Work zone intrusion alert system

One or more techniques and/or systems are disclosed for alerting workers in a work zone of a potential intrusion by a vehicle. The example system can comprise a detection unit operable to mount to a work zone boundary marker. The detection unit monitors the work zone for intrusion by moving objects using the Doppler Effect. The detection unit can transmit an alarm signal to one or more personnel alerters, such as worn by workers. The personnel alerters can receive the alarm signal and activate an alert, such as an audible, visual, or other sensory alert. In this way, an alert is provided to personnel working in an established work zone that a moving object, such as a vehicle, has penetrated the work zone perimeter. This type of alert may provide the personnel the vital seconds needed to move to safety.

Ejection type safety warning sign for car and ejection system thereof

The invention discloses an ejection type safety warning sign for car, having a polyhedral structure for suppressing tumbling in a free state, capable of being restrained into tubular storage state by external force, and automatically releasing as polyhedral structure when external force disappears; polyhedral structure having warning marker on surface. A ejection system comprises: warning sign; launch tube having inner cavity for accommodating warning sign in tubular storage state; pressure tank communicated with end of launch tube; solenoid valve disposed between launch tube and pressure tank; controller connected to solenoid valve; launch tube having piston for pushing warning sign. When sudden situation occurs during driving, driver can press ejection button of warning sign while braking, so that warning sign can be ejected and stays near position of braking. Location of warning sign is at distance from position parking, eliminating take warning sign, promptly alerting rear car, reducing rear-end accidents.
