Abstract

This novel hazard-warning system which substantially increases safety in traffic and will be legally stipulated particularly for dense traffic, comprises the hitherto inadequate brake-warning system situated in the lower, often concealed region and the novel, additional brake indicator mounted at a higher point. In combination with the customary, lower pair of brake lights, after installation of the novel, third brake light positioned in the rear region, the determining light-scattering effect gives rise to an illuminated hazard-warning triangle, brought about by operating the brake pedal. This system is much more visible in town traffic as well as on A roads or motorways. This system makes a substantial contribution to the noticeable reduction in rear-end collisions. A high degree of marketability is assured owing to the existence of millions of vehicles. The cost factor per vehicle can be considered to be small in terms of the overall price.

Neuerung/BesonderheitInnovation / specialty

In Verbindung mit der tiefer angebrachten 2-fachen Bremsleuchtenkombination entsteht beim Bremsen infolge Stromzufuhr ein erkennbares - Warndreieck -.In conjunction with the lower one A double brake light combination is created a noticeable when braking due to power supply - Warning triangle -.

Die DBL-Leuchte kann auf der Ablage hinten oder an der Innenseite der Fondsscheibe angebracht werden.The DBL light can be placed on the back shelf or attached to the inside of the rear window will.

Die höher liegende Bremsleuchte erhält 2 getrennte Zuleitungen für ständige Betriebsbereitschaft, auch bei Ausfall 1 Leuchte.The higher brake light receives 2 separate supply lines for permanent operational readiness, even if one lamp fails.

Wegen der erheblichen Verbesserung der Verkehrssicherheit ist mit einer späteren gesetzlichen Forderung dieses Systems zu rechnen.Because of the significant improvement in traffic safety is legal with a later Requirement of this system.

Bei Ausfall einer oder beider "üblicher" unterer Bremsleuchten sowie denkbarer Verdeckung sind Auffahrunfälle die risikoreichen Folgen. Weiterhin ist bei dichtem Auffahren speziell im Stadtverkehr infolge unterschiedlicher Fahrzeughöhen die bisherige Bremsanlagenleuchtenkombination oft verdeckt.If one or both of the "more common" fail lower brake lights and conceivable cover rear-end collisions are the most risky Consequences. Furthermore, when driving up tight especially in urban traffic as a result different vehicle heights the previous one Brake system light combination often concealed.

Claims (1)

Bremsleuchtensystem für Fahrzeuge, insbesondere Kraftfahrzeuge aller Art, angebracht an der Fahrzeugrückseite. Durch diese Anordnung wird eine wesentlich erhöhte Verkehrssicherheit und eine viel weiter sichtbare Bremsenbetätigung erreicht.
Neben den üblichen unteren 2 Bremslichtpaaren an den Außenkanten der Fahrzeugrückseiten ist dieses System dadurch gekennzeichnet, daß es als zusätzliche 3. Bremsleuchte in einem Haltesystem im Bereich der Fondsscheibe, gem. Zeichnung, angebracht ist.
Durch diese Anordnung wird ein bestimmter Lichtstreueffekt erzielt, der ein unverwechselbares Warndreieck aus Lichtquellen erzeugt, hervorgerufen bei Betätigung der Fahrzeugbremsen.Brake light system for vehicles, in particular motor vehicles of all kinds, attached to the rear of the vehicle. With this arrangement, a substantially increased traffic safety and a much more visible brake application is achieved.
In addition to the usual lower 2 brake light pairs on the outer edges of the rear of the vehicle, this system is characterized in that it is used as an additional 3rd brake light in a holding system in the area of the rear window, acc. Drawing, is attached.
This arrangement achieves a certain light scattering effect, which generates a distinctive warning triangle from light sources, which is produced when the vehicle brakes are actuated.
