Secondary Accident Prevention System for Vehicles Equipped with Aircraft{PREVENTING SYSTEM FOR VEHICLE SECONDARY ACCIDENT WITH DRONE}

The present invention relates to a system for preventing secondary accidents of a vehicle, and more particularly, to a system for preventing secondary accidents in a vehicle equipped with an aircraft capable of providing a warning signal through an aircraft mounted on the vehicle.

In general, when an accident or breakdown of a vehicle occurs on all roads such as highways, automobile-only roads, tunnels, and bridges, the accident or breakdown vehicle temporarily stops on the road until the police or a tow truck is dispatched.

As such, when the vehicle is stopped on the road due to an accident or breakdown, etc., there is a problem that the vehicle following the vehicle does not see the stopped vehicle in front, so that a secondary accident occurs frequently after the first accident. , these secondary accidents are leading to major accidents.

The fatality rate of secondary accidents is three times that of primary accidents, so it is desirable to prevent secondary accidents in advance. To this end, it is required to install a safety tripod at the rear in order to inform that there is an accident in the front when a vehicle accident occurs.

Such a tripod is disclosed in Korean Patent Laid-Open Publication No. 10-2014-0096593 and the like.

However, the safety tripod for performing such an accident notification has a problem in that an installer, such as a driver of an accident vehicle, must move and install it on the road.

That is, since the installer has to move 100 to 200 meters backward from the accident point with the safety tripod and install it, the installer is exposed to the vehicle in motion and is very dangerous in the process of installing the safety tripod.

In addition, when a vehicle accident or vehicle breakdown occurs, the driver is in a panicked state, so there is a high possibility that the driver forgets to install a safety tripod at the rear, thereby increasing the possibility of a secondary accident.

Moreover, the safety tripod as described above is installed on the ground and there is a problem that cannot be confirmed in a vehicle from a distance.

Accordingly, there is a demand for improvement of the problems of the prior art as described above.

Republic of Korea Patent Publication No. 10-2014-0096593

The present invention was created to improve the problems of the prior art as described above, and in the event of a vehicle accident, an aircraft capable of maximizing the warning range by providing a warning signal to the rear of the accident point through the flight of the vehicle provided in the vehicle The purpose is to provide an onboard vehicle secondary accident prevention system.

Specifically, the present invention relates to a vehicle equipped with an aircraft capable of providing a warning signal visually or audibly while flying by an impact caused by an accident or direct control of the user in a state in which the vehicle is mounted on a charging station provided in the vehicle. Its purpose is to provide a car accident prevention system.

In addition, an object of the present invention is to provide a vehicle secondary accident prevention system equipped with a vehicle that can return the vehicle to a charging station of the vehicle by a third party even when there is no driver at the end of the accident.
