Abstract
A flexible foldable triangular warning device is provided. The warning device is made from at least one panel and can be moved between a compact or storage position and an expanded position in which the warning device can be made to be free standing. The device can comprise a single panel, in which case, the device includes a base which will enable the panel to be free standing or to be mounted to the window of a vehicle. The device can also comprise two, three, four, or more panels, in which case, the device will set up to form a triangular or rectangular pyramid.
Claims25
A collapsible warning device comprising:
- at least one panel;
- said panel comprising a flexible wire frame and a web applied to said frame;
- said web being applied to said frame by a channel at a periphery of said web and through which said wire frame extends;
- and
- a base;
- said base being configured to enable said warning device to be mounted to a window of a vehicle or to be free-standing.
A collapsible warning device comprising:
- at least one panel;
- said panel comprising a flexible wire frame and a web applied to said frame;
- said web being applied to said frame by a channel at a periphery of said web and through which said wire frame extends;
- and
- a base;
- said base being configured to enable said warning device to be mounted to a window of a vehicle or to be free-standing;
- said base comprising a connector having a groove which is sized and shaped to receive at least a part of a peripheral edge of said panel and a pair of legs pivotally mounted to said connector;
- said legs being pivotal between a first position in which said legs are adjacent and generally parallel to the plane of said panel and a second position in which said legs are generally perpendicular to the plane of said panel.
A collapsible warning device comprising:
- at least one panel;
- said panel comprising a flexible wire frame and a web applied to said frame;
- said web being applied to said frame by a channel at a periphery of said web and through which said wire frame extends;
- and
- a base;
- said base being configured to enable said warning device to be mounted to a window of a vehicle or to be free-standing;
- said base comprising a channel member having a first portion which receives at least a part of a bottom edge of said panel and a second portion which receives at least a part of a side edge of said panel;
- said base further including a leg pivotally mounted to said channel member to be movable between a first position in which said leg is generally perpendicular to the plane of said panel and a second position in which said leg is generally parallel to the plane of said panel.
A collapsible warning device comprising:
- two panels;
- said panels comprising a flexible wire frame and a web applied to said frame;
- said web being applied to said frame by a channel at a periphery of said web and through which said wire frame extends;
- said panels being operatively connected together along a top edge thereof;
- and being moveable between a first position in which said panels are substantially parallel to each other and a second position in which said panels are adjacent each other at their top edges and spaced apart from each other at their bottom edges;
- said warning device further comprising a strap extending between the bottom edges of said two panels to maintain said panels in said second position, said device being free standing when in said second position.
A collapsible warning device comprising:
- three panels;
- said panels each comprising a flexible wire frame and a web applied to said frame;
- said web being applied to said frame by a channel at a periphery of said web and through which said wire frame extends;
- said panels being operatively connected together along a top edge thereof;
- said three panels defining a central panel and two outer panels;
- said outer panels being pivotally connected to opposite sides of said central panel;
- said warning device being moveable between a collapsed position and a position in which said three panels are joined together to form a three sided pyramid.
