DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0028] like Figure 1-8 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a tripod 10 and a vehicle 20. The tripod 10 is stably placed at the bottom of the vehicle 20. In an emergency, the tripod 10 can be released by operating a control button, so that the tripod 10 falls to the ground and automatically unfolds, presenting a shape of a regular tetrahedron, and a reflective sheet or warning light attached to its surface is used to send a light signal reminder to the vehicle 20 traveling behind.

[0029] The original intention of the inventor's design is that due to the heavy traffic volume and high speed on the expressway, the driver and passengers need to place the tripod 10 for warning behind the vehicle 20 after an accident occurs in the vehicle 20, so as to remind passing vehicles 20 to pay attention to avoid and improve traffic safety. However, there are also many dangerous factors in the process of placing the tripod 10 by the driver and passengers, which is not conducive to the driver and passengers manually placing the tripod 10 quickly and effectively at a certain distance behind the accident vehicle 20; the prior art discloses a device combining a tripod and a drone, which can fly to a specified position under the control of the user, which can solve the safety problem in the placement of the tripod, but there is also the problem of long operation time.

[0030] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, a receiving cavity 13 is provided at the bottom of the main support 11 and the auxiliary support 12 in the tripod 10, and the receiving cavity is configured to be installed with a support frame 14, and the support frame 14 is used to connect the ends of the main support 11 and the auxiliary support 12 away from the ends that are hinged to each other. The length of the support frame 14 is at least one-third to three-fifths of the length of the edge of the bottom of the main support 11 or the auxiliary support 12. In this way, after the main support 11 and the auxiliary support 12 are fully unfolded, the support frame 14 can reach the same or similar length as the bottom edge of the main support 11 and the auxiliary support 12, so that the bottom of the tripod 10 forms an equilateral triangle or an approximately equilateral triangle shape, thereby enhancing stability when standing.

[0031] It can be understood that the accommodating cavity 13 is arranged along the length direction of the edge of the main bracket 11 or the auxiliary bracket 12, and for the main bracket 11 and the auxiliary bracket 12, the two accommodating cavities 13 are arranged in a symmetrical manner, and the hinged end of the support frame 14 is arranged on the side away from the main bracket 11 and the auxiliary bracket 12 where the hinge is connected.

[0032] Taking into account the relationship between the total length of the two support frames 14 after unfolding and the length of each edge of the tripod 10, the length of the support frame 14 is configured to be at least one-third to three-fifths of the length of the bottom edge of the main bracket 11 or the auxiliary bracket 12. After the two support frames 14 are unfolded, the length of each edge of the tripod 10 can be basically the same, thereby forming a tetrahedral structure, so that the tripod 10 can still stand stably after rolling on the ground, thereby improving the stability of the tripod 10 in providing a warning to the rear vehicle 20.

[0033] Among them, the length of the support frame 14 can be one-third, one-half or three-fifths of the length of the edge of the tripod 10, and its length is also related to the rotation center position of the support frame 14, but its basic design idea is that the total length of the two support frames 14 after unfolding is similar to or the same as the edge length of the tripod 10.

[0034] In this embodiment, the main bracket 11 and the auxiliary bracket 12 are hingedly connected, and the main bracket 11 is integrally connected with a fixing seat 111, and the fixing seat 111 is provided with a rotation groove along its extension direction, that is, the length direction of the edge; the auxiliary bracket 12 has a cylindrical rotating column 121 that can be inserted into the rotating groove; after the rotating column 121 on the auxiliary bracket 12 is inserted into the rotating groove, the auxiliary bracket 12 can be rotated around the main bracket 11, thereby realizing the unfolding and fitting of the tripod 10.

[0035] In this embodiment, the expansion and fitting of the main bracket 11 and the auxiliary bracket 12 are mainly completed by the reset spring 17 arranged on the main bracket 11 and the auxiliary bracket 12; the reset component is in a compressed state when the main bracket 11 and the auxiliary bracket 12 are fitted together, and at this time, the support frame 14 is parallel to the edges of the main bracket 11 and the auxiliary bracket 12; the reset component is in a free state when the main bracket 11 and the auxiliary bracket 12 are separated, and at this time, the support frame 14 and the edges connected to them on the main bracket 11 and the auxiliary bracket 12 have a certain inclination angle, and the two edges of the bottom of the tripod 10 after expansion form an equilateral triangle or an equilateral triangle shape between the two support frames 14.

