Abstract
A flashing device for a vehicle includes a power filtering unit connected to a power source for outputting a negative voltage after filtration, a detecting unit for detecting the negative voltage from the power filtering unit, an oscillating unit electrically connected to the detecting unit, and a drive unit electrically connected to the detecting unit and the oscillating unit. The oscillating unit generates a flashing signal when the detecting unit detects the negative voltage. The drive unit receives the flashing signal and causes the flashing device to flash.
Claims6
A flashing device for a vehicle, comprising:
- a power filtering unit connected to a power source for outputting a negative voltage after filtration responsive to a signal lamp being connected to the power source;
- a detecting unit coupled to the power filtering unit for detecting the negative voltage from the power filtering unit;
- an oscillating unit electrically connected to the detecting unit, the oscillating unit generating a flashing signal responsive to the negative voltage being detected by the detecting unit;
- and
- a drive unit electrically connected to the detecting unit and the oscillating unit, the drive unit having a relay with contacts coupled to the signal lamp, the drive unit receiving the flashing signal and switching the relay in correspondence thereto for making and breaking the contacts of the relay to flash the signal lamp.
