Definitions
- the present invention relates to the automobile manufacturing and automobile parts industry.
- a car indicator may seem like a trivial device; while the use of indicators, informs other drivers from movement of the car to the sides (left and right) and the driver of the car using the indicators reduces the other driver’s surprisal by his change of direction.
- the present invention is designed to solve the above problems, in which by changing the indicator lever of the car from 2 to 4 modes, the driver’s intention from using indicator, determined and prevents accidents and traffic.
- Lighting in vehicles like cars and motorcycles has an old history such that before addition of electricity to automobiles and other vehicles, there were some lighting tools in cars (such as Ford model T), these cars usually used carbide lights.
- dynamo was used in cars. Since 1920, dynamo was used in all cars as an essential tool. Brake light was used in cars since 1919, but the tail light has longer background and was used about 4 years earlier, in 1915. After the cars became popular and increscent in car drivers, using informer signals became unavoidable. Therefore, since 1940 car indicators were used in cars in order to show turning. Halogen lamps in 1960 and HID lamps in 1991 were introduced in Europe.
- auxiliary fog lamps In addition to main lights, some other lights such as auxiliary fog lamps and also day lights may place in front of the cars.
- the auxiliary fog lamps usually inserted below the main light and are yellow or white. In some countries, using auxiliary fog lamp in an unessential situation consider as a driving malfeasance.
- This invention relates to a two-step controlled car turn light having U-tum display function, wherein one further set of light is arranged around a car turn signal, which is composed of a plurality of indicator lights and surrounds the turn signal.
- the light set and the turn signal are driven by a two- step switch mechanism.
- the driver can utilize the first step in the two-step switch mechanism to drive the turn signal; and when the car is making a U-turn, the driver, after turning on the turn signal, can further switch on the light set to generate the effect of twinkling or horserevolving light style to signal the U-turn message to the cars coming or behind, to effectively make sure the traffic safety.
- Another invention with US7245209B2 which is granted 17/07/2007 in USPTO, named “U-tum indicator”.
- a U-turn indicator for motor vehicles having a light fixture housing and a plurality of light sources located therein.
- the housing is divided into a U- tum indicating region and a non-U turn indicating region, and the plurality of light sources located in the U-turn indicating region are lightable separately from the plurality of light sources in the non-U turn indicating region.
- the light fixture housing forms a light fixture housing for one of a left and right turn signal indicator on a front and rear of a automobile.
- the light fixture functions as one of a left and right turn signal indicator when the plurality of light sources in both the U-tum indicating region and the non-U turn indicating region are activated, and as a U turn indicator when only the plurality of light sources in the U-turn indicating region are activated.
- U-turn signal The next invention with US4994786A number, which is filed on 04/12/1989 in USPTO, named “U-turn signal”.
- a U-tum signal for vehicles which includes a plurality of lights forming an inverted "U", a flashing arrangement for sequentially flashing the lights to indicate the intended direction of the U-tum, and an actuating arrangement for actuating the flashing arrangement, and wherein the U-turn signal is positioned rearwardly facing from the vehicle.
- the actuating arrangement includes a u-tum switch located at the driver's location.
- U turn indicator Another invention with US20040263325A1 publication number which was published in 30/12/2004 in USPTO, named “U turn indicator”. According to this disclosure, this invention demonstrates that a U turn is taking place, by flashing, blinking, or displaying, a U turn symbol.
- Other art shows things like right hand turning indicators, left hand indicators, and or backing up lights.
- the U turn indicators art shows a blinking U in the middle of the regular car light, although that function can take many forms. No other art exhibits what our art displays, and that is a sign that a U turn is in progress. So to sum it up; our art is different because it is the only art that indicates a blinking, or flashing U for the purpose of displaying that a U turn is in progress.
- U-turn signal attachment An invention with US5003289A patent No., which is granted on 06/07/1990 in USPTO, named “U-turn signal attachment”.
