Abstract

The dashboard is fitted with a pull-out rubber hose with mouthpiece into which the driver blows before he can start the car. The hose inflates a balloon inside a metal container with a microswitch at the end. This ensures that the balloon has to be fully inflated to close the microswitch and operate the first interlock. A light sensing semiconductor monitors the colour change, if any, on alcohol detecting crystals in a replaceable tube in the mouth of the balloon. If the test is negative, then the circuit is open for starting, and remains open for a set time interval, e.g., five minutes, to cover any difficult starting. After this time interval the test has to be repeated every time the car stops.

Description

Alkohol-Sperrtestgerät für Kraftfahrzeuge Die vorliegende Erfindung beruht auf einer Sperrfunktion,die in Tätigkeit gesetzt wird,wenn ein Kraftfahrer eine bestimte Menge Alkohol. getrunken hat und nach den gesetzLichen Bestimmungen nicht mehr fahren darf, indem die Inbetriebnahme des Fahrzeuges nicht mehr möglich ist.Automotive Alcohol Interlock Tester The present invention is based on a locking function that is activated when a driver is in motion a certain amount of alcohol. has been drinking and in accordance with the statutory provisions is no longer allowed to drive, in that the commissioning of the vehicle is no longer possible is.

Eine vergleichbare Erfindung ist unbekannt.A comparable invention is unknown.

Beschreibung: Das vorgesehene Gerät wird fest im Kraftfahrzeug eingebaut.Ein Anlassen des Motors durch den Starter ist nur möglich,wenn der Fahrer sich einem Alkohol-Test im Fahrzeug unterzieht.Zu diesem Zweck wird eine Fle@ible Leitung (1) aus dem Armaturenbrett gezogen.Eine Gummiblase (2) die in einem Metallmantel (3) angeordnet ist,muß derart aufgeblasen werden,daß durch einen Federboden (4) ein Mikroschalter (5) betätigt wird.Dieser Mikroschalter wiederum betätigt einen Zeitkreis (6) mit Selbsthaltung,der beispielweise auf 5 Minuten Laufdauer eingestellt ist.Der Zeitkeis wiederum gibt über ein Relais (7) nur dann eine Durchschaltmöglichkeit,wenn ein elektronischer Trübungsanzeiger (8) keine Verfärbung des auswechselbaren Blasröhrchens (9) feststellen kann.Erst die Durchschaltung des Relais (7) läßt ein Starten auf die übliche Art mit dem Zündschlüssel (10) zu.Description: The intended device is permanently installed in the vehicle Starting the engine by the starter is only possible if the driver is one Undergoes alcohol test in the vehicle. For this purpose, a flexible line (1) pulled out of the dashboard A rubber bladder (2) wrapped in a metal jacket (3) is arranged, must be inflated in such a way that a spring base (4) a Microswitch (5) is actuated. This microswitch in turn actuates a timing circuit (6) with self-holding, which is set to run for 5 minutes, for example Zeitkeis in turn only gives a through-connection option via a relay (7) if an electronic turbidity indicator (8) does not discolour the replaceable blow tube (9) can only be established when the relay (7) is switched through the usual way with the ignition key (10).

Der zeitkreis (6) der mit einer z.B.5 Minuten langen Selbsthalte-Laufdauer vorgesehen ist,soll verhindern,daß bei Startfehlern der Blasvorgang ständig wiederholt werden muß.Nach Anlauf des Motors bleibt das Relais (7) bis zum Abstellen des Motors in Selbsthaltung.The time circuit (6) with a self-holding duration, e.g. 5 minutes is provided is intended to prevent the blowing process from constantly being repeated in the event of start errors After the engine has started, the relay (7) remains until the engine is switched off in self-holding.

Bei erneut notwendigen Starten muß der Blasvorgang wie beschrieben wiederholt werden.If it is necessary to start again, the blowing process must be carried out as described be repeated.

Die vorliegende Erfindung soll Kraftfahrer vor Strafen und Schaden, der auch Dritten zugefügt werden kann,schützen.The present invention is intended to protect motorists from penalties and harm, which can also be inflicted on third parties.

Das beschriebene Gerät ist nach dem heutigen Stand der Elektronik störungsfrei und relativ billig herzustellen.The device described is based on the current state of electronics trouble-free and relatively cheap to manufacture.
