Description:TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present subject matter relates to a lock system for two wheeled vehicles. More particularly, the present invention relates to a locking system which shall detect the usage of head safety guard by the rider with the help of sensors and electronic means and allow the vehicle ignition once the safety of the rider has been ensured by wearing the head safety guard. Additionally, it also prevents the theft of the user articles by providing a locking unit for the user articles.
BACKGROUND
[0002] A vehicle, generally a two wheeled vehicle requires the rider to wear a helmet for his own safety. In fact, some jurisdictions penalize the riders for not wearing helmets. However, it is difficult to monitor the enforcement of such rules which requires the rider to wear helmet while riding as rider may face lot of issues relating to storing the helmet as well. Even helmet is a common issue faced by riders due to lack of proper storage and locking mechanism of the articles used by the rider such as helmet.
[0003] This results in a situation where user may not wear helmet due to reasons like helmet has been stolen or lack of place to keep helmet safely. Thus it leads to putting the rider in an extremely dangerous situation of riding two wheeled vehicle with helmet. This scenario had led to the increased number of accidents and deaths. It can be fatal for the rider.
[0004] The World Health Organization states that 1.2 million people lose their lives annually due to road traffic injuries. More than half of the deaths caused affect the two wheelers in the form of head injuries. Most of these deaths are preventable by the compulsory use of helmets. Studies have shown that wearing a helmet can reduce the fatalities by 70%. Global initiatives have been taken to make helmets a high priority for public health. Many awareness drives have been launched, laws have been enforced in the public interests but still we find people violating the rules and driving very casually without wearing helmets and thereby risking their lives.
[0005] Helmet industry is focusing on incorporating entertainment and communication features in the helmet such as microphone, speaker etc. However, these features would only serve the purpose if rider is wearing helmet. Thus major object lies in compelling rider to wear the helmet and features of entertainment and communication can be a secondary issue.
[0006] Known art in this domain to prevent the road accidents works on alcohol detection with the help of alcohol sensors to prevent drunken driving. Some systems in the known art works on detection of rider wearing helmet at the start of the vehicle only via Infrared Sensors.
[0007] Thus, it is important to have a system which works on a principle where vehicle will not start unless the rider wears the head protective equipment such as any head safety guard like helmet.
[0008] However, there are certain drawbacks of the known systems such as it does not ensure continuous safety of the rider throughout riding the vehicle as known systems compels the rider to wear helmet only to start the vehicle. A system having continuous monitoring to ensure continuous wearing of the helmet by the rider in order to achieve continuous safety of the rider is desirable.
[0009] It is also an object of the present invention to provide a keyless igniting system which may work on Bluetooth technology that automatically turns on the engine when the driver wears the helmet and starts the vehicle after detecting the driver wearing helmet.
[00010] The present invention is a locking system for a vehicle comprises of a control unit which is configured to control mobilisation and immobilisation of the vehicle and a locking unit which is configured to secure at least a user article on the vehicle and being communicatively connected to the control unit. The locking system ensures the safety of the user article as well.
