Description
Technical field
The present invention relates to warning mark, especially for the warning mark of the expression danger factor relevant with road safety.And the present invention relates to must the caution vehicular traffic sign that danger because of having an accident.For this reason, the present invention provides the convenience that strengthens and functional for interim the use.
Background technology
The warning mark of existing multiple different relevant road safety.The overwhelming majority in these warning marks is forced to use and carry out by law and other governmental body, in order to the potential danger of caution public attention.Usually, freight department, police, fire department, rescue department and similar department use all that different utensils comes the caution accident, cast anchor vehicle and other jeopardize the emergency situation of flow of traffic.
Usually, under situation about having an accident, the very first time appears at the on-the-spot public and can at first notice the dangerous situation that jeopardizes flow of traffic.Yet generally speaking, the public does not equip high quality or multi-form caution utensil, therefore needs use to substitute utensil usually temporarily and serves as warning mark, to remind other chaufeurs.Often cause the visiblity of primary danger to reduce situation, also need warn other chaufeurs by the public.Yet not by means of correct facility, any utensil that temporarily substitutes that is used for alerting drivers does not possess the basic skills that improves visiblity, therefore may be almost without any effect.
Yet the caution utensil of the commercial offers of using under this environment is existing the sale on market, and also can buy sometimes for the public.Usually, the general shape triangular in shape of these warning marks, and have a reflecting surface, thus chaufeur can identify described danger zone near the danger zone time.An example of this sign is, some automaker is placed on sign the inboard of the case cover of vehicle, like this, after the public finds danger, car can be parked in the safety distance place certain (20m recommends in United Nations), and case cover is lifted to show the warning mark of the high observability on it apart from the danger zone.Yet when rainy, if do not wish to cause rainwater to enter in the boot because of lifting case cover, this utensil just can not use.In any case it is not extensive that this warning mark is used in the automaker, and other not the public of steering vehicle can not be equipped with this sign.
Some similar high observability warning tags also, by linking to each other with bracket with foldable, they can be erected on the road surface individually.Owing to can collect and expansion when needed, so they are comparatively convenient.Yet because they are placed on the pavement-height, therefore sign visiblity for oncoming flow of traffic is lower, particularly for higher vehicle of ground Clearance.In addition, the chaufeur of oncoming vehicle just can be noticed warning mark after usually only can vehicle in front shifting out from its fan-shaped visual field, and this may cause very near apart from the danger zone.
The warning tag of another kind of commercial offers has magnetic base, and wherein sign can be attached to an object of being made by ferromagnetic material for example on automobile side, street sign indicator or other flat surfaces.Yet this same needs are placed easily with the flat surfaces that keeps observability and always can not be obtained, therefore make magnetic base in actual applications inconvenience place and can't use.
Therefore, such warning tag need be provided, it can be collected in the vehicle easily, and can be used in when needed on large-scale surface and the object, thereby this warning tag can be placed on position best for the visiblity of oncoming flow of traffic.
Summary of the invention
Therefore, the objective of the invention is to make warning tag, thereby make observability the best of warning tag attached to the maximization of the possibility on the object.
For this reason, the invention provides a kind of being used for attached to the warning mark on the object, it comprises front side display surface, rear side magnetic face and has the discrete component that strengthens magnetic, if described object has crooked ferromagnetic fraction, then the rear side magnetic face of warning mark can be fixed on this curved surface, if it is ferromagnetic having only a little position on the described object, then described discrete component can be fixed on warning mark on the described little position.
The existing known warning mark that can make has the magnetic attachment part, so that they can be fixed on the smooth ferrimagnetism surface, this smooth ferrimagnetism surface may be found near the danger zone easily.Yet, have the effect of its expection in order to make warning mark, should make its visiblity maximization, to avoid finding the dangerous extra accident that causes too late because of chaufeur for oncoming vehicle.For this reason, the present invention has adopted recent magnetic technology so that sign of the present invention can be applicable the chance maximization.The modal application of warning mark is on the vehicle of parking attached to routine.Because the many plates on the vehicle round those plates of boot, are crooked especially, therefore be difficult to fixedly adhere to the warning mark of prior art, so they can not successfully be applied in this place usually.Yet the present invention can be fixed on warning mark on the curved surface of ferromagnetic material.Therefore, any auto panel all can be selected to use by the user, so that maximize for the visiblity of oncoming vehicle.
