Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of traffic maintenance and safety equipment, and in particular to a movable mechanism and device for road warning signs. Background Technology

[0002] In highway construction and road closure scenarios, the timely and accurate placement of warning signs is crucial for ensuring construction safety and traffic order. However, the traditional method of placing warning signs, which is currently widely used in the industry, still relies on manual placement across the road, a method that has revealed many insurmountable shortcomings in practical application.

[0003] From a safety perspective, highways, as high-frequency traffic channels, are characterized by large traffic volumes and high vehicle speeds. When manually placing warning signs across the road, operators are exposed to the open road environment for extended periods. They not only have to deal with sudden vehicle changes of direction and insufficient braking, but also face a significant risk of being hit by vehicles due to factors such as driver inattention and obstructed vision. According to relevant construction safety statistics, road construction safety accidents caused by such manual operations account for more than 30%, seriously threatening the lives of construction workers and placing enormous safety management pressure on construction projects.

[0004] In terms of efficiency, manual placement is limited by factors such as manpower, physical strength, and operator proficiency, resulting in a slow deployment speed. Especially in multi-lane, long-distance construction closure scenarios, completing a full set of warning sign placement often requires multiple workers to work together, taking tens of minutes or even hours. Furthermore, when the construction area needs to be moved due to project schedule adjustments or sudden changes in road conditions, the process of manually readjusting the sign positions is equally cumbersome and difficult to respond quickly, leading to a disconnect between the warning signs and the actual construction area, further increasing the difficulty of traffic management.

[0005] Furthermore, traditional methods suffer from insufficient accuracy in early warning. When placed manually, parameters such as the spacing and angle of the signs are easily affected by human error, making it difficult to strictly adhere to the standard requirements in traffic management regulations. This may lead drivers to misjudge information such as the scope of road closures and detour routes, which not only affects the smooth flow of traffic but may also cause secondary traffic accidents, resulting in a dual negative impact on construction safety and road traffic efficiency.

[0006] In summary, the existing methods of manually deploying warning signs can no longer meet the requirements of safety, efficiency, and accuracy in modern highway construction. There is an urgent need for a technical solution that can safely, efficiently, and flexibly deploy warning signs to address the aforementioned industry pain points.

[0007] The embodiments in this application are improvements made to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0008] The purpose of this application is to provide a road warning sign moving mechanism and device. Implementing this application will improve the efficiency of sign placement, flexibly respond to changes in construction areas, and accurately issue road closure warnings.

[0009] To achieve the aforementioned objective, in a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a road warning sign moving mechanism, the technical solution of which is:

[0010] A road warning sign moving mechanism includes a housing, a power component, a support component, and a positioning component. The power component is installed inside the housing and includes a transmission mechanism and a drive power source. The transmission mechanism and the drive power source are located in the space covered by the housing. The support component is connected to the positioning component and includes a mounting rod and a base. The power component and the mounting rod are both mounted on the base.

[0011] In another feasible embodiment, the road warning sign moving mechanism includes a housing, a power component, a support component, and a positioning component. The power component is installed outside the housing and includes a transmission mechanism and a drive power source. The transmission mechanism and drive power source are located outside the housing, specifically, they can be installed at the upper end, side, or bottom end of the housing. The support component is connected to the positioning component and includes a mounting rod and a base. The power component and the mounting rod are both installed on the base.

[0012] In another feasible embodiment, the road warning sign moving mechanism includes a housing, a power component, a support component and a positioning component. The power component is installed outside the housing and includes a transmission mechanism and a drive power supply. The housing is divided into an upper shell and a lower shell. The power component may be located in the cavity covered by the lower shell or at the lower end of the upper shell.

[0013] In this embodiment, the driving power source is divided into a battery and a solar panel. The battery is installed inside the upper shell, and the solar panel is installed at the upper end of the upper shell. The support component is connected to the positioning component. The support component includes a mounting rod and a base. The power component and the mounting rod are both installed on the base.

[0014] With the above settings, the drive power supply is used to deliver driving force to the transmission mechanism, enabling the transmission mechanism to move the housing together.

[0015] Based on the first aspect, in one possible implementation, the above-mentioned transmission mechanism includes a tension wheel and a drive wheel. In a specific embodiment, the tension wheel and the drive wheel are covered with a transmission belt, and the tension wheel rotates with the drive wheel under the action of the transmission belt.

[0016] In this embodiment, the transmission mechanism may also be provided with roller a, which is also fitted with a transmission belt. With this arrangement, both the tension wheel and roller a can rotate with the drive wheel under the action of the transmission belt. Roller a plays a tension role in the transmission mechanism, which can make the contact between the transmission belt and the drive wheel and tension wheel more tight, so that the driving force of the drive wheel can be effectively transmitted to the tension wheel. The driving power provides power for the movement of the device. Through the transmission cooperation of the transmission belt and the tension wheel set, the device is driven to move along the guardrail.

