Abstract

A stop lamp array for vehicles is mounted between two rear lamps and comprises eight stop lamps. Depending on the severity of the deceleration, any number of lamps between two and eight will be illuminated.

Description

Es ist bekannt, jeweils zwei Bremslichter je Fahrzeug anzuordnen, die das Bremsen anzeigen. Diese beiden Lampen zeigen aber nicht die Stärke der Bremsung, zum Beispiel Normal- oder Vollbremsung, an. Durch die Stopplichtleiste wird erreicht, daß eine Differen­ zierung der Stärke der Bremsvorgänge durch insgesamt acht Lampen angezeigt wird.It is known to have two brake lights per vehicle to arrange, which indicate the braking. These two However, lamps do not show the strength of the braking, for example normal or full braking. Through the Stop light bar is achieved that a difference adornment of the strength of the braking processes by overall eight lamps is displayed.

Der im Patentanspruch 1 angegebenen Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, die Stärke des Bremsvorganges anzuzeigen.The invention specified in claim 1 lies the problem is based on the strength of the braking process display.

Dieses Problem wird durch die Erhöhung der Anzahl der Bremslichter von zwei auf acht Lampen gelöst.This problem is caused by increasing the number the brake lights released from two to eight lamps.

Die mit der Erfindung erreichten Vorteile bestehen darin, daß die Stopplichtleiste eine Verbesserung der Sicherheit von Nutz- und Kraftfahrzeugen im Straßenverkehr erbringt. Weiterhin können Gefahren rechtzeitig und deutlicher als bisher erkannt werden. Durch das Aufleuchten unterschiedlich vieler Bremslichter kann der nachfolgende Kraftfahrer erkennen, um welchen Verzögerungsgrad es sich handelt und somit besser reagieren.The advantages achieved with the invention exist in that the stop light bar is an improvement the safety of commercial and motor vehicles in Provides road traffic. Furthermore, there can be dangers recognized in time and more clearly than before will. By lighting up different numbers The following driver can brake lights recognize the degree of deceleration and thus react better.

Claims (1)

Stopplichtleiste für Nutz-und Kraftfahrzeuge, welche zwischen den beiden Heckleuchten des Fahrzeuges angebracht wird.
Diese Stopplichtleiste ist dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß sie sich aus 8 Bremslichtern zusammensetzt, welche mit dem Hauptbremssystem verbunden sind. Bei der Einleitung einer Bremsung entscheidet die Stärke der Verzögerung, ob 2 bis 8 Lampen gleichzeitig aufleuchten, und somit den Bremsvorgang für den nachfolgenden Verkehr ersichtlich machen. Stop light bar for commercial and motor vehicles, which is attached between the two rear lights of the vehicle.
This stop light bar is characterized in that it is composed of 8 brake lights which are connected to the main brake system. When braking is initiated, the strength of the deceleration determines whether 2 to 8 lamps light up at the same time, thus making the braking process visible to subsequent traffic.
