Invention Field

The present utility model is a central delimiter for collective transport vehicle. More specifically, the delimiter has a one-piece configuration with three illuminated areas, providing better visibility and less maintenance while being suitable for different country standards for this type of device.

Background

Delimiters are lighting devices used in the central part of mass transit vehicles and are intended to meet established standards for mass transit. Conventional delimiters known in the art are commonly individual, each delimiter comprising a single illumination zone provided by a conventional or equivalent incandescent lamp. Conventional delimiters cause several technical difficulties, such as: higher maintenance frequency due to the low durability of conventional lamps; and the need to adapt the vehicle production line according to the intended market, since the standards defining the quantity and position of the illuminated areas vary according to region / country, among other difficulties.

These and other difficulties of the current art are overcome by the present utility model, whose constructive arrangement provides advantages in its practical use and also in the production of the vehicles that use it.

Summary of the Invention

It is an object of the present utility model to provide a central limiter for a mass transit vehicle. Said delimiter has a one-piece configuration with a new lighting zone configuration comprising three selectable illuminated areas. Brief Description of the Figures

Utility Model Detailed Description

For the purposes of the description of the invention, the term "delimiter" is understood to be the set of lighting elements used on the upper front part of the public transport vehicle. These lighting elements aim to meet anomalies / legislations related to transport regulation, there are several types of delimiting devices in the vehicles currently used. This utility model features a new shape and layout comprising a single centerpiece with three illuminated zones. Such configuration, in addition to providing excellent illumination, meets the legislation / standard of several countries with one piece by simply turning on / off certain leds. In addition, maintenance is easier for more than one reason: as a result of the use of LEDs, which have a longer service life (similar to the life of the transport vehicle itself), there is no need for periodic maintenance; Access at this particular point of the vehicle tends to be difficult and therefore the one-piece configuration of this model of mobility provides easier mounting on the vehicle and when needed the entire part can be changed instead of traditional individual maintenance on each separate lamp - as occurs in the conventional similar delimiters.

Referring to Figures 1, 2 and 3, the utility model delimiter comprises a single piece to be placed in the center part of a mass transit vehicle, with three illuminated zones, preferably the four LED niches. each end and the four central LED niches, as shown by the arrows in figure 1. In addition to the legislation / standard of the location where the mass transit vehicle will operate, the manufacturer can provide the required lighting zones in one piece so that The invention by its shape, configuration and arrangement of lighting zones, in addition to complying with local legislation, provides functional improvement in both its use and the process of its installation in the vehicle during production and / or maintenance.

Those skilled in the art will immediately appreciate the functional benefits of the present utility model, such as improvement over existing counterparts. They will immediately know that configurational variants comprising the same arrangement of three light zones should be understood as falling within the scope of the invention and the appended claims.

Claims (2)
