Abstract

An optical positioning device is intended to permit a vehicle to be driven precisely onto a parking space, for example in a garage. The positioning device consists of a light source (24) which is attached in the vehicle and directs a sharply focused beam forwards or rearwards, and of a target mark (2) which is attached in a fixed position, for example on the garage wall (1). <IMAGE>

Description

Optische Positioniereinrichtung zum Abstellen von Fahrzeugen Optical positioning device for parking vehicles

Beschreibung Es ist eine bekannte Tatsache, daß bei engen Raumverhältnissen in einzel, -doppel und Tiefgaragen das positionieren eines Fahrzeuges oft hohe Sachschäden an Karosserien entstehen können. Description It is a known fact that in tight spaces Positioning a vehicle in single, double and underground garages often causes high property damage can arise on car bodies.

Um dieses Positonieren zu vereinfachen wird erfindungsgemäß vorgeschlagen an den Fahrzeugen und Garagen sowie Abstellplätzen folgende Einrichtungen zu installieren, die an Hand von Fig. 1, 2 und 3 beschrieben werden.In order to simplify this positioning, it is proposed according to the invention to install the following equipment on vehicles, garages and parking spaces, which are described with reference to FIGS. 1, 2 and 3.

Fig. 1. Leuchte mit hoher Lichtdichte installiert an front- und Rückseite des Fahrzeuges in Drauf- und Seitenansicht.Fig. 1. Luminaire with high light density installed on the front and rear of the vehicle in top and side views.

Fig. 2. Zielmarke bestehend aus reflektierend drei verschieden farbigen Ringen befestigt auf einem vertikalen z.B. 3 cm br.Fig. 2. Target mark consisting of three differently colored reflective elements Rings attached to a vertical e.g. 3 cm wide.

und 2,5 m langem Streifen Das,anpeilen der Positonierlampe auf das Symbol bzw. die fritte der Zielmarke garantiert ein problemloses Positionieren eines jeden Fahrzeuges.and 2.5 m long strip Das, aiming the positioning lamp on the The symbol or the frit of the target mark guarantees problem-free positioning of a every vehicle.
