Abstract

The warning device uses at least one warning lamp (6) mounted on the outside of an automobile door (8) and/or the wing mirror (7), controlled via a control unit (5) provided with a series circuit containing a door contact switch (1), a seat contact switch (2), an ignition lock switch (3) and a temperature sensor (4), detecting the engine temperature.

Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung für Fahrzeugtüren zur Warnung von Verkehrsteilnehmern, insbesondere Fahrradfahrer, nach dem Abstellen des Fahrzeuges über Warnlampen.The invention relates to a device for Vehicle doors to warn road users, especially cyclists, after parking the Vehicle via warning lamps.

Es ist bekannt, Warnlampen insbesondere an der Innenseite von Fahrzeugtüren anzuordnen, um nach der Offenstellung ein Warnsignal für andere Verkehrsteilnehmer zu schaffen. Hierbei ist es üblich, diese Warnlampe über einen Türöffnungsschalter zu steuern. It is known to use warning lamps in particular Arrange inside of vehicle doors to order the Open a warning sign for others To create road users. It is common here this warning lamp via a door opening switch Taxes.  

Es hat sich aber gezeigt, daß diese bekannten Warnsysteme nicht ausreichen, um eine Türöffnung eines Fahrzeuges im Ansatz zu erkennen. Hierbei werden insbesondere von hinten kommende Radfahrer beeinträchtigt und es hat sich gezeigt, daß hierdurch eine Vielzahl von Fahrradunfällen ausgelöst werden.However, it has been shown that these are known Warning systems are not sufficient to open a door Recognize the vehicle in the approach. Here are especially cyclists coming from behind impaired and it has been shown that this a variety of bicycle accidents are triggered.

Nach der US 4 965 546 ist eine Anordnung bereits bekannt, wobei blinkende Warnleuchten bei geöffnetem Sicherheitsgurtschloß und/oder entriegeltem Türschloß aktiviert werden. Hierbei wird keine ausreichende Steuerung von Warnleuchten nach Beendigung einer Fahrt nahegelegt.According to US 4 965 546 an arrangement is already known, with flashing warning lights when open Seat belt buckle and / or unlocked door lock to be activated. This is not sufficient Control of warning lights after a journey has ended suggested.

Die Aufgabe der Erfindung ist es, ein optisches Warnsystem zu schaffen, das ermöglicht, ein Warnsignal in den Außenbereich des Fahrzeuges abzugegeben, und die zu erwartende Türöffnung frühzeitig nach außen erkennbar macht.The object of the invention is an optical To create warning system that enables a warning signal delivered into the outside of the vehicle, and the expected door opening to the outside early makes recognizable.

Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erfolgt erfindungsgemäß dadurch, daß mindestens eine Warnlampe im außenliegenden Bereich der Fahrzeugtür und/oder am Außenrückspiegel angeordnet ist und die Ansteuerung über eine Steuereinheit mit einer Reihenschaltung eines Türkontaktschalters bei geschlossener Fahrzeugtür, einem Sitzkontaktschalter bei Belegung und einem deaktivierten Zündschloßschalter sowie wahlweise zusätzlich einem Temperatursensor erfolgt, der durch einen Temperaturwert eines vormals betriebenen Motors steuerbar ist. This object is achieved according to the invention characterized in that at least one warning lamp in the outer area of the vehicle door and / or on Outside rear-view mirror is arranged and the control via a control unit with a series connection of a Door contact switch with closed vehicle door, a seat contact switch with occupancy and one deactivated ignition switch and optionally additionally a temperature sensor is carried out by a temperature value of a previously operated engine is controllable.  

Hierdurch ist es möglich, die Voraussetzungen für die frühzeitige Erkennung einer Türöffnung zur Vermeidung einer Gefährdung des Verkehrs auf einfache Weise zu erreichen. Durch diese verknüpfte Auslösekette wird somit ein optisches Warnsystem nach Durchführung einer Fahrt gewährleistet, ohne eine Warnfunktion bei jeder Türöffnung zu erzeugen. This makes it possible to meet the requirements for early detection of a door opening to avoid it danger to traffic in a simple manner to reach. Through this linked release chain thus an optical warning system after a Guaranteed ride without a warning function at everyone Generate door opening.  

Eine vorteilhafte Ausbildung besteht darin, daß die Warnlampen durch Leuchtdioden gebildet sind.An advantageous training is that the Warning lamps are formed by LEDs.

