Application 387/MUM/2004 published 2006-09-01, filed 2004-03-30
According to an estimate road accident claim over half a million victims every year all over the world and in India accounts for about 10% road accident fatalities worldwide and in measures to improve road safety by using alternate source of energy we have developed this unique product. In road safety till date the delineators are used are made of painted rods/pipes with radium stripes on the same. The disadvantage of the same was it is not visible to vehicle drivers with dim/no head beam or during the foggy/rainy conditions and getting damaged/damaging vehicles when dashed by vehicle. To overcome this situation we have developed the product “Solar Pathfinder” which will give better visibility even without the head beam of vehicle. Solar Pathfinder are powered by free energy from the sun, provides clearly visible traffic guidance in all weather conditions. It has built in solar collector/silicon Cell with a battery, electronics and LEDs all together installed on a suspension, which is to be installed on roadsides or at required locations. During daytime, the solar collector/silicon Cell converts light energy into Electrical energy and stores into battery. At dusk/dawn, the in-built electronics automatically Switch-On/Off and the LEDs blink through out the night. Spring suspension is provided to avoid damage it dashed by the vehicles. The LED display is very effective at getting the driver’s attention from the long distance and helps prevent accident. Drawing: 01 Sheet. Total Pages: 07. Fig. Nil
