Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to warning lights, specifically to an automatic upward-facing warning light for gas construction. Background Technology

[0002] During the construction of gas pipeline projects, warning signs, including warning lights and traffic guidance signs, need to be set up around the construction roads to ensure traffic safety. Warning lights are especially crucial at night, serving as an essential warning for vehicles on the road. In actual construction, warning lights are often powered by matching solar power devices and are secured to the steel pipes of the guidance signs or the fencing panels using plastic cable ties.

[0003] During the use of warning lights, due to factors such as loosening of cable ties, frequent wind blowing, and bumping into them, the warning lights often cannot ensure that the solar panels are always facing upwards, but instead tilt downwards, affecting the power supply of the solar panels and preventing the warning lights from fully exerting their due warning function at night. Therefore, a solution is needed to automatically make the warning lights face upwards to ensure the supply of solar power. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the above-mentioned problems and provide an automatic upward-facing warning light for gas construction. This warning light adopts a non-fixed installation method and can automatically face upward, thereby increasing the amount of solar power generated.

[0005] The objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0006] An automatic upward-facing warning light for gas construction includes a warning light body, a solar panel, and a surrounding ring. The solar panel is disposed on the top of the warning light body, and the warning light body is rotatably connected inside the surrounding ring. The height of the center of gravity of the warning light body is lower than the height of the rotation center of the warning light body. The surrounding ring is fixedly mounted on a steel pipe.

[0007] The working principle of the above-mentioned automatic upward-facing warning light for gas construction is as follows:

[0008] When in operation, the warning light body is rotatably connected to the surrounding ring, with its center of gravity positioned below the center of rotation. This ensures that even if the warning light tilts due to strong winds, impacts, or other reasons, it will automatically return to an upright position under gravity, much like a self-righting toy. As the warning light body returns to its upright position, the top solar panel naturally faces upwards, continuously and efficiently receiving sunlight to ensure sufficient internal energy storage, allowing the warning light to illuminate normally at night.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, threaded holes are provided on both sides of the warning light body, and the height of the threaded holes is higher than the height of the center of gravity of the warning light body.

[0010] Furthermore, both sides of the surrounding ring are provided with mounting bolts for connecting to the threaded holes of the warning light body.

[0011] By creating threaded holes on both sides of the warning light body that are positioned higher than its center of gravity, and connecting them with mounting bolts on both sides of the ring, a reliable rotational connection can be achieved while ensuring that the center of gravity of the warning light body is not affected by the mounting structure, thereby guaranteeing the stability and consistency of its automatic return function.

[0012] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the surrounding ring is composed of ferrous material or other hard material.

[0013] Furthermore, the outer side of the surrounding ring is provided with a paint layer or a plastic coating layer to reduce corrosion of ferrous or metallic materials.

[0014] The above structure uses a ring made of hard materials such as iron, with a paint or plastic coating on the outside. This ensures the strength and durability of the overall structure, effectively slows down the corrosion and aging of materials in outdoor environments, and extends the service life.

[0015] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the height of the inner ring of the surrounding ring is greater than twice the distance from the rotation center of the warning light body to the bottom of the warning light body. This provides ample space for the warning light to swing freely after tilting, preventing interference with the surrounding ring and ensuring a smooth and unobstructed automatic return-to-center process.

[0016] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the turning points of the surrounding ring are all provided with rounded corner structures to reduce potential injury to personnel when handling or being scratched.

[0017] In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the bottom of the surrounding ring is provided with a mounting hole, which is fixedly connected to the steel pipe by a strap. By providing a mounting hole at the bottom of the surrounding ring, it is easy to flexibly and reliably fix it to steel pipes of different diameters by strapping, which not only adapts to diverse installation conditions on construction sites, but also facilitates disassembly and reuse, thus enhancing the practicality and adaptability of the warning light.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0019] 1. The warning light body of this utility model is rotatably connected in the ring. If the warning light is tilted due to strong winds, collisions, or other reasons, the warning light body will automatically straighten to a vertical position under its own gravity, which is conducive to continuous and efficient reception of sunlight, increasing solar power generation, and ensuring that the warning light can work stably for a long time at night.

