Abstract
Description
Die Erfindung betrifft einen Fahrtrichtungsanzeiger für motorgetriebene Fahrzeuge mit einer durch den Fuß zu betätigenden Aktivierungseinrichtung – hier durch seitliche Auslenkung des Gaspedals.The invention relates to a direction indicator for motorized Vehicles with an activation device operated by the foot - here through lateral deflection of the accelerator pedal.
Bekannt ist eine Aktivierungseinrichtung in Form eines Blinkerwahlhebels unmittelbar im Bereich des Lenkrades zur Auslösung des Blinkvorgangs gekoppelt mit einer Rückstellautomatik.An activation device is known in the form of a turn signal lever directly in the area of the steering wheel for triggering of the flashing process coupled with an automatic reset.
Insbesondere bei der Autofahrt mit häufigem Spurwechsel ist eine fortwährende Betätigung des Wahlhebels nötig, so daß in der Praxis häufig eine Betätigung eben aus diesem Grunde unterbleibt.Especially when driving with frequent lane changes is an ongoing one activity the selector lever necessary, so that in in practice often an actuation for this reason is omitted.
Beim Abbiegen in Kurven mit der Hand am oberen Lenkradkranz muß diese zum weiter unten liegenden Blinkerwahlhebel geführt und vom Lenkrad gelöst werden.When turning corners by hand this must be on the upper steering wheel rim to the turn signal selector lever below and released from the steering wheel.
Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, eine akzessorische Aktivierungseinrichtung zu schaffen, mittels der die vorhandene Blinkeinrichtung per Fußbewegung gesteuert werden kann.The object of the invention is a to create accessory activation device by means of which existing flashing device can be controlled by foot movement can.
Für einen pedalgesteuerten akzessorischen Fahrtrichtungsanzeiger der eingangs genannten Art wird diese Aufgabe gelöst durch eine Einrichtung, welche neben der bekannten Vor- und Rückwärtsbewegung des Gaspedals des Fahrzeugs eine Auslenkung nach rechts oder links erlaubt, so daß ein Schalter betätigt wird, der den Blinkvorgang in Gang setzt. Durch eine vorgeschaltete Elektronik wird die Dauer des Blinkvorgangs geregelt. Der bekannte Blinkerwahlhebel am Lenkrad bleibt unverändert erhalten.For a pedal-controlled accessory direction indicator This type of problem is solved by a device which in addition to the known forward and backward movement the vehicle's accelerator pedal to the right or left allowed so that a Switch operated that starts the blinking process. By an upstream Electronics regulates the duration of the flashing process. The known The turn signal selector lever on the steering wheel remains unchanged.
Die erzielten Vorteile liegen insbesondere bei der Autobahnfahrt, bei der ein Fuß permanent auf dem Gaspedal ruht um die Geschwindikeit zu regeln und somit nur durch leichte Bewegung des Fußes nach links oder rechts der Blinkvorgang bedient werden kann. Speziell bei häufigem Spurwechsel stellt die Erfindung eine Erleichterung dar und trägt so zu erhöhter Verkehrssichheit bei. Beim Abbiegen in Kurven stellt die Erfindung eine Verbesserung dar, da mittels Betätigung der Blinkvorrichtung durch die Fußbewegung beide Hände am Lenkrad belassen werden können. Beim innerstädtischen Verkehr mit häufigem Abbiegen (Taxifahrer) ist der Fahrer durch die mittels Fußbewegung auszulösende Aktivierung des Blinkgebers entlastet. Durch die Elektronik wird ein Blinkzyklus auch nach Rückkehr des Systems zur Mittelstellung eine gewisse Zeit fortgeführt und dient zusätzlich zur Entlastung.The advantages achieved are in particular: the highway trip, with one foot permanently on the accelerator rests to regulate the speed and therefore only by light Foot movement after the blinking operation can be operated on the left or right. specially with frequent The lane change makes the invention a relief and thus contributes to increased traffic safety at. The invention represents an improvement when turning in curves because by means of actuation the flashing device by moving the feet both hands on the steering wheel can be left. In the inner city Traffic with frequent Turning (taxi driver) is the driver by means of foot movement to be triggered Activation of the flasher unit relieved. The electronics become a Flashing cycle even after return the system for the middle position continued for a certain time and serves additionally for relief.
Die Erfindung ist ausschließlich als Zusatz zum vorhandenen Fahrtrichtungsanzeigesystem entwickelt, da in manchen Fahrsituationen (Fuß steht nicht auf dem Gaspedal) die Betätigung des Fahrtrichtungsanzeigers mittels Fußbewegung nicht sinnvoll ist.The invention is solely as Addition to the existing turn signal system developed because in some driving situations (foot does not stand on the accelerator pedal) of the direction indicator by foot movement is not useful.
