[0002] Traffic signs use graphic symbols and text descriptions to convey information such as road traffic regulations, directional guidance, and distance indicators to drivers and pedestrians. This information helps drivers and pedestrians better understand traffic rules, ensuring smooth traffic flow and driving safety.

[0003] In areas prone to traffic accidents, such as bends where visibility is obstructed or intersections with high traffic volume, traffic signs are usually set up to warn pedestrians and drivers. However, most existing traffic signs are fixed in designated areas. Because these accident-prone areas have a large number of vehicles and pedestrians, visibility is often obstructed, making it difficult for drivers or pedestrians to notice the content of the signs in these complex environments. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the problem that existing traffic signs are mostly fixed in areas with high traffic volume and a large number of pedestrians, the visibility is often obstructed, making it difficult for drivers or pedestrians to notice the content of the signs in these complex environments.

The moving platform is slidably arranged on the upper end of the outer shell, the clamp is provided on the upper end of the moving platform, and the warning dummy is fixedly installed on the upper end of the clamp. The lower end of the outer shell is provided with a support base, and a drive component for driving the warning dummy to reciprocate is provided inside the outer shell.

[0006] Preferably, the drive assembly includes a motor, which is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the housing. A reciprocating lead screw is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor. A bearing housing is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the housing, and one end of the reciprocating lead screw is rotatably connected to the end of the bearing housing.

[0007] Preferably, the outer casing has strip-shaped openings on both sides, the moving platform slides at the openings on both sides of the outer casing, the moving platform is driven by a reciprocating lead screw, a slide rail is fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer casing, the slide rail is slidably connected to the moving platform, and elastic sealing gaskets are fixedly connected at the openings on both sides of the outer casing to protect the reciprocating lead screw.

[0008] Preferably, a bearing seat 2 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the mobile platform, and a clamping plate is rotatably set between the two bearing seats 2. A fastening handle is threadedly connected to the surface of the clamping plate. A guide shaft is fixedly installed at the upper end of the mobile platform. A flange bearing is slidably connected to the surface of the guide shaft. A spring is sleeved on the surface of the guide shaft. A connecting arm is rotatably connected between the clamping plate and the flange bearing.

[0009] Preferably, the lower end of the mobile platform is rotatably connected to a rotating shaft, and the support base is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating shaft. The lower end of the support base is provided with anti-slip feet.

[0010] Preferably, a bearing seat three is fixedly installed on one side of the support base, and a two-way threaded rod is rotatably connected to the end of the bearing seat three.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0013] 1. This movable traffic warning dummy is placed in areas with high vehicle and pedestrian traffic. By moving the dummy back and forth, it can better attract the attention of drivers or pedestrians, greatly reducing the probability that drivers or pedestrians will not notice the warning signs in complex environments, thereby reducing the probability of traffic accidents. In addition, the device adopts a portable design, and the support base can be rotated and stored when not in use.

[0014] 2. When placed in areas with strong winds, rotating the handle will cause the two extended arms inside the support base to move outwards simultaneously. This increases the contact area between the device and the ground, thereby increasing its wind resistance. When subjected to strong winds, the dummy will tilt, reducing the area exposed to the wind and preventing it from breaking. Once the wind returns to normal, the spring will prompt the dummy to return to an upright position. In summary, this greatly improves the device's wind resistance. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0023] Please see Figure 1 - Figure 6 This utility model provides an embodiment of a movable traffic warning dummy, including an outer shell 1 and a movable platform 2, as well as a clamping plate 3 and a warning dummy 4. The movable platform 2 is slidably disposed on the upper end of the outer shell 1, and the clamping plate 3 is disposed on the upper end of the movable platform 2. The warning dummy 4 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the clamping plate 3. The lower end of the outer shell 1 is provided with a support base 5. A drive component is provided inside the outer shell 1 to drive the warning dummy 4 to reciprocate. This movable traffic warning dummy is placed in areas with high vehicle and pedestrian traffic. By driving the warning dummy 4 to reciprocate, the back-and-forth movement of the warning dummy 4 can better attract the attention of drivers or pedestrians, greatly reducing the probability that drivers or pedestrians will not notice the warning signs in complex environments, thereby reducing the probability of traffic accidents.

[0024] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 3In this embodiment, the drive assembly includes a motor 6, which is fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer casing 1. A reciprocating screw 7 is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor 6. A bearing seat 8 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer casing 1. One end of the reciprocating screw 7 is rotatably connected to the end of the bearing seat 8. The outer casing 1 has strip-shaped openings on both sides. The moving platform 2 slides at the openings on both sides of the outer casing 1. The moving platform 2 is driven by the reciprocating screw 7. A slide rail 14 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the outer casing 1 and is slidably connected to the moving platform 2. An elastic sealing gasket 23 is fixedly connected to the openings on both sides of the outer casing 1 to protect the reciprocating screw 7. A bearing seat 9 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the moving platform 2. A clamping plate 3 is rotatably disposed between the two bearing seats 9. A fastening handle 22 is threadedly connected to the surface of the clamping plate 3. A guide shaft 10 is fixedly installed at the upper end of the moving platform 2. A flange bearing 12 is slidably connected to the surface of the guide shaft 10. A spring 13 is sleeved on the surface of the guide shaft 10. A connecting arm 11 is rotatably connected between plate 3 and flange bearing 12. In use, first place the warning dummy 4 on the clamping plate 3, then tighten the fastening handle 22. The clamping plate 3 fixes the warning dummy 4. Then, rotate and unfold the two support bases 5. The support bases 5 are used to support the outer shell 1. This completes the setup of the device. The device is set up in areas with high vehicle and pedestrian traffic. Start the motor 6. The motor 6 drives the reciprocating screw 7 to rotate at bearing seat 8. The reciprocating screw 7 drives the moving platform 2 to reciprocate. The warning dummy 4 on the moving platform 2 also reciprocates at the same time. Warning signs or signal lights can be set on the warning dummy 4. The back-and-forth movement of the warning dummy 4 can better attract the attention of drivers or pedestrians, thereby greatly reducing the probability that drivers or pedestrians will not notice the warning signs in complex environments. The elastic sealing gasket 23 is used to seal the strip openings on both sides of the outer shell 1 to prevent dust and other particles from entering the outer shell 1 and affecting the normal operation of the reciprocating screw 7.

