Definitions

  • EP 1 475 767 A3 applicant and inventor Lee Kil-Suo with Korean priority 09.05.2003, which is now cited as state of the art relative, other than to the known optic reflection, to the modality of displaying luminous messages/icons.
  • the heating happens by means of the electric energy coming from electric system or from photovoltaic accumulator, which feeds an electric resistance constituted by a wire in adhesion or screen printed on the inside surface of the reflector or constituted by an electricity conductive coating sputtered on the same face.
  • the heating control is obtained through a switch actuated by means of an electronic card interfaced with a thermal sensor and with an hygrometric sensor. The embodiment modes are left to the reader interpretations as not enough described.
  • EP 1 475 767 A3 the inventive step is limited to the system management constituted by a photovoltaic accumulator or an electric system and an electronic card used to supply leds (light emitting diodes) to visualize messages/icons across the road reflector.
  • the heavy troubles that we can find on the existing installations are: wrong or missing indication due to the formation of condensation (dew) or of ice (frost), in spite of the presence of a heating apparatus (the same apparatus becoming insufficient in climate conditions very cold or the same apparatus becoming damaged), or due to the alteration or the drift of the geometric trim and above all: missing of alarms indicating one or more of the above listed possible failures, both towards the road user and towards the body charged for the installation, the management and the maintenance of the apparatus.
  • Main aim of the object of the present application is therefore that to solve the listed technical issues, eliminating all the inconveniences of the cited state of the art and therefore to contrive a device and a method that allows to alarm the drivers about the malfunctioning or possible malfunctioning of the optics of the reflector, either due to the consequences of the thermo-hygrometric conditions or to the failure of the heating system or to the failure of the geometric trim referred to the site conditions.
  • the numbering with one digit is used for the generic known components, the numbering with two digits is used for the inventive components.
  • the innovative principle is constituted by the heating control logic and by the alarm control logic and particularly the alarm logic is useful and sometimes vital to signalize danger / risk situations or failure situations which at the contrary, as it happen nowadays, are not expected by the users even if present.
  • Parameters like temperature and humidity, coming from respective sensors 13 and 14 as (for example) millivolt signals and once elaborated by the microprocessor, are identifying the coordinates of the thermo-hygrometric conditions "A" in the J-X diagram of humid air ( figure 2 ).
  • the heating control is carried out through PWM modulation, known by itself, but using as PID parameters respectively the following: for the proportional term P the value 1/ ⁇ t (or an equivalent value), for the derivative term D the value - ⁇ t/ ⁇ or better -dt/d ⁇ (or an equivalent value), for the integrative term I a value settable by means of a trimmer (the used nomenclature being that of the automatic control principles and of the differential mathematic analysis and ⁇ being the time).
  • P proportional term
  • D the value - ⁇ t/ ⁇ or better -dt/d ⁇
  • An alternative algorithm can be that, by using two sensors respectively measuring the ambient temperature tA and the reflector temperature tR, to control the electric power to the resistance 4 or by means of ON/OFF switching or by means of SCR diodes or power transistors which trimming signal is constituted by 1/(tA - tR) (or an equivalent value) for the proportional P term and by - d(tA-tR)/d ⁇ (or an equivalent value) for the derivative D term.
  • the parameters orientation 15, inclination x 16, inclination y 17, sent to the microprocessor as (for example) millivolt signals are compared with the range of set point values 18 as set during the original and correct installation. Once such comparison reveals one or more parameters out of range, site alarm 11 and remote alarms 12 are activated.
  • the microprocessor managing all the functions described in the present paragraph being as example the PIC16F877P in whose programmable memory the humid air psychrometric diagram J-X ( Figure 2 ) data and heating trimming power algorithms are resident.
  • the site alarm 11 can be flashing indicators, rotating indicators or leds (light emitting diodes), which location has to be visible from the different users.
  • An ideal combination of the sizes and patterns of the device is the following: reflector 4 diameter 500 mm; reflector 4 material chromed plastic as ABS, chromed steel, stainless steel; insulating material expanded polyurethane or expanded polystyrene; equalising material 5 rubber or other material having high thermal capacity or gel contained between membranes and possibly communicating with a volumetric expansion chamber (having in this case the function of augment the thermal capacity).
  • the present invention is suitable of a number of embodiments variants, (in comparison with what disclosed with the figures, which details are evident and eloquent, and disclosed with the description), particularly regarding type and functions of the microprocessor, all variants belonging to the equivalence with the inventive step that is that one to alarm the user and the management body about the state of the reflector, either thermal or mechanic, and that one to minimise the electric energy consumption.
