Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To call driver's attention, by fitting an illuminant on a reflecting face of a reflecting material and fitting a power unit on a stop-indication board and making the illuminant flicker repeatedly at every certain time interval. SOLUTION: Right and left frames are formed to rise upward and fixed at a fixing part 7 and the respective frames are made to form a triangle. A base bar 1 is rotated around a support point 3. The base bar is positioned to make right angles against respective frames and put on a road. When a power unit located below the rear face of the base frame 2 is put on, Currents from a battery are conducted intermittently to a light emitting diode connected through a control circuit. And the LED repeatedly flickers at every certain time interval and calls drivers' attention by both flickering and reflecting beam.

Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a stop display plate used to call attention to a passing vehicle when working on the side of a road when parking at night.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, there is a triangular stop display plate having a reflection function, but no stop display plate having both a reflection function and a light emission function as shown in the present invention is found.

[0003]

The conventional stop display plate is
When light is applied, the light is reflected to obtain a display effect. Generally, the light (headlight) of an automobile is used by switching between upward (high beam) and downward, and it is often used downward during normal traveling. This is because the driver of an oncoming vehicle is dazzled by the eyes of a driver of an oncoming vehicle when used in an upward direction. When driving with this downward lighting, the stop indicator is exposed to light only within a few tens of meters, especially during high-speed traveling from when the stop indicator is recognized to that position. The time is short and early detection is important. Also, in rainy weather, when fog is present, and in the case of snowfall, the cognitive ability due to the reflection is reduced. The present invention has been invented to solve the above-mentioned problems related to the conventional stop display plate, and it is possible to obtain a sufficient recognition effect in night use by adding a light emitting function to the reflection function. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a stop display board that can be used.

[0004]

As a means for solving the problems, the present invention uses a method of intermittently supplying a current to a light-emitting body provided on a reflecting surface via a control circuit. That is, in a stop display board using a reflective material, a light emitter is attached to the reflective surface of the reflective material, a power unit consisting of a power supply source, a control circuit and a switch is attached to an appropriate position of the stop display board, and the light emitter and the power unit are connected. Then, the light emitter is repeatedly blinked at regular intervals. The present invention is an automobile stop display plate having the above structure.

[0005]

In order to use the present invention, first, after assembling it into a predetermined shape, the stop display plate is set near the parked car, and the switch of the power unit is turned on. Then, the current is intermittently supplied to the light-emitting body, and blinks repeatedly at a constant time period. Due to this blinking, the change in light from the light-emitting body calls attention to the driver of the passing vehicle, and this display can be confirmed from a distance from the conventional product. After use, the switch may be turned off to stop the blinking of the light emitting body and be stored in a predetermined place. In the present invention, an intermittent light emitting function is newly added to the reflection function of the conventional means, and both means can alert the passing vehicle.

[0006]

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below. In the figure, reference numeral 1 is a base bar in which rubber caps are attached to both ends of a metal rod. Reference numeral 2 is a base frame, which is formed of a synthetic resin plate. This base frame has a substantially L-shaped cross section and is divided into two halves on the front side, and a reflector 2a is fixed to the lower side. Further, a lower part of the center of the base frame projects downward in a convex shape, and the projecting portion is axially supported by the base bar to form a shaft support portion 3. Flat plate-shaped legs 4 are formed on the lower portions of both sides of the base frame. Reference numeral 5 is a left frame, 6 is a right frame, each of which has a shape similar to that of the base frame, and each end of the base frame is pivotally supported near both ends of the base frame. In addition, a convex portion is integrally formed on the upper front surface of the left frame, a cutout hole is provided on the upper front surface of the right frame, and the convex portion is inserted and locked in the cutout hole, that is, the base. The upper portions of the left and right frames are opened and closed around the pivotal support portions of both ends of the frame, and can be locked by a locking portion 7 formed by a convex portion and a cutout hole. Reference numeral 8 denotes a light-emitting body formed of a light-emitting diode, and three light-emitting bodies are arranged in rows on the upper portions of the left and right frames. Reference numeral 10 denotes a power unit attached to the back surface of the base frame, which includes a battery holder, a control circuit, and a switch. A cord 11 connects the light emitting body and the power unit.

In order to use the present invention, first, the setting of the folded stop display plate is performed. The left and right frames are raised and locked by the locking portion 7, and each frame is set in a triangular shape. Next, the base bar is rotated by the shaft supporting portion 3 and placed on the road at a position perpendicular to each frame as shown in FIG. Then, the switch of the power unit located below the back surface of the base frame is turned on. Then, the current from the battery intermittently flows to the light emitting diode connected through the control circuit, and the light emitting diode repeats blinking at a constant cycle. Both the blinking by the light emitting diode and the reflected light by the reflecting material call attention to the passing vehicle. The present invention
The tip part of the light emitting diode is a little sticking out from the surface of the reflecting material and fixed. Therefore, a part of the emitted light reaches the reflecting surface of the reflecting material, and both the light from the light emitting diode body and the reflected light from the vicinity of the light emitting diode blink, which is more effective. Can be displayed. In addition to the shape and structure used in this example, the reflection type stop display plate can be mounted on another reflection type display plate for use. The light emitting diode used in the present invention consumes less power and can be used in a dry battery for a long time. As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to obtain a stop display plate that can be recognized from a distance from the conventional method.

[0008]

According to the present invention, it is possible to provide a useful article which can call the driver's attention with both the light-emitting body and the reflector. In addition, it can be used in addition to the conventional stop display plate, and it can be used for a long period of time depending on the selection of the light-emitting body since the cost is small.
