Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle barrier technology, specifically a solar-powered luminous sphere that combines aesthetic and warning effects. Background Technology
[0002] Vehicle bollards are traffic safety facilities made of natural stone, primarily used to separate sidewalks from driveways to prevent accidents caused by illegally parked or passing vehicles. Their prototype can be traced back to the "stepping stones" of ancient Rome, evolving into modern, functional, and decorative shapes such as spheres and cylinders. Vehicle bollards are commonly found in parks, residential areas, tourist attractions, and municipal projects. Made from materials such as granite, marble, and bluestone, they are sturdy, durable, and have high compressive strength.
[0003] Most commercially available solar-powered spherical car bumpers are one-piece molded, with a hollow concrete shell as their overall structure. An energy storage device is installed inside the concrete shell to provide energy for the LED beads embedded on the surface of the shell. However, this structure reduces the strength of the concrete shell, and since the concrete and the base are usually molded as one piece, the overall weight is relatively large. When moving them on site, forklifts and other tools are often used, which can easily scratch the surface and affect their appearance. If they are moved manually as a whole, it will require a lot of manpower. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the technical defects of the existing technology, this utility model provides a solar-powered luminous sphere that combines landscape and warning effects.
[0005] The technical solution adopted in this utility model is:
[0006] A solar-powered luminous sphere that combines aesthetic and warning effects includes a luminous sphere body, a luminous component, and an energy-absorbing component. The luminous component is installed inside the luminous sphere body, and the energy-absorbing component is installed below the luminous sphere body.
[0007] The light-emitting component includes a mounting cylinder, which is placed inside the light-emitting sphere body;
[0008] A light source is fixedly installed inside the mounting cylinder;
[0009] A solar panel is placed on the upper surface of the luminous sphere, and a sealing rubber block is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the solar panel. The solar panel and the light source are electrically connected by a wire.
[0010] The outer surface of the mounting cylinder is fixedly inlaid with evenly distributed optical fibers, each with a rubber sleeve on its outer surface. The outer surface of the light-emitting component has multiple evenly distributed optical fibers. Several annular rubber rings are fixedly connected to the outer surface of each optical fiber at a point away from the mounting cylinder. The diameter of the rubber rings is adapted to the size of the through hole.
[0011] Furthermore, the energy-absorbing component includes a base, which is placed below the light-emitting sphere body. An energy-absorbing rubber block is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base, and mounting flanges that are adapted to the position are fixedly connected to the surface of the energy-absorbing rubber block and the bottom surface of the light-emitting sphere body.
[0012] Furthermore, an array of guide plates is fixedly connected to the lower part of the outer surface of the mounting cylinder, and a mounting bracket is fixedly connected to the lower part of the inner ring of the luminous sphere.
[0013] Furthermore, friction strips are provided between the sides of each set of guide plates that are close to each other.
[0014] Furthermore, the friction strip has a triangular cross-sectional shape, and its position is adapted to the position of the mounting bracket.
[0015] Furthermore, the overall shape of the light-emitting sphere is drum-shaped, and the sealing rubber block and the opening on the upper surface of the light-emitting sphere are interference-fitted. Beneficial effects
[0016] 1. When using the device as a whole, the components can be moved in batches. First, move the base to the ground, ensuring the base, energy-absorbing rubber block, and mounting flange are level. Then, align the mounting flange on the bottom of the light-emitting sphere with the mounting flange on the surface of the energy-absorbing rubber block, and secure them firmly with screws. Next, insert the mounting cylinder, along with its internal light source, into the light-emitting sphere through the opening on its upper surface. Align each guide plate with the mounting frame and insert it firmly into the lower part of the mounting frame. The friction strips increase the friction between the guide plates and the mounting frame, ensuring the mounting cylinder is securely inside the light-emitting sphere. Then, manually insert the optical fibers into the through holes on the surface of the light-emitting sphere. Finally, connect the solar panel's wires to the light source. Next, fully insert the sealing rubber block into the opening on the surface of the light-emitting sphere. The interference fit between the sealing rubber block and the opening on the surface of the light-emitting sphere seals the top of the sphere. At this time, the solar panel absorbs solar energy during the day to store energy in the built-in battery of the light source. At night, the surface of the light source emits light, and the light transmission characteristics of the optical fiber allow the surface of the light-emitting sphere to emit light.
[0017] By setting up a light-emitting component, energy can be provided for the surface of the light-emitting sphere to emit light at night. Furthermore, during use, if rain occurs, water can enter the interior of the light-emitting sphere and damage its internal electrical components.
[0018] 2. When the device is in use, collisions are inevitable. By adding a toughening agent during the production of the light-emitting ball, the light-emitting ball will not be fragile when subjected to impact. Moreover, when the light-emitting ball is subjected to impact, the energy-absorbing rubber block can generate damping through deformation, which can absorb part of the impact force.
