A lens 11 is attached.

In the example of FIG. 2, the headlight 10 is attached to a region below the center in the longitudinal direction of a plate-shaped member 12 having a trapezoidal shape in plan view, and the plate-shaped member 12 has a headlight 10 radiated in a motorcycle. It is attached to the lower side of the meter 13 so as to be in front of 200 (because the headlight 10 illuminates the front of the motorcycle 200). The headlight 10 is not limited to the above example, and a known headlight other than the LED can be used.

[Winker lamp 20]
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the

turn signal lamps

20 and 20 are formed in a circular shape in plan view as a whole. Inside the

turn signal lamps

winker lamp

20, 20 is for indicating the traveling direction (right turn or left turn) of the motorcycle 200 to the front (or the rear)). The

turn signal lamps

20 and 20 are not limited to the above examples, and it goes without saying that a known turn signal lamp can be used.

[Vehicle type recognition light 30]
As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the vehicle type recognition light 30 is a light that emits a color different from a color that is normally turned on, such as an automobile, so that the front one can easily recognize the running of the motorcycle. Is possible.

Specifically, in the present embodiment, it is composed of two vehicle type recognition lights (30, 30) (there are a plurality of vehicle type recognition lights 30), and the whole is formed in a circular shape in plan view. Inside the vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30, LEDs (not shown) of different colors (for example, blue, purple, etc.) from the headlights mounted on an LED board (not shown) are provided, and the surface is transparent or emits light. A lens 31 that transmits color is attached.

The irradiation direction of the vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30 is such that the irradiation direction is in front of the motorcycle 200 and different from the irradiation area of the headlight 10 (or the irradiation area different from the irradiation areas of the headlight 10 and the turn signal lamps 20, 20). The plate type member 12 is attached to a forehead region above the center in the longitudinal direction (that is, the vehicle type recognition lights 30 and 30 are provided in the vicinity of the headlight 10).

At this time, it is advisable to mount the vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30 apart from the headlight 10 by, for example, about 5 cm. The outer diameters of the

In the above description, the irradiation direction of the vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30 is set to be an irradiation area different from the irradiation area of the headlight 10. However, the present invention is not limited to the above example, and it is clear that the vehicle type can be easily recognized even if the irradiation area overlaps with other lights. That is, by turning on a color different from the color of a light that is normally turned on by a normal automobile, it is possible to easily make the surroundings easily recognize that the vehicle is not an automobile, that is, a motorcycle.

[Brake lamp 40 and emergency notification lamp 50]
The emergency notification lamp 50 is a light emitting device installed in a lower portion of a seat of a motorcycle, a lower portion of a tank, or the like, and is a lamp for notifying surroundings of occurrence of an emergency such as a later-described fall, which is a fall detection means. Fast blinks when 70 detects a fall. Other lamps include a tail lamp (brake lamp) 40 that is turned on when the brake is applied.
[Fall detection means 70]

turn signal lamps

20, 20, and a headlight 10, a turn signal lamp 20, vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30 and a brake which will be described in detail later. The lighting control of the lamp 40, the emergency notification lamp 50, and the like and the lighting control peculiar to the fall detection are performed.

A central processing unit (for example, a one-chip computer such as a microprocessor) can be used as the control unit 150. The control unit 150 is provided at an arbitrary position inside the motorcycle 200 (not shown). However, avoid locations where the temperature rises significantly due to running.
In addition to these light emitting devices, an alarm output unit 170 that outputs an alarm sound is provided, and the alarm sound is output when an abnormal situation described later occurs. It is possible to notify the occurrence of a situation. The alarm sound output unit 170 outputs an alarm sound from the horn that the motorcycle always has. It should be noted that a sound output unit capable of outputting sound different from the horn may be attached.
Next, also with reference to FIG. 4, a method of controlling the light lighting device 100 of the motorcycle according to the present embodiment by the control unit 150 will be described.

[Control of Light Lighting Device 100]
(Control of headlight 10)
When the power switch 60 is turned on, the electric system is turned on, the control unit 150 is activated, and the control proceeds to the control shown in FIG. When the power switch 60 is turned “ON”, the process proceeds to step S1 in FIG. 4, power is supplied to the light lighting device 100, and the control unit 150 is activated.

