Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of road traffic indication, in particular to an intelligent variable lane indication system. Background Art

[0002] In recent years, the number of motor vehicles has grown annually, and the proportion of motor vehicle trips has remained high. This has squeezed road time and space, and traffic jams have become a common occurrence in urban transportation. However, at some intersections, traffic volume exhibits regular changes over the course of the day. For example, the morning rush hour is dominated by left-turn traffic, while the evening rush hour is dominated by through traffic.

[0003] Currently, to cope with this fluctuating traffic volume, variable lanes are typically implemented, using markings and variable lane signs to adjust lane direction to traffic flow. However, variable lane signs typically need to be set at least 40 meters ahead of the stop line. Ordinary ground markings don't indicate lane direction, so there's a gap in lane direction between the variable lane sign and the stop line. After a vehicle passes the variable lane sign, drivers are unable to discern the actual lane direction, resulting in low variable lane utilization and even driving into the wrong lane. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above problems, the utility model provides an intelligent variable lane indication system, which is suitable for variable lane intersections and can effectively provide supplementary guidance for lane indication blind spots, avoid vehicles driving in the wrong direction, improve driving safety, and effectively improve the utilization rate of variable lanes.

[0006] In one embodiment of the present invention, the second luminous floor tile partition represents a straight arrow, and the third luminous floor tile partition represents a left turn arrow.

[0007] In one embodiment of the present invention, the first luminous floor tile partition, the second luminous floor tile partition, and the third luminous floor tile partition use luminous floor tiles, which are spliced ​​by luminous floor tile unit modules and are controlled by partition.

A first feature being "below," "below," and "below" a second feature may include the first feature being directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or may simply mean that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.

[0024] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of an existing variable lane setting. In the figure, there is a lack of lane direction indication from the location of the variable lane indicator sign to the stop line. After the vehicle passes the variable lane indicator sign, the driver cannot discern the real-time direction of the variable lane.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 2-Figure 5 The present invention provides an intelligent variable lane indication system, which in some embodiments includes a variable arrow module 1, a control module 2 and a variable lane indication sign control module 3. The variable arrow module 1 is set in the lane between the existing variable lane indication sign and the stop line at the intersection, and the variable arrow module 1 is communicated with the control module 2, and the control module 2 is communicated with the variable lane indication sign control module 3; the variable arrow module 1 includes a first luminous floor tile partition 5, a second luminous floor tile partition 6 connected to the first luminous floor tile partition 5, and a third luminous floor tile partition 7; the variable lane indication sign control module 3 is used to control the variable lane indication sign and generate a display signal, and the control module 2 is used to generate a control signal according to the display signal of the variable lane indication sign control module 3, so as to respectively control the first luminous floor tile partition 5 and / or the second luminous floor tile partition 6 and / or the third luminous floor tile partition 7 of the variable arrow module 1 to emit light.

[0026] Furthermore, the second luminous tile partition 6 represents a straight arrow, and the third luminous tile partition 7 represents a left turn or other arrow. By controlling the first luminous tile partition 5 and / or the second luminous tile partition 6 and / or the third luminous tile partition 7 to illuminate respectively, the corresponding variable arrow patterns are changed and illuminated.

[0027] Optionally, the first luminous floor tile partition 5, the second luminous floor tile partition 6, and the third luminous floor tile partition 7 can be made of luminous floor tiles, which are spliced ​​by luminous floor tile unit modules and controlled in different zones. Among them, luminous floor tiles are a technology well known to those skilled in the art, so they will not be described in detail here.

[0028] Optionally, the second luminous tile partition 6 and the third luminous tile partition 7 may emit the same luminous color. By using the same luminous color to display the indicator arrows for the changeable lanes, ambiguity caused by displaying different colors can be avoided. Preferably, the luminous color of the first luminous tile partition 5, the second luminous tile partition 6, and the third luminous tile partition 7 may be white light.

[0029] This embodiment of the present invention provides an intelligent variable lane indicator system with a variable arrow module 1, which is installed on the ground of the variable lane and can change the direction of the ground arrow according to the variable lane direction display signal. For example, when the variable lane indicator sign indicates straight ahead, the ground straight arrow lights up; when the variable lane indicator sign indicates left turn, the ground left turn arrow lights up. The present invention is applicable to intersections with variable lanes. For the blank area between the variable lane indicator sign and the stop line, the lane direction can be displayed in real time, avoiding wrong driving, improving driving safety, and effectively increasing the utilization rate of the variable lane.

[0030] Please refer to Figure 4 In some embodiments, a control box 8 is further included. The control box 8 is set at an existing variable lane indicator sign at the intersection, and the control module 2 is installed in the control box 8.

[0031] In some embodiments, a power supply module 4 is provided in the control chassis 8 , and the power supply module 4 is electrically connected to the control module 2 , and the power supply module 4 is used to supply power to the control module 2 .

[0032] In some embodiments, a transparent protective layer is provided on the surface of the variable arrow module 1. The transparent protective layer may be organic glass, which is used to protect the variable arrow module 1, withstand the weight of passing vehicles, and has waterproof and moisture-proof functions to prevent the variable arrow module 1 from being damaged by passing vehicles or natural factors.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 3 The variable arrow module 1 is composed of luminous floor tile units. Taking the lane direction of straight going and left turn as an example, the luminous floor tile unit is partitioned into the first luminous floor tile partition 5, the second luminous floor tile partition 6, and the third luminous floor tile partition 7 for partition control.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The variable arrow module 1 of the intelligent variable lane indication system provided by the embodiment of the present invention is generally set in the solid line segment of the variable lane. At least two variable arrow modules 1 are set in one lane, and additional ones can be provided according to actual guidance needs.

[0036] If the direction indicated by the existing variable lane indicator at the intersection is straight ahead, the first luminous floor tile partition 5 and the second luminous floor tile partition 6 in the variable arrow module 1 on the ground will light up, and the third luminous floor tile partition 7 will not light up, and the graphic display will be a straight ahead arrow. Figure 4 If the direction of the existing variable lane indicator at the intersection is changed to turn left, the first luminous floor tile partition 5 and the third luminous floor tile partition 7 in the variable arrow module 1 on the ground will light up, and the second luminous floor tile partition 6 will not light up, and the graphic display will be a left turn arrow, as shown. Figure 5 shown.

This effectively provides supplementary guidance for lane blind spots, preventing vehicles from entering the wrong lane, improving driving safety, and effectively increasing variable lane utilization. This invention offers the advantages of high practicality and low cost, and can be widely used at variable lane intersections.
