Description

BeschreibungDescription

Fahrradbremslicht als Zusatzausrüstung für alle Bowdenzugbremsen. Bicycle brake light as additional equipment for all Bowden cable brakes.

Stand der Technik
Fahrräder sind bisher nicht mit Bremslichtern ausgestattet. State of the art
Bicycles are not yet equipped with brake lights.

ProblemstellungProblem

Es galt, ein von Dynamo, Scheinwerfer und Rücklicht unabhängiges optisches Signal zu entwickeln, das ein Betätigen der Bremse auch tagsüber anzeigt.The aim was to develop an optical signal that was independent of the dynamo, headlight and taillight and that would indicate when the brake was applied even during the day.

Erfindunginvention

Das Problem wird dadurch gelöst, daß eine Zusatzleuchte mit Batterie installiert wird, die durch ein zweilitziges Kabel mit einem Kontaktgeber verbunden ist. Dieser Kontaktgeber ist Teil des Bowdenzugs jeder herkömmlichen Seilzugbremse.The problem is solved by installing an additional light with a battery that is connected to a contactor by a two-wire cable. This contactor is part of the Bowden cable of any conventional cable brake.

Vorteilhafte Wirkungen der ErfindungAdvantageous effects of the invention

1. Optisches Bremssignal unabhängig von der Fahrradbeleuchtung. 1. Optical braking signal independent of the bicycle lighting.

2. Optisches Bremssignal auch bei Tag.2. Optical braking signal even during the day.

3. Standlicht bei Betätigen der Bremse (z.B. beim Warten vor einem Bahnübergang).3. Parking lights when the brake is applied (e.g. when waiting at a railway crossing).

Weiterbildung der ErfindungFurther development of the invention

Bei Fahrrädern mit 2 Seilzugbremsen wird man eher die Hinterradbremse als Auslöser für das Bremslicht benutzen.On bicycles with 2 cable brakes, the rear brake is more likely to be used as a trigger for the brake light.

Es könnten natürlich auch beide Bremsen damit ausgerüstet werden.Of course, both brakes could also be equipped with this.

Schlußlicht und Batterie-Bremslichtkombination könnten in einem Gehäuse untergebracht werden.The tail light and battery-brake light combination could be housed in one housing.

Auch an die Verwendung wiederaufladbarer Batterien, die dann durch den Dynamo gespeist werden ist gedacht.The use of rechargeable batteries, which are then powered by the dynamo, is also being considered.

Darstellung der ErfindungDescription of the invention

Der Kontaktgeber für die Bremsleuchte befindet sich am Ende des Bowdenzüge (Fig. 1). Kontaktgeber und Batterie-Bremslichtkombination (4+5) sind durch ein zweilitziges Kabel (6) miteinander verbunden.The contactor for the brake light is located at the end of the Bowden cable (Fig. 1). The contactor and battery-brake light combination (4+5) are connected to each other by a two-wire cable (6).

In Ruhestellung (Fig. 2) berührt der auf das Drahtseil (1) aufgeschraubte Metallklotz (2) nur eine der beiden in der Hülse befindlichen Kontaktfedern (3).In the rest position (Fig. 2), the metal block (2) screwed onto the wire rope (1) only touches one of the two contact springs (3) located in the sleeve.

Bei Bremsbetätigung (Fig. 3) wird der Metallklotz nach oben gezogen, so daß beide Federn berührt werden: der Stromkreis mit Batterie (4) und Bremsleuchte (5) ist über die doppelte Leitung (6) geschlossen.When the brake is applied (Fig. 3), the metal block is pulled upwards so that both springs are touched: the circuit with battery (4) and brake light (5) is closed via the double cable (6).

Zum Nachstellen der Bremsen (Seilzugänge) befindet sich am unteren Ende des Kontaktgebers die übliche Gewindehülse (7) mit Rändelmutter.To adjust the brakes (cable access), the usual threaded sleeve (7) with knurled nut is located at the lower end of the contactor.
