Description

Traffic sign device

The present invention relates to a semaphore device, and more particularly to a traffic slogan device.

The current traffic sign design generally includes a base and a horn light mounted on the top end of the pedestal. The horn light can be driven to periodically switch the display number, for example, to control the traffic lights of the traffic vehicle. Red light and green light, or red to stop pedestrians' pedestrian lights, stop walking the little red man and green can pass the small green man.

However, the current traffic sign design is quite monotonous. In addition, because the current roads are full of various advertising signs, these advertising signs will light up at night, and their lighting patterns and luminous colors can be said to be varied. The light of the signboard often causes the driver to make a wrong sign, so that a traffic accident occurs, and often because the vehicle with a higher height in front blocks the line of sight, it is impossible to know the status of the front sign, and the traffic sign has become a red light. In the case of a cross-over red light event, it even affects the passage of vehicles in the other direction. The pedestrian number is because the height is low. When there are more pedestrians passing through the road, it is very easy to be blocked and the pedestrian cannot know the current status. So how do you make the traffic sign message more Clearly communicated to drivers and pedestrians, the current traffic signs can still be improved.

Therefore, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a traffic sign device that can enhance the alert effect.

Thus, the novel traffic sign device includes a horn light unit, a projection unit, and a control unit. The horn light unit includes a base and at least one horn module mounted on the base and capable of being driven to display at least two types of horns. The projection unit is mounted on the base and can be driven to perform projection imaging of the image. The control unit is mounted on the base, and includes a video library storing a plurality of digital image data, and a controller, the controller can periodically control the number of the digital module to switch display, and according to the The symbol module currently displays the number, selects a specific number of image data from the video library, and drives the projection unit to project the content of the number of the image.

The effect of the new model: by matching the content of the symbol displayed by the code module, the design of the corresponding image is simultaneously enlarged and enlarged, except that the pedestrian and the driver around the traffic intersection can clearly know the traffic sign device. The sign helps to improve traffic safety, and it can also increase the different landscapes and interests of the busy urban traffic signs.

The drive 41 and the projector 42 are both connected to the control unit 6, and the projector 42 can be driven by the control unit 6 to perform enlarged projection of the image in a specific direction, for example, projecting a wall 900 beside the road 800. Or projecting on the road. The driver 41 can be driven by the control unit 6 to adjust the projection direction of the projector 42, including left and right rotation, up and down rotation, and the like.

The control unit 6 includes a video library 61, an input 62, a display 63, and a controller 64. The input unit 62 is operable to input an instruction for setting the controller 64. The display 63 can display the data input by the input unit 62 and can display the data of the controller 64. In the embodiment, the input device 62 is a keyboard, but in implementation, it may also be a signal transmission terminal for directly inputting a command, or a touch panel integrated with the display 63 for operating an input command.

The video library 61 stores a plurality of digital image data and a plurality of guiding sound data, and the video data may be a still image or an animated image, and the guiding sound data may be a voice or an alarm sound, but when implemented, The content of the image and the content of the guide sound data are not limited to the above types.

The controller 64 includes a direction setting module 641, a video setting module 642, a timing module 643, and a control module 644. The direction setting module 641 is configured to set a projection direction of the projector 42. The audio and video setting module 642 can be further configured to perform synchronous projection display via the projector 42 according to the content of the symbol 320 generated by the number module 32.
