Safety light for mobile mining equipment

摘要

A safety light device is supported on a mobile mining equipment device using an auxiliary battery which is independent of the main battery of the vehicle. The device includes a primary strobe light and a controller which activates the strobe light for the prescribed activation period determined by a timer upon receipt of an activation signal from a motion sensor of the device. A transceiver may optionally be provided to generate the activation signal when detecting wi-fi signals emitted from other work vehicles. The device may include other lights of different color from the primary strobe light for illumination instead of the primary strobe light if certain conditions are met to communicate additional information to persons in proximity to the work vehicle.
