Abstract

Road signalling system which, by means of emitters of infrared rays placed along the road and the receiver with which the vehicle is equipped, triggers audio-visual signals inside the vehicle. The receiver, linked to a transmitter of infrared rays, automatically transmits to the vehicle according to the road information received, as well as that inserted by the driver of this vehicle. The system also allows automatic reduction of the speed of the vehicle according to the road indications. This system is designed to allow the driver of the vehicle to receive the road information in advance, in no matter what visibility conditions, and to be able thus to react before being involved in a possible traffic accident.

Description

La présente invention concerne un système de signalisation routière qui, par l'.intermediaire des émetteurs de rayons infrarouges modulés emplacés le long de la route et le récepteur dont le véhicule est muni, declanche des sioux audio-visuels 2 l'interieur du véhicule. Le récepteur, relie a un émetteur de rayons infrarouges modulés, transmet automatiquement au véhicule suivant les informations routières réceptionnées , ainsi que celles introduites par le conducteur de ce véhicule. J,e systèm permet aussi la diminution automatique de la vitesse du véhicule selon les indications routières. The present invention relates to a road signaling system which, by means of modulated infrared ray emitters located along the road and the receiver with which the vehicle is fitted, triggers audio-visual sioux 2 inside the vehicle. The receiver, linked to a modulated infrared ray emitter, automatically transmits to the vehicle according to the received traffic information, as well as that entered by the driver of this vehicle. J, e system also allows the automatic reduction of the vehicle speed according to the road directions.

A présent, la signalisation routière est exclusivement visuelle à l'extérieur du véhicule et comporte deux d'inconvénients
- le signal visuel peut être empêche d'a tc---r au conducteur du véhicule
- le conducteur du véhicule peut être empêche d'enregistrer le signal visuel
Le systéme selon l'invention permet
- de remédier ces inconvénients, parce que les informations routières arrivent à l'interieur du véhicule - de doubler les chances que cette inf formation @@@ réceptionnée, parce qu'elle s'adresse à deux sens en même @@ps:: visuel et auditif
- d'avertir le conducteur du véhicule sur certaine situations avant que celles-là deviennent viL-I%-e pour
- de diminuer automatiquement la vitesse du véhicule a où le conducteur ne réagit pas dans vn te.ips déte
Le systéme selon l'invention a été conçu pour préve@ éviter les accidents routiers
Le système selon l'invention est constitué de ;
Une partie fixe destinée à la signalisation r À constituée par des émetteurs de rayons infrarouges @o@ulés : codifies pour chaque type d'information à trans@ettre. Il@s s emplacés le long de la route dans des entr-::its spécialement étudiés, et s'adressant au flux routier.At present, road signs are exclusively visual outside the vehicle and have two drawbacks
- the visual signal can be prevented from reaching the driver of the vehicle
- the driver of the vehicle may be prevented from recording the visual signal
The system according to the invention allows
- to remedy these drawbacks, because the traffic information arrives inside the vehicle - to double the chances that this inf formation @@@ received, because it is addressed to two directions at the same @@ ps :: visual and hearing
- to warn the driver of the vehicle about certain situations before these become life threatening
- automatically decrease the speed of the vehicle a where the driver does not react in vn te.ips dete
The system according to the invention has been designed to prevent road accidents
The system according to the invention consists of;
A fixed part intended for signaling r A constituted by emitters of infrared rays @ o @ ulés: codified for each type of information to be transmitted. They are located along the road in specially studied entrances and are intended for road traffic.

Une partie mobile, au bord du véhicule, qui comporte
- un récepteur/décodeur de rayons infrarouges
- un système de conversion du signal réceptionnée en signal
audio-visuel et qui s'adresse au conducteur du véhicule ;
- un émetteur de rayons infrarouges modulés relié au récepteur et qui transmet automatiquement au véhicule suivant les informations routières réceptionnées , ainsi que celles introduites par le conducteur de ce véhicule.A mobile part, on the edge of the vehicle, which includes
- an infrared ray receiver / decoder
- a system for converting the signal received into a signal
audio-visual and aimed at the driver of the vehicle;
- a modulated infrared ray emitter connected to the receiver and which automatically transmits to the vehicle according to the received traffic information, as well as that entered by the driver of this vehicle.

- un système logique oui commande la diminution de la vitesse du véhicule. - a logic system yes controls the decrease in vehicle speed.

Le système selon l'invention fonctione de la manière suivante:
Les informations routières transmises par les émetteurs de rayons infrarouges modulés, places le long de la route , sont réceptionnées par le récepteur du véhicule, sont décodés et convertis dans des signaux audio-visuels adressés au conducteur du véhicule.The system according to the invention operates as follows:
Traffic information transmitted by modulated infrared ray transmitters, placed along the road, is received by the vehicle receiver, is decoded and converted into audio-visual signals addressed to the driver of the vehicle.

En même temps, les mêmes informations routières sont transmis indépendemment de le réaction du conducteur , a l'émetteur du véhicule, qui le retransmet au véhicule suivant et qui, muni d'n même équipement, les retransmet au véhicule suivant, réalisant une chatne de retransmission qui permet au conducteur du dernier véhicule de cette chaîne de reçevoir avec anticipation les informations routières. At the same time, the same traffic information is transmitted independently of the reaction of the driver, to the vehicle transmitter, which retransmits it to the next vehicle and which, provided with the same equipment, retransmits it to the next vehicle, realizing a retransmission which allows the driver of the last vehicle in this chain to receive traffic information in advance.

Si le conducteur du véhicule , en répondant à un événement routier actionne la pédale de frein ou les systèmes d'avertîssemer ces informations sont introduites automatiquement dans l'emetteur du véhicule et transmises au véhicule qui le suit. la channe de retransmission fonctionne cette fois-ci pour transmettre les informations introduites par le conducteur du véhicule impliqué dans l'événement. les conducteurs des véhicules de cette channe ont ainsi la posibilité de réagir avant d'tre impliques directemen dans l'dvénement.  If the driver of the vehicle, by responding to a road event activates the brake pedal or the warning systems, this information is automatically entered into the vehicle transmitter and transmitted to the vehicle following it. the retransmission channel works this time to transmit the information entered by the driver of the vehicle involved in the event. the drivers of the vehicles in this chain thus have the possibility of reacting before being directly involved in the event.

Si ie conducteur du véhicule ne réagit pas dans un intervalle déterminé après la reception des signaux concernant la limitation de la vitesse, un systéme logique commande automatiquement la diminution du debit d'essence qui doit arriver dans les cylindres du moteur de ce véhicule
Le système selon l'invention à été conçu pour compléter les systèmes de sécurité existants concernant la route et les véhicules, afin de prévenir et d'éviter les accidents routièrs.Ce système perrnet au conducteur du véhicule de réceptionner d'avance, dans n'importe quelles conditions de visibilité, les informations routières et de pouvoir ainsi réagir avant d'être impliqué dans un éventuel événement routier. If the driver of the vehicle does not react within a determined interval after receiving the speed limit signals, a logic system automatically controls the reduction in the fuel flow rate which must arrive in the engine cylinders of this vehicle.
The system according to the invention has been designed to complement the existing safety systems relating to the road and vehicles, in order to prevent and avoid road accidents. This system allows the driver of the vehicle to receive in advance, in n regardless of visibility conditions, traffic information and being able to react before being involved in a possible road event.
