[0022] This embodiment provides a solar-powered ground-mounted gas warning sign post, such as... Figures 1 to 4As shown, this invention addresses the problem of existing gas warning posts being invisible at night, threatening the safe operation of gas pipelines, thus ensuring that gas pipelines are not damaged due to undetected presence. Specifically, the solar-powered ground-mounted gas warning post includes a support base 300, a warning component 200, and a protective component 100. The support base 300 is cylindrical and installed in the ground above the gas pipeline. It provides a mounting position and support for the warning component 200 within the post, separating it from the soil to prevent soil interference and potential malfunction. The support base 300 is made of aluminum alloy, maintaining sufficient strength while isolating the warning component 200 from the soil environment. The warning component 200 is installed within the support base 300 and emits light by receiving solar energy, alerting the presence of a gas pipeline. This continuous illumination by the warning component 200 provides real-time warning of a gas pipeline, preventing damage to the pipeline caused by construction work or other unforeseen circumstances. The warning component 200 includes a solar cell 230 and a light-emitting element 210. The solar cell 230 is installed within the support base 300 to store solar energy. Under sunlight, the solar cell 230 converts solar energy into electrical energy for storage, simultaneously powering the light-emitting element 210. At night or in the absence of sunlight, the light-emitting element 210 is powered by the electrical energy stored in the battery, ensuring continuous illumination to warn of gas pipelines in its location. The solar cell 230 has a specification of 2.5V / 180mAh. To further store the electrical energy generated by the solar cell 230, a rechargeable battery is also provided. The rechargeable battery is electrically connected to the solar cell 230 and has a specification of 1.2V / 1200mAh nickel-metal hydride high-temperature resistant battery. The light-emitting element 210 is installed inside the support base 300 and is positioned next to the solar cell 230. The light-emitting element 210 is electrically connected to the solar cell 230 so that the solar cell 230 drives the light-emitting element 210 to emit light, maintaining a continuous light-emitting state. This ensures that the warning post is clearly visible even at night or in poor lighting conditions, allowing it to provide real-time warnings and preventing damage to gas pipelines during construction work. The protective component 100 is installed on the side of the support base 300 facing the sky to protect the warning component 200 inside the support base 300. Since the warning post is exposed to the external environment, it is subject to rain, sun exposure, and impacts from falling rocks or other factors. Therefore, the protective component 100 is necessary to protect the warning component 200 from external damage, ensuring its stable operation.

[0023] In addition, to enable the warning component 200 to emit light while receiving solar energy, it can also use other markings to warn of the gas pipeline at its location. A signboard 220 is installed above the light-emitting element 210. The signboard 220 has a perforated groove 221 that corresponds to the light-emitting element 210 and the solar cell 230. The perforated groove 221 prevents the solar cell 230 and the light-emitting element 210 from being blocked, ensuring that the solar cell 230 can receive sunlight and convert it into electricity, and that the light emitted by the light-emitting element 210 can illuminate the warning sign post. The signboard 220 has corresponding text, such as the company responsible for managing the gas pipeline, their contact information, and warning text like "High-pressure gas, excavation prohibited." This allows other personnel to immediately recognize the presence of a gas pipeline when they see the warning sign post, preventing construction or operations that could affect the safety of the gas pipeline, and also enabling them to contact the company managing the gas pipeline.

[0024] Furthermore, to enable the light-emitting element 210 to emit light, it includes a display base 211 and a display lamp 212. The display base 211 is mounted next to the solar cell 230, providing support for the display lamp 212. The display lamp 212 emits light; it is an ultra-bright, anti-fog LED, ensuring the warning post remains visible even in foggy conditions, thus providing real-time warnings for the gas pipeline at its location. Simultaneously, the display lamp 212 is angled, maintaining a certain angle with the plane, thereby increasing its illumination range and making the warning post more easily visible.

[0025] In this application, the light-emitting element 210 is powered by the solar cell 230, enabling the light-emitting element 210 to emit light. Therefore, in order to ensure a stable connection between the light-emitting element 210 and the solar cell 230, the light-emitting element 210 is provided with a first connecting groove 213, which is specifically formed on the display base 211. Thus, the display lamp 212 is also electrically connected to the display base 211. Figure 4 As shown, correspondingly, the solar cell 230 is provided with a first connector 231, which is inserted into the first connecting groove 213 so that the solar cell 230 is electrically connected to the light-emitting element 210, and the solar cell 230 can supply power to the light-emitting element 210, so that electrical energy is transmitted from the solar cell 230 to the indicator light 212, and finally the light is lit and the indicator light 212 is kept on.

