Die Erfindung betrifft eine Notrufeinrichtung für Fahrzeuge gemäß Oberbegriff des Anspruch 1.The invention relates to an emergency call device for vehicles according to the preamble of Claim 1.
Für Fahrzeuge sind Notrufeinrichtungen bekannt, die beispielsweise bei einem Unfall automatisch ein Notfallsignal an eine Notrufzentrale übertragen können. Eine derartige Notrufeinrichtung ist in der DE 298 03 757 U1 beschrieben, die eine Sendeeinrichtung und auch eine Empfangseinrichtung für Notrufsignale hat. In einer Unfallsituation kann eine Kommunikation zwischen der Notrufzentrale und den Insassen des verunfallten Fahrzeugs stattfinden. Bei dieser gattungsbildenden Druckschrift ist auch erwähnt, daß die im Fahrzeug vorhandene Empfangseinrichtung zur Signalausgabe einen bereits vorhandenen Lautsprecher eines Autoradios verwenden kann. Wie dabei die elektrische Verbindung zu dem Lautsprecher ausgeführt sein soll, ist aus dieser Druckschrift nicht entnehmbar.Emergency vehicles are known for vehicles, for example in the event of an accident can automatically transmit an emergency signal to an emergency call center. Such one Emergency call device is described in DE 298 03 757 U1, which is a transmitting device and also has a receiving device for emergency signals. In an accident situation communication between the emergency call center and the occupants of the accident victim Vehicle take place. In this generic document is also mentioned that the receiving device in the vehicle for signal output already has one can use existing speakers of a car radio. Like doing the electrical Connection to the loudspeaker should not be made from this document removable.
Nach einem Unfall kann die Funktion elektrischer Einrichtungen beeinträchtigt sein, weshalb ein Anschluß der Notrufeinrichtung an den im Fahrzeug vorhandenen Audioverstärker des Autoradios die Gefahr beinhaltet, daß nach einem Unfall die Notrufeinrichtung nicht mehr funktioniert.After an accident, the function of electrical equipment may be impaired which is why a connection of the emergency call device to the existing one in the vehicle Audio amplifier of the car radio contains the risk that after an accident the Emergency call device no longer works.
Aus der DE 196 50 176 A1 ist eine Notrufeinrichtung zum automatischen Benachrichtigen von hilfeleistenden Personen für Fahrzeuge bekannt, bei der eine sprachliche Kommunikation über eine Freisprechanlage erfolgt. Die Notrufeinrichtung hat eine autarke Energiequelle, so daß in einer Notsituation die Energieversorgung gewährleistet sein soll.DE 196 50 176 A1 describes an automatic emergency call device Notification of helpers known for vehicles in which one voice communication takes place via a hands-free system. The emergency call device has a self-sufficient energy source, so that the energy supply in an emergency should be guaranteed.
Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Notrufeinrichtung für Fahrzeuge zu schaffen, die mit möglichst geringem Zusatzaufwand zur Abgabe akustischer Informationen geeignet ist.The invention has for its object to provide an emergency call device for vehicles create the acoustic with as little additional effort as possible Information is appropriate.