In a preferred embodiment, warning mark itself is made by the magnetic material of deflection, and the one side has applied the high-visibility surface of reflex-reflective material and other types, and its opposition side is used to be contained in curved surface.The additional advantage that the preferred embodiment is brought is, if warning mark is made by the magnetic material of deflection, then its can be very light and has and reel required enough flexiblely, thereby can be fixed on easily on automobile trunk or the tool box.
Run into such environment sometimes, promptly can make the maximized best warning mark of visiblity position is not big ferrimagnetism surface, neither aforementioned bending or other forms of surface.On the contrary, have unique object at ferrimagnetism position may be little only be bolt cap, the iron wire guardrail of common arrangement, the bicycle handle bar of stretching out from wooden beam, perhaps or even car jack.In these cases, though exist the ferrimagnetism position, do not provide the surface that can supply the warning mark firm attachment of prior art for use.Should be pointed out that the warning mark placed near the road surface must be supported lives, this be still because will carry himself weight, also will other vehicles through and produce wind or under the storm condition, keep fixedly securing.The warning mark of prior art can not be used for any above-mentioned object.Therefore, the sign of prior art can cause visiblity to descend when being placed on non-optimum position, thereby may almost or fully can not play a role.Have the discrete component that strengthens magnetic owing to the invention provides, therefore compare with the warning mark of prior art, the user places warning mark in the scope that greatly increases.
In a further advantageous embodiment, discrete component can be at least one superpower magnet, and it is so positioned, promptly can be with warning mark attached on the little ferromagnetic object.Under many circumstances, the place that is most appropriate to place warning mark is not on the road surface, neither be on bigger vehicle itself or big object, but supporting guardrail or form on the pillar of roadblock.If such pillar is made by timber, then only operational ferrimagnetism position may be the bolt cap that stretches out from pillar.The ferrimagnetism warning mark of prior art can not be supported on such protrusion, therefore can only abandon the optimum position.Yet the present invention allows to select such position, therefore obviously is better than prior art.
It is the form of 4200 Gausses' button shaped magnet that superpower magnet can adopt Surface field intensity, and it can provide enough intensity, with warning mark is remained on opening of automobile the thin edges of case cover on.In this example, open and after warning mark adhered to, this sign was positioned in about two meters, top, road surface usually, so that provide excellent visiblity for oncoming flow of traffic at case cover.
In a further advantageous embodiment, superpower magnet can be a breakaway-element, so warning mark can be placed between magnet and the attachment point.
Perhaps, magnet can be combined on the rear surface of warning mark, so that be attached directly on the attachment point.
In another embodiment of the present invention, if wish warning mark is placed on apart from the danger zone at a distance, but there is not installation position easily, then can be with car jack as ferromagnetic object, to adhere to warning mark.Because car jack is not used in the big flat surfaces of the magnetic warning mark that adheres to prior art, therefore can not be used for previously used warning mark.Yet the present invention can realize this adhering to, and therefore compares with prior art, has further strengthened practicality of the present invention.

Fig. 3 is the lateral plan of a kind of application according to warning mark of the present invention shown in Figure 1.
The specific embodiment
Fig. 1 shows according to warning mark 1 of the present invention, and its general shape is the equilateral triangle that the length of side is approximately 290mm.Warning mark 1 mainly has the elasticity material property and elastic deflection magnetic material is made by a kind of.Scribble the diamond level reflex-reflective material of 3M company on the display surface of warning mark 1, and arrange, in order to the expression dangerous situation with the oriented approach of generally acknowledging in the world.Specifically, be provided with the outer rim 2 that width is 30mm around the periphery of warning mark 1, this outer rim 2 is made for " vision the is beautiful " reflecting sheet material (Scotchlite Reflective Sheeting) of " red 3992 " by the color code of 3M company.Be provided with another frame 3 that is manufactured from the same material in this frame, the color code of this material is " fluorescent orange LDP3924F/G ", and the width of this second frame 3 is 12mm.Fill out part 8 in this second frame 3 being, its color code is " silver 3870/2870 ".At last, be provided with " exclamation mark " of color code in the part 8 interior filling out for " black 1178 ".The exclamation mark of filling out part 8 and central black in the appreciiable frame 2,3 of highly reflective reaches forms sharp contrast, and they are acknowledged as the dangerous caution symbol of expression together in the world.Should be pointed out that the front is a kind of feasible layout to the description of display surface, be applied to when of the present invention that these are described should not limit the different possibilities of arranging of display surface at display surface.