- an auxiliary U- tum signal indicating light attachment having a generally U-shaped housing designed to be mounted on the lower left corner of the rear window of a vehicle, wherein an indicating light compartment encloses a U-turn signal indicating lamp.
- a manually operated switching apparatus for energizing the U-tum signal lamp is adapted for mounting on and interconnection with a conventional turn signal lever.
- a mounting bracket is pivotally secured to a rod slidably received within an apertured mounting tab within the housing, wherein a set screw associated with the mounting tab is utilized to secure the rod in a selected adjusted position.
- This invention relates to automobile turning signals of the general type having a plurality of translucent signaling members of colored glass or the like, to be selectively illuminated to indicate the driver’s intentions.
- the object of this invention is to provide a novel signaling device having a right-turn; arrows indicate turning to left or right, and a letter U indicates a U-turn, or a letter S to indicate that a stop will be made.
- the U is preferred but the S may be used in cities which prohibit U-turns.
- US4387361A patent No. which is granted in 06/07/1983 in USPTO, named “U-Turn vehicle light”.
- This invention is a signal device for indicating a U-tum of a motor vehicle mounted on the vehicle for movement between an extended position above the hood of the vehicle and a stored position beneath the hood.
- the signal device includes a housing mounted on top of a rack in meshing engagement with a pinion drivingly connected to a reversible electric motor.
- the signal device is supported by a U-shaped bracket which may be attached to the hood of the automobile by tack welds and is supported solely by the relatively thin sheet metal of the hood.
- the housing has an inverted U-shaped window to expose a bulb mounted in a socket within the interior of the housing covered by a colored lens.
- the bulb When the bulb is activated, the lens will transmit light through the window to indicate to oncoming motorists that the vehicle operator intends to execute a turn.
- the top of the housing When retracted the top of the housing is flush with the sheet metal hood.
- the present invention designing a four modes car indicator includes: turn to left or right and U turn to left or right.
- This design can be used only with a small change in the LED lighting system.
- the design is such that when the indicators are half-lit (oval), show the U turn operation, and when the indicators are fully lit (fully), show the turning.
- the indicator lever changes from 2 modes to 4 modes.
- the indicator lever has 4 modes, and with this small change, drivers are made aware of our decision when using indicators.
- This indicator works in such a way that when the lever is in the L (left) or R (right) position, the power is connected to 1A and 2 A ( Figures 5 and 6) and the whole LED lamps lights up (solid) and flashes, indicating the car is turning left or right.
- the list of four-mode car indicator circuit components includes the following:
- Tail light indicator
- Figure 1 shows the electrical circuit of four modes indicator, includes:
- Figure 2 shows the size of electrical board.
- Figure 3 shows the steering wheel position related to the Mode R or turning to right.
- Figure 4 shows the steering wheel position related to the Mode R1 or making U turn to right.
- Figure 5 shows the schematic image of the steering wheel position related to the Mode R or turning to right.
- Figure 6 shows the schematic image of steering wheel position related to the
- Figure 7 shows the image of 4 modes car indicator lever, includes:

Abstract
L'invention concerne un clignotant de voiture à quatre modes de virage à gauche/droite et de demi-tour vers la gauche/droite qui est un clignotant permettant d'informer d'autres conducteurs de la réalisation d'un demi-tour de 180 degrés vers la gauche ou la droite. Ce feu peut être utilisé avec un léger changement dans le système d'éclairage à DEL. La conception est telle que lorsque les clignotants sont semi-éclairés (ovales), ils représentent l'opération de demi-tour, et lorsqu'ils sont entièrement éclairés (pleins), ils indiquent le virage. Étant donné que le clignotant possède 4 modes, le levier de clignotant passe de 2 modes à 4 modes. Ainsi, lorsque la voiture tourne à gauche et à droite, le clignotant clignote sous une forme solide et lorsque la voiture effectue un demi-tour, le clignotant clignote sous la forme d'un ovale creux. Le nombre d'accidents dus à la surprise de l'autre conducteur lors de l'utilisation de clignotants est réduit au moyen de la présente invention.
