Abstract

The outside edge of the housing (F) of the rear-view mirror (S) carries a qualitative indicator (I) under an approximately vertical column of contiguous LEDs (L). The indicator (I) gives warning of a rearward hazard such as an overtaking vehicle, whose relative speed is signalled by the number of diodees (L) illuminated. Alternatively, this number signifies either the distance or the relative spatial positon of the hazard. The brightness may be adjusted to ambient illumination. ADVANTAGE - Relevant information form monitored environment is conveyed easily to driver, esp. when required for manoeuvring.

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Anordnung zur Umfeldsicherung von Kraftfahrzeugen nach dem Oberbegriff des Pa­ tentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to an arrangement for environmental protection of motor vehicles according to the preamble of Pa claim 1.

Derartige Anordnungen sind besonders bedeutsam zur Überwa­ chung von Umfeldausschnitten, die vom Fahrzeugführer nicht eingesehen werden, beispielsweise der sogenannte tote Win­ kel von Außenrückspiegeln. Techniken zur Überwachung sind an sich bekannt und arbeiten im Regelfall nach dem Rück­ strahlprinzip unter Aussendung und Empfang von Mikrowel­ len, Infrarotlicht, Ultraschall und dergleichen. Aus der Auswertung der empfangenen, rückgestreuten Signale können Aussagen über das Vorhandensein von Objekten, z. B. anderen Fahrzeugen im Überwachungs­ raum, deren Relevanz für das eigene Verhalten sowie Meßwerte zu Parametern wie Entfernung, Relativgeschwindig­ keit etc. abgeleitet werden. Bekannt ist in diesem Zusam­ menhang, das Ergebnis der Auswertung im Armaturenbereich anzuzeigen oder einfach ein akustisches Warnsignal zu er­ zeugen.Such arrangements are particularly important for monitoring environment sections that the driver does not be seen, for example the so-called dead win of exterior rear-view mirrors. Surveillance techniques are known per se and usually work after the return beam principle with transmission and reception of microwaves len, infrared light, ultrasound and the like. From the Evaluation of the received, backscattered signals can Statements about the existence  of objects, e.g. B. other vehicles in surveillance space, its relevance for your own behavior as well Measured values for parameters such as distance, relative speed speed etc. can be derived. This is known together menhang, the result of the evaluation in the fittings area display or simply an acoustic warning signal to it testify.

Bei der Anzeige im Armaturenbereich ist aber außerhalb des für die Führung des Fahrzeugs besonders wichtigen Blick­ felds eine Anzeigeposition in der Umgebung mehrerer unter­ schiedlicher Anzeigen zu beachten, was eher ablenkend auf den Fahrzeugführer wirkt. Ein akustisches Warnsignal hat hingegen nur einen geringen Informationsgehalt.When displaying in the fittings area is outside of view that is particularly important for the guidance of the vehicle fields one display position in the vicinity of several different ads to note, which is rather distracting the driver acts. Has an acoustic warning signal however, only a small amount of information.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Anordnung zur Umfeldsicherung von Kraftfahrzeugen anzugeben, die eine leicht aufnehmbare Übermittlung von relevanten Infor­ mationen aus dem überwachten Umfeldausschnitt an den Fahr­ zeugführer ermöglicht, und zwar insbesondere dann, wenn dies für das geplante Fahrmanöver von besonderem Interesse ist.The invention has for its object an arrangement to protect the environment of motor vehicles, the an easily recordable transmission of relevant information mations from the monitored area to the driver Witness guide enables, especially if this is of particular interest for the planned driving maneuver.

Die Erfindung ist im Patentanspruch 1 beschrieben. Die Un­ teransprüche enthalten vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen und Weiterbildungen der Erfindung.The invention is described in claim 1. The Un Claims include advantageous refinements and Developments of the invention.

