Description

Multi-directional intersection signal structure

The present invention belongs to the technical field of a traffic signal, specifically refers to a multi-directional intersection signal structure, so that passers-by can clearly and quickly identify the direction of traffic, and can simplify the setting of intersection traffic lights, effectively saving The cost of installation and maintenance, thereby improving traffic safety.

According to the press, the traffic signs are usually set up in places where people and vehicles are frequent to direct traffic, and then to guide the passage of people and vehicles to ensure the safety of traffic. For example, the traffic light signal is one of the traffic signs. It is usually set at the intersection or other special places. As shown in the first and second figures, the main function of the red and green signal (10) is to borrow round red, yellow, The green light signal (11~13) or the direction signal (13A, 13B) [as shown in the second picture] is composed of a light pole (15) standing at the intersection and distributed in a time-changing manner. The red, yellow, green lights (11~13) or direction lights (13A, 13B) of the red and green signs (10) have the right of way to traffic in different directions to control the stopping and turning of vehicle drivers and pedestrians.

However, when encountering more complicated intersections, due to the limitations of the length of the traditional red and green signals (10) and the number of lights (11 to 13) that can be accommodated, under the consideration of safety and structural strength, generally There are at most five lights (11~13) or direction lights (13A, 13B), resulting in insufficient control of right of way in different directions, and the current common treatment method is to increase the setting of red and green signs (10), plus Where is the sign It will make the entire intersection full of different traffic signs, which will greatly increase the cost of setting up the traffic signs. It is not easy to maintain and check the route in the future, and too many traffic signs are also extremely messy and destroy the junction landscape. At the same time, the passers-by who do not pass frequently cannot immediately identify the correct stop or direction lights (11~13). If they are not careful, it may cause traffic accidents and seriously affect traffic safety.

In order to solve the aforementioned problems, the present inventors have deeply discussed the problems faced by the existing traffic signals, and through the continuous improvement and trial work of the needs of the technical development in recent years, finally developed a multi-directional intersection signal Structure to overcome the shortcomings and inconveniences caused by the current difficulty in amplification.

Therefore, the main object of the present invention is to provide a multi-directional intersection signal structure, which can perform multi-directional traffic stop control, and allow passersby to clearly and quickly identify the right of way in each direction of travel to improve traffic safety.

Furthermore, another main object of the present invention is to provide a multi-way intersection signal structure, which can simplify the intersection traffic signs without destroying the intersection landscape, and can facilitate the landscape planning of urban intersections.

Based on this, this creation is mainly through the following technical means to specifically achieve the aforementioned objectives and effects: it is composed of a frame, the frame is sequentially ringed from the center to an indication area code, a warning area code And a prohibited area code; the aforementioned indication area code is formed in a radial arrangement with at least three indicator lights, and each indicator light can selectively emit green light, and The indication area sign has a corresponding direction mark in each of the indicator lights; in addition, the aforementioned warning area signs are arranged around the periphery of the indication area signs in a radial arrangement, and the warning area signs have at least three corresponding to the aforementioned The warning lights of the indicator lights are composed, and each warning light can selectively emit yellow light; in addition, the aforementioned prohibited area code is arranged in a radial arrangement around the warning area code, and the prohibited area code has at least Three prohibited lights corresponding to the aforementioned warning lights are formed, and each prohibited light can selectively emit red light.

In this way, through the specific implementation of the above technical means, the multi-directional intersection signal structure of the present invention can utilize the conversion of the indicator light corresponding to the indication area code, the warning light signal of the warning area code and the prohibited light signal of the prohibited area code, And control the right of way of each corresponding intersection to control the passing and turning of passers-by, and allow passers-by to clearly and quickly identify the right of way in each direction of travel to improve traffic safety and reduce the setting of traffic signs. In order to reduce the installation and maintenance costs, and can simplify the intersection traffic signs, without disrupting the intersection landscape, and can facilitate the landscape planning of urban intersections, so as to increase the added value of the product and enhance its economic benefits.

The present invention can further achieve the aforementioned effects through the following technical means; such as: wherein the frame can be circular.

The green light of each indicator light of the indication area code can be selected from green light-emitting diodes, and the yellow light of each warning light signal can be selected from yellow light-emitting diodes, and the red light of each prohibited light signal It can be selected from red light emitting diodes.

Among them, the indication area code is three indicator lights, which can be defined as a left indicator light, a right indicator light, and a forward indicator light, and the warning area The sign has three warning lights corresponding to the position of the aforementioned indicator, and the prohibited area sign has three prohibited lights corresponding to the position of the aforementioned warning.

Among them, each indicator light of the indication area code and the direction mark in the range are in different colors.

Wherein, each direction sign of the indication area code can further be marked with text.

Wherein, the indication area code has a counting light signal at the center surrounded by the indicator lights, and the counting light signal may be a number for displaying the countdown time of right-of-way change.
