DE3305555A1 - Device for warning of a vehicle travelling in the wrong direction in any oneway system, for passenger cars, lorries, motorcycles - Google Patents

Abstract

For the prevention of disoriented drivers driving the wrong way on the motorway or driving into streets in a direction which is not permitted. Warning signals are generated by a buzzing tone and flashing light on the dashboard with simultaneous switching on of the hazard indicator system of the vehicle. After driving 5 or 6 m incorrectly into the motorway exit, three current-conducting contact thresholds which are arranged parallel to one another and are at different distances from one another (3.2) are present. As a result, a distinction is made on the dashboard between leaving an exit correctly, and at the same time no warning being issued, and entering a motorway incorrectly, and at the same time a warning being given. This distinction is brought about by the "time pulse switch" (11/32) which decides, after the respective third touch contact has been triggered, whether or not a warning is to be issued to the driver driving in the wrong direction. If the pulse times or pulse routes passed through are "long-short", the driver driving the wrong way is warned. The necessary contact thresholds are located in a raised position on the carriageway surface and embedded in bitumen so that the required two sliding contacts attached to a mudflap cannot activate the warning signals when passing through puddles. Therefore, there is a safety distance between the lower edge of the sliding contact and the surface of the carriageway of approximately 8 cm. After the warning occurs, the warning signals automatically switch off again. The hazard indicator system has to be subsequently switched off again manually.

Patent application

The invention relates to a wrong-way warning device for cars, trucks / Kot orrad.

Application gSjg ebi e ti

All motorway exits and all other entrances in the direction of which you are not allowed to drive.

Purpose of the invention :

Avoidance of so-called ghost drivers on the autobahn and the associated danger for those on the other side coming vehicles, as well as for the wrong-way driver himself.

The warning device is on the dashboard of the vehicles appropriate.

State of the art:

It is not known.

State of the art criticism:

No criticism of the state of the art possible, because the Prior art is not known.

Ex a b e;

The invention is based on the object of preventing wrong-way driving into the motorway exits © Achievable benefits:

It is safer to use the motorways, in contrast to the acute danger from the so-called wrong-way drivers.

G-e compared to, for example, a photoelectric off = leadership, the electrical energy in the vehicle itself * is used to solve the task.

So there is no need for external energy _? for example in the form of accumulators on the motorway, sur feeding a light barrier.

Solution :

Warning signal generated by buzzing sound and flashing light on the Arma = door board, while the hazard warning lights on the outside of the vehicle are automatically switched on at the same time.

Activated by zJ3. Abrasive belts or abrasive brushes or contact rollers on the front or rear mud flaps, at Driving over three parallel contacts = sleepers or contact rails on the roadway.

Warning signal generation only if really in is retracted in the wrong direction.

If you drive out of the autobahn properly, there is no warning.

Description of the invention :

Immediately after about 5-6m wrong entry into the motorway exit " there are three contact thresholds, contact rails

I 1 jf 2 J j J j , mounted exactly at right angles to the middle of the road, parallel to each other.

Figure 1:

Shows the transition between road and vehicle.

Reaches the vehicle entering the motorway incorrectly

the third contact threshold f 3 j, the warning device switched on in the vehicle.

It switches itself off again after a warning period of 20 seconds.

It is assumed that these 20 seconds warning time are sufficient to let the wrong-way driver recognize his mistake and now backwards, as soon as the situation allows you to leave the motorway again »

In addition, when the warning device in the vehicle is triggered, the external hazard warning lights switch on.

This means that there is also a visible warning to the outside for the vehicles that are moving out correctly.

The invention only warns of wrong entry into the motorway.

So if you drive backwards out of the motorway exit, into which you have entered 15-2Om incorrectly, depending on the speed, and have been warned, then when the three contact thresholds are now forced to reach the three contact thresholds in the sequence f "5 \ \ 2 / j 1 j nothing, regarding the warning activation.

In other words, the contact that now arises when crossing the contact thresholds now has no influence on the warning sound previously triggered in the wrong direction and the hazard warning lights in the vehicle.

