Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The vehicle front stop light of the present invention relates to a vehicle stop light,
In particular, the present invention relates to a device for instructing the light source of a stop lamp, which is a signal at the time of stopping, so that it can be seen from the front side.

2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, in vehicles such as automobiles that are driven by an engine, a lamp that lights up when stopped is attached to the rear end as a brake lamp. Other than that, there was only a stop light on the rear of the car body, such as a high-mount stop lamp, which can be confirmed by the following vehicles. This is effective as a device to notify the following vehicle as a stop signal, but for those that require confirmation on the opposite side or in the front,
It could not be judged until the speed was reduced and the vehicle stopped. These things, especially during work during road construction, such as a stop light bar that will be a signal when a construction worker requests a stop, or a vehicle approaching forward even if you shake a red flag etc. There were many cases where I didn't know if I was decelerating. In this case, the worker may come to the front of the car, thinking that he will stop,
It could be a dangerous act. For this reason, there was a concern that the vehicle that would come from the front would always stop.
The same can be said for police officers seeking an emergency stop, as described above. In addition, at an intersection where a staggered traffic signal is installed, the driver on the side turning right,
I could not notice that the traffic signal on the oncoming side had changed because I could not confirm in advance that the oncoming vehicle coming from the front entered the deceleration stop. This is also true for pedestrians, who do not know if a crossing car is about to stop due to a change in signal,
Even if the traffic lights on the pedestrian side were blue, there was always no stop sign from the car side, so the danger level was increasing. These things caused the illusion that the automobile, etc. was stopped by the visual sense of the flow because the confirmation from the front could not be obtained. In other words, as before, there was a fear of stopping the vehicle that always came from the front.

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION Problems to be Solved by the Invention The present invention requires a determination as to whether or not the vehicle is in a stopped state from the front in the case of a stop light only at the rear portion or a high mount stop lamp, which is the above-mentioned drawback. However, there is a problem in that it is not possible to make a decision during the day because the light emission state of the lighting light is only known at night. Also, as a device for large vehicles, etc., it is attached to the front part, and you can only see the speed state by looking at the speed judgment indicator light etc., and notify the front from the stop state due to depression of the foot brake or exhaust brake etc. There was a problem that it was not a lamp. The present invention has been made in view of such various conventional problems. Its main purpose is to be able to confirm the operation of the stopped state from the front even when the sun shines in the daytime, and to provide the front confirmer with the same role as the stop light transmitted to the rear. It is a thing.

Means for Solving the Problems In order to solve the above-mentioned problem that is harmful, the present invention steps on a foot brake or an exhaust brake to illuminate a stop lamp provided in front of the vehicle body in a linked manner. It is characterized by sako. Further, the above-mentioned problem can be solved by installing a lamp device instead of the stop light on the windshield surface in the front part of the vehicle.

By providing an on-vehicle front stop light according to the present invention, it is easy to confirm that the oncoming vehicle has stepped on the brake and entered the deceleration state from the front, and can give remarkable visibility. ,
For safety reasons, it is most suitable as a stop light. It should be noted that the present invention can eliminate the fear of a pedestrian, a worker, and the like, and also has an effect that work can be performed smoothly.

Embodiments Embodiments of the vehicle front stop lamp according to the present invention will be described in detail below. (1) The stop lights 2 are arranged on the front part 1 of the vehicle body in consideration of the structure of the body. The light shape is preferably a red panel like the conventional brake lamp in consideration of confirmation, but it is not limited to this as long as the color feeling is effective for human eyes. (2) In the second embodiment, the stop light 9 placed in the vehicle interior 4 is mounted inside the windshield 8 in the so-called driver's seat. In this case, it is desirable that the stop light 9 placed in the vehicle interior 4 be attached to the windshield 8 in the form of a belt so that the driver's view is not obstructed. The effect can also be expected by making the light source blink. In this case, since the blinking light source moves spatially and cyclically with regularity, it is possible to give noticeable visibility to a person who confirms from the front because the blinking portion moves so as to flow. . Further, from the above, as shown in FIG. 5, the bumper 7 at the frontmost portion of the vehicle body can be similarly applied. At that time, the stop light to be attached is also light-shaped like the stop light 10, and can also be like the stop light 8 placed in the vehicle interior 4 in the form of a strip. As an example, it is represented by the stop light 11 in FIG. Incidentally, this can be similarly applied to the front part of the vehicle body in the above (1) as the stop light 3. (3) Further, as shown in FIG. 8 as an example,
In large vehicles such as trucks, the pedestal portion 12 occupies most of the vehicle body. Therefore, when it comes to the front of the vehicle body, the front direction can be regarded as the front portion rather than the driver seat portion. Installation of the stop light 13 is also included in such an embodiment of the present invention. (4) Although the drawings in the present invention show that the vehicle body shape is a truck, it is merely an example of the vehicle body shape, and even in a passenger car type having a front body, the front stop lamp of the present invention is not shown. Needless to say, the same installation can be performed.

As described above, by providing the vehicle-mounted front stop light of the present invention, it is easy to confirm that the vehicle coming from the front has entered the deceleration state by stepping on the brake, and it is noticeable In terms of safety measures, the greatest effect of a stop light is to be able to give the property. Furthermore, the fact that the present invention can eliminate the fear of dangers associated with pedestrians, workers, and the like is that it can exert an effect in mental aspects as well, especially when working on roads. It is possible to achieve an excellent effect that a person can smoothly work.
