WARNEINRICHTUNG GEGEN AUFFAHRUNFÄLLE BEI SCHLECHTER SICHTWARNING DEVICE AGAINST REAR-END COLLISION IN POOR VISIBILITY
Trotz rechtzeitiger Wettervorhersagen über Rundfunk und Fernsehen und trotz wiederholter Warnungen durch den Verkehrsfunk kommt es immer wieder zu schweren Serienunfällen infolge schlechter Sichtverhältnisse. Plötzlich auftretende "Nebelwände" werden vielen Kraftfahrern bei "nicht angepaßter Geschwindigkeit" zum Verhängnis. Besonders enttäuschend ist, daß immer wieder die nachfolgenden Verkehrsteilnehmer in die bereits stehenden Unfallfahrzeuge hineinfahren und dadurch zusätzlich Menschen verletzen oder gar töten.Despite timely weather forecasts on radio and television and despite repeated warnings on traffic radio, serious accidents continue to occur as a result of poor visibility. Suddenly appearing "walls of fog" are fatal for many drivers who "do not adjust their speed". It is particularly disappointing that following road users repeatedly drive into the already stationary vehicles involved in the accident, thereby injuring or even killing additional people.
Gegen solche scheinbar unvermeidliche "Serien-Auffahrunfälle" soll der folgende technische Verbesserungsvorschlag Abhilfe bringen.The following technical improvement proposal is intended to remedy such seemingly unavoidable "serial rear-end collisions".
GrundprinzipBasic principle
SCHLECHTE SICHTVERHÄLTNISSE WERDEN DURCH UNVERÄNDERT GUTE HÖRVERHÄLTNISSE KOMPENSIERTPOOR VISIBILITY ARE COMPENSATED BY REMAININGLY GOOD HEARING CONDITIONS
Die heute bereits in allen Kraftfahrzeugen installierte "Warnblinkanlage" behält ihre Funktion. Bei normalen Sichtverhältnissen ist sie meist eine vorzügliche Sicherheitseinrichtung, außer bei überraschend auftretenden Hindernissen nach nicht einsehbaren Kurven.The hazard warning lights that are already installed in all vehicles today will retain their function. In normal visibility conditions, they are usually an excellent safety feature, except when unexpected obstacles appear after blind corners.
2. ERWEITERTE "BLINKLICHT + SIGNALHORN-WARNANLAGE" 2. EXTENDED "FLASHING LIGHT + HORN WARNING SYSTEM"
2.1. "Blinklicht+Signalhorn-Warnanlage" 2.1. "Flashing light+horn warning system"
wird vom unverletzten Fahrer aktiviert bzw. inaktiviertis activated or deactivated by the uninjured driver
Im Gefahrenmoment, z.B. bei Stau oder einem Verkehrsunfall, schaltet der Fahrer nach seiner persönlichen Entscheidung die Warnanlage "Blinklicht+Signalhorn" aktiv ein. Nach Entwarnung schaltet der unverletzte Fahrer die Anlage selbst wieder aus.In a dangerous situation, e.g. in a traffic jam or a traffic accident, the driver switches on the "flashing light + horn" warning system according to his or her own decision. Once the all-clear has been given, the uninjured driver switches the system off again himself or herself.
Auch bei guter Sicht könnte dadurch die Gefahr eines Auffahrunfalles deutlich verringert werden.Even when visibility is good, the risk of a rear-end collision could be significantly reduced.
- bei defekten Fahrzeugen oder anderen Hindernissen in nicht einsehbaren Kurven- in the case of defective vehicles or other obstacles in blind bends
- während das Warndreieck wirkungsvoll postiert wird, erfolgt bereits eine zusätzliche akustische Warnung- while the warning triangle is being effectively positioned, an additional acoustic warning is already given
2.2. HBlinklicht+Signalhorn-Warnanlage" 2.2. H Flashing light+horn warning system"
wird bei starker Fahrzeugverzögerung automatisch aktiviertis automatically activated when the vehicle decelerates sharply
Wird das Kraftfahrzeug stark verzögert, z.B. durch eine Vollbremsung oder einen Auffahrunfall, so wird ohne aktive Beteiligung des vielleicht verletzten oder bewußtlosen Fahrers die Warnanlage "Blinklicht+ Signalhorn" automatisch aktiviert. Diese Kombination schützt bei schlechten Sichtverhältnissen weitreichender vor weiteren Auffahrunfällen.If the vehicle is decelerated sharply, e.g. due to emergency braking or a rear-end collision, the "flashing lights + horn" warning system is automatically activated without the active involvement of the driver, who may be injured or unconscious. This combination provides more extensive protection against further rear-end collisions in poor visibility conditions.
Bleibt der Fahrer unverletzt und somit entscheidungsfähig, so kann er die doppelte Warnung abschalten. Ist dies aber leider nicht der Fall, so bleibt die Anlage wirksam, bis sie nach Beseitigung der Gefahr von einem Helfer abgeschaltet wird.If the driver is uninjured and is therefore able to make decisions, he can switch off the double warning. Unfortunately, if this is not the case, the system remains effective until it is switched off by a helper after the danger has been eliminated.
Die "Blinklicht+Signalhorn-Anlage" wird handgeschaltet bereits in Notarzt- und Rettungswagen verwendet. Sie muß aber zur Vermeidung der schrecklichen "Nebel-Serienunfälle" durch einen neuen Verzögerungsschalter automatisch aktiviert werden .The "flashing light + horn system" is already used manually in emergency medical vehicles and ambulances. However, in order to avoid the terrible "serial fog accidents", it must be activated automatically by a new delay switch.
Bei der Konstruktion muß unbedingt darauf geachtet werden, daß mit der neuen Funktionseinheit auch bereits im Verkehr befindliche Kraftfahrzeuge nachgerüstet werden können.During the design process, it is essential to ensure that the new functional unit can also be retrofitted to vehicles already in use.
Leider wird die neue Warnanlage "Blinklicht+Signalhorn" nicht gerade zur Lärmverringerung beitragen, sie kann aber sofort abgeschaltet werden, wenn die Gefahr vorbei ist. Bleibt aber die Verkehrssituation für beteiligte und für nachfolgende Verkehrsteilnehmer gefährlich, so rangiert Schutz des menschlichen Lebens vor Lärmvermeidung.Unfortunately, the new warning system "flashing light + horn" will not exactly help reduce noise, but it can be switched off immediately once the danger has passed. However, if the traffic situation remains dangerous for those involved and for those following behind, protecting human life takes priority over noise prevention.
