Description

Die Erfindung betrifft ein Anforderungsgerät für eine Verkehrsampel, insbesondere für einen Fußgängerübergang, mit einem Gehäuse, das ein Basisgehäuseteil und einen Deckel aufweist, wobei in dem Gehäuse eine Platine mit einem elektrischen Schaltkreis und einem Mikroprozessor angeordnet ist, die mit einer Drucktaste oder einem Sensor verbunden sind, bei deren/dessen Betätigung ein Schaltvorgang auslösbar ist, mit der Folge, dass ein Freigabesignal (Grün-Phase des Übergangs) über eine bestimmte Zeitdauer erfolgt.The invention relates to a request device for a traffic light, in particular for a pedestrian crossing, with a housing having a base housing part and a lid, wherein in the housing a circuit board with an electrical circuit and a microprocessor is arranged, which is connected to a push button or a sensor are at the actuation of which a switching operation can be triggered, with the result that a release signal (green phase of the transition) takes place over a certain period of time.

Das Anforderungsgerät hat entweder eine Drucktaste, die von einem Fußgänger, der die Straße überqueren will, gedrückt wird, oder einen Sensor, der auf die Annäherung einer Hand des Fußgängers reagiert und das Signal auslöst, das den Schaltvorgang des Anforderungsgeräts zur Freigabe des Übergangs hervorruft. Das Anforderungssignal wird dabei zunächst an eine externe Zentralsteuerung des Anforderungsgerätes weitergeleitet, die die Verkehrsampel für den Fahrzeugverkehr auf "Rot" schaltet, woraufhin die für Fußgänger vorgesehene Ampel das Freigabezeichen (z. B. "Grün") abgibt.The requesting device has either a push-button that is pressed by a pedestrian who wants to cross the road or a sensor that responds to the approach of a hand of the pedestrian and triggers the signal that causes the switching operation of the request device to release the transition. The request signal is thereby first forwarded to an external central control of the request device, which switches the traffic light for vehicle traffic to "red", whereupon the traffic light provided for pedestrians issues the release signal (eg "green").

Das Anforderungsgerät kann mit niedriger Spannung von beispielsweise 24° oder 40 Volt betrieben werden oder aber mit einer höheren Spannung von 230 Volt. Wenn der Deckel des Anforderungsgerätes z. B. durch äußere Krafteinwirkung von dem Basisgehäuseteil entfernt wird, liegen die elektrischen Bestandteile des Gerätes nach außen frei. Wenn das Gerät mit einer Spannung von 230 Volt betrieben wird, besteht für unvorsichtige Personen, die in Berührung mit den elektrischen Bauteilen des Anforderungsgerätes geraten, eine erhebliche, lebensbedrohende Verletzungsgefahr. Außerdem werden die inneren Bestandteile des Anforderungsgerätes zum Beispiel durch Auftreffen von Regenwasser umgehend unbrauchbar. Das Anforderungsgerät ist mit fehlendem Deckel zudem unbrauchbar, da kein Schaltvorgang mehr eingeleitet werden kann. Dabei kann der unbrauchbare Zustand des Anforderungsgerätes längere Zeit bei der für Ampelanlagen zuständigen Stelle unentdeckt bleiben, so dass die notwendige Reparatur oder Ersetzung des Anforderungsgerätes lange Zeit auf sich warten lassen kann und die Verkehrssicherheit an dem Fußgängerübergang erheblich beeinträchtigt ist.The request device can be operated with a low voltage of for example 24 ° or 40 volts or with a higher voltage of 230 volts. If the lid of the request device z. B. is removed by external force from the base housing part, the electrical components of the device are exposed to the outside. If the device is operated with a voltage of 230 volts, there is a risk for careless persons who come in contact with the electrical components of the request device significant, life-threatening risk of injury. In addition, the internal components of the request device are immediately unusable, for example, by the impact of rainwater. The request device is also unusable with missing cover, since no switching can be initiated. In this case, the unusable state of the request device can remain undetected for a long time at the competent authority for traffic lights, so that the necessary repair or replacement of the request device long time can wait and traffic safety at the crosswalk is significantly impaired.

Der vorliegenden Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Lösung für dieses Problem anzugeben.The present invention has for its object to provide a solution to this problem.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by the features of claim 1.

Vorteilhafte Ausgestaltungen der Erfindung sind in den Unteransprüchen gekennzeichnet.Advantageous embodiments of the invention are characterized in the subclaims.

