Abstract

The application relates to a roof-mounted indicator device which is provided with visual and acoustic warning and indicator means for prioritised emergency services vehicles of the police, fire services and the like, which roof-mounted indicator device has rotating beacons at the sides and front and rear lettering panels, equipped with LEDs, for information, and is provided with venting and/or ventilation means. In order to prevent water entering the interior of the roof-mounted indicator device, according to the invention open riser pipes are provided on both sides for venting and/or ventilating purposes.

Description

Die Anmeldung bezieht sich auf einen mit optischen und akustischen Warn- bzw. Hinweiseinrichtungen versehenen Dachbalken für bevorrechtigte Einsatzfahrzeuge von Poli­ zei, Feuerwehr und dgl., der seitliche Rundumkennleuchten und vordere und hintere, mit Leuchtdioden bestückte Schriftfelder für Hinweise aufweist, und der mit einer Be- und/oder Entlüftung versehen ist.The registration refers to one with optical and acoustic warning or information devices Roof beams for privileged emergency vehicles from Poli zei, fire brigade and the like, the side rotating beacons and front and rear, equipped with LEDs Has text fields for notes, and with a and / or ventilation is provided.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung lag die Aufgabe zugrunde, einen gattungsgemäßen Dachbalken so weiterzubilden, daß ein Wassereintritt durch die Be- bzw. Entlüftungsöffnungen sicher ausgeschlossen wird.The present invention was based on the object Generic roof beams so that a Water ingress through the ventilation openings is definitely excluded.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß zur Be- und/oder Entlüftung beidseitig offene Steigrohre vor­ gesehen sind. This object is achieved in that Ventilation and / or ventilation on both sides of riser pipes open are seen.  

Der Gegenstand der Erfindung soll im folgenden anhand ei­ nes in der Zeichnung dargestellten Ausführungsbeispiels näher erläutert werden.The object of the invention will be based on egg Nes embodiment shown in the drawing are explained in more detail.

In der Zeichnung zeigen:The drawing shows:

Fig. 1 eine Vorderansicht eines Dachbalkens, Fig. 1 is a front view of a roof beam,

Fig. 2 eine Draufsicht auf den Dachbalken nach Fig. 1, Fig. 2 is a plan view of the roof beam according to Fig. 1,

Fig. 3 in einem Schnitt nach der Linie III-III in Fig. 1 eine Ansicht einer Schottwand, Fig. 3 in a section along the line III-III in Fig. 1 is a view of a bulkhead wall,

Fig. 4 einen Schnitt nach der Linie IV-IV in Fig. 3, Fig. 4 shows a section along the line IV-IV in Fig. 3,

Fig. 5 einen Querschnitt durch den Dachbalken, und Fig. 5 shows a cross section through the roof beam, and

Fig. 6 eine Ansicht einer seitlichen Rundumkenn­ leuchte. Fig. 6 is a view of a lateral Rundumkenn light.

Der in den Fig. 1 und 2 der Zeichnung dargestellte Dachbalken 1 setzt sich zusammen aus einem Unterteil 2, seitlichen Abdeckungen 3 für Rundumkennleuchten 4 und ei­ nem durch Schnellverschlüsse 5 gehaltenen, leicht abnehm­ baren Oberteil 6. In einem mittleren Bereich in seinem Unterteil 2 weist der Dachbalken 1 vorn und hinten jeweils ein Schriftfeld 7 auf, in das über innerhalb des Dachbalkens 1 angeordnete Leuchtdioden Schriftzüge 8, wie z.B. STOP, eingeblendet werden können. Die Schriftfelder 7 sind über eingeklebte (Kleber 21), mittragende Scheiben 9 abgedeckt und zwischen Leuchtdioden und Scheiben 9 ist jeweils ein nicht dargestelltes Polarisationsfilter ange­ ordnet.The roof beam 1 shown in FIGS. 1 and 2 of the drawing is composed of a lower part 2 , side covers 3 for rotating beacons 4 and egg nem held by quick-release fasteners 5 , easily removable upper part 6 . In a central area in its lower part 2 , the roof bar 1 has a writing field 7 at the front and rear, into which lettering 8 , such as STOP, can be faded in by means of light-emitting diodes arranged inside the roof bar 1 . The title blocks 7 are covered by glued (adhesive 21 ), supporting disks 9 and between light emitting diodes and disks 9 , a polarization filter, not shown, is arranged.

