Description

Sicherbeits- und tJarneinri chtung für Last kraftwagen Beschreibung Die Erfindung betrifft ein Gerät zur Erhöhung der Sicherheit für den Fernfahrer. Bei der Häufigkeit der Verkehrsunfälle, an denen LKW's beteiligt sind, ist die Sache von einem großen Wert für das gesamte LKW-Wesen, denn es wird zu einer Verminderung von Personen-und Sachschäden beitragen.Safety and warning equipment for trucks Description The invention relates to a device for increasing the safety of truck drivers. With the frequency of traffic accidents in which trucks are involved, the thing is of great value to the entire trucking being, because it becomes a reduction of personal injury and property damage.

Es gibt verschiedene Geräte und Vorrichtungen, die teilweise Einzelfunktionen des hier in Rede stehenden Gerätes erfüllen.There are various devices and devices, some of which have individual functions of the device in question here.

Ihre Kombination zu einem präzis arbeitenden Gerät ist bisher nicht bekannt.Their combination to a precisely working device is not yet known.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, dem LKW-Fahrer eine sicherere Bedienungsmöglichkeit des Wagens zu geben, was einmal in einem präzis zu berechnenden Überholvorgang zu sehen ist, andererseits aber auch in der Möglichkeit, den Wagen auch rückwärts in eine vorhandene Bücke zwischen zwei parkende Wagen an eine Rampe heranzufahren. Ferner wird ein Auffahren au9 unerwartete oder unerkannte hindernisse vermieden, indem bei Annähern an ein Hindernis über den Sicherungsabstand (s.The invention is based on the object of providing the truck driver with a safer Control possibility of the car to give what once in a precisely to be calculated Overtaking can be seen, on the other hand, but also in the possibility of the car also backwards into an existing bridge between two parked cars on a ramp approach. It will also run into unexpected or undetected obstacles avoided by moving beyond the safety distance when approaching an obstacle (s.

Skizze 3) von z, B. 50 m hinausgehend eine Vollbremsung eingeleitet wird. Über ein Gestänge, das die Bewegung der Steuersäule au9 die Richtung des Senders und Empfängers überträgt, ermöglicht das Gerät auf der Landstraße einzusetzen. (s.Sketch 3), e.g. starting from 50 m, an emergency stop is initiated will. Via a linkage that the movement of the control column au9 the direction of the transmitter and receiver transmits, enables the device to be used on the country road. (see

Skizze 3a)). Das Gerät hat weiterhin die Aufgabe, die Aufinerk samkeit des Fahrers durch gleichzeitige Inbetriebsetzung eines akustischen Signals zu überwachen, wenn der Fahrer bei eingestelltem Gerät die vorgesehenen Funktionen, z.B.Sketch 3a)). The device still has the task of the Aufinerk sameness monitor the driver by simultaneously activating an acoustic signal, if the driver is using the intended functions with the device set, e.g.

