JP3201183U - Marker display combined direction indicator - Google Patents

Abstract

Provided is a marker display combined direction indicator that can be used in a vehicle without a vehicle width light or tail light such as a bicycle and can easily identify night, left, and right. The indication side of the direction indicator lamp is blinked, and the indicator lamp on the opposite side is continuously lit. Use the continuous lighting display on the opposite side as a marker for the blinking lighting display on the instruction side. [Selection] Figure 1

Description

The present invention relates to a vehicle direction indicator.

    The conventional direction indicator for a vehicle is a method in which only the indicator lamp on the indication side flashes.

JP-A-2005-161917

  When the conventional direction indicator display method is applied to a vehicle having a narrow vehicle width like a bicycle and having no vehicle width light or tail light, it is difficult to distinguish left or right at night.

  In the left and right indicator lamps of the direction indicator, the indicator side indicator lamp blinks and at the same time, the indicator lamps other than the indicator side are continuously lit. This continuous lighting functions as a marker for the indicator lamp on the indication side, and the left and right can be identified even with the direction indicator alone.

    A conventional turn signal indicator must be combined with a vehicle width light for a four-wheeled vehicle. For a two-wheeled vehicle, a headlight or taillight must be placed in the center of the vehicle, and indicator lights must be attached to the left and right sides of the vehicle. did not become. In the present invention, it is possible to distinguish left and right even with a turn indicator alone. Therefore, there is no vehicle width light or tail light like a bicycle, and right and left can be identified even if the headlight is not arranged in the center. In addition, the left and right indicator lamps can be stored in a single container so that the right and left can be easily identified as a compact indicator.

There are various methods for the electric control circuit for operating the present invention. This is an example of the system diagram, and shows the state where the indicator lamp 4 is continuously lit and the indicator lamp 5 is flashing.

  In order to implement the present invention, it can be realized by an electric control circuit.

In FIG. 1, the changeover switch 3-1 and the changeover switch 3-2 of the left / right indicator light changeover switch 3 are assumed to be linked.

The operation | movement description about FIG. When the contact B of the changeover switch 3-1 and the contact B of the changeover switch 3-2 are in the open state and the direction instruction is not displayed, the changeover switches 3-1 and 3-2 are set to this position. When the right turn display is performed, the position of each of the change-over switches 3-1 and 3-2 of the change-over switch 3 is set to the contact A, so that the continuous lighting power source 1 passes through the contact A of the change-over switch 3-1. The indicator lamp 4 connected to the contact A is continuously lit. On the other hand, the blinking lighting power source 2 blinks and lights the indicator lamp 5 connected to the contact A via the contact A of the changeover switch 3-2. This blinking and lit indicator lamp 5 is the indicating side, and the indicator lamp 4 that is continuously lit in response to the blinking lighting of the indicating side indicator lamp is the marker. Similarly, in the case of a left turn, the position of each change-over switch 3-1, 3-2 of the change-over switch 3 is set to the contact C, so that the continuous lighting power source 1 passes through the contact C of the change-over switch 3-1. Thus, the indicator lamp 5 connected to the contact C is continuously lit. On the other hand, the blinking lighting power source 2 blinks and lights the indicator lamp 4 connected to the contact C via the contact C of the changeover switch 3-2. The blinking indicator lamp 4 is the indicator side, and the indicator lamp 5 that is continuously lit with respect to the indicator side indicator lamp blinking is a marker.

  Article 53 of the Road Traffic Law stipulates that a vehicle must display direction instructions when changing its course. Since a bicycle is also a vehicle (light vehicle), a direction indicator is necessary.
