Signalling device for vehicles clearly differentiating between the intention to overtake and the intention to turn

摘要

The invention concerns devices with flashing signals to indicate changes in direction of motor vehicles and motor cycles /H0 It comprises: a generator 1 of signals having a regular flashing rate to signal overtaking and/or cutting back; and a generator 2 of signals having a rate differentiated by cyclic variations to signal the left and/or right turns. The switching of one of these generators 1 and 2 to the flasher lights located on the same side of the vehicle is controlled voluntarily by a deliberate means T to be operated by the driver and/or automatically by a braking control means L or by a decelerometer. This switching of one of the generators 1 and 2 is carried out by a device or devices M and L and/or by electronic and/or electrotechnical assemblies, 5, 6, 7 and 8. This device is intended to be fitted to all road vehicles to improve their safety. IMAGE
