Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of road construction early warning systems, in particular to an active monitoring and early warning system for road construction. Background Art

[0002] During road construction, traffic cones are often placed to indicate construction areas ahead and to guide vehicles. Currently, there are many construction site lights and warning devices on the market, but most only serve to alert drivers and fail to proactively alert construction workers when vehicles intrude into the construction buffer zone. This can lead to collisions between intruding vehicles and construction vehicles or workers, resulting in serious consequences.

[0003] Currently, there are two main types of intelligent road construction monitoring. The first is to install infrared sensors between road cones to identify people or objects that accidentally enter between the cones. The second is to install collision sensors on the road cones. When the cone is hit, the sensor receives a sensor signal, and the alarm device on the cone emits corresponding information.

[0004] The main problem with the above intelligent monitoring is that it is not proactive enough, a mobile power supply needs to be installed on the intelligent road cone, and there are problems with the coordination between the various road cones. Utility Model Content

[0005] The main purpose of the utility model is to provide an active monitoring and early warning system for road construction, aiming to solve the problems existing in intelligent monitoring, which mainly lie in the lack of initiative, the need to set up a mobile power supply on the intelligent road cone, and the poor coordination between the work of each road cone.

[0006] In order to achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a road construction active monitoring and early warning system, comprising:

[0007] A plurality of construction road cone assemblies, each comprising a base plate and a road cone portion detachably disposed on the base plate, wherein a functional component is disposed on an outer wall of the base plate, the functional component comprising an ultrasonic distance sensor, a collision sensor, and a buzzer, wherein the ultrasonic distance sensor operates away from the outer wall of the road cone portion;

[0008] A connecting line portion, electrically connected to the plurality of functional components;

[0009] A power input for supplying power to the connecting wire portion;

[0010] A controller is electrically connected to the connecting line portion, a plurality of the ultrasonic distance sensors are connected to the controller in parallel, a plurality of the collision sensors are connected to the controller in parallel, and a plurality of the buzzers are connected to the controller in series. When any one of the plurality of the ultrasonic distance sensors and the plurality of the collision sensors is triggered, the controller controls the buzzer to activate.

[0011] Furthermore, the working direction of the ultrasonic distance sensor has an upward angle of 5 to 20 degrees.

[0012] Furthermore, a notification light is provided on the functional component, and the connecting line portion connects a plurality of the notification lights in parallel.

[0013] Furthermore, the connecting line portion includes a plurality of sections of inter-group connecting lines, the inter-group connecting lines are connected between two adjacent functional components, and the inter-group connecting lines can be detachably connected to the functional components.

[0014] Furthermore, a circular slot is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the base plate, and the slot is used to wind and fix the inter-group connecting wire.

[0015] Furthermore, the bottom of the base plate is provided with an anti-slip surface.

[0016] Furthermore, the road cone portion is sleeved on the base plate.

[0017] Furthermore, the height of the base plate is 4 to 8 centimeters, and the vertical connection dimension between the road cone portion and the base plate is 2 to 3 centimeters.

[0018] Furthermore, a first connecting structure and a second connecting structure forming a snap-fit ​​matching relationship are respectively provided on the upper and lower surfaces of the base plate in the thickness direction.

[0019] Furthermore, the functional component can be detachably mounted on the base plate.

[0020] The utility model provides an active road construction monitoring and early warning system. When a construction cone assembly is hit, the cone portion can be separated upward from the base plate, reducing the negative impact on the normal driving of the vehicle. During use, the direction of the construction cone assembly is adjusted so that the ultrasonic distance sensor can obtain a vehicle approaching signal at the corresponding position. The connecting wire portion is electrically connected to multiple functional components, providing power to the functional components while also forming a basis for communication between the functional components and the controller. The construction cone assembly itself does not have a mobile power supply, which simplifies the structure and reduces damage to the vehicle during a collision. When any one of the multiple ultrasonic distance sensors and the multiple collision sensors is triggered, the controller controls the buzzer to activate, so that the buzzers within the entire construction range work, thereby alerting workers to the presence of danger and improving the safety of the entire system.

[0031] Reference Figures 1 to 6 In one embodiment of the present invention, a road construction active monitoring and early warning system includes:

[0032] Multiple construction cone assemblies 100, each comprising a base plate 110 and a cone portion 120 detachably mounted on the base plate 110. A functional assembly 111 is mounted on an outer wall of the base plate 110. The functional assembly 111 includes an ultrasonic distance sensor 112, a collision sensor 113, and a buzzer 114. The ultrasonic distance sensor 112 is oriented away from the outer wall of the cone portion 120.

