Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a light signaling device of an urban or road junction.
  • a device of this type adapted to slowing vehicles at a pedestrian crossing, is described in particular in French patent application 2,577,252 published on August 14, 1986 on behalf of the Society of Engineers and Technicians.
  • intersections are equipped with "turning" lights leaving the passage free on the first arrival.
  • a traffic axis is not in such a case arbitrarily blocked while no vehicle is presented along another axis.
  • the device described above is able to effectively report the presence of a crossroads, but it is nonetheless a barrier to traffic, although illuminated, but potentially dangerous.
  • the present invention therefore aims to design a light signaling device of an urban or road junction combining both the improvement of road safety and that of the fluidity of traffic.
  • the light spots form on at least one of the peripheral areas at least one horizontal line extending at least in part over the width of at least one of the channels.
  • These luminous points also advantageously form, simultaneously or alternatively, on at least one of these peripheral zones, at least one luminous chevron indicating the direction of circulation. In the same way, they form on at least one of the peripheral zones at least one light triangle.
  • the light spots form a light grid on at least a portion of the central area.
  • these luminous points form, alternately or simultaneously, a bright checkerboard on at least a portion of this central zone.
  • the light-signaling device of an urban or road intersection benefits from the fact that the color of the light spots formed on each of the peripheral zones is identical to the color of the traffic lights of each of the corresponding channels.
  • the light spots are flashing.
  • the flashing is triggered by means of at least one sensor detecting the stopping of at least one vehicle on the intersection for a duration greater than a predetermined threshold.
  • This sensor is preferably a video camera.
  • Figure la is a schematic top view of an exemplary embodiment of the light signaling device of an urban or road intersection according to the invention, in the case of a crossing of two perpendicular traffic lanes.
  • Figure 1b is a schematic sectional view along the axis of one of these ways of the light signaling device of an urban or road junction according to the invention.
  • the Figure shows the plan of a crossroads widely spread in urban areas where many streets, avenues or boulevards, give rise to the crossing of two lanes along two perpendicular axes X'X, Y'Y.
  • the intersection of the two channels 2,3 determines a space ABCD of substantially square shape, which the vehicles must take successively to cross the intersection 1.
  • the light-signaling device comprises a central zone 4, which extends horizontally over the intersection ABCD, and peripheral zones 5, 6, 7, 8 covering the parts of the two lanes 2, 3 leading to the junction 1.
  • the edges AB, BC, CD, DA of the surface ABCD of the central zone 4 of the device coincide with one side of each of the EFBA surfaces; BGHC; DCij; LADK peripheral areas 5, 6, 7, 8, respectively.
  • the trace AD, BC of the surface ABCD of the central zone 4 of the device is a horizontal segment in the extension of the segments KL, AD and GH, BC representing the traces of the peripheral zones 8, 6; in other words, the central zone 4 of the device is substantially flat and horizontal, and the vehicles reach this central zone by means of the inclined planes constituted by the peripheral zones 5, 6, 7, 8.
  • the device according to the invention implements a known technique for integrating optical fibers into the concrete and to create light spots on its surface.
  • This device is therefore preferably at least partially made of concrete, without this characteristic being limiting.
  • the fibers emerging on the surface of the concrete form in known manner, light spots when they are powered by a light source (not shown).
  • Certain particular luminous patterns have obvious advantages in terms of signage. These include patterns of a chevron 9 oriented in the direction of the traffic, placed on the peripheral areas 5, 6, 7, 8. These rafters indicate the direction of movement on each part of the roadway, and their shape creates an optical illusion that makes it appear higher than it is in reality the central area 4 of the device, and therefore encourages users to further reduce their speed.
  • a reinforced effect is obtained with patterns of light points appearing triangles.
  • the luminous triangles appearing on the peripheral zones 5, 6, 7, 8 signal by far the intersection 1 at night.
  • the obstacle formed by the elevated central zone 4 is also, at lower cost, indicated by a single row of light points forming a glossy horizontal line on the surface of each of the peripheral zones 5, 6, 7, 8.
  • optical fibers preferably equip the central zone 4.
  • a light grid 10 is formed in particular by lines of light points perpendicular and regularly distributed.
  • a bright checkerboard provides the same advantage: sending the user a message indicating that he must not park on the central zone 4 of the junction 1.
  • the optical fiber light supply system is advantageously coupled to existing traffic lights.
  • the color of the green, orange or red chevrons 9, identical to that of the corresponding light 11 on each lane 2, 3, contributes to reinforcing the signaling of the junction for the benefit of safety.
  • the three-colored traffic lights imposing the stop are generally replaced by flashing amber lights so as not to unnecessarily block a user whereas the way is free before him.
  • the light spots of the device according to the invention are, in identical situations, flashing.
  • the blinking of the light spots in particular those of the central zone 4 representing a grid 10 or a checkerboard, has a deterrent effect by drawing attention to drivers of misplaced vehicles.
  • the stopping of one or more vehicles on the central zone 4 is detected by one or more sensors arranged inside this part of the device according to the invention, or outside.
  • one or more video cameras 12 associated with image processing means effectively perform the detection of stopping of any vehicle on the central zone 4 for a duration greater than a predetermined threshold.
  • the operator will of course interpret any prolonged stoppage of a vehicle on the central prohibited area 4 according to events and the environment, for example the unexpected passage of a pedestrian in the middle of the intersection, or a collision between two vehicles. ...
  • the extended stop detector arranged inside the intersection can trigger an audible alarm, which will alert the driver of the stopped vehicle and require him to move to leave the junction.
