Abstract

Rear spoiler with built-in optical system (prism) which is equipped with rotatable side parts for variable fastening when it is a retrofitted accessory or with fixed side parts when it is used to equip new vehicles. In addition to its known purpose of modifying air flow, the rear spoiler is also intended to make the area behind the vehicle in the blind spot more visible.

Description

Die nachstehend beschriebene Erfindung erweitert die in den Patentschriften DE 35 20 593 / 29 43 314 beschriebenen praktischen Vorteile zu einer für nahezu jedes Fahrzeug verwendbaren Montagemöglichkeit.The invention described below extends the in the Patent specifications DE 35 20 593/29 43 314 described practical advantages for almost every vehicle usable mounting option.

Während die beschriebene Sichtverbesserung von PS 35 20 593 sowie Ring-Linse (Fresnel) nur bei Fahrzeugen mit geradem Kastenheck anwendbar und der in PS 29 43 314 beschriebene Doppelspiegel vom Einbau her mit großem, den Innenraum des Fahrzeugs stark verändernden Umständen behaftet ist, bietet die hier beschriebene Erfindung eine universelle Möglichkeit für nahezu alle Fahrzeugtypen. (Abb. 1)While the described improvement in the visibility of PS 35 20 593 and the ring lens (Fresnel) can only be used in vehicles with a straight box-type tailgate and the double mirror described in PS 29 43 314 has a large installation, which greatly changes the interior of the vehicle, the offers Invention described here is a universal possibility for almost all types of vehicles. ( Fig. 1)

Aufgabe dieses Systems ist ebenfalls, den hinter dem Heck des Fahrzeuges liegenden toten Winkel soweit sichtbar zu machen, so daß mit dem Fahrzeug wesentlich sicherer rangiert werden kann (Abb. 1). Dahinter parkende sowie das eigene Fahrzeug sind hierdurch weitaus weniger gefährdet.The task of this system is also to make the blind spot behind the rear of the vehicle visible so that maneuvering with the vehicle is much safer ( Fig. 1). Parking behind and your own vehicle are much less at risk.

Vom Äußeren sowie strömungstechnisch ein ganz normaler Heckspoiler, wie er bereits bei vielen Fahrzeugen Verwendung findet (Abb. 1). Im Inneren jedoch arbeitet ein Prisma, (Abb. 2) welches in den optischen Werten durch entsprechende Schenkelwinkel und Längen auf bestmögliche Sichtverbesserung ausgelegt ist. Die für die Strömung verantwortliche obere Deckfläche (Abb. 2c) sowie eine im Gehäuse befindliche nach unten geneigte Blendschutzscheibe bewirken Blendschutz gegen einwirkende Sonnenstrahlen. Durch eine Drehschraube oder durch Verwendung eines Elektromotors (Abb. 2d) ist das Prisma und somit der Sichtwinkel nach oben und unten in der Neigung verstellbar, so daß wie bei konventionellen Rückspiegeln eine von der Körpergröße des Fahrers abhängige Einstellung möglich ist.From the outside and in terms of flow technology, a normal rear spoiler, as is already used in many vehicles ( Fig. 1). Inside, however, there is a prism ( Fig. 2), which is designed for the best possible visual improvement through appropriate leg angles and lengths. The upper cover surface responsible for the flow ( Fig. 2c) as well as a glare protection pane that is inclined downwards in the housing provide glare protection against the sun's rays. The prism and thus the viewing angle up and down can be adjusted in inclination by means of a rotary screw or by using an electric motor ( Fig. 2d), so that, as with conventional rear-view mirrors, an adjustment depending on the body size of the driver is possible.

Das Gehäuse dieser Kombination besteht aus schlagfestem Kunststoff und wird von außen je nach Fahrzeugtyp an Karosserie (Sufenheck Abb. 3a) oder Heckscheibe (Kombiheck/Kastenwagen Abb. 3b) befestigt. Hierzu ist auf beiden Seiten des Gehäusekörpers nach Anspruch 1 und 2 eine Halterung drehbar gelagert angebracht, so daß das Prismengehäuse auf nahezu jeden Fahrzeugtyp einstellbar ist.The housing of this combination is made of impact-resistant plastic and, depending on the vehicle type, is attached from the outside to the body (satchel fig. 3a) or rear window (station wagon / panel van fig. 3b). For this purpose, a holder is rotatably mounted on both sides of the housing body according to claim 1 and 2, so that the prism housing can be adjusted to almost any type of vehicle.

Die Befestigung erfolgt durch Verwendung eines bereits auf dem Markt existierenden hochelastischen Spezialklebstoffes. Schrauben werden hierbei nicht benötigt, so daß ein hoher Sicherheitsstandard sowie einfachste Montage ohne Bohren und Schrauben gewährleistet ist.The attachment is done by using one already on the Existing highly elastic specialty adhesive on the market. Screws are not required here, so that a high Safety standard as well as simple assembly without drilling and Screws is guaranteed.
