[0027] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present invention more clearly understood, the present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present invention and are not used to limit the present invention.

[0028] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the traffic highway maintenance operation safety device provided by the utility model is now described. The traffic highway maintenance operation safety device includes: a base 1, a warning column cap 2, an early warning device 9, a first electrode 11 and a second electrode 6. A battery 5 is installed in the base 1. The detachable cover of the warning column cap 2 is arranged on the base 1; the bottom edge of the warning column cap 2 is higher than the bottom surface of the base 1; and the top of the warning column cap 2 is swingably connected to the base 1. The early warning device 9 is fixed in the warning column cap 2 and is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the battery 5. The first electrode 11 is fixed on the base 1 and is electrically connected to the negative electrode of the battery 5. The second electrode 6 is installed on the inner side of the warning column cap 2 and is arranged opposite to the first electrode 11; the second electrode 6 is electrically connected to the early warning device 9. When the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 6 are in contact, the battery 5, the first electrode 11, the second electrode 6 and the early warning device 9 form a passage.

[0029] The traffic highway maintenance operation safety device provided by the utility model has the beneficial effect that: compared with the prior art, in the traffic highway maintenance operation safety device of the utility model, a battery 5 is installed in the base 1, a warning column cap 2 is provided on the base 1, an early warning device 9 is fixed in the warning column cap 2, and is electrically connected to the positive electrode of the battery 5. The first electrode 11 is fixed on the base 1 and is electrically connected to the negative electrode of the battery 5, a second electrode 6 is installed inside the warning column cap 2, and the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 6 are arranged opposite to each other.

[0030] In actual application, the warning column cap 2 is swingably connected to the base 1. When the warning column cap 2 is subjected to external impact, the warning column cap 2 will swing relative to the base 1. During the swinging of the warning column cap 2, the second electrode 6 will contact the first electrode 11. At this time, the electric energy in the storage battery 5 can be transmitted to the warning device 9, thereby generating a warning effect. In this application, the overall structure is simple, the operation is reliable, the installation is convenient, and the warning effect is obvious.

[0031] In some embodiments of the traffic highway maintenance operation safety device provided in this application, please refer to Figure 1 , a counterweight 4 is fixed on the base 1. In actual application, the base 1 needs to be stably positioned on the road surface, that is, the base 1 itself can remain stable to a certain extent. Only after the position of the base 1 is stable can it effectively support the warning column cap 2, and the warning column cap 2 needs to have a certain movement gap relative to the base 1. When the warning column cap 2 is subjected to external impact, the warning column cap 2 can swing a certain angle relative to the base 1, and during the swinging process of the warning column cap 2, the first electrode 11 will contact the second electrode 6, thereby triggering the early warning device 9. The early warning device 9 is connected to the battery 5 through the wire 10, and the wire 10 is passed through the inner side of the warning column cap 2.

[0032] The entire device is mostly placed on the road, that is, there will be vehicles passing by, which will have a certain impact on the base 1 and cause a slight change in the position of the base 1. More importantly, the warning column cap 2 itself has a certain height. If the base 1 is of small mass, the entire warning column cap 2 may fall down under the influence of external wind, and ultimately fail to play a warning effect. For the above reasons, a counterweight 4 is set in the base 1 to increase stability.

[0033] In some embodiments of the traffic highway maintenance operation safety device provided in the present application, the bottom surface of the base 1 is coated with a positioning glue for positioning on the road surface. In order to improve portability, the base 1 does not need to be positioned on the road surface with the help of bolts, etc., and if the base 1 is positioned on the road surface by multiple bolts, first of all, the road surface is damaged to a certain extent due to the need to drill holes, and more importantly, it takes a long time and the construction efficiency is low. For this reason, in the present application, a positioning layer is fixed on the bottom surface of the base 1, and the positioning layer is a material with certain telescopic properties. More importantly, a positioning glue is coated below the positioning layer, and the positioning glue is used to be adsorbed on the road surface. Through the above arrangement, the stability of the position of the base 1 relative to the road surface is guaranteed.

[0034] In some embodiments of the traffic highway maintenance operation safety device provided in this application, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the first electrode 11 is an annular structure mounted on the base 1; a connecting ring 8 is provided on the inner side of the warning column cap 2, and the connecting ring 8 is mounted on the outer side of the first electrode 11; there are multiple second electrodes 6, and the multiple electrodes are arranged along the circumference of the connecting ring 8. The vehicle may hit the warning column cap 2 from multiple directions, that is, the warning column cap 2 can hit the base 1 in all directions. Based on the above reasons, it is necessary to make the first electrode 11 and the second electrode 6 contact when the warning column cap 2 moves in multiple directions. In order to achieve the above technical effects, a connecting ring 8 is provided on the inner side of the bottom of the warning column cap 2, and a first electrode 11 is mounted on the base 1. The first electrode 11 is an annular structure. The connecting ring 8 is fixed on the warning column cap 2, and the connecting ring 8 is located on the outer side of the first electrode 11, that is, a certain distance is between the connecting ring 8 and the first electrode 11.

[0035] A plurality of second electrodes 6 are fixed on the inner side of the connecting ring 8, and the second electrodes 6 are arranged toward the first electrode 11. With the above arrangement, no matter from which direction the vehicle hits the warning column cap 2, the swing of the warning column cap 2 relative to the base 1 will make the second electrode 6 contact with the first electrode 11, thereby ensuring the probability of triggering the early warning device 9.

