Depending on the speed recorded by these sensors (V), the value (Y) that defines the range of angular positions of the mast in which each light configuration acts is modified (Illustration 2).
De este modo, la invención presenta un método de funcionamiento del Sistema de iluminación adaptativa para el VMP, objeto de invención, el cual describimos a continuación:In this way, the invention presents an operating method of the Adaptive Lighting System for the VMP, object of the invention, which we describe below:
- Si el nivel de iluminación (E [lux]) en el entorno de conducción es superior a un determinado valor (X) se considera que las condiciones lumínicas son suficientes y las luces permanecerán apagadas: "Luz delantera OFF”.- If the lighting level (E [lux]) in the driving environment is greater than a certain value (X), it is considered that the lighting conditions are sufficient and the lights will remain off: "Headlight OFF".
- Si el nivel de iluminación (E [lux]) registrado por el sensor de oscuridad es inferior a un determinado valor (X), se considera que las condiciones lumínicas son insuficientes y por lo tanto la luz delantera se enciende de manera automática: "Luz delantera ON”.- If the lighting level (E [lux]) recorded by the darkness sensor is less than a certain value (X), it is considered that the lighting conditions are insufficient and therefore the front light turns on automatically: " Headlight ON”.
- La luz delantera está compuesta por una tira de LEDs de intensidad regulable.- The front light is made up of a strip of LEDs with adjustable intensity.
La intensidad de iluminación de cada uno de los LEDs varía entre Ii e I 2 , siendo Ii la intensidad máxima e I 2 un valor inferior. En función de la señal registrada por al menos un sensor goniométrico, los LEDs emitirán con una intensidad u otra.The lighting intensity of each of the LEDs varies between Ii and I 2 , with Ii being the maximum intensity and I 2 a lower value. Depending on the signal recorded by at least one goniometric sensor, the LEDs will emit with one intensity or another.
- El VMP está dotado de un sensor goniométrico que permite conocer la posición angular del mástil. El ángulo registrado (a) adopta un valor positivo si el giro se produce en sentido horario, es decir, si el giro se produce a la derecha. El ángulo registrado (a) adopta un valor negativo si el giro se produce en sentido antihorario, es decir, si el giro se produce a la izquierda.- The VMP is equipped with a goniometric sensor that allows knowing the angular position of the mast. The recorded angle (a) assumes a positive value if the rotation is clockwise, that is, if the rotation is to the right. The recorded angle (a) assumes a negative value if the rotation is counterclockwise, that is, if the rotation is to the left.
- La unidad de control del vehículo (PCB) recibe datos de la posición angular del mástil (a) y datos sobre las condiciones lumínicas del entorno de circulación (E) y en función de ello acciona el encendido de luces delanteras según tres posibles configuraciones:- The vehicle control unit (PCB) receives data on the angular position of the mast (a) and data on the lighting conditions of the traffic environment (E) and, based on this, activates the headlights according to three possible configurations:
• Configuración 1: El ángulo de giro del mástil, en valor absoluto, es reducido e inferior a un determinado valor Y (|a| < Y). En este caso los LEDs centrales iluminan con intensidad máxima Ii mientras que los LEDs laterales iluminan con intensidad I 2 , siendo h> I 2 .• Configuration 1: The angle of rotation of the mast, in absolute value, is reduced and less than a certain value Y (|a| < Y). In this case, the central LEDs illuminate with maximum intensity Ii while the lateral LEDs illuminate with intensity I 2 , being h> I 2 .
• Configuración 2: El ángulo de giro del mástil registrado por el goniómetro es, en valor absoluto, superior a un determinado valor Y (|a| > Y). Adicionalmente, dicho valor es negativo (a<0), lo que indica un giro pronunciado a la izquierda. En consecuencia, los LEDs centrales y los LEDs del lateral izquierdo iluminan con intensidad máxima Ii mientras que los LEDs del lateral derecho iluminan con intensidad I 2 .• Configuration 2: The angle of rotation of the mast recorded by the goniometer is, in absolute value, greater than a certain value Y (|a| > Y). Additionally, said value is negative (a<0), which indicates a sharp turn to the left. Consequently, the central LEDs and the LEDs on the left side illuminate with maximum intensity Ii while the LEDs on the right side illuminate with intensity I 2 .
• Configuración 3: El ángulo de giro del mástil registrado por el goniómetro es, en valor absoluto, superior a un determinado valor Y (|a| > Y). Adicionalmente, dicho valor es positivo (a>0), lo que indica un giro pronunciado a la derecha. En consecuencia, los LEDs centrales y los LEDs del lateral derecho iluminan con intensidad máxima Ii mientras que los LEDs del lateral izquierdo iluminan con intensidad I 2 .• Configuration 3: The angle of rotation of the mast recorded by the goniometer is, in absolute value, greater than a certain value Y (|a| > Y). Additionally, said value is positive (a>0), which indicates a sharp turn to the right. Consequently, the central LEDs and the LEDs on the right side illuminate with maximum intensity Ii while the LEDs on the left side illuminate with intensity I 2 .
