The present invention relates to a bicycle having a driving intention indicator light to display the driving intention of the driver while driving by installing a front indicator and a rear indicator in front of and behind the bicycle.

In general, the bicycle is a mechanism that can be driven by the driver's power without having a separate power device as well known as a medium and short-distance means of transportation, transport of small goods, or exercise, etc. It is the situation that is used.

On the other hand, in modern times, motorcycles equipped with small engines of automobiles are rapidly developed, and they are widely distributed, and are more convenient than bicycles that need to be moved by the driver's power. Is reaching.

However, in recent years, too many motorcycles and automobiles are widely used, which causes frequent traffic jams and severe parking problems, which is a big social problem. Especially, the air pollution problem caused by driving the engine is damaging to the natural environment. As a result, countries around the world are tightening emission regulations, and above all, recommending the use of automobiles and motorcycles.

Therefore, the use value of bicycles is increasing again. Looking at its advantages, firstly, when there were not many cars, cars and motorcycles could be faster, but nowadays the roads are blocked so that the middle and short distances can be moved without any traffic jams. It can be rather faster and doesn't require a lot of parking space. Secondly, because it does not use fuel, it not only saves precious energy (fuel), but it also preserves the natural environment without worrying about air pollution, and third, because it requires a lot of exercise when riding a bicycle. It also has the advantage of helping the driver's fitness.

In order to meet the advantages of such a bicycle, its use is increasing, and from a growing point of view, a conventional general bicycle has the following problems.

In other words, in the conventional self-driving vehicle, there is always a danger of an accident because there is no separate device for driving the driver's intention to drive the road, especially at night. Normal movement in the situation is very difficult.

In this regard, the conventional situation is that there is a headlight for illuminating the dark front, and a light reflector, which is used to indicate its position, is attached on the support frame or the rear wheel, but it does not emit light by itself. Declaration of intention is impossible.

In addition, the motorcycle already has a driving intention display function, and in the sense that it is a motorcycle, a bicycle or a big car, but as described above, it is strictly different when it is used to use a non-powered means of transportation. Apart from the point, the structure of the main body, the steering wheel, the wheels, etc. are different, so it is not easily quoted on the bicycle.

Therefore, the present invention is to provide a driving intention display device that can be mounted and used more effectively in view of the above problems, the main purpose of the invention is to inform the surrounding objects of the driver's intention to drive the bicycle immediately to the maximum safety It aims to make it possible to go out and to supply at a low price with a very simple structure, easy to install with a simple structure, and to be widely distributed by installing on any bicycle.

And a characteristic configuration for this is fixed to the bottom of the bicycle carrier frame with a strap with a buckle, but to provide a power supply unit with a relay mechanism and a storage battery, receiving power from the power supply unit has a red light emitting unit in the center, left, right Optional rear and rear lights on the back of the carrier frame with yellow light emitting parts on both sides, the front light on the handle shaft having yellow light emitting parts on the left and right sides while receiving power from the power supply unit, and yellow light emitting parts on the front and rear lights. The direction switch switch attached to the left handle of the handle to light up the light, and the ring fixed to the cable of the rear brake lever are placed under the left and right handles of the handle to light up the red light emitting part of the rear light. It consists of brake switch parts for each front and rear wheel configured to press the micro switch. .