Brücken einer Taste, nicht ausführt. Nach der Erfindung wird der Sicherungsabstand bei eingeschaltetem Gerät durch Betätigung des Betriebsschalters (10) mit elektromagnetischen Wellen oder mit Hilfe von Ultraschallwellen (Ultraschall-Radargerät) überwacht. Das Gerä-t besitzt einen Sender und einen Empfäner (s. Skizze 5 (8.1) und (8.2)) ferner einen Verstärker(Skizze 5a (9)) Skizze 2 zeigt die Arbeit des Gerätes für den Sicherungsabstand: Skizze 3 lunktion beim Uberholen; skizze 4 punktion beim tangieren Wird eine eingestellte Grenze unterschritten, so wird durch ein Relais (i) die Bremsanlage (2) des Wagens beispielsweise durch einen Magnetschalter (3) in Tätigkeit gesetzt. Auf dem gleichen Weg wie der Sicherungsabstand wird auch die Arbeit beim Überholvorgang durch das Gerät erledigt. Ein akustischer oder optischer Anzeiger (4) zeigt an, wann der erforderliche Sicherungsabstand zum Wiedereinscheren auf die rechte Fahrbahn vorhanden ist. (Hierdurch wird ein zügiger Verkehr besonders auch auf der Autobahn gewährleistet.) Ein Wahlschalter (ii) gibt die Möglichkeit, auf die gewünschten Funktionen: uberholen (5.1), Rückwärtsrangieren (5.2), seitliche Kontrolle beim Rangieren (5.3 und 5.3a)) einzustellen, wobei hierzu ein gemeinsamer Verstärker (9) verwendet wird.Bridging a key, not executing. According to the invention, the safety distance when the device is switched on by actuating the operating switch (10) with electromagnetic Waves or monitored with the help of ultrasonic waves (ultrasonic radar device). The device has a transmitter and a receiver (see sketch 5 (8.1) and (8.2)) furthermore an amplifier (sketch 5a (9)) sketch 2 shows the work of the device for the safety distance: sketch 3 function when overtaking; sketch 4 puncture at tangent If a set limit is not reached, a relay (i) the braking system (2) of the car, for example by means of a magnetic switch (3) put into action. In the same way as the safety distance, the Work done in overtaking by the device. An acoustic or an optical one Indicator (4) shows when the required safety distance to reevers is present on the right-hand lane. (This makes fast traffic special also guaranteed on the motorway.) A selector switch (ii) gives the option of on the desired functions: overtaking (5.1), backward maneuvering (5.2), sideways Control when maneuvering (5.3 and 5.3a)), with a common Amplifier (9) is used.

Soll die Sicherheitsahstandprüfung dauernd erfolgen, d.h. auch wenn der Überholvorgang überprüft wird, ist ein zusätzlicher Verstärker erforderlich.Should the security check be carried out continuously, i.e. also if the overtaking process is checked, an additional amplifier is required.

Die Funktionsweise des Gerätes bei Rangierarbeiten sind prinzipiell die gleichen, die das Gerät beim Überholvorgang erfüllt. Der rechte Strahl (5) wird lediglich anders eingestellt und arbeitet über zwei andere Sender ( 5.2) und 5 3)), auch dann wird die entfernung von einem Anzeiger (4) abgelesen.The functionality of the device during shunting work is fundamental the same that the device fulfills when overtaking. The right ray (5) will just set differently and works via two other transmitters (5.2) and 5 3)), even then the distance is read from an indicator (4).

Das Gerät zur Überwachung des Fahrers arbeitet folgendermaßen: In das Steuerrad ist beispielsweise ein durchgehender Ring eingearbeitet, der bei eingeschaltetem Gerät an beliebiger Stelle leicht heruntergedrückt werden muß (6), Sollte der Fahrer durch eine Übelkeit oder ähnliches das Bewußtsein verlieren, wird sowie der Ring nicht mehr gedrückt ist, ein Stromkreis geschlossen und über ein Relais (1) unter gleichzeitiger Betätigung eines akustischen Signals (7) ein Bremsvorgang eingeleitet. Es handelt sich hierbei um das gleiche Signal das ertönt, wenn der Sicherungsabstand bei vorhandenem Hindernis überfahren wird.The device for monitoring the driver works as follows: In the steering wheel is, for example, a continuous ring incorporated, which when switched on Device must be pressed down slightly at any point (6), should the driver lose consciousness through nausea or the like, as well as the ring is no longer pressed, a circuit is closed and via a relay (1) below Simultaneous actuation of an acoustic signal (7) initiated a braking process. This is the same signal that sounds when the safety distance is reached is driven over if there is an obstacle.

Soweit es die Funktion es Gerätes beim Überliol- und Rangier vorgang betrifft, kann diese arbeit auch durch eine Fernsehkamera erfolgen.As far as the function of the device during the transfer and maneuvering process Concerning this, this work can also be done through a television camera.

Bei LgW t S die mit Anhänger fahren, werden die Sende- und Empfangsgeräte gemäß 5 1), 5 2) und 5 3) in den Anhänger eingebaut, die dann ebenfalls über den Verstärker (9) des Motorwagens laufen.At LgW t S that drive with a trailer, the transmitting and receiving devices according to 5 1), 5 2) and 5 3) built into the trailer, which is then also via the The motor vehicle's amplifier (9) is running.
