Description

Oppfinnelsen vedrører en anordning ved frontlyset påThe invention relates to a device at the front light on

et kjøretøy.a vehicle.

Når kjøretøyer møtes på en vei i mørket, fremkommerWhen vehicles meet on a road in the dark, appears

det ofte problemer på grunn av at bilførerne blendes gjensi-dig, henholdsvis at kjørelyset nedblendes i så stor grad at dette kan bety fare for f.eks. personer som beveger seg langs veikanten. En årsak til disse problemer kan bl.a. ligge i at lyset nedblendes i ett trinn direkte, slik at det ikke foreligger andre muligheter enn "for sterkt lys" og "for lite lys". Det er derfor et ønske å muliggjøre en tilpasning og helst også en regulering av lyset slik at det minst mulig vil sjenere et møtende kjøretøys fører, samtidig som mest mulig av veibanen, spesielt også i svinger, samt omgivelsene forblir belyst. there are often problems due to the drivers blinding each other, or the driving lights being dimmed to such an extent that this can mean danger for e.g. people moving along the roadside. One reason for these problems can, among other things, be lies in the fact that the light is dimmed in one step directly, so that there are no other possibilities than "too bright light" and "too little light". There is therefore a desire to enable an adaptation and preferably also a regulation of the light so that it will disturb the driver of an oncoming vehicle as little as possible, while at the same time as much as possible of the roadway, especially in bends, as well as the surroundings remains illuminated.

Det har vært gjort flere forsøk på å løse disse problemer, særlig ved lysregulering. Av slike kjente anordninger kan nevnes en utforming hvor det benyttes mekaniske elementer, enten av reflekterende type med speil, eller utformet som et blendersystem. Det er videre kjent anordninger som ned-blender lyset over to eller flere trinn, uten at dette bringer en vesentlig mer gunstig løsning. Videre er det kjent å ut-styre kjøretøyet med lysømfintlige detektorer som avføler lysforholdene foran kjøretøyet og automatisk regulerer kjøre-tøyets lysstyrke. Ingen av disse kjente systemer har imidler-tid gitt et fullgodt, blendfritt kjørelys med samtidig opprett-holdelse av best mulig veibelysning. Several attempts have been made to solve these problems, particularly with light regulation. Of such known devices, mention can be made of a design where mechanical elements are used, either of the reflective type with mirrors, or designed as an aperture system. There are also known devices which dim the light over two or more stages, without this bringing a significantly more favorable solution. Furthermore, it is known to control the vehicle with light-sensitive detectors which sense the light conditions in front of the vehicle and automatically regulate the brightness of the vehicle. None of these known systems have, however, provided a fully satisfactory, glare-free driving light while simultaneously maintaining the best possible road lighting.

Den foreliggende oppfinnelse har derfor til hensiktThe present invention therefore aims to

å tilveiebringe en anordning med hvilken et kjøretøys lys er gitt en slik stråleretning og slike styringsmuligheter at lyset i minst mulig utstrekning vil sjenere møtende kjøre-tøys fører, samtidig som veibane, veikanter, svinger etc. to provide a device with which a vehicle's light is given such a beam direction and such steering options that the light will, to the least extent possible, disturb the driver of oncoming vehicles, at the same time as the roadway, roadsides, bends etc.

blir godt belyst.is well lit.

Denne hensikt oppnås ved en anordning som er kjenneteg-net ved det som fremgår av kravene. This purpose is achieved by a device which is characterized by what appears in the requirements.

Anordningen ifølge oppfinnelsen betyr at kjøretøyets lyskastere er anordnet slik at lysstrålene fra disse krysser hverandre, hvorved den venstre lykt vil lyse opp høyre veibane og omvendt. Møtende kjøretøy vil ikke være sjenert av den nærmeste, dvs. den venstre lykten i et slikt system, fordi lyset fra denne lysretning vil avvike fra kjøreretningen mot den høyre del av veien, mens den venstre del av veien, som belyses av den høyre lykt, vil kunne kobles ut i den grad det er nødvendig. Systemet med kryssende lyskastestråler vil også være fordelaktig ved kjøring i kurver, der lysstrålen fra venstre lykt ikke vil sjenere møtende kjøretøyer og en full avblending av begge frontlykter vil kunne unngås. The device according to the invention means that the vehicle's headlights are arranged so that the light beams from these cross each other, whereby the left lamp will illuminate the right lane and vice versa. Oncoming vehicles will not be shy of the nearest one, i.e. the left lamp in such a system, because the light from this direction of light will deviate from the direction of travel towards the right part of the road, while the left part of the road, which is illuminated by the right lamp, will be able to be disconnected to the extent necessary. The system of intersecting headlight beams will also be advantageous when driving in curves, where the light beam from the left headlight will not disturb oncoming vehicles and a full dazzle of both headlights will be avoided.

Oppfinnelsen skal i det følgende forklares nærmere ved hjelp av utførelseseksempler som er fremstilt på tegningen, In the following, the invention will be explained in more detail with the help of exemplary embodiments shown in the drawing,

og som viser:and which shows:

Fig. 1 - lysmønsteret foran et kjøretøy utstyrt med kryssende lyskasterstråler, rent skjematisk, og Fig. 1 - the light pattern in front of a vehicle equipped with intersecting headlight beams, purely schematic, and

fig. 2 - et detaljriss av en av lyskasterne på kjøre-tøyet på fig. 1. fig. 2 - a detailed view of one of the headlights on the vehicle in fig. 1.

