Description

Anordnung zur Anzeige des Fahrzustandes von Kraftfahrbeugen für den nachfolgenden Verkehr Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anordnung zur Anzeige des Fahrzustandes von Kraftfahrzeugen für@den nachfolgenden Verkehr.Arrangement for the display of the driving status of motor vehicle bends for the subsequent traffic The invention relates to an arrangement for Display of the driving status of vehicles for the following traffic.

Im Straßenverkehr hat es sich schon oft als Ursache für Auffahrunfälle erwiesen, daß der nachfolgende Verkehr nicht rechtzeitig erkennen kann, ob ein vorausfahrendes Kraftfahrzeug die Geschwindigkeit verringert, obwohl noch keine Bremsung erfolgt ist, also die Bremsleuchten nicht aufleuchten. Eine derartige Verzögerung eines Kraftfahrzeuges tritt bekanntlich immer dann ein, wenn das Gaspedal in die Leerlaufstellung zurückgenommen wird. Der Vorausfahrende, der in einiger Entfernung ein Hindernis beobachtet, da nooh keine unmittelbare Breasung erfordert, nimmt erfahrungsgemäß zuvor den Fuß vom Gaspedal, so daß dieses in die Leorlaufstellung zurückkehrt und sich die Geschwindigkeit seines Fahrzeuges verringert. Die eigentliche Bremsung erfolgt erst verhältnismäßig spät, da sich die Fahrgeschwindigkeit schon verringert hat, ohne daß die Brennen betätigt werden müssen . - En nachfolgender fahrer kann Jedoch häufig genug das erwähnte Hindernis, das der Voranfahrende bereits gesehen hat, selbst nicht erkennen, weil dieses Hindernis beispielsweise von dem Vorausfahrenden Kraftfahrzeug verdeckt wird. In road traffic it has often been the cause of rear-end collisions proved that the traffic behind cannot recognize in time whether there is a vehicle ahead Motor vehicle reduces its speed, although no braking has yet taken place is, so the brake lights do not light up. Such a delay one As is known, motor vehicle always occurs when the accelerator pedal is in the idle position is withdrawn. The one in front who is an obstacle some distance away observed, since nooh does not require immediate breasing, experience has shown that it takes beforehand take your foot off the accelerator pedal so that it returns to the leopard position and the speed of his vehicle is reduced. The actual braking takes place relatively late because the driving speed is already reduced without having to operate the burners. - A subsequent driver can Often enough, however, the mentioned obstacle, which the driver in front has already seen did not recognize himself, because this obstacle, for example, from the vehicle in front Motor vehicle is covered.

Das nachfolgende Kraftfahrzeug fährt daher mit unverminderter Geschwindigkeit weiter und muß im Falle eines unvor- 0 hersehbaren Bremsmanövers des Vorausfahrenden schon stärker abgebremst werden, so daß ein weiteres, diesem stärker abgebremsten Fahrzeug folgendes Kraftfahrzeug zu einer Notbremsung gezwungen wird, die oftmals eine Kollision nicht mehr verhindern kann. The following motor vehicle therefore travels at an undiminished speed further and must in the event of an unforeseeable braking maneuver by the vehicle in front already more strongly decelerated, so that another, this more strongly decelerated Vehicle following motor vehicle is forced to an emergency braking, which often can no longer prevent a collision.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine Anordnung schaffen, die dem nachfolgenden Verkehr eine Verzögerung eines vorausfahrenden Fahrzeuges bereits dann anzeigt, wenn dieses Fahrzeug noch nicht gebremst wird, wohl aber wegen Unterbrechung der Antriebskraft eine Verzögerung erfährt.The invention is based on the object of an arrangement create, the following traffic causes a deceleration of a vehicle in front already indicates when this vehicle is not yet braked, but probably because of it Interruption of the driving force experiences a delay.

Erfindungsgemäß wird diese Aufgabe dadurch gelöst, daß eine zusätzliche elektrische Warnleuchte am Ileck des Kraftfahrzeuges angeordnet ist, die durch einen mit dem Gasgestänge dieses Kraftfahrzeuges verbundenen Schalter selbsttätig eingeschaltet wird, wenn das Gaspedal in die Leerlaufstellung zurückgenommen wird.According to the invention this object is achieved in that an additional electrical warning light is arranged on the Ileck of the motor vehicle, which is through a automatically switched on with the throttle linkage of this motor vehicle connected switch when the accelerator pedal is returned to the idle position.