The hazard warning lights remain switched on and: nu?

later beir.i total '/ enacted the highway from iland be switched off (as soon as you drive backwards on the autobahn has left.)

S ~

The three contact thresholds on the road have different ones Distances to each other.

If you drive right out of the autobahn, you come in in each case over the three contact thresholds.

However, there is no warning here because the pulse times = sequence "KURZ-LAFG-».

So there is a pulse time evaluation for the warning device = in the vehicle.

If you drive the wrong way onto the autobahn, the impulse times are: "LONG-SHORT" and are activated by the warning device in the vehicle processed to warn the wrongly driven motorway user.

If the impulses "SHORT-LONG" come, also registered in this one If the warning device has these pulses, these pulse times = order.

But there is no warning. The warning device is not activated.

The electrically conductive grinding belts 2 are attached to the dirt traps 1, or contact rollers 48 or. Contact brushes 2.1 which by means of strand 53 when touching between contact thresholds f3 [and the grinding belts or contact brushes, or the Kon = timing rollers, establish electrical contact with the warning device in the vehicle.

The contact thresholds are located in a bitumen layer 4 to be subsequently applied to the roadway. The distance "a" between the upper edge of the track and the lower edge of the grinding roller (contact roller) or the lower edge of the grinding belt, or the lower edge of the sanding brush is approximately 3 cm.

The! Sanding belts, or contact rollers, or the grinding brushes, there will be two pieces for the transfer of contacts used, so they touch the streets while driving = surface not.

Even when driving through V / asserlachen (puddles) on the In the roadway, no contact can be made with the warning system (warning device).

The bitumen layer elevation is necessary so that there is a sufficient safety distance "a" between the lower edge of the sanding belt or the lower edge of the contact roller, hz, \ i, iiontaktbürsten = lower edge and upper edge of the roadway.

Figure 2:

Shows the arrangement of the contact thresholds on the motorway, which are necessary to obtain the WRONG TRUE TRIBTG- from the To be able to differentiate between the correct extension direction for the evaluation in the vv'arnein = direction.

The pulse times are evaluated in the warning device = ^ .-.;:

management of the vehicle.

When "FALSCHEIFFAHItEK" and reaching the contact threshold

j 5 j , the contact in the contact circuit is electrically closed. (Figure 3).

Ss now comes to the warning of the wrong-way driver. The parallel distances of the Zontakt thresholds are different, for example = y = 50cm and x = JO cm.

One could of course use the I-aies of the distances χ and y change, but one must suffice.d big difference for them Impulse lines are retained so that the ', warning device functions.

s-

In addition, a minimum dimension / 3 of χ and y must be given, because of the required duty cycle of the two servomotors PA / 25 contained in the time pulse switch 11 and 32, which each extend a threaded spindle or a rack in the + ^ direction or in the - x direction .

If you drive in the wrong way, the "long-short" impulses come first and are used as a warning by the time impulse switch 11/32 processed by the wrong-way driver.

The contact threshold j 1 / is parallel to the contact threshold | 2 { and this again arranged parallel to the contact threshold j 5 J.

So when driving the wrong way into the autobahn: When reaching the third contact threshold f 3 I with · the sequence of the impulse times: "LAiTG-KURZ", the warning on and the warning flashing light on the dashboard and the hazard warning lights are activated in the vehicle.

He lets the threaded spindle 33 extend to the right. If then contact f 3] »comes, the servomotor? 5 is switched off. The G-thread spindle 33 is stopped in its travel movement.

The servomotors 24/25 thus indirectly effect the contact = would give the warning signal circuit of the warning system. (Figure 4)

The interval pressure switch 7 is actuated by the switch lever 8. This is activated after each actuation of the Inter = pressure switch 7 automatically by the return = spring 9 withdrawn to the full position. The shift lever 8 moves then to the pressure piece 14 of the interval pressure switch when the weak current coil 10 through the dirt trap = contacts 2 / 2.1 / 48 receives power.

In the figure, the time pulse switch 11 is in a triangular shape, The alternatively provided time = pulse switch 32 is switched in exactly the same way. (See also Figures 4; 6; 8: 9; 11; 21.)

