De-Icing System For Traffic Signals

US Patent:
2007011, May 24, 2007
Filed:
Nov 18, 2005
Appl. No.:
11/281597
Inventors:
David Smith - Rowlett TX, US
Steven Canan - Sachse TX, US
Assignee:
Precision Solar Controls Inc. - Garland TX
International Classification:
H05B 1/02
US Classification:
219502000
Abstract:
A circuit is disclosed for detecting and eliminating the buildup of snow and/or ice on the viewable face of an LED traffic signal lens. The circuit measures the ambient temperature within the LED signal, and when the temperature falls to a level where snow and/or ice accumulation can occur, the circuit begins looking for snow and/or ice buildup on the lens of the LED signal. An infrared LED transmits a signal which is reflected when snow or ice is present on the lens of the traffic signal. When the reflected signal is received by an infrared receiver, it sends a signal to a microcontroller, which analyzes the signal to determine if it is a valid signal. If it is, a heater is turned on until the ice and snow are removed.
