Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of bicycles and electric bicycles, and in particular relates to a safety prompting system for bicycles. Background Art

[0002] With the growing enthusiasm of the whole nation for cycling and the increase in enthusiasm for outdoor sports, bicycles, a century-old sports product, are once again exuding new vitality. Among all bicycle products, road bicycles have successfully attracted a large number of cycling enthusiasts with their unique charm, especially young people, who are even more fond of them. As a high-end sports product, road bicycles embody more than just cycling. In today's fast-paced world, they are also given more social attributes. While enjoying the fun of riding, riding safety cannot be ignored. Usually, due to the high speed of road bicycles, it is not easy to avoid obstacles. For example, when there are vehicles or pedestrians approaching on both sides, it is not possible to avoid them in time due to the lack of timely detection. Moreover, in the scenario where the road bicycle itself is an obstacle (for example, vehicles, pedestrians, etc. move to the rear of the road bicycle), it is not easy to detect and make evasive displacement.

[0003] In the aforementioned application scenarios, road bicycles are prone to riding safety problems. For example, when the rider does not give way to vehicles and pedestrians on the side and rear in time, it is easy to collide with vehicles and pedestrians. When the rider does not give way to vehicles and pedestrians approaching from behind in time, it is easy to be hit by vehicles and pedestrians behind. In addition, in this scenario, the rider becomes a traffic obstacle because he does not give way in time. In summary, it is necessary to develop and design a safety reminder system for bicycles, especially road bicycles, which can provide necessary safety reminders to riders so that they can give way in time to improve riding safety.

In this embodiment, Figure 1 As shown in FIG. 1 , the handlebar assembly includes a lower handlebar 3 and a stem 4 located in the middle of the lower handlebar 3, and a first handlebar sensor probe 1 and a second handlebar sensor probe 2 are respectively located at two ends of the lower handlebar 3. The lower handlebar 3 is a handlebar type commonly selected for road bicycles.

[0020] A comprehensive information module 5 is installed on the handlebar assembly, such as Figure 1 As shown in , the comprehensive information module 5 is installed on the top of the stem 4. When riding, the rider can look down to view the information displayed by the comprehensive information module 5.

[0021] The comprehensive information module 5 includes a first processor module and a first power module connected to the first processor module, a first Bluetooth module and a liquid crystal display screen with multiple prompt areas. The first handlebar sensing probe 1 and the second handlebar sensing probe 2 are connected to the first processor module. Specifically, the first handlebar sensing probe 1 and the second handlebar sensing probe 2 can be connected to the comprehensive information module 5 using a signal cable extending in an internal routing manner inside the lower handlebar 3.

[0022] The first processor module is built based on the PLC chip, and is used to process the detection information sent by the first handlebar sensing probe 1 and the second handlebar sensing probe 2 to determine whether there are vehicles and pedestrians on the side and rear. The first power module is used to power the comprehensive information module 5. The first Bluetooth module is used for Bluetooth communication. The LCD display is used to display information.

[0027] The second processor module is built based on the PLC chip, and is used to process the detection information sent by the saddle pipe sensing probe 8 to determine whether there are vehicles and pedestrians behind. The second power supply module is used to power the rear detection module 7, and the second Bluetooth module is used for Bluetooth communication.

[0028] In this embodiment, the rear detection module 7 also includes a taillight integrated with the seat tube sensing probe 8 (the compactness of the structure is improved by integration). The taillight is connected to the second processor module. The taillight is usually lit when riding at night to send light prompts to surrounding vehicles and personnel, prompting surrounding vehicles and personnel to better perceive bicycles and actively avoid them.

[0029] In this embodiment, the seat tube sensing probe 8 is a micro camera or a micro sensor with a sensing distance of 2 to 3 meters. When a micro camera is selected, its shooting direction is toward the rear, and it can capture images in a certain fan-shaped area. The second processor module processes the image information and determines whether there are vehicles and personnel behind by the occupancy of the micro camera's field of view. When a micro sensor is selected, an ultrasonic sensing probe or an infrared sensing probe can be used, and its detection direction is toward the rear, which can detect vehicles and personnel in a certain fan-shaped area.

[0030] In this embodiment, the second power module of the rear detection module 7 is a rechargeable battery. The rear detection module 7 has an expandable battery compartment, and the rechargeable battery can be disassembled and installed in the battery compartment.

[0031] The comprehensive information module 5 and the rear detection module 7 are communicatively connected via the first Bluetooth module and the second Bluetooth module. Specifically, the detection information acquired by the rear detection module 7 is sent via the second Bluetooth module and the comprehensive information module 5 is received via the first Bluetooth module. Finally, all avoidance prompt information is displayed on the LCD screen of the comprehensive information module 5.

[0032] In this embodiment, the prompt area on the LCD screen includes a left prompt area located on the left side corresponding to the first handlebar sensing probe 1, a right prompt area located on the right side corresponding to the second handlebar sensing probe 2, and a middle prompt area located in the middle corresponding to the saddle pipe sensing probe 8. Specifically: the left prompt area, the right prompt area and the middle prompt area are three independent areas delineated on the LCD screen, and these three independent areas can each perform backlight control. During operation, the first processor module controls the backlight of different prompt areas to turn on and off to achieve the effect of whether to generate an avoidance prompt.

[0033] When the system determines that there are situations that need to be avoided in different directions, the corresponding prompt area is highlighted and the buzzer produces a prompt sound. The sound and light prompts prompt the rider to promptly notice the vehicles and people that need to be avoided in the corresponding directions and take timely evasive actions to improve safety.
