Abstract
Description
La présente invention est relative à un dispositif pour la prévention de collisions sur un véhicule dont une portière est ouverte ou est sur le point de l'être. The present invention relates to a device for preventing collisions on a vehicle of which a door is open or is about to be.
Les ouvertures de portières sont une source importante d'accidents, notamment avec des deux-roues. Door openings are a major source of accidents, especially with two-wheelers.
Pour tenter de prévenir les accidents qui peuvent survenir lors de l'ouverture d'une portière, il est déjà connu d'équiper les faces arrières des portières des véhicules de plaquettes réfléchissant la lumière ou de lampes, afin de signaler, notamment de nuit, à un mobile arrivant sur un véhicule par l'arrière de celui-ci, l'état au moins partiellement ouvert d'une portière dudit véhicule. In an attempt to prevent accidents which may occur during the opening of a door, it is already known to equip the rear faces of the doors of vehicles with light-reflecting plates or lamps, in order to signal, in particular at night, to a mobile arriving on a vehicle from the rear thereof, the at least partially open state of a door of said vehicle.
Ces dispositifs ne sont toutefois pas pleinement satisfaisants. These devices are not, however, fully satisfactory.
Ils ne fournissent une information que lorsque l'ouverture de la portière est déjà engagée. They only provide information when the door has already been opened.
En outre, l'information qu'ils donnent n'est accessible qu'aux mobiles venant de l'arrière et n'est pas exploitable à bord du véhicule qui est équipé d'un tel dispositif. In addition, the information they give is only accessible to mobiles coming from the rear and cannot be used on board the vehicle which is equipped with such a device.
Un but de l'invention est de proposer un dispositif qui permette une prévention de collision plus efficace que les dispositifs précités connus antérieurement. An object of the invention is to propose a device which allows more effective collision prevention than the aforementioned devices known previously.
La solution selon l'invention est un dispositif pour la prévention de collision sur un véhicule dont une portière est ouverte ou est sur le point de l'être, caractérisé en ce qu'il comporte - un capteur qui est apte à détecter un début d'actionnement d'une poignée intérieure d'une portière du véhicule ou à détecter un mouvement qu'une personne à l'intérieur du véhicule fait en vue d'un tel actionnement et - des moyens pour émettre un signal d'avertissement destiné à prévenir des automobilistes, conducteurs de deux-roues ou piétons se trouvant à proximité du véhicule de l'ouverture d'une portière lorsqu'un tel début d'actionnement est détecté par ledit capteur. L'invention est avantageusement complétée par les différentes caractéristiques suivantes, prises seules ou selon toutes leurs combinaisons possibles - les moyens d'émission émettent un signal d'avertissement sonore ; - les moyens d'émission émettent un signal d'avertissement visuel ; - un capteur est un contacteur ; - un capteur est un capteur capacitif ; - le contacteur est intégré dans la portière au module électronique associé à la poignée ; D'autres caractéristiques et avantages de l'invention ressortiront encore de la description qui suit. Cette description est purement illustrative et non limitative. Elle doit être lue en regard de la figure unique annexée qui est une représentation schématique d'un véhicule équipé d'un système de prévention de collision conforme à un mode de réalisation possible de l'invention. The solution according to the invention is a device for preventing collision on a vehicle whose door is open or about to be opened, characterized in that it comprises - a sensor which is capable of detecting the start of a actuation of an interior handle of a vehicle door or of detecting a movement that a person inside the vehicle makes with a view to such actuation and - means for emitting a warning signal intended to prevent motorists, two-wheelers or pedestrians who are close to the vehicle when a door is opened when such a start of actuation is detected by said sensor. The invention is advantageously supplemented by the following different characteristics, taken alone or in all their possible combinations - the transmission means emit an audible warning signal; - the transmission means emit a visual warning signal; - a sensor is a contactor; - a sensor is a capacitive sensor; - the contactor is integrated in the door with the electronic module associated with the handle; Other characteristics and advantages of the invention will emerge from the description which follows. This description is purely illustrative and not limiting. It should be read with reference to the single appended figure which is a schematic representation of a vehicle equipped with a collision prevention system in accordance with a possible embodiment of the invention.
Le véhicule V représenté sur la figure 1 comporte au niveau des poignées intérieures de ses portières P des capteurs, référencés par 1, pour la détection du début d'un actionnement d'une telle poignée ou un mouvement qu'une personne à l'intérieur du véhicule fait en vue d'un tel actionnement. The vehicle V shown in FIG. 1 has at the interior handles of its doors P sensors, referenced by 1, for detecting the start of actuation of such a handle or a movement that a person inside of the vehicle made for such actuation.
