Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of road control and instruction technology, specifically a traffic control and instruction sign for road tunnel entrances and exits. Background Technology
[0002] Several problems exist with existing traffic control signs at road tunnel entrances and exits that urgently need to be addressed. Firstly, the installation height and angle of these signs are mostly fixed, making it impossible to flexibly adjust them according to actual traffic flow, vehicle type, and weather conditions. This results in situations where drivers cannot clearly see the information on the signs, such as when vehicles are queuing and obstructing visibility, or when inclement weather affects visibility, potentially leading to traffic congestion or even accidents. Secondly, existing signs lack adequate protective measures, and their internal adjustment mechanisms are susceptible to damage from external environmental factors (such as rain, dust, and impacts), reducing their lifespan and maintenance cycle, and increasing management costs. Therefore, a new type of traffic control sign for road tunnel entrances and exits that can flexibly adjust its height and angle while possessing good protective performance is needed to improve the efficiency and safety of traffic control and reduce traffic accidents. Utility Model Content
[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a traffic control sign for road tunnel entrances and exits.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a traffic control sign for a road tunnel entrance / exit, comprising an adjustment assembly, the adjustment assembly comprising a fixed base shell, a first rotating shaft connected to one side of the fixed base shell, a rotating knob provided at one end of the first rotating shaft, a bolt provided on the rotating knob, a first bevel gear connected to the end of the first rotating shaft away from the rotating knob, a second bevel gear provided on one side of the first bevel gear, a second rotating shaft connected to the middle position of the second bevel gear, a first threaded rod connected to the upper end of the second rotating shaft, a threaded sleeve provided on the outer side of the first threaded rod, and a connecting limiting sleeve provided on the outer side of the threaded sleeve.
[0005] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0006] An angle adjustment unit is provided on the upper side of the adjustment component. The angle adjustment unit includes a base plate disposed on a threaded sleeve. A second threaded rod is disposed on the upper side of the base plate. A nut is connected to the outer side of the second threaded rod. A rotating ring is disposed on the upper side of the base plate. An indicator body is connected to the upper side of the rotating ring.
[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0008] A protective cover is hinged to one side of the fixed base shell. The rotating knob and bolt are located on the inner side of the protective cover and on the outer side of the fixed base shell. The bolt is threaded onto the fixed base shell.
[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0010] The first rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the fixed base shell, the first bevel gear is fixedly disposed at one end of the first rotating shaft, and the first bevel gear is meshed with one side of the second bevel gear.
[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0012] The second rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the inner side of the fixed base shell, and the second rotating shaft is fixedly connected through the middle position of the second bevel gear. The threaded sleeve is threadedly connected to the outer side of the first threaded rod, and the threaded sleeve is slidably connected to the inner side of the connecting limiting cylinder.
[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0014] The connecting limiting cylinder is fixedly installed on the upper side of the fixed base shell, the base plate is fixedly installed on the upper end of the threaded sleeve, and the second threaded rod is fixedly installed at the middle position on the upper side of the base plate.

[0016] The nut is threaded to the outside of the second threaded rod, the lower side of the nut is attached to the upper side of the base plate, and the indicator body is fixedly set on the upper side of the rotating ring.
[0017] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0018] 1. By adjusting the bevel gear set and threaded transmission mechanism in the component, the rotational motion of the knob can be efficiently converted into the linear motion of the threaded sleeve, thereby driving the sign body to rise or fall to meet the display needs of different heights. The angle adjustment unit can easily adjust the angle of the sign body through the cooperation of the nut and the second threaded rod, ensuring that traffic participants can clearly obtain the directional information under different lighting and viewing angles.
[0019] 2. The first rotating shaft is made of high-strength alloy steel, combined with precision-cast bevel gears, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the transmission, maintaining good performance even under frequent adjustments. The threaded connection between the threaded sleeve and the first threaded rod, as well as the sliding of the threaded sleeve within the connecting limit sleeve, further improves the accuracy and stability of the adjustment. The base plate is made of high-strength steel plate, and the connecting limit sleeve is made of aluminum alloy, providing stable support and precise guidance for the angle adjustment unit, ensuring the stability of the sign body during installation and adjustment, effectively improving the reliability and safety of the sign in complex traffic environments.

[0033] Specifically, a protective cover 3 is hinged to one side of the fixed base shell 11. The rotating knob 13 and the bolt 14 are located on the inner side of the protective cover 3 and on the outer side of the fixed base shell 11. The bolt 14 is threaded onto the fixed base shell 11.
[0034] In a preferred embodiment, the first rotating shaft 12 is rotatably connected to the fixed base shell 11 and is made of high-strength alloy steel, possessing excellent wear resistance and fatigue resistance. The first bevel gear 15 is fixedly mounted on one end of the first rotating shaft 12 and is manufactured using precision casting technology, possessing high precision and high load-bearing capacity.
[0035] Example 2:
[0036] Specifically, the first rotating shaft 12 is rotatably connected to the fixed base shell 11, the first bevel gear 15 is fixedly disposed at one end of the first rotating shaft 12, and the first bevel gear 15 is meshed with one side of the second bevel gear 16.
[0037] In this embodiment, the rotating knob 13 and the bolt 14 are located inside the protective cover 3. The rotating knob 13 is disc-shaped with anti-slip texture on the surface, and the bolt 14 is a hexagonal bolt.
[0038] Specifically, the second rotating shaft 17 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the fixed base shell 11, the second rotating shaft 17 is fixedly connected through the middle position of the second bevel gear 16, the threaded sleeve 19 is threadedly connected to the outer side of the first threaded rod 18, and the threaded sleeve 19 is slidably connected to the inner side of the connecting limiting sleeve 110.

After adjustment, the bolt 14 can be rotated in the opposite direction to re-thread the bolt 14 onto the fixed base shell 11. By rotating the nut 23, the lower side of the nut 23 is separated from the base plate 21, and the rotating ring 24 can be rotated to rotate outside the second threaded rod 22. At the same time, the position of the indicator body 25 is adjusted. After adjustment, the nut 23 is rotated in the opposite direction to make the nut 23 fit against the upper side of the base plate 21, and the rotating ring 24 is tightened to the upper side of the rotating ring 24.
