seat 6 can be used to clean impurities attached to the photovoltaic panel 7 and the light guide lens 805. When the outside world is in bad weather, the double-headed electric telescopic rod 804 controls the guide gear plate 803 to reset. At this time, the shielding side plate 801 also rotates and resets. The shielding side plate 801 after rotation and reset can be used to shield and protect the photovoltaic panel 7 on the supporting seat 6. At the same time, because the surfaces of the support seat 1, the clamping column 2 and the indicator disk 3 are all provided with an anti-corrosion coating, the anti-corrosion effect of the vehicle gear indicator itself can be improved.
[0030] Example 2: The technical content disclosed in this example is a further improvement based on the above-mentioned Example 1. The following technical content is disclosed in this example: a guide groove 13 is provided on the side of the support seat 1, and a locking member 14 fixed to the ground is provided through the inside of the guide groove 13, and the locking member 14 is provided as a bolt and nut. The guide groove 13 is symmetrically arranged about the transverse central axis of the support seat 1, and the cross-section of the guide groove 13 is arranged as a waist-shaped structure. A buffer block 11 is provided on the side of the shielding side panel 801 facing away from the photovoltaic panel 7, and the buffer block 11 is interconnected with the shielding side panel 801 through an adjusting spring 12. The longitudinal section of the buffer block 11 is arranged as an isosceles triangle structure, and a plurality of adjusting springs 12 are evenly distributed on the lower end of the buffer block 11.
[0031] The locking piece 14 on the side of the support seat 1 makes it easy to fix the support seat 1 on the ground for use. At the same time, the locking piece 14 is set in the guide groove 13 on the side of the support seat 1. The waist-shaped structure of the guide groove 13 makes it easy to change the position of the locking piece 14 in the guide groove 13, thereby improving the flexibility of fixing the support seat 1 to the ground. Because a buffer block 11 is installed on the back of the shielding side panel 801, when hail falls outside, the impact force of the falling hail first contacts the buffer block 11. After the buffer block 11 is subjected to force, the adjustment spring 12 at its lower end can undergo elastic deformation, thereby playing a buffering role through the elastic deformation of the adjustment spring 12.
