Abstract

The LED illumination is integrated in motor cycle helmet for illuminating ambient environment. There may be more than one LED units, with own current supply, independently, or in combination activated by switch(es).Instead of continuous operation, the LEDs may be operated by time switch for certain operational intervals. Extra LEDs may provide rearwards illumination, while timed illumination may provide blinker light, e.g. in case of accident.

Description

In den Motorradhelm eingebaute LED-Beleuchtung.LED lighting built into the motorcycle helmet.

Eine LED-Beleuchtung, die in Motorradhelme fest eingebaut ist, gibt es bislang nicht.LED lighting used in motorcycle helmets has not been permanently installed.

Der in Schutzanspruch 1 angegebenen Erfindung liegt das Problem zugrunde, dem Motorradhehnträger eine Lichtquelle zur Verfügung zu stellen, mit der er bei Dunkelheit sein Sichtfeld beleuchten kann.The specified in claim 1 protection Invention is based on the problem of a motorcycle rack carrier Light source available with which he can illuminate his field of vision in the dark.

Dieses Problem wird mit den im Schutzanspruch 1 aufgeführten Merkmalen gelöst.This problem is with the protection claim 1 listed Features resolved.

Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung der Erfindung ist in den Schutzansprüchen 2 und 3 angegeben.An advantageous embodiment of the Invention is in the claims 2 and 3 specified.

Die Weiterbildung nach Schutzanspruch 2 sieht statt der Dauerlichtschaltung eine zeitlich begrenzte Schaltung (Timerschalter) vor.Continuing education according to protection claims 2 sees a time-limited switching instead of the permanent light switching (Timer switch).

Die Weiterbildung nach Schutzanspruch 3 sieht eine zusätzliche LED-Beleuchtung auf der Helmrückseite vor. Zusammen mit der Frontbeleuchtung kann sie z.B. im Fall einer Panne als Warnblinklicht dienen und die Sicherheit des Motorradhelmträgers erhöhen.Continuing education according to protection claims 3 sees an additional one LED lighting on the back of the helmet in front. Together with the front lighting, it can e.g. in the case of one Breakdown serve as a hazard warning light and increase the safety of the motorcycle helmet wearer.

Mit der Erfindung wird erreicht, dass der Motorradhelmträger im Dunkeln keine Taschenlampe benutzen muss. Der Motorradhelmträger hat dadurch beide Hände frei und kann sich trotzdem orientieren.With the invention it is achieved that the motorcycle helmet wearer no need to use a flashlight in the dark. The motorcycle helmet wearer has thereby both hands free and can still orientate.

Eine Leuchtdiode benötigt wesentlich weniger Strom als eine Glühbirne mit Wendel oder eine Entladungsleuchte. Daher reicht zur langfristigen Versorgung einer oder mehrerer Leuchtdioden eine kleine Stromquelle (z. B. Knopfzelle, Mignon LR 6 AA 1,5 V) aus. Das zusätzliche Gewicht durch die Leuchtdioden, Schalter und Stromquelle ist so gering, dass es subjektiv durch den Motorradhelmträger nicht wahrgenommen wird. Eine Leuchtdiode erheblich unempfindlicher gegen Stöße als eine Glühbirne mit Wendel. Eine Leuchtdiode hat zudem eine erheblich längere Leucht- und Lebensdauer als eine Glühbirne Bei fachgerechter Konstruktion des Gesamtsystems aus Motorradhelm und LED-Einheit entstehen keine sicherheitsrelevanten Nachteile am Motorradhelm.A light emitting diode is essential less electricity than a light bulb with filament or a discharge lamp. Therefore, long-term care is sufficient one or more LEDs a small current source (e.g. Button cell, Mignon LR 6 AA 1.5 V). The additional weight due to the LEDs, Switch and power source is so low that it's subjectively by the motorcycle helmet wearer is perceived. A light emitting diode is considerably less sensitive to Bumps as one Lightbulb with Wendel. A light-emitting diode also has a considerably longer light and lifespan as a light bulb With proper construction of the overall system made of motorcycle helmet and LED unit, there are no safety-related disadvantages on the motorcycle helmet.

Claims (3)

In einen Motorradhelm integrierte LED-Beleuchtung mit eigener Stromversorgung zur Beleuchtung der Umgebung außerhalb des Helms. – Es können 1- × LED-Einheiten in einen Motorradhelm integriert sein (18), die unabhängig voneinander oder in Kombination durch Schalter betätigt werden können. – Eine LED-Einheit umfasst einen ein/aus – Schalter, eine Stromquelle sowie 1-× Leuchtdioden zur Ausleuchtung der Umgebung in Blickrichtung des Motorradhelmträgers. – Eine individuelle Feineinstellung (durch den Benutzer) der LED-Einheit frei in alle Raumwinkel soll möglich sein (5, 6,7).LED lighting integrated into a motorcycle helmet with its own power supply to illuminate the surroundings outside the helmet. - 1 × LED units can be integrated in a motorcycle helmet ( 1 - 8th ) that can be operated independently or in combination by switches. - An LED unit includes an on / off switch, a power source and 1 × light-emitting diodes for illuminating the surroundings as seen by the motorcycle helmet wearer. - An individual fine adjustment (by the user) of the LED unit freely in all solid angles should be possible ( 5 . 6 . 7 ). In einen Motorradhelm integrierte LED-Beleuchtung nach Schutzanspruch 1. – Statt des Dauerbetriebs kann die LED so geschaltet werden, dass ihre Betriebsdauer zeitlich begrenzt ist (Timerschalter).LED lighting integrated into a motorcycle helmet according to protection claim 1. - Instead of of continuous operation, the LED can be switched so that its operating time is limited in time (timer switch). In einen Motorradhelm integrierte LED-Beleuchtung nach Schutzanspruch 1. – zusätzliche LED-Beleuchtung auf der Helmrückseite (9). Durch Intervallschaltung aller LED-Einheiten können diese als Warnblinklicht genutzt werden. So wären Motorradfahrer bei Pannen im Dunkeln besser zu erkennen.LED lighting integrated in a motorcycle helmet according to claim 1. - additional LED lighting on the back of the helmet ( 9 ). By interval switching of all LED units, these can be used as hazard warning lights. This would make it easier to recognize motorcyclists when they break down in the dark.
