Abstract

The invention relates to an intercommunication device for motorcyclists, comprising a radiofrequency receiver for receiving the signals generated by an emitter, and for closing, in the presence of a signal, the supply circuit of a vibrator arranged in any appropriate part of the motorbike, close to the motorcyclist's body, for example in the hollow of the seat of the motorbike, close to the operative surface of said seat.

Description

DISPOSITIVO DE INTERCOMUNICACIÓN PARA MOTORISTAS MOTOR INTERCOM COMMUNICATION DEVICE
D E S C R I P C I Ó ND E S C R I P C I Ó N
OBJETO DE LA INVENCIÓNOBJECT OF THE INVENTION
La presente invención se refiere a un dispositivo de intercomunicación para motoristas, concretamente para los comúnmente denominados "moteros", especialmente aficionados a las motos, y de cuya afición común surge un gregarismo que los hace compañeros aun sin conocerse.The present invention relates to an intercom device for motorcyclists, specifically for those commonly called "bikers", especially motorcycle enthusiasts, and whose common hobby arises a gregariousness that makes them companions even without knowing each other.
El dispositivo tiene como finalidad enviar señales de un motorista a otro, indicativas de su proximidad o de cualquier otro tipo de información, y el objeto de la invención es conseguir que dichas señales lleguen al receptor con plenas garantías de detección por parte de éste último.The purpose of the device is to send signals from one motorist to another, indicative of their proximity or any other type of information, and the object of the invention is to ensure that said signals reach the receiver with full guarantees of detection by the latter.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCIÓNBACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Para la intercomunicación entre motoristas es conocida la utilización de emisores y receptores de radio, de manera que a través de un emisor puede generarse una señal desde una moto, y ser recibida a través del receptor de otra moto situada dentro del radio de acción del emisor.For the intercommunication between motorcyclists, the use of radio transmitters and receivers is known, so that a signal can be generated from one motorcycle through a transmitter, and received through the receiver of another motorcycle located within the emitter's range of action .
En la actualidad y para que una determinada señal pueda ser advertida por el receptor de la misma, se utilizan fundamentalmente dos soluciones, que el citado receptor y ante dicha señal provoque la activación de un avisador acústico, o de un avisador óptico.At present and so that a certain signal can be warned by the receiver thereof, two solutions are fundamentally used, that said receiver and before said signal causes the activation of an acoustic warning, or an optical warning.
El preceptivo uso del casco hace que en muchas ocasiones los avisos acústicos no se oigan, de manera que tales avisos se pierden, y los avisos ópticos o luminosos presentan como problema fundamental el hecho de que en condiciones de alta luminosidad ambiental y fundamentalmente por problemas de reflejos, tampoco resulten visibles en muchas ocasiones.The mandatory use of the helmet means that on many occasions the acoustic warnings are not heard, so that such warnings are lost, and the optical or luminous warnings present as a fundamental problem the fact that in conditions of high ambient brightness and fundamentally due to problems of Reflexes are also not visible on many occasions.
DESCRIPCIÓN DE LA INVENCIÓNDESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
El dispositivo de intercomunicación que la invención propone resuelve de manera plenamente satisfactoria la problemática anteriormente expuesta, garantizando con toda seguridad la recepción de los avisos por parte del motorista portador de dicho dispositivo.The intercom device that the invention proposes solves in a fully satisfactory manner the aforementioned problem, surely guaranteeing the reception of the warnings by the motorist carrying said device.
Para ello y de forma mas concreta, el dispositivo parte de la utilización del citado sistema de intercomunicación vía radio, es decir de la utilización de emisores y receptores de radiofrecuencia, pero con la especial particularidad de que el receptor, en lugar de actuar sobre un avisador óptico o acústico, actúa sobre un vibrador, situado en el sillín de la motocicleta, de manera que sean cuales fueren las condiciones de ruido o iluminación ambiental, las vibraciones generadas por el mismo van a llegar siempre al cuerpo del motorista, que va a detectar ineludiblemente la llegada de una señal, cuando ésta se produzca. DESCRIPCIÓN DE LOS DIBUJOSTo do this and more specifically, the device starts from the use of the aforementioned radio intercom system, that is to say, the use of radio frequency transmitters and receivers, but with the special feature that the receiver, instead of acting on a optical or acoustic warning, acts on a vibrator, located in the saddle of the motorcycle, so that whatever the conditions of noise or ambient lighting, the vibrations generated by it will always reach the body of the motorist, who will inevitably detect the arrival of a signal, when it occurs. DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
Para complementar la descripción que se está realizando y con objeto de ayudar a una mejor comprensión de las características del invento, de acuerdo con un ejemplo preferente de realización práctica del mismo, se acompaña como parte integrante de dicha descripción, un juego de dibujos en donde con carácter ilustrativo y no limitativo, se ha representado lo siguiente:To complement the description that is being made and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, according to a preferred example of practical implementation thereof, a set of drawings is attached as an integral part of said description. For illustrative purposes and not limitation, the following has been represented:
La figura 1.- Muestra, según una representación esquemática, un dispositivo de intercomunicación para motoristas realizado de acuerdo con el objeto de la presente invención.Figure 1 shows, according to a schematic representation, an intercom device for motorists made in accordance with the object of the present invention.
La figura 2.- Muestra, según una representación esquemática en perspectiva, el dispositivo de la figura anterior debidamente instalado en una motocicleta.Figure 2.- Shows, according to a schematic perspective representation, the device of the previous figure duly installed on a motorcycle.
REALIZACIÓN PREFERENTE DE LA INVENCIÓNPREFERRED EMBODIMENT OF THE INVENTION
A la vista de las figuras reseñadas puede observarse como el dispositivo de intercomunicación que la invención propone está constituido a partir de un receptor de radio frecuencia (1) capaz de recibir las señales generadas por un emisor (2), actuando dicho receptor (1) al recibir la señal y a través de un interruptor (3), sobre el circuito de alimentación de un vibrador (4), alimentado por una pila (5), que puede ser la propia batería de la moto, cuando ésta disponga de la misma.In view of the figures described, it can be seen how the intercom device proposed by the invention is constituted from a radio frequency receiver (1) capable of receiving the signals generated by a transmitter (2), said receiver acting (1) upon receiving the signal and through a switch (3), on the power circuit of a vibrator (4), powered by a battery (5), which can be the motorcycle's own battery, when it has the same.
Tal como se observa en la figura 2, el vibrador (4) está destinado a quedar integrado en el seno del sillín (6) de la moto, en una situación suficientemente próxima a la superficie del asiento del mismo como para que las vibraciones por él generadas sean inmediatamente detectadas por el motorista a través de su propio cuerpo.As seen in Figure 2, the vibrator (4) is intended to be integrated into the saddle (6) of the motorcycle, in a situation sufficiently close to the surface of the seat of the motorcycle so that the vibrations generated by it are immediately detected by the motorist through his own body.
Se consigue de esta manera, como anteriormente se ha dicho, una garantía plena de que las señales generadas por el emisor (2) van a ser detectadas ineludiblemente por cualquiera de los motoristas que, portadores del dispositivo, se encuentren en su entorno. It is achieved in this way, as previously stated, a full guarantee that the signals generated by the transmitter (2) will be unavoidably detected by any of the motorists who, carriers of the device, are in their environment.
