Abstract

The device has two mini-cameras installed laterally in the ends of the bumpers of the vehicle whose images are transmitted to a television display in the cockpit. A changeover device in the cockpit is used to activate the right or left camera.

Description

Eine der gefährlichsten Situationen beim Autofahren ist die Ausfahrt aus einer Garage oder aus einem Parkplatz, wenn die Sicht auf den fließenden Verkehr durch am Straßenrand parkende Autos versperrt ist. Erst nachdem das Auto schon über einen Meter in die Farbahn ragt, kann der Fahrzeugführer oder der Beifahrer ankommende Fahrzeuge bemerken. Dann kann ein Unfall schwer vermeidbar sein. Das gleiche Problem ist auch bei der Einfahrt in eine Vorfahrtberechtigte Straße, wenn die Sicht durch parkende Fahrzeuge beeinträchtigt ist. Genauso gefährlich ist das Abbiegen nach rechts, wenn bis zur Kreuzung parkende Autos stehen und den Blick auf den Radfahrweg verbauen. Ein geradeaus fahrender Radfahrer ist für den Autofahrer erst dann sichtbar, wenn er schon mit dem Vorderteil seines Wagens im Radfahrweg steht. Nur für wenige Fahrzeuge, die ihren Motor nicht vor der Windschutzscheibe haben, gibt es dieses Problem nicht.One of the most dangerous situations when driving is the exit from one Garage or from a parking lot if the view of the flowing traffic through cars parked on the side of the road is blocked. Only after the car is over one The driver or the passenger can arrive meters into the color track Notice vehicles. Then an accident can be difficult to avoid. The same problem is also when entering a right of way street when the view is through parked vehicles is impaired. Turning to the right is just as dangerous when there are cars parked up to the intersection and a view of the cycle path obstruct. A cyclist driving straight ahead is only visible to the driver if he is already in the cycle path with the front part of his car. Only for a few Vehicles that do not have their engine in front of the windshield are available Problem not.

Nach dem heutigen Stand der Technik gibt es keine Vorrichtung, die die oben geschilderten Unfallgefahren verringern oder vermeiden würde.According to the current state of the art there is no device that does the above would reduce or avoid the described accident risks.

Der Erfinder schlägt deshalb folgendes vor:
In die Enden der Stoßstange des Autos werden auf der linken und rechten Seite Mini- Kameras fast unsichtbar eingebaut, und zwar so, daß ihr Bild die Gegend rechts und links vom Fahrzeug aufzeichnet. Das Bild wird auf ein Fernsehdisplay im Cockpit übertragen. Mit einem Umschalter kann der Fahrer vor kritischen Situationen die linke oder rechte Mimi-Kamera aktivieren und hat so Einblick in den fließenden Verkehr, wenn das Auto erst einige Zentimeter in die Fahrbahn ragt.The inventor therefore proposes the following:
Mini cameras are built almost invisibly into the ends of the bumper of the car on the left and right, so that their image records the area to the right and left of the vehicle. The image is transferred to a television display in the cockpit. With a switch, the driver can activate the left or right Mimi camera before critical situations and thus has an insight into the flowing traffic when the car only protrudes a few centimeters into the road.

Diese Einrichtung würde bestimmt dazu beitragen, Verkehrsunfälle zu vermeiden.This facility would certainly help to avoid traffic accidents.
