特開平10−96214号公報
Traffic lights are installed at intersections to prevent traffic jams and traffic accidents, and the movement of vehicles and people moves smoothly to protect safety.
JP-A-10-96214

近年の自動車保有率の上昇により、交通渋滞を緩和するための信号機は普及しているが、
交通事故の抑制につながっていない。特に交通量の多い交差点では、対向車に注意を払いながら横断している人物が死角に入り、歩行者をまきこんだ交通事故が多発している。
Traffic lights to relieve traffic congestion due to the recent increase in car ownership,
It has not led to suppression of traffic accidents. Especially at intersections with heavy traffic, people crossing while paying attention to oncoming vehicles are in blind spots, and traffic accidents involving pedestrians frequently occur.

本発明は、上記目的を達成するため、請求項1記載の発明は、通常の交通信号機の下部に横断歩道の歩行者情報を歩く姿絵の表示をする表示器と歩行者の体重を感知する重量センサーを横断歩道待機位置に敷設し表示器のトリガー信号とすることを特徴とする。   In order to achieve the above object, according to the present invention, the invention according to claim 1 senses the weight of a pedestrian and a display that displays a picture of walking pedestrian information on a pedestrian crossing at the lower part of a normal traffic signal. A weight sensor is laid at a pedestrian crossing standby position and used as a trigger signal for an indicator.

本発明の横断歩道歩行者表示器は、横断者の情報がオンタイムで表示され、交差点での右折による歩行者との衝突事故の減少に寄与する。   The pedestrian crossing pedestrian indicator of the present invention displays information on crossers on time and contributes to a reduction in collision accidents with pedestrians due to right turns at intersections.

交差点の横断歩道歩行者表示器で運転手に横断歩道を渡る歩行者の情報を運転者に知らせることで実現した。   This was realized by informing the driver of information on pedestrians crossing the pedestrian crossing with the pedestrian indicator at the intersection.

以下、本発明を図面に示した実施の形態により詳細に説明する。図1に、本発明の実施の形態に係る横断歩道歩行者表示器の配置図を示す。図2には、本発明の実施の形態における横断歩道歩行者表示器の事例図を示す。図3には、従来の交通信号機の外観図を示す。   Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to embodiments shown in the drawings. FIG. 1 shows a layout of a pedestrian crossing pedestrian indicator according to an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 2, the example figure of the pedestrian crossing pedestrian indicator in embodiment of this invention is shown. FIG. 3 shows an external view of a conventional traffic signal.

図1において、車両6は対面の横断歩道歩行者表示器1の交通信号表示の青色によって車両運行方向7にそって横断歩道5を横切る。   In FIG. 1, the vehicle 6 crosses the pedestrian crossing 5 along the vehicle operation direction 7 by the blue of the traffic signal display of the pedestrian crossing pedestrian display 1 facing the vehicle.

横断者2も交通信号表示の青色によって横断歩道5を歩いて対面側に向かって歩く。   The crossing person 2 also walks on the pedestrian crossing 5 toward the opposite side by the blue of the traffic signal display.

当然、車両6と横断者2は横断歩道5の地点で衝突することになり、横断歩道での交通事故の起こる原因となる。   Naturally, the vehicle 6 and the pedestrian 2 will collide at the point of the pedestrian crossing 5, causing a traffic accident at the pedestrian crossing.

車両6の運転手は横断歩道5を横切る前に横断歩道5に横断者2が出てくる情報を事前に受信することでスピードの減速や注意をはらった運行ができる。   The driver of the vehicle 6 can operate with speed reduction or attention by receiving in advance information that the crossing person 2 appears on the pedestrian crossing 5 before crossing the pedestrian crossing 5.

通常の交通信号機8は車両の運転手から見て左から青色、黄色、赤色の3色で構成され、青色は進めで、黄色は注意をし、赤色は停止とされている、これ以外に交通信号機8の下部に矢印を表示する表示機を具備して、黄色や赤色でも矢印の表示があれば進むことができる。   A normal traffic signal 8 is composed of three colors, blue, yellow and red, from the left when viewed from the driver of the vehicle. Blue is advancing, yellow is careful, and red is stopped. A display device that displays an arrow at the lower part of the traffic light 8 is provided, and if the arrow is displayed in yellow or red, it can proceed.

図3において、従来の交通信号機は交通信号機1aや交通信号機1bであった。   In FIG. 3, the conventional traffic signals are the traffic signal 1a and the traffic signal 1b.

交通信号機1aや交通信号機1bは車両の運行上の情報のみで歩行者の情報、特に横断歩道を歩く歩行者の情報が運転手に伝えられなかった。   The traffic signal 1a and the traffic signal 1b are only information on the operation of the vehicle, and pedestrian information, particularly information on pedestrians walking on a pedestrian crossing cannot be transmitted to the driver.

このことが、前記で記載した車両と横断者は横断歩道の地点で衝突することになり、横断歩道での交通事故の起こる原因となっている。   This causes the vehicle and the crossing person described above to collide at the point of the pedestrian crossing, causing a traffic accident at the pedestrian crossing.

