KR-20260065593-A - A TRAFFIC SIGN APPARATUS FOR TRAFFIC SAFETY WITH IMPROVED VISIBILITY

Abstract

The present invention relates to a safety sign device with improved visibility, comprising a fixed part arranged to surround the perimeter of a utility pole, a support arranged to be erected from the ground on the outer side of the fixed part, and a sign installed on the top of the support to visibly indicate whether road work is being performed. Since it is installed integrally on the utility pole, there is no need for a worker to be stationed therein, thereby preventing traffic accidents involving workers and preventing serious civil accidents caused by accidents involving the general public.

1. A fixed part positioned to wrap around the perimeter of the utility pole; A support member positioned on the outer side of the above-mentioned fixed part to be erected from the ground; A sign installed on the top of the above support to visibly indicate whether road work is being performed; and battery; Includes, The above label is, A first horizontal frame in the shape of a bar; A second horizontal frame in the shape of a bar, one end of which is rotatably coupled to one end of the first horizontal frame; A first wing frame and a second wing frame rotatably coupled to the other end of the first horizontal frame at a predetermined angle; and A third wing frame and a fourth wing frame rotatably coupled to the other end of the second horizontal frame at a predetermined angle; Includes, The first wing frame and the second wing frame are, Each of the above first horizontal frames forms a predetermined angle, and The above third wing frame and the above fourth wing frame are, Each of the above-mentioned second horizontal frames forms a predetermined angle, and The above fixed part is, An upper fixing member formed by connecting multiple pipes to surround the perimeter of the above-mentioned utility pole; A lower fixing member formed by connecting a plurality of pipes to surround the perimeter of the utility pole at a position spaced apart from the upper fixing member; and An intermediate fixing member having both ends vertically connected to the upper fixing member and the lower fixing member, respectively; Includes, The above support is, A base support rod having one end connected to the side of the upper fixing member and a hollow formed inside; A first support rod inserted to be fitted into the hollow of the base support rod; A second support rod inserted to be fitted into the hollow of the first support rod; A third support rod inserted to be fitted into the hollow of the second support rod; and A fourth support rod inserted to be fitted into the hollow of the third support rod; Includes, The above base support rod is, A support fixing groove is formed longitudinally on the outer side so that a first fixing projection protruding outward from the lower end of the first support rod can move, and First support projections to fourth support projections are formed by protruding from the lower outer side of the first support rod to the fourth support rod so as to be coupled by penetrating the upper part of the base support rod and the first support rod to the third support rod, and The above label is, It includes a semiconductor light-emitting element that emits red or yellow light on one side to improve visibility, and The above battery is, A safety sign device with improved visibility characterized by using an alkaline battery, a lithium polymer battery, or a lithium-ion battery so that the semiconductor light-emitting element emits light.

Description

A traffic sign apparatus for traffic safety with improved visibility The present invention relates to a safety sign device with improved visibility, and more specifically, to a safety sign device with improved visibility that is integrally installed on a communication pole or utility pole to provide construction guidance functions and prevent serious accidents involving construction workers and signalers. Generally, when power transmission and distribution network management agencies carry out work to repair electrical facilities on highways or national roads, guidance devices are installed to provide warnings or cautions regarding the closure of specific lanes to ensure the safety of vehicles traveling on the road and maintenance workers. The guidance device provides guidance by illuminating or flashing warning lights or indicator lights indicating the driving direction to provide visibility to drivers of vehicles located at a certain distance from the work site. These guidance devices are installed as fixed units on roads or on mobile vehicles, but there are cases where they are not easily recognized due to road gradients or curves, or because they are obscured by a large number of vehicles or large vehicles. As a result, there is a problem in that vehicles traveling at a constant speed on the road are unable to quickly change from a closed lane under construction to a passable lane ahead, leading to collisions with workers or signalmen and causing fatal safety accidents. To solve these problems, Registered Utility Model No. 20-0201622 (Pole Safety Sign) was presented, but in order to adjust the height at the site, a worker must climb up the pole to install it, making installation and removal difficult. Additionally, since it lacks a self-illuminating function, it is easy to use during the day but has poor visibility at night. Figure 1 is a diagram showing the state of implementing safety signs by deploying signalmen in the conventional manner for construction work related to power distribution facilities. FIG. 2 is a figure showing a state in which a safety sign device with improved visibility according to an embodiment of the present invention is coupled to a utility pole. FIG. 3 is a diagram showing a safety sign device with improved visibility according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 4 is a diagram showing a folded state of a safety sign device with improved visibility according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 5 is a diagram showing the unfolded state of a safety sign device with improved visibility according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 6 is an enlarged view of the fixed part and the support in a safety sign device with improved visibility according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 7 is an enlarged view of the lower part of the support in a safety sign device with improved visibility according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 8 is a diagram showing a folded state of the sign portion in a safety sign device with improved visibility according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 9 is a diagram showing the horizontal frame of the sign portion unfolded in a safety sign device with improved visibility according to an embodiment of the present invention. FIG. 10 is a diagram showing the horizontal frame and wing frame of the sign portion unfolded in a safety sign device with improved visibility according to an embodiment of the present invention. Preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the attached drawings. The present invention is capable of various modifications and may have various embodiments, and specific embodiments are illustrated in the drawings and described in detail in the detailed description.