[0036] Among them, Figures 3 to 7 As shown, the reset assembly includes a reset spring 17 and a fixed collar 16, wherein the fixed collar 16 is fixedly arranged on the outer side of the upper part of the fixed shaft 15, and the fixing method may be clamping or welding, etc.; the reset spring 17 is at least partially sleeved on the outer side of the fixed shaft 15, one end of which extends and passes through the fixed collar 16, and the other end directly or indirectly abuts against the inner wall surface of the accommodating chamber 13, so that in the process of the support frame 14 entering the inner side of the accommodating chamber 13 from the outer side of the accommodating chamber 13, the reset spring 17 is gradually compressed, thereby applying a kind of elastic potential energy to the support frame 14, so that the support frame 14 has a tendency to move from the inner side of the accommodating chamber 13 to the outer side of the accommodating chamber 13, so that after the tripod 10 is released, the reset spring 17 pushes the support frame 14 outward, so that the support frame 14 rotates out of the accommodating chamber 13.

[0037] The fixing ring 16 is similar to a common gasket in life, and a limiting hole is provided on its end surface, and one end of the reset spring 17 extends upward and passes through the limiting hole, so that the reset spring 17 does not rotate when compressed, thereby maintaining its position stability.

[0038] The main body of the return spring 17 is composed of a conventional return spring, the upper end of which extends upward into a cylindrical shape, and the lower end of which is fixedly connected to an abutment plate 19 through an extension column 18. The abutment plate 19 abuts against the inner wall of the support frame 14 when it is placed horizontally in the accommodating cavity 13.

[0039] The contact plate 19 is a flat plate with thickness.

[0040] In this embodiment, a plurality of reset assemblies may be provided to provide more driving force for the support frame 14 .

[0041] refer to Figure 3 and Figure 5In order to make the two support frames 14 move closer to each other at the ends away from the rotating side after the two support frames 14 rotate, a plurality of magnetic members 141 are arranged at the ends of the support frames 14 away from the fixed axis 15, and the magnetic properties of the magnetic members 141 on the two support frames 14 are opposite; after the support frames 14 receive the thrust of the reset spring 17, the magnetic members 141 can quickly attract the free ends of the two support frames 14, accelerate the rotation of the support frames 14, and finally form an equilateral triangle or a nearly equilateral triangle with the edges of the tripod 10.

[0042] like Figure 8 As shown, the present application also provides a vehicle 20, which includes the tripod 10 described above, and an installation cavity 21 is provided on the lower side of the rear end of the vehicle 20, the tripod 10 is laterally fixed in the installation cavity 21, and the release of the tripod 10 is controlled by a control component.

[0043] The mounting cavity 21 is a rectangular groove. After the tripod 10 is placed in the mounting cavity 21 , it is close to the side wall of the mounting cavity 21 .

[0044] In this embodiment, the control component includes an electric telescopic rod 22, a first clamp 24 and a second clamp 23, wherein the first clamp 24 and the second clamp 23 are used to support the tripod 10 described above, the first clamp 24 is arranged on the inner wall of the installation cavity 21, the second clamp 23 is arranged at the end of the electric telescopic rod 22, and the electric telescopic rod 22 is arranged on the inner wall on the other side of the installation cavity 21 corresponding to the first clamp 24.

[0045] Normally, when an unexpected situation occurs during the driving of a vehicle, it is necessary to open the tripod warning sign and place it at a certain distance behind the vehicle after the vehicle stops. This process poses a great safety hazard to the operator. However, the tripod is installed in the installation cavity of the vehicle. When the vehicle has not completely stopped, the control component is started by the control button in the cab, the electric telescopic rod 22 in the control component contracts, and the fitted tripod 10 falls from the installation cavity 21. During this process, the return spring 17 begins to change from a compressed state to a free state and drives the support frame 14 to rotate around the fixed axis 15. The magnetic members 141 arranged at the ends of the two support frames 14 attract each other and make them closer and closer, and form a colinear state, so that the tripod 10 presents a tetrahedron shape, and the light-emitting sheets arranged on the edges of the tripod 10 are used to remind the rear vehicle to avoid danger.