[0033] The connecting line portion 200 is electrically connected to the plurality of functional components 111;

[0034] A power input 300 for supplying power to the connecting wire portion 200;

[0035] The controller 400 is electrically connected to the connecting line portion 200, the plurality of ultrasonic distance sensors 112 are connected to the controller 400 in parallel, the plurality of collision sensors 113 are connected to the controller 400 in parallel, and the plurality of buzzers 114 are connected to the controller 400 in series. When any one of the plurality of ultrasonic distance sensors 112 and the plurality of collision sensors 113 is triggered, the controller 400 controls the buzzer 114 to activate.

[0036] In the existing technology, the main problem with intelligent monitoring is that it is not proactive enough, a mobile power supply needs to be installed on the intelligent road cone, and there are problems with the coordination between the various road cones.

[0037] In the present invention, when the construction cone assembly 100 is in use, the up and down directions are fixed, and thus a certain direction indication is performed in an up and down manner.

[0038] The active road construction monitoring and warning system includes multiple construction cone assemblies 100, which can be used to isolate construction areas and guide traffic flow. Each construction cone assembly 100 includes a base plate 110 and a detachable cone portion 120 mounted on the base plate 110. When a collision occurs, the cone portion 120 can be lifted away from the base plate 110, while the base plate 110 remains on the road surface, minimizing the negative impact on normal vehicle movement. A functional assembly 111 is mounted on the outer wall of the base plate 110. This assembly includes an ultrasonic distance sensor 112, a collision sensor 113, and a buzzer 114. The ultrasonic distance sensor 112 is oriented away from the outer wall of the cone portion 120. During use, the construction cone assembly 100 is adjusted in orientation so that the ultrasonic distance sensor 112 can detect approaching vehicles at the corresponding location. There are no excessive restrictions on the locations of the collision sensor 113 and the buzzer 114 , and they can function normally in most locations. In a specific implementation, both can also be set on the outer wall of the road cone portion 120 , thereby reducing the difficulty of processing and maintenance.

[0039] The connecting wires 200 are electrically connected to the various functional components 111, providing power to the components and facilitating communication between the components 111 and the controller 400. The construction cone assembly 100 lacks a power source, simplifying its structure and minimizing damage to the vehicle during a collision.

[0040] The power input 300 supplies power to the connecting line portion 200. The power input 300 can be a mobile power supply or a power plug, etc., which is selected according to the usage environment.

[0041] Reference Figure 6 The controller 400 is electrically connected to the connecting line portion 200. Multiple ultrasonic distance sensors 112 are connected to the controller 400 in parallel, multiple collision sensors 113 are connected to the controller 400 in parallel, and multiple buzzers 114 are connected to the controller 400 in series. When any one of the multiple ultrasonic distance sensors 112 and the multiple collision sensors 113 is triggered, the controller 400 controls the buzzer 114 to activate, so that all buzzers 114 within the entire construction range work, thereby alerting workers to the presence of danger.

[0042] In summary, when the construction cone assembly 100 is impacted, the cone portion 120 can be upwardly separated from the base plate 110, reducing the negative impact on the normal driving of the vehicle. During use, the orientation of the construction cone assembly 100 is adjusted so that the ultrasonic distance sensor 112 can obtain a vehicle approaching signal at the corresponding position. The connecting wire portion 200 is electrically connected to the multiple functional components 111, providing power to the functional components 111 and forming a basis for communication between the functional components 111 and the controller 400. The construction cone assembly 100 itself does not include a mobile power supply, which simplifies the structure and reduces damage to the vehicle during a collision. When any of the multiple ultrasonic distance sensors 112 and the multiple collision sensors 113 is triggered, the controller 400 controls the buzzer 114 to activate, thereby activating the buzzers 114 throughout the construction area, alerting workers to the presence of danger and improving the safety of the entire system.

[0043] In one embodiment, the working direction of the ultrasonic distance sensor 112 has an upward angle of 5 to 20 degrees.

[0044] In this embodiment, considering that the ultrasonic distance sensor 112 is set at a low position and may not be able to detect vehicles at a higher position, the ultrasonic distance sensor 112 is set to work in an obliquely upward direction, which can effectively detect the distance between the vehicle and the ultrasonic distance sensor 112.

