MEMOIRE DESCRIPTIF
La présente invention se rapporte à un dispositif électronique servant à augmenter le niveau de sécurité
routière par distinction visuelle.
Il est d'usage courant, dans le cas des véhicules routiers d'utiliser un système de contrôle de feux d'avertissement servant a prévenir les automobilistes de changements tel qu'un freinage, toutefois ces controles ne sont pas efficaces quant a la distinction d'avertissement de types particuliers de freinage.
J'ai découvert que ces inconvénients peuvent être supprimés sans avoir a modifier tout le système électrique d'un véhicule routier, par l'installation d'un dispositif électronique comprenant relais et condensateur, servant de principaux éléments a l'obtention d'un clignotement et d'une élévation de tension électrique alimentant les lampes incandescantes d'un systeme de feux d'avertissement.
Une fois activé, ce dispositif confere aux feux qu'il alimente, un effet qui attire l'attention de par leur clignotement a haute intensité, pouvant être interprétés comme: alerte de freinage.
Non activé, ce dispositif n'entrave en rien le fonction-nement normal des feux qu'il alimente.
Relativement aux dessins qui illustrent la réalisation de l'invention, la figure 1 représente le schéma électronique du fonctionnement du dispositif.
Les figures 2 et 3 représentent différents types d'activation.
Les figures 4 et 5 représentent des types de véhicules et l'emplacement de leurs feux d'avertissements.
Le dispositif illustré comprend un relais dont la bobine Rl est alimentée en mode de clignotement par un circuit Fl (non détaillé). Lorsque la bobine Rl du relais n'est pas alimentée et qu'une tension est apliquée entre El et la masse G, le condensateur Cl se charge a travers les contacts du relais CT2 CT3 et CT4 CT5. Lorsque la bobine Rl du relais est alimentée par le circuit Fl, le condensateur Cl est connecté par les contacts CTl, CT2 et par l'ouverture des contacts CT4 et CT5 en série avec la lampe incandescante Ll Située sur le véhicule, multipliant par 2 le voltage alimentant Ll pour le temps que le condensateur Cl prend pour se décharger. Lorsque la bobine Rl n'est plus alimentée par le circuit clignotant Fl, le condensateur Cl se recharge et le cycle recommence.
La lampe Ll cesse de fonctionner lorsqu'il n'y a plus de tension entre El et G.
Pour les besoins de la cause, Fl peut être activé par un capteur d'inertie Sl ou par quelconque type de circuit répondant au besoin principal.
Ce dispositif peut être utilisé dans tout systeme électrique alimenté par un courant continu et utilisant une ou des lampes incandescantes et par lequel on désire `--faire clignoter ces dites lampes en augmentant leur intensité dans le but d'en augmenter leur visibilité. 208 ~ 49 ~
DESCRIPTIVE MEMORY
The present invention relates to a device electronic to increase the level of security road by visual distinction.
It is in common use, in the case of road vehicles use a warning light control system used to warn motorists of changes such as that braking, however these controls are not effective in distinguishing between warning types individual braking.
I discovered that these disadvantages can be deleted without having to modify the entire electrical system of a road vehicle, by installing a device electronic including relay and capacitor, serving main elements to obtain a flashing and an increase in electrical voltage supplying the lamps incandescent from a warning light system.
Once activated, this device gives the lights it feeds, an effect that attracts attention with their high intensity flashing, can be interpreted like: brake alert.
Not activated, this device does not interfere with the function-normal fires it powers.
Relative to the drawings which illustrate the realization of the invention, FIG. 1 represents the electronic diagram the operation of the device.
Figures 2 and 3 show different types activation.
Figures 4 and 5 show types of vehicles and the location of their warning lights.
The device illustrated includes a relay whose coil Rl is supplied in flashing mode by a circuit Fl (not detailed). When the relay coil Rl is not not supplied and a voltage is applied between El and the mass G, the capacitor Cl charges through the contacts of relay CT2 CT3 and CT4 CT5. When the coil Rl of the relay is supplied by circuit Fl, the capacitor Cl is connected by contacts CTl, CT2 and by opening contacts CT4 and CT5 in series with the incandescent lamp Ll Located on the vehicle, multiplying by 2 the voltage supplying Ll for the time that the capacitor Cl takes to discharge. When the coil Rl is no longer supplied by the flashing circuit Fl, the capacitor Cl is recharged and the cycle begins again.
The Ll lamp stops working when there are no more voltage between El and G.
For the needs of the cause, Fl can be activated by a Sl inertia sensor or by any type of circuit meeting the main need.
This device can be used in any system electric powered by direct current and using one or more incandescent lamps and by which one wishes `-flash these lamps by increasing their intensity in order to increase their visibility.
