?Sistema di sicurezza per ridurre la gravit? o evitare gli urti contro pedoni ed oggetti in attraversamento? ?Safety system to reduce gravity? or avoid collisions with pedestrians and crossing objects?

DESCRIZIONE DESCRIPTION

Centinaia di persone vengono uccise ogni anno sulle strade mentre camminano a piedi (e molte di queste durante un attraversamento sulle strisce pedonali). In buona parte si tratta di anziani e di bambini. Scopo della seguente invenzione ? quello di eliminare o almeno di ridurre sensibilmente il numero di questi incidenti. Hundreds of people are killed every year on the roads while walking (and many of these when crossing a pedestrian crossing). Most of them are the elderly and children. Purpose of the following invention? to eliminate or at least significantly reduce the number of these accidents.

Lo stato attuale dell?arte nel settore della sicurezza per evitare o ridurre i danni nell?investimento di pedoni o oggetti in attraversamento si basa sul preavviso per i conducenti dei veicoli della presenza di persone in attraversamento sulle strisce pedonali mediante segnalazioni per lo pi? ottiche poste ai bordi della sede stradale prima del raggiungimento delle strisce pedonali stesse. The current state of the art in the safety sector to avoid or reduce damage caused by running over pedestrians or objects crossing is based on warning vehicle drivers of the presence of people crossing pedestrian crossings by means of signalling, mostly optics placed at the edge of the roadway before reaching the pedestrian crossings themselves.

Inoltre e indipendentemente dalla presenza di strisce per l?attraversamento pedonale, su alcune vetture sono istallati sensori di varia natura e caratteristiche che rilevano la presenza di persone od oggetti sulla sede stradale e che producono segnalazioni ottiche per i conducenti dei mezzi. Furthermore and independently of the presence of pedestrian crossing lines, sensors of various types and characteristics are installed on some vehicles which detect the presence of people or objects on the roadway and which produce optical signals for the drivers of the vehicles.

In quest?ultimo caso tutti i dispositivi evidenziati sono rivolti al conducente del veicolo che pu? vedere il pedone in attraversamento e che viene preavvertito del pericolo al fine di porre in essere misure utili ad evitare il sinistro o almeno di ridurne la gravit?. In the latter case, all the highlighted devices are aimed at the driver of the vehicle who can? see the pedestrian crossing and who is forewarned of the danger in order to put in place useful measures to avoid the accident or at least to reduce its severity.

Nessun dispositivo ? stato previsto nel caso in cui si ? in assenza o in presenza di strisce pedonali con il pedone che inizia l' attraversamento coperto da altri mezzi in sosta e che pu? comparire alla vista del conducente del veicolo sopraggiungente senza che il conducente stesso abbia a disposizione tempi e spazi sufficienti per evitare il sinistro o ridurne le conseguenze frenando o deviando il mezzo. No device ? been expected in case you ? in the absence or in the presence of pedestrian crossings with the pedestrian who begins the crossing covered by other parked vehicles and who can? appear in sight of the driver of the oncoming vehicle without the driver himself having sufficient time and space available to avoid the accident or reduce its consequences by braking or diverting the vehicle.

Il dispositivo qui descritto supera la carenza sopra evidenziata consentendo al conducente del mezzo sopraggiungente di essere allertato con segnali luminosi e sonori tempestivamente della futura visione del pedone in attraversamento sia in presenza che in assenza di strisce pedonali. The device described here overcomes the deficiency highlighted above by allowing the driver of the oncoming vehicle to be promptly alerted with light and sound signals of the future vision of the crossing pedestrian both in the presence and in the absence of pedestrian crossings.

Infatti, la soluzione proposta consiste nel dotare i mezzi, che possono in sosta o meno nascondere parte delle strisce o del fondo stradale, di sensori di varia natura che rilevano la presenza ed il movimento nell?area da loro coperta e non visibile per i mezzi sopraggiungenti. In fact, the proposed solution consists in equipping the vehicles, which may or may not hide part of the strips or the road surface, with sensors of various kinds which detect the presence and movement in the area covered by them and not visible to the vehicles arriving.

I segnali luminosi e sonori sono prodotti a seguito dei rilevamenti dei detti sensori sui mezzi antecedenti a favore dei mezzi subentranti i cui conducenti possono essere allertati dell?attraversamento del pedone che non possono rilevare direttamente essendo nascosto alla loro vista dai mezzi antecedenti. The light and sound signals are produced following the detections of said sensors on the antecedent means in favor of the incoming means whose drivers can be warned of the crossing of the pedestrian which they cannot directly detect as it is hidden from their sight by the antecedent means.

Secondo la presente invenzione il dispositivo ? di uso universale e compatibile con qualsivoglia mezzo di trasporto per quanto attiene alla sua installazione normalmente localizzata al di sotto degli specchietti retrovisori e comunque di elementi in aggetto rispetto alla carrozzeria. According to the present invention the device ? for universal use and compatible with any means of transport as regards its installation, normally located under the rear-view mirrors and in any case of overhanging elements with respect to the bodywork.

Il dispositivo, in quanto dotato di lampeggiante e cicalino sonoro, dovr? essere collegato all?impianto elettrico del veicolo che lo ospita o in alternativa potr? essere alimentato autonomamente mediante apposita batteria. The device, as it is equipped with a flashing light and audible buzzer, will have to be connected to the?electrical system of the vehicle that hosts it, or alternatively it could? be powered independently by means of a special battery.

La Fig. 1 e la Fig, 2 mostrano un esempio applicativo del sistema proposto. Fig. 1 and Fig. 2 show an application example of the proposed system.

Nella Fig. 1 si mostrano i pedoni 1 e 2 in fase di attraversamento del veicolo 3 ove lo specchietto retrovisore 4 ospita i dispositivi di allertamento con la proizione al suolo dell?immagine luminosa 5. Fig. 1 shows pedestrians 1 and 2 crossing the vehicle 3 where the rear-view mirror 4 houses the warning devices with the projection of the luminous image 5 on the ground.

Nella Fig. 2 si evidenzia lo specchietto retrovisore 4 con il cicalino rumoroso 9, il proiettore 6 e gli emettitori 7 e 8 di luce rossa lampeggiante. Fig. 2 shows the rear-view mirror 4 with the loud buzzer 9, the projector 6 and the red flashing light emitters 7 and 8.

Altre forme applicative del sistema possono essere adattate a veicoli diversi per caratteristiche e dimensioni e altri dispositivi di rilevamento e segnalazione possono essere applicati anche in aggiunta a quelli proposti segnalando (art. 52, comma 3 bis del Codice della Propriet? Industriale D.L.vo n. 30 del 10.02.2005 modificato dall?art. 29 del D.L.vl n.33 del 13.01.2010) che ogni elemento equivalente a quello indicato nelle rivendicazioni ? soggetto al brevetto proposto. Other application forms of the system can be adapted to vehicles with different characteristics and dimensions and other detection and signaling devices can also be applied in addition to those proposed by signaling (art. 52, paragraph 3 bis of the Industrial Property Code Legislative Decree n. 30 of 02.10.2005 amended by art. 29 of Legislative Decree n.33 of 01.13.2010) that each element equivalent to that indicated in the claims ? subject to the proposed patent.