Utførelseseksempelet på tegningsfigur 1 viser et spesielt tilfelle hvor et kjøretøy har to frontlykter som er utformet av flere enkeltstående lyskilder 1, 2 og 3 som er plassert ved siden av hverandre. Lyskildene 1, 2 og 3 i hver lykt har lysretninger som vil krysse hverandre i ønsket avstand a fra kjøretøyet og derved virke slik at det foran kjøre-tøyet dannes en belysning av lyskjegler som adderes til en samlet lysflate i ønsket avstad b foran kjøretøyet for så videre å skille lag i omvendt retning, dvs. at den lyskilde som er mest til venstre i kjøretøyets frontlykt lyser opp den høyre side av veien. The design example in figure 1 shows a special case where a vehicle has two headlights which are formed by several individual light sources 1, 2 and 3 which are placed next to each other. The light sources 1, 2 and 3 in each lamp have light directions that will cross each other at the desired distance a from the vehicle and thereby act so that the front of the vehicle is illuminated by cones of light that are added to a combined light surface at the desired distance b in front of the vehicle so that further separating layers in the opposite direction, i.e. that the light source which is furthest to the left in the vehicle's headlight illuminates the right side of the road.

I tillegg kan det være anbragt en nedre rad med lamper med en lav lysvinkel som tilsvarer vanlig kjørelys. Disse nedre lamper vil kunne overta automatisk ved nedblending etter-hvert som de øvre lamper slukkes. Det er også mulig å anordne systemet slik at den øvre og den nedre rads lyskjegler krysser hverandre også i forhold til horisontalplanet ved gitt avstand a foran kjøretøyet. Den nedre rad vil da fungere som fjernlys-system og den øvre rad som kjørelys. Ytterligere organisering av systemet kan omfatte en styring av samtlige lys, bortsett fra de midtre lamper i hver lykt for oppnåelse av en enda mer effektiv avblending. In addition, a lower row of lamps with a low light angle that corresponds to ordinary driving lights can be placed. These lower lamps will be able to take over automatically by dimming as the upper lamps are switched off. It is also possible to arrange the system so that the upper and lower row light cones cross each other also in relation to the horizontal plane at a given distance a in front of the vehicle. The lower row will then function as a high beam system and the upper row as driving lights. Further organization of the system may include a control of all lights, except for the central lamps in each lamp, to achieve an even more effective anti-glare.

En slik anordning av frontlysene med kryssende lysstrå- ler muliggjør et mer effektiv nedblending av lyset, samtidig som det oppnås en god belysning av veibanen, idet det ytre lys (nærmest veibanens midtparti) er rettet innover mot veikanten og således ikke vil blende motgående trafikk, samtidig som veikanten belyses effektivt. Samtidig vil dette lys markere kjøretøyets ytterkant på en effektiv måte. Such an arrangement of the headlights with intersecting light beams enables a more effective dimming of the light, while at the same time achieving good illumination of the roadway, as the outer light (closest to the middle part of the roadway) is directed inwards towards the edge of the road and thus will not dazzle oncoming traffic, at the same time as the roadside is illuminated effectively. At the same time, this light will mark the outer edge of the vehicle in an effective way.

Vinkelinnstillingen kan være fast, med manuell nedblending eller med et automatisk nedblending, f.eks. slik som beskrevet i norsk patentsøknad nr. 85 0900. Vinkelinnstillingen kan også være regulerbar, igjen enten manuelt eller auto-matiskt hvorved vinkelreguleringen kan styres av en lysfølsom detektor som registrerer lysforholdene foran kjøretøyet. The angle setting can be fixed, with manual dimming or with an automatic dimming, e.g. as described in Norwegian patent application no. 85 0900. The angle setting can also be adjustable, again either manually or automatically whereby the angle adjustment can be controlled by a light-sensitive detector that registers the light conditions in front of the vehicle.

Anordningen ifølge oppfinnelsen kan på enkel måte være utformet av det eksisterende lyktesystem, eller kan bygges opp av spesiallamper, f.eks. bestående av enkeltlyskastere plassert i grupper, slik som antydet ovenfor. Det vesentlige ved oppfinnelsen er således den kryssende anordning av lysstrålene fra lyskasterne, som altså også kan bestå av grupper av enkeltlyskastere, hvorved en forbedring med hensyn til blending av motgående trafikk allerede er oppnådd. En ytterligere eventuelt nødvendig nedblending kan selvfølgelig ut-føres manuelt, hvorved mange muligheter foreligger, såvel for blending av enkeltlyskastere, vinkeldreining og konvensjo-nell nedblending. Det ovenstående viser således kun muligheter for utforming av systemet, idet mange modifikasjoner ville være mulig innenfor oppfinnelsens ramme. The device according to the invention can be simply designed from the existing lantern system, or can be built up from special lamps, e.g. consisting of individual spotlights placed in groups, as indicated above. The essential aspect of the invention is thus the crossing arrangement of the light beams from the headlamps, which can therefore also consist of groups of individual headlamps, whereby an improvement with respect to the glare of oncoming traffic has already been achieved. A further, if necessary, dimming can of course be carried out manually, whereby many possibilities exist, both for dimming single headlights, angle rotation and conventional dimming. The above thus only shows possibilities for the design of the system, as many modifications would be possible within the scope of the invention.
