The innovation concerns an additional warning order for Motor vehicles, comprising a housing in which a electrical control circuit and a plurality of signal lamps arranged and, with a display device on a surface of the housing is provided.

In terms of road safety, a motor vehicle is Usually provided with a variety of advertisements, see 2.B. with indicator lights, with brake lights, with Taillights, with a reversing light, etc., all of these indicators being provided on the outside of the body to allow other road users to see the intentions of the Driver display. Due to damage to the external displays or due to old age evidence of the built-in lamps or due to corrosion = Such indications may fail to appear in the circuit. Another disadvantage is that these advertisements are often attached at a low height above the street and thus below the lower edge of the front windshield so that they can be used by the driver

following vehicle at a short distance only poorly true · » will be able to. Especially with eiaent instead of / in the

there are only small gaps between the individual vehicles, the driver of a vehicle following behind, for example, can perceive a braking maneuver too late, so that it

The task of the present innovation is to "kins ausätzliöbe." To create a warning arrangement for motor vehicles, with which all S essential deductions of the driver and the motor vehicle equipped with it to a subsequent part of the traffic " users can be displayed in an unmistakable, easily understandable form and awar even if one of the usual displays provided on the motor vehicle, so that traffic safety is increased.

other configurations are also possible «

The display device consists of a variety of transparent, differently colored sub-areas, behind which S the corresponding signal lamps are arranged according to FIG

are. One of the plate areas consists of an arrow 1 , which is arranged laterally in the selected example and points to the left and lights up when the signal lamp arranged behind it is activated accordingly / so that a following road user recognizes / that the driver has switched on the left turn signal. With 2 another, oppositely arranged arrow is referred to, where «

'' when activating the signal lamp arranged behind it dem

to the right has switched on * The two partial areas 1 and can be kept in yellow. With 3 two semicircular segments are designated / those e.g. made of red are made of transparent material, so that when two

Segments 3 light up red. Bounded by the two circle * segments 3 and the two arrows 1 and 2 is an approximately in the middle aagreardfteter horizontal strip 4 provided, the z * B. consists of blue transparent material and serves to with appropriate control of the 2S.

In the lower segment of the circle there is also an arrow 5 made of transparent material , which is colored red, for example. 5

The dimensions of the individual partial areas are selected so that they can also be used over greater distances from subsequent Road users can easily be perceived individually.

In Figure 2, a circuit diagram is shown schematically, wherein the individual signal lamps marked a to f with the corresponding signal lamps already present on the vehicle the same meaning are connected via the connections A to F, so that they light up synchronously with them. The individual signal lamps can be excited both continuously and intermittently.

Due to the fact that the configuration of the warning arrangement shown in FIG. 1, including the circuit shown in FIG.

O ¹ IU ¹ IODi ¹

Different warning displays are now shown schematically in FIGS. 3A to 3P. Even from greater distances it is easily possible when the corresponding sub-area lights up, the intention of the driver of the preceding motor vehicle provided with the warning device to understand without further ado. The left turn signal is switched on in FIG. 3k, as indicated by the cross-hatching of the arrow there is indicated. In FIG. 3B, the right turn signal is switched on, according to FIG Cross-hatching of the right arrow. In this case, the two arrows flash as well as the actual turn signals of the Vehicle. The horizontal stripe 4 arranged in the middle shows a blue permanent light, which is indicated by the lighting up of the in Figure 2 with d designated signal lamp is achieved. In Figure 3C, a brake signal is indicated by the fact that the both circle segments 3 light up red, while at the same time the horizontal stripe 4 lights up blue, through continuous The signal lamps a, b and f are lit according to FIG. 2 and the signal lamp d lights up intermittently.

FIG. 3D shows by lighting up the blue transverse stripe that the power lighting is switched on, by energizing the signal lamp d according to FIG. 2, asa corresponds to the effect that a reflective stripe is attached to the rear glass pane of a motor vehicle.

By intermittently lighting up the red downwards **

directed arrow 5 and simultaneous continuous lighting of the blue stripe 4 according to the corresponding control of the lamp d and the lamp f in B'igur 2 becomes a Reverse driving of the vehicle indicated, according to Figure 3E. 5

In Figure 3F an overtaking is indicated by the fact that the both arrows 1 and 2 light up intermittently and at the same time the blue stripe 4 lights up continuously.

The circle segments 3 advantageously have a diameter of about 12 cm, while the centrally arranged blue stripe 4 is about 3 cm wide and 8 cm long. the right and left adjoining the blue stripe 4 Arrows are preferably 6 cm long and extend beyond the edge of the circle segments. The arrow 5 arranged below the blue stripe has approximately the same width as the arrows 1 and 2, is but made shorter.

The individual signals emitted by the warning system according to the invention are easy to recognize and easy to understand and can also be perceived from great distances. Due to the blue stripe 4 in the middle, a clear distinction between the individual functions is guaranteed .
