Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of traffic safety, in particular to a luminous curbstone. Background Art

[0002] On busy city streets and intersections, conflicts between pedestrians and motor vehicles occur frequently, which not only affects traffic efficiency but also poses a serious threat to pedestrian safety.

[0003] To address pedestrian-vehicle conflicts, a series of measures have traditionally been implemented, such as traffic lights, zebra crossings, and warning signs. These measures, through clear traffic signals and signs, guide pedestrians to cross the street safely according to traffic rules, effectively avoiding collisions with vehicles. However, while these measures have alleviated pedestrian-vehicle conflicts to a certain extent, their effectiveness remains limited for certain groups, such as the elderly, children, and "phone addicts" (pedestrians who are overly dependent on mobile phones and other electronic devices and have a tendency to lose focus).

[0004] To further enhance pedestrian warnings, luminous floor tiles have been innovatively applied to traffic light-controlled crossings in recent years. These tiles utilize a built-in light source to emit bright light at night or in low-light conditions, creating a prominent warning area. This technology has been particularly effective among the elderly, children, and those who frequently use their phones, significantly raising their awareness of traffic safety and reducing the incidence of traffic accidents.

[0005] However, the current installation method for luminous floor tiles in the industry still has some shortcomings. Typically, luminous floor tiles are installed through a secondary excavation after road construction is completed. This installation method requires a series of tedious steps, such as grooving the road, laying cables, and installing the tiles. This not only easily damages the integrity and structural stability of the road, but also makes it difficult to control the flatness during installation, which can easily lead to loose tiles or uneven surfaces. Furthermore, the secondary excavation and installation wastes resources and increases construction costs and time. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides a luminous curb stone, the color display of which is synchronized with the pedestrian signal light, which can effectively strengthen the reminder to pedestrians; in addition, the luminous curb stone can be implemented simultaneously with road construction, solving the problem in related technologies that luminous floor tiles require secondary road excavation for installation.
