Abstract
Traffic regulation system includes a series of light responsive elements (20) spaced at intervals along the track (e.g. road) which respond to vehicle headlights, and a series of light emitter elements (14) also spaced along the track to be visible to operators of approaching vehicles, each light responsive element being connected by fibre optic cabling (22, 24) or other transmitting or transducer means to light emitter elements rearwardly of that particular location so that the light emitting elements along the track are activated sequentially in response to the headlights of a vehicle travelling ahead to provide a visible warning to following vehicles or vehicles on an intersecting course of the presence and distance ahead of the first vehicle. (Fig. 1 is a plan view). Distinct series of emitting elements may be interconnected to provide warning of respective zones of spacing between vehicles following each other, using red and amber light respectively. <IMAGE>
Description
TRAFFIC REGULATION SYSTEM
This invention relates to a track based traffic regulation system for promoting greater safety durino transit of vehicles thereon. While particularly applicable to road traffic it may also have application to other track based traffic flows such as rapid transit rail systems and other railways and traffic movement on airport runways and aprons or other specialized environments such as factories anc warehouses.
The object of the invention is to provide a system which is particularly effective in enhancing safety under conditions of obstructed or poor visibility such as fo@ in particular (but not exclusively) by promoting safe spacing between fast moving vehicles travelling in the same direction as on a motorway.
Systems have been proposed for monitoring spacing between following vehicles and providing a warning to drivers if spacing drops below the safe stopping distance at the speed in question but most known systems involve special adaptation of the vehicles themselves which is costly and means that a system; cat only become fully effective if all vehicles are so fitted. passive tract based warning or reminder systems such as warning signs illu@in@ted speed limit indications and the like are commonly ignored by drivers even if obedience is made mandatory. Adverse conditions make active Police patrolling and detection of infringements themselves difficult and dangerous.Passive systems still depend on the driver's ' s judgement or awareness of his or her speed and distance from the vehicle in front.
According to the invention there is provided d traci < based traffic regulation system including a series of light responsive elements spaced at intervals along at least part or the track and positioned to respond to light emitted front headlights of vehicles using;; the track or that part thereof and a series of light emitter elements also spaced along the track at locations visible to operators of vehicles approaching those locations along the track, each light responsive element being connected by transmitting or transducer means to one or more selected light emitter elements rearwardly thereof or otherwise remote therefrom so that the latter are activated sequentially in response to the headlights of a vehicle travelling ahead to provide a visible warning to a following vehicle or vehicle on an intersecting course of the presence and distance ahead of tne first vehicle.
Conveniently, in the case f a motorway or or road the light responsive and emitter elements will be mounted in the track surface., conveniently in the tanner of cat's eye5: and they may also define lanes of the road in the manner of conventional cat's eye road studs.
Preferably the groupings or sequences of interconnected elements Are directly connected by ii transmitting means, which could be fibre optic cables whereby the emitter elements are directly illuminated by light transmitted from the light responsive elements but it is also contemplated that transducer devices could be used e.g. to convert light acting on the responsive elements to an electric or other signal for activatin sources of illumination energizing the emitter elements.
It is also contemplated that on receiving an activating signal from the associated light responsive element or elements the emitter elements would be triggered to switch them from a non-reflective to a reflective condition so tat they were then illuminated by incident light, i.e. by the headlights of said following or intersecting vehicle rather than being illuminated as referred to above.
The emitter elements may b adapted to provide distinctive demarcation of zones of actual distance between the vehicles as by being interconnected or otherwise operated to emit different colours, e.g. green.
amber, and/or red depending on whether there is a sate, near safe or dangerously close spacing.
An example of the invention is now more particularly described with reference to the accompanying drawings wherein rigure 1 is a diagrammatic plan view of two of d sends ur warning stud assemblies installed along a lane of a motorway or other road
Figure 2 is a front elevation of one said stud assembly
Figure 3 is a longitudinal section thereof, and
Figure 4 is a diagram of sequential interconnection between a series of the stud asseniblie .
Stud assemblies 10 are secured in the surfacing 12 of a lena of a motorway or other road carriageway in the manner or the conventional cat 5 eye studs and they may be spaced along the lane at intervals of. for example, 5 metres.
JOn stud assembly 10 comprises two pairs of light responsive elements 1 4a 1 4b located to face the oncoming traffic and carried in a first flexible rubber cushion 1 mounted in a forward part of a body 1 O of the stud assembly. Surrounding portions of the body project somewhat above the road surface and the cushion 16 is retractable in the body if a road wheel passes over itthis also providing a wiping action to kelp lens portions of elements 14 clean in known manner.
Also mounted within body 18 to the rear of cushion 16 is a further flexible and retractable cushion 19 carrying two pairs of forwardly directed light responsive elements 20a, 20b. The elements 14 and 20 are paired for duplication to ensure continued operation if any one of each pair should be damaged. Again lens portions of elements 20 will be wiped by retraction of cushion 1 into body 18.
Th light responsive elements 20 are partly shielded by the upstanding parts of body 1 3 and the forward cushion 16 so that illumination from the headlights of an approaching vehicle will only reach them fully when that vehicle is within a certain distance from that stud assembly but the forward light emitting elements 14 are unobstructed and will be visible to an approaching vehicle from some distance.
The elements are not intended to be reflective, though there may be some minor reflection from their exposed lens shaped faces. They do not directly return light impinging on them. It is contemplated that the stud assembly may also include conventional reflective studs for lane guidance, e.g. reflecting white light in conventional manner, if require.
each light responsive element 20 is shaped to provide or otherwise incorpordte a small optical system of lens or lenses and/or prisms to concentrate the light received and transmit it along d respective optical fibre connecting cable 22 which is in turn connected to main optical fibre cabling 24 linking the sequence of assemblies 10 along the carriageway. Further optical fibre cables 26 lead from the main cable to the emitter elements 14, again these incorporate suitable optics for emitting light transmitted thereto focused towards the oncoming traffic, elements 14a emitting amber light and elements 14b red light in this example.
The stud assemblies 10 along the carriageway are interconnected sequentially in the mariner shown diagrammatically in Figure 4. A series of the assemblies, numbered sequentially 1-14 in the direction of travel of vehicles along the respective carriageway lane from left to right in Figure 4 have the light responsive elements 20 of each assembly connected to the light emitting elements 14 of in this example eight of the assemblies rearwardly thereof.
Taking the assembly number 11 in Figure 4 one pair of light responsive elements 2(3 is connected to the amber light emitting elements 14 of the four assemblies numbered 1-4 which are spaced rearwardly thereof oniitting the intervening elements 5-10. Thus when these responsive elements are illuminated by the headlights of an approaching vehicle indicated diagrammatically at 30 the amber emitter elements in a zone 35-50 metres rearwardly of assembly 11 will be illuminated, i.e. a distance of about 30 metres from vehicle 30.
At the sane time the light responsive elements 20b of assembly 11 will also be illuttinated and these are interconnected to the red emitter elements 1 4b of a sequence of closer assemblies 5-8 defining a danger zone to the rear of vehicle 30 some 25 metres in extent. As tne vehicle passes forward further assemblies will be progressively $activated, thus the responsive elements 2@a of assembly 12 are connected to th amber emitter elements 14a of assemblies 2-5 and its responsive elements 2ijS are connected to the red emitter elements 14b of assemblies D-S and this sequential illumination of the red and amber elements will continue at a rate determined by the speed of vehicle 30 sequentially along the traffic lane.
Thus å following vehicle will have a reaoily visible indication independently of obstructions or poor visibility such as darkness, fog; rain etc not only that there is a vehicle in front but also of its spacing ahead and the speed at which it is moving or whether it has stopped. For safety a following vehicle should keep clear behind the amber illuminated elements and will !enow that if it approaches the red illuminated elements it is getting far too close for safety.
The sequential illumination of the elements increases awareness of following vehicles without being unduly distracting and is much more easy to monitor even sub-consciously, than non-interactive warning signs.
M@reover. warnings become available immediately vehicles use their headlights, they are not dependent on adverse conditions being sensed by traffic authorities or road side monitoring equipment. Most, if not all, vehicles will turn on their headlights even when encountering isolated banks of fog or the like and this will provide
instant warning to following vehicles. As responsible drivers become familiar with the system they will also make deliberate use of it to provide a warning to following vehicles e.g. of obstructions or accidents ahead.Drivers will know that if the sequence of illuminated studs is not moving ahead there is a stationary obstruction and they should be able to stop in ample time, their headlights in turn warning vehicles behind them of the adverse conditions.
it will be appreciated that interconnection between the stud assemblies and their spacing can be varied according to local road conoitions and normal traffic speeds. There may even be the possibility of selective control by switching to in crease or decrease the chains or illuminated assemblies associated with each assent-uly ahead.
@hile the fibre optic direct interconnection of the light responsive and light emitting elements is preferred as riot requiring any external power source and for ourebility and reliability once installed it is also contemplated that elëctrically powered systems might be used in some circumstances for sequential illumination of light e';;itting elements in the for of warning lights signs an the like rearwardly of the associated light responsive elements and the latter could be transducers converting the light input to electric sionals or the like. Transmission between the assemblies nay also be by various means, e.g. fibre optic or electrical cabling or possibly by infra-red. radio or other transmitter means.
It is contemplated that the invention might also have application in providing a warning to a vehicle of the presence of another vehicle on an intersecting course eg at or approaching a bend, road junction, merging traffic lines, or other hazard where the vehicles are travelling towards each other or converging rather than in following relationship as described above.
