Abstract

A controller (1) with evaluation unit (4), is coupled to the horn switch on the steering wheel. These enable simultaneous activation of both the horn (2) and the full beam function or headlamp flasher (3), when the horn is used.

Description

BESCHREIBUNGDESCRIPTION Warnsignal-Steuerungs-System für FahrzeugeWarning signal control system for vehicles

Jedes Fahrzeug, weist eine Hupen und Lichthupen Funktion auf. Die Hupe wird durch Betätigen der Lenkrad-Schalter aktiviert. Die Lichthupe ist meist über den gleichen Schalter, der die Scheinwerfer einschaltet, gesteuert. Durch kurzes Betätigen wird der Scheinwerfer eingeschaltet und damit der Vordermann oder ein Fahrzeug, das sich etwas seitlich von uns befindet, gewarnt.Every vehicle has a horn and headlight flasher function. The horn is activated by pressing the steering wheel switch. The headlight flasher is usually controlled by the same switch that turns on the headlights. A brief press turns on the headlights and warns the vehicle in front or a vehicle that is slightly to the side of us.

Es ist jedoch öfters sehr effektiv, wenn man die Lichthupe und die akustische Hupe gleichzeitig aktivieren kann.However, it is often very effective if you can activate the headlight flash and the acoustic horn at the same time.

Der in den Schutzansprüchen 1 bis 5 angegebenen Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde ein System zu schaffen, das beim Betätigen eines Schalters, z.B. Lenkrad-Hupen-Schalter oder Lichthupen-Schalter, beide Warnsignale (Hupe und Lichthupe) gleichzeitig aktiviert.The invention specified in claims 1 to 5 is based on the problem of creating a system which, when a switch is operated, e.g. a steering wheel horn switch or a headlight flasher switch, activates both warning signals (horn and headlight flasher) simultaneously.

Dieses Problem wird mit den in den Schutzansprüchen 1 bis 5 aufgeführten Merkmalen gelöst.This problem is solved by the features listed in claims 1 to 5.

Ein Vorteil der Erfindung ist eine bessere Unfall-Vorbeugung durch doppelte Warnsignale.One advantage of the invention is better accident prevention through double warning signals.

In der Fig. 1 ist ein Ausführungsbeispiel der Erfindung dargestellt.An embodiment of the invention is shown in Fig. 1.

Das System besteht aus einer Steuereinheit 1, welche die Hupe 2 und Lichthupe 3 gleichzeitig über eine Auswerte-Einheit 4 steuert. Sie ist mit dem Lenkrad-Hupen-Schalter 5 gekoppelt. Auch eine Variante, wobei die Lichthupen-Schalter 6 dafür genutzt wird, um beide Warnsignalen abzugeben, ist vorgesehen.The system consists of a control unit 1, which controls the horn 2 and the headlight flasher 3 simultaneously via an evaluation unit 4. It is coupled to the steering wheel horn switch 5. A variant in which the headlight flasher switch 6 is used to emit both warning signals is also provided.

Die Variante mit einer Strobo-Blitz-Röhre 7 kann auch dafür verwendet werden. Sie wird über dem Lenkrad-Hupen-Schalter 5 gleichzeitig mit der Hupe aktiviert. Die Strobo-Blitz-Röhre kann in den Scheinwerfer integriert werden.The variant with a strobe flash tube 7 can also be used for this. It is activated via the steering wheel horn switch 5 at the same time as the horn. The strobe flash tube can be integrated into the headlight.

Warning signal control system for vehicles, characterized in that it consists of at least - a control unit which is coupled to the steering wheel horn switch and which makes it possible to activate the horn and the high beam function or headlight flash simultaneously when the horn switch is operated, - an evaluation unit which is coupled to the control unit and which can activate the horn and headlight flasher simultaneously. 2. Warnsignal-Steuerungs-System für Fahrzeuge, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass der Schalter, der die Lichthupe aktiviert, zusätzlich mit der Akustischen-Hupe gekoppelt ist. 2. Warning signal control system for vehicles, characterized in that the switch which activates the headlight flasher is additionally coupled to the acoustic horn. 3. Warnsignal-Steuerungs-System für Fahrzeuge nach Anspruch 1 oder 2, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass das System eine Steuerung, die beim einmaliges Betätigen der Schalter oder Lenkrad-Hupenschalter, mehrmals die Hupe und/oder die Lichthupe hintereinander in kurzen Zeitintervallen ähnlich wie ein Stroboskop aktiviert, aufweist. 3. Warning signal control system for vehicles according to claim 1 or 2, characterized in that the system has a control which, when the switch or steering wheel horn switch is operated once, activates the horn and/or the headlight flash several times in succession at short time intervals, similar to a stroboscope. 4. Warnsignal-Steuerungs-System für Fahrzeuge, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass er mit einem Strobo-Blitz-Licht-System über mindestens einer Blitz- Röhre als Lichthupen-System, der über dem gleichen Lenkrad-Schalter mit der Hupe gleichzeitig aktivierbar ist, ausgestattet ist. 4. Warning signal control system for vehicles, characterized in that it is equipped with a strobe flash light system via at least one flash tube as a headlight flasher system, which can be activated simultaneously with the horn via the same steering wheel switch. 5.
