Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of road warning, specifically a warning device for municipal roads. Background Technology

[0002] In modern urban construction, the safety management of municipal roads is of paramount importance. Various road conditions, such as construction and maintenance, require the use of warning devices to ensure the safety of pedestrians and vehicles; warning devices can promptly remind passersby to pay attention to road conditions and avoid accidents.

[0003] Among existing warning devices for municipal roads, warning cones are a common tool. Traditional warning cones are usually hollow with an opening at the bottom to reduce their overall weight. Their main function is to attract people's attention through their color and shape. When used normally, they have a good warning effect and are easy to move.

[0004] Because traditional warning cones are hollow and relatively lightweight, they are easily blown over or displaced in windy weather or by airflow from vehicles. Once blown over, their warning effect is greatly reduced, making them unable to effectively provide warning information to pedestrians and vehicles, thus increasing road safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0005] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a warning device for municipal roads to solve the technical problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a warning device for municipal roads, comprising a warning cone, wherein the interior of the warning cone is hollowed out;

[0007] The warning cone has a feed inlet at the top and a support column that is attached to the bottom opening of the feed inlet inside the warning cone. The support column has a through hole at the top corresponding to the feed inlet and a material distribution groove that communicates with the through hole on the side wall of the support column.

[0008] A push-type discharge valve is installed on the bottom side wall of the warning cone;

[0009] A sealing plug is detachably installed inside the feed inlet, and a lifting mechanism is provided on the top of the sealing plug;

[0010] The bottom of the warning cone is provided with a through groove for removing the support column, and a base corresponding to the support column can be detachably installed in the through groove.

[0011] Multiple sets of reflective strips are fixedly installed on the warning cone.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, the warning cone has a hollow design inside, which provides space for adding water through the feed port to increase weight. At the same time, it reduces the weight of the warning cone itself, making it easier to transport and store. This design makes the warning cone more portable when no water is added, while it can increase stability by adding water when needed, effectively solving the problem that traditional warning cones are easily blown over in windy weather.

[0013] Furthermore, multiple sets of reflective strips are installed at equal intervals on the outer wall of the warning cone, and all reflective strips on the outer wall of the warning cone are embedded.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, light can be reflected from different angles and under different lighting conditions, improving the visibility of the warning cones and enhancing their warning effect. Whether it is day or night, pedestrians and vehicles can more easily notice the warning cones, thus reacting in time and avoiding accidents.

[0015] Furthermore, multiple sets of reflective strips are symmetrically installed at the bottom of the warning cone, and the bottom of the warning cone is also provided with mounting grooves corresponding to the reflective strips, and the plane of the reflective strips in the mounting grooves is higher than the plane of the bottom of the warning cone.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, even if the warning cone is knocked over, the reflective strip at the bottom can still function and continue to provide warning information to pedestrians and vehicles, further improving the reliability and safety of the warning device.

[0017] Furthermore, the inner wall of the bottom of the warning cone is inclined towards the push-type discharge valve, and the center point of the push-type discharge valve is located below the plane of the inner wall of the bottom of the warning cone. The push-type discharge valve is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the bottom of the warning cone, and a sealing structure is provided at the connection position.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, water can be discharged more smoothly through the push-button discharge valve during drainage, reducing water residue in the warning cone, facilitating cleaning and maintenance after use, and also quickly reducing the weight of the warning cone, making it easier to move and store.

[0019] Furthermore, the base is threadedly connected to the through groove, and the base has a U-shaped cross-section, with the top of the base wrapping around the bottom of the support column.

[0020] By adopting the above technical solution, on the one hand, the connection between the base and the warning cone is guaranteed to be firm, preventing the base from loosening or falling off during use; on the other hand, the U-shaped design can better support the warning cone and improve its overall stability. In addition, this connection method facilitates the disassembly and installation of the base and makes it convenient to maintain and replace internal components such as the support column.

