Description

[Detailed description of the invention] This invention is a device that can be permanently installed in a car and used as a safety sign when stopping on a highway, or can be installed on the roof of a car or outdoors in general. This invention relates to a rotating indicator lamp that transmits intermittent lamp light and serves as a warning signal, decorative lamp, etc.

In conventional rotating indicator lights, a series of rotating mechanisms consisting of an electric light, a rotatable reflector, and a motor were fixed to the base plate using fasteners such as screws, making it extremely difficult to work with and resulting in high costs. It was causing this.

In view of the above-mentioned circumstances, the present invention has been developed to create a simple structure that can be assembled and fixed to plywood with one touch, without using fasteners with poor workability such as screws, and to provide a safe and secure indicator light. It is intended to provide.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below based on the drawings.

1 is a chassis, with a horizontal part 1a and a vertical part 1b
A socket I with a socket 3 integrally formed on the upper part in the center of the left front circular hole 2, and a support boss 4 fitted with a wave spring washer 5 between the shafts, are shaped like the figure 7. It is fixed at -6.

The reflector 7 is fixed to the upper part of the reflector support rotor 8 rotatably fitted to the support boss 4 in the socket 1 with screws 9.9, and is rotatable around the light bulb 10 fitted in the socket 3. It is installed in

Further, the motor 11 has two circular protrusions (not shown) on the right side (not shown, but in the direction of the vertical portion 1b of the joint chassis in FIG. 5). A circular hole 12. is bored in the vertical portion 1b of the chassis.
The motor 11 can be temporarily fixed by fitting it into the two locations 13.

On the other hand, motor shirts 1 to 14 protrude from the left side of the motor 11, the tips of which are covered with a rubber pulley 15 and are in contact with the lower surface 8a of the disc-shaped ring of the reflector support rotor 8.

In this contact, the entire reflecting mirror supporting rotor 8 is pushed downward with a light force by the wave spring washer 5, so that the rubber pulley 15 and the ring lower surface 8a are always kept in contact.

Therefore, the power of the motor 11 is transmitted to the reflecting mirror support rotor 8, and the reflecting mirror 7 is rotated smoothly and reliably.

As described above, the chassis 1, in which the light bulb 10, the reflector 7, and parts around the rotor including the motor 11 in this embodiment are integrally arranged and assembled, is attached to the bracket 16, which is the base plate of the rotating indicator light.
The mechanism for fixing it will be explained next.

The bracket 16 is a substantially egg-shaped plywood plate having a large-diameter circular shape at the front and a tapered small-diameter circular shape at the rear.

Rectangular recesses 17 and 18 are bored on both sides of the large-diameter circular shape (upper and lower in the case of A in FIG. 6), and a similarly rectangular recess 19 is bored in the center of the small-diameter circular shape. However, this is a blank space for fitting a metal weight, and the weight is attached to the claw 2.
It is locked by 0...20.

The purpose of inserting weights in this way is to give the vehicle enough weight to withstand wind pressure even on expressways.

The three recesses 17, 18, and 19 have a vertical wall 21 in the center.
The vertical wall 21 is erected, but the vertical wall 21 is slightly inclined toward the right side in the figure of the small-diameter circular side, that is, toward the motor 11 side.

Further, a tapered open circular hole 22 is bored at its upper end as shown in the opening in FIG.

As mentioned above, there is a circular protrusion (not shown) on the right side of the motor 11, but there is also a circular protrusion (not shown) on the left side at the center of the circular protrusion (not shown) that fits into the circular hole 22. There is a motor shaft 14 at.

Therefore, when the motor shirts 1 to 14 are inserted downward from the upper opening of the circular hole 22 and the chassis 1 with the motor 11 installed and assembled is slid, the circular protrusion on the left side of the motor 11 (see FIG. (not shown) is fitted into the circular hole 22 of the vertical wall 21, and the inclination presses the motor 11, so that the motor 11 is completely inserted and fixed.

The rectangular hole 23 bored in the chassis 1 in Fig. 4A is
This is an insertion opening in the vertical wall 21.

Similarly, there are locking recesses 24, 24 on both right-hand sides of the chassis 1 (top and bottom in Fig. 4A), and recesses 25, 25 for jump springs on both left-hand sides, and further, on the left end. A tip stopper recess 26 is provided.

- The bracket 16 in Fig. 6 of the old handwriting is provided with a locking tool 27° 27 on the left side of the right hand quadrant 19 for fitting a weight, but these two locking tools 27 and 27 are Since they have an inverted shape that faces each other like mouths, insert the aforementioned locking recesses 24 and 24 from above and attach the chassis 1.
When you slide it in the direction of the left hand arrow in Figure 4 A, chassis 1
is fitted into the lower part of the locking device 27.27.

Further, a stopper 28 is attached to the left hand of the bracket 16, and this has an inverted shape facing inward so that the chassis 1 can be fitted into the chassis 1 with a stopper, as shown in FIG. 6(2).

Therefore, when the chassis 1 is slid to the left, the above-mentioned tip end stopper recess 26 is fitted into the lower part of the stopper 28.

However, this is not limited to the structure of this embodiment, and even if the tip 26 does not have a protruding recess, it is sufficient that the protruding stopper 28 is fitted in the lower part thereof.

Further, the positions of the locking tools 27, 27 and the protruding stoppers 28 may be changed so that the chassis 1 is fitted by sliding in the vertical direction as shown in FIG. 4A.

