SAFETY CONE ENHANCER
A safety cone enhancer fits onto a traffic cone or safety cone. The traffic cone or safety cone has a conical member with a first diameter at a base of the conical member and a second diameter at a top of the conical member. The safety cone enhancer has a round or polygonal member with a hole therethrough, the hole having a diameter which is less than the first diameter of the traffic cone and greater than the second diameter of the traffic cone. The safety cone enhancer has a plurality of arms extending from the round or polygonal member; and at least one of: a first hole in said round or polygonal member extending through said polygonal member from the top surface to the bottom surface, said first hole being configured to receive a first signaling device; and a second signaling device which shines light from a surface of the round or polygonal member.
LIFE SAVER DEVICE AND METHOD
A life saver device includes a traffic cone having an internal volume, a bottom closure panel, a rechargeable battery and at least one light and may further comprise an internal volume with a bottom closure panel to house a rechargeable battery for powering at least one light; and is configured to provide a portable, rechargeable, illuminated traffic safety alert signal.
Traffic director and system and method for use thereof
A traffic director includes a distal end and a proximal end, two or more sides extending upward from the proximal end at an angle toward the distal end, a proximal notch disposed near the proximal end between two adjacent sides, and the proximal notch forms a first flexion point of the traffic director. The traffic director can further include one or more recessed channels formed in at least one of the two or more sides. The one or more recessed channels forms a second flexion point of the traffic director. The traffic director can further include a removable indicator sleeve having an advertisement or directional indicator printed thereon.
Relocatable illuminators
Embodiments described herein include a relocatable illuminator that includes an illumination component with a plurality of light emitting devices. The relocatable illuminator may include a solar collection device coupled to the plurality of light emitting devices and a base component that removably couples to a post by covering at least a portion of a top surface of the post. In some embodiments, the base component is configured to support the illumination component in a substantially vertical configuration to provide a lighted indication of a location of the post.
DEVICE, METHOD AND SYSTEM FOR DETECTING PARKING IN A NO PARKING AREA
A parking enforcement device can be secured to a surface adjacent to the area designated as NO PARKING. The enforcement device can include a camera aimed towards the area designated as NO PARKING and monitor this area for the entry of a vehicle. A parking violation is determined to have occurred upon determining that the vehicle has entered the area designated as NO PARKING, and image data of the entry of a vehicle into the NO PARKING area that was captured by the camera can be relayed to a remote computing system. The parking enforcement device can be provided as a bollard that includes a camera secured to a center pole extending vertically upwards inside of the bollard. The camera can be located along the center pole so that the camera views outward from the bollard via a window section of the bollard.
PORTABLE REMOTELY OPERATED TRAFFIC CONTROL SIGNALS
A portable wireless traffic-control signal system for safely directing vehicle and/or pedestrian traffic is disclosed. In a preferred embodiment, it includes a base, an adjustable-height vertical support, and a display module capable of displaying words and/or images. In a preferred embodiment, the system includes remote control capability so that safety personnel (e.g., police officer or crossing guard) may control the system from a location safely out of the path of traffic.
System for illuminating a carriageway in a case of fog
A system for illuminating a carriageway in a case of fog includes a road safety barrier arranged along the carriageway, at least one fog density detecting device arranged along the road safety barrier, and a plurality of light sources borne by the road safety barrier, distributed along the road safety barrier, and oriented for each to emit a light beam having a direction that is transversal to an extension axis of the road safety barrier so as to illuminate signage on the carriageway. A control unit that is connected to the light sources and to the fog density detecting device is configured to activate the light sources when the fog density detecting device detects a fog density value of above a threshold value.
TELESCOPING MARKING DEVICE
A marking device that includes a base; at least two telescoping legs movably coupled to the base; and an indicator, the indication being attached to a top portion of an uppermost leg of the at least two telescoping legs, the marking device including: (1) a retracted position wherein the at least two telescoping legs are seated within the base and (2) an extended position wherein the at least two telescoping legs are telescoped outwards from the base and locked in the extended position.
Marker light
A marker light is a device that provides referential pivoting and precision boundary marking required for parking or docking articulate vehicles during poor visibility conditions. The marker consists of 12 primary features, an upper shell housing, a sealed circular window for white light passage, a sealed slotted window for laser light passage, internal reinforcement, a white up light, a laser beam transform lens, a laser beam source, a rechargeable battery pack, a recharging port, a wiring harness, a lower base plate, and an on/off switch. The up light pinpoints substantially the optimum pivot location during the parking or docking process. The developed laser planeresulting from the laser beam passing through the transform lensenables two marking orientations for the driver from one continuous laser impingement curve. From a top view perspective, orientation 1 marks parallel on the ground for aligning the trailer while orientation 2 marks perpendicular to the vertical dock wall.
Electrically conductive carriageway marking
An electrically conductive carriageway marking includes a carrier strip, electrically conductive wires extending along the carrier strip, an electrically insulating covering layer covering the wires, a power feed formed by an interface connecting the wires to a supply line, and interfaces arranged spaced apart from each other along the carriageway marking and having electrical contact areas. The contact areas include contact elements protruding laterally from the carriageway marking, and the supply line is connectable to a first contact area of the wires and a second contact area of the wires by electrical contacts that can be tapped off. In the region of the contact areas the covering layer is formed by a detachable adhesive protective strip, and the protective strip is connected via predetermined break points or perforations to adjoining sections of the covering layer, and the wires are exposed by detaching the protective strip.
