Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of parking lot sign technology, specifically a parking lot sign structure. Background Technology

[0002] With the acceleration of urbanization, underground parking lots, as a crucial infrastructure for alleviating urban parking pressure, play a vital role in improving overall traffic order through efficient vehicle management and guidance. Traditional parking lot signs mostly employ fixed structures, typically affixed directly to walls or brackets, providing drivers with basic information such as parking areas, entrances / exits, and driving directions through static signage. While these fixed signs are simple in design and low in installation cost, they have some significant shortcomings.

[0003] First, the installation location and height of fixed signs are limited by the site structure, making it difficult to adjust according to different ceiling heights or visibility conditions. This limits the effectiveness of the signs, especially in situations with high ceilings or obstructed views, where drivers may have difficulty clearly identifying the information. Second, fixed signs are typically difficult to maintain and replace. Damage or updates require cumbersome and time-consuming disassembly and reinstallation, increasing maintenance costs. Furthermore, the durability of signs is significantly affected by the environment, particularly in the humid and dusty conditions of underground parking garages, where corrosion and aging can easily occur, impacting their lifespan and effectiveness.

[0004] Furthermore, traditional signs are mostly static displays, unable to dynamically indicate information based on lighting conditions. At night or in low-light conditions, the visibility of the information is significantly reduced. Although some locations use lighting equipment, it is usually fixed and inconvenient to adjust, failing to flexibly adapt the directional effect to actual needs and impacting overall guidance efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, this utility model provides a parking lot sign structure to solve the aforementioned problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a parking lot sign structure, including an H-shaped mounting frame, with signs installed on the outer sides of the left and right sides of the H-shaped mounting frame and at the front and rear of the central crossbeam. Projection lights are installed at the bottom of the left and right sides of the H-shaped mounting frame and the central crossbeam. An adjustable mounting frame is installed directly above the H-shaped mounting frame and mounted on the ceiling of the underground parking garage. The four corners of the adjustable mounting frame and the H-shaped mounting frame are connected by suspension cables. The adjustable mounting frame includes a mounting frame directly mounted on the ceiling of the underground parking garage and a bottom frame distributed directly below it for positioning the four suspension cables. A multi-stage electric push rod for adjusting the distance between the mounting frame and the bottom frame is installed at the center.

[0007] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the four corners of the bottom frame are specifically provided with hooks for positioning the top ends of the four suspension cables.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the front and rear ends of both sides of the H-shaped mounting frame are equipped with hanging rings for hanging the bottom end of the suspension cable.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the four side frames of the mounting frame and the bottom frame are connected by a scissor bracket and a connector. The connector is installed inside the mounting groove provided inside the side frame of the bottom frame. The two top corners of the scissor bracket are hinged to the bottom surface of the mounting frame frame, and the two bottom corners of the scissor bracket are connected to the connector.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the connector includes a guide rod installed inside the mounting groove, and guide sleeves slidably sleeved at both ends of the guide rod, with the top walls of the guide sleeves at both ends respectively hinged to the two corner ends of the bottom of the scissor lift connecting frame.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the four corners of the adjustable mounting bracket are positioned on the top wall of the underground garage by positioning bolts.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the outer edges of the top of the left and right sides of the frame and the front and rear edges of the top of the central crossbeam are provided with hanging protrusions for hanging the sign. In addition to hanging, the sign is also positioned on the H-shaped mounting bracket by screws.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the present invention provides a parking lot sign structure with the following advantages:

[0014] This parking lot signage structure utilizes an H-shaped mounting frame as the main load-bearing structure, combined with signs installed on the left, right, and central crossbeams, effectively improving the coverage and visual visibility of the directional information. The signs are made of corrosion-resistant and waterproof materials with excellent reflective properties, enabling them to withstand the humid environment of underground parking garages and ensuring clear visibility of the directional information under various weather conditions, greatly enhancing the safety and convenience of vehicle traffic.

[0015] The high-brightness LED projection lights installed at the bottom of the structure are distributed on the left and right sides of the H-shaped mounting bracket and the central crossbeam. They can project clear parking instructions at night or in low-light conditions. Together with the signs, they form a variety of ground projection directions to help drivers more intuitively and accurately judge the parking area and direction, effectively reducing blind spots and misjudgments, and improving parking efficiency and safety.

[0016] The sign features an adjustable mounting bracket, with the mounting frame and base frame connected by multi-stage electric push rods, providing high-precision height adjustment. This design not only allows the sign to flexibly adapt to different underground parking garage heights and sightline requirements, ensuring optimal visual effect and directional angle, but also greatly facilitates subsequent maintenance. When cleaning, inspection, or replacement of the sign is required, the entire sign can be lowered to an easily accessible height using the electric push rods, significantly reducing maintenance difficulty and time costs, and improving maintenance efficiency and safety.

[0017] Furthermore, the suspension system employs high-strength steel wire ropes and multi-point hook-and-loop fastening to form a stable suspension structure, effectively preventing the mounting frame from swaying and shifting, and ensuring the long-term stable operation of the sign. The rational combination of the scissor lift connecting frame and the guide rod sleeve further enhances the stability and reliability during the lifting process, ensuring smooth and stable adjustment movements.

[0018] Overall, the sign's structural design not only emphasizes the diversification of directional information and enhanced visual appeal but also considers installation flexibility and ease of maintenance. Through a height-adjustable mounting bracket and a stable suspension system, it effectively adapts to the needs of different parking garage environments, improving the intelligence level and user experience of parking guidance. The application of this structure will significantly improve the management efficiency and safety of underground parking lots, providing drivers with clearer and more intuitive parking guidance, and promoting the widespread adoption and application of intelligent parking systems.