[0025] Please see Figure 5 and Figure 6In this embodiment, a bearing seat 2 9 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the mobile platform 2. A clamping plate 3 is rotatably disposed between the two bearing seats 2 9. A fastening handle 22 is threadedly connected to the surface of the clamping plate 3. A guide shaft 10 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the mobile platform 2. A flange bearing 12 is slidably connected to the surface of the guide shaft 10. A spring 13 is sleeved on the surface of the guide shaft 10. A connecting arm 11 is rotatably connected between the clamping plate 3 and the flange bearing 12. A rotating shaft 20 is rotatably connected to the lower end of the mobile platform 2. A support base 5 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating shaft 20. An anti-slip foot 19 is provided at the lower end of the support base 5. A bearing seat 3 15 is fixedly installed on one side of the support base 5. A bidirectional threaded rod 16 is rotatably connected to the end of the bearing seat 3 15. A rotating handle 17 is fixedly connected to one end of the bidirectional threaded rod 16. An extension arm 18 is threadedly connected to the surface of the bidirectional threaded rod 16. The extension arm 18 is slidably connected to the support base 5. The anti-slip foot 19 is fixedly connected to the support base 5. One end of the extended arm 18 is attached to the support base 5, and the two ends are fixedly connected to the pads 21. The pads 21 are in contact with the surface of the extended arm 18 and are used to support the extended arm 18. When the device is set in a windy area, in order to prevent the device from being blown over, the handle 17 is rotated and the two extended arms 18 threaded to the surface of the double-threaded rod 16 move outward at the same time. This increases the contact area between the device and the ground and increases the wind resistance of the device. The pads 21 are used to support the extended arm 18. When the prompting dummy 4 is blown by a strong wind, the area of ​​the prompting dummy 4 exposed to the wind will decrease after the prompting dummy 4 tilts. This prevents the prompting dummy 4 from breaking. During the rotation of the prompting dummy 4, the prompting dummy 4 drives the flange bearing 12 to move on the surface of the guide shaft 10 through the connecting arm 11. When the wind returns to normal, the spring 13 pushes the flange bearing 12 back to its original position and the prompting dummy 4 returns to an upright position.

[0026] When in use, first place the prompting dummy 4 on the clamp 3, then tighten the fastening handle 22. The clamp 3 will fix the prompting dummy 4. Then rotate and unfold the two support bases 5. The support bases 5 rotate at the lower end of the outer shell 1 through the rotating shaft 20. The support bases 5 are used to support the outer shell 1, thus completing the setup of the device.

[0027] The device is installed in areas with high vehicle and pedestrian traffic. When the motor 6 is started, the motor 6 drives the reciprocating screw 7 to rotate at the bearing seat 8. The reciprocating screw 7 drives the moving platform 2 to reciprocate on the surface of the slide rail 14. At the same time, the warning dummy 4 above the moving platform 2 also reciprocates. Warning signs or signal lights can be set on the warning dummy 4. The back-and-forth movement of the warning dummy 4 can better attract the attention of drivers or pedestrians, thereby greatly reducing the probability that drivers or pedestrians will not notice the warning signs in complex environments. The elastic sealing gasket 23 is used to seal the strip openings on both sides of the outer shell 1 to prevent external dust and other objects from entering the outer shell 1 during the movement of the moving platform 2 and affecting the normal operation of the reciprocating screw 7.

[0028] When installed in areas with strong winds, to prevent the device from being blown over, rotate the handle 17. Rotating the handle 17 causes the bidirectional threaded rod 16 to rotate at the bearing seat 15. During the rotation of the handle 17, the two extended arms 18 threaded to the surface of the bidirectional threaded rod 16 move outwards simultaneously, thus increasing the contact area between the device and the ground and increasing the device's wind resistance. The pad block 21 is used to support the extended arms 18 and strengthen the structural strength of the extended arms 18.

[0029] The warning dummy 4 is generally made of low-cost cardboard or plastic, which is easily broken in strong winds. When the warning dummy 4 is blown by strong winds, it rotates through the bearing seat 2 9. This reduces the area of ​​the warning dummy 4 exposed to the wind after it tilts, thus preventing it from breaking. During the rotation, the warning dummy 4 moves the flange bearing 12 on the surface of the guide shaft 10 through the connecting arm 11. When the wind returns to normal, the spring 13 pushes the flange bearing 12 back to its original position, and the warning dummy 4 returns to an upright position.

[0030] Through the above steps, the movable traffic warning dummy is set up in areas with high vehicle and pedestrian traffic. By moving the dummy 4 back and forth, the dummy 4 can better attract the attention of drivers or pedestrians, greatly reducing the probability that drivers or pedestrians will not notice the warning signs in complex environments, thereby reducing the probability of traffic accidents.
