Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traffic safety technology, specifically a flexible traffic cone with a warning lighting device. Background Technology

[0002] Most traffic cones commonly used on roads are made of rigid materials and have a certain degree of rigidity. When a traffic cone is hit by a vehicle, due to its high hardness and rigidity, it is often pushed, overturned, or even stuck under the vehicle. This not only reduces its warning effect but may also cause traffic accidents. Repositioning it requires a significant amount of time. Furthermore, traditional traffic cones have poor visibility at night and cannot provide effective long-distance warnings. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a flexible traffic cone that can reduce the danger after a collision and has a better nighttime warning effect.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, a flexible traffic cone with a warning lighting device is designed, comprising a traffic cone base and a traffic cone body. The traffic cone body is characterized by being made of a flexible transparent material and having an open bottom cone shape. An LED assembly is provided in the middle of the traffic cone base, and the LED beads of the LED assembly are located on the base inside the traffic cone body.

[0005] Preferably, the traffic cone has a height of 1 meter, a bottom diameter of 50 centimeters, and a wall thickness of about 2-3 millimeters.

[0006] Preferably, the traffic cone base is made of synthetic resin material.

[0007] Preferably, the traffic cone body is connected to the traffic cone base via a snap-fit ​​structure.

[0008] Preferably, the traffic cone base has a groove located outside the LED bead, and the bottom of the traffic cone body is connected to the groove of the traffic cone base.

[0009] Preferably, the traffic cone body is made of rubber material.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of this utility model are:

[0011] 1. Improved traffic safety: The flexible structure effectively reduces the risk of being pushed, overturned, or even trapped under a vehicle after a collision, thus increasing the effectiveness of warnings;

[0012] 2. Enhanced nighttime visibility: The addition of LED lights allows traffic cones to function effectively as a warning system even at night;

[0013] 3. Reduced repositioning time after tipping over: Because the vertebrae can be easily and quickly dislodged from the vehicle body, the time required for manual repositioning is reduced. Attached Figure Description

[0018] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The structure and principle of the present invention are very clear to those skilled in the art. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for explaining the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0019] like Figure 1 , 2 As shown in Figures 1 and 3, the flexible traffic cone of this utility model includes a traffic cone body 1, a traffic cone base 2, and an LED assembly 3.

[0020] The traffic cone 1 is made of a highly elastic soft material to ensure good flexibility and deformation ability. The traffic cone can be made of any kind of flexible transparent material, such as silicone rubber, ethylene propylene rubber, etc. The cone is 1 meter high, 50 centimeters in diameter at the bottom, and has a wall thickness of about 2-3 millimeters.

[0021] Design of traffic cone base 2: The traffic cone base 2 has a groove, and a rechargeable LED component 3 is embedded in the base in the groove. The bottom of the traffic cone 1 is connected to the groove of the traffic cone base 2. The traffic cone base 2 is made of sturdy synthetic resin material and is about 10-15 cm high.

[0022] LED component 3 is designed to consist of multiple high-brightness LEDs that are evenly distributed on the base to provide all-around lighting.

[0023] Power supply: LED component 3 is powered by a built-in rechargeable battery, which can be charged via an external charging interface.

[0024] Control system: The built-in simple control system manages the switching and light intensity of LED component 3, allowing manual adjustment of brightness.

[0025] The method of using this utility model is as follows:

[0026] Assembly: The traffic cone 1 is easily fixed to the traffic cone base 2 by a snap-fit ​​mechanism, which facilitates quick assembly or disassembly.

[0027] Operation: At night or in low light conditions, turn on the LED light of LED assembly 3 by manually switching it on. When not in use, the LED light can be turned off to save battery power.

[0028] Maintenance: The traffic cone body 1 and traffic cone base 2 are designed for easy cleaning and maintenance, and damaged parts can be quickly replaced. Check the battery regularly and charge it as needed.

[0029] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and novel concept of this utility model, should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