Die Erfindung sieht vor, dass in dem Gehäuse des Anforderungsgerätes ein Sicherheitsschalter angeordnet ist, der so mit dem Deckel des Gerätes zusammenwirkt, dass er bei entferntem Deckel selbstständig in seine Aus-Stellung versetzt wird, in der das Gerät abgeschaltet wird. Dies kann dadurch erfolgen, dass der Mikroprozessor ein Signal von dem Sicherheitsschalter empfängt und daraufhin selbst die Stromzufuhr zu dem Gerät unterbricht oder der Mikroprozessor gibt ein entsprechendes Signal an die externe Zentralsteuerung weiter, die ihrerseits die Stromzufuhr zu dem Anforderungsgerät unterbricht.The invention provides that in the housing of the request device, a safety switch is arranged, which cooperates with the lid of the device, that it is automatically moved with the lid removed in its off position in which the device is turned off. This can be done by the microprocessor receiving a signal from the safety switch and then interrupting even the power supply to the device or the microprocessor sends a corresponding signal to the external central control, which in turn interrupts the power supply to the request device.

Die Ausbildung ist vorzugsweise so getroffen, dass der Sicherheitsschalter über eine zugehörige Leitung mit dem Mikroprozessor verbunden ist. Das Gerät ist eingeschaltet, wenn der Deckel an dem Basisgehäuseteil befestigt ist, und ausgeschaltet, wenn der Deckel von dem Basisgehäuseteil entfernt ist. Infolge des Signals des Sicherheitsschalters leitet der Mikroprozessor entweder selbst oder über die externe Zentralsteuerung die Abschaltung des Stroms für das Anforderungsgerät ein.The training is preferably such that the safety switch is connected via an associated line to the microprocessor. The device is turned on when the lid is attached to the base housing part, and turned off when the lid is removed from the base housing part. As a result of the signal from the safety switch, the microprocessor initiates, either itself or via the external central control unit, the disconnection of the current for the requesting device.

Hierdurch ist sichergestellt, dass bei entferntem Deckel niemand in Kontakt mit stromführenden Bauteilen des Anforderungsgerätes geraten und sich hierdurch verletzen kann. Dies trifft sowohl für den Fall zu, dass beispielsweise durch Vandalismus der Deckel gewaltsam von dem Basisgehäuseteil getrennt wurde, als auch für den Fall, dass der Deckel entweder von Unbefugten von dem Basisgehäuseteil abgeschraubt oder aber von einem befugten Monteur abgenommen wurde, um einen Arbeitsvorgang in dem Anforderungsgerät auszuführen.This ensures that with the cover removed, no one can come into contact with the current-carrying components of the request device and thereby injure themselves. This is true in the event, for example, that the lid has been forcibly separated from the base housing part by vandalism, as well as in the event that the lid has either been unscrewed from the base housing part by unauthorized persons or removed by an authorized installer to execute the request device.

Wenn der Mikroprozessor - wie dies besonders bevorzugt ist - ein die Störung anzeigendes Signal an die externe Zentralsteuerung abgegeben hat, können zudem umgehend Reparaturarbeiten an dem Anforderungsgerät durchgeführt werden. Wenn das Basisgehäuseteil unbeschädigt geblieben ist, kann mit der Anbringung eines neuen Deckels der Schaden behoben werden, wenn die Bauteile im Inneren des Anforderungsgerätes unbeschädigt geblieben sind.If the microprocessor - as is particularly preferred - has issued a signal indicating the fault to the external central control, repair work on the requesting device can also be carried out immediately. If the base housing part has remained undamaged, the installation of a new cover can repair the damage if the components inside the request device remain undamaged.

In weiteren Einzelheiten wird vorgeschlagen, dass der Sicherheitsschalter einen Kontaktarm aufweist, der von dem Deckel in dessen Befestigungslage in die Ein-Stellung versetzt wird. In dem von dem Deckel unbeaufschlagten Zustand befindet sich der Kontaktarm in der Aus-Stellung des Sicherheitsschalters. Hierzu kann ein gelenkig angeordneter Kontaktarm durch Federkraft in die Aus-Stellung vorgespannt sein, oder aber der Kontaktarm kann aus einem elastischen Material bestehen und durch den Deckel in die Ein-Stellung gedrückt werden.In further details, it is proposed that the safety switch has a contact arm, which is offset from the cover in its mounting position in the on position. In the unencumbered by the lid state, the contact arm is in the off position of the safety switch. For this purpose, a hinged contact arm may be biased by spring force in the off position, or the contact arm may be made of an elastic material and pressed by the lid in the on position.

