Abstract
The present device eliminates electrostatic discharges when getting out of the car, exploiting the principle of transfer of the surface electric charges by difference of potential. This avoids all the problems caused by electrostatic discharges: sudden explosion of airbags, problems for people with implants of any type and general discomfort caused by said discharges.
Claims23
A method for discharging electric charges from a vehicle, comprising the step of setting at least two electric conductors, each having respective non-insulated parts, onto a predetermined part of a vehicle passenger compartment, in such a position that each non-insulated part comes simultaneously into contact with a passenger when the passenger grasps said predetermined part;
- and connecting each of said at least two electric conductors to a different pole of a capacitive bipolar element.
A device for discharging electric charges from a vehicle, comprising:
- a capacitive bipolar element;
- at least two different electric conductors, located on a vehicle, for discharging electric charges from a passenger in the vehicle, each of said two electric conductors is connected to a different pole of said capacitive bipolar element and also has a non insulated part;
- wherein said non insulated parts are set, not short circuited with each other, on a predetermined part of a vehicle passenger compartment, in such a position one with respect to the other that the passenger, while grasping said predetermined part of the passenger compartment, comes simultaneously into contact with both of said at least two non-insulated parts.
A device for discharging electric charges, comprising:
- a capacitive bipolar element;
- and
- at least two electric conductors each of which is electrically connected to a different pole of said capacitive bipolar element and has a non-insulated part thereon;
- a part of the passenger compartment of a vehicle, where each of said non-insulated parts is set on said part of the passenger compartment in such a position, one with respect to the other, that a passenger, while grasping said part of the passenger compartment, comes simultaneously into contact with both of said at least two non-insulated parts, such that any electric charge is discharged.