Superpower magnet 7 is the button shaped magnets that are of a size of 10mm * 10mm, and its Surface field intensity is 4200 Gausses, so that it has than the remarkable stronger magnetic of the magnetic of the deflection magnetic material that is used to make warning mark 1.In the preferred embodiment, superpower magnet 7 can optionally separate from warning mark.In use, warning mark 1 is placed on an attachment point top, and this attachment point is little ferromagnetic object.Then, superpower magnet 7 be placed on the warning mark 1 with the cooresponding display surface of attachment point on.Like this, warning mark 1 will be held in position, and is clamped between superpower magnet 7 and the attachment point.
Fig. 2 shows the back side 6, and it is used for warning mark 1 attached to the ferromagnetic object (not shown).
Critical aspects of the present invention is the combination of following factor: the overall magnetic of warning mark enables to be attracted on the ferrimagnetism surface; Because whole warning mark 1 has used the magnetic material of deflection, thereby can be with warning mark 1 attached on the curved surface; At last, added superpower magnet 7.Can not provide big ferrimagnetism surface with the situation of adhering to warning mark 1 under owing to can place superpower magnet 7, therefore any ferromagnetic object no matter be big or little, all can be used to adhere to warning mark.
The typical placement location of the warning mark of prior art comprises the inside face of the case cover of automobile, and is placed on the support on road surface or the roof.Though the best results of these positions under some environment, such was the case with.The position best for observability often do not coincide with smooth ferrimagnetism surface location.Because the magnetic warning tag of prior art can not provide attached to the deflection on the curved surface, so they are confined to be applied on the smooth ferrimagnetism surface.
A vehicle of parking 11 has been shown among Fig. 3, and it is positioned at the position to oncoming Warning for vehicle danger.The case cover 9 of vehicle 11 is opened fully, on the front edge 12 of a warning mark 1 according to the present invention attached to case cover 9.Layout among Fig. 3 is an example of application of the present invention, and this can't use in the warning mark of prior art.In this example, the car owner of vehicle 11 is with on the front edge 12 of warning mark 1 attached to case cover 9, to attempt making warning mark 1 have maximum visiblity.This point can realize like this, promptly the display surface 5 of warning mark 1 from vehicle 11 towards the rear.Under normal circumstances, the magnetic attraction of the magnetic material of formation warning tag 1 may be not enough to keep with the warning mark firm attachment on the thin edges 12 of case cover 9.Therefore, superpower magnet 7 is positioned in a side opposite with edge 12, thereby warning mark 1 is fixed between described magnet 7 and the edge 12.Compare with the warning mark of similar installation on the inside face 10 that is located at case cover 9, the warning mark in this example has tangible advantage.The height at edge 12 is greater than the position of inside face 10, thereby the visiblity of warning mark 1 can improve, and function of the present invention can strengthen.
In addition, the warning mark among the present invention can be used and position that prior art can not be used comprises:
A. attached on the car jack, thereby adopt on being preferably mounted at the road surface time.Since the present invention can each position attached to jack on, therefore do not need to be equipped with specially support.
B. on the crooked back plate attached to automobile.When rainy and chaufeur did not wish to open case cover, the present invention also can be attached on the automobile.
If C. vehicle is a MPV (Multi-Purpose Vehicle), vehicle frame is mainly made by timber thereafter, and then the present invention also can be installed on bolt cap or the bearing frame by superpower magnet.
If D. vehicle is bicycle or motor bike, warning mark then of the present invention can be attached on the vehicle frame.In this case, be particularly suitable for adopting the present invention, because the magnetic material in the warning mark of the present invention has flexibility,, thereby make warning mark of the present invention to be carried on easily in bicycle or the motor bike so that warning mark can fold or curl.
