Description

Signal light interlocking auxiliary signal device {AN AUXILIARY SIGNALING DEVICE CONNECTED TO A TRAFFIC LIGHT AND OPERATED}

The present invention relates to a traffic light interlocking auxiliary signal device installed on a pole and a crossbeam coupled to the pole so that a vehicle driver can easily identify the color of a traffic light and blinking in conjunction with a traffic light, and more particularly, external vibration transmitted from a case It effectively offsets the effects of It's about signaling.

In general, the purpose of a vehicle, such as a vehicle, is to promote convenience to users. For this purpose, the automobile is not only a means of transportation, but also an essential element indispensable for one's own life as well as social life, and its proportion is increasing day by day.

Following this social trend, the number of cars owned continuously increased, and our case has already exceeded 10 million for a long time.

As described above, as the number of vehicles in possession increases day by day, there is a situation in which it is impossible to control the traffic flow by manpower, and the traffic light was developed to control the traffic flow more effectively.

These traffic lights can be divided into traffic lights for controlling the flow of vehicles and pedestrian traffic lights for controlling the flow of pedestrians. The traffic light constructed in this way is a very useful technology in terms of the function of effectively controlling the flow of traffic to secure the safety of not only vehicles but also pedestrians.

On the other hand, the traffic lights as described above are to represent traffic conditions with colors for safe traffic order, and the colors indicated by the traffic lights are composed of three colors of red, green, and yellow. In the traffic lights configured in this way, red (red light) is a stop signal, green (green light) is a progress signal, and yellow is caution.

The traffic lights for vehicles as described above are usually composed of posts installed upright on the roadside of an intersection or crossing, and crossbeams installed in the transverse direction from the posts to the road direction to support the traffic lights.

However, it often happens that the driver cannot see the signal instruction depending on the situation with only the traffic light. For example, the signal indicated on the display of the traffic light is obscured due to the complexity around the traffic light, such as a power pole or a street tree erected on the roadside.

In particular, there are many curved roads in Korea. At this time, the driver may not be aware of the existence or situation of the traffic light because the traffic light is obscured by the curved road from a distance, and in some cases, fatal accidents occur. Furthermore, there are cases in which the red signal is indistinguishable from the headlight of the vehicle during the dark night, and accidents may occur.

In consideration of this problem, "wireless recuperative traffic light poles (Republic of Korea Patent No. 1214542)" have been proposed.