Seitlich an das vordere Schriftfeld 7 schließen sich Ab­ deckgitter 10 für dahinter angeordnete Lautsprecher 11 an, wobei die Trichter 12 und/oder die Abdeckgitter 10 zur Verhinderung unerwünschter Vereisung beheizbar sein kön­ nen.From the side of the front lettering field 7 , there are cover grids 10 for speakers 11 arranged behind, the funnels 12 and / or the cover grids 10 being able to be heated to prevent undesired icing.

Wie aus Fig. 2 der Zeichnung weiter ersichtlich, ist ein weiterer, der Schallabstrahlung nach hinten dienender Lautsprecher 13 vorgesehen, der aus Platzgründen einen zum Trichter 14 versetzten Schallkanal 15 aufweist.As can further be seen from FIG. 2 of the drawing, a further loudspeaker 13 is provided which serves to radiate sound backwards and which has a sound channel 15 offset from the funnel 14 for reasons of space.

Zur Bildung einzelner Kammern innerhalb des Dachbalkens 1 und zu dessen Aussteifung sind Schottwände 16, 17 vorge­ sehen, die jeweils mindestens eine Sicke 18, 19 aufweisen, durch die sichergestellt werden soll, daß im Falle eines Fahrzeugüberschlags ein einwandfreies Verformen des Dach­ balkens 1 möglich ist, so daß die Fahrzeuginsassen durch diesen nicht zusätzlich gefährdet werden. Anstelle der Sicken 18, 19 könnte auch eine Lochung 20 vorgesehen wer­ den, die dann gleichzeitig einen Luftübertritt innerhalb der einzelnen Kammern ermöglichen würde. Schließlich wäre es auch denkbar, die Schottwände in nicht dargestellter Weise mit Sollbruchstellen zu versehen.For the formation of individual chambers within the roof beam 1 and for its stiffening bulkheads 16 , 17 are provided, each having at least one bead 18 , 19 , through which it is to be ensured that in the event of a vehicle rollover, a perfect deformation of the roof beam 1 is possible , so that the vehicle occupants are not additionally endangered by it. Instead of the beads 18 , 19 , a perforation 20 could also be provided for who would then simultaneously allow air to pass within the individual chambers. Finally, it would also be conceivable to provide the partition walls with predetermined breaking points in a manner not shown.

Wie in Fig. 5 der Zeichnung dargestellt, sind zur Be- und Entlüftung des Dachbalkens 1 Steigrohre 22, 23 vorgesehen, um einen Eintritt von Wasser in das Innere des Dachbalkens 1 mit Sicherheit auszuschließen. Der Pfeil "F" in Fig. 5 deutet die Fahrtrichtung bei Vorwärtsfahrt des Fahrzeugs an. Das dann in einem Überdruckgebiet liegende Steigrohr 22 dient also der Belüftung, während das Steigrohr 23 die Entlüftung besorgt.As shown in FIG. 5 of the drawing, riser pipes 22 , 23 are provided for ventilation of the roof beam 1 , in order to reliably prevent water from entering the interior of the roof beam 1 . The arrow "F" in Fig. 5 indicates the direction of travel when the vehicle is moving forward. The riser pipe 22 , which is then located in an overpressure area, thus serves for ventilation, while the riser pipe 23 provides the ventilation.

Da der erfindungsgemäße Dachbalken auf verschiedenen Fahrzeugtypen universell eingesetzt werden soll, kann es vorkommen, daß z.B. bei einer bestimmten Windschutzschei­ benneigung eine Blendung der Fahrzeuginsassen durch die eingeschalteten Rundumkennleuchten eintritt. Dieser Blen­ dung kann durch eine in durch Versuche festzustellender Höhe angebrachte lichtundurchlässige Abdeckung 24 abge­ holfen werden. In Fig. 6 der Zeichnung ist hierzu der mögliche Strahlengang 25 nach unten ohne Abdeckung in strichpunktierten Linien dargestellt, während in ausgezo­ genen Linien der Strahlengang 26 mit Abdeckung 24 ange­ deutet ist.Since the roof beam according to the invention is to be used universally on different types of vehicles, it can happen that, for example, at a certain windshield inclination, vehicle occupants are dazzled by the switched-on rotating beacons. This Blend can be abge helped by an opaque cover 24 attached in experiments to determine the height. In Fig. 6 of the drawing, the possible beam path 25 is shown down without cover in dash-dotted lines, while in drawn lines the beam path 26 with cover 24 is indicated.

Für spezielle Anwendungszwecke kann es auch vorteilhaft sein, anstelle des hinteren Lautsprechers eine Warnleuchte vorzusehen.It can also be advantageous for special applications be a warning light instead of the rear speaker to provide.