Furthermore, the chassis 1, in which the parts around the rotor are integrally disposed and assembled by fitting the recesses 25, 25 for the jump spring devices of the chassis 1 into the bracket 16, is finally sandwiched between the brackets 16. The jump spring tool 29 for fixing is in the recess 2.
It was attached at the position corresponding to 5 and 25.

This spring spring member 29 is connected to the bracket 16 as shown in FIG. 6A, but is in the form of a cantilever beam having a hollow space 30 as shown in FIG.

However, its tip has an upwardly inclined shape 29H as shown in FIG. 6, and the tip 29b is connected to the bracket 16.
It jumps above the top surface of the.

Therefore, if the recess 25 for the jump spring device shown in FIG.
a is temporarily pushed down, but the left tip 25 of the recess 25
When a passes the tip 29 b, the spring fitting 29 will jump up, so the left tip 25 a will fly up and the tip 29 b of the spring fitting 29 will fly up.
The chassis 1 is firmly clamped and fixed to the bracket 16.

This means that the weights fitted into the aforementioned recesses 17, 18, and 19 are also crimped and fixed by the chassis 1 at the same time.

However, as shown in FIG. 7, the chassis 1 may be slid sideways and a spring spring 29 may be provided at the rear end.

In this case the right-hand chassis vertical section 16 is connected to the lock 27
It is not fitted to the lower part of a.

In all of the above embodiments, the chassis 1 in which the parts surrounding the rotor are integrally disposed and assembled does not use any fastening tools such as screws other than the nut 6.

However, in another embodiment, as shown in FIG. 8, they may be screwed together using a screw 31.

In this case, the vertical wall 21 can be eliminated, and the motor 11 is attached to the bracket 16 via the chassis 1.

Furthermore, FIG. 9 shows yet another embodiment, in which the chassis 1
Although the light bulb 10 and the reflector 7 are integrally installed in the frame, the motor 11 is fixed to the bracket 16 with a screw 33 via an angle 32, so that the motor 11 is attached to the vertical portion 1b of the chassis 1. And the vertical wall 21 of the bracket 16 is not required.

Note that 49.49 in Fig. 2.8.9 are two metal weights fitted in the recess 19, both of which are attached to the motor 11.
It is crimped and fixed.

The light bulb cord 34 connected to the light bulb 10 and wired inside the socket support boss 4 is connected to the motor 11 by passing through the horizontal groove 35 (FIG. 6 H) of the bracket 16 and hooking it into the stop groove 36 (FIG. 6 G). be done.

The plug cord 37 is connected to the terminal piece 38 shown in FIG.
Connected to 1.

Note that the terminal piece 38 has a U-shape 39 so that the core wire of the cord can be inserted therein.

Next, 40' is a colored and transparent glove formed in a bowl shape with a cylinder at the front and a gentle cylinder at the rear, and insertion holes are formed in the opposing protrusions 41 and 41 on both sides of the inner wall.

Since the bracket 16 has an insertion hole 42.42 with a female thread carved in the corresponding position, a glove mounting screw 43.43 with a male thread at the end is bored in the both through holes 42.42. screw together.

Similarly, on the rear inner surface of the glove, there is an insertion hole for the protruding portion 44 and an insertion hole 45 with a female thread for the bracket 16.
Then, the glove 40 is fixed to the bracket 16 by screwing together a glove attachment screw 46 having a thread as shown in FIG.

In addition, 47 in the 9th hole in Figure 6A is a spare ball socket, and the 1st
．． 48 in Figure 2 is a spare light bulb.

The indicator light of the present invention having the above configuration is permanently installed in a car, for example, and when the car is stopped on a highway, when the plug cord 37 is connected to the car's power source, the motor 11 is driven and the motor shaft is 14, the reflector support rotor 8 rotates via the rubber pulley 15, and the reflector 7 is connected to the light bulb 10
Rotate around the periphery of.

Therefore, while reflecting the light from the light bulb 10 from the circumferential surface of the globe 40, the rotating lamp light that appears to be intermittent is transmitted to the outer periphery of a distant place, and the light transmission effect as a safety sign can be achieved.

The present invention can withstand wind pressure on expressways by inserting metal weights like the one in the above embodiment, and since the present invention is small, even disabled people can use it without getting out of the car. It is easy to open the door and install it on the road.

In the indicator light of the present invention, the rotation of the motor shaft is always safely and reliably transmitted to the reflector supporting rotor by the wave spring washer and the rubber pulley.

However, the chassis has the light bulb, rotatable reflector, and motor integrally arranged, and the mechanism for clamping and fixing this to the plywood bracket of the indicator light is extremely solid.

Coupled with this, the indicator light of the present invention can operate safely and reliably even when subjected to vibrations or installed in an inclined position.

Conventional rotating indicator lights had a rotating mechanism consisting of an electric light, a rotatable reflector, and a motor fixed to plywood using fasteners such as screws, making assembly work extremely difficult. This also led to defective products, which led to high costs.

However, the indicator light of the present invention is characterized in that it can be clamped to the plywood with a single touch, without using fasteners such as screws that are difficult to work with, and that it is firmly fixed. .

The indicator light of the present invention is a useful and practical idea that can be used not only for emergency lights and work lights but also for a wide range of applications such as advertising sign lights and decorative lighting lights.
