Abstract
Signalvorrichtung für Fahrzeuge zur Anzeige einer Mitteilung des Fahrers an andere Verkehrsteilnehmer, mit zumindest einer Lichtquelle zur Anbringung an einer von außen sichtbaren Position außerhalb gewöhnlicher Fahrzeugscheinwerferpositionen des Fahrzeugs und mit einer zumindest durch den Fahrer bedienbaren Betätigungsvorrichtung (20), mittels welcher Bedienung während der Fahrt die zumindest eine Lichtquelle beeinflussbar ist,
dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass
1.1 die Signalvorrichtung textfreie Signale aus einem beleuchteten Symbol auszusenden bestimmt ist,
1.2 welche Signale je nach Bedienung der Signalvorrichtung und damit entweder vollständig oder teilweise beleuchtetem Symbol von den anderen Verkehrsteilnehmern verstanden werden als
1.2.1 eine Erlaubnis,
1.2.2 ein Dankeschön oder
1.2.3 eine Bitte um Hilfe. A signaling device for vehicles for displaying a message of the driver to other road users, having at least one light source for attachment to an externally visible position outside of ordinary vehicle headlight positions of the vehicle and with an operator-operable actuator (20) by means of which operation during driving at least one light source can be influenced,
characterized in that
1.1 the signal device is intended to emit text-free signals from an illuminated symbol,
1.2 which signals are understood depending on the operation of the signaling device and thus either fully or partially illuminated symbol of the other road users
1.2.1 a permit,
1.2.2 a thank you or
1.2.3 a request for help.
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft eine Signalvorrichtung, zur Verwendung im Straßenverkehr, gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Schutzanspruchs 1. The invention relates to a signaling device, for use in traffic, according to the preamble of
Bis heute halten sich hartnäckig Verkehrsirrtümer im Straßenverkehr bzw. bei Verkehrsteilnehmern. Ob auf Parkplätzen nicht zwangsläufig rechts vor links gilt oder eine Lichthupe immer eine Nötigung ist, dazu gibt es unterschiedliche Meinungen trotz eindeutiger Rechtslage. Es besteht Klärungsbedarf. To this day, persistent traffic mistakes in road traffic or in road users. Whether parking is not necessarily right on the left or a flare is always a coercion, there are different opinions despite clear legal position. There is a need for clarification.
Einen Vorschlag macht
Die Wunderworte „bitte“ und „danke“ können leider bisher nicht unmissverständlich und schnell genug erfassbar im Straßenverkehr verwendet werden. Es gilt auch unsachgemäße Verwendungen von Signaleinrichtungen zu verhindern. Unfortunately, the wondrous words "please" and "thank you" can not be used unmistakably and quickly enough to be grasped on the road. It is also necessary to prevent improper use of signaling devices.
Zur Verbesserung wird eine textfreie, scheinwerferferne Signalvorrichtung für Fahrzeuge vorgeschlagen, wie mit den kennzeichnenden Merkmalen des Schutzanspruchs 1 ergänzt. To improve a text-free, headlamp remote signaling device for vehicles is proposed, as supplemented by the characterizing features of
Weitere vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung bilden die Gegenstände weiterer Ansprüche. Further advantageous embodiments of the invention form the subject of further claims.
Vorteile der scheinwerferexternen Anbringung im oder am Fahrzeug und der Bedienbarkeit zum rhythmischen und dauerhaften Leuchten der Frontsignalvorrichtung und zumindest einer dieser Funktionen der hinteren Hecksignalvorrichtung sind im schnellen Verstehen übermittelter eindeutiger Gesten bei Textfreiheit und bei guter Erkennbarkeit im Hellen wie im Dunkeln zu sehen. Advantages of the spotlight external mounting in or on the vehicle and the operability for rhythmic and permanent illumination of the front signal device and at least one of these functions of the rear rear signaling device are to be seen in the quick understanding transmitted clear gestures in text freedom and good visibility in the light and in the dark.
Mittels der erfindungsgemäßen Signalvorrichtung kann vom Fahrer eines damit ausgerüsteten Fahrzeugs eine Höflichkeitsgeste wie „Bitte, Danke oder Gruß“ ausgesendet werden, und zwar gezielt in die Richtung des empfangenden Verkehrsteilnehmers. By means of the signaling device according to the invention, a courtesy gesture such as "request, thank you or greeting" can be sent out by the driver of a vehicle equipped with it, specifically in the direction of the receiving road user.
Eine erfindungsgemäße Signalvorrichtung für Fahrzeuge zur Anzeige einer Mitteilung des Fahrers an andere Verkehrsteilnehmer grundsätzlicher Art gemäß einer alternativen Ausführungsform besteht aus zumindest einer Lichtquelle zur Anbringung an einer von außen sichtbaren Position außerhalb gewöhnlicher Fahrzeugscheinwerferpositionen des Fahrzeugs und einer zumindest durch den Fahrer bedienbaren Betätigungsvorrichtung (
Es ist von Vorteil gegenüber bisherigen Benachrichtigungssystemen, eine einfache Symbolik zu verwenden, weil sie international verstanden und leichter oder schneller als Text erfasst werden kann. It is an advantage over previous messaging systems to use simple symbolics because they are understood internationally and can be captured more easily or more quickly than text.
Weiterhin ist es vorteilhaft die Signalvorrichtung außerhalb gewöhnlicher Scheinwerferpositionen anzubringen, weil bei der Nachtfahrt kein Überleuchten durch Scheinwerfer befürchtet werden muss. Außerdem ist ein eigener Ort für die erfindungsgemäß angedachten Nachrichten auffälliger, was besonders bei Anwendung als SOS-Leuchte hilfreich sein wird. Furthermore, it is advantageous to attach the signal device outside of ordinary headlight positions, because at night driving no overshadowing by headlights has to be feared. In addition, a separate location for the invention contemplated news is more conspicuous, which will be particularly useful when used as an SOS light.
Nach einer vorteilhaften Ausführungsform leuchtet die Signalvorrichtung eine gewisse Zeit lang ständig oder blinkend in Grün und/oder Orange und/oder Rot, insbesondere felderweise mit einer Farbe je Feld, besonders bevorzugt einem äußeren Kranz für die Farbe Rot, einer symmetrischen Figur in der Farbe Orange und Restflächen in Grün. According to an advantageous embodiment, the signal device lights up for a certain time constantly or flashing in green and / or orange and / or red, in particular fieldwise with one color per field, particularly preferably an outer ring for the color red, a symmetrical figure in the color orange and remaining areas in green.
Es sind mithin Standardisierungen denkbar, je nach Untersuchungsergebnislage von noch durchzuführenden Verwendungstests. Thus, standardizations are conceivable, depending on the examination result of use tests still to be performed.
Zur Verdeutlichung der Erfindung sind in den nachfolgend beschriebenen Figuren Ausführungsbeispiele angegeben. Es zeigen: To illustrate the invention embodiments are given in the figures described below. Show it:
