Abstract

The invention is intended to equip vehicles and automotive machines. Placed in the field of view of the driver, it should progressively attenuate the glare of the headlights of a vehicle coming in the opposite direction when passing, and thus enhance the safety and comfort of the driver. It consists of a mounting plate 1 for fixing the device inside the vehicle, either on the windscreen, or on the upright of the vehicle, of an articulated arm 3, of a panel 4 progressively filtering the light of the headlights and sliding on the arm from the top downwards and from the bottom upwards in order to allow the driver to adjust it in his field of view facing the headlights of the vehicles coming in the opposite direction.

Description

La présente invention concerne un dispositif accessoire destiné à atténuer l'éblouissement des phares d'un véhicule venant en sens inverse lors d'un croisement. Cet accessoire peut s'adapter côté conducteur à l'intérieur de l'habitacle le long du pare-brise dans tous les véhicules. The present invention relates to an accessory device intended to attenuate the glare of the headlights of an oncoming vehicle during a crossing. This accessory can be adapted to the driver's side inside the passenger compartment along the windshield in all vehicles.

Dans ce domaine de l'atténuation de l'éblouissement des phares1 il est connu le pare-brise teinté et la lampe. In this area of attenuation of the glare of the headlights1, the tinted windshield and the lamp are known.

Le dispositif selon l'invention permet de remedier à cet inconvénient qui est l'éblouissement. I1 comporte selon une première caractéristique une platine destinée à être collée sur le pare-brise ou fixée sur le montant du véhicule, au centre de laquelle se trouve un orifice sphérique dans lequel vient s'adapter la rotule disposée à l'extrémité d'un bras rigide coudé, ce qui permet à l'utilisateur de l'orienter dans tous les sens. Sur ce bras articulé, coulisse un panneau transparent et teinté ; la transparence du panneau est progresive ; ainsi l'utilisateur peut regler ce panneau filtrant dans son champ visuel face aux phares des véhicules venant en sens inverse. The device according to the invention makes it possible to remedy this drawback which is glare. I1 comprises, according to a first characteristic, a plate intended to be glued to the windshield or fixed to the vehicle upright, at the center of which is a spherical orifice in which the ball joint disposed at the end of a bent rigid arm, which allows the user to orient it in all directions. On this articulated arm slides a transparent and tinted panel; the transparency of the panel is progressive; thus the user can adjust this filter panel in his field of vision facing the headlights of oncoming vehicles.

A titre d'illustration, les dessins joints représentent respectivement
Figures 1 A et 1 B des vues d'ensemble, de face et de dessus du dispositif en position d'utilisation, les vues de détail 2 à 4. Figures 2 A et 2 B : une platine (I) destinée à être collée sur le pare-brise (14) ou fixée sur le montant (13) du véhicule, au centre de laquelle se trouve un orifice sphérique (1 A) dans lequel vient s'adapter une rotule (2).By way of illustration, the accompanying drawings respectively represent
Figures 1 A and 1 B of the general, front and top views of the device in the position of use, the detailed views 2 to 4. Figures 2 A and 2 B: a plate (I) intended to be glued on the windshield (14) or fixed on the upright (13) of the vehicle, in the center of which is a spherical orifice (1 A) in which a ball joint (2) fits.

Figures 3 A et 3 B : un bras (3) rigide, coudé, à l'extrémité duquel se trouve une rotule (2) destinée à être fixée dans le centre de la platine (1) permettant l'orientation du bru (3) dans tous les sens. A l'autre extrémité du bras (3) est disposee une butée (5).Figures 3 A and 3 B: a rigid, bent arm (3), at the end of which is a ball joint (2) intended to be fixed in the center of the plate (1) allowing the orientation of the daughter-in-law (3) in all directions. At the other end of the arm (3) is disposed a stop (5).

Figures 4 A et 4 B : un panneau (4) transparent et filtrant progressivement la lumière des phares des véhicules venant en sens inverse. La forme du panneau (4) est trapézoidale, la base (6) du trapèze étant fixée sur le bras orientable (3).Figures 4 A and 4 B: a transparent panel (4) which gradually filters the light from oncoming vehicle headlights. The shape of the panel (4) is trapezoidal, the base (6) of the trapezoid being fixed on the orientable arm (3).

