Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traffic signal technology, specifically a traffic signal that can be remotely controlled. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of urban roads and the increase in vehicles, vehicles need orderly guidance to facilitate their movement through intersections. This led to the development of traffic lights to enhance road traffic management, reduce traffic accidents, and improve road efficiency. They are widely used at intersections such as crossroads and T-junctions. However, during use, traffic lights may malfunction and stop working due to rain, road construction, or other reasons. In such cases, temporary traffic lights are needed to guide traffic flow. However, these temporary traffic lights cannot be adjusted in a timely manner and require traffic police to arrive at the lights for adjustments. Adjustments also require crossing the road and cannot be made in a timely manner based on traffic volume. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a traffic light that can be remotely controlled, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that traffic lights cannot be adjusted in a timely manner and that the adjustment is relatively dangerous.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a remotely controllable traffic signal light, comprising a housing, the housing being a frustum-shaped design, with solar panels uniformly fixedly installed on the outer surface of the housing, universal casters fixedly installed on the side surface of the housing away from the solar panels, and the universal casters located around the perimeter of the housing, a signal light assembly being provided on one side of the housing, a handle being fixedly provided on one end of the housing, and an energy storage control mechanism being provided on the outer surface of the housing, through which the signal light assembly can operate even when powered off and can be connected to a traffic signal central control system.

[0005] Preferably, the energy storage control mechanism includes: a control board networking component, which is fixedly installed inside the housing, and a battery is placed on the side surface of the housing away from the control board networking component. The battery is connected to the solar panel and the control board networking component, and an inspection port is provided on the side of the housing near the battery.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the electricity generated by the solar panel can be stored in the battery, and the maintenance port on one side of the box can facilitate the replacement of the battery after long-term use. The electricity is transmitted to the control board network component, which can exchange data with the traffic signal central control system, allowing the traffic light components to adjust themselves and reducing the danger caused by traffic police having to go to the traffic light to adjust the crossing of the road.

[0007] Preferably, the housing is provided with a threaded engagement mechanism, which allows the signal light assembly to rise so that more vehicles behind can see the signal light assembly.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the height of the traffic light assembly can be increased so that more vehicles behind can see the signal, reducing the probability of traffic accidents caused by not being able to see the traffic light.

[0009] Preferably, the threaded engagement mechanism includes: a motor screw, which is fixedly installed inside the housing, and the housing and the output end of the motor screw are rotatably connected; a worm gear screw is rotatably installed on the outer surface of the housing, and the worm gear screw meshes with the output end of the motor screw; the worm gear screw is threadedly connected to the signal light assembly, and the signal light assembly and the worm gear screw are concentrically designed; a guide rod is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the signal light assembly, and the guide rod is slidably connected to the housing.

[0010] Using the above technical solution, the rotation of the motor screw will drive the worm gear screw to rotate, enabling the worm gear screw to lift the signal light assembly. The guide rod allows the signal light assembly to rise stably, and the self-locking property of the motor screw and the worm gear screw prevents the signal light assembly from falling automatically, reducing the danger caused by the signal light assembly falling due to power failure.

[0011] Preferably, a shield is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the signal light assembly, and the shield is designed to be inclined. A reflective film is fixedly installed on the inner side of the shield. A dust cover assembly is provided between the housing and the signal light assembly, and the outer surface of the dust cover assembly is tightly fitted to the outer surfaces of the housing and the signal light assembly, respectively.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the tilted design of the shield allows rainwater to flow out along the tilted surface when it rains, while the reflective film installed inside the shield can reflect the light of the signal light assembly, making the vehicle more visible. In addition, the dust cover assembly can prevent external dust and rainwater from entering the connection between the box and the signal light assembly.

[0013] Preferably, the box is equipped with a double gear that rotates inside, and a sliding engagement mechanism is provided between the double gear and the box. The sliding engagement mechanism enables the box to have better stability after the signal light assembly is raised, reducing the probability of the box falling over.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, when the rack and pinion locking rod is pulled out, it can drive the double gears to rotate, so that the rack and pinion locking rod can be fully moved out, making it convenient to release the support rod and support the box.

[0015] Preferably, the sliding engagement mechanism includes: a rack and pinion locking rod, which is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the housing; one end of the double gear is located on the outside of the housing; an elastic stop rod is rotatably mounted on the outer surface of the housing; one end of the elastic stop rod meshes with the outer surface of the double gear; the rack and pinion locking rod meshes with the double gear; the double gear and the signal light assembly are concentrically designed; a support rod is engaged at the end of the rack and pinion locking rod located outside the housing; the support rod and the rack and pinion locking rod are slidably connected; and the outer surface of the support rod is in contact with the ground.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, the elastic stop rod can be engaged with the double gear through the thrust of the elastic stop rod, so that the rack locking rod will not slide outward due to vibration during the movement of the box, thus improving the safety of the box during movement.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: the remotely controllable traffic light:

[0018] 1. When in use, the solar panel converts light energy into electrical energy and stores it in the battery. When it is necessary to change the changing pattern of the traffic light components, the signal lighting pattern can be changed simply by receiving the signal from the traffic signal control system through the network component of the control board. This allows traffic police to easily adjust the traffic lights without crossing the road. The traffic signal control system can be adjusted in a timely manner according to traffic flow, which can also improve safety.

[0019] 2. When reaching the middle of the road, simply start the motor screw to engage with the worm gear screw, allowing the worm gear screw to rotate and push the signal light assembly to rise. This allows the signal light assembly to rise along the guide rod, making it higher than the first vehicle, so that vehicles behind can see the lights of the signal light assembly, improving the visibility of the signal light assembly and reducing the occurrence of traffic accidents.