[0019] By incorporating energy-absorbing components, the luminous sphere becomes more robust and durable. Furthermore, by separating the base from the luminous sphere itself, the luminous sphere and base become easier and less labor-intensive to transport, handle, or install. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:
[0028] like Figure 1-6 As shown:
[0029] Example 1: This example provides a solar-powered luminous sphere that combines landscaping and warning effects. It includes a luminous sphere body 3 and a luminous component 1. The luminous component 1 is installed inside the luminous sphere body 3. The luminous component 1 includes a mounting cylinder 4, which is placed inside the luminous sphere body 3. A light source 5 is fixedly installed inside the mounting cylinder 4. A solar panel 8 is placed on the upper surface of the luminous sphere body 3. A sealing rubber block 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the solar panel 8. The solar panel 8 and the light source 5 are electrically connected by wires. An evenly distributed optical fiber 6 with a rubber sleeve is fixedly embedded on the outer surface of the mounting cylinder 4. Multiple evenly distributed optical fibers 6 are opened on the outer surface of the luminous component 1. Several annular rubber rings 16 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of each optical fiber 6 away from the mounting cylinder 4. The diameter of the rubber rings 16 is adapted to the size of the through hole 7. A toughness-enhancing agent is added inside the luminous sphere body 3 during production and casting.
[0030] An array of guide plates 11 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the outer surface of the mounting cylinder 4, and a mounting bracket 10 is fixedly connected to the lower part of the inner ring of the light-emitting ball body 3. The position of the friction rubber strip 12 is adapted to the position of the mounting bracket 10.
[0031] Each guide plate 11 has a friction strip 12 between its close sides, and the cross-sectional shape of the friction strip 12 is triangular.
[0032] The overall shape of the light-emitting ball body 3 is drum-shaped, and the sealing rubber block 9 and the opening on the upper surface of the light-emitting ball body 3 are interference fit.
[0033] When using the device as a whole, the components can be moved in batches. First, move the base 13 to the ground. The base 13, energy-absorbing rubber block 14, and mounting flange 15 are now horizontal. Then, install the mounting flange 15 on the bottom of the light-emitting ball body 3 corresponding to the mounting flange 15 on the surface of the energy-absorbing rubber block 14. Then, use screws to firmly fix the two mounting flanges 15. Next, insert the mounting cylinder 4, along with its internal light source 5, into the interior of the light-emitting ball body 3 through the opening on the upper surface of the light-emitting ball body 3. At this time, the guide plates 11 and the mounting bracket 10 are aligned... At this point, the mounting cylinder 4 can be forcefully inserted below the surface of the mounting bracket 10. The friction strip 12 increases the friction between the guide plate 11 and the mounting bracket 10, ensuring the mounting cylinder 4 is firmly positioned inside the light-emitting sphere body 3. Next, the operator manually inserts the optical fibers 6 into the through holes 7 on the surface of the light-emitting sphere body 3. Finally, the wires of the solar panel 8 are electrically connected to the light source 5. Then, the sealing rubber block 9 is fully inserted into the opening on the surface of the light-emitting sphere body 3. The interference fit between the sealing rubber block 9 and the opening on the surface of the light-emitting sphere body 3 achieves a sealing effect on the top of the light-emitting sphere body 3. During the day, the solar panel 8 absorbs solar energy to store energy in the battery built into the light source 5. At night, the light emitted from the surface of the light source 5, combined with the light transmission characteristics of the optical fiber 6, allows the surface of the light-emitting sphere body 3 to emit light.
[0034] By setting the light-emitting component 1, energy can be provided for the surface of the light-emitting ball 3 to emit light at night. In addition, during use, when it rains, water can enter the interior of the light-emitting ball 3 and damage the internal electrical components.
[0035] Example 2: The energy-absorbing component 2 is installed below the light-emitting ball body 3. The energy-absorbing component 2 includes a base 13, which is placed below the light-emitting ball body 3. An energy-absorbing rubber block 14 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the base 13. The surface of the energy-absorbing rubber block 14 and the bottom surface of the light-emitting ball body 3 are both fixedly connected with mounting flanges 15 that are adapted to the position.
[0036] When the device is in use, collisions are inevitable. By adding a toughening agent during the production of the light-emitting ball body 3, the light-emitting ball body 3 will not be fragile when subjected to impact. Moreover, when the light-emitting ball body 3 is subjected to impact, the energy-absorbing rubber block 14 can generate damping through deformation, which can absorb part of the impact force.
[0037] By setting the energy-absorbing component 2, the light-emitting ball can be made more robust and durable. Furthermore, by separating the base 13 from the light-emitting ball body 3, the light-emitting ball body 3 and the base 13 can be transported, handled, or installed more easily and effortlessly.
