Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of traffic signal technology, specifically relating to intelligent traffic signal lights based on traffic flow. Background Technology

[0002] Mobile traffic lights, commonly known as "mini traffic police," are portable traffic signal devices mainly used as temporary replacements at intersections where fixed traffic lights have not yet been installed or when fixed traffic lights malfunction.

[0003] In situations with excessive traffic volume, intelligent traffic light regulation is typically employed. Sensors positioned along the roadside intelligently adjust the duration of traffic lights based on road conditions and traffic flow, thereby alleviating traffic congestion. However, at intersections without fixed traffic lights, only one traffic light is usually installed at a key location. When traffic volume is high, a single light is insufficient to quickly manage the flow, necessitating the addition of another traffic light at other intersections. Temporarily adjusting traffic lights is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and in heavy traffic, it can easily lead to traffic jams, accidents, and other dangerous situations. Furthermore, during storms, traffic lights are prone to tipping over, causing damage and reducing safety.

[0004] Therefore, to address the aforementioned technical issues, it is necessary to provide intelligent traffic light regulation based on traffic flow.

[0005] The information disclosed in this background section is intended only to enhance the understanding of the overall background of this utility model and should not be construed as an admission or in any way implying that the information constitutes prior art known to those skilled in the art.

Detailed Implementation

[0026] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of this utility model, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.

[0027] like Figure 1As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an intelligent traffic light based on traffic flow, comprising a first traffic light 1 and a second traffic light 2. Both the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 include a light pole 101, a light body 5, a trolley seat 102, and casters 4. The light body 5 guides traffic.

[0028] The first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 are connected. If the current traffic flow is not heavy, the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 can be fixed together to guide traffic, making it easier for pedestrians and drivers to see. When the traffic flow is heavy and the intersection is located, in order to guide vehicles to quickly clear the current traffic, another traffic light needs to be moved to another position to guide traffic. The first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 can be separated and placed at the two intersections that need traffic guidance to guide the flow of traffic.

[0029] The second traffic light 2 and the first traffic light 1 are both independent traffic lights that can operate independently. Their operating principles and structures are common knowledge in the field and will not be elaborated here.

[0030] like Figures 2-4 As shown, the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 each have multiple first limiting holes 3011 on their trolley bases 102. The second limiting post 7 is simultaneously inserted into the first limiting holes 3011 located on the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2, respectively, to fix the current pair of trolley bases 102 together.

[0031] One of the trolley seats 102 has a first limiting groove 103 on one end face, and a connecting block 104 is fixedly connected to the other trolley seat 102. The connecting block 104 is interference-fitted to the inner end face of the first limiting groove 103 to fix the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 to each other.

[0032] Preferably, an iron sheet is fixedly connected inside the trolley seat 102, and a magnet is fixedly connected to one end face of the connecting block 104. The magnet magnetically connects the iron sheet, thereby achieving mutual fixation between the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2.

[0033] Specifically, when it is necessary to separate the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2, take the second limiting post 7 upwards, move the second limiting post 7 until it is inserted into a pair of first limiting holes 3011 on one of the trolley seats 102, and then pull the moving handle 6 to separate the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2.

[0034] like Figure 2As shown, multiple end faces of the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 are fixedly connected to windproof devices 3. Each windproof device 3 includes a limiting seat 306, which is fixedly connected to the bottom end face of the first traffic light 1 or the second traffic light 2. In stormy weather or on uneven ground, the limiting seat 306 can be moved downwards until it is flush with the ground. While increasing the contact area with the ground, the limiting seat 306 itself has a certain weight, which increases the overall stability of the first traffic light 1, making it less likely to tip over even in stormy weather.

[0035] Furthermore, the windproof device 3 also includes a first movable plate 301 and a second movable plate 304. The pair of first movable plates 301 are attached to a pair of opposite end faces of the trolley seat 102, and the pair of second movable plates 304 are attached to a pair of opposite end faces of the movable handrail 6. The second movable plate 304, the first movable plate 301 and the limiting seat 306 are all connected to each other.

[0036] The first movable plate 301 is located on both sides of the trolley seat 102, the limiting seat 306 is located on the bottom side of the trolley seat 102, and the second movable plate 304 is located on both sides of the lamp post 101. The first movable plate 301, the second movable plate 304 and the limiting seat 306 are all fixedly connected to each other and attached to the outer side of the trolley seat 102. When the second movable plate 304 is moved, the first movable plate 301 and the limiting seat 306 also move accordingly.

[0037] Each trolley seat 102 is fixedly connected to a movable handrail 6 on the opposite end face of the light pole 101. The movable handrail 6 is located on the side wall end face of the trolley seat 102 and is parallel to the side end face of the trolley seat 102. The movement of the first traffic light 1 or the second traffic light 2 can be controlled by the movable handrail 6. Preferably, the trolley seat 102 is L-shaped.