図2において、例えば横断歩道歩行者表示器1cは従来の交通信号機1bの矢印の表示器9bの箇所に横断歩行者の歩く姿絵が重畳して表示器9aで表示される。   In FIG. 2, for example, a pedestrian crossing pedestrian display 1c is displayed on the display 9a with a figure of a crossing pedestrian walking superimposed on an arrow display 9b of a conventional traffic signal 1b.

その結果、横断歩道歩行者表示器1cを目視した車両6の運転手は、横断歩道5に横断者2が出てくる情報を事前に知ることでスピードを減速し注意を払い横断歩道の歩行者と衝突する事故を防止できる。   As a result, the driver of the vehicle 6 who has seen the pedestrian crossing pedestrian indicator 1c knows the information that the pedestrian 2 appears on the pedestrian crossing 5 in advance, reduces the speed, and pays attention to the pedestrian on the pedestrian crossing. Accidents can be prevented.

また、例えば横断歩道歩行者表示器1dは従来の交通信号機は1bの矢印の表示器9bの側面に横断歩行者の歩く姿絵の表示器9cが表示させる。   Further, for example, the pedestrian crossing pedestrian display 1d displays a display 9c of a walking pedestrian on the side of the arrow 9b of the conventional traffic signal.

その結果、横断歩道歩行者表示器1dを目視した車両6の運転手は、横断歩道5に横断者2が出てくる情報を事前に知ることでスピードを減速し注意を払い横断歩道の歩行者と衝突する事故を防止できる。   As a result, the driver of the vehicle 6 who has seen the pedestrian crossing pedestrian display 1d knows the information that the pedestrian 2 appears on the pedestrian crossing 5 in advance to reduce the speed and pay attention to the pedestrian on the pedestrian crossing. Accidents can be prevented.

また、例えば横断歩道歩行者表示器1eは従来の交通信号機は1aの下部に横断歩行者の歩く姿絵の表示器9cを表示させる。   Further, for example, the pedestrian crossing pedestrian display 1e displays a display 9c of a figure of a crossing pedestrian walking at the bottom of the conventional traffic signal 1a.

その結果、横断歩道歩行者表示器1eを目視した車両6の運転手は、横断歩道5に横断者2が出てくる情報を事前に知ることでスピードを減速し注意を払い横断歩道の歩行者と衝突する事故を防止できる。   As a result, the driver of the vehicle 6 who has seen the pedestrian crossing pedestrian indicator 1e knows the information of the pedestrian 2 appearing in the pedestrian crossing 5 in advance and reduces the speed and pays attention. Accidents can be prevented.

上記、横断歩道歩行者表示器1c、横断歩道歩行者表示器1d、横断歩道歩行者表示器1eの表示は横断者2が横断歩道5を渡る前に待機する位置に重量センサー3を敷設し表示器のトリガー信号とすることで横断歩道歩行者表示器1の表示を可能とする。   The pedestrian crossing pedestrian indicator 1c, the pedestrian crossing pedestrian indicator 1d, and the pedestrian crossing pedestrian indicator 1e are displayed by laying the weight sensor 3 at a position where the pedestrian 2 waits before crossing the pedestrian crossing 5. The display of the pedestrian crossing pedestrian display 1 is enabled by using the trigger signal of the device.

重量センサー3は横断歩道5を挟んだ対面側にも重量センサー4の2箇所のみ敷設が図1に示されているが、交差点の全ての横断歩道の待機地に敷設するのが望ましい。   As shown in FIG. 1, the weight sensor 3 is laid at only two locations on the opposite side of the pedestrian crossing 5 as shown in FIG.

重量センサー3や重量センサー4等は犬や猫などの小動物で反応せず、人の体重で感知する、例えば圧電センサーにおいては一定の重量がかかることで電気が通じるセンサーが市販されている。   The weight sensor 3, the weight sensor 4, etc. do not react with small animals such as dogs and cats, but are sensed by the human body weight. For example, a piezoelectric sensor that can conduct electricity when a certain weight is applied is commercially available.

また、敷設ができない環境であれば、重量センサーに代わり人の体温を感知する遠赤外線センサーなども使用できる、遠赤外線センサーを固設する場所は横断歩道用の信号機などが利用できる、遠赤外線センサーもまた市販されている。   In addition, if the environment cannot be laid, a far infrared sensor that senses the human body temperature can be used in place of the weight sensor, and the far infrared sensor can be used as a pedestrian crossing traffic light. Is also commercially available.

また、遠赤外線センサー以外には超音波を利用したドップラーセンサーなども利用できる。   In addition to the far-infrared sensor, a Doppler sensor using ultrasonic waves can also be used.

これらいずれのセンサーも、横断者が待機位置に立った時に感知してトリガー信号を横断歩道歩行者表示器1に伝える、トリガー信号によって上記の横断歩道歩行者表示器1cや横断歩道歩行者表示器1dや横断歩道歩行者表示器1e等を表示する。   Any of these sensors senses when the pedestrian stands in the standby position and transmits a trigger signal to the pedestrian crossing pedestrian display 1. The above pedestrian crossing pedestrian display 1c and the pedestrian crossing pedestrian display are indicated by the trigger signal. 1d, a pedestrian crossing pedestrian display 1e, etc. are displayed.

本発明は、交差点の交通信号機の横断者の安全を守る用途に適用できる。 INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY The present invention can be applied to an application for protecting the safety of a crossing traffic signal at an intersection.
