[0027] In practical use, the battery pack 3 is connected to the power supply to be energized. The device is then buried below the road surface, and underground wiring is laid out. The underground wiring layout can refer to the underground wiring layout of existing traffic lights. When burying the device, it should be ensured that the transparent cover 11 after assembly is flush with the road surface and does not affect the normal driving of vehicles. In the design of this application, the transparent cover 11 is flush with the top of the mounting bucket 1 after installation, and all bolts used in assembling this application are countersunk bolts.

[0028] Furthermore, the LED light group 6 of this lamp has three light colors: red, green, and yellow, and three working states: off, constant on, and flashing. Circuit board 4 integrates a single-lamp fault detection component, a temperature detection component, a wireless mesh component, and an on / off control component. This lamp is placed on the center line of a single lane within a section of road, with two lamps spaced 5-10 meters apart. The lamp groups within the lane are used as a system. The lamps within the lane are controlled by the traffic control center via control lines through a traffic signal box (connecting to the corresponding traffic control center is an existing technology and will not be elaborated further). Specific operation is as follows:

[0029] 1. Lay the road within the city limits and pave the way in advance.

[0030] When a user enters the target vehicle's license plate number and destination location in the control center, the system receives real-time location information uploaded by the locator on the target vehicle and immediately begins route planning for the destination and vehicle location. During route planning, the system automatically counts vehicles in each road segment using existing traffic cameras and calculates the congestion level based on the ratio of the number of vehicles to the number of lanes. Based on the congestion level, the system selects the smoothest route as the guiding route and begins clearing the road ahead.

[0031] The command center transmits the road opening information in real time. The signal is first transmitted to the road segment signal box through the existing traffic signal line technology, and then the signal box automatically controls the lights in the road segment. At the same time, it can also realize the remote shutdown of other intersections by manual operation.

[0032] When wired transmission is blocked or other situations prevent the signal from being effectively transmitted, the Mesh network on the circuit board can be used to achieve remote control via cell tower.

[0033] When entering a tunnel or other situations that may obstruct the transmission of vehicle location information, the system will activate an inertial algorithm to use the vehicle's last uploaded speed information as the simulated speed, and simulate the vehicle continuing to travel at this speed.

[0034] Within 0-1000m ahead of the target vehicle, the lights in the lane are constantly red. These lights will form a red light strip along the center line of the road in the line of sight of other drivers in the section of road, which has a significant warning effect and indicates that the lane is not open to other vehicles.

[0035] The inner lane lights 1000-3000m ahead will be flashing yellow. These lights will form a flashing yellow strip along the center line of the road in the vision of other drivers in the section, which has a significant warning effect and indicates that the lane will soon be closed to other vehicles.

[0036] Within the 3000m stretch of road leading to the destination, the lights will be constantly on a green light. This will create a green light strip along the center line of the road in the vision of other drivers within the stretch, providing a significant warning and prompting other vehicles to notice the change in light color and move away as soon as possible.

[0037] 2. Lay them on highways or national roads to warn drivers.

[0038] When snow or ice covers the main road, the ground markings are difficult to see. At this time, the first heating wire 8 and the second heating wire 9 of the lamp can be turned on to heat the upper cover 10 and the transparent cover plate 11. The nickel-chromium alloy heating wire is powered by an external power source to melt the snow or ice.

[0039] Furthermore, the indicator light emitted by the lights is significantly more effective than reflective cones, effectively reminding drivers to stay in the center line. At the same time, because the lights extend along the road, drivers can more clearly judge whether there are sharp bends or obstacles ahead in the dark to avoid accidents.

[0040] In the event of an accident ahead in low visibility conditions, all lane lights can be adjusted to flashing yellow. Drivers of other vehicles behind will suddenly see conspicuous yellow light strips flashing in each lane, which can effectively warn drivers to slow down.

[0041] This application utilizes LED light assembly 6 to replace existing road guide lines, greatly improving the guidance effect for vehicles. Furthermore, the circuit board 4 of this application has a mounting groove 12, and the center of the rubber pad 5 has a through hole 13 corresponding to the mounting groove 12. The bottom of the LED light assembly 6 is installed in the mounting groove 12, and the lower surface of the upper cover 10 has an upwardly recessed middle groove, a first groove, and a second groove. The prism cover 7 is placed on the LED light assembly 6, and the top of the prism cover 7 is set in the middle groove. This arrangement effectively ensures the normal operation of the LED light assembly 6 and further improves the guidance effect.

[0042] The first heating wire 8 of this application is installed in the first groove, and the second heating wire 9 is installed in the second groove. The rubber pad 5 is provided with a first elongated groove 14 and a second elongated groove 15 corresponding to the first groove and the second groove. A first wire hole is provided in the first elongated groove 14, and a second wire hole is provided in the second elongated groove 15. The portions of the first heating wire 8 and the second heating wire 9 that protrude from the lower surface of the upper end cover 10 after being pressed into the first groove and the second groove are placed in the first elongated groove 14 and the second elongated groove 15 but do not contact the rubber pad 5. In snowy weather, by installing the first heating wire 8 and the second heating wire 9 in the first groove and the second groove, the first heating wire 8 and the second heating wire 9 are pressed tightly against the upper end cover 10 to heat the upper end cover 10 and the transparent cover plate 11, so that the snow covering the transparent cover plate 11 is melted to prevent obstruction of the driver's view. This application features a simple structure, convenient installation, and easy maintenance. The LED light assembly 6 is placed inside the base and installed within the mounting bucket 1. Furthermore, the LED light assembly 6 guides vehicles, effectively ensuring smooth traffic flow, significantly improving road traffic guidance efficiency, and further enhancing road driving safety. It should be emphasized that this utility model claims protection for the structure of traffic signal lights and does not involve new computer programs.
