Abstract

The layout is intended to define the working area round a vehicle accident, tyre changing or loading area. The particular feature is that the lights are connected together to form the desired layout but having a tripod design can be stacked for compact storage. A cap (5) is fitted over the flashing light to prevent damage, and the connecting wire (6) is not crushed as a free space (7) is left between the lamp. One of the legs can be pivoted so that the lamp can be folded flat. The light can have a scissor type height extension. The container for the lamps can also be furnished with the necessary fittings and clamps for connection to the power supply.

Description

Titel:Mobile Warnblinkanlage,vorzugsweise zur Abgrenzung des Ar-Title: Mobile hazard warning lights, preferably to demarcate the ar-

beitsbereiches außerhalb von Fahrzeugen bei Motor- und Reifenpannen,Unfällen,Be- und Entladevorgängen usw. working area outside of vehicles in the event of engine and tire breakdowns, accidents, and unloading processes, etc.

Die vom Gesetzgeber z.B. für Kraftfahrzeuge vorgeschriebene Warnblinkanlage reicht in vielen Fällen nicht aus.Hazard warning lights required by law, e.g. for motor vehicles is not enough in many cases.

Es wird zwar das Hindernis selbst gekennzeichnet,der jedoch außerhalb des Fahrzeuges befindliche Mensch,beispielsweise beim Reifenwechsel an der linken Fahrtrichtungsseite,besitzt keine weithin sichtbare,abgegrenzte und damit sichere Schutzzone.The obstacle itself is marked, but the one outside of the vehicle, for example when changing a tire on the left Direction of travel side, has no widely visible, demarcated and therefore safe Protection zone.

Immer wieder passieren tödliche Unfälle,die nicht sein müßten.Fatal accidents happen again and again that don't have to be.

Unfallmeldungen,uie die nachfolgende,sind an der Tagesordnung: Der Wagenlenker wurde beim Wechseln des defekten Autoreifens vom Anhänger eines vorbeifahrenden Lastzuges gestreift,an sein Fahrzeug geschleudert und dabei tödlich verletzt." Dies passiert deshalb,da wie schon vorhin erwähnt,die zwingende Leitlinie bzw. Schutzzone um das Hindernis herum, fehlt.Accident reports, including the following, are the order of the day: The Charioteer was driving by while changing the defective car tire from the trailer The truck streaked, hurled against his vehicle and fatally injured in the process. "This therefore happens, as already mentioned, the mandatory guideline or protection zone around the obstacle is missing.

Besonders kritisch wird dieses Fehlen bei Nacht oder schlechter Sicht.This lack is particularly critical at night or when visibility is poor.

Der Zweck,der im Titel genannten Erfindung liegt also darin, eine bereits aus größerer Entfernung gut erkennbare,leicht aufstellbare und bei Nichtgebrauch platzsparende Kennzeichnung des unmittelbaren Arbeits- und damit Gefahrenbereiches zu erzielen.The purpose of the invention mentioned in the title is therefore to provide a Easily recognizable and easy to set up even from a great distance and When not in use, space-saving identification of the immediate work area and thus To achieve danger area.

Der vorbeifließende Verkehr wird somit beim Hindernis durch eine vorgegebene Leitlinie in einem bestimmten Sicherheitsabstand(Arbeitsbereich um das Hindernis herum) vorbeigeleitet.The passing traffic is thus given the obstacle by a predetermined Guideline at a certain safety distance (working area around the obstacle around).

Individuelle Abstandsschätzungen der vorbeifahrenden Fahrzeuglenker sowie auch des Pannenbehebers werden ausgeschaltet und die außerhalb des liegengebliebenen Fahrzeuges befindliche Person hat einen Arbeitsbereich,in dem sie sich mit ziemlicher Sicherheit ungefährdet bewegen kann.Individual distance estimates of the vehicle drivers driving by as well as the breakdown repairer are switched off and those outside of the broken down The person in the vehicle has a work area in which they can be quite Security can move safely.
