Abstract

<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a winker which can be easily mounted on a front basket of a bicycle or on a rear load deck, and which has an effect of a unique accessory as well. <P>SOLUTION: This winker consists of an indication section (3), a change-over switch (5) and a power supply section (4). Two indicators (1), (2) are attached horizontally at a certain interval, and when one indicator is set so as to have marker lighting, the other indication is set so as to have flicker lighting. This is a winker with marker with the two indicators (1), (2) as a pair, having a system which indicates a right turn if there is a positional relationship that flicker lighting is on the right side against marker lighting and which indicates a left turn if flicker lighting is on the left side against marker lighting. This winker satisfies that the indication section (3) is to be easily mounted at an appropriate position of a bicycle and to implement it, the winker is of as compact a type as and possible and direction indication is to be made on one indication section. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2005,JPO&NCIPI

Description

この発明は自転車の前かごや、後ろ荷台に簡単に取り付けられ、且つユニークなアクセサリーとしての効果も兼ね添えた方向指示器に関するものである。 The present invention relates to a direction indicator that can be easily attached to a front basket or a rear loading platform of a bicycle and also has an effect as a unique accessory.

従来、自転車の方向指示は手信号で行われていた。 Conventionally, the direction of the bicycle is indicated by a hand signal.

しかし、この方法は現代の厳しい交通事情において片手運転は危険を伴うものであり、手信号を実行している人は皆無に等しく、現代の交通事情にはそぐわない。 However, this method is dangerous in one-handed driving in today's severe traffic situation, and no one is performing a hand signal, and it is not suitable for the current traffic situation.

二つの表示灯(1)(2)を、ある一定の間隔を置いて水平に取り付けた表示部(3)と、この表示灯(1)(2)を点灯するための電源部(4)を設ける。表示部(3)と電源部(4)
の中間に切り替えスイッチ(5)を設ける。この切り替えスイッチ(5)は右折れ、左折れ、ニユートラルの切り替えを行うものである。
作用を図1にて説明する。
切り替えスイッチは3回路2連スイツチとなっており、今切り替えスイッチ(5)が中央にある場合は、どちらの表示灯にも電流が供給されないニュートラル状態である。しかして、切り替えスイッチ(5)を中央から右に回すと、右側の表示灯(2)に点滅点灯電流(7)が電源部(4)から供給される。それと同時に左側の表示灯(1)にはマーカー点灯電流(6)が電源部(4)より供給される。切り替えスイッチ(5)を中央から左に回した場合、表示灯(1)に点滅点灯電流(7)が供給され、同時に表示灯(2)にはマーカー点灯電流(6)が供給される。 Two indicator lamps (1) and (2) are installed horizontally at a certain interval (3), and a power supply unit (4) for lighting the indicator lamps (1) and (2). Provide. Display (3) and power supply (4)
A changeover switch (5) is provided in the middle. This change-over switch (5) turns right, left, and neutral.
The operation will be described with reference to FIG.
The change-over switch is a three-circuit double switch. When the change-over switch (5) is now in the center, it is in a neutral state in which no current is supplied to either indicator lamp. Accordingly, when the changeover switch (5) is turned from the center to the right, the blinking lighting current (7) is supplied from the power supply unit (4) to the right indicator lamp (2). At the same time, the marker lighting current (6) is supplied from the power source (4) to the left indicator lamp (1). When the changeover switch (5) is turned from the center to the left, the blinking lighting current (7) is supplied to the indicator lamp (1), and at the same time, the marker lighting current (6) is supplied to the indicator lamp (2).

表示部(3)は自転車のユーザー自身で適当な所に簡単に取り付けられる。又表示部(3)を動物の顔の形にすれば、ユーモラスなアクセサリーとなり、動物がウインクをしているように見え、周りの雰囲気を和らげてくれる。それにより交通事故が少しでも減少されれば、なによりである。 The display unit (3) can be easily attached to an appropriate place by the bicycle user himself. If the display (3) is shaped like an animal's face, it will become a humorous accessory, and the animal will appear to wink, and the surrounding atmosphere will be softened. If traffic accidents are reduced as much as possible, it will be better.

動物の顔を形どった目の部分に表示灯(1)(2)を埋め込んでなる表示部(3)を自転車の前かごや、後ろ荷台等に取り付ける。又切り替えスイッチ(5)はハンドル部の操作し易い位置に取り付ける。電源部(4)は切り替えスイッチ(5)と一体化するか、又は別付けとする。これらを図1のように結線する。操作は作用の項で述べたように、右折れの表示の場合は切り替えスイッチ(5)を右回しに、左折れの場合は左回しにすればよい。
Attach the indicator (3) with the indicator lamps (1) and (2) embedded in the eyes that shaped the animal's face to the front basket of the bicycle, the rear carrier, etc. The changeover switch (5) is attached to a position where the handle portion is easy to operate. The power supply unit (4) is integrated with the changeover switch (5) or is attached separately. These are connected as shown in FIG. As described in the section of operation, the operation may be performed by turning the changeover switch (5) to the right when displaying a right turn and turning to the left when turning to the left.

Claims

When two indicator lamps (1) and (2) are arranged horizontally at a certain interval and one indicator lamp is lit with a marker, the other indicator lamp blinks. If the blinking light is on the right side with respect to the marker lighting, then the right turn is displayed, and if the blinking light is on the left side with respect to the marker lighting, the system has a system that displays a left turn. Direction indicator with a marker that consists of two indicator lights (1) and (2).