[0038] The top end face of the second movable plate 304 is integrally formed with a pull plate 3042, which facilitates the control of the movement of the second movable plate 304.

[0039] Both the movable handrail 6 and the second movable plate 304 have multiple matching third limiting holes 3041. A limiting post 305 is inserted into the groove wall of one of the third limiting holes 3041, and the limiting post 305 passes through the third limiting hole 3041. By controlling the insertion of the limiting post 305 into the third limiting hole 3041, the second movable plate 304 is limited, thereby controlling the fixation of the first movable plate 301, the second movable plate 304, and the limiting seat 306. When it is necessary to control the height of the limiting seat 306 in contact with the ground, the second movable plate 304 is moved up and down until one pair of third limiting holes 3041 on the movable handrail 6 and the second movable plate 304 overlap, and the limiting post 305 is inserted into the third limiting hole 3041 for fixation.

[0040] Preferably, the outer end face of the third limiting hole 3041 on the second moving plate 304 is provided with a second thread, and a part of the end face of the limiting post 305 is provided with a first thread that matches the second thread. The first thread is threaded to the second threaded hole. When the limiting post 305 is inserted into the third limiting hole 3041, the first thread can be connected to the second thread by rotating the limiting post 305, thereby fixing the limiting post 305 on the second moving plate 304.

[0041] Both the first movable plate 301 and the trolley seat 102 are provided with a plurality of matching first threaded holes. One of the first threaded holes is threadedly connected to a limit bolt 303. The limit bolt 303 passes through the first movable plate 301 and the trolley seat 102, thereby stably fixing the first movable plate 301 and the limit seat 306 on the trolley seat 102.

[0042] The outer end face of the limiting seat 306 is integrally formed with a pressing plate 302. When it is necessary to move the limiting seat 306 downward, the limiting bolt 303 and the limiting post 305 are removed, and the pressing plate 302 is stepped down.

[0043] The pressure plate 302 has a second limiting hole 3021. When located in areas prone to storms, ground stakes can be inserted into the ground through the second limiting hole 3021 to fix the first traffic light 1 or the second traffic light 2 to the ground, ensuring that the whole is not affected by storms.

[0044] like Figure 4 As shown, rain shields 503 are fixedly connected to multiple end faces of the lamp body 5 to protect the lamp body 5 from rainwater and prevent it from being corroded by rainwater.

[0045] When the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 are connected, one of the lamp bodies 5 on the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 are attached to each other, and no rain shield 503 is provided on the attached lamp body 5.

[0046] Furthermore, each of the mating end faces of the pair of lamp bodies 5 is provided with a second limiting groove, and a rain shield frame 501 is engaged within the second limiting groove. The rain shield frame 501 is provided with a pull-out groove 502, which controls the movement of the rain shield frame 501. When the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 separate, the rain shield frame 501 can be moved out of the lamp body 5 by the rain shield plate 503 to shield the lamp body 5 from rain.

[0047] When using, such as Figure 1As shown, if the current traffic flow is not heavy, first push the rain cover frame 501 on the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 into the second limiting groove and fix it. By pushing the movable handle 6, control the connecting block 104 of the second traffic light 2 to be engaged in the first limiting groove 103. Move the second limiting post 7 and simultaneously insert it into the first limiting hole 3011 on the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 to fix the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 together for use.

[0048] like Figure 2 As shown, when in stormy weather or on uneven ground, the limit bolt 303 and limit post 305 can be removed. The limit seat 306, relying on its own weight, falls to the ground and is flush with the caster wheel 4, providing support for the whole and enhancing stability, so as not to be affected by storms or uneven ground.

[0049] like Figure 3 As shown, in heavy rain or when water accumulates on the ground, water may enter and damage the internal parts of the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2. The limit bolt 303 and the limit post 305 can be removed in sequence. The limit seat 306 will fall to the ground and be level with the caster 4 under its own weight. Then, step on the pressure plate 302 and move the handrail 6 upward until the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 are off the ground to a certain height. After that, insert the limit post 305 into the second moving plate 304 and the third limit hole 3041 of the moving handrail 6 to fix the whole.

[0050] like Figure 4 As shown, when there is a large volume of traffic and another traffic light is needed to guide the traffic, the first traffic light 1 and the second traffic light 2 can be separated and moved to the intersection where traffic needs to be directed.

[0051] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention. No reference numerals in the claims should be construed as limiting the scope of the claims.

[0052] Furthermore, it should be understood that although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole, and the technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.
