[Industrial applications]

 This invention relates to a portable signal light used for traffic control and the like.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 In general, automobiles must always have smoke lights or red indicator lights to warn other vehicles in the event of an accident, etc. Use a portable signal light that can flash only red or green as appropriate.

A conventional portable signal lamp capable of emitting two-color signal lamps can also be used as a flashlight, and as shown in FIG. Book slide knobs 2, 3 and 4 are provided in parallel so as to be slidable in the axial direction.

A red tube 5 is connected to the slide knob 2, a green tube 6 is connected to the slide knob 4, and the red tube 5 is fitted to the outside of the green tube 6 in a double manner inside and outside. Has become.

The slide knob 3 is for turning on or off the lamp 7, and is fixed to a conductor plate connected to the negative electrode (−) of the dry battery housed inside the grip cylinder shaft 1 and this conductor plate. The lamp 7 is fixed to the socket. A contact piece is projected on the socket, and a conductor plate that can be connected to and separated from the contact piece is connected to the plus electrode (+) of the dry battery and is protruded in the axial direction by a predetermined length.

The red cylinder 5 and the green cylinder 6 are housed in a transparent squirt 8, the squirt 8 is screwed and fixed to the end of the grip cylinder shaft 1, and the end of the squirt 8 has a through hole through which the lamp 7 goes in and out. A mirror cone 10 having an opening 9 is fitted therein, and a transparent lens 11 is fixed by a ring body 12.

Therefore, when red light is emitted, when the slide knob 2 of the red tube 5 is pushed forward and the slide knob 3 is pushed out by half of the stroke, the (+) side conductor plate comes into contact with the contact piece of the socket. As a result, the lamp 7 lights up in the red tube 5 and emits red light.

To emit green light after this, the slide knob 2 may be operated in the opposite direction to retract the red tube 5, and then the slide knob 4 may be pushed forward. Since the lamp 7 has been lit by the above operation, it immediately emits green light.

When used as a flashlight, when the slide knob 3 is pushed forward by the full stroke, the lamp 7 enters the mirror cone 10 through the through hole 9 and the light is emitted forward from the transparent lens 11. It is that.

[0010]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 However, according to the above-mentioned conventional portable signal light, since there are three slide knobs, it is easy to make a mistake in the switch operation, and when it is necessary to emit red light, green light is likely to appear or vice versa, which may cause traffic control. Since it is easy to make mistakes such as this, we had to check each time when making it emit light.

Therefore, the present invention provides a portable signal light in which one slide knob is provided to facilitate operation and the red light and the green light are less likely to be mistaken.

[0012]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 At the end of the grip cylinder shaft that stores the dry batteries, squirts that are divided into at least two colors in the axial direction are connected with a shielding film interposed, and the outermost squirt housing the mirror cone with a through hole. A slide knob with a long stroke was provided on the outer peripheral surface of the grip cylinder shaft, and a lamp provided on a conductor plate connected to the slide knob was configured to move to the center of the squirt and inside the mirror surface cone and to be able to light up respectively. A portable signal light characterized by the following.

[0013]

[Action]

 By pushing out the slide knob in three steps, it is possible to easily and easily perform the operation of first dividing the color of the emitted light into two colors and finally changing to front irradiation.

[0014]

【Example】

 An embodiment of this invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 shows an embodiment of the present invention, in which a squirt 23 divided into two colors, a red cylinder 21 and a green cylinder 22, is provided at the front end of a grip cylinder shaft 20 for accommodating a predetermined number of dry batteries 19 in a replaceable manner. It has been screwed. At the end of the green tube 22, a transparent lens 24 and a mirror surface cone 25 having a through hole 24a are fitted and fixed by a ring 26, and a shielding film 27 is sandwiched between the red tube 21 and the green tube 22. The red cylinder 21 and the green cylinder 22 are connected together and have a cross section that bulges outward in a drum shape so that each of them functions as a convex lens.

A slide knob 28 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the grip cylinder shaft 20 so as to be slidable in the axial direction, and the slide knob 28 has a length of about half of the grip cylinder shaft 20 and has a stroke. The conductor plate 29 is formed to be long and is connected to the lower portion thereof, and the conductor plate 29 is connected to the socket 31 for fixing the lamp 30.

The conductor plate 29 is connected to the negative electrode (−) of the dry battery 19 and is in contact with the conductor plate 32 extending over the entire length of the grip cylinder shaft 20. The conductor plate 32 is in contact with a conductor plate 35 that is electrically connected to a spring 34 housed in a cap 33 that is screwed to the tail end of the grip cylinder shaft 20. Then, a conductor plate 36 connected to the positive electrode (+) of the dry battery 19 is axially projected with a predetermined length, and a contact piece 37 slidably contacting the conductor plate 36 is projected on the socket 31 to contact the lamp 30. is doing.

Therefore, in the state of FIG. 1, when the slide knob 28 is pushed forward by one-third of its stroke (direction of arrow A), the contact piece 37 comes into contact with the conductor plate 36 and the lamp 30 is turned on. When it is set in the center of the red tube 21, the squirts 23 develop red color, and when the lamp 30 moves to the center of the green tube 23 by further pushing it out, it emits green light. Then, when the slide knob 28 is pushed out to the maximum extent, the lamp 30 enters the inside of the mirror cone 25 through the through hole 25a, and the transparent lens 24 emits light forward.

In such a light emission, when red or green light is emitted, the shielding film 27 is interposed between the red tube 21 and the green tube 22, so that the green tube 22 is emitted when the red light is emitted. It does not emit light, and conversely, the red tube 21 does not emit light when green light is emitted.

Thus, by increasing the moving stroke of the lamp 30 and reciprocating the slide knob 28 in the axial direction, red or green light is emitted in the direction orthogonal to the axis of the red tube 21 and the green tube 22 and the forward direction. Since it is now possible to selectively use white light for different purposes, it is possible to reduce mistakes in the emission color.

[0020]

[Effect of device]

 According to the invention described above, the squirts of at least two colors are axially connected to each other through the shielding film, and the lamp is moved between the squirts by the stepwise pushing operation of one slide knob. Since it is possible to turn on the light, the structure of the slide knob is simplified compared to the conventional one having three slide knobs, the operation is extremely easy, and the emission color is not mistaken.

Further, as compared with a conventional one having a red tube and a green tube having an inner / outer dual structure, the red tube and the green tube are fixed and do not move, so that the overall configuration is simple. Therefore, the structure is extremely simplified and can be provided at a low cost.