Weiterhin wird vorgeschlagen, daß eine Vielzahl von Leuchtdioden im Rückspiegel angeordnet ist. Hierdurch ist es möglich, relativ auffällig ein optisches Warnsignal abzugeben und auch den entsprechenden Fahrzeuginsassen zusätzlich auf die Gefahr bei einer Türöffnung aufmerksam zu machen.It is also proposed that a variety of LEDs is arranged in the rearview mirror. Hereby it is possible to be relatively eye-catching Give warning signal and also the corresponding Vehicle occupants also at the risk of a Draw attention to the door opening.

Eine weitere vorteilhafte Ausbildung besteht darin, daß die Warnlampen über eine Blinkschaltung angeordnet sind.Another advantageous training is that the warning lamps are arranged via a flashing circuit are.

In der Zeichnung ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung schematisch dargestellt. Es zeigen:In the drawing, an embodiment of the Invention shown schematically. Show it:

Fig. 1 eine Draufsicht auf ein Fahrzeug mit entsprechenden Sensoren und Fig. 1 is a plan view of a vehicle with appropriate sensors and

Fig. 2 ein Schaltungsprinzip als Blockschaltbild. Fig. 2 shows a circuit principle as a block diagram.

Die dargestellte Vorrichtung besteht im wesentlichen aus entsprechenden Schaltelementen, nämlich einem Türkontaktschalter 1, einem Sitzkontaktschalter 2, einem Zündschloßschalter 3 und einem Temperatursensor 4 für den Motor, die über eine Steuereinheit 5 Warnlampen 6 schalten. In diesem Fall sind Warnlampen 6 als Leuchtdioden im Außenrückspiegel 7 und zusätzlich Warnlampen 6 im Außenbereich einer zu öffnenden Fahrzeugtür 8 angeordnet.The device shown consists essentially of corresponding switching elements, namely a door contact switch 1 , a seat contact switch 2 , an ignition lock switch 3 and a temperature sensor 4 for the engine, which switch 5 warning lamps 6 via a control unit. In this case, warning lamps 6 are arranged as light-emitting diodes in the exterior rear-view mirror 7 and additionally warning lamps 6 in the exterior area of a vehicle door 8 to be opened.

Zur Ansteuerung der Warnlampen 6 über die Steuereinheit 5 ist ein geschlossener Türkontaktschalter 1 bei geschlossener Fahrzeugtür 8, ein Sitzkontaktschalter 2 bei Belegung des Fahrzeugsitzes 9 und ein deaktivierter Zündschloßschalter 3 als Reihenschaltung erforderlich, um eine Auslösung und Einschaltung der Warnlampen 6 zu bewirken.To activate the warning lamps 6 via the control unit 5 , a closed door contact switch 1 when the vehicle door 8 is closed, a seat contact switch 2 when the vehicle seat 9 is occupied, and a deactivated ignition lock switch 3 as a series connection are required to trigger and switch on the warning lamps 6 .

Zusätzlich zum deaktivierten Zündschloß in Form des Zündschloßschalter 3 kann wahlweise zusätzlich ein Temperatursensor 10 zur Erfassung des Temperaturwertes eines vormals betriebenen Motors eingesetzt werden. Hierdurch soll verhindert werden, daß beim Einsteigen in das Fahrzeug zur Abfahrt ebenfalls die Warnlampen 6 eingeschaltet werden.In addition to the deactivated ignition lock in the form of the ignition lock switch 3 , a temperature sensor 10 can optionally also be used to detect the temperature value of a previously operated engine. This is to prevent the warning lamps 6 from being switched on when entering the vehicle for departure.

Selbstverständlich kann eine Vorrichtung dieser Art an beiden Seiten des Fahrzeuges angeordnet sein. Es ist zweckmäßig, daß die Steuereinheit 5 nach Aktivierung der Warnlampen 6 über ein Zeitglied oder durch ein Steuersignal beim Schließen der Fahrzeugtür 8 von außen wieder eine Abschaltung der Warnlampen 6 vornimmt.Of course, a device of this type can be arranged on both sides of the vehicle. It is expedient that the control unit 5 switches off the warning lamps 6 again from the outside after activation of the warning lamps 6 via a timer or by a control signal when the vehicle door 8 is closed.
