Definitions
- the present invention is in the field of the safety of persons, more particularly the isolated worker.
- DATI Isolated Worker Alert Devices
- the present invention has the purpose of mitigating at least part of these disadvantages.
- a device for checking the presence of a DATI on an isolated worker intended to be installed in a vehicle intended to be used by said isolated worker.
- This device is particular in that it comprises a presence detector of said DATI, a detector of use of said vehicle corresponding for example to the ignition state of said vehicle, and a logic means comprising an alarm configured to be activated. if the presence detector of said DATI is activated and the vehicle usage detector is not.
- said logic means may further comprise an activated alarm if the presence detector of a DATI is not activated and the vehicle usage detector is activated, thereby also reducing the risk of forgetting the DATI at home when the user gets into his vehicle
- said device may include a sound transmitter adapted to receive the information that said alarm is activated and to emit a sound of a nature to attract the attention of said isolated worker; such a sound may sound like those used to attract the attention of a driver that his belt is not attached for example, which makes him do what it takes to stop the sound,
- said logic means may comprise a first alarm configured to be activated immediately when the conditions are met, and connected to a first sound transmitter configured to attract attention discreetly, and a second alarm activated after a predetermined time of activation of the first alarm to allow the isolated worker time to take his DATI, and connected to a second transmitter sound configured to emit a stronger signal, able to attract the attention of the isolated worker even if it has already left the vehicle; such a provision allows discrete inducement, followed in case of forgetfulness or negligence of a more muscular reminder, which eliminates any risk of unintentional forgetting,
- said device may comprise a receptacle provided with a means for holding a DATI in place in a position detectable by the DATI detection means, thus allowing a satisfactory storage of the DATI during a journey of the vehicle,
- said holding means in place may comprise a suction foam strip, allowing easy insertion and removal by the user
- said detection means of a DATI may be an RFID antenna
- said DATI may be equipped with an RFID tag, constituting a simple solution and for which only the part attached to the vehicle requires a power supply, the addition of an RFID tag on a DATI then being extremely simple
- said DATI detecting means may be a Bluetooth transceiver configured to detect said DATI, enabling operation of the device without precise location of the DATI in the vehicle.
- the present invention also relates to a method for controlling the presence of a DATI on an isolated worker, by a device according to the invention, and comprising the following steps:
- said method may further comprise a step of generating a second alarm in the case where the alarm remains activated beyond a predetermined duration.
- the advantage of the present invention lies mainly in that it becomes very unlikely that the user forgets his DATI. His personal security is improved.
- the employer has with the invention a tool to improve the safety of his employee, as well as in particular embodiments, evidence recorded that he made every effort to ensure that the employee had his DATI on him.
- FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a receptacle of a device according to the invention
- FIG. 2 is a side view of a device according to the invention with the receptacle of FIG. 1.
- control device comprises a receptacle 1 with a holding means 2, 3 of the DATI 4.
- the holding means 2, 3 may consist of one or two strips 2 in a suction foam having the property of adhering to the plastic of the DATI shell while allowing it to take off without excessive effort.
- such a holding means may be a cover 3 covering the opening of the lower part of the receptacle, sufficient to maintain the DATI 4, but leaving enough open space to allow the setting in place or withdrawal of DATI 4.
- An RFID antenna 5 is disposed for example under the deposition face of the receptacle 1, and an RFID tag 6 is disposed on the DATI 4.
- the antenna 5 is configured to detect the tag 6, which is pressed against the depositing face of the receptacle 1, or on another face of the DATI 4; thus the DATI 4 can be detected even if it is placed upside down in the receptacle 1.
- the detection of the DATI 4 can also be done by bluetooth, in which case it is not essential to provide a receptacle.
- An induction battery charging device can be provided on the receptacle 1, and the DATI 4 can be provided for induction charging. In this case, this provision can also be used for detecting the presence or absence of the DATI 4, as well as its identification.
- a buzzer 7 and a speaker 8 are arranged on the receptacle 1.
- said buzzer 7 and / or speaker 8 can also be replaced by an output connected to the buzzer and horn of the vehicle.
- the device finally comprises an electronic card, provided with logic means able to process the information received, and to activate either the buzzer 7 or the speaker 8 according to the information received.
- An indentation 9 may be arranged on the sides of the receptacle 1 to facilitate the entry of the DATI 4.
- a tilt adjustment mechanism 10 may be arranged under the receptacle, consisting for example of an upper hinge 1 1 fixed under the receptacle 1, and provided with two fixing holes 12, and a lower hinge 13 fixed on a carrier 15 of the vehicle, and provided with a fixing hole 12 and a circular groove 14 for tilting adjustment.
- the buzzer 7 is started, such as a buzzer signaling the forgetting of a light on or ignition key in the vehicles. As soon as the worker puts the ignition on the vehicle, the buzzer 7 stops. He can then go to the place of his work. As soon as it stops the vehicle contact, the buzzer 7 starts again, until it removes the DATI 4 receptacle.
- the worker forgets to remove the DATI 4 when leaving his vehicle, it is first reported by the buzzer 7. If it still does not remove after a delay of a few seconds, for example ten seconds, the top speaker 8 is activated, with a loud and annoying sound for the ear. You can also replace such noisy sound with a blinking of the headlights of the car. The skilled person will adapt the manifestation of such an alarm circumstances. In any case it must be such that it is not possible for the worker not to notice it. The worker has of course the possibility of not obeying, or to withdraw the DATI 4 and put it elsewhere in the car. The device is not a guarantee that the worker has his DATI 4 on him, but rather a weapon against forgetfulness and distraction.
- the electronic card also comprises means for storing event information, such as starting the car contact, placing the DATI 4 in the receptacle 1, the duration of the buzzer 7, and triggering.
- the device may, if considered desirable, further comprise a transmitter capable of sending a message to a central or a predetermined telephone in the case where the speaker 8 is triggered.
- the device can furthermore record the dates and times of putting the vehicle in contact and stopping the contact by a time-stamping system, and may even include a geolocation, making it possible to record the place of the vehicle at the start and at the end of the contact on a logbook. It can then be an indication of the worker's actual working time during a period of on-call. It is also possible to configure the antenna 5 or the control means to recognize a well-identified group of DATI, for example those of the workers likely to use the vehicle, or qualified to use it. The device can then be coupled to an anti-start, which makes it possible to use the device as an anti-theft device for the vehicle.