As soon as the vehicle engine is running, the contact circuit is activated by the total activation switch 1? closed and then again after switching off the vehicle's engine with the ignition key separated.

The shift lever housing 13 takes the interval pressure switch 7, the shift lever 8, the return spring 9 and the low power = reel 10.

Only when the time pulse switch 11/32 with its contacts 20.1 / 20.2 touches contacts 21.1 / 21.2, the signal current flows through the automatic time limiter 18, through the buzzer 15 and through the I31ink lamp 16, and lets thus address the warning device in the vehicle.

The bimetal is now heated by the flowing current and thereby bends away from contact 22 towards contact 23. (Birnetall = 19).

But this only happens after a warning time of 20 seconds. The warning sound and the hazard warning lights in the vehicle are thus switched off, but not the hazard warning system.

The signal current now flows through the transistor taper 17 and reverses the direction of rotation of the two servomotors 24/25.

These now leave the two threaded spindles 34/35 in Run back to the starting position.

The pulse times t and t tm are of different lengths. It is so that t ^ t. _t is. This results from the spacing between the three parallel contact thresholds | 1 f \ 2 \ [3 ( , (SIEIIS FIG-UJi 2) with their distances χ and j to each other.

The time pulse switch 11 processes, evaluates to mechani = Shem way the pulse times t and t and decides whether the warning device is activated or not.

This is done using route comparison s and s.

(See Figure 7).

BAD ORiGiNAU

When driving onto the autobahn, the time pulse switch 11 flips to the left, simply for the reason that the resulting overall center of gravity "of both extended NEN threaded spindles 33 and 34 around the -s- , to -x direction, that is, to the left the time pulse switch axis 31 is located.

In the time pulse switch axis of rotation 31 are equal to = early the torsion bars 31

The angle Ci is set (see FIGS. 8 and 9).

This angle QL must be so large that when driving through the pulse paths, even when the vehicle is traveling at high speed, contacts 21.1 and 21.2 are reached by contacts 20.1 and 20.2.

3if contact 20.1 and 21.1 are superimposed, this is the Warning device switched on. (See Figure 4) ♦ The signal current now flows through the automatic timer = limiter 18 to buzzer 15 and flashing lamp 16. Bas bimetal 19 heats up and interrupts the signal circuit between Buzzer 15 and flashing lamp 16 after 20 seconds of delay.

The contact to the transistor umpole 17 is now made.

The TilAMSISTOliUtiPOLliit 17 reverses the servomotor speed directions and thus brings the C-thread spindles 33 and 34 back into horizontal position. (Angle uL = I-iull) 1 The connections for this are positions 35. (See Figure 3 / -) ·

Figure 11:

Shows the erecting circuit with which the horizontal position of the Zeitimpulsscialtern 11 is restored.

The mode of action is as follows:

After the bimetal 19 moves away from contact 2? to contact 23 has bent and stays in contact there until "until it has cooled down again, it bends back to contact 2?"

The warning device is thus ready for use again.

During this contact time at contact 23, the two servomotors 24 and 25 run, due to transistor inverters 17 with the opposite direction of rotation and convey the thread = spindles 33 and 34 back to the starting position, i.e. Horizon = valley position back!

The balance has thus been reached in terms of its center of gravity.

The bimetal 19 must remain at the contact 23 until the Horizontal position of the time pulse switch 11 is reached. The warning device activates itself again.

The two servomotors ? A and 25 must have limit switches 89, which enable the two G-winding spins to be in the end position (horizontal position). (See also Figure 28).

Shows the transistor taper 17 with the connections 35.

It is a purchase part. Its mode of operation is such that in accordance with Figure 11 the Aufrichtstroiu flows through it and. thereby the both servomotors are reversed in their directions of rotation

No warning signal can be generated because switch 82 disconnects the circuit between A and B. The resistors R and R ^ , which were switched by the running Stellmo = gates in the left and right time pulse switch = strokreislauf, are therefore necessary so that the respective total resistance in the time pulse switch 32 is so large that the cream sticks during the running process 54 and. 55 the Lotor 90 does not start.
