Description

A safety device for protecting taxi drivers {Taxi Driver Safety Device}

[0001]

The present invention relates to a device for protecting a taxi (vehicle) driver, and more particularly, to a taxi driver protection device designed to safely protect the driver from harmful actions of passengers (intoxicated, robber, etc.) in a taxi will be.

[0002]

The background technology of the present invention is a technology that applies the principle of an air bag installed and used in most automobiles.

[0003]

In the case of car airbags, the sensor that detects a vehicle collision detects an accident and inflates the airbag momentarily to protect the driver and passengers by applying a function to protect the driver and passengers when the taxi driver feels threatened. ) is operated by the driver himself to completely separate the driver from drunk passengers and bad passengers, and devise a device with the function of overcoming a crisis situation.

[0004]

As a taxi is a public transportation method that transports a large number of people, the driver's duty and role to transport passengers safely to their destination is of paramount importance.

However, since the driver's and passenger's seats are open inside the taxi, and the space is narrow, driving at a close distance to the passenger may be disturbed by drunken passengers or poor passengers.

[0005]

In the process of driving a taxi driver, if drunk passengers or bad passengers intentionally assault the driver or threaten the driver with a weapon, the driver is inevitably exposed to attacks while driving defenseless, and in this case, it leads to a major vehicle accident. As a result, not only the driver was injured or killed, but also the perpetrator was injured or killed.

[0006]

It is a protection device designed to momentarily block the rear and right side of the taxi driver's seat when an emergency occurs in order to protect the taxi driver from such harmful acts of drunken passengers and bad passengers.

[0007]

In the prior art of the device for protecting taxi drivers, in order to protect taxi drivers from harmful actions of drunk passengers and bad passengers, a part of the rear and right side of the taxi driver's seat is made of transparent and flat plastic or acrylic, etc. It is a device that is installed in a fixed type to block a part from passengers.

[0008]

The protection device manufactured in the prior art is fixed to the driver's seat at all times, so it can be protected in an emergency situation, but it causes inconvenience to the driver in normal driving, and when driving at night or in the rainy season, it is difficult to secure the side and rear visibility. There are many difficulties.

[0009]

Such a conventional taxi driver protection device can protect the driver from harm to the passengers in the rear and front seats of the taxi by installing a structure to protect a part of the rear and side surfaces of the driver's seat. However, due to this protection device (structure), the driver's It obstructs driving vision and gives the driver physical or mental discomfort.

[0010]

In addition, when driving at night or in the rainy season, the transparent plastic plate is made of transparent plastic plate, which blocks the driver's view and provides the cause of accidents. .

[0011]

And even though taxi drivers are threatened by drunken passengers and bad passengers, it does not always happen every day, but in order to prevent one crisis situation that may occur, always attach a protective device structure and drive while taking the inconvenience. There are problems that need to be addressed.

[0012]

The safety device to be devised to solve the problems of the conventional protection device is attached to a minimum so that the driver does not feel discomfort and does not obstruct the driving view when driving normally, and when an emergency occurs, the driver and drunk passengers (bad passengers) ) to completely separate the device to protect the driver.

[0013]

When a taxi driver is judged to be an emergency by a drunk passenger (bad passenger), the task is to devise a device that perfectly separates the driver from the drunk passenger (bad passenger) by momentarily operating the protection device with a simple motion of the driver.

[0014]

In order to perform the above-mentioned problem, it is intended to apply the principle of the air bag installed in most automobiles to the present invention.

[0015]

In the case of car airbags, the sensor that detects a vehicle collision detects an accident and inflates the airbag momentarily to protect the driver and passengers by applying a function to protect the driver and passengers when the taxi driver feels threatened. ) is operated by the driver himself to completely separate the driver from drunk passengers and bad passengers, and devise a device with the function of overcoming a crisis situation.

[0016]

The effect of the present invention is that even after the taxi driver protection device is installed in the taxi, it does not affect the driver at all (crashness, obstruction of driving vision, discomfort, etc.) .(refer to Figure 2)

[0017]

Existing products that have been developed and sold (taxi driver protection walls) give a lot of inconvenience to drivers in driving after installation. Especially when it rains or when driving at night, it gives a lot of difficulty.

[0018]

This device minimizes the inconvenience of the existing product and does not affect the operation of the vehicle at all, and when it is judged that it is in an emergency due to a bad passenger (intoxicated, robber, or quarrelsome passenger) during operation, the operating lever ( 5) Pull and operate this device, so it is completely separated from bad passengers and has the effect of keeping safety

[0019]

In other words, the present invention does not cause any inconvenience to driving as it can be operated in the same way as before, and it can be operated instantaneously in an emergency due to bad passengers to prevent threats from bad passengers.

[0020]
Figure 1 is to fix the fixing parts (2), (3) for fixing the present invention to the taxi driver's seat (1) to the driver's seat headrest pin.
[0021]
In Fig. 2, the blocking part before operation (the airbag bag 6 before operation) is fixed to the fixing part in the shape of "L" on the rear side of the driver's seat.
[0022]
Figure 2 is a state in which the present invention is mounted on the driver's seat of a taxi.
[0023]
That is, the representative diagram is on the left side, and when the driver pulls the operation lever (5) when an emergency situation occurs due to a bad passenger while the driver is driving,
[0024]
The wire 5-1 connected to the air supply part 4 of FIG. 3 operates the air switch 4-1 to inflate the compressed gas compressed in the compressed air cylinder 4-2, and the blocking part 7 is Compressed air is momentarily inflated through the tube (4-3) connected to the airbag, and the airbag blocking unit (7) is unfolded to separate and block the rear and side of the driver from bad passengers, thereby protecting the driver's safety in a crisis situation.

[0025]

This invention is to protect taxi drivers from bad passengers as in the representative diagram. That is, in order to artificially separate the driver's seat and the passenger seat, which is the goal of this paper, it includes a fixing part (2) and (3) that are fixed to the driver's seat headrest pin, and a blocking part (7) that is unfolded in case of an emergency to separate and block the driver and the passenger. do.

[0026]

The blocking part 7 blocks the rear and side surfaces, is made of an air tube, is folded in a state in which air is usually removed, and is stored wrapped in an airbag pocket 6 .

[0027]

The material is made of soft materials and generally used in the market for airbags or air tubes.

[0028]

At this time, when the driver determines that it is a crisis situation and pulls the operating lever (5) to open the blocking part (7) to separate it from the bad passenger, when the bad passenger hits the soft blocking part with a knife or a knife, the inflated blocking As the negative air escapes, it may contract and the barrier may disappear.

[0029]

In order to prevent this, a sword (which cannot be penetrated with a knife or weapon at once) fabric is attached to the rear and right surfaces of the blocking part 7, so that a bad passenger hits the blocking part with a knife or a weapon and the air in the blocking part is momentarily escaped and contracted. It should be designed to prevent

[0030]

That is, the blocking part (7), which is expanded due to the expansion of the air, should not be contracted again under any circumstances, and the air can be removed by the compressed air opening/closing device (4-1). make it usable again.

[0031]

The used compressed air cylinder (4-2) and compressed air switch (4-1) are disposable and cannot be used once used.

[0032]

The shape of the blocking part unfolding in a crisis situation may vary depending on the installation location of the taxi driver protection device.