Then, the control unit 150 supplies power to the headlight 10 and turns on the headlight 10 in step S2. When the power switch 60 is turned off, the electric system is turned off and the headlight 10 is turned off.

In the above explanation, the example in which the blinking control of the headlight is controlled by turning on / off the power switch has been explained. However, the present embodiment is not limited to the above example, and a headlight lighting control switch, which is separate from the power switch, may be provided to control the lighting of the headlight in response to the control of the switch. .. In this case, the lighting control of the vehicle type identification light described later can be always performed regardless of the lighting of the headlamp.

Note that power is not supplied when the engine (not shown) of the motorcycle 200 is not running. For example, when the power switch 60 is ON, a starter switch (not shown) or the like is turned ON. It is desirable to be activated by that.

(Control of vehicle type identification light 30 and emergency lighting control)
When the headlight of step S2 is turned on, the control unit 150 checks whether or not the fall detection unit 40 has detected the fall of the motorcycle in step S3 that follows. While the motorcycle 200 is traveling (while the vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30 are lit), when the controller 150 outputs a fall detection signal that the fall detecting means 70 detects that the motorcycle 200 has fallen, the control unit 150 outputs the fall detection signal. The control of 150 proceeds from step S3 to step S4, and performs light emission control for turning on all the light emitting devices included in the motorcycle including the vehicle type recognition lights 30 and 30 in an emergency state in a fall state.

That is, when the fall detection means 70 detects the fall of the motorcycle 200 (transition to the lighting state), the fall detection means 70 outputs a fall detection signal to the control unit 150, and the control unit 150 receiving this outputs the fall detection signal. , Headlamp 10, turn signal lamp 20, vehicle type recognition light 30, brake lamp 40, emergency notification lamp 50 for illuminating in an emergency to draw attention to the surroundings, all the lamps equipped with the motorcycle are flashed at high speed. Switch to a state (in this case, all light emitting devices are controlled to a blinking state in which a lighting period and a lighting period are alternately provided in a short cycle that can be recognized by humans (all lights included in the motorcycle are controlled to be lit). In addition to the above, by outputting an alarm sound from the alarm sound output unit 170, it is possible to auditorily inform the surroundings of the occurrence of an abnormal state.

Hereafter, this state (called "lighting in abnormal state"). As described above, the blinking control at the time of a fall when the motorcycle is in an abnormal state is desirably blinking at short intervals in order to give a feeling of tension and to draw attention to the surroundings. For example, the blinking at a high speed of 100 to 200 times per minute is performed so that the surroundings can recognize the states of the motorcycle and the driver. It is desirable to output a sound signal in a high temperature range or a sound signal in an audible sound range as the alarm sound.

On the other hand, if the vehicle is not in the overturned state in step S3, the control unit 150 proceeds to step S5 to turn on the vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30. At this time, the two vehicle type recognition lights 30 and 30 are turned on at the same time and are always turned on (in the state where the motorcycle 200 is traveling without causing an abnormal situation, the vehicle type identification lights 30 and 30). , 30 are lit in this way. Hereinafter, this lighting is referred to as "lighting in a normal state").

(Control of turn signal lamps 20 and 20)
When the tire lock is not detected in step S3, the control unit 150 proceeds to step S6 and checks whether or not the winker lamp switch 80 is operated. When the motorcycle turns left and then turns right, the turn signal lamp switch 80 in the turning direction is operated. When the winker lamp switch 80 is operated in step S6, the process proceeds to step S7, power is supplied to the winker lamp 20 corresponding to the instructed switch direction, and the winker lamp 20 is turned on.

That is, when the operation of the turn signal lamp switch 80 is an instruction to turn on the left turn signal lamp 20 of the motorcycle 200, the control unit 150 turns on the left turn signal lamp 20. On the other hand, when the operation of the turn signal lamp switch 80 is an instruction to turn on the right turn signal lamp 20 of the motorcycle 200, the control unit 150 turns on the right turn signal lamp 20. Then, the process proceeds to step 10.

On the other hand, in step S6, if the winker lamp switch 80 is not turned on, the process proceeds to step S8, and if power is supplied to the winker lamp 20, the power supply is stopped (stop lighting the winker lamps 20, 20). , Turn off.). Then, the process proceeds to step S10.

In step S10, it is checked whether or not the power switch 60 remains on, and if it remains on, the process proceeds to step S2. If the power switch 60 is off, the power is turned off in step S11.

