Description

Descrizione dell'invenzione industriale dal titolo "DISPOSITIVO ELETTRONICO PER LA COMMUTAZIONE A DISTANZA DELLA LUCE RETRONEBBIA DI AUTOVEICOLI Description of the industrial invention entitled "ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR THE REMOTE SWITCHING OF THE REAR FOG LIGHT OF MOTOR VEHICLES

RIASSUNTO SUMMARY

Dispositivo elettronico per la commutazione a distanza della luce retronebbia di autoveicoli,specificatamente per evitare che il conducente di veicolo al seguito rimanga abbagliato da detta luce. Electronic device for remotely switching the rear fog light of motor vehicles, specifically to prevent the driver of the accompanying vehicle from being dazzled by said light.

TESTO DELLA DESCRIZIONE TEXT OF THE DESCRIPTION

La presente invenzione riguarda un dispositivo elettronico per la commutazione a distanza della luce retronebbia di autoveicoli. The present invention relates to an electronic device for remotely switching the rear fog light of motor vehicles.

Allo stato attuale,nei periodi di nebbia,allorquando un conducente segue con il proprio veicolo un'altro avente le luci retronebbia accese,prova fastidio alla vista. At present, in periods of fog, when a driver follows another with his vehicle with the rear fog lights on, he feels discomfort to the sight.

L'installazione sull'autoveicolo del dispositivo permette lo spegnimento automatico della luce retronebbia appena un veicolo con fari accesi si approssimi alla distanza di visibilità'. The installation of the device on the vehicle allows the automatic switching off of the rear fog light as soon as a vehicle with headlights on approaches the visibility distance '.

In una attuazione vantaggiosa ,tale scopo viene realizzato secondo il trovato mediante un sistema di captazione della luce collegato ad un circuito elettronico caratterizzato dal fatto che comprende: In an advantageous embodiment, this object is achieved according to the invention by means of a light capturing system connected to an electronic circuit characterized in that it comprises:

un sistema di captazione della luce,costituito da un contenitore ,da una lente e da un sensore di luce. a light capture system, consisting of a container, a lens and a light sensor.

un circuito elettronico comprendente un rilevatore di luce ed un temporizzatore. an electronic circuit comprising a light detector and a timer.

Ulteriori caratteristi che e vantaggi del dispositivo secondo l’invenzione appariranno dalla descrizione dettagliata che segue,effettuata con riferimento al disegno annesso, fornito a puro titolo di esempio non limitativo nel quale: Further characteristics and advantages of the device according to the invention will appear from the detailed description that follows, made with reference to the attached drawing, provided purely by way of non-limiting example in which:

La Fig.1 e' uno schema di una forma di applicazione del dispositivo secondo l’invenzione. Fig.1 is a diagram of a form of application of the device according to the invention.

Con riferimento alla figura 1 il dispositivo secondo il trovato comprende un corpo cavo 1 alloggiato nel paraurti posteriore dell ’autoveicolo, portante internamente un altro corpo di forma tronco-conica 2 contenente nella parte piu' larga una lente di Fresnel 3,e nella estremità’ rastremata un sensore di luce 4. With reference to Figure 1, the device according to the invention comprises a hollow body 1 housed in the rear bumper of the motor vehicle, internally carrying another frusto-conical body 2 containing a Fresnel lens 3 in the widest part, and in the end. a tapered light sensor 4.

Una lastra di plastica trasparente 6 salvaguarda dallo sporco la lente 3 e un gommino 5 permette la fuoriuscita delle connessioni verso la centralina elettronica 7 costituita da un rilevatore e un temporizzatore,collegata al1'interruttore luce retronebbia 8 e alla lampada retronebbia S nelle cui vicinanze e' situata. A transparent plastic plate 6 protects the lens 3 from dirt and a rubber pad 5 allows the connections to the electronic control unit 7 consisting of a detector and a timer, connected to the rear fog light switch 8 and to the rear fog lamp S in the vicinity of which and 'located.

In uso ;quando in condizioni atmosferiche di nebbia gli automobilisti viaggiano c.on la luce retronebbia accesa al fine di farsi avvistare da chi li segue,appena il conducente del veicolo inseguitore idi norma con fari anteriori accesi) si approssima ad una distanza di visibilità' e quindi avvista il veicolo che lo precede,la luce dei suoi fari viene raccolta dalla lente di Fresnel 3 e concentratola la convoglia sul sensore di luce 4 che invia un segnale alla centralina elettronica 7 che interrompe l'alimentazione alla lampada retronebbia 9 spegnendola. In use; when in foggy atmospheric conditions, motorists travel with the rear fog light on in order to be seen by those who follow them, as soon as the driver of the vehicle following the standard with headlights on) approaches a distance of visibility ' and then sighting the vehicle in front of him, the light from his headlights is collected by the Fresnel lens 3 and concentrating it on the light sensor 4 which sends a signal to the electronic control unit 7 which interrupts the power supply to the rear fog lamp 9 by turning it off.

Siccome la distanza tra i due veicoli potrà’ variare di continuo in modo oscillatori ,il temporizzatore situato anch'esso nella centralina elettronica 7 impedirà' lo spegnimento e l'accensione ciclica della luce retronebbia. Since the distance between the two vehicles may vary continuously in oscillatory mode, the timer also located in the electronic control unit 7 will prevent the cyclical switching on and off of the rear fog light.

In pratica i particolari di esecuzione potranno comunque variare senza uscire dall'ambito del trovato e quindi dal dominio del brevetto d'invenzione. In practice, the details of execution may in any case vary without departing from the scope of the invention and therefore from the domain of the invention patent.