[0017] In addition, a second aspect of the embodiments of this application also provides a road warning sign moving device, which includes the first aspect or any possible road warning sign moving mechanism, communication module, and control module.

[0018] The aforementioned communication module is installed inside the housing, specifically in the upper housing, and is used to receive remote control commands and provide feedback on the device status. The aforementioned control module is coupled to the communication module and is used to receive remote control commands transmitted by the communication module. This configuration enables precise control of the drive motor, allowing the device to start, stop, change speed, and adjust its direction of movement, enabling the device to reach the designated road closure location as needed without human intervention, thus reducing the safety pressure of road construction.

They should not be construed as limiting the specific protection scope of the embodiments of this application.

[0031] It should be understood that in this application, "at least one (item)" means one or more, and "more than" means two or more. "And / or" is used to describe the relationship between related objects, indicating that three relationships can exist. For example, "A and / or B" can represent: only A exists, only B exists, and both A and B exist simultaneously, where A and B can be singular or plural. The character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following related objects have an "or" relationship.

[0032] To better understand the embodiments of the present invention, please refer to Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the road warning sign moving mechanism includes a housing 1, a power component, a support component and a positioning component. The power component is installed inside and / or outside the housing 1 and includes a transmission mechanism and a drive power supply. The drive power supply is used to transmit driving force to the transmission mechanism, which can drive the housing 1 to move on the guardrail 10.

[0033] In one feasible implementation, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the power assembly is installed inside the housing 1. The transmission mechanism and drive power supply are located in the space covered by the housing 1. Specifically, the drive power supply consists of a battery and a solar panel. When needed, the solar panel can be removed from the housing 1 and placed on the upper surface of the housing 1 so that it can receive sufficient sunlight and move with the mechanism.

[0034] The transmission mechanism includes a tension wheel 1-1 and a drive wheel 1-2. A transmission belt is fitted over both the tension wheel 1-1 and the drive wheel 1-2. The tension wheel 1-1 rotates along with the drive wheel 1-2 under the action of the transmission belt. In this embodiment, the transmission mechanism may also include a roller a3, which is also fitted with a transmission belt. With this arrangement, both the tension wheel 1-2 and the roller a3 can rotate along with the drive wheel 1-2 under the action of the transmission belt. The roller a3 acts as a tension element in the transmission mechanism, allowing for a tighter fit between the transmission belt and the drive wheel 1-2 and the tension wheel 1-1. This effectively transmits the driving force of the drive wheel 1-2 to the tension wheel. The power supply provides power for the movement of the device. Through the transmission of the transmission belt and the tension wheel assembly, the device moves along the guardrail.

[0035] In this embodiment, at least one set of rollers a3 is provided. Specifically, one roller a3 is installed at the bottom of the chassis 4, and the other roller a3 is installed on the mounting rod 2. The rollers a3 installed on the chassis 4 and the mounting rod 2 have the same structure. The rollers a3 are respectively attached to the front protrusion and the top surface of the guardrail 10. In order to make the moving mechanism more stable, two rollers a3 installed at the bottom of the chassis 4 can also be provided. The specific arrangement can be adjusted according to the situation. This arrangement can make the moving mechanism stable and prevent the risk of tilting.

[0036] In this embodiment, refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6At least one tension wheel 1-1 and one drive wheel 1-2 are provided. If one tension wheel 1-2 and one drive wheel 1-2 are provided, the transmission belt is directly sleeved on the tension wheel 1-1 and the drive wheel 1-2. In this case, the drive wheel 1-2 directly drives the tension wheel 1-1 to rotate through the transmission belt. The tension wheel 1-1 is connected to the chassis reinforcing plate 4-2 through the wheel axle. The chassis reinforcing plate 4-2 is also provided with a sliding groove 4-3 and a bearing seat mounting plate 4-4. The sliding groove 4-3 is fixedly installed on the chassis 4 through the chassis reinforcing plate 4-2. The bearing seat mounting plate 4-4 is installed between the sliding groove 4-3 and the chassis reinforcing plate 4-2 and can slide therein.

[0037] In this embodiment, refer to Figures 3 to 5 Tension wheel 1-1 is attached to the front protrusion and top of guardrail 10. The structure of tension wheel 1-1 attached to the front protrusion of guardrail 10 is the same as that of tension wheel 1-1 attached to the top of guardrail 10. Therefore, the connection structure and method of tension wheel 1-1 to chassis 4 are the same. Therefore, when it is necessary to position the moving mechanism on guardrail 10, at least one set of tension wheel 1-1 is required. A set of bearing mounting plates 4-4 is provided on chassis 4. The bearing mounting plates 4-4 are fastened together by springs 4-5, so that a set of tension wheel 1-1 can be tightly attached to guardrail 10.

