Description

Filed Dec. 1, 1960 OSCILLATOR OSCILLATOR MULT.
INVENTOR. Duane E. Atkinson Attorneys United States Patent 3,173,136 VARIABLE VOLUME HORN SYSTEM Duane E. Atkinson, 102 Fey Drive, Burlingame, Calif. Filed Dec. 1, 1960, Ser. No. 73,052 5 Claims. (Cl. 340-384) The invention relates to horn systems and more particularly to horns for vehicles which may be used in areas having variable noise levels.
In many applications horns are utilized in vehicles as a warning device not only for normal forward driving of the vehicle, but also when backing up. In most applications, horns of predetermined volume are chosen. Such horns are ordinarily adequate. However, in many areas, for example when back-up warning horns are employed on heavy construction projects, the noise level of the environment is sufficiently high that the sound of the horn cannot be readily distinguished. If an exceedingly loud horn were utilized on the vehicles in such application, its use would be obnoxious during operation in quieter areas.
It is, therefore, an object of this invention to provide an improved horn wherein the volume of the horn is automatically variable depending upon the background noise level.
It is a more particular object of this invention to provide a horn of the above mentioned character wherein a variable output amplifier is utilized to vary the volume of the horn.
It is another object of this invention to provide an automatic controlled horn wherein a microphone is alternately used with the horn to determine background noise.
It is another object of this invention to provide an automatic volume horn wherein the horn itself is alternately used as a horn and a microphone for determining the background noise.
These and other features and objects of the invention will become more clearly apparent upon reading the following description in conjunction with the accompanying drawing in which:
FIGURE 1 is a schematic diagram of one embodiment of the invention employing a horn and a microphone alternately utilized to sound a signal and monitor the background noise; and
FIGURE 2 is a schematic diagram of another embodiment of the invention wherein a single horn is alternately used to sound an alarm and to monitor the background noise.
Referring particularly to FIGURE 1, an oscillator 11 is shown connected through a coincidence gate 13 and a variable output amplifier 15 to a speaker horn 17. An astable multivibrator 19 has one of its outputs connected as another input to the coincidence gate 13.
A pickup or transducer, for example, a microphone 21 has its output connected to a second coincidence gate 23 and a capacitor 25 to ground. The output of the coincidence gate 23 is also connected through the diode 27 as a bias input to the amplifier 15. The other output of the multivibrator 19 is applied as a second input to the coincidence gate 23.
In operation the oscillator 11 produces an output signal having the desired horn frequency. In one of the astable states of the multivibrator 19, the gate 13 is activated whereby the signal from the oscillator may be applied to the amplifier 15 for amplification. The output of the amplifier is then applied directly to the speaker 17 to produce an audible signal.
The microphone 21 continuously picks up not only the background noise but the signal produced by the speaker 17. The output of the microphone 21, being applied to the coincidence gate 23, is operable only on signal from the multivibrator 19. The multivibrator 19 permits only ice one of the gates 13 or 23 to be operated at any given time. Thus, the noise produced by the alarm or speaker 17 is not passed through the gate 23. Only the background noise is passed from the microphone 21 through the gate 23. The output of the gate 23 is rectified by the diode 27.
Capacitor 25 stores or integrates the background noise voltage rectified by diode 27 to provide an essentially steady bias voltage during the switching cycle of gates 13 and 23. This voltage is applied as a positive bias control signal to the amplifier 15. Thus, upon an increase in background noise, the amplifier 15 receives more positive bias thereby producing a higher output. It is seen that the volume from the speaker 17 is determined automatically by the background noise.
In the embodiment shown in FIGURE 2, the speaker 17 performs a function of both the speaker 17 and microphone 21 of FIGURE 1. Operation of the circuit of FIGURE 2 is identical to that of the circuit of FIGURE 1 wherein the element 17 acts as a speaker and a microphone alternately as determined by the multivibrator 19.
