Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cable technology, and in particular to an intelligent color-changing warning cable. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of road traffic and municipal infrastructure, overhead cables (such as power cables and communication cables) that cross roads are common overhead facilities. To ensure road safety and prevent collisions between vehicles (especially large vehicles) and cables, warning signs are usually installed on the cables to alert passing vehicles.

[0003] Currently, traditional warning methods for cables crossing roads mostly involve hanging signs, which generally rely on passive reflective materials to achieve their warning function. Passive reflective materials work by using a special surface structure to reflect light back towards the source, making them visible under illumination. In daylight with natural light or at night with external light sources such as vehicle headlights, these reflective materials reflect light, giving the warning signs a degree of visibility and thus providing a warning effect.

[0004] However, this method of warning based on passive reflective materials has significant limitations. Specifically, the warning function of passive reflective materials depends entirely on external light sources. In nighttime environments, the material can only reflect light when an external light source, such as a vehicle's headlights, accurately shines on it, allowing the driver to perceive the presence of the warning sign. In scenarios lacking external light sources, such as on remote roads where there are no streetlights and few vehicles, insufficient external light reaches the reflective material, rendering it unable to reflect light and rendering the warning sign almost invisible. Furthermore, in environments with low external light levels, such as foggy, rainy, or twilight conditions, light propagation is hindered, significantly reducing the intensity of light reaching the reflective material. This drastically weakens the reflective effect, significantly reducing the visibility of the warning sign and making it difficult to effectively alert drivers to avoid cables, posing a significant safety hazard.

[0005] Therefore, we have proposed an intelligent color-changing warning cable. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing an intelligent color-changing warning cable.

[0007] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: an intelligent color-changing warning cable, comprising a cable body, wherein a plurality of tubular sleeves are fixedly fitted on the outer surface of the cable body;

[0008] Each of the aforementioned sleeves includes two semicircular plates, and the bottom of each of the two semicircular plates is fixedly connected to an assembly base. The top of each adjacent side of the outer surface of the two assembly bases is provided with an electrical wire groove. The two semicircular plates and the two assembly bases are fixed by locking components.

[0009] Each of the two mounting bases has an assembly groove on one side of its outer surface. Each of the two assembly grooves has an elastic clip installed at the bottom. Each of the two elastic clips and the adjacent assembly groove has a warning light assembly installed together.

[0010] A photosensitive sensor is mounted on one side of the outer surface of each of the tube sleeves, and the photosensitive sensor is fixedly connected to the adjacent mounting base.

[0011] Furthermore, several anti-slip teeth are fixedly connected to adjacent sides of the outer surfaces of the two semicircular plates, and the anti-slip teeth abut against the outer wall of the cable body. The anti-slip teeth are partially pressed into the outer wall of the cable body, which has an anti-slip effect and prevents the sleeve from shifting position during use.

[0012] Furthermore, both of the locking components include two mounting plates, and the four mounting plates are fixedly connected to adjacent semicircular plates and mounting bases respectively, and adjacent mounting plates are fixed together by a number of bolt assemblies.

[0013] Furthermore, each of the bolt assemblies includes a connecting bolt, which extends through two adjacent mounting plates. The outer surface of the connecting bolt is threaded with a nut, which engages with the connecting bolt to fix the two adjacent mounting plates.

[0014] Furthermore, the two elastic clips include several springs, and the springs are fixedly installed on the inner bottom of the mounting base. The top of the several springs is fixedly connected to a clip, and the clip extends through the inner top wall of the mounting base to the interior of the mounting groove. The bottom of the clip is fixedly connected to a handle, and the handle extends through the inner bottom wall of the mounting base to the bottom and is slidably connected to the mounting base. The handle facilitates manual pulling of the clip, and the sliding between the mounting base and the clip ensures the stability of the clip's movement.

[0015] Furthermore, both warning light assemblies include mounting bases, which are positioned and embedded in the assembly slots. The bottom of the mounting base has a slot that matches a locking strip. The slot and the locking strip work together to facilitate the limiting and fixing of the mounting base.

[0016] Furthermore, an LED light strip is fixedly embedded on one side of the outer surface of the mounting base. The LED light strip has a light-emitting effect and provides a good warning effect.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] In use, this utility model achieves the active light-emitting characteristic of cable warning function through the linkage design of photosensitive sensor and LED light group, completely overcoming the limitation of traditional reflective materials that rely on external light source; at night, in foggy weather or low-light environment, it can automatically trigger the light to form a warning light strip, significantly improving the visibility and recognition of warning signs; the modular warning light group combined with the flexible clamp structure ensures the stability of the equipment and facilitates maintenance and replacement; the overall structure achieves intelligent warning function through external tube sleeve without changing the cable body, effectively solving the safety hazard of traditional passive reflective warning signs failing in no light or low light environment.

