Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of traffic signal technology, specifically a new type of traffic signal. Background Technology
[0002] Traffic lights are common in daily life, found at almost every intersection. Besides the usual red and green lights, there are many other types of traffic lights, broadly categorized into seven types: motor vehicle traffic lights, non-motor vehicle traffic lights, pedestrian crossing traffic lights, lane traffic lights, directional indicator traffic lights, flashing warning traffic lights, and level crossing traffic lights. The placement of traffic lights is not arbitrary; they are typically installed when both intersecting roads are arterial roads, or when traffic flow at the intersection is high during peak hours.
[0003] The current new type of traffic signal light refers to pedestrian crossing signal lights. Due to the increasing number of "smartphone zombies" who look down at their phones on the sidewalks, they cannot properly observe the pedestrian crossing signal lights and cross the road directly, causing traffic hazards or safety threats. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a new type of traffic signal light to change the current situation. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a novel traffic signal light. By installing the traffic signal light flush with the concrete layer, and simultaneously cooperating with the built-in light column light group, the light column is triggered to light up when the traffic lights are on, forming a red light column grid to warn pedestrians and "smartphone addicts" and prevent them from crossing the road directly. At the same time, it can also inform pedestrians of their travel time and stopping time based on the traffic lights on both sides and the timer.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: A novel traffic signal light includes a traffic signal light with a sealed cover inside. A lamp holder is located below the sealed cover. A plurality of grounding fixing cylinders are fixed to both sides of the lamp holder. A glass fixing groove is formed on the sealed cover, and a high-transmittance glass is placed within the groove. A plurality of alignment auxiliary locking sleeves are installed on the sealed cover. A beam light group is installed above the lamp holder. A scrolling screen is located next to the beam light group. A traffic light is located on one side of the scrolling screen, and a countdown timer is located on the other side. The beam light group consists of several columnar LED beads, each group of beads shining upwards to form a beam of light, thereby creating a light barrier to warn pedestrians to stop crossing the zebra crossing. It also facilitates viewing for pedestrians who are looking down at their phones, preventing them from directly crossing the road and causing unnecessary safety hazards and traffic accidents.
[0006] Furthermore, a fixing ring is provided inside the alignment auxiliary lock sleeve, and a retaining ring is installed above the fixing ring. Side retaining ears are fixed on both sides of the fixing ring, and a fixing rod is fixed inside each side retaining ear. A side retaining rod is installed on the fixing rod, and a positioning sleeve is provided below the fixing ring. An extended alignment ring is provided at the bottom of the positioning sleeve, and a plurality of connecting blocks are fixed to the outer wall of the extended alignment ring. The fixing rod mainly cooperates with the side retaining rod to bear force, so that when the bolt passes through the positioning sleeve, it forms a compression, preventing bolt rod displacement and misalignment with the grounding fixing cylinder below, thus preventing difficulty in fixing.
[0007] Furthermore, the retaining ring is connected to the sealing cover, the side retaining lug is fixed to the lower surface of the sealing cover, the side retaining rod is connected to the connecting block, and the lower part of the extended alignment ring is directly opposite the grounding fixing cylinder. The extended alignment ring mainly prevents the through-hole bolt rod from shifting, and also works with the side retaining rod to provide support, thereby positioning the through-hole bolt rod in the positioning sleeve.
[0008] Furthermore, the positioning sleeve is made of rubber, the extended alignment ring is composed of two semi-circular arcs, the lamp holder has a built-in controller, power supply, and external wiring harness, and the entire lamp holder is made of high-strength steel. The lamp holder is mainly used for the security of built-in accessories, and also provides layout and fixation for its countdown timer, scrolling screen, traffic lights, and light beam groups, while providing strength support for the upper sealing cover.
[0009] Furthermore, the traffic light is surrounded by a concrete layer, the height of which is flush with the sealing cover. The traffic light is primarily embedded in the concrete layer, with its height flush with the surface of the concrete layer, to prevent pedestrians from tripping and falling. Beneficial effects
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0011] This utility model integrates traffic signal lights into the concrete layer on the side of the zebra crossing. Combined with built-in light pillars, these lights adapt to the traffic lights when they are on, creating a red light pillar grid to warn pedestrians and those distracted by their phones, preventing them from crossing the road directly. The system also uses the traffic lights and timers on both sides to inform pedestrians of their travel time and when to stop.
[0012] This utility model uses a fixing ring on the sealing cover and side fixing ears on both sides to reinforce the bottom of the sealing cover. When the locking bolt is inserted, the positioning sleeve is reinforced by the cooperation of the expansion alignment ring and the side fixing rod, so that it is perpendicular to the grounding fixing cylinder below, which makes it convenient for the bolt rod to be directly screwed and fixed.