[0036] In some embodiments of the traffic highway maintenance operation safety device provided in this application, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2, the end of the second electrode 6 close to the first electrode 11 is covered with a permanent magnetic sleeve 12; the permanent magnetic sleeve 12 is adsorbed on the first electrode 11 with the help of the swing of the warning column cap 2. Through the above arrangement, under the action of the elastic member 7, the permanent magnetic sleeve 12 on the second electrode 6 maintains a certain distance from the first electrode 11. When the warning column cap 2 is hit, the permanent magnetic sleeve 12 will approach the first electrode 11, and the magnetic force between the two will gradually increase. The purpose of setting the permanent magnetic sleeve 12 is to enable the second electrode 6 to contact the first electrode 11 even under the action of the elastic member 7, so as to ensure the power-on time of the early warning device 9.

[0037] In some embodiments of the traffic highway maintenance operation safety device provided in this application, please refer to Figure 1 , a plurality of elastic members 7 are installed between the first electrode 11 and the connecting ring 8. If there is no limiting measure between the connecting ring 8 and the base 1, then under the influence of external factors, the first electrode 11 is easy to accidentally touch the second electrode 6, because when a vehicle passes by at high speed, there is a certain impact force on the warning column cap 2, and this impact force may cause the warning column cap 2 to swing. However, if the vehicle directly hits the warning column cap 2, there will be a problem that the second electrode 6 and the first electrode 11 are close to each other but not in contact. Based on the above considerations, a plurality of elastic members 7 are installed between the connecting ring 8 and the first electrode 11, and the elastic member 7 can be a spring.

[0038] The multiple springs are evenly arranged along the circumference of the base 1. More importantly, through the cooperation of the multiple springs, a relatively uniform distance between the connecting ring 8 and the first electrode 11 can be maintained, ultimately ensuring that the early warning device 9 is reliably triggered.

[0039] In some embodiments of the traffic highway maintenance operation safety device provided in this application, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the second electrode 6 corresponds to the elastic member 7 one by one, and the second electrode 6 is fixed to the inner side of the corresponding elastic member 7. For a more detailed description, first, one end of the elastic member 7 is fixed to the first electrode 11, and the other end is fixed to the connecting ring 8. To ensure reliable connection, the two ends of the elastic member 7 can be welded and fixed to the first electrode 11 and the connecting ring 8, respectively.

[0040] When the warning column cap 2 is subjected to external impact, the warning column cap 2 will drive the connecting ring 8 to move, and the movement of the connecting ring 8 will drive the second electrode 6 to move. Since the speed of the vehicle hitting the warning column cap 2 is usually fast, the elastic member 7 will gradually shrink until the second electrode 6 abuts against the first electrode 11. Once the first electrode 11 contacts the second electrode 6, the early warning device 9 will make a sound. By providing the elastic member 7, the direction of movement of the second electrode 6 can be limited to a certain extent, so that the second electrode 6 can effectively contact the first electrode 11.

[0041] In some embodiments of the traffic highway maintenance operation safety device provided in this application, please refer to Figure 1 , a support rod 3 is fixed on the top surface of the base 1, the support rod 3 extends upward, and the warning column cap 2 is swingably connected to the top of the support rod 3. In the present application, the base 1 and the warning column cap 2 can be regarded as a split structure, because only in the case of a split structure can the warning column cap 2 swing relative to the base 1. In order to achieve the above-mentioned technical effect, a support rod 3 is fixed on the top surface of the base 1, and the support rod 3 can be directly threadedly connected to the base 1. The top of the support rod 3 extends upward, and the warning column cap 2 is directly clamped on the top of the support rod 3, that is, the warning column cap 2 can swing within a certain range with the top of the support rod 3 as the center.

[0042] In some embodiments of the traffic highway maintenance operation safety device provided in this application, please refer to Figure 1 , a connecting ball is fixed at the top of the support rod 3, and the warning column cap 2 is provided with a groove that fits with the connecting ball. In order to explain in more detail and ensure that the warning column cap 2 can swing with less resistance, a connecting ball is fixed at the top of the support rod 3, and the connecting ball is integrally formed on the support rod 3. At the same time, a groove that fits with the connecting ball is provided on the inner side of the warning column cap 2. The warning column cap 2 is fitted on the connecting ball through the groove, and can prevent the connecting ball from slipping out of the groove to a certain extent.

[0043] In some embodiments of the traffic highway maintenance operation safety device provided in this application, please refer to Figure 1 A photovoltaic panel is installed on the side of the warning column cap 2, and the photovoltaic panel is electrically connected to the battery 5.

[0044] The triggering of the warning device 9 requires the supply of electric energy from the battery 5. In order to avoid the need to install electric wires 10 to repeatedly charge the battery 5, a photovoltaic panel is installed on the side of the warning column cap 2. The electric energy generated by the photovoltaic panel will be transmitted to the battery 5, thereby charging the battery 5.

[0045] It should be noted that the photovoltaic panel is only arranged on a small part of the side of the warning column cap 2, and the photovoltaic panel needs to be arranged on the side of the warning column cap 2 away from the passing vehicles to prevent the light reflected by the photovoltaic panel from irradiating the driver.

[0046] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