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] like Figures 1-3 As shown, a smart color-changing warning cable is disclosed, comprising a cable body 1, with several tubular sleeves fixedly fitted on the outer surface of the cable body 1.

[0027] Each of the several sleeves includes two semicircular plates 2. Several anti-slip teeth 3 are fixedly connected to adjacent sides of the outer surface of the two semicircular plates 2, and the anti-slip teeth 3 abut against the outer wall of the cable body 1. Reflective stickers can be added to the outer surface of the two semicircular plates 2 to further enhance the overall warning effect.

[0028] The bottom of each of the two semicircular plates 2 is fixedly connected to an assembly base 7. The top of each adjacent side of the outer surface of the two assembly bases 7 is provided with a wire groove 6. The two semicircular plates 2 and the two assembly bases 7 are fixed by locking components. Each of the two locking components includes two mounting plates 4, and the four mounting plates 4 are fixedly connected to the adjacent semicircular plates 2 and the assembly bases 7 respectively. The two adjacent mounting plates 4 are fixed by several bolt assemblies. The bolt assemblies include connecting bolts 12, and the connecting bolts 12 are set through the two adjacent mounting plates 4. The outer surface of the connecting bolts 12 is threaded with nuts 13. The setting of the wire groove 6 facilitates the subsequent arrangement of wires connected to the LED light strip 5.

[0029] Each of the two mounting bases 7 has a mounting groove 11 on one side of its outer surface. Each of the two mounting grooves 11 has an elastic clip installed at its bottom. Each elastic clip includes several springs 14, and the springs 14 are fixedly installed at the inner bottom of the mounting base 7. The top of the several springs 14 is fixedly connected to a clip 15, and the clip 15 extends through the inner top wall of the mounting base 7 into the interior of the mounting groove 11. The bottom of the clip 15 is fixedly connected to a handle 9, and the handle 9 extends through the inner bottom wall of the mounting base 7 to the bottom and is slidably connected to the mounting base 7. The springs 14 are stainless steel compression springs and maintain a preload of 3N after installation.

[0030] Both elastic clips are equipped with warning light groups together with the adjacent assembly slots 11. Both warning light groups include mounting bases 10, and the mounting bases 10 are positioned and embedded in the assembly slots 11. The bottom of the mounting base 10 has a slot 16, and the slot 16 matches the clip strip 15. An LED light strip 5 is fixedly embedded on one side of the outer surface of the mounting base 10. The LED light strip 5 uses high-brightness SMD2835 chip LEDs.

[0031] A photosensitive sensor 8 is mounted on one side of the outer surface of a single tube sleeve, and the photosensitive sensor 8 is fixedly connected to the adjacent mounting base 7. The photosensitive sensor 8 is a BH1750FVI digital light sensor.

[0032] Working principle: Before actual use, an existing controller needs to be installed to control the overall operation. The controller is installed on a suitable pole and electrically connected to the photosensitive sensor 8 and the LED light strip 5.

[0033] During use, the photosensitive sensor 8 monitors the light intensity of the environment around the cable body 1 in real time (such as low light conditions like nighttime or foggy days) and transmits the signal to the controller.

[0034] When the ambient light is below a set threshold, the controller activates the LED light strip 5, emitting a high-brightness red light or flashing yellow light (this can be programmed as needed; programming is existing technology and therefore will not be described in detail in this application. This application only improves the hardware). Multiple LED light strips 5 work together to form a strip warning light band.

[0035] When it is necessary to replace the LED light strip 5, pull down the handle 9. The handle 9 will cause the retaining strip 15 to move down against the elastic force of the spring 14 until it is disengaged from the slot 16. Then the mounting base 10 can be removed to complete the disassembly of the LED light strip 5. When installing the LED light strip 5, pull down the handle 9 in the same way to prevent the retaining strip 15 from protruding and affecting the mounting base 10 from entering the assembly slot 11. After the mounting base 10 is fully inserted, release the handle 9. The spring 14 will push the retaining strip 15 into the slot 16 to complete the installation of the warning light assembly.

These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to any specific implementation. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification. This specification selects and specifically describes these embodiments to better explain the principles and practical applications of this utility model, thereby enabling those skilled in the art to better understand and utilize it.