[0045] In one embodiment, a notification light is further provided on the functional component 111 , and the connecting line portion 200 connects a plurality of the notification lights in parallel.

[0046] In this embodiment, when the notification light is powered on and illuminated, the notification light can indicate that the functional component 111 is normally connected to the voltage, and can also serve as a warning light. The notification light is preferably an LED type light.

[0047] Reference Figure 1 In one embodiment, the connecting line portion 200 includes multiple segments of inter-group connecting lines 210 , and the inter-group connecting lines 210 are connected between two adjacent functional components 111 . The inter-group connecting lines 210 can be detachably connected to the functional components 111 .

[0048] In this embodiment, the inter-group connecting line 210 is defined as being detachable, so that when it malfunctions, it can be easily disassembled and replaced without rendering the entire road construction active monitoring and early warning system unusable.

[0049] Reference Figures 2 to 5 In one embodiment, a circular slot 115 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the base plate 110 , and the slot 115 is used to wind and fix the inter-group connecting wire 210 .

[0050] In this embodiment, a slot 115 is formed on the outer peripheral wall of the base plate 110 , so that the inter-group connecting wire 210 can be conveniently wound thereon for storage, thereby optimizing both storage and use processes.

[0051] In one embodiment, the bottom of the base plate 110 is provided with an anti-slip surface.

[0052] In this embodiment, an anti-slip surface is provided on the bottom of the base plate 110 to improve the stability of the base plate 110 on the construction road surface. The anti-slip surface can be a convex or concave stripe structure, a convex dot structure, etc., with the convex or concave size ranging from 0.5 to 2 mm.

[0053] Reference Figures 2 to 5 In one embodiment, the road cone portion 120 is sleeved on the base plate 110 .

[0054] In this embodiment, a simple method for fixing the traffic cone 120 is provided. The traffic cone 120 is cylindrical and is sleeved on the base plate 110. Therefore, when the traffic cone 120 is hit, the traffic cone 120 can be quickly separated from the base plate 110, thereby preventing the base plate 110 from negatively impacting the vehicle.

[0055] In one embodiment, the height of the base plate 110 is 4 to 8 centimeters, and the vertical connection dimension between the traffic cone 120 and the base plate 110 is 2 to 3 centimeters.

[0056] In this embodiment, the size of the base plate 110 is limited, thereby reducing the possibility of a vehicle colliding with the base plate 110 and limiting the degree of engagement between the road cone 120 and the base plate 110 , thereby ensuring that the road cone 120 can be more stably fixed.

[0057] In one embodiment, a first connection structure and a second connection structure forming a snap-fit ​​matching relationship are respectively provided on the upper and lower surfaces of the base plate 110 in the thickness direction.

[0058] In this embodiment, a first connecting structure and a second connecting structure are provided in the thickness direction of the base plate 110 , so that when a plurality of base plates 110 are stored and transported, they can form a snap fit with each other, thereby improving convenience.

[0059] In one embodiment, the power input 300 is a mobile power supply.

[0060] In this embodiment, the mobile power supply can be in the form of various types of storage batteries, thereby increasing the flexibility of the entire road construction active monitoring and early warning system. In other implementations, the power input 300 can also be a power plug, so that it can be connected to an external voltage source.

[0061] In one embodiment, the functional component 111 is detachably mounted on the base plate 110 .

[0062] In this embodiment, the functional component 111 is defined as detachable, so when the functional component 111 malfunctions, it can be restored by replacing it. Specifically, the functional component 111 can be fixed to the base plate 110 by a clamping connection or a bolt connection.

[0063] In summary, the present invention provides an active road construction monitoring and warning system. When the construction cone assembly 100 is impacted, the cone portion 120 can be upwardly separated from the base plate 110, reducing the negative impact on the normal driving of the vehicle. During use, the orientation of the construction cone assembly 100 is adjusted so that the ultrasonic distance sensor 112 can obtain a vehicle approaching signal at the corresponding position. The connecting wire portion 200 is electrically connected to the multiple functional components 111, providing power to the functional components 111 and forming a basis for communication between the functional components 111 and the controller 400. The construction cone assembly 100 itself does not include a mobile power supply, which simplifies the structure and reduces damage to the vehicle during a collision. When any of the multiple ultrasonic distance sensors 112 and the multiple collision sensors 113 is triggered, the controller 400 controls the buzzer 114 to activate, thereby activating the buzzers 114 throughout the construction area, alerting workers to the presence of danger and improving the safety of the entire system.