Die erfindungsgemäße Anordnung stellt die aus der Auswer­ tung der Überwachung abgeleiteten Ergebnisse in ergono­ misch günstiger Position in übersichtlicher Form dar, so daß beim Blick in den Rückspiegel eine mit dem im Rück­ spiegel sichtbaren Umfeldausschnitt in engem Zusammenhang stehende Zusatzinformation übermittelt wird. Dies ist von besonderem Vorteil, weil die Führung von Kraftfahrzeugen in erster Linie auf Sicht erfolgt. Durch die Anzeige der Information in dem für den Fahrzeugführer zur Sichtüberwa­ chung gewohnten Blickfeld in optischer Kombination mit diesem, ist auch eine eindeutige Zuordnung der Information zu dem jeweils zugehörigen Umfeldausschnitt sowie die Be­ achtung in der entsprechenden Situation gewährleistet.The arrangement according to the invention represents the Auswer the monitoring derived results in ergono mix favorable position in a clear form, so that when you look in the rearview mirror one with the one in the rear mirrored visible section of the environment in close connection standing additional information is transmitted. This is from  special advantage because the management of motor vehicles primarily done on sight. By displaying the Information in the for the driver for visual monitoring usual visual field in optical combination with This is also a clear assignment of the information to the associated area and the Be attention in the corresponding situation.

Bevorzugt Anwendung finden kann die Erfindung beispiels­ weise:The invention can preferably be used, for example wise:

  • a) bei der Überwachung des toten Winkels des linken Außen­ spiegels zur Anzeige des Vorhandenseins eines überholenden Fahrzeugs und evtl. dessen Relativgeschwindigkeit und/oder Entfernung und/oder dessen ungefähren räumlichen Position relativ zum eigenen Fahrzeug.a) in monitoring the blind spot of the left outside mirror to indicate the presence of an overtaking Vehicle and possibly its relative speed and / or Distance and / or its approximate spatial position relative to your own vehicle.
  • b) vor allem bei Lastkraftwagen auch zur Überwachung des rechts der Fahrbahn liegenden Bereichs zur Erkennung von Fahrrädern z. B. auf fahrbahnbegleitenden Radwegen.b) especially for trucks to monitor the area to the right of the lane for the detection of Bicycles z. B. on cycle paths accompanying the road.
  • c) bei der Überwachung des heckseitigen Nahfelds beim Ein­ parken zur Anzeige des Vorhandenseins von Hindernissen, insbesondere unterhalb der Hecksichtkante liegenden Hin­ dernissen und deren Entfernung im Innenrückspiegel.c) when monitoring the rear near field when on parking to indicate the presence of obstacles, in particular, lying below the rear view edge conditions and their removal in the interior rear-view mirror.

Die Anzeige ist vorzugsweise selbstleuchtend mit an die Umgebungshelligkeit automatisch angepaßter Leuchtkraft ausgeführt. Besonders geeignet sind Leuchtdioden. Eine be­ sonders einfache und übersichtliche Darstellung ergibt sich, wenn das Vorhandensein eines Objekts qualitativ durch einen unstrukturierten Leuchtfleck und seine Ge­ schwindigkeit und/oder Entfernung in Form einer zeilen- oder linienförmigen Anzeige, z. B. eines Pfeils variabler Länge oder einer LED-Laufzeile dargestellt werden, wobei die Länge des Pfeils oder die Anzeigestellung innerhalb der Laufzeile nach Maßgabe des ermittelten Meßwerts selbsttätig eingestellt wird.The display is preferably self-illuminating with the Ambient brightness automatically adjusted luminosity executed. LEDs are particularly suitable. A be results in a particularly simple and clear presentation yourself if the presence of an object is qualitative through an unstructured light spot and its ge  speed and / or distance in the form of a line or line-shaped display, e.g. B. an arrow more variable Length or an LED scrolling line, where the length of the arrow or the display position within the scrolling line in accordance with the determined measured value is set automatically.

Die Abbildung zeigt skizzenhaft einen Außenrückspiegel mit einem neben dem linken Rand der optischen Spiegelfläche S in die Spiegelfassung F integrierten Anzeigefeld zur Dar­ stellung des Vorhandenseins eines Objekts, beispielsweise eines überholenden Fahrzeugs im Überwachungsbereiches mit­ tels eines qualitativen Anzeigebereichs I und zur Anzeige der ermittelten Relativgeschwindigkeit des Fahrzeugs mit­ tels einer LED-Laufzeile L, so daß der Blick in den Rück­ spiegel auch dann über ein überholendes Fahrzeug infor­ miert, wenn dieses zeitweilig nicht im optisch erfaßten Bereich des Rückspiegels weilt.The illustration shows an exterior rear view mirror with a sketch one next to the left edge of the optical mirror surface S display field integrated into the mirror holder F for dar position of the presence of an object, for example of an overtaking vehicle in the surveillance area means of a qualitative display area I and for display the determined relative speed of the vehicle with tels of an LED running line L, so that the view in the back even then about an overtaking vehicle miert if this is temporarily not in the optically detected Area of the rear-view mirror.
