Abstract
The present invention relates to an automobile road center line indicating device by using optical transfer including: a light condensing device installed at road center line or border line for condensing light emitted from headlights of an automobile; an optical cable for transferring the light condensed by the light condensing device to a predetermined position ahead from the automobile; and a luminous device for transforming the light transferred along the optical cable into straight-advancing parallel light to notify a driver.
Claims3
An automobile road center line indicating device by using optical transfer comprising:
- an integral type case having a fixed piece fastened at the median strip, first and second spaces separated by a diaphragm, first and second hitching jaws formed at its both internal lateral edges and an optical cable installation part penetrated through the center of the diaphragm to a predetermined length;
- condensing lenses mounted at lens accommodating surface separated by a hitching jaw formed inside the lateral surface of the integral case for condensing light;
- an optical cable inserted in an installation opening of an optical transfer part of the integral type case and surrounded by a elastically supporting member for transferring the light condensed by the condensing lenses and luminous lens deposed at a lens accommodating surface separated by a hitching jaw formed in a lateral surface of the integral type case for transforming into straight-advancing parallel light;
- light transmitting plates deposed in front of the condensing lenses and luminous lenses for protection;
- and
- pressingly fixing plates having an optical transfer opening mounted for pressing and fixing the light transmitting plates with fastening screws.
