Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a traffic cone which can be moved by remote control. Background Art

[0002] When traffic accidents or construction work occur on highways, traffic cones are often used to close lanes. Currently, this task is mostly performed manually. However, with the development of road transportation, the width of highways in my country has gradually increased. Single-lane four-lane highways are now quite common, typically 17.5 meters wide. Manually carrying traffic cones across lanes in traffic is very unsafe, and accidents often result in worker casualties. More seriously, these casualties can also lead to secondary accidents. Therefore, there is a need to design and develop a remote-controlled, movable traffic cone to prevent worker casualties and secondary accidents. Utility Model Content

[0006] Furthermore, the lifting device includes a scissor difference mechanism arranged on a mobile platform and a motor for driving the scissor difference mechanism to lift, and the tray is arranged on the top of the scissor difference mechanism.

[0007] Furthermore, a threaded rod is provided on the mobile platform, and a nut matching it is installed on the threaded rod. One end of the bottom of the scissors difference mechanism is connected to the mobile platform through a rotating shaft, and the other end is connected to the nut. The motor is connected to the threaded rod for transmission, driving the threaded rod to rotate and thereby driving the nut to move on the threaded rod.

[0008] Furthermore, a mounting frame is provided on the mobile platform, the threaded rod is arranged on the mounting frame, a transmission wheel is provided at one end of the threaded rod, and the output shaft of the motor is connected to the transmission wheel through a synchronous belt or gear transmission.

[0009] Furthermore, a slotted bracket is provided on one side of the tray, and a connecting bracket is provided on the other side. A slide groove is provided on the slotted bracket. One end of the top of the scissors mechanism is installed in the slide groove through a sliding connecting shaft, and the other end is connected to the connecting bracket through a rotating shaft.

[0010] Furthermore, the mobile platform adopts a crawler or wheeled chassis, and a driving motor for driving the mobile platform is provided on the mobile platform.

[0011] Furthermore, an electric control panel is provided on the mobile platform for receiving remote control signals and issuing instructions.

[0012] Furthermore, an audible and visual warning light is provided on the mobile platform.

[0013] The positive effects of this utility model are:

[0014] This utility model installs a mobile platform within the traffic cone, and is equipped with a lifting device that can raise and lower the traffic cone. When the cone needs to be moved, the traffic cone is lifted off the ground, and the mobile platform is remotely controlled to move. Once in position, the lifting device lowers, and the traffic cone falls to the ground. This utility model can remotely move the position of the traffic cone, allowing workers to operate the cone to close the road in the emergency lane without entering the lane, thus avoiding casualties and secondary accidents.

[0019] As attached Figure 1-3 As shown, the utility model discloses a remotely controlled movable traffic cone, comprising a cone barrel body 1, a mobile platform 3 arranged in the cone barrel body 1, a lifting device arranged on the mobile platform 3, and a tray 2 arranged on the lifting device. The shape of the tray 2 is adapted to the interior of the cone barrel body 1, and the lifting device drives the tray 2 to move up and down, thereby causing the cone barrel body 1 to rise or fall to the ground.

[0020] The lifting device is installed on the mobile platform 3, including a scissor difference mechanism and a motor 6 for driving the scissor difference mechanism to lift or lower. The tray 2 is set at the top position of the scissor difference mechanism. A mounting frame is provided on the mobile platform 3, and a threaded rod 4 is provided on the mounting frame. At one end of the threaded rod 4 ( Figure 2 The left end of the tray 2 is provided with a transmission wheel, which is connected to the output shaft of the motor 6 through a synchronous belt 5 or a gear transmission. The motor 5 drives the threaded rod 4 to rotate, and a nut is installed on the threaded rod 4. Figure 2 A slotted bracket 8 is provided on the left side as shown, and a connecting bracket 10 is provided on the other end. A sliding groove 9 is provided on the slotted bracket 8.

When the scissor mechanism is in operation, the sliding connecting shaft 7 moves in the chute 9. The bottom end of the other fork arm is connected to the nut via a rotating shaft, and the top end is connected to the connecting bracket 10 via a rotating shaft 11. When the motor 6 drives the threaded rod 4 to rotate, the nut moves along its axial position, causing the scissor mechanism to operate, thereby raising or lowering the tray 2.

[0022] The mobile platform 3 can be moved on a crawler or wheeled chassis. The crawler type is used in the drawings of this embodiment. A drive motor is installed on each side of the crawler, and the two drive motors are respectively located at the two ends of the crawler.

[0023] An electric control panel 13 and an audible and visual warning light are provided on the mobile platform 3 . The electric control panel 13 can be used to receive remote control signals and send action instructions to the mobile platform 3 .

[0024] like Figure 4 As shown, the electric control board 13 may include a communication module, a microprocessor, a power supply, etc. The communication module receives the remote control signal, and the microprocessor can mobilize the drive motor, the motor 6, and the sound and light warning lights to move.

[0025] To use this utility model, place the mobile platform on the ground, place the cone body 1 on top of it, and then control the lifting mechanism with a remote control to raise the cone body 1, lifting it off the ground.
