The other inclined surface C3 in the longitudinal direction is not particularly provided with a light emitting portion, and the inclined surfaces C4 and C5 in the short direction are provided with anchor bolt holes C41 and C51 for attachment to the road surface, The light emitting device 10 is used by being fixed to an evacuation route or its surrounding road surface by using anchor bolts using the anchor bolt holes C41 and C51, or applying an adhesive or the like on the lower surface.

  FIG. 2 is a plan view showing an embodiment of the evacuation route guidance device according to the present invention formed using the light emitting device shown in FIG. In the present embodiment, when there is a possibility that a tsunami may occur on the coast S due to an earthquake, the residents near the coast S are guided to the evacuation site S on the hill by the evacuation route R1, but the evacuation route R1 A plurality of light emitting devices 10 are installed in the vicinity of the ground surface of the evacuation route R1 at appropriate intervals. The light emitting device 1 includes the refugee H1 and the light emitting unit 1 that travel along the evacuation route R to the evacuation site P in the evacuation route direction α. The light emitting device 10 is installed so as to face the inclined surface C2, and the light L emitted from the light emitting unit 1 is visually recognized by the refugee H1 while the refugee H1 is moving in the evacuation route direction α. The light L is not visible when traveling in the direction opposite to the evacuation route direction α, and when the direction in which the light L can be visually recognized is the evacuation route direction in advance, Even if there is no such recognition Flame's H1 is tend to be Susumo in the direction of sight of instinctively light L, it is possible to reduce the risk of panic state recognizes the direction to be evacuated.

  Also, for the evacuees H2 who have traveled on the road R2 that joins the evacuation route R1, the light emitting device 10 emits the evacuation route direction α of the evacuation route R1 following the evacuation location P at the junction. The continuous light spot is continued by the light L, and almost nothing can be seen along the direction opposite to the evacuation route direction α, and the refugee H2 recognizes which direction is the evacuation route. Easy. In addition, as a space | interval which installs the light-emitting device 10, although you may install in a suitable space | interval according to the width | variety, curvature, etc. of evacuation route R1, about 5-10m is suitable in a general road.

  Furthermore, since the light emitting device 10 is installed in the vicinity of the ground surface of the evacuation route R1, there is less possibility that the refugees H1 and H2 will collide with each other, and the light emitting device 10 is less likely to interfere with the evacuation. The trapezoidal shape reduces the risk of evacuation by the evacuees H1 and H2, and makes evacuation smooth. Moreover, even if a thick fog is generated, the fog is relatively thin near the ground surface, and it is easy to visually recognize the light related to guidance, and the risk that the light L from the light emitting unit 1 becomes invisible and evacuation becomes difficult can be reduced.

  Furthermore, the light emitting devices 10 installed at a plurality of intervals can be flashed synchronously, so that the power consumption can be reduced and the light emitting unit 1 can emit light for a long time, and the refugees H1 and H2 can evacuate. It becomes possible to clearly see the alignment of the route and the direction of the evacuation route. The synchronous flashing may be simultaneous flashing in which a plurality of light emitting devices 10 flash simultaneously, or may be sequential flashing in which the light emitting devices 10 flash in order toward the evacuation route direction α. As a method for performing synchronization, a known method such as a method using GPS or JIY or a control using wired or wireless can be used.

  Furthermore, the light emission color of the light L related to evacuation emitted from the light emitting unit 1 that can be visually recognized by the evacuee heading in the evacuation route direction α is preferably a color of a color that urges safety such as green or blue. For evacuees heading in the direction opposite to the evacuation route direction α, it is not necessary to provide the light emitting part 1 or the like in particular, but the light emitting part 1 provided on one inclined surface C2 in the longitudinal direction is safe such as green or blue.