II comporte également des moyens 2 qui sont commandés par un signal généré par un tel capteur 1 et qui, lorsque ledit capteur 1 détecte un événement du type précité, émettent un signal sonore ou visuel qui est destiné à avertir les automobilistes ou conducteurs de deux-roues, voir même les piétons, de l'imminence de l'ouverture d'une portière. It also includes means 2 which are controlled by a signal generated by such a sensor 1 and which, when said sensor 1 detects an event of the aforementioned type, emit an audible or visual signal which is intended to warn motorists or drivers of two- wheels, see even pedestrians, the imminent opening of a door.
Un signal sonore peut par exemple être un signal répétitif émis par l'avertisseur sonore du véhicule. An audible signal may, for example, be a repetitive signal emitted by the vehicle audible warning.
En variante, il peut être émis par un dispositif d'avertissement sonore distinct de l'avertisseur du véhicule, par exemple par un dispositif d'avertissement du type de ceux qui sont utilisés sur des engins lourds, notamment dans le domaine des travaux publics, pour signaler une manoeuvre. En variante encore, il peut être prévu que le véhicule intègre, par exemple au niveau de ses portières, un ou plusieurs haut-parleurs par lesquels est émis un signal de synthèse vocal tel que "ATTENTION OUVERTURE DE PORTIERES". As a variant, it can be emitted by an audible warning device distinct from the vehicle horn, for example by a warning device of the type used on heavy vehicles, in particular in the field of public works, to signal a maneuver. In another variant, it can be provided that the vehicle integrates, for example at the level of its doors, one or more loudspeakers through which a speech synthesis signal is emitted such as "ATTENTION OPENING OF DOORS".
Le message vocal ainsi émis peut être particularisé pour chaque portière. The voice message thus emitted can be personalized for each door.
Par exemple, dans le cas où c'est la poignée intérieure de la portière avant droite du véhicule qui est actionnée, le message émis peut être "ATTENTION - OUVERTURE DE LA PORTIERE AVANT DROITE". For example, if the interior handle of the right front door of the vehicle is activated, the message sent may be "CAUTION - OPENING THE FRONT RIGHT DOOR".
Un signal visuel est par exemple un clignotement selon une séquence particulière des feux de détresse ou de certains feux de signalisation du véhicule. A visual signal is for example a flashing according to a particular sequence of the hazard warning lights or certain vehicle signaling lights.
En variante, il peut être prévu des lampes intégrées aux portières du véhicule et disposées sur celle-ci de façon à ce qu'un automobiliste, un conducteur de deux-roues ou un piéton dépassant le véhicule ou s'apprêtant à le faire puisse aisément voir ces lampes si elles s'allumaient. Alternatively, there may be provided lamps integrated into the vehicle doors and arranged thereon so that a motorist, a two-wheeler or a pedestrian passing the vehicle or about to do so can easily see these lamps if they light up.
Lorsqu'une poignée intérieure de portière est actionnée, seule la lampe située sur cette portière est allumée, les autres lampes étant éteintes si les poignées intérieures de leurs portières ne sont pas sollicitées. When an interior door handle is actuated, only the lamp located on this door is on, the other lamps being extinguished if the interior handles of their doors are not used.
La lampe d'une portière dont la poignée intérieure est actionnée est alors allumée en continue ou selon une séquence intermittente particulière. Pour détecter un début d'actionnement de poignée intérieure de portière, les capteurs 1 sont par exemple constitués au niveau de chacune des poignées par un contacteur intégré dans la portière au module électronique associé à ladite poignée. The door lamp whose interior handle is actuated is then lit continuously or in a particular intermittent sequence. To detect the start of actuation of an interior door handle, the sensors 1 are for example formed at each of the handles by a contactor integrated in the door with the electronic module associated with said handle.
Ce module électronique est avantageusement également celui associé à la serrure de la portière. This electronic module is advantageously also that associated with the door lock.
En variante, pour détecter un mouvement qu'une personne ferait à l'intérieur du véhicule en vue d'actionner une poignée intérieure, les capteurs 1 peuvent être constitués par des moyens permettant de détecter la présence ou l'approche d'une main sur ou vers une poignée intérieure.Alternatively, to detect a movement that a person would make inside the vehicle in order to actuate an interior handle, the sensors 1 may be constituted by means making it possible to detect the presence or the approach of a hand on or to an interior handle.
Des capteurs en ce sens ont par exemple été décrits dans la demande de brevet français déposées par la demanderesse sous le numéro 98-14005. Sensors in this sense have for example been described in the French patent application filed by the applicant under the number 98-14005.
On notera que les solutions dans lesquelles des moyens d'alerte (haut-parleurs, lampes externes, etc-) sont intégrés aux portières du véhicule sont préférées dans la mesure où elles permettent d'optimiser le temps de réponse du système. It will be noted that the solutions in which alert means (speakers, external lamps, etc.) are integrated into the vehicle doors are preferred insofar as they make it possible to optimize the response time of the system.