The control of the light lighting device 100 of the motorcycle according to the present embodiment has been described above, but how it actually operates will be described.
First, the driver turns on the power switch 60 and then turns on the starter switch and the like to start the engine of the motorcycle 200. The headlight may be turned on by turning on the power switch 60 during traveling.

When the power switch 60 is turned on, the control unit 150 controls lighting of the headlight 10 and the vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30 (lighting control in a normal state). At this time, in the present embodiment, the headlight 10 emits white light, and the vehicle type recognition lights 30 and 30 emit light of a color different from that of the headlight 10, for example, yellow or blue light (headlight. The color of 10 is white, and the color of the brake lamp 40 is often red).

Then, the driver operates the accelerator of the motorcycle 200 to drive the motorcycle 200. At this time, since the vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30 irradiate an irradiation area in front of the motorcycle 200 and different from the irradiation area of the headlight 10, the vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30 and the headlight 10 emit light. A plurality of lights (a state in which three light streaks extend forward) are three-dimensionally projected on the oncoming vehicle of the motorcycle 200, the pedestrian, and the like.

Further, when the driver makes a right turn or a left turn, the driver turns on the turn signal lamp switch 80 and turns on the turn signal lamps 20 and 20 (as described above, turning on the

turn signal lamps

20 and 20 is controlled. Via the unit 150).

At this time, if the irradiation area of the vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30 is further set as an irradiation area different from the irradiation areas of the

winker lamps

20, 20, a plurality of lights emitted from the vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30 and the headlight 10 will be emitted. The state in which the three lines of light extend forward is combined with the light emitted from the

turn signal lamps

20 and 20, and is further stereoscopic with respect to an oncoming vehicle, a pedestrian, or the like of the running motorcycle 200. Will be projected on.

When the motorcycle 200 is in a fall state due to an abnormal situation that occurs while the motorcycle 200 is running and the driver suddenly brakes, the control unit 150 activates the fall detection means 70. This is detected via, and the headlight 19, the turn signal lamp 20, the vehicle type recognition light 30, the brake lamp 40, and the emergency notification lamp 50 are changed from lighting in the normal state to lighting in the abnormal state (high-speed blinking state). Switch.

As described above, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to more positively inform these persons of the existence of the motorcycle 200, so that the accident of the motorcycle 200 can be effectively prevented. Yes (as a result, the safety of the driver is sufficiently ensured).

In addition, in the present embodiment, a plurality of (two) vehicle type recognition lights 30, 30 are provided, so that a vehicle running in front of the motorcycle 200, a pedestrian, or the like is more likely to receive the “motorcycle 200”. "Attention that there is" (more light shows more attention to these persons). Therefore, by using the example of the present embodiment, it is possible to more positively inform these persons of the existence of the motorcycle 200. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the accident of the motorcycle 20 is effectively prevented. It is possible (as a result, the safety of the driver is sufficiently ensured).

In addition to these driver protections, the following unique operational effects can be provided. That is, in the present embodiment, when the fall detection unit 70 detects a tilt of the motorcycle 200 which is greater than or equal to a predetermined value and detects that the motorcycle 200 has fallen, all the light emitting devices including the vehicle type recognition light 30 are normally turned on. Since the lighting control is performed in a manner indicating an abnormal situation different from that (switching from "lighting in normal state" to "lighting in abnormal state"), the motorcycle 200 falls and the driver is left unprotected. It is possible to clearly and accurately notify the surroundings of the occurrence of an abnormal situation in which there is a high possibility that it is in the state of, without any time lag.

Therefore, if the example of the present embodiment is provided, even if the motorcycle 200 falls into an abnormal situation such as a fall, secondary damage to the driver (by avoiding a collision with an oncoming vehicle or a following vehicle, Since it is possible to effectively prevent a situation such as a collision with another vehicle), it is possible to further secure the safety of the driver.

Further, in the present embodiment, an LED is provided inside the headlight 10, the

turn signal lamps

20 and 20, and the vehicle type recognition lights 30 and 30, but for example, instead of the LED, a halogen lamp or A HID lamp (High Intensity Discharge Lamps) may be provided.