[0021] Furthermore, multiple sets of positioning blocks are installed at equal angles on the bottom sidewall of the sealing plug, and a positioning groove corresponding to the positioning block is opened on the top of the warning cone. When the positioning block is located in the positioning groove, the position of the sealing plug is fixed.

[0022] By adopting the above technical solution, the sealing plug can be accurately fixed in position after installation, ensuring the sealing performance of the feed inlet. The good sealing performance can prevent water leakage after addition, ensure the normal use of the warning cone weight adjustment function, and also avoid water leakage from affecting the surrounding environment.

[0023] Furthermore, the top of the warning cone is provided with a removable groove that communicates with the sealing plug, and the position of the removable groove is offset from the position of the positioning block when it is located in the positioning groove.

[0024] By adopting the above technical solution, when it is necessary to disassemble the sealing plug, the user can operate more conveniently through the easy-disassembly slot without the need for other tools, which improves the convenience and efficiency of the operation.

[0025] Furthermore, the lifting mechanism is a handle that is fixedly connected to the top of the sealing plug.

[0026] By adopting the above technical solution and with the handle, users can easily rotate the sealing plug and also easily lift the warning cone away using the handle.

[0027] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0028] This invention, through its adjustable weight design, effectively improves the stability of warning cones in adverse weather or complex environments, reducing the likelihood of them being blown over or displaced, and ensuring the continuity of the warning effect. Furthermore, the water filling and drainage operations of this warning cone are simple and convenient, allowing for quick weight adjustment according to actual needs, facilitating installation and relocation. All components of this warning cone are detachable; even if the outer shell is damaged, the internal parts can still be recycled and reused, reducing operating costs. The multiple reflective strips and the design that allows it to remain reflective even when pushed over further enhance the warning effect and improve road safety. Attached Figure Description

[0035] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0036] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0037] This utility model provides a warning device for municipal roads, mainly to solve the problem that existing warning cones for municipal roads are easily blown over or moved under the influence of windy weather or airflow generated by vehicles, resulting in poor warning effect.

[0038] A warning device for municipal roads, such as Figure 1 - Figure 5 As shown, the warning device is mainly composed of a warning cone 1. The interior of the warning cone 1 is hollowed out, and the inlet 102 is only opened at the top of the warning cone 1.

[0039] The inlet 102 is used to add water or other weighting substances into the warning cone 1. A support column 2 is installed inside the warning cone 1, which is attached to the bottom opening of the inlet 102. The top of the support column 2 is provided with a through hole 3 corresponding to the inlet 102. When water is added from the inlet 102, the water can enter the interior of the support column 2 through the through hole 3. A distribution groove 4 connected to the through hole 3 is provided on the side wall of the support column 2. When water is added, the water is evenly distributed in the warning cone 1 through the through hole 3 and the distribution groove 4 of the support column 2, thereby increasing the weight of the warning cone 1. The amount of water added can be controlled to adjust the weight of the warning cone 1 according to actual needs, so as to adapt to different environments and wind conditions. For example, in areas with more windy weather, more water can be added appropriately to improve the stability of the warning cone 1.

[0040] In actual implementation, the support column 2 is first installed through the through groove at the bottom of the warning cone 1 to ensure that the support column 2 fits tightly with the bottom opening of the feed inlet 102.

[0041] In this embodiment, a push-type discharge valve 6 is installed on the bottom side wall of the warning cone 1 to discharge water from the warning cone 1. After the road construction is completed, the water will be discharged from the warning cone 1 under the action of gravity by pressing the push-type discharge valve 6.

[0042] For example, a sealing plug 7 is detachably installed in the feed inlet 102. The top of the sealing plug 7 is provided with a lifting mechanism, which makes it convenient for the user to remove and install the sealing plug 7 from the feed inlet 102. When installing the sealing plug 7, align the sealing plug 7 with the feed inlet 102 and press it firmly so that it is fully inserted into the feed inlet 102. At this time, the positioning block 8 will enter the positioning groove 81 to fix the sealing plug 7.

