ABSTRACT:

FIELD OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
The present invention relates to a safety warning arrangement, and more particularly to an illuminant triangular warning arrangement having an illuminating device equipped with a light reflector device to provide alert warning for other vehicles on the road, especially during night time or poor weather conditions, so as to avoid an accident.
BACKGROUND OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
Normally when a vehicle breaks down or has trouble on the road, the driver can place a conventional triangular light reflecting warning sign behind the troubled vehicle for alert warning. The conventional light reflecting triangular warning sign work fine during daytime or high visibility hours. However, when the weather is rainy or foggy, with low visibility other drivers may fail to observe the warning sign and crash into the troubled vehicle.
The conventional light reflecting triangular warning sign also have the following shortcomings. Most of the conventional light reflecting triangular warning sign is not easy to store because of their sizes. Although the size of the conventional light reflecting triangular warning sign seem too large to fit well in the trunk of the vehicle, when they are placed on the road, they becomes too small to catch the attention of other drivers. The earlier the other drivers can detect the bad road condition ahead, the more reaction time the other drivers may have to avoid the accident.
Another major disadvantage of the conventional light reflecting triangular warning sign is that it do not provide the self-flashing or self-illuminating function. As mentioned above, during low visibility condition, such as the bad weather condition or nighttime, other drivers may not be able to clearly observe the warning signs that would lead to an undesirable accident.
SUMMARY OF THE PRESENT INVENTION
The main objective of the present invention is to provide an illuminant triangular warning arrangement, which not only provides a light reflector device, but also comprises a plurality of build-in self-flashing illuminating units to alert other drivers in high visibility, during either day time or night time, to provide safety protection for the drivers and the troubled vehicle. Moreover, the illuminating units are specifically designed to bring instant attention from other drivers on the road form far away.
Another objective of the present invention is to provide an illuminant triangular warning arrangement, which has an easy and convenient installation process that it can be assembled in matter of seconds. When the illuminant triangular warning arrangement is in used, its displaying area is large enough to attract other distance drivers attention. When it is not in used, it can be folded into a compact package, so that it would not occupy unnecessary space in the trunk of the vehicle for easy storage.
According to the present invention, an illuminant triangular warning arrangement comprises a triangular clothe body and an illuminant device. The illuminant device comprises a battery box, a manual switch and a plurality of illuminating units provided on the triangular clothe body, in which each illuminating unit comprises a circuit board, a casing socket, a fitting washer, and a photodiode (LED). The present invention not only can provide the light reflecting function as in the conventional warning sigh, but also can provide flashing light, especially during low visibility condition in bad weather or nighttime, so that the driver and the troubled vehicle can be easily observed by the other drivers on the road.