[Second embodiment]
In the above-described first embodiment, the vehicle type recognition light 30 is constantly turned on during normal traveling. However, the present invention is not limited to the above example, and for example, the lighting control of the identification light of the vehicle type at the normal time may be controlled from the constant lighting to the blinking lighting control.

When the lighting of the recognition light 30 in the normal state is configured to blink, the lighting control of the above-described first embodiment changes the lighting control of step S5 in the control of FIG. 4 to blinking lighting. Control. The blinking of the vehicle type recognition light 30 at this time is performed in a normal state, so it is desirable to blink at a slow interval so as not to give an excessive tension to the surroundings. For example, it may be configured to blink 50 to 100 times per minute).

In the emergency lighting control of step S4, the blinking lighting interval in the normal state is shorter, for example, about 150 to 200 times per minute (or the number of times of blinking may be increased). It is good to set. As described above, all the on-vehicle lights blink from the “lighting in the normal state” at a shorter interval (lighting in the abnormal state), so that the motorcycle 200 is in an abnormal state in the surroundings. Can be clearly and accurately notified.

[Third Embodiment Example]
In the above-described example of the embodiment, an example has been described in which the two (plurality) vehicle type recognition lights 30 and 30 are controlled to be illuminated at the same time during normal illumination. However, the present invention is not limited to the above example, and when a plurality of vehicle type identification lights 30 are arranged, it is not necessary to control lighting of each lamp at the same timing, and each lamp is lit at different timing. (For example, each vehicle type recognition light 30 may be blinked 50 to 100 times per minute, or one of them may be alternately turned on).

If this embodiment is configured in this way, the presence of the motorcycle 200 can be more actively notified to the surrounding people, and the accident of the motorcycle 200 can be effectively prevented ( As a result, the safety of the driver is sufficiently secured).

By configuring the present embodiment in this manner, it is possible to clearly and accurately notify the surroundings of an abnormal situation in which the motorcycle 200 has fallen. Therefore, if the present embodiment is configured in this manner, Even when the two-wheeled vehicle 200 falls into such an abnormal situation, it is possible to effectively prevent secondary damage to the driver (a situation in which the vehicle collides with another vehicle by avoiding a collision with an oncoming vehicle). It is possible (in addition, the safety of the driver will be secured).

As described above, since it is possible to clearly and accurately inform the surroundings of an abnormal situation in which the motorcycle 200 has fallen, even if an abnormal situation occurs, the driver's secondary damage (an oncoming vehicle or a following vehicle) By avoiding the contact with the vehicle, it is possible to effectively prevent a situation where the vehicle comes into contact with other vehicles, etc. (further, the safety of the driver will be secured).

Also, it is desirable that the color of the emergency notification lamp 50 be different from other lamps or a color that draws particular attention. Alternatively, the lamp 50 may be a particularly high-intensity lamp, or may be configured so that the light emission angle can be changed (for example, the light emission direction is rotated). In this case, a wider range of parties can be made aware of the abnormal situation.

As described above, some modifications of the present embodiment have been described so far, but it goes without saying that these modifications can be appropriately combined and applied.
Furthermore, in addition to the notification by light, an alarm sound can be output, and the occurrence of an abnormal situation can be notified to the surroundings even by an acoustic signal, which can further contribute to the safety of the driver. By using the horn that the motorcycle always has as this alarm sound, the existing sound source can be used.

As described above, according to the embodiments of the inventions related to the present invention, when the fall detection means detects that the fall of the motorcycle has become inevitable, the vehicle type recognition light is started. Since all the on-vehicle light emitting devices to be radiated in an abnormal situation occurrence mode that is different from usual, in the present embodiment, the fall of the motorcycle is clearly and accurately in real time without a time lag, You can inform others.

Therefore, according to the present embodiment, even if the motorcycle falls into an abnormal situation such as a fall, secondary damage to the driver (avoiding collision with an oncoming vehicle causes collision with another vehicle). The situation) can be effectively prevented and the safety of the driver can be secured.

It goes without saying that various modifications can be made in the example of the present embodiment without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
For example, if the driver can move to a safe place after the motorcycle falls and notifies the surroundings that an abnormal situation has occurred, or if the motorcycle can be raised and raised, an abnormal state is reported. It is desirable that a reset switch 90 capable of resetting the fuel tank is provided, for example, on the lower side of the fuel tank so that the normal state can be restored by operating the reset switch 90.