Les côtés 7 et 8 et le sommet 9 se trouvent déportés vers la gauche par rapport à la base (6), vus en plat, ou vers le haut en position d'utilisation. La transparence du panneau (4) est progressive, fortement teinte à sa base, pour finir légèrement teinté vers le sommet soit vers le centre du pare-brise lorsqu'il est dans le champ visuel du conducteur.The sides 7 and 8 and the top 9 are offset to the left relative to the base (6), seen in flat, or upwards in the position of use. The transparency of the panel (4) is progressive, strongly tinted at its base, to finish slightly tinted towards the top or towards the center of the windshield when it is in the driver's field of vision.

La couleur du panneau peut comporter plusieurs teintes : vert, orange, mauve, ou autre, suivant la sensibilité visuelle du conducteur.The color of the panel can include several shades: green, orange, mauve, or other, depending on the driver's visual sensitivity.

Le panneau (4) : sa base est munie d'un fourreau (6) lui permettant de coulisser tout en restant freiné sur le bras orientable (3). Ce panneau doit pouvoir tourner et coulisser sur le bras (3) de haut en bas et de bas en haut, afin de permettre au conducteur lorsqu'il est sur son siège de la régler face aux phares des véhicules venant en sens inverse, c'est à dire dans son champ visuel. The panel (4): its base is provided with a sheath (6) allowing it to slide while remaining braked on the orientable arm (3). This panel must be able to turn and slide on the arm (3) from top to bottom and from bottom to top, in order to allow the driver when he is in his seat to adjust it facing the headlights of oncoming vehicles, it is to say in his visual field.

Un montage serré du panneau (4) sur le bras (3) devra lui permettre de rester bloqué à l'endroit ou le conducteur l'aura reglé sans qu'il puisse se dérégler
Le blocage du panneau (4) en position de conduite doit toutefois pouvoir lui permettre de tourner sur la tige (3) en cas de choc afin d'éviter de blesser le conducteur.A tight mounting of the panel (4) on the arm (3) should allow it to remain blocked at the place where the driver will have adjusted it without being able to adjust.
Locking the panel (4) in the driving position must, however, allow it to turn on the rod (3) in the event of an impact in order to avoid injuring the driver.

L'ensemble tige (3) et panneau (4) doit être escamotable afin d'être remonté vers le haut en cas de non utilisation.The rod (3) and panel (4) assembly must be retractable in order to be raised upwards when not in use.

Selon un mode particulier de réalisation, le dispositif peut présenter au niveau du panneau trapézoidal une hauteur comprise entre 200 et 400 mm et une base comprise entre 100 et 200 mm. Un angleC entre les côtés latéraux (7 et 8) compris entre 28 et 32 et un angle * entre le côte latéral et l'axe du fourreau (6) compris entre 76 et 79. According to a particular embodiment, the device can have at the level of the trapezoidal panel a height between 200 and 400 mm and a base between 100 and 200 mm. An angle C between the lateral sides (7 and 8) between 28 and 32 and an angle * between the lateral side and the axis of the sheath (6) between 76 and 79.

Ainsi l'invention vise un dispositif permettant d'interposer un filtre face aux rayons lumineux des phares venant selon une ligne de perspective face au conducteur permet ainsi d'atténuer l'éblouissement en conduite de nuit et d'améliorer la sécurité et le confort du conducteur, comportant essentiellement un moyen de fixation supportant un bras sur lequel est articulé un panneau transparent et filtrant destin à se placer dans le champ visuel du conducteur.  Thus, the invention relates to a device making it possible to interpose a filter facing the light rays of the headlights coming along a line of perspective facing the driver, thus making it possible to reduce the glare when driving at night and to improve the safety and comfort of the conductor, essentially comprising a fixing means supporting an arm on which is articulated a transparent and filtering panel intended to be placed in the driver's field of vision.
