Description

Dispositif d'avertissement lumineux de freinage intensif pour montage à l'arrière des véhicules automobiles Warning light for intensive braking for mounting on the rear of motor vehicles
La présente invention concerne le secteur technique des accessoires pour les véhicules automobiles, et plus particulièrement les automobiles elles- mêmes.The present invention relates to the technical sector of accessories for motor vehicles, and more particularly the motor vehicles themselves.
On sait que depuis plusieurs années est apparu, puis est devenu obligatoire, le montage d'un troisième feu rouge arrière indicateur de freinage (dit " feu de stop "). Ce troisième feu stop doit occuper une position centrale à l'arriére du véhicule, et relativement élevéeWe know that for several years appeared, then became compulsory, the fitting of a third rear red brake indicator light (called "brake light"). This third brake light must occupy a central position at the rear of the vehicle, and relatively high
Le but est double.The goal is twofold.
D'une part, la position élevée et centrale du feu permet pour un conducteur de déceler, au travers des surfaces vitrées du véhicule qui le précède immédiatement, le fait que le véhicule précédent freine. Son temps de réaction est ainsi notablement réduit.On the one hand, the high and central position of the light allows a driver to detect, through the glass surfaces of the vehicle immediately preceding it, the fact that the preceding vehicle brakes. Its reaction time is thus significantly reduced.
D'autre part, la position centrale et élevée du feu se trouve directement dans le champ visuel du conducteur suiveur, ce qui réduit, dans ce cas de figure également, son temps de réaction.On the other hand, the central and elevated position of the light is directly in the field of vision of the follower conductor, which also reduces, in this case, its reaction time.
Cependant, l'indication de freinage ne suffit pas à assurer la sécurité passive. En effet, l'intensité du freinage représente également un facteur important.However, the braking indication is not sufficient to ensure passive safety. The intensity of braking is also an important factor.
Il existe une différence fondamentale d'information, pour les véhicules suiveurs, entre un freinage léger ou moyen d'adaptation au trafic et un freinage d'urgence synonyme de risque immédiat de collision par l'arrière.There is a fundamental difference in information, for following vehicles, between light braking or means of adaptation to traffic and emergency braking synonymous with an immediate risk of collision from the rear.
Or aucun dispositif prenant en compte de manière satisfaisante ce facteur n'a été proposé à ce jour. Il existe en effet de nombreuses difficultés à résoudre, dont certaines concernent la sécurité. Il est en effet impératif que la fiabilité soit assurée à cent pour cent, ce qui n'est pas le cas des systèmes à bille, masselotte, bain d'huile et analogues proposés antérieurement, et il est également impératif que le nouveau dispositif ne perturbe pas le fonctionnement normal des feux stop.However, no device that satisfactorily takes this factor into account has been proposed to date. There are indeed many difficulties to be resolved, some of which relate to security. It is indeed imperative that reliability be guaranteed at one hundred percent, which is not the case with ball systems, flyweight, oil bath and the like proposed previously, and it is also imperative that the new device does not disturb not the normal operation of the brake lights.
Il faut également que le message d'alerte adressé au conducteur suiveur soit clair et efficace, et donc ne soit pas confondu avec ou dans d'autres indications lumineuses, notamment de freinage.It is also necessary that the alert message addressed to the following driver is clear and effective, and therefore is not confused with or in other luminous indications, in particular of braking.
L'invention vise donc un dispositif d'alerte, non pas simplement d'intensité de freinage (dont Fart antérieur donne de nombreux exemples) ce qui provoquerait trop d'allumages et donc banaliserait le dispositif jusqu'à le rendre inefficace (ce qui s'est d'ailleurs passé pour les feux stop actuels) mais un dispositif d'alerte ou d'avertissement de freinage d'urgence, c'est à dire un dispositif ne s'allumant que très rarement, en cas de freinage extrêmement brutal, à un seuil qui sera fixé par l'homme de métier selon des paramètres connus ou faciles à établir.The invention therefore relates to an alert device, not simply a braking intensity (of which the prior art gives numerous examples) which would cause too many ignitions and therefore would trivialize the device until it becomes ineffective (which s '' is also passed for the current brake lights) but an emergency braking warning or warning device, i.e. a device that only lights up very rarely, in the event of extremely brutal braking, at a threshold which will be fixed by a person skilled in the art according to known or easily established parameters.

Exemple de réalisation non limitatif :Non-limiting example of implementation:
Si l'on se reporte à la figure unique, on voit que le principe de fonctionnement st le suivant. Un " signal frein " SF (c'est à dire un signal émis lorsque la pédale de frein est actionnée, et/ou lorsque les feux STOP habituels s'allument), arrive dans l'unité de contrôle.If we refer to the single figure, we see that the operating principle is the following. A "brake signal" SF (ie a signal sent when the brake pedal is actuated, and / or when the usual STOP lights come on), arrives in the control unit.
Un régulateur de tension REG transforme la tension du signal en une tension de 5V. Ce signal est envoyé vers un accéléromètre qui, de par sa fonction, analyse les accélérations (notamment négatives au freinage, et notamment en cas de freinage intensif provoquant une très foret décélération, voire même en cas de choc).A REG voltage regulator transforms the signal voltage into a voltage of 5V. This signal is sent to an accelerometer which, by its function, analyzes the accelerations (in particular negative under braking, and in particular in the event of intensive braking causing a very decelerating drill, or even in the event of shock).
Le signal de sortie de l'accéierometres est envoyé vers un oscillateur contrôle en tension (VCO) , qui est un convertisseur tension / fréquence, et qui est couplé à un microprocesseur possédant une fonction de mémorisation intégrée (MEM).The output signal from the accelerometer is sent to a voltage control oscillator (VCO), which is a voltage / frequency converter, and which is coupled to a microprocessor having a built-in memory function (MEM).
L'intérêt de ce système MEM est qu'il mémorise la fréquence donnée par le VCO, de telle manière que, même après que le véhicule se soit arrêté, le troisième feu stop (F) continue à clignoter selon cette fréquence, tant que la pédale de frein est actionnée.The advantage of this MEM system is that it memorizes the frequency given by the VCO, so that, even after the vehicle has stopped, the third brake light (F) continues to flash at this frequency, as long as the brake pedal is actuated.
Le VCO dirige donc un signal de sortie carré, sous une certaine fréquence mémorisée en MEM, vers un composant de puissance P capable d'alimenter le feu (F). Ce composant P est essentiellement compose d'un transistor translateur de niveau, capable d'utiliser le signal basse puissance de sortie du VCO pour alimenter le feu (F) qui, lui, nécessite une puissance élevée d'alimentation pour fonctionner.The VCO therefore directs a square output signal, at a certain frequency stored in MEM, to a power component P capable of supplying the fire (F). This component P is essentially composed of a level translator transistor, capable of using the low power output signal from the VCO to power the fire (F) which, in turn, requires a high power supply to operate.
Cet exemple illustre le cas d'un feu (F) que l'on désire rendre clignotant lors d'un freinage d'urgence.This example illustrates the case of a light (F) that you want to make flashing during emergency braking.
L'invention concerne également toute utilisation, dans tout véhicule automobile, d'un dispositif tel que décrit ci-dessus. L'homme de métier saura bien entendu envisager d'autres variantes directement accessibles, et que l'invention couvre également, à la lecture de la présente description et à la lumière de ses connaissances propres. The invention also relates to any use, in any motor vehicle, of a device as described above. A person skilled in the art will of course be able to envisage other directly accessible variants, which the invention also covers, on reading this description and in the light of his own knowledge.
