Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a method in which a police officer, a traffic patrol officer, a security officer, or the like holds a hand to guide or stop a pedestrian or a car on a road, a parking lot, a construction site or the like. The present invention relates to a portable signal light used for raising or shaking.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A portable signal light is obtained by connecting a light-emitting portion, which is a lighting component such as a light bulb or a fluorescent lamp, covered with a plastic cover, to a grip portion, and a police officer, a traffic patrol officer or the like holds the grip portion by hand. In such a case, the pedestrian, the car, and the like are guided or stopped by raising or shaking the lighting components in a lit state. Here, in the conventional portable signal light, the cover is colored in one color such as red, and the light emitting portion is made to emit light in red or the like so that the pedestrian or the driver should follow the instruction to guide or stop. Was being evoked.

[0003]

However, since the cover of the conventional portable signal light is colored one color such as red, even when giving instructions to guide a pedestrian or a car, the pedestrian or the driver may be instructed. It was easy to misinterpret it as a stop instruction, which hindered smooth guidance.

The present invention has been made in view of such a conventional problem, and an object of the present invention is to alert a pedestrian, a driver, or the like, in response to an instruction of a police officer, a traffic patrol officer, or the like. And a simple and inexpensive portable signal light is provided.

[0005]

In order to achieve the above object, the present invention supports at least two light-emitting bodies that emit different colored light on a support and lights the light-emitting bodies on the support. Provided is a portable signal lamp having a lighting button for turning on.

In the above portable signal light, it is preferable that the support is bent to form the grip portion. If the grip portion is formed in this way, the portable signal light can be held with the arm slightly lowered, that is, with less arm fatigue.

[0007]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

As shown in FIG. 1, the portable signal lamp 1 is composed of a hollow cylindrical support 2 and two light emitters 3 and 4 attached to the support 2.

The support 2 is a hollow cylindrical body made of plastic or metal, and has an upper portion as a mounting portion 5 and a lower portion as a grip portion 6.

In this embodiment, the grip portion 6 is attached to the mounting portion 5.
Is bent at a predetermined angle α with respect to the mounting portion 5 and is set to about 20 ° to 60 °.

A bent portion 7 that transitions from the mounting portion 5 to the grip portion 6.
A lighting button 8 for lighting the light-emitting body 3 on the outer peripheral surface in the vicinity,
A light button 9 for turning on the light-emitting body 4 and a light-off button 10 for turning off the light-emitting bodies 3, 4 are provided. In the figure, these buttons are arranged at positions where it is easy to operate with the index finger, but it is possible to change them to positions where it is easy to operate with the thumb and other parts.

Further, as shown in FIG. 2, a partition wall 11 is provided in the grip portion 6 to define a battery storage space 11, and a bottom lid 13 can be screwed into the lower end portion. Battery storage space 12
By accommodating the batteries 14 and 14 into the bottom lid 13 and screwing the bottom lid 13, the terminals of the battery 14 are either leaf spring terminals 15 fixed to the partition wall 11 or spiral springs fixed to the bottom lid 13. The light-emitting bodies 3 and 4 can be supplied with power by contacting the terminal 16.

The luminous bodies 3 and 4 are composed of a lighting component 17 such as a light bulb or a fluorescent lamp, a socket 18, a cover 19 and a light transmitting plate 20.

The light-transmitting plate 20 is made of glass, plastic, or the like, and has the same red and blue colors as the traffic signal light. For example, the light-emitting body 3 is a red light-transmitting plate 20a and the light-emitting body 4 is a blue light-transmitting plate 20b. Is used. In order to give more accurate instructions to passersby, drivers, etc., it is preferable that the color arrangement order of the translucent plates 20 in the light emitting bodies 3 and 4 be the same as that of the traffic signal lights.

A lighting confirmation window 2 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the cover 19.
If 1 is provided and a light-transmitting small plate 22 having a color corresponding to the light-transmitting plate 20 is installed on the hole 1, it is easy to see how many colors are emitted.

The portable signal lamp 1 is constructed as described above, and operates and operates as follows.

When the lighting button 8 is pressed, the lighting component 17 of the light emitting body 3 is turned on, and the red light is emitted through the transparent plate 20a. At this time, the red light emission can be easily confirmed by the lighting confirmation window portion 21a while the portable signal lamp 1 is held forward.

When the lighting button 9 is pressed, the lighting component 17 of the light emitting body 4 is turned on, and the blue light is emitted through the transparent plate 20a. Even at this time, the blue light emission can be easily confirmed by the lighting confirmation window portion 21a while the portable signal lamp 1 is held in the front.

The portable signal light 1 is, as shown in FIG.
Grasp the grip portion 6 with the arm slightly lowered and appropriately stretched,
Since the mounting portion 5 can be held substantially vertically, fatigue is reduced even when used for a long time.

Then, the light-emitting buttons 3 can be turned off by pressing the turn-off button 10.

FIG. 4 shows a portable signal lamp 30 as a modified example of the portable signal lamp 1. In this portable signal light 30, the mounting portion 5 of the portable signal light 1 is formed in a prismatic shape, and three mounting holes 31, 31, 31 are formed at appropriate intervals in the length direction of the mounting portion 5. Light-emitting bodies 32, 33, and 34 that emit red, yellow, and blue light are mounted and disposed in these mounting holes 31, 31, and 31. The luminous bodies 32, 33, 34 have the same structure as the luminous bodies 3, 4.

Here, the support 2 and the light emitters 32, 33, 3
If 4 and 4 can be screwed and mounted, the light emitting bodies 32, 33,
It is convenient to be able to convert every 34.

In the portable signal lights 1 and 30, the light emitting bodies 3 and 4 (or 32, 33 and 34) are arranged in the horizontal direction with the mounting portion 5 being orthogonal to the grip portion 6. Good.

Further, the support 2 and the light emitting members 3, 4 (or 3
If the covers 19 (2, 33, 34) are made of plastic, they can be integrally molded, and the manufacturing cost can be reduced.

[0025]

Since the portable signal light of the present invention is provided with the light emitting body which emits the same color as the traffic signal in the support, the police officer can be surely prevented from making a mistake by a passerby or a driver. , It is possible to call attention to the purpose of instruction from traffic patrol officers, etc., and to smoothly guide or stop.

Further, since the support body is bent to form the grip portion, it is possible to hold the portable signal light in a state in which the arm is slightly lowered, that is, a state in which the arm is less fatigued.
