Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a rechargeable safety flashlight specially designed for use in potentially explosive atmospheres and therefore its use is especially indicated in firefighting services and even in mining.
  • the flashlight is designed for individual use and its main feature is that of its versatility for conventional manual use or as a lighting element mounted on the helmet.
  • flashlights are a fundamental tool in their work, which due to the extreme conditions in which it is carried out, They must have very special safety features, as well as technical performance at a professional level.
  • the smart rechargeable safety flashlight allows to perform the above-mentioned function, by having means that combined with others provided in the helmet, allow its easy coupling to it.
  • the safety feature of the flashlight is determined by the fact that it has two independent light sources, which ensure lighting in case of failure of one of them.
  • the operation of the flashlight is facilitated when performed with a large push button for high sensitivity contact, which makes this operation simple even in the case that protective gloves are worn.
  • the process of recharging the batteries is controlled by programmable electronic means, which guarantee that the recharging is carried out satisfactorily, and also inform in a detailed way of the state of charge each time the flashlight is turned on. In case the load is at a critical level, it gives a low capacity warning signal.
  • FIG. 1 is a front view of the flashlight reflector, which shows the main and auxiliary bulb.
  • FIG. 2 is a perspective view from above of the flashlight, in which the button and recharge contacts are shown.
  • FIG. 3 is a bottom perspective view, to show the clamp and the coupling boss.
  • FIG. 4 is a side perspective representation of the fork that fits the helmet.
  • Figure 5 is a perspective representation of the flashlight by inserting the clamp into the fork, to fit into the helmet.
  • FIG. 6 is a perspective view of the lighting cone attaching to the flashlight.
  • the lighting means of the flashlight are shown in Figure 1, the main bulb (2) located in the focus of the parabolic reflector, which projects a concentrated and deep beam of light. Out of focus, the auxiliary bulb (3) is available, which is independent of the main operation and power, and which projects a beam of light directed to the ground, which allows the user to see the area through which he walks.
  • the effect that the activation of the button (4), has on both bulbs (2) and (3), is controlled by a programmable electronic circuit, located inside the flashlight and powered by the same power batteries, which They are rechargeable by means of the three contacts (5), represented in figure 2, and by means of a suitable charger.
  • This electronic circuit also controls the recharging process of the batteries, informs about the discharge and the state of the batteries, as well as the performance of automatic functions that the invention can carry out.
  • the functions performed by the flashlight can be classified as: a) With manual operation. b) Automatic actions. c) Automatic information actions.
  • the functions with manual operation are those related to the normal operation of the flashlight to turn the lamps on or off, and it is controlled with a cycle of four successive presses of the button (4), as follows:
  • Another automatic function performed by this circuit is carried out during the recharging process of the batteries, causing that when the batteries have reached an optimum level of charge, the flashlight is automatically disconnected and goes into a maintenance charge function.
  • the automatic information actions are intended to inform the state of charge of the batteries, so that each time one of the two lamps is turned on, following the described pulsation cycle, the flashlight produces a proportional number of pulsations to the charge capacity of the batteries, following the following criteria:
  • the clamp (6) can also be used for fastening the flashlight in the user's belt.
  • the fork (7) shown in Figure 4 is fixed at the top of this, consisting of a metal piece folded on itself, preferably made of aluminum bronze for that has an elasticity appropriate to its functionality as a fork and so that it adapts to the surface of the helmet (13).
  • the arrangement of the fork (7) in the hull (13), can be seen in Figure 5, and is done by screwing through the holes (9) on a decorative element of the hull, in order not to pierce it, since otherwise you would lose your quality certification.
  • the perforation (8) has been opened in its fold, in order to introduce the clamp (6) through it and to the bottom, so that it is coupled inside the fork (7), to what is previously necessary to separate the clamp (6) from the flashlight body, pressing on the extension (16).
  • the separation distance between the two plates which forms the fork (7), is maintained with the fixing (12), so that the coupling of the clamp (6) in the fork (7) is enhanced.
  • the flashlight is arranged in the upper part of the helmet when the user needs it, constituting an autonomous light source in solidarity with him, leaving his hands free to be able to perform any task comfortably.
  • the lighting cone (14) can be attached to the base (1) of the flashlight, in order to make light signals.

Abstract

L'invention concerne une lampe de poche équipée de moyens nécessaires pour sa fixation à un casque et pour former de manière solidaire dans le casque une source de lumière autonome afin de laisser les mains de l'utilisateur libres. Cette lampe de poche est pourvue de deux lampes indépendantes. En cas de panne de la lampe en fonctionnement, la seconde lampe s'allume automatiquement.
