Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

  The present invention belongs to an automobile alarm sound generating device for notifying the danger of automobile traffic or for informing others of the existence of an automobile.

  The current car has only one warning horn that makes a loud sound.

Problems to be solved by the invention

In such a case, the driver of the car always sounds an alarm horn or avoids it from being unsafe in order to avoid it.
The alarm horn is loud and uncomfortable and may cause a secondary disaster. Therefore, it is forbidden to use it in the city.

Means for solving the problem

  A warning horn that emits a gentle sound is provided separately from the conventional alarm horn. This informs bicycles, pedestrians, etc. of the existence of a car, and when the switch is turned on, it will give attention by emitting a human voice, chime, buzzer, car engine sound, etc. from a speaker.

Embodiments of the present invention will be described below.
The warning horn is composed of a warning horn switch (3), a voice module (4), an amplifier (5), and a speaker (6).
When the caution horn switch (3) is turned on, an audio signal is output from the audio module (4) to which audio is input, and this is amplified by the amplifier (5) and emitted from the speaker (6) to the outside.
The warning horn switch (3) is a first-stage switch that is turned on by first lightly pressing the conventional alarm horn switch (2) into a two-stage switch. The conventional alarm horn is a second-stage switch that is turned on when pressed more strongly.

The invention's effect

  It can be noticed by ringing a warning horn to a bicycle or pedestrian who is not aware that the car is approaching. The caution horn is not unpleasant because of its easy sound, and it is effective in reducing noise and troubles.