[0026] The protective assembly 100 includes a protective cover 110 and mounting screws 120. The protective cover 110 is mounted above the signboard 220. To allow light emitted from the indicator light 212 to pass through the protective cover 110 and to ensure the content of the signboard 220 is clearly visible, the protective cover 110 is made of high-strength polycarbonate and has a transparent design, allowing light to pass through while still displaying the content on the signboard 220. The mounting screws 120 are used to fix the protective cover 110 to the support base 300. Specifically, the mounting screws 120 are threaded into the protective cover 110, the signboard 220, and the support base 300 in sequence. When the warning sign post needs to be removed for maintenance, the mounting screws 120 are unscrewed from the support base 300, and then pulled out from the support base 300, the signboard 220, and the protective cover 110 in sequence to release the fixation on the protective cover 110.

[0027] The support base 300 includes a first mounting groove 310, a second mounting groove 320, and a mounting surface 330. The first mounting groove 310 is used for mounting the solar cell 230. The second mounting groove 320 is disposed on both sides of the first mounting groove 310 and is used for mounting the light-emitting element 210. The mounting surface 330 is used for mounting the sign plate 220. In order to maintain an electrical connection between the light-emitting element 210 and the solar cell 230, the first mounting groove 310 and the second mounting groove 320 are interconnected. In this application, two light-emitting elements 210 are provided. Therefore, the first mounting groove 310 and the second mounting groove 320 are combined to form a cross shape. In other embodiments, the first mounting groove 310 and the second mounting groove 320 can be arranged differently as needed.

[0028] Furthermore, the mounting surface 330 is provided with a plurality of first mounting holes 331, and the marking plate 220 is provided with a plurality of second mounting holes 222. The first mounting holes 331 and the second mounting holes 222 correspond to each other and are used for threaded connection with the mounting screws 120. Specifically, in this application, four first mounting holes 331 and four second mounting holes 222 are provided. Correspondingly, four mounting screws 120 are also provided. Each mounting screw 120 corresponds to one of the first mounting holes 331 and one of the second mounting holes 222. The first mounting holes 331 and the second mounting holes 222 are centrally symmetrical with respect to the central axis of the support base 300, so as to better install the protective cover plate 110 on the support base 300 and strengthen the fixing of the protective cover plate 110 by the mounting screws 120.

[0029] Additionally, a mounting pin 340 is provided on the side of the support base 300 facing away from the warning component 200. The mounting pin 340 penetrates the ground to fix the support base 300 in place. To further hold the support base 300 in place, an adhesive surface 350 is also provided on the side of the support base 300 facing away from the warning component 200. The adhesive surface 350 is in contact with the ground, thereby strengthening the connection between the support base 300 and the ground.

[0030] To prevent the support base 300 from being deformed by the force of the soil within the ground, a number of reinforcing ribs 360 are provided around the outer ring of the support base 300. The reinforcing ribs 360 are arranged around the side of the support base 300 to enhance the structural strength of the support base 300. This creates an uneven surface on the side of the support base 300, preventing the force of the soil from being concentrated at a single location on the support base 300.

[0031] Therefore, when using a solar-powered ground gas warning sign post according to this application to warn of gas pipelines, first determine the installation position of the warning sign post, drill a hole at the position to form the installation position of the warning sign post, then put the solar cell 230 into the first mounting groove 310, put the light-emitting element 210 into the second mounting groove 320, and at the same time install the sign plate 220 on the mounting surface 330. Next, cover the sign plate 220 with the protective cover plate 110, and let the mounting screws 120 pass through the first mounting hole 331 and the second mounting hole 222 in sequence to complete the fixing of the protective cover plate 110. Finally, insert the mounting nail 340 into the installation position on the ground to complete the installation of the solar-powered ground gas warning sign post.

[0032] It should be understood that the application of this utility model is not limited to the examples above. Those skilled in the art can make improvements or modifications based on the above description, and all such improvements and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