[0038] With this configuration, roller a3, in conjunction with tension wheel 1-1, enables the moving mechanism to move stably on guardrail 10. The transmission belt can include flexible belts (such as rubber belts, synchronous belts, etc.).

[0039] In another feasible embodiment, the road warning sign moving mechanism includes a housing 1, a power component, a support component, and a positioning component. The power component is installed outside the housing 1 and includes a transmission mechanism and a drive power supply. The transmission mechanism and drive power supply are located outside the housing 1, specifically, they can be installed at the upper end, side, or bottom end of the housing 1. The support component is connected to the positioning component and includes a mounting rod 2 and a base. The power component and the mounting rod 2 are both installed on the base. The connection method between the transmission mechanism, the power component, and the support component is the same as the structure in the above embodiment and will not be described again here.

[0040] In one possible application scenario, the road warning sign moving mechanism includes a housing 1, a power component, a support component, and a positioning component. The power component is installed outside the housing 1 and includes a transmission mechanism and a drive power supply. The housing 1 is divided into an upper shell 1-3 and a lower shell 1-4. The power component can be located in the cavity covered by the lower shell 1-4 or at the lower end of the upper shell 1-3. The connection method between the transmission mechanism, the power component, and the support component is the same as that in the above embodiment and will not be described again here.

[0041] In one feasible implementation, the driving power source is divided into a battery and a solar panel. The battery is installed inside the upper shell 1-3, and the solar panel is installed at the upper end of the upper shell 1-3. The support component is connected to the positioning component. The support component includes a mounting rod 2 and a base. The power component and the mounting rod 2 are both installed on the base. With the above configuration, the driving power source is used to transmit driving force to the transmission mechanism, so that the transmission mechanism can drive the shell 1 to move together. The base includes a chassis 4. The end of the mounting rod 2 is connected to the chassis 4, and the other end of the mounting rod 2 is connected to the positioning component. Specifically, the end of the mounting rod 2 is connected to the roller b6 of the positioning component.

[0042] In other words, the installation position of the power component and the housing 1 can be flexibly set. It can be installed in the internal space of the housing 1 or in the external area of ​​the housing 1. Specifically, when the power component is located outside the housing 1, it can be fixed at the upper end of the housing 1 or other positions.

[0043] In this embodiment, the base also includes a mounting plate 5, and the drive power supply is mounted on the mounting plate 5. The bottom surface of the chassis 4 is connected to the positioning component, specifically, to the roller b6 of the positioning component. In this embodiment, the roller b6 is connected to the mounting rod 2, or the roller b6 is connected to the chassis 4, or the roller b6 is connected to both the mounting rod 2 and the chassis 4. In this case, a pair of rollers b6 are provided with identical structures. Alternatively, a pair of rollers b6 connected to the chassis 4 can be provided. This arrangement facilitates the sliding of the movable structure on the guardrail 10.

[0044] In one possible application scenario, the mobile mechanism also includes an identification plate 7 and a push rod 8. The identification plate 7 is located on the outside of the housing 1, and the two ends of the push rod 8 are connected to the identification plate 7 and the chassis 4 respectively. Specifically, the push rod 8 is connected to the chassis 4 through a push rod mounting rod.

[0045] In this embodiment, the housing 1 is also provided with a movable groove 9 for the push rod 8 to move. The size of the opening of the movable groove 9 determines the moving area of ​​the push rod 8, thereby determining whether the sign 7 can be folded normally.

[0046] In addition, a second aspect of the embodiments of this application also provides a road warning sign moving device, which includes the first aspect or any possible road warning sign moving mechanism, communication module, and control module.

[0047] The aforementioned communication module is installed inside the housing 1, specifically in the upper housing 1-3, and is used to receive remote control commands and provide feedback on the device status. The aforementioned control module is coupled to the communication module and is used to receive remote control commands transmitted by the communication module. This configuration enables precise control of the drive motor operation, realizing the start, stop, speed change, and direction adjustment of the device, allowing the device to reach the designated road closure location as needed without manual intervention, thus reducing the safety pressure of road construction.

[0048] This setup eliminates the need for manual placement of warning signs across roads, mitigating personal safety risks from highway traffic and ensuring the safety of construction workers and other road users. Remote control allows for rapid deployment of the device to designated locations and deployment of signs, enabling more timely responses to road closures and flexible handling of changes in construction areas, thus improving traffic control and construction coordination efficiency. Solar panels collect and store electricity, reducing reliance on traditional electricity, lowering operating costs, and adhering to green environmental principles, ensuring long-term stable and autonomous power supply for the device.
