Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of signal flashlight technology, specifically a railway-specific signal flashlight. Background Technology
[0002] A signal flashlight is a specially designed flashlight primarily used to provide signal indication and safety warnings in various scenarios. In railways, shipping, and transportation, signal flashlights are widely used in flood control and disaster relief, rainy and foggy weather, and accident scene command as tools for signal indication and safety warnings.
[0003] Existing railway signal flashlights, due to their simple overall structure, while capable of transmitting signals, are often left idle after use. Railway workers typically place them vertically or horizontally on a table. Vertical placement increases the risk of tipping over, while horizontal placement, lacking any safety features, makes them prone to slipping off the table. Both scenarios result in the flashlight falling, causing damage, and potentially shortening its lifespan. Therefore, this application proposes a railway signal flashlight to address these problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a railway-specific signal flashlight, which solves the problem mentioned in the background art. When not in use, this technical solution can be placed flat on a table to provide a blocking measure to prevent it from slipping off the table and causing damage.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a railway-specific signal flashlight, comprising a handheld part, a mounting base inserted into the top of the handheld part, a switch provided on the mounting base, a lamp head mounted on the top of the mounting base, and a storage battery mounted on the bottom of the mounting base, a threaded cover threadedly connected to the bottom of the handheld part, the top of the threaded cover extending into the inner cavity of the handheld part and fitting against the bottom of the storage battery, and a base fixedly mounted on the bottom of the threaded cover, the base being hollow, and a support component provided within the inner cavity of the base.
[0006] Preferably, the support assembly includes a base block, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the threaded cover, and a circular block is movably installed on the bottom of the base block. Two side grooves are formed on the outer wall of the circular block, and springs are fixedly installed on the inner walls of the two side grooves. A circular rod is fixedly installed on one end of the spring. Two circular holes are formed on the outer wall of the base, and the end of the circular rod away from the spring passes through the circular hole and extends to the outside of the base.
[0007] Preferably, a round shaft is fixedly connected to the bottom of the threaded cap, and the bottom end of the round shaft passes through the round block and is rotatably connected to the round block.
[0008] Preferably, the outer wall of the threaded cap is provided with multiple anti-slip grooves, and the multiple anti-slip grooves are evenly distributed.
[0009] Preferably, the top of the battery is provided with a plurality of second contact pieces, and the bottom of the mounting base is provided with a plurality of first contact pieces, and the plurality of first contact pieces are respectively attached to the corresponding second contact pieces.
[0010] Preferably, the outer side of the handheld part has multiple sets of anti-slip grilles.
[0011] Preferably, the outer diameter of the round rod is smaller than the inner diameter of the round hole.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] Equipped with round rods, round holes, and springs, the system allows for easy placement on a table after use. Rotating the round block causes the two round rods on it to rotate synchronously. When the rotating rods align with the round holes, the springs force them through the holes and extend to the outside of the base. Placing the entire flashlight on the table then provides lateral support when it rolls, preventing it from slipping directly from the table to the ground and causing damage. This effectively improves safety and extends the flashlight's lifespan. Attached Figure Description

[0020] 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.
[0021] Please see Figures 1 to 5 This utility model provides a technical solution: a railway-specific signal flashlight, including a handheld part 1, a mounting base 3 inserted into the top of the handheld part 1, a switch 4 provided on the mounting base 3, a lamp head 5 installed on the top of the mounting base 3, and a storage battery 7 installed at the bottom of the mounting base 3. The storage battery 7 supplies power to the lamp head 5, which can be controlled to open and close by the switch 4. The lamp head 5 emits light to transmit signals. A threaded cover 9 is threadedly connected to the bottom of the handheld part 1. The top of the threaded cover 9 extends into the inner cavity of the handheld part 1 and fits against the bottom of the storage battery 7. A base 11 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the threaded cover 9. The base 11 is hollow and has a support component inside the cavity of the base 11.
[0022] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The support assembly includes a base block 13, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the threaded cover 9. A circular block 14 is movably installed on the bottom of the base block 13. Two side grooves 16 are opened on the outer wall of the circular block 14. Springs 17 are fixedly installed on the inner walls of the two side grooves 16. A circular rod 18 is fixedly installed on one end of the spring 17. Two circular holes 12 are opened on the outer wall of the base 11. The end of the circular rod 18 away from the spring 17 passes through the circular hole 12 and extends to the outside of the base 11. By using the support assembly, the signal flashlight can be supported when it is placed on the table, preventing the signal flashlight from rolling on the table and falling off the table, which could cause it to break.
[0023] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The bottom of the threaded cap 9 is fixedly connected to a round shaft 15. The bottom end of the round shaft 15 passes through the round block 14 and is rotatably connected to the round block 14. This setting allows the round block 14 to move in a circle around the round shaft 15, thereby driving the round rod 18 and other components to rotate inside the base 11. This allows the outer end of the round rod 18 to contact the inner wall of the base 11, preventing the round rod 18 from extending to the outside. When the round rod 18 needs to extend out for support, it can be rotated to be opposite to the round hole 12, making the operation convenient.
[0024] Please see Figure 4Multiple anti-slip grooves 10 are provided on the outer wall of the threaded cover 9. The multiple anti-slip grooves 10 are evenly distributed. The arrangement of multiple anti-slip grooves 10 can increase the friction between the fingers and the threaded cover 9, making it easier to remove the threaded cover 9 and then remove and replace the battery 7.
[0025] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 The top of the battery 7 is equipped with multiple contact pieces 2 8, and the bottom of the mounting base 3 is equipped with multiple contact pieces 1 6. The multiple contact pieces 1 6 are respectively attached to the corresponding contact pieces 2 8. By attaching the contact pieces 1 6 to the contact pieces 2 8, the battery 7 and the lamp head 5 are powered on, so that the lamp head 5 can successfully send out a signal.
[0026] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 Multiple anti-slip grilles 2 are provided on the outer side of the handheld part 1. The anti-slip grilles 2 increase the friction between the palm of the operator and the outer wall of the handheld part 1, thereby improving the stability of subsequent use.
[0027] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The outer diameter of the round rod 18 is set to be smaller than the inner diameter of the round hole 12. This setting allows the round rod 18 to pass smoothly through the round hole 12 for subsequent support work.
[0028] Working principle: When using this application, the operator can hold the handle 1 and use the anti-slip grille 2 on the outside of the handle 1 to increase friction and improve stability. When a signal needs to be sent, the switch 4 can be pressed and the frequency of light emitted by the lamp head 5 can be controlled to achieve the purpose of sending a signal. After use, when it needs to be idle and placed on the table, the round block 14 can be rotated, so that the round block 14 drives the two round rods 18 on it to rotate synchronously. When the round rods 18 rotate and are opposite to the round hole 12, the round rods 18 will be subjected to the elastic force of the corresponding spring 17 and pass through the round hole 12, extending to the outside of the base 11. Then, the entire signal flashlight is placed on the table. When the signal flashlight rolls, the two round rods 18 can provide support on both sides, preventing the signal flashlight from sliding directly from the table to the ground and causing damage, effectively improving safety performance and ensuring service life.
[0029] 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.
