ALARM DEVICE FOR NON-REGULATED

Pedestrian crossing

The utility model relates to information and warning devices that ensure the safety of people crossing pedestrian crossings, and can be used in road construction.

A pedestrian crossing lighting device is known (RU Patent 101048, IPC E01F9 / 00 (2006.01), publ. 10.01.2011), comprising a signal light element made in the form of a searchlight, a motion sensor, a power source, a control unit for said searchlight and motion sensor, and means for installation on it of the indicated searchlight, motion sensor, control unit, made in the form of a support and a crossbar located in the pedestrian crossing area above the lanes of vehicles, the signal lighting element, made in the form of at least Leray, one signal lamp arranged on said bar, included in the operation through the control unit, and the motion sensor and controls signal lighting unit, and a motion sensor disposed on the support; the motion sensor is a device capable of remotely detecting the movement of a pedestrian and applying a signal to the control unit to turn on the elements of signal lighting; an electric network and / or a solar battery, and / or a wind generator, and / or a device capable of generating or storing electric energy can be used as a power source; the control unit is a device that allows you to close and / or open the electrical network after a certain period of time.

The disadvantage is the lack of the ability to synchronize two devices located on the sides of the passing and oncoming traffic directions, the lack of the ability to wirelessly configure parameters, and the lack of an information board.

The inventive utility model is aimed at solving the problem of creating a device that maximizes the safety of pedestrians at a pedestrian crossing, as well as providing drivers with information about the presence of a pedestrian crossing and pedestrians at the crossing.

The technical result achieved using this utility model is to increase traffic safety and pedestrians crossing an unregulated pedestrian crossing, and reduce driver fatigue.

The warning device for an unregulated pedestrian crossing contains at least one information board made of two matrices of identical yellow LEDs to form a stylized image of a person and background, mounted on a crossbar or extension over a traffic lane, a motion sensor, a call button, a power source , a control unit for said information board with integrated radio communication means for interacting with a control unit of a similar device to be installed on the side of the carriageway oncoming traffic. At the same time, the control unit allows you to control the LED lamp located above the pedestrian crossing in places of insufficient lighting of the roadway.

The utility model is illustrated by drawings, where in FIG. 1 shows a structural diagram of the proposed warning device for unregulated pedestrian crossing, figure 2 shows the possible modes of illumination of the information board, in fig. C shows a possible design for attaching a placard to a bar, in FIG. 4 shows a fragment of the carriageway with two lanes in the forward and reverse directions.

The warning device for unregulated pedestrian crossing, shown in figure 1, contains a control unit (1), to which a motion sensor (2) and a call button (3) are connected, which are sources of signals to turn the device into a warning mode. A radio communication tool (not shown in the drawing) built into the control unit (1) is connected to the antenna (4) and provides synchronization of the inclusion of several similar devices over the air. The device parameters are set using a laptop computer with a radio modem connected to it (not shown in the drawing). At least one information board (5) located above the lane, made of two matrices of identical LEDs, designed to form a stylized image of a person and background, controlled independently so that four is possible, is connected to the control circuits of the control unit (1) mode of illumination of the scoreboard shown in figure 2. (a - d). The information board (5) (see FIG. 3) has fastening means (6), a matrix of LEDs in the form of a person (7) and a background matrix (8).

The control unit (1) is, for example, a microprocessor or microcontroller device that allows you to close and / or open the electrical network according to a predetermined algorithm, synchronize with a similar unit or units via a short-range radio channel and perform wireless settings using a laptop computer with a radio modem .

The motion sensor (2) is a device that allows you to determine the proximity of a pedestrian to a pedestrian crossing and transmit a signal to the control unit (1) to enable the alert mode.

The call button (3) allows you to enable the notification mode manually or to extend the operation of the device in this mode.

The power source may be an electrical network and / or a device capable of generating or storing electrical energy.

The device operates as follows.

To illustrate the operation of the device in figure 4. a fragment of the carriageway with two lanes in the forward and reverse directions and with two devices installed. When the device is turned on, they are in standby mode until a pedestrian appears in the coverage area (9) of the motion sensors (2) or until the call buttons (3) are pressed. When a pedestrian appears, the motion sensor (2) is activated and puts the control unit (1) of the first device into alert mode. In this case, the information board (5) is turned on in the mode of alternately blinking the image of the person and the background, depending on the selected display algorithm. Simultaneously with the transition of the device to the notification mode, the control unit (1) transmits a command to the second device, located on the oncoming traffic side from the opposite side of the road, by means of radio communication, putting it in the notification mode. The device’s operating time in the notification mode depends on the settings and is determined by the width of the carriageway. When a pedestrian appears on the opposite side of the road, the second device is the first to fire and sends a command to turn on the first device.

The claimed technical solution allows to increase the safety of movement and crossing by pedestrians of an unregulated pedestrian crossing by increasing the attention of drivers when pedestrians cross the roadway. Activating the alert mode only for the time when pedestrians cross the roadway reduces driver fatigue and saves electric energy consumed by the device.