[0020] 2. It has a simple structure, consumes no additional energy, and adapts to complex outdoor environments by relying on gravity for adaptive adjustment, thus reducing the frequency of maintenance. Attached Figure Description

[0024] To enable those skilled in the art to fully understand the technical solution of this utility model, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings, but the implementation of this utility model is not limited thereto.

[0025] Combination Figures 1-3 The automatic upward-facing warning light for gas construction in this embodiment includes a warning light body 1, a solar panel, and a surrounding ring 2. The solar panel is located on the top of the warning light body 1. The warning light body 1 is rotatably connected to the inside of the surrounding ring 2. The height of the center of gravity of the warning light body 1 is lower than the height of the rotation center of the warning light body 1. The surrounding ring 2 is fixedly mounted on a steel pipe 3.

[0026] Combination Figures 1-3 The warning light body 1 has threaded holes on both sides, and the height of the threaded holes is higher than the height of the center of gravity of the warning light body 1.

[0027] Furthermore, both sides of the surrounding ring 2 are provided with mounting bolts 4 for connecting to the threaded holes of the warning light body 1.

[0028] By opening threaded holes on both sides of the warning light body 1 at a position higher than its center of gravity, and connecting them with mounting bolts 4 on both sides of the surrounding ring 2, a reliable rotational connection can be achieved while ensuring that the center of gravity of the warning light body 1 is not affected by the installation structure, thereby ensuring the stability and consistency of its automatic return function.

[0029] Specifically, the surrounding ring 2 is made of ferrous or other hard materials. Furthermore, the outer side of the surrounding ring 2 is provided with a paint layer or a plastic coating layer to reduce corrosion of the ferrous or metallic materials.

[0030] Through the above structure, the surrounding ring 2 is made of hard materials such as iron, and a paint layer or plastic coating layer is provided on the outside, which not only ensures the strength and durability of the overall structure, but also effectively slows down the corrosion and aging of materials in the outdoor environment, and extends the service life.

[0031] Specifically, the height of the inner ring 2 is greater than twice the distance from the rotation center of the warning light body 1 to the bottom of the warning light body 1. This provides ample space for the warning light to swing freely after tilting, avoids interference with the ring 2, and ensures a smooth and unobstructed automatic return process.

[0032] Specifically, the turning points of the surrounding ring 2 are all equipped with rounded corner structures to reduce potential injury to personnel when handling or being scratched.

[0033] Combination Figures 1-3 The bottom of the surrounding ring 2 is provided with a mounting hole 5, which is fixedly connected to the steel pipe 3 by a strap 6. By providing a mounting hole 5 at the bottom of the surrounding ring 2, it is easy to flexibly and reliably fix it to steel pipes 3 of different diameters by strap 6, which not only adapts to the diverse installation conditions on the construction site, but also facilitates disassembly and reuse, thus enhancing the practicality and adaptability of the warning light.

[0034] Of course, in addition to straps and mounting holes, other fixed installation methods can also be used, referring to existing technologies.

[0035] Combination Figures 1-3 The working principle of the above-mentioned automatic upward-facing warning light for gas construction is as follows:

[0036] During operation, the warning light body 1 is rotatably connected to the surrounding ring 2, with its center of gravity positioned below the center of rotation. This ensures that even if the warning light tilts due to strong winds, impacts, or other reasons, it will automatically return to an upright position under gravity, much like a self-righting toy. As the warning light body 1 returns to its upright position, the top solar panel naturally faces upwards, continuously and efficiently receiving sunlight to ensure sufficient internal energy storage, allowing the warning light to illuminate normally at night.

[0037] The above are preferred embodiments of the present utility model, but the embodiments of the present utility model are not limited to the above content. Any changes, modifications, substitutions, combinations, or simplifications made without departing from the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be considered equivalent substitutions and shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
