Description

to the usual and customary cat's eyes to rear view recognition in the dark (reflectors, bicycle pedal reflectors etc.) is the real purpose of the

Security bar

to look for a vehicle that is perpendicular to the direction of travel moved by another vehicle, to be recognized in good time in darkness or fog.

While cat's eye reflectors (red) or bicycle pedal reflectors (yellow) are small and very short and are only intended to be seen from behind , the safety bar I intend to use is only attached to the long side of vehicles for the purpose of keeping the vehicle on both sides to make recognizable in darkness or fog. The length of the reflective strip is considerably greater and depends on the length of the vehicle to be secured (e.g. approx. 2-4 m for a car, approx more).

The mounting point is always on the side of the vehicle, the height from the ground depends a) on the height of the chassis and b) on good visibility and c) on reasons of expediency. In the case of a car, it is most practical to attach it where the decorative strip is usually located (e.g. directly below the door closure of the access door). The previous trim would then have to be removed.

Meaning and purpose of the bar: A vehicle that moves on a country road in darkness or fog will recognize a crossing vehicle faster and better in such poor visibility, because the headlights of the vehicle faster the reflective cells (cat's eyes) attached to the sides of the vehicle Record "safety bar". A vehicle that has to pass an open level crossing in the dark or in fog will recognize an otherwise unlit freight train, which is otherwise difficult to see, from the side immediately and quickly if such a reflective strip on the sides of the freight wagon allows the car's headlights to shine back.

The same safety factors inevitably also apply in traffic with ships, boats, trams and airplanes.

The "safety bar ^w consists

1) from a metal edging rail (chrome, stainless steel, aluminum etc.)

2) from a rubber mount to hold the

3) Cat-eye plastic plaques (commercially available).

The 3 individual parts, plugged into one another and assembled, make up the "safety bar" · To attach the same, simple screws are welded to the rear.
