Abstract

Sensor (Sender) zum Einbau in Fahrzeuge die mit Blaulicht eine ampelregulierte Kreuzung überqueren müssen, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Sensor mit Einschalten des Blaulichts aus einer Distanz von 150–250 Metern Entfernung zu der Ampel, ein Signal abgiebt durch welches die Ampelanlage in alle Fahrtrichtungen auf Rot schaltet.Sensor (transmitter) for installation in vehicles that have to cross a traffic light-regulated intersection with blue light, characterized in that the sensor emits a signal when the blue light is switched on from a distance of 150-250 meters from the traffic light, through which the traffic light system in all directions switches to red.

Description

Ein immer größer werdendes Problem im Straßenverkehr ist heutzutage das stetig steigende Verkehrsaufkommen. Dies ist vor allem in Städten zu beobachten. Dieses hohe Verkehrsaufkommen birgt ein großes Risiko für Rettungsfahrzeuge und die zu rettenden Personen, sowie für Dienstfahrzeuge mit Blaulicht. Insbesondere an Straßenkreuzungen an denen der Verkehr durch Ampelanlagen geregelt wird, kommt es häufig zu Zeitverlust des Rettungsfahrzeuges, welcher im Falle eines lebensbedrohlichen Notfalls über Leben und Tod entscheiden kann. Nicht weniger selten sind schwere Verkehrsunfälle die an solchen Kreuzungen entstehen können, da das Rettungsfahrzeug oder das Dienstfahrzeug unabhängig von der Ampelfarbe die Kreuzung passiert und so überhört oder übersehen werden kann.An ever-increasing problem in traffic today is the ever-increasing traffic. This is especially noticeable in cities. This high traffic volume poses a great risk for rescue vehicles and those to be rescued, as well as for service vehicles with blue lights. Especially at intersections where the traffic is regulated by traffic lights, it often leads to loss of time of the rescue vehicle, which can decide in case of a life-threatening emergency about life and death. No less rare are serious traffic accidents that can occur at such intersections, as the rescue vehicle or service vehicle, regardless of the traffic light color, the intersection happens and can be overheard or overlooked.

Der im Schutzanspruch 1 angegebenen Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, an gefährlichen ampelregulierten Straßenkreuzungen mehr Sicherheit für Rettungsfahrzeuge, bzw. Dienstfahrzeugen mit Blaulicht, zu schaffen.The specified in the protection claim 1 invention is based on the problem at dangerous traffic-regulated road intersections to provide more security for rescue vehicles, or service vehicles with blue light.

Dieses Problem wird mit denen im Schutzanspruch 1 aufgeführten Merkmalen gelöst.This problem is solved with those listed in the protection claim 1 features.

Mit der Erfindung wird erreicht, dass weniger Verkehrsunfälle an Kreuzungen bei Einsatz eines Rettungs- oder Dienstfahrzeuges entstehen. Durch den Einbau eines Sensors in die Fahrzeuge und in die Ampelanlage schaltet die Ampel automatisch in alle Fahrtrichtungen auf Rot wenn sich ein Fahrzeug mit Blaulicht nähert. So kann das Fahrzeug ungehindert und ohne Unfallrisiko die Kreuzung passieren. Danach setzt die Ampel die gewohnte Verkehrsregelung fort.With the invention it is achieved that less traffic accidents occur at intersections when using a rescue or service vehicle. By installing a sensor in the vehicles and in the traffic light system, the traffic light automatically switches to red in all directions when a vehicle approaches with blue light. This allows the vehicle to pass the intersection unhindered and without any risk of accident. Then the traffic light continues the usual traffic control.