Weiter wird vorgeschlagen, dass der Deckel in seinem befestigten Zustand mit einem Vorsprung an dem Kontaktarm anliegt und diesen in der Ein-Stellung hält. Der Vorsprung kann von der Innenseite des Deckels vorstehen und beim Befestigen des Deckels auf den Kontaktarm auftreffen.It is further proposed that the lid rests in its fastened state with a projection on the contact arm and holds it in the on position. The projection may protrude from the inside of the lid and impinge on the contact arm when attaching the lid.

Zweckmäßigerweise ist in dem Gehäuse des Anforderungsgerätes eine zweistöckige Platine angeordnet, wobei sich der Sicherheitsschalter auf der oberen Platine befindet und sich mit seinem Kontaktarm bis nahe zu einer Seitenwand des Deckels unter dessen Vorsprung erstreckt.Conveniently, a two-tier board is arranged in the housing of the request device, wherein the safety switch is located on the upper board and extends with its contact arm to near a side wall of the lid under the projection.

  • FIG. 2 a cross section through the device according to FIG. 1 and
  • FIG. 3 a section of a block diagram of the request device.

Figur 1 zeigt ein Anforderungsgerät für eine Verkehrsampel, dessen Gehäuse aus einem Basisgehäuseteil 1 und einem Deckel 2 zusammengesetzt ist. Der Deckel 2 ist an dem in Figur 1 linken Ende mit einem vorderen Randabschnitt in eine Ausnehmung des Basisgehäuseteils 1 eingesteckt und an seinem in der Figur 1 rechten Ende mit dem Basisgehäuseteil 1 verschraubt. FIG. 1 shows a request device for a traffic light, whose housing is composed of a base housing part 1 and a cover 2. The lid 2 is on the in FIG. 1 left end with a front edge portion inserted into a recess of the base housing part 1 and at its in the FIG. 1 screwed right end to the base housing part 1.

In dem Gehäuse befindet sich eine zweistöckige Platine 3 auf deren oberen Teil ein Sicherheitsschalter 4 angeordnet ist, der über eine Leitung 7 mit einem Mikroprozessor 8 verbunden ist. Der Sicherheitsschalter 4 hat einen bis in die Nähe des Deckels 2 reichenden Kontaktarm 5, der bei montiertem Deckel 2 von einem an dessen Innenwand angeformten Vorsprung 6 in die EIN-Stellung gedrückt (und in dieser Stellung gehalten) ist, in der das Gerät eingeschaltet ist.In the housing is a two-storey board 3 on the upper part of a safety switch 4 is arranged, which is connected via a line 7 with a microprocessor 8. The safety switch 4 has a reaching into the vicinity of the lid 2 contact arm 5, which is pressed with the lid 2 mounted by an integrally formed on the inner wall projection 6 in the ON position (and held in this position), in which the device is turned on ,

Wenn der Deckel 2 von dem Basisgehäuseteil 1 entfernt ist, schwenkt der Kontaktarm 5 selbsttätig nach oben in die AUS-Stellung des Sicherheitsschalters 4, woraufhin der Mikroprozessor das Gerät abschaltet.When the lid 2 is removed from the base housing part 1, the contact arm 5 automatically pivots upward to the OFF position of the safety switch 4, whereupon the microprocessor turns off the device.

Figur 3 zeigt einen Ausschnitt aus einem Blockschaltbild des Gerätes. Der als "Vandalismusschalter" bezeichnete Sicherheitsschalter 4 ist über eine zugehörige Leitung 7 mit der zentralen Steuereinheit 8 verbunden, die entsprechend der Stellung des Schalters 4 das Gerät ein- oder ausschaltet. Weitere Einzelheiten der Erfindung sind aus der Beschriftung des Blockschaltbildes ersichtlich. FIG. 3 shows a section of a block diagram of the device. The designated as "vandalism switch" safety switch 4 is connected via an associated line 7 with the central control unit 8, which turns on or off according to the position of the switch 4, the device. Further details of the invention can be seen from the caption of the block diagram.

Es wird betont, dass die Erfindung nicht auf die beschriebene und dargestellte Ausführungsform beschränkt ist. Vielmehr sind alle offenbarten Merkmale auf jede sinnvolle Weise einzeln miteinander kombinierbar.It is emphasized that the invention is not limited to the described and illustrated embodiment. Rather, all disclosed features can be individually combined with each other in any meaningful way.