[0020] 3. The elastic stop rod engages and locks the double gears, preventing them from slipping out of the housing during movement. When the rack locking rod is pulled out, the rotation of the double gears allows it to move out as well. The elastic stop rod then engages with the double gears to secure the rack locking rod, allowing the support rod to be released and fixed. This increases the housing's support area, reduces the likelihood of the signal light falling over after the assembly is raised, and improves safety during housing movement.

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] Please see Figure 1-6 This utility model provides a technical solution: a remotely controllable traffic signal light, including a housing 1, the housing 1 being a frustum-shaped design, and solar panels 2 being uniformly fixedly installed on the outer surface of the housing 1. Universal casters 3 are fixedly installed on the side surface of the housing 1 away from the solar panels 2, and the universal casters 3 are located around the housing 1. A signal light assembly 7 is provided on one side of the housing 1, and a handle is fixedly provided on one end of the housing 1. An energy storage control mechanism is provided on the outer surface of the housing 1, through which the signal light assembly 7 can operate when power is off and can be connected to the traffic signal central control system.

[0030] The cone-shaped design of the housing 1 can guide rainwater and allow the solar panel 2 to better receive sunlight. The universal casters 3 and handles make it easy to move and leverage the housing 1.

[0031] The energy storage control mechanism includes: a control board networking component 4, which is fixedly installed inside the housing 1. A battery 11 is placed on the side surface of the housing 1 away from the control board networking component 4. The battery 11 is connected to the solar panel 2 and the control board networking component 4. An inspection port is provided on the side of the housing 1 near the battery 11.

[0032] When in use, the solar panel 2 can convert light energy into electrical energy and store it inside the battery 11 to provide power to the control board networking component 4 and the traffic light component 7. When the light of the traffic light component 7 needs to be adjusted, the control board networking component 4 can adjust and change the traffic light component 7 through the traffic signal central control system, so that the adjustment and change can be made in time without having to cross the road to reach the traffic light.

[0033] The housing 1 is equipped with a threaded engagement mechanism, which allows the signal light assembly 7 to rise, making it visible to more vehicles behind. The threaded engagement mechanism includes: a motor screw 5, which is fixedly installed inside the housing 1 and is rotatably connected to the output end of the motor screw 5; a worm gear screw 6 is rotatably installed on the outer surface of the housing 1 and engages with the output end of the motor screw 5; the worm gear screw 6 is threadedly connected to the signal light assembly 7 and the signal light assembly 7 and the worm gear screw 6 are concentrically designed; and a guide rod 8 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the signal light assembly 7 and is slidably connected to the housing 1.

[0034] After the traffic light is transported to the center of the road and fixed in place, the motor screw 5 is started to drive the worm gear screw 6 to rotate. The worm gear screw 6 then pushes the traffic light assembly 7 to move, allowing the traffic light assembly 7 to rise along the guide rod 8. This raises the traffic light assembly 7 to a certain height, making the light indicators visible to vehicles behind. The self-locking mechanism of the motor screw 5 and the worm gear screw 6 prevents the traffic light assembly 7 from automatically descending due to a power outage, thus increasing the height and visibility of the traffic light assembly 7 and reducing the chance of accidents.

[0035] A shield 9 is fixedly installed on the outer surface of the signal light assembly 7, and the shield 9 is designed to be inclined. A reflective film 10 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the shield 9. A dust cover assembly 12 is provided between the housing 1 and the signal light assembly 7, and the outer surface of the dust cover assembly 12 is tightly attached to the outer surface of the housing 1 and the signal light assembly 7 respectively.

[0036] The signal light assembly 7 can be protected by the shield 9, reducing the amount of rainwater entering the interior of the signal light assembly 7. The light from the signal light assembly 7 can also be reflected by the reflective film 10, making the light more clearly visible to the driver. At the same time, the dust cover assembly 12 can reduce the chance of external dust and rainwater entering the worm gear screw 6 and guide rod 8, reducing the wear of the worm gear screw 6 and guide rod 8, and reducing the chance of rainwater entering the housing 1 and causing malfunctions.

[0037] The box 1 is equipped with a double gear 13 that rotates inside, and a sliding engagement mechanism is provided between the double gear 13 and the box 1. The sliding engagement mechanism enables the box 1 to have better stability after the signal light assembly 7 is raised, reducing the probability of the box 1 falling over.

[0038] Once the location is reached, pull the rack and pinion locking lever 15 on one side. The movement of the rack and pinion locking lever 15 will drive the double gear 13 to rotate, so that the double gear 13 can drive the rack and pinion locking lever 15 to extend out of the housing 1 without having to pull them out one by one. Then the support rod 16 can be released and fixed, so that the housing 1 can be more stable after the signal light assembly 7 is raised, reducing the risk of the signal light falling over and being damaged.

[0039] The sliding engagement mechanism includes: a rack and pinion locking rod 15, which is slidably mounted on the outer surface of the housing 1; one end of a double gear 13 is located on the outside of the housing 1; an elastic stop rod 14 is rotatably mounted on the outer surface of the housing 1; one end of the elastic stop rod 14 meshes with the outer surface of the double gear 13; the rack and pinion locking rod 15 meshes with the double gear 13; the double gear 13 and the signal light assembly 7 are concentrically designed; a support rod 16 is engaged at the end of the rack and pinion locking rod 15 located outside the housing 1; the support rod 16 and the rack and pinion locking rod 15 are slidably connected; and the outer surface of the support rod 16 is in contact with the ground.

[0040] By engaging the elastic stop rod 14 with the double gear 13, the probability of the rack locking rod 15 sliding out of the housing 1 after the housing 1 moves can be prevented. This allows the elastic stop rod 14 to lock the double gear 13, preventing the rack locking rod 15 from automatically sliding out during movement and improving the safety of the housing 1 during movement.

[0041] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
