Abstract

A device (electronic selenium optical memory) is proposed which electronically (10) switches on the necessary lighting of the vehicle for exposure control of the vehicle steering wheel when an extraneous light intensity and amount of light strikes (11) the selenium cell as an oncoming light or rearward-direction light (20). The electronic system can be adjusted to pure warning signals which are detectable by yellow/red light intervals on the electronic system, it is also possible to warn the driver by acoustic means. The lighting is automatically switched off in a timed fashion or when the vehicle light is no longer required, e.g. when travelling through a tunnel. When travelling in twilight, darkness, in a tunnel or under street lights this invention is of great significance. When the ignition key is withdrawn, the lights of the vehicle go out automatically so as not to discharge the battery. <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Vorrichtung für Fahrzeuge aller Art, die bei einer bestimmten Lichtintensität, über eine Selenzelle und Elektronik, die Beleuchtung der Fahrzeuge, automatisch an oder abstellt. Ein sogenanntes Lichtgedächtnis.The invention relates to a device for vehicles of all kinds, that at a certain light intensity, via a selenium cell and electronics, the lighting of the vehicles, automatically on or turns off. A so-called light memory.

Durch bekannte Unfälle ist erwiesen, daß die Einschaltung der Fahr­ zeug-Lichtquelle zu spät erfolgte oder vergessen wurde. Insbesondere bei Tunnel durchfahrten und bei Nacht im Stadtverkehr.Known accidents have shown that the activation of the driving Stuff light source was too late or was forgotten. In particular when driving through tunnels and at night in city traffic.

Die tatsächlich benötigte Lichtstärke beim Autofahren wird zu 40% nicht erkannt. Die Maßstäbe und das richtige Gefühl hin­ sichtlich der Hell- und Dunkelgrenze ist bei den Fahrzeuglenkern sehr unterschiedlich. Bei Brillenträgern wurde festgestellt, daß der Lichtstärkeneinfall zur Brille sehr große Objekterkennungs-Merk­ male vorhanden sind.The actually required light intensity when driving a car 40% not recognized. The standards and the right feeling the light and dark limit is evident for the vehicle drivers very different. With glasses wearers it was found that the Incidence of light intensity to the glasses very large object recognition note times are present.

Es fahren viele Fahrzeuglenker ohne Licht im Stadtverkehr. Die Erkennung einer Gefahr bemerken sie sehr spät. Die Erfindung schaltet automatisch beim Zündschloßbetätigen das Licht ein. Ein optisches Lichtzeichen am Armaturenbrett oder ein akustisches Signal gibt dem Fahrer davon Kenntnis, der dann seine normale Beleuchtung anstellen kann. Die eingeschaltete Straßenbeleuchtung gibt dem Fahrer optisch eine bestimmte Lichtmenge, die aber selten genügt, dunkle Hindernisse frühzeitig zu erkennen. Dieses gilt auch für Straßenbeleuchtungen, die auf einmal aufhören, auch hier ist ein abgestelltes Fahrzeug ein Objekt von großer Gefahr.Many drivers drive without lights in city traffic. The They recognize a danger very late. The invention switches the light on automatically when the ignition is operated. An optical light signal on the dashboard or an acoustic one Signal notifies the driver of this, who then uses his normal Lighting can turn on. The street lighting switched on optically gives the driver a certain amount of light, but that it is seldom sufficient to recognize dark obstacles at an early stage. This also applies to street lights that stop at once, too here a parked vehicle is an object of great danger.

Besonders bei Tunnelfahrten vergessen viele Fahrer das Licht einzuschalten, dieses ist besonders von großer Unfallgefahr bei Tunnelmischbeleuchtungen. Nacheinanderfolgende Tunnel wie in südlichen Ländern, sind bekannt für Auffahrunfälle. Hier ist das automatische Lichtgedächtnis von größter Wichtigkeit zur eigenen Sicherheit. Many drivers forget the light, especially when driving in tunnels switch on, this is particularly of great risk of accidents Tunnel mixed lighting. Successive tunnels as in southern countries are known for rear-end collisions. Here is the automatic light memory of the utmost importance to own security.  

Diese Aufgabe der Erfindung wird durch die im Anspruch 1 angegebene Belichtungssteuerung sicherheitstechnisch gelöst. Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung (Selen-Elektronisches-Lichtgedächtnis) ist sehr leicht machbar und preisgünstig herzustellen. Es kann vorteilhaft in der Gesamtarmatur im Fahrzeug eingebracht werden. Die hohe Sicherheit, die die Erfindung beinhaltet, ist für den Fahrer enorm.This object of the invention is achieved by the in claim 1 The specified exposure control is solved for safety reasons. The device according to the invention (selenium electronic light memory) is very easy to do and inexpensive to manufacture. It can be advantageously introduced into the overall fitting in the vehicle. The high level of security that the invention contains is for the Driver enormous.

Die Vorrichtung kann wahlweise in verschiedenen Variationen an den Fahrzeugen angebracht oder verwendet werden.The device can be optionally in different variations attached or used on the vehicles.

  • A. An der Außenseite der Karosserie über Kabel oder funktech­ nisch zum Innenraum des Fahrzeuges.A. On the outside of the body via cable or radio niche to the interior of the vehicle.
  • B. Als transportiables Gerät im Innenraum mit Kabelanschluß oder über Batteriespeisung.B. As a portable device in the interior with a cable connection or via battery supply.

Die Lichtmenge zur Einschaltung der Vorrichtung wird ebenfalls durch ein Fahrzeug von vorne und hinten erfolgen.The amount of light to turn on the device is also done by a vehicle from the front and rear.
