Brève description des figuresBrief description of the figures
L'invention sera mieux comprise à l'aide de la description qui va suivre, faite en se référant aux dessins annexés qui sont donnés à titre d'exemple nullement limitatif, sur lesquels :The invention will be better understood from the following description, made with reference to the accompanying drawings which are given by way of non-limiting example, in which:
- la figure 1 illustre un schéma bloc global d'un mode de réalisation de l'invention ;FIG. 1 illustrates a block diagram of an embodiment of the invention;
- la figure 2 donne un exemple de réalisation pour l'affichage de la vitesse à l'extérieur du véhicule ;FIG. 2 gives an exemplary embodiment for displaying the speed outside the vehicle;
- la figure 3 montre un exemple d'affichage de la vitesse sur la lunette arrière du véhicule.
Description détaillée de l'invention- Figure 3 shows an example of display of the speed on the rear window of the vehicle. Detailed description of the invention
La figure 1 illustre les principaux éléments pour la réalisation de l'invention. A l'exception du concept inventif, ces éléments sont bien connus dans l'art antérieur et ne seront donc pas décrits en détails. Dans un exemple de mode de réalisation, le dispositif est composé de trois parties principales : un tachymètre 1, 2 et 3, des moyens pour transmettre 4 la valeur à afficher et des moyens pour afficher 5 la valeur de la vitesse.Figure 1 illustrates the main elements for carrying out the invention. With the exception of the inventive concept, these elements are well known in the prior art and will therefore not be described in detail. In an exemplary embodiment, the device is composed of three main parts: a tachometer 1, 2 and 3, means for transmitting the value to be displayed and means for displaying the value of the speed.
Dans ce mode de réalisation, les moyens utilisés pour la transmission 4 de la valeur à afficher peuvent être filaires ou sans fil. Dans les deux cas, ils permettent de séparer le tachymètre 1, 2 et 3 et les moyens utilisés pour l'affichage 5 de la valeur de la vitesse. En effet, la séparation de ces deux parties permet de trouver un emplacement idéal pour ranger le tachymètre 1, 2 et 3 afin d'éviter tout encombrement à l'intérieur du véhicule tout en ayant une grande liberté de choisir l'emplacement idéal pour fixer les moyens pour afficher 5 la valeur de la vitesse.In this embodiment, the means used for the transmission 4 of the value to be displayed may be wired or wireless. In both cases, they make it possible to separate the tachometer 1, 2 and 3 and the means used for displaying the value of the speed. Indeed, the separation of these two parts makes it possible to find an ideal location to store tachometer 1, 2 and 3 to avoid any clutter inside the vehicle while having great freedom to choose the ideal location to fix the means for displaying the value of the speed.
Dans l'exemple illustré dans la figure 2, les moyens utilisés pour l'affichage 5 de la valeur de la vitesse du véhicule sont constitués d'un pistolet à projection laser 5 fixé sur le toit 8 à l'intérieur du véhicule ce qui permet la projection de la valeur de la vitesse 6 dans la lunette arrière 7 du véhicule comme illustré sur la figure 3.In the example illustrated in FIG. 2, the means used for displaying the value of the speed of the vehicle consist of a laser projection gun 5 fixed on the roof 8 inside the vehicle which allows the projection of the value of the speed 6 in the rear window 7 of the vehicle as illustrated in FIG.
Toute surface plate à côté de la plaque d'immatriculation peut être utilisée pour la projection de la valeur de la vitesse du véhicule à condition de respecter le contraste des couleurs de la carrosserie et du faisceau de projection.Any flat surface next to the license plate may be used for projection of the vehicle speed value provided that the color contrast of the bodywork and the projection beam are respected.
Dans un autre mode de réalisation de l'invention, la projection de la valeur de la vitesse peut être effectuée via une lumière infrarouge sur les zones transparentes du véhicule par exemple, du moment que ce type de lumière apparaît sur une photo même s'il reste invisible à l'œil nu.In another embodiment of the invention, the projection of the value of the speed can be carried out via infrared light on the transparent areas of the vehicle for example, as long as this type of light appears on a photograph even if remains invisible to the naked eye.
En effet, l'objectif de la projection de la valeur de la vitesse du véhicule est de permettre de comparer la vitesse captée par un radar de contrôle de la vitesse avec celle projetée sur le véhicule lors de la prise d'une photo pour identifier le propriétaire du véhicule lors d'une infraction d'excès de vitesse par exemple.Indeed, the objective of the projection of the value of the speed of the vehicle is to make it possible to compare the speed sensed by a speed control radar with that projected on the vehicle when taking a photograph to identify the speed of the vehicle. owner of the vehicle during a speeding infraction, for example.
De cette manière, le dispositif décrit par la présente invention permet un affichage contradictoire de la vitesse du véhicule sans avoir à apporter des modifications gênantes dans le véhicule et surtout afin de se protéger contre les erreurs qui peuvent se produire par les radars de contrôle de la vitesse ou de pouvoir se défendre si une infraction erronée enregistrée par un radar n'existe pas réellement.
In this way, the device described by the present invention allows a contradictory display of the speed of the vehicle without having to make annoying modifications in the vehicle and especially to protect against errors that may occur by the control radar of the vehicle. speed or to be able to defend itself if an erroneous infraction recorded by a radar does not actually exist.
