Definitions

  • the invention relates to an ice warning device according to the preamble of the main claim.
  • Ice warning devices are a useful tool not only in road traffic, but also on sidewalks, house stairs or the like, in order to be informed about existing ice hazards in the event of temperature changes.
  • Such an ice warning device is described in DE-OS 29 40 205, which is equipped with a temperature sensor which works on the basis of liquid crystals or temperature-indicating color pigments.
  • a temperature sensor which works on the basis of liquid crystals or temperature-indicating color pigments.
  • Such a device is intended to make the device independent of third-party installations, such as power supply lines or the like.
  • the known device thus does not differ from conventional temperature indicators that work with mercury or ALCOHOL, and just like these devices, it is extremely difficult to make the values determined by the temperature sensor visible, particularly in fast road traffic.
  • the invention has for its object to provide an ice warning device that is also independent of third-party installations, but creates an effective display such that even in fast road traffic or for visually impaired older people, the risk of ice is immediately recognizable.
  • the invention solves this underlying problem with the features of the characterizing part of the main claim.
  • the invention makes use of the solar cells which are known per se and are already being used to a large extent today and which, accommodated in corresponding devices, are independent of third-party installations, such as power supply lines, etc.
  • the invention works with a temperature sensor which is live depending on the desired heat value to be displayed, for example + 2 to -2 ° C.
  • the power line of the solar cell connects to this temperature sensor, so that the temperature sensor blocks the current flow at values above + 2 ° C.
  • this temperature sensor becomes current-conducting and now transmits the current supplied by the solar cell to a capacitor that can discharge in pulses.
  • a display part is connected to the capacitor, which converts the current pulses supplied by the capacitor, for example, into flashes of light.
  • the size, sequence of flashes and flash intensity can vary depending on the size of the SoLarzeLLe and the Capacitor and the display part can be chosen arbitrarily.
  • the display part can also be designed as an LCD component or mechanically, e.g. work through an aperture adjustment.
  • An accumulator can also be switched on in the device.
  • the drawing shows the structure of the device according to the invention purely schematically.
  • the temperature sensor 1 denotes a temperature sensor, which, for example, enables the largest possible and thus sensitive scanning of the temperature prevailing in the area of the street surface or the surface of the stairs via a relatively large contact plate 2 or contact trough.
  • the temperature sensor 1 is arranged at the lower end of a post 3, which can be designed, for example, as a street post.
  • a post 3 can be designed, for example, as a street post.
  • an external solar cell 4 provided, a capacitor 5 and an externally visible display part 6, which can be made even stronger with appropriate prisms with regard to its display effect.
  • the solar cell 4 is connected to the temperature sensor 1 via a power line 7.
  • a current line 8 leads from the temperature sensor 1 to the capacitor 5 and from this a current line 9 leads to the display part 6.
  • the temperature sensor is designed such that it only delivers the electrical energy supplied by the solar cell 4 to the line 8 when the desired temperature range to be sensed has been reached. It should be expressly pointed out that this temperature range can of course not only lie in the frost range, but that the device according to the invention can also control other temperature ranges, so that this device is also suitable, for example, as a safety device for overheating.
  • a line 9 leads from the capacitor 5 to the display part 6 and the voltages generated by the excitation via the solar cell 4 in the capacitor 5 are now resolved in the display part into visible flashes of light which can be of a pulsed and thus relatively strong design.
  • the device according to the invention thus works when the light falls on the solar cell 4, it being found that the incident light from motor vehicle headlights is also sufficient to generate corresponding flashes in the display part 6.