Der erwähnte Schalter1 der mit dein Gasgestänge verbunden ist, wird vorteilhaft als sog. Endschalter ausgebildet, der in der leerlaufstellung des Gasgestänges stets geschlossen ist.The mentioned switch1, which is connected to your throttle linkage, is advantageously designed as a so-called limit switch, which is in the idle position of the throttle linkage is always closed.

Da der Warnstromkreis lediglich dann an Spannung liegen soll, wenn das Kraftfahrzeug betrieben wird, wird nach einem weiteren Erfindungsgedanken der Stromkreis der Warnleuchte parallel zum Zündstromkreis geschaltet, so daß er nur dann an Spannung liegt, wenn der Zündstrom eingeschaltet worden ist.Since the warning circuit should only be connected to voltage when the motor vehicle is operated, according to a further inventive concept of the Circuit of the warning light connected in parallel with the ignition circuit, so that he only voltage is present when the ignition current has been switched on.

Die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung bietet mit einfachsten Mitteln die Gewähr dafür, daß Jede Leerlaufstellung des Gaspedals eines Fahrzeuges von dem Fahrer eines nachfolgenden Fahrzeuges sofort erkannt wird und dieser sein Fahrverhalten danach richten kann, d.h., seine Fahrgeschwindigkeit ebenfalls herabsetzen wird. Damit ist eine wesentliche Gefahrenquelle fUr Auffahrunfälle beseitigt Sobald das vorausfahrende Kraftfahrzeug wieder beschleunigt wird, offnet der mit dem Gasgestänge verbundene Schalter zwangshäufig seine Kontakte und die Warnleuchte erlischt.The arrangement according to the invention offers the simplest means Ensuring that every idle position of the accelerator pedal of a vehicle by the driver of a following vehicle is recognized immediately and its driving behavior can act accordingly, i.e. will also reduce its driving speed. This eliminates a major source of danger for rear-end collisions the vehicle ahead is accelerated again, the opens with the throttle linkage connected switch inevitably its contacts and the warning light goes out.

Die erfindungsgemäße Warnleuchte wird bei Personenkraftwagen vorteilhaft unterhalb der hinteren Stoßstange in der Mitte des Fahrzeuges angeordnet, um eine von den übrigen am Heck des Fahrzeuges befindlichen, gesetzlich vorgeschriebenen leuchten (Brems-, Blink- und Schlußleuchten) deutlich verschiedene Position zu gewährleisten.The warning light according to the invention is advantageous in passenger cars placed below the rear bumper in the middle of the vehicle to a of the other legally required ones located at the rear of the vehicle lights (brake lights, indicators and tail lights) to ensure clearly different positions.

Bei Lastkraftfahrzeugen wird nach eine; weiteren Erfindungsgedanken die zusätzliche Warnleuchte dicht oberhalb des Nusmernschildes angebracht wodurch ebenfalls eine von den dbrigen, gesetzlich vorgeschriebenen Leuchten am Heck des Fahrzeuges verschiedene Position gesichert piste Die erfindungsgemäß vorgesehene Warnleuchte erhält vorteilhaft ein gelbes Licht, das den Kraftfahrern ohnehin als Anzeichen für eine Vorwarnung von den Straßenverkehrsampeln her geläufig ist.In the case of trucks, after a; further inventive ideas the additional warning light is attached just above the Nusmern label also one of the other legally required lights on the rear of the Vehicle's different position secured piste The one provided according to the invention Warning light is advantageously given a yellow light, which the motorists anyway as Signs for an advance warning from the traffic lights is common.

Die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung besitzt weiterhin den Vorteil, daß sie mit außerordentlich geringen Kosten auch nachträglich in jedes Kraftfahrzeug eingebaut werden kann.The arrangement according to the invention also has the advantage that they can also be retrofitted into any motor vehicle at extremely low cost can be installed.
