Description

Front brake light device for vehicles.

The present invention relates to a front light device for vehicles, resulting in a advantage in the use of these, since it serves to warn of braking the preceding vehicles, thus improving road safety.

Field of the Invention

The invention can be classified within the field of signaling devices for vehicles in general, in particular of the devices whose main object is generate signals to facilitate driving to other vehicles, in Special to indicate braking.

Background of the invention

The number of accidents by scope is known of vehicles when braking takes place on highways or motorways. The subsequent scopes produced in traffic lights or stops of cities and exits of some roads, which they usually cause serious cervical injuries, in addition to the damage materials.

The interest of the Directorate is also known General Traffic to avoid these accidents, with the placement of the gallons, which are beginning to draw in different ways to criteria of this General Traffic Directorate.

However, these brands or gallons painted on the pavement often doesn't get enough attention, Well, in normal gait, when there are no sudden stops be used

On the other hand, the known configuration of braking light devices in which the signaling lights they are only placed at the rear of the vehicles, warn only the vehicles behind.

The device configuration advantage of stop lights of the invention is that when configured with signaling lights on the front of the vehicle, too warns the driver of the preceding vehicle, that when looking through from the rearview mirror to the vehicle that is driving behind, you will well have the peace of mind knowing that this vehicle is holding back at the moment precise, it may well depart to avoid suffering a range.

Description of the invention

The front brake light device for vehicles of the invention is an improved configuration of signaling devices to indicate braking in the vehicles.

The devices known in the state of the technique, they comprise at least one electrical circuit that joins the battery of a first vehicle with signal lights rear to indicate braking, placed outside this first vehicle, at its rear, so that they are visible for a second vehicle that circulates behind the first vehicle, and a normally open switch that closes when the brake pedal. The improvement of the invention consists in giving a new configuration to this device so that you understand also a front signaling lights to indicate the braking, placed outside the first vehicle, in its part front, so that they are visible to a third vehicle that drive in front of the first vehicle.

The device with this new configuration you can have these front signaling lights placed on various areas of the first vehicle; for example:

?

in the optics forward,

?

in the front calender of first vehicle,

?

in the highest part of the front windshield of the first vehicle,

?

in the internal rearview mirror of first vehicle,

?

in the external mirrors of the vehicle.

In addition, this braking lights device front for vehicles can be configured as the configuration of the braking signaling device of all kinds of vehicles whose braking should be notified, such as:

?

cars,

?

trucks,

?

coaches,

?

motorcycles

You also have to keep in mind that these lights Front braking signals may be red, such as rear, or oranges, or other color that indicates "attention to braking ", and may also be switched on permanently or intermittent.

In this way, if a first vehicle carries installed the device of the invention, when the driver of a third vehicle brakes or is stopped at a traffic light, stop or traffic jam, You will be able to see if the first vehicle is still braking, since at the moment the driver of the first vehicle step on the brake pedal should come on not only the headlights rear signaling braking but also the lights of front signs that the vehicle would have, in one or several of the positions already indicated and that notify the driver of in front of his braking. This would be of great help to the driver of the third vehicle, which precedes the first vehicle, already that in any case you can know if the driver behind has noticed his presence, and in case he sees that he is not going to slow down, turn away.

Brief description of the drawings

For the best understanding of the invention, Two figures are attached:

Description of a preferred embodiment of the invention

To better understand the invention, a illustrative and non-limiting example of carrying out the invention.

A diagram of the configuration of the front brake light device for vehicles is shown in Figure 1. The device starts from the configuration of those known in the state of the art, comprising an electrical circuit (1) that links a battery (2) of a first vehicle with rear signaling lights (4) to indicate braking placed on the exterior of the first vehicle, at its rear, so that they are visible to a second vehicle that circulates behind the first vehicle and a switch (3) normally open but that closes when the brake pedal is operated. However, in the configuration of the device of the invention, there are also front signaling lights (5) to indicate braking, placed outside the first vehicle (6), at its front, so that they are visible for a third vehicle that circulates in front of the first vehicle
(6).

So, at any time the driver of the first vehicle (6) step on the brake, actuate the switch (3) that close the circuit (1), and not only the lights on rear signaling (4) but also signaling lights front (5). With this you are not only advised that the first vehicle (6) is stopping the driver for a second vehicle that circulates behind the first vehicle (6), but also the driver of a third vehicle that drives ahead of the first vehicle (6), which seeing the signaling lights front through the mirrors, well have the peace of mind of know that that vehicle is braking at the right time, well may depart so as not to suffer a range.

Several examples of positions where to place the front signal lights (5). These examples are not exclusive or limiting, and could place front signal lights (5) on several of these positions in the same vehicle, or in other positions in the part front provided they can be seen by a third vehicle that drive in front of the first vehicle.

In the examples in figure 2 these places They are:

?

in the front optics (5th),

?

in the front calender of first vehicle (5b),

?

in the highest part of the front windshield of the first vehicle (5c),

?

in the internal rearview mirror of first vehicle (5d),

?

in the external mirrors of the vehicle (5e).
