Definitions

  • the object of this invention is to reduce the number of casualties caused by runovers.
  • the invention comprises a vertical illuminated traffic sign which serves to show pedestrian crossings without traffic lights, and which can be turned on by the pedestrians themselves.
  • the device of the invention shows a new structure that comprises a stand fixed to the road surface, which houses inside all the necessary mechanisms for its proper operation.
  • Such stand comprises an easily identifiable, timer-controlled push button, at an approximate height of one meter, the purpose of which is to turn on the device.
  • An illuminated panel is attached to the upper part of the stand, at a height of two meters. Such panel sets off the graphic sign that shows the presence of a pedestrian crossing. Furthermore, the back of the illuminated panel is foreseen so that it may be adapted to house advertising items that can be easily replaced.
  • the device will preferably be connected to the Low Voltage Network of the public road system, and meets the R.E.B.T. regulations in force.
  • an acoustic system for visually impaired pedestrians will be installed, and will be activated simultaneously with the illuminated panel.
  • One signal will be available for each direction of the traffic. If more than one unit must be installed at the same pedestrian crossing, they will be connected by means of wires running under the road surface.
  • the device will preferably be manufactured using anti-vandalism materials.
