ABSTRACT:
The vehicle signalling device 2 comprises a frame 10, a rotating drum 40 having multiple sides 46 mounted to the frame 10 for displaying predetermined messages, a pivoting shutter 100 mounted to the frame 10 that shields an observable view of the drum 40 as the drum 40 rotates to the desired message for display and a hand-held trigger grip 206 operatively and independently connected to the drum 40 and the shutter 100 for selective activation. The drum 40 rotates by activating an index arm 64 and a first pawl 74 assembly engaging a first ratchet wheel 56 mounted to a drum first end wall 42. The drum 40 and the shutter 100 are activated by either transferring a force supplied by an operator's hand, or by activating electric first and second motors 278 and 288, respectively. Also, the drum 40 can be illuminated by a lamp 318 mounted within the drum 40.
