Description

5 Objeto de la Invención 5 Object of the Invention

La presente invención se refiere a un señalizador de acciones de conducción para vehículos. The present invention relates to a driving action flag for vehicles.

Antecedentes de la invención Background of the invention

10 En la actualidad se conoce un senalizador de acciones de conducción en vehículos, obligatorio en todos ellos, que consiste en una o más luminarias de color rojo intenso que se encienden al accionar el pedal de freno, advirtiendo a los conductores que vienen por detrás que se está procediendo a reducir la velocidad para evitar en colisiones por alcance. 10 At present, a driving action signal in vehicles is known, mandatory in all of them, which consists of one or more bright red luminaires that light up when the brake pedal is operated, warning the drivers behind speed is being reduced to avoid collisions by scope.

El problema de estos sef'lalizadores es que ofrecen una información muy limitada, que por ejemplo puede hacer dudar al conductor que viene por detrás de las acciones que está llevando a cabo el conductor precedente en maniobras tan importantes como adelantamientos. The problem with these signals is that they offer very limited information, which, for example, may cause the driver behind the actions being carried out by the previous driver in maneuvers as important as overtaking.

Estos inconvenientes se subsanan con la utilización del señalizador de la invención. These drawbacks are remedied with the use of the indicator of the invention.

Descripción de la Invención Description of the Invention

25 El señalizador de acciones de conducción para vehículos de la invención es del tipo que comprenden unas luminarias de color dispuestas en la parte trasera del vehículo y asociadas al manejo de los pedales, y de acuerdo con la invención comprende: -una primera luminaria de un primer color asociada al pedal de freno para encenderse cuando se acciona dicho pedal de freno, The driving action indicator for vehicles of the invention is of the type comprising a color luminaires arranged in the rear part of the vehicle and associated with the handling of the pedals, and according to the invention comprises: - a first luminaire of a first color associated with the brake pedal to light when said brake pedal is operated,

30 -una segunda luminaria de un segundo color asociada simultáneamente al pedal de freno y al pedal de acelerador para encenderse cuando ambos pedales a la vez están sin ser accionados, y -una tercera luminaria de un tercer color asociada al pedal de acelerador para encenderse cuando se acciona dicho pedal de acelerador. 30 -a second luminaire of a second color associated simultaneously with the brake pedal and the accelerator pedal to light when both pedals are simultaneously not operated, and -a third luminaire of a third color associated with the accelerator pedal to light when said accelerator pedal is operated.

De esta forma, el conductor que sigue al coche precedente sabe en todo momento todas las acciones que lleva a cabo el conductor de delante, ya sea de cambios de carril mediante los intermitentes, y también de la modulación de la velocidad del coche precedente gracias al In this way, the driver who follows the previous car knows at all times all the actions carried out by the driver in front, either of lane changes through the turn signals, and also of the modulation of the speed of the preceding car thanks to the

5 señalizador de la invención, lo que le permite tomar sus decisiones con mayor seguridad. 5 signaling device of the invention, which allows you to make your decisions with greater security.

15 Descripción de la Fonna de Realización Preferida 15 Description of the Preferred Embodiment

El señalizador (1) de acciones de conducción para vehlculos (2) de la invención es del tipo que comprenden unas luminarias (3, 4, 5) de color dispuestas en la parte trasera (6) del vehiculo The driving action indicator (1) for vehicles (2) of the invention is of the type comprising colored luminaires (3, 4, 5) arranged at the rear (6) of the vehicle

(2) y asociadas al manejo de los pedales (7, 8), Y de acuerdo con la invención comprende: (2) and associated with the handling of the pedals (7, 8), and according to the invention comprises:

20 -una primera luminaria (3) de un primer color asociada al pedal de freno (7) para encenderse cuando se acciona dicho pedal de freno (7) como se ve en la primera vista de la figura 2, -una segunda luminaria (4) de un segundo color asociada simultáneamente al pedal de freno 20 -a first luminaire (3) of a first color associated with the brake pedal (7) to light when said brake pedal (7) is operated as seen in the first view of figure 2, -a second luminaire (4 ) of a second color associated simultaneously with the brake pedal

(7) y al pedal de acelerador (8) para encenderse cuando ambos pedales a la vez están sin ser accionados como se ve en la segunda vista de la figura 2, y (7) and the accelerator pedal (8) to light when both pedals at the same time are not operated as seen in the second view of Figure 2, and

25 -una tercera luminaria (5) de un tercer color asociada al pedal de acelerador (8) para encenderse de cuando se acciona dicho pedal de acelerador (8) como se ve en la tercera vista de la figura 2. 25 -a third luminaire (5) of a third color associated with the accelerator pedal (8) to light when said accelerator pedal (8) is operated as seen in the third view of Figure 2.

Para detectar el accionamiento de los pedales la invención ha previsto la disposición de unos In order to detect the actuation of the pedals, the invention has provided the arrangement of some

30 sensores (9) dispuestos en dichos pedales (7, 8) de freno y de acelerador, con el fin de detectar su posición de reposo o accionamiento. Dichos sensores (9) por ejemplo comprenden finales de carrera para cambiar de estado en la posición de reposo de los pedales (7, 8) correspondientes, ya que muchos coches ya disponen de dichos finales de carrera en estos pedales, los cuales pueden ser aprovechados para el dispositivo con el consiguiente ahorro de costes. 30 sensors (9) arranged in said brake and accelerator pedals (7, 8), in order to detect their resting or driving position. Said sensors (9) for example comprise limit switches to change state in the resting position of the corresponding pedals (7, 8), since many cars already have said limit switches on these pedals, which can be used for the device with the consequent cost savings.

Por último indicar que muy preferentemente, el primer color es color rojo, el segundo color es color ámbar, y el tercer color es color verde, debido a la asociación mental que ya existe en los 5 conductores del significado de estos colores. Finally indicate that very preferably, the first color is red, the second color is amber, and the third color is green, due to the mental association that already exists in the 5 conductors of the meaning of these colors.
