Proper maintenance of speed bumps

As a traffic facility, speed bumps are designed to remind drivers to slow down and ensure the safety of pedestrians and vehicles. Proper maintenance of the speed belt can not only ensure the normal play of its function, but also extend its service life. Here are some proper maintenance methods for speed bumps:

Regular inspection: Check the speed bump regularly to see if there is damage, missing or deformation. Once the problem is found, it should be repaired or replaced in time.

Cleaning and maintenance: Keep the speed reducer clean, wash with water regularly, remove the dirt, soil and sand and other debris on the surface, and avoid damage to the speed reducer due to accumulation of debris.

Avoid heavy weight: Avoid large vehicles or heavy vehicles passing through speed bumps frequently, because long-term weight compression may cause the speed bump to deform or damage.

Reasonable design: When installing speed bumps, road conditions and traffic flow should be considered, and the location, length and height of the speed bumps should be reasonably designed to reduce the damage to vehicles and roads.

Proper use:

Dual wheel pass: The driver should ensure that both wheels of the vehicle pass through the speed bump at the same time, which can evenly distribute the impact force and reduce the damage to the vehicle.

Deceleration: Before passing the speed bump, the driver should slow down in advance and control the speed not more than 20Km/h to reduce the impact on the speed bump and the vehicle.

Avoid diagonal: Do not diagonal through the speed bump, which is easy to cause uneven force on the left and right of the vehicle, increasing the damage to the suspension system.

Timely repair: Once the speed belt is damaged, it should be repaired or replaced immediately to avoid traffic safety hazards caused by damage to the speed belt.

Set warning signs: Set obvious warning signs near the speed bump to remind the driver to pay attention to slowing down to reduce the damage caused by the driver’s negligence.

Use durable goods: Choose good quality, wear-resistant and pressure-resistant speed belt materials to improve its damage resistance.

Through the above correct maintenance methods, the service life of the speed belt can be effectively extended to ensure the smooth progress of traffic safety.