[0043] Specifically, the sealing plug 7 and the feed inlet 102 work together to seal the container. Multiple sets of positioning blocks 8 are installed at equal angles on the bottom side wall of the sealing plug 7. The top of the warning cone 1 is provided with a positioning groove 81 corresponding to the positioning block 8. When the positioning block 8 enters the positioning groove 81, the position of the sealing plug 7 is fixed to ensure the sealing of the feed inlet 102 and prevent water leakage.

[0044] In this embodiment, the bottom of the warning cone 1 is provided with a through groove for removing the support column 2. A base 5 corresponding to the support column 2 can be detachably installed in the through groove. The base 5 is threadedly connected to the through groove. When installing the base 5, align the base 5 with the through groove and rotate the base 5 clockwise to make it tightly connected to the through groove, which plays a role in stabilizing and supporting the warning cone 1. The base 5 has a U-shaped cross section and the top wraps around the bottom of the support column 2, which further enhances the stability of the support.

[0045] The base 5 not only supports the warning cone 1, but also facilitates the disassembly and installation of the support column 2. When it is necessary to maintain or replace the support column 2 or other internal components, the base 5 is first rotated counterclockwise to unscrew it, and then the support column 2 can be taken out from the through groove. At the same time, a cross groove 51 is provided at the bottom of the base 5, so that the user can use a screwdriver to remove the base 5.

[0046] It should be emphasized that in this embodiment, multiple sets of reflective strips 101 are fixedly installed on the warning cone 1. These reflective strips 101 are also installed at equal intervals on the outer wall of the warning cone 1, and are embedded for added stability. Furthermore, multiple sets of reflective strips 101 are symmetrically installed at the bottom of the warning cone 1, with the plane of the bottom reflective strips 101 being higher than the plane of the bottom of the warning cone 1. This ensures that even if the warning cone 1 is knocked over, the bottom reflective strips 101 can still provide a good reflective warning effect. The design of the reflective strips 101 improves the visibility of the warning cone 1 at night or in low-light conditions. The reasonable distribution of multiple sets of reflective strips 101 makes the warning cone 1 easily visible from any direction, further enhancing the warning effect.

[0047] In summary, through the above structural design, this utility model achieves adjustable weight of the warning cone 1, improves its stability, and also has good sealing performance, facilitates maintenance and replacement of parts, and provides excellent warning effect.

[0048] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When potholes appear on the surface of municipal roads and it is necessary to use this warning cone 1, firstly, turn the handle 9 to remove the sealing plug 7 from the feed inlet 102. Then, add water to the warning cone 1 through the feed inlet 102 to increase the weight of the warning cone 1, thereby reducing the probability of it tipping over due to wind and airflow generated during vehicle movement. After adding water, the sealing plug 7 can be reinstalled into the feed inlet 102 to seal the feed inlet 102.

[0049] In actual use, even if the warning cone 1 is pushed over, the reflective strip 101 at its bottom will still reflect light and serve as a warning.

[0050] After the road construction is completed, by pressing the push-type discharge valve 6 installed on the bottom side wall of the warning cone 1, the water inside the warning cone 1 will be discharged through the push-type discharge valve 6 because the bottom inner wall of the warning cone 1 is inclined towards the push-type discharge valve 6, thereby reducing the weight of the warning cone 1 and making it easier for users to move it away.

[0051] Even if the warning cone 1 is damaged, the sealing plug 7 can still be removed and used on other warning cones 1. At the same time, the base 5 can be removed and the support column 2 can be taken out. The push-type discharge valve 6 can also be removed, so that even if the outer shell of the warning cone 1 is damaged, the remaining parts inside the warning cone 1 can be recycled and reused.

[0052] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, these specific embodiments are merely explanations of the present invention and are not intended to limit the invention. The specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make modifications, substitutions, and variations to the embodiments as needed without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, provided that such modifications, substitutions, and variations are within the scope of the claims of the present invention and are protected by patent law.
