Abstract

In some countries the headlights of a vehicle have to be already permanently activated as a safety feature and the same is planned for all European countries. The new system offers this opportunity in an energy saving way. A daylight mode (1) is automatically switched on by a relay (3) when no other lamp is active and off as soon as dipped lights (9), parking lights (5), or high beams (7) are switched on by the driver. There is also a switch for a manual control.

Description

Fahrzeuge können im Straßenverkehr besser gesehen werden, wenn sie auch tagsüber mit eingeschalteter Beleuchtung betrieben werden.vehicles can in traffic be seen better, even if the daytime with the lights on operate.

In vielen Ländern ist ganztägiges Fahren mit Licht bereits Vorschrift. Zukünftig wird dies auch in der Bundesrepublik Deutschland zur Pflicht erhoben werden.In many countries is full time Driving with light already regulation. In the future this will also be in the Federal Republic of Germany.

Da die volle Leistung der Beleuchtung tagsüber nicht benötigt wird, werden inzwischen spezielle Tagfahrlichter mit niedriger Leuchtkraft entwickelt, um nicht unnötig Energie zu verbrauchen.There the full power of the lighting is not needed during the day, are now special daytime running lights with low luminosity designed to not be unnecessary To consume energy.

Für diese getrennten Beleuchtungen sind allerdings zusätzliche Ein- und Ausschalter notwendig, was erheblichen Mehraufwand erfordert. So muss ein zusätzlicher Schalter im Umfeld des Fahrers eingebaut und elektrische Leitungen dorthin verlegt werden. Dies trifft insbesondere für nachrüstbare Varianten des Tagfahrlichts zu.For this separate lighting, however, are additional on-off switch necessary, which requires considerable additional effort. So must an additional Switch installed in the driver's environment and electrical wiring be moved there. This is especially true for retrofittable variants of the daytime running lights too.

Der hier vorgestellten Erfindung liegt die Absicht zugrunde, diesen Nachteil zu umgehen. Das erfindungsgemäße Tagfahrlicht kommt ohne einen zusätzlichen Schalter im Fahrerumfeld aus. Es wird automatisch an- bzw. abgeschaltet, wobei die Automatik über den elektrischen Zustand der Versorgungsleitungen von Abblend-, Fern-, oder Standlicht gesteuert wird. Bei laufendem Motor bzw. eingeschalteter Zündung und ausgeschaltetem Abblend-, Fern-, oder Standlicht, ist das Tagfahrlicht angeschaltet. Ein Steuerungsrelais schaltet wegen der stromlosen Leitung von Abblend-, Stand- bzw. Fernlicht die Versorgungsleitung des Tagfahrlichts auf Durchgang und nimmt es damit in Betrieb.Of the here presented invention is the intention of this Disadvantage to work around. The daytime running lights according to the invention comes without An additional Switch in the driver environment off. It is switched on or off automatically, being the automatic over the electrical condition of the supply lines of dimming, Remote or parking light is controlled. With the engine running or switched on ignition and off dipped, remote, or parking light, is the daytime running light turned on. A control relay switches because of the de-energized Direction of low beam, fixed or high beam the supply line of the daytime running light on passage and takes it into operation.

Wird nun Haupt-, Stand- bzw. Fernlicht eingeschaltet, unterbricht ein Relais die Stromversorgung zum Tagfahrlicht und schaltet dieses aus. Der Schalter (Relais) für die Steuerung des Tagfahrlichts kann somit im Motorraum im Bereich der Scheinwerfer untergebracht werden und erfordert deshalb nur einen geringen Installationsaufwand.Becomes now switched on main, stationary or high beam, interrupts Relay the power to the daytime running lights and turn this on out. The switch (relay) for The control of the daytime running light can thus in the engine compartment in the area The headlamp can be accommodated and therefore requires only one low installation costs.

Weiterhin kann durch die automatische Steuerung des Tagfahrlichts insbesondere dessen Einschalten nicht vergessen werden was somit die Verkehrssicherheit erhöht.Farther can by the automatic control of the daytime running light in particular its switching will not be forgotten what thus the traffic safety elevated.
