Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of signage technology, specifically a movable outdoor sign. Background Technology

[0002] Outdoor signs play an important role in traffic guidance, construction warnings, and public information dissemination. Their main function is to provide people with clear directional or warning information. Outdoor multi-directional signs with dynamic guidance functions are widely used in complex scenarios because they can adjust the displayed content according to changes in the environment.

[0003] A search revealed existing technology (application number: CN113362697B), which describes "an outdoor multi-directional sign with dynamic guidance and its implementation method." This utility model achieves adaptive wind resistance through a suction cup and lever linkage structure. It utilizes the wind force acting on the arc-shaped component to generate a pressure difference, driving the piston to move and enhance the negative pressure adsorption effect of the suction cup, thereby improving stability in strong wind environments.

[0004] However, while existing technologies have certain advantages in improving the wind resistance of signs, they still have some shortcomings: their overall structure is fixed, making it difficult to meet the needs of rapid movement or frequent relocation; in addition, their disassembly and assembly process is relatively complicated, limiting their application in scenarios that require flexible deployment, such as temporary guidance and emergency warnings; and they do not protect the content of the signs. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a movable outdoor sign.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a movable outdoor sign, comprising: a main component including a sign panel frame for fixing the sign content; a support component including a telescopic rod disposed below the sign panel frame; a positioning component including a positioning pin slidably disposed on the telescopic rod for fixing the telescopic rod; and a fixing component including a fixing seat fixedly connected above the positioning pin.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0008] The sign panel frame has a sliding groove; the telescopic rod has multiple sets of positioning holes; and the fixed base has two symmetrical sliding grooves.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0010] The main components also include: a protective cover, which is set on the sign panel frame and has a first state and a second state; and a receiving seat, which is fixed to the lower surface of the sign panel frame and threaded onto the outside of the telescopic rod to support the sign panel frame.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0012] When the protective cover is in the first state, it is slidably disposed in the slide groove one opened in the sign panel frame, and is in a moving state; when the protective cover is in the second state, it is engaged with the fixed base, and is in a stationary state.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0014] The support assembly also includes: a support column, sleeved on the telescopic rod, with the positioning pin slidably disposed on the support column to support the telescopic rod; a support plate, threadedly connected to the bottom of the support column to support the support column; a base, fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate to support the support plate; and casters, fixedly connected to the lower surface of the base to move the entire device.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0016] The positioning assembly also includes: a fixing plate, fixed to one end of a positioning pin, for moving the positioning pin; a spring, one end of which is fixed to the outer surface of the support column, and the other end of which is fixed to the side of the fixing plate near the positioning pin and sleeved on the outside of the positioning pin, for resetting the fixing plate; and a pull ring, fixed to the side of the fixing plate away from the positioning pin, for moving the fixing plate.

[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0018] The fixing assembly also includes: a second positioning pin, which is slidably disposed in the groove opened in the fixing seat; a second fixing plate, which is fixed to one end of the second positioning pin and is used to drive the second positioning pin to reset; and a second spring, one end of which is fixed to the inner wall of the second groove opened in the fixing seat, and the other end of which is fixed to the side of the second fixing plate away from the second positioning pin and is used to drive the second fixing plate to reset.

[0019] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. By innovatively adopting a "universal caster + quick locking" design, the universal caster under the base allows the device to move flexibly on complex outdoor surfaces such as grass and gravel, meeting the needs of frequent position changes. After adjusting the height by pulling the positioning pin one with the positioning hole of the telescopic rod, the spring one automatically resets and locks, which can quickly complete the height switch. In scenarios such as temporary guidance and emergency warning, the deployment efficiency is improved compared with traditional signs, and the problem of fixed structures being difficult to relocate is completely solved.

[0021] The entire structure adopts a modular quick-installation structure: the threaded connection between the receiving seat and the telescopic rod enables quick disassembly of the sign panel frame; the elastic reset design of positioning pin one and positioning pin two eliminates the need for tools and is fully adaptable to the rapid deployment needs of emergency scenarios; the dual-state switching function of the protective cover is specifically designed to solve the problem of protecting the sign content - when moving, it closes along the sliding groove one to form a sealed cavity; when stationary, it snaps into the fixed seat to form a protective cover, which can block most of the direct sunlight and vertical rain, keeping the sign content clear and solving the problem of blurred content caused by the lack of protection in traditional signs.

[0033] In this embodiment, the positioning component and the fixing component constitute a movable outdoor signboard according to this application.

[0034] It should also be noted that this device can be used for any signage that requires guidance or warning, and this application does not limit the specific guidance or warning categories.

[0035] It should also be understood that casters are common knowledge in this field. They are only used and not modified, so the control method and circuit connection will not be described in detail.

[0036] Specifically, the sign panel frame 101 has a sliding groove; the telescopic rod 201 has multiple sets of positioning holes; and the fixed base 401 has two symmetrical sliding grooves.

[0037] In this embodiment, the inside of the sign panel frame 101 may be equipped with a lighting lamp, the first slide groove provides a sliding path for the protective cover, the positioning hole cooperates with the positioning pin to fix the length of the telescopic rod, and the second slide groove provides sliding space for the second positioning pin; thus realizing the sliding and positioning cooperation of each component and ensuring the adjustability of the structure.

