Abstract
Description
본 발명은 자동차 주행시 연료량이 기준치 이하가 되어 연료경고등에 불이 들어오는 경우 자동차용 연료경고등을 이용하여 운전자에게 연료 주유구 위치를 알리는 방법에 관한 것이며, 보다 상세하게는 종래의 연료경고등을 좌우로 이등분하여 연료경고등이 켜짐과 동시에 연료 주유구가 있는 쪽을 밝게 하고, 반대쪽은 약간 어둡게 하여 운전자가 쉽게 연료 주유구 위치를 알 수 있도록 하는 방법이다.The present invention relates to a method of informing a driver of fuel injection position using a fuel warning lamp for an automobile when the fuel warning light is turned on when the amount of fuel is lower than a reference value while driving a vehicle. At the same time as the fuel warning light turns on, the side with the fuel inlet is brightened and the opposite side is slightly darkened so that the driver can easily know the position of the fuel inlet.
일반적인 자동차에는 주행시 연료잔량이 부족하면 운전자에게 주유을 알리기 위한 연료경고등이 설치되어 있다.In a typical car, a fuel warning lamp is installed to notify the driver of fueling when the fuel level is insufficient while driving.
도 1에 도시된 바와 같이 연료경고등(12)은 자동차 계기판(11)에 설치되어 있다.As shown in FIG. 1, the fuel warning lamp 12 is installed in the vehicle dashboard 11.
도 2는 종래의 연료경고등 표식에 불이 들어온 상태이다.2 is a state in which the conventional fuel warning lamp lights.
본 발명의 연료 주유구 위치 표시 방법과 관련된 기술은 개발된 바 없다. 본 발명의 기능이 자동차에 있어서 필수적인 것은 아니지만 운전자의 주행 환경을 편안하게 할 수 있다는 점에서 필요한 기능이다.No technology has been developed related to the fuel fill hole position indication method of the present invention. Although the function of the present invention is not essential for a vehicle, it is a necessary function in that the driving environment of a driver can be made comfortable.
종래에는 운전자가 연료 주유구의 위치을 기억하고 있지 않으면 재급유를 위해 주유소 진입시 사이드미러나 창밖을 통해 혹은 차문을 열고 연료 주유구의 위치를 확인하여야 하는 불편함이 있었다.Conventionally, if the driver does not remember the position of the fuel filling hole, there is an inconvenience of checking the position of the fuel filling hole through the side mirror or the window or opening the car door when entering the gas station for refueling.
본 발명은 상기와 같은 불편함을 해소하기 위해 안출된 것으로, 연료 부족으로 주유소로 진입하는 경우 계기판의 연료경고등을 이용하여 운전자에게 연료 주유구의 위치를 알려 자동차를 주유기 좌우 중 어느 쪽에 주차할지 쉽게 판단할 수 있는 방법을 제공하는데 그 목적이 있다.The present invention has been devised to solve the above inconvenience, when entering the gas station due to lack of fuel by using the fuel warning light of the instrument panel to inform the driver of the location of the fuel filling port to easily determine which side of the car to park the car The goal is to provide a way to do it.
도 1은 연료경고등이 포함되어 있는 종래의 자동차 계기판 구성도.1 is a configuration diagram of a conventional automobile instrument panel including a fuel warning light.
도 2는 종래의 연료경고등에 불이 들어온 모습.Figure 2 is a state in which the conventional fuel warning light is lit.
도 3는 본 발명의 연료 주유구 위치 표시 방법에서 연료 주유구가 자동차 우측에 위치함을 표시하는 연료경고등 모습.3 is a fuel warning light showing that the fuel filling hole is located on the right side of the vehicle in the fuel filling hole position display method of the present invention.
도 4는 본 발명의 연료 주유구 위치 표시 방법에서 연료 주유구가 자동차 좌측에 위치함을 표시하는 연료경고등 모습.4 is a fuel warning light showing that the fuel filling hole is located on the left side of the vehicle in the fuel filling hole position display method of the present invention.
도 5은 본 발명의 연료 주유구 위치 표시 방법이 구현된 차량 계기판 구성도.5 is a configuration of a vehicle instrument panel implemented fuel injection position display method of the present invention.

상기와 같은 목적을 달성하기 위한 본 발명은 종래의 자동차 계기판(11)의 연료경고등(12)에 사용되는 주유기 아이콘(도2)이 그려져 있는 프레임의 앞면이나 뒷면, 혹은 프레임 자체를 좌우로 이등분하여 한쪽은 그대로 두고 다른 쪽에는 경고등의 밝기를 감소시켜 약간 어둡게 할 수 있는 필터를 장착한다.The present invention for achieving the above object is bisected left and right of the front or rear of the frame, or the frame itself, the oiling machine icon (Fig. 2) used for the fuel warning lamp 12 of the conventional vehicle instrument panel 11 is drawn. Leave it on one side and have a filter on the other to reduce the brightness of the warning light and make it slightly darker.
이하, 첨부된 도면을 참조하여 본 발명의 바람직한 실시예를 상세하게 설명한다.Hereinafter, with reference to the accompanying drawings will be described in detail a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
도 3는 본 발명의 연료 주유구 위치 표시 방법에서 연료 주유구가 자동차 우측에 위치함을 표시하는 연료경고등 모습이고, 도 4는 본 발명의 연료 주유구 위치 표시 방법에서 연료 주유구가 자동차 좌측에 위치함을 표시하는 연료경고등 모습이다.Figure 3 is a fuel warning light showing that the fuel filling port is located on the right side of the vehicle in the fuel filling hole position display method of the present invention, Figure 4 is a fuel filling hole is located on the left side of the vehicle in the fuel filling hole position display method of the present invention. It is a fuel warning light.
도 5는 본 발명의 연료 주유구 위치 표시 방법이 구현된 자동차 계기판을 나타낸다.5 is a dashboard of a vehicle in which the fuel filling hole position display method of the present invention is implemented.
상기된 바와 같은 본 발명에 따르면, 운전자는 자동차의 연료 부족시 연료경고등이 켜짐과 동시에 연료경고등으로 구현된 연료 주유구 위치 표시 방법에 의하여 쉽게 연료 주유구 위치를 알 수 있으므로 운전자는 더 이상 주유소 진입시 차량 주차 방향에 대하여 혼동할 필요가 없게 된다.According to the present invention as described above, the driver can easily know the fuel filling port position by the fuel filling hole position display method implemented by the fuel warning lamp at the same time when the fuel warning light of the vehicle is low, the driver no longer parks the vehicle when entering the gas station There is no need to be confused about the direction.
이상에서는, 본 발명을 특정의 바람직한 실시예에 대해서 도시하고 설명하였다. 그러나, 본 발명은 상술한 실시예에만 한정되는 것은 아니며 본 발명이 속하는 기술 분야에서 통상의 지식을 가진 자라면 이하의 특허청구범위에 기재된 본 발명의 기술적 사상의 요지를 벗어남이 없이 얼마든지 다양하게 변경실시할 수 있을 것이다.In the above, the present invention has been illustrated and described with respect to certain preferred embodiments.