Die Lösung dieser Aufgabe erhält man durch die im Anspruch 1 angegebenen Merkmale. In einem Fahrzeug, welches mit einem Autoradio oder einer sonstigen Audioeinrichtung ausgestattet ist, wird bei einem Notfall ein Lautsprecher der Audioeinrichtung über einen steuerbaren und stromlos geschlossenen Schalter mit der Notrufeinrichtung elektrisch verbunden. Die Notrufeinrichtung ist vorzugsweise auch mit einem Mikrofon ausgestattet, so daß über das Mikrofon und den angeschlossenen Lautsprecher in einer Notsituation eine Sprachkommunikation zwischen den Insassen des Fahrzeugs und einer Notrufzentrale stattfinden kann. Da das Anschalten des Lautsprechers an die Notrufeinrichtung bei stromlosem Steuereingang des steuerbaren Schalters erfolgt, wird für die Steuerung des Schalters keine autarke Stromversorgung benötigt. Besonders vorteilhaft ist es, daß die Notrufeinrichtung keinen separaten Lautsprecher benötigt, da über einen einfachen Schalter im Notfall ein ohnehin im Fahrzeug vorhandener Lautsprecher der Audioeinrichtung benutzt wird.The solution to this problem is obtained by the features specified in claim 1. In a vehicle equipped with a car radio or other audio device is equipped, in an emergency, a speaker of the audio device via a controllable and de-energized closed switch with the emergency call device electrically connected. The emergency call device is preferably also equipped with a microphone, so that the microphone and the connected speakers in an emergency situation a voice communication between the occupants of the vehicle and one Emergency call center can take place. Since turning on the speaker to the Emergency call device takes place when the controllable switch is de-energized No independent power supply required to control the switch. Especially It is advantageous that the emergency call device does not require a separate loudspeaker, since With a simple switch in an emergency, an existing one in the vehicle Speaker of the audio device is used.
Die Steuerung des Schalters kann besonders einfach dadurch erfolgen, daß der Steuereingang des Schalters an die Stromversorgung der Audioeinrichtung angeschlossen ist, so daß in der Notsituation eine Notfallsteuerung die Stromversorgung abschalten kann, wodurch über den Schalter eine elektrische Verbindung zu einem Lautsprecher der Audioeinrichtung erfolgt. Diese Maßnahme stellt sicher, daß auch bei einer Zerstörung der Stromversorgung und einem dadurch bedingten Spannungsabfall an der Stromversorgung der Lautsprecher mit der Notrufeinrichtung verbunden wird.The control of the switch can be done particularly simply in that the Control input of the switch to the power supply of the audio device is connected so that in the emergency situation an emergency control the power supply can turn off, making an electrical connection to a switch Speaker of the audio device takes place. This measure ensures that even at destruction of the power supply and a resulting drop in voltage is connected to the power supply of the loudspeakers with the emergency call device.
Der steuerbare Schalter kann auch so angeordnet sein, daß er in einer Notsituation den Audioverstärker der Audioeinrichtung überbrückt. Am Eingang des Audioverstärkers liegen dann in der Notsituation die über den Schalter zum Lautsprecher zu übertragenden Audiosignale der Notrufeinrichtung an.The controllable switch can also be arranged so that it is in an emergency situation Audio amplifier bridged the audio device. At the input of the audio amplifier are then in the emergency situation via the switch to the speaker transmitting audio signals from the emergency call device.
Als Lautsprecher wird vorzugsweise ein Hochtonlautsprecher der Audioeinrichtung verwendet, um eine möglichst gut verständliche Sprachübertragung zu gewährleisten.A tweeter of the audio device is preferably used as the loudspeaker used to ensure the best possible understandable voice transmission.
Die Notrufeinrichtung kann in einer einfachen Version nur eine einseitige Sprachübertragung vorsehen, wobei dann in einer Notsituation über den angeschalteten Lautsprecher der Audioeinrichtung Notfallinformationen von der Notrufzentrale zu den Insassen des Fahrzeugs übertragen werden können.. An die Notrufeinrichtung ist jedoch vorzugsweise ein Mikrofon angeschlossen, welches in Verbindung mit dem ebenfalls angeschlossenen Lautsprecher eine bidirektionale Sprachverbindung zwischen den Insassen des Fahrzeugs und der Notrufzentrale ermöglicht. In a simple version, the emergency call device can only be one-sided Provide voice transmission, then in an emergency situation over the on Loudspeaker of the audio device emergency information from the emergency center to the Passengers of the vehicle can be transferred .. However, to the emergency device preferably a microphone connected, which also in connection with the connected speakers a bidirectional voice connection between the Allows occupants of the vehicle and the emergency call center.
