Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of traffic signal lights, in particular to a foldable temporary traffic signal light. Background Art

[0002] Traffic lights are lights that direct traffic. When temporary traffic lights are needed on some important roads, or when the main traffic lights are damaged, temporary traffic lights will be used instead. However, temporary traffic lights are usually placed on the road surface and are easily hit by passing vehicles, causing damage to the temporary traffic lights. In some sections of the road, temporary traffic lights are set up during rush hours in the morning and evening to increase safety and make traffic smoother. However, in other time periods, when there is heavy traffic on the section, temporary traffic lights are generally not needed. Temporary traffic lights are removed when they are not needed, and traffic lights are used during important periods, which causes the whole process to be repeated continuously, which is very troublesome.

[0003] A search of Chinese patent publication number CN221613401U discloses a foldable temporary traffic signal light. The patent includes a base arranged in a concave shape, a fixing cavity is opened on the inner wall of the base, an adjusting screw is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the fixing cavity, and an adjusting slide is threadedly connected to the adjusting screw. The device is provided with an adjusting screw, an adjusting slide plate, an adjusting rod and a supporting shaft. When the foldable temporary traffic signal light needs to be moved and transported, the position of the signal light body can be adjusted by rotating the adjusting screw after the signal light body is rotated and laid flat. After the damping telescopic rod drives the signal light body to retract, the signal light body can be retracted to the groove of the base, and the foldable temporary traffic signal light can be stored, thereby facilitating the transportation and movement of the foldable temporary traffic signal light and reducing the volume for easy storage. However, when the device is used in the prior art, the traffic light needs to be dismantled for transportation during the transportation process, which is time-consuming and labor-intensive. When the base drives the traffic light to move, the device will tilt due to the high center of gravity and uneven road surface, causing damage to the traffic light. Each time the traffic light is moved to an intersection, the moving component of the device needs to be locked and braked, which is inconvenient to install and use, and its practicality needs to be improved.

The folding structure is used to place the signal light body 303 parallel to the first column 203 in the folded state, which is conducive to reducing the height of the entire device, lowering the center of gravity of the mobile seat 101 when moving, and preventing the signal light body 303 from being damaged by tilting;

[0029] A locking mechanism is movably provided on the first column 203 , and the locking mechanism is used to lock the folding structure when the signal lamp body 303 is in use. A brake mechanism is installed at the bottom of the movable seat 101 .

[0030] In this embodiment, the folding structure includes a first rotating shaft 204, which is rotatably connected to one end of the first column 203 away from the supporting rotating shaft 202, and the second column 205 is rotatably connected to the first rotating shaft 204 by bolts, and the second column 205 is rotatably connected to the second rotating shaft 206, and the third column 207 is bolted to the second rotating shaft 206, and the end of the third column 207 away from the second rotating shaft 206 is connected to the mounting seat 301 by bolts, and the axes of the first rotating shaft 204 and the second rotating shaft 206 are arranged in parallel, and the axes of the first rotating shaft 204 and the second rotating shaft 206 are perpendicular to the axes of the first column 203, the second column 205 and the third column 207. The setting of the folding structure is used to make the signal light body 303 parallel to the first column 203 after folding, so as to lower the center of gravity of the whole device, make it convenient to move, and not easy to tip over during movement.

[0031] In this embodiment, the braking mechanism includes a translation frame 501, a connecting frame 503 is welded on one side of the translation frame 501, the connecting frame 503 is slidably connected to the bottom of the moving seat 101, a rack 504 is bolted to the top of the connecting frame 503, a gear 505 is meshed on the rack 504, the gear 505 is bolted to one side of the supporting shaft 202, and a friction brake pad 502 is bolted to one side of the bottom of the translation frame 501, and the friction brake pad 502 is used to lock the rotation of the wheel assembly 103 when the signal light body 303 is in use to prevent the device from moving as a whole.

[0032] In this embodiment, a slide groove 208 is provided on both sides of the first column 203 and the folding structure. When the signal light body 303 is in use, the slide groove 208 forms a vertical through groove.

[0035] In this embodiment, a locking ball 302 is connected to the bottom of the mounting seat 301 by bolts, and a hole for cooperating with the locking ball 302 is provided at the top of the lifting plate 401. After the lifting plate 401 rises to the top position of the slide groove 208, the locking ball 302 docks into the lifting plate 401 to prevent the lifting plate 401 from sliding.

[0036] In this embodiment, one side of the movable seat 101 is connected with a mounting buckle 104 by means of bolts. A worker uses a pulling rope tied to the mounting buckle 104 to conveniently drag the movable seat 101 to move.

[0037] Working principle: When the device is in use, in the initial state, the foldable traffic light is in a folded state, wherein the first column 203 is in a lying state, and the signal light body 303 is in the moving seat 101. The staff uses the pulling rope to tie the installation buckle 104 to move the moving seat 101 to the intersection position, and pulls up the signal light body 303 and the first column 203. The first column 203 drives the rotating seat 201 to rotate around the supporting shaft 202, and at the same time the signal light body 303 flips upward. The first column 203 and the signal light body 303 are in a vertical state, and the slide groove 208 together form a vertical through groove. During the rotation of the first column 203, the rotating seat 201 drives the gear 505 to rotate, and the gear 505 drives the rack 504 to translate. The rack 504 drives the translation frame 501 through the connecting frame 503, so that the friction brake pad 502 on the translation frame 501 is against the axle part of the wheel assembly 103, so that the rotation of the wheel assembly 103 is locked. The lifting plate 401 is then lifted upward to allow the slide bar 402 to slide in the slide slot 208. When the lifting plate 401 is lifted to the highest point, the locking ball 302 docks into the hole at the top of the lifting plate 401, and the locking hook 407 rotates and hooks the fixing buckle 408 to prevent the first column 203 from tilting. Then the signal light body 303 is turned on to start traffic control. When the temporary traffic light needs to be withdrawn or moved, the locking hook 407 and the fixing buckle 408 are first unlocked, and the lock is retracted. The hook 407 is fixed, and the lifting plate 401 is pulled down to make the slide bar 402 return to the slide groove 208 of the first column 203, and the signal light body 303 is supported to make the first column 203 rotate downward, and the signal light body 303 is flipped downward so that the first column 203 lies flat in the moving seat 101. The signal light body 303 finally enters the inner side of the guard plate 403 and is protected by the pad 404. During this process, the brake mechanism releases the lock on the wheel assembly 103, and then the moving seat 101 can be pulled.

[0038] The above shows and describes the basic principles, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments. The above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principles of the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, which fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected. The scope of protection claimed by the utility model is defined by the attached claims and their equivalents.
