Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial application field] This invention is installed inside the car facing the rear window of the car, and when the brake pedal of the car is pressed, the internal light bulb turns on and a red transparent light is emitted. This invention relates to an automotive brake light that notifies following vehicles that the brakes have been applied by lighting up the light plate.

[Conventional technology]

Conventional brake lights of this type are installed inside the car at a certain distance from the rear windshield, and are fairly bright to notify following cars that the brakes have been applied, even during the day. Ta.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

Therefore, during the daytime, you can only see the brake lights on, but at night, the glow of the red translucent plate is reflected on the entire rear window glass, making the entire rear window glass appear red. .

As a result, following vehicles had the disadvantage of creating the illusion that the vehicle in front of them was on fire, causing them to slam on the brakes and causing a collision between the following vehicles.

[Purpose of invention]

However, in order to prevent a rear-end collision with a following vehicle, it is necessary to notify the driver that the brakes have been applied by as many means as possible.

To this end, the present invention installs brake lights inside the vehicle to notify following vehicles of braking.
The purpose of this system is to allow only a portion of the rear window glass to shine even at night, with the entire surface glowing red to create the illusion of a fire, thereby preventing accidents caused by sudden braking by vehicles following.

[Means for solving problems]

This invention is intended to achieve the above-mentioned purpose.
This means that a light bulb is installed inside, a mounting base is rotatably screwed to one side of a case provided with a red transparent plate on one side of the light bulb, and the mounting base is rotatably screwed to the transparent plate side of the case.
This is achieved by a brake light for an automobile in which the other end of a cover having an inner cavity and an obliquely cut end is fitted onto the other end.

[Effect]

In the automobile brake light of the present invention, the cover is attached to the case so that the obliquely cut side edge of the cover is close to or in contact with the rear window glass, and the mounting base of the case is attached to the case. Installed inside the vehicle, the cover restricts the direction of light reflection from the red translucent plate, and the reflection of the light is limited to a portion of the rear window glass, making the entire rear window glow red at night. This is to prevent

[Example of idea]

An example of implementation of the invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

1 shows a state in which cover A is removed from case B, and FIG. 2 shows a state in which case B is disassembled.

The cover A for a sedan is a one with a medium slanted cut angle as shown in Figs. 3 and 4 A ₁ ,
For hatchback vehicles, we use a diagonal shape with a large cutting angle, A ₂ , as shown in Figure 5, and for wagons and light vans, we use a diagonal shape with a small cutting angle, A ₃ , as shown in Figure 6. Three types are available.

In the case B, a reflector 3 with a socket 2 of a light bulb 1 attached thereto is attached with screws 4, and a mounting pedestal 6 is attached to a shaft 7 on the side from which a lead wire 5 to the socket 2 is led out from the case B. It is screwed so that it can rotate.

This screwing is done so that when the angle of the case B with respect to the mounting base 6 is changed, the case B is hard enough to maintain the angle.

Further, the case B has an opening toward the surface of the light bulb 1, and a red transparent plate 8 is inserted into this opening, and a small protrusion 9 protruding from the opposite surface of the opening prevents its removal. ing.

The cover A has an inner cavity, and on the opposite side of the oblique cut surface there is a stepped portion 10 inserted into the opening of the case B.
A protrusion 11 that fits on the outer surface of the case B is formed, and by inserting the stepped portion 10 into the opening surface of the case B and fitting the protrusion 11 on the outer surface, the cover A
is attached to case B.

At this time, from the oblique cut surface of cover A to case B
The red transparent plate 8 is visible.

For sedan cars, with cover A ₁ attached to case B, remove the cover as shown in Figure 3.
The mounting pedestal 6 is mounted to the rear parcel tray with screws 12 with the oblique cut surface of A ₁ closely or close to the rear window glass C ₁ .

At this time, if the height from the rear parcel tray to the rear window glass is high, as shown in FIG. so that it is installed on the

In addition, in the case of a hatchback car, as shown in Figure 5, turn it over in the opposite direction from the sedan car and remove the cover A _2.
Attach the mounting base 6 to the rear window glass C using double-sided adhesive tape 14.

Furthermore, in the case of wagons and light vans, the 6th
As shown in the figure, using the cover A ₃ , attach the mounting base 6 to the rear window glass C using the double-sided adhesive tape 14.
Paste it with.

In either case, the lead wire 5 is connected to a required brake lamp circuit inside the vehicle.

In the above embodiment, the cover A is A ₁ , A ₂ ,
We prepared three types of cover _A3 and used them selectively depending on the type of car, but the cover A we prepared was
Only one type of _A1 may be used, and the oblique cut surface may be further cut to change the cut angle depending on the type of automobile.

[Effect of idea]

As mentioned above, the present invention involves fitting the opposite side of the cover, which is cut out diagonally on one side, into a case equipped with a light bulb and a red transparent plate, and using the diagonal cut surface as a rear window. The case is installed inside the vehicle in close contact with or close to the glass.

At this time, the angle of the cover can be adjusted to the angle of the rear window glass by screwing the mounting base for mounting the case inside the vehicle.

Therefore, when the driver steps on the brake, the light bulb lights up and the red transparent plate shines, which together with the brake light installed on the car, can notify the following vehicle that the driver has stepped on the brakes.

However, the radiation range of the red light emitted from the red transparent plate is limited by the cover and is reflected within the inner cavity of the cover, so the entire rear window glass does not shine red even at night.

This eliminates the illusion that there is a fire caused by the entire surface of the rear window glowing red.
This prevents the following vehicle from slamming on the brakes and causing a rear-end collision.

Further, the structure is simple and it can be easily installed in a car.