[0038] Specifically, the main components also include: a protective cover 102, which is set on the sign panel frame 101 and has a first state and a second state; and a receiving seat 103, which is fixed to the lower surface of the sign panel frame 101 and threaded onto the outside of the telescopic rod 201 to support the sign panel frame 101.

[0039] As a preferred embodiment, the protective cover 102 may be equipped with a solar panel to provide energy for the lighting inside the sign panel frame 101; the protective cover 102 is equipped with a handle to facilitate switching from the first state to the second state; the protective cover 102 protects the sign content through state switching, and the support 103 transfers the weight of the frame to the telescopic rod 201 and realizes a detachable connection; protecting the sign content and enhancing the connection stability between the frame and the telescopic rod.

[0040] Specifically, when the protective cover 102 is in the first state, the protective cover 102 is slidably disposed in the slide groove 1 opened in the sign panel frame 101, and is in a moving state; when the protective cover 102 is in the second state, the protective cover 102 is engaged with the fixed base 401, and is in a stationary state.

[0041] In this embodiment, the protective cover switches between sliding and snap-fit ​​states, reducing space occupation when moving and fully protecting the markings when stationary; adapting to both moving and stationary scenarios and improving usage flexibility.

[0042] Example 2:

[0043] Based on Embodiment 1, in order to further improve the mobility, a support component is arranged below the sign panel frame 101;

[0044] Specifically, the support assembly also includes: a support column 202, sleeved on the telescopic rod 201, with the positioning pin 301 slidably disposed on the support column 202 to support the telescopic rod 201; a support plate 203, threadedly connected to the bottom of the support column 202 to support the support column 202; a base 204, fixedly connected to the bottom of the support plate 203 to support the support plate 203; and casters 205, fixedly connected to the lower surface of the base 204 to move the entire device.

[0045] With this configuration, the support column 202 and the telescopic rod 201 work together to adjust the height, the support plate 203 distributes the pressure, the base 204 integrates the support points, and the casters 205 enable movement and locking; thus, the height of the signboard can be adjusted and it can be moved flexibly, enhancing the stability of the placement.

[0046] Example 3:

[0047] Based on Example 2, in order to further improve the adaptability of the sign, a positioning component is arranged on the support column 202;

[0048] Specifically, the positioning assembly also includes: a fixing plate 302, fixedly connected to one end of the positioning pin 301, for moving the positioning pin 301; a spring 303, one end fixedly connected to the outer surface of the support column 202, and the other end fixedly connected to the side of the fixing plate 302 near the positioning pin 301, and sleeved on the outside of the positioning pin 301, for resetting the fixing plate 302; and a pull ring 304, fixedly connected to the side of the fixing plate 302 away from the positioning pin 301, for moving the fixing plate 302.

[0049] Pulling the pull ring moves the fixing plate and the positioning pin, compressing the spring. After releasing, the spring returns to its original position, and the positioning pin is inserted into the positioning hole to fix the telescopic rod. This allows for quick adjustment and locking of the telescopic rod, making operation convenient.

[0050] Specifically, the fixing component also includes: a second positioning pin 402, which is slidably disposed in the groove opened in the fixing base 401; a second fixing plate 403, which is fixed to one end of the second positioning pin 402 and is used to drive the second positioning pin 402 to reset; and a second spring 404, one end of which is fixed to the inner wall of the second groove opened in the fixing base 401, and the other end of which is fixed to the side of the second fixing plate 403 away from the second positioning pin 402 and is used to drive the second fixing plate 403 to reset.

[0051] In this embodiment, pushing the positioning pin two causes the fixing plate two to compress the spring two, and the positioning pin two retracts into the slide groove two; after being released, the spring two returns to its original position, and the positioning pin two extends to clamp the protective cover, fixing its position; this enhances the fixing strength of the protective cover in a static state and ensures the protective effect of the marking content.

[0052] In actual use, when it is necessary to move the sign: First, adjust the protective cover 102 to the first state. At this time, the protective cover 102 is slidably set in the groove 1 opened in the sign panel frame 101 to prevent the sign content from falling. The sign can be moved by the universal wheels 205 on the lower surface of the base 204, making it easy to move the sign to the required position. After the sign is moved to the designated position, adjust the protective cover 102 to the second state so that it is locked onto the fixing seat 401 to prevent rain or falling stones from damaging the sign content.

[0053] For fixing the telescopic rod 201, by pulling the pull ring 304, the positioning pin 301 is moved, compressing the spring 303. After adjusting the positioning pin 301 to the appropriate position, the pull ring 304 is released, and the elastic force of the spring 303 will drive the positioning pin 301 to reset, thereby fixing the telescopic rod 201 to the support column 202. For fixing the protective cover 102 in the second state, the positioning pin 402 in the fixing assembly is slidably set in the groove opened in the fixing seat 401 under the action of the spring 404 and the fixing plate 403, thereby stably snapping the protective cover 102 onto the sign panel frame 101.

[0054] Through the coordinated operation of the above components, this movable outdoor sign can achieve functions such as flexible movement, stable fixation with protection, and height adjustment, meeting the needs of outdoor use.
