Abstract

The cab of the vehicle is hinged and in the fashion of an elevator movable upwards on two pillars fitted to the frame. The cab is moved by hydraulic, pneumatic or pyrotechnic means and activated by a computer unit which by sensors and other suitable measuring devices calculate the speed, space in front of the moving vehicle, potential braking distance and space in front of an over the vehicle. In the event of the unavoidable danger of a rear end collision the computer activates release of the hinges holding the cab and sets the lifting process in motion.

Description

Stand der TechnikState of the art

Bei einem LKW ist ein Airbag sinnlos, wenn die Ladung den Fahrer von hinten erdrückt. Da bei einem LKW im Gegensatz zum PKW wesentlich höhere Massen bewegt werden, ist bei einem Unfall der Fahrer weit mehr gefährdet. Unabhängig von der Form der "Nase" des LKW ist die Kabine von zwei Seiten schwach:
In a truck, an airbag is pointless if the load crushes the driver from behind. As a truck, unlike a car, has a much higher mass, the driver is much more at risk in the event of an accident. Regardless of the shape of the "nose" of the truck, the cabin is weak on two sides:

  • 1. Bei einem Auffahrunfall drückt das "Hindernis" immer auf die Kabine. Dabei ist "eine lange Nase" (z. B. Volvo, Scania, Mack) sicherlich von Vorteil, aber nur in geringem Ausmaß, dann ist die Kabine und der Fahrer dran!1. In the event of a rear-end collision, the "obstacle" always presses on the cabin. It is "a long nose" (eg Volvo, Scania, Mack) certainly an advantage, but only in small extent, then the cabin and the driver's turn!
  • 2. Die Masse des LKW, - sowohl Eigengewicht als auch Ladung - können nicht von der Kabine gebremst werden.2. The mass of the truck, - both dead weight and load - can not from be braked in the cabin.

Man hebt die Kabine über die Ladung!You lift the cabin over the load!

Das geht so: Die zum Zwecke der Reparatur klappbare Kabine ist bekannt. Diese Kabine kann an zwei Säulen, die am Rahmen angebracht sind, wie ein Fahrstuhl nach oben bewegt werden. Durch pyrotechnische Elemente werden die Haltescharniere gelöst und die Sche­ renheber, die ihre Kraft durch hydraulische oder pneumatische oder pyrotechnische Ele­ mente erhalten, fährt der "Fahrstuhl" über die Ladung hoch. Die notwendigen Auslöse­ systeme sind bereits beim Airbag ausreichend entwickelt. Zusätzliche müssen Sensoren, die z. B. auf Ultraschallbasis - den Platz über der Kabine messen. In einem Tunnel oder unter einer Brücke nützt auch dieser "Fahrstuhl" nichts, wenn der Platz nach oben nicht ausreicht und die Gefahr besteht, dass der Fahrer vom Hebemechanismus erdrückt wird. Ein Messraum von ca. 40 Meter ist bei einer Hubleistung von 1,5 m/sek. mit Umlenkung (siehe Hubstapler) ausreichend.This is how it works: The cabin that can be folded for repair purposes is known. This cabin can be moved up like an elevator on two pillars attached to the frame become. The hinge and the Sche are released by pyrotechnic elements ren lifters, the power by hydraulic or pneumatic or pyrotechnic Ele received, the "elevator" drives up over the load. The necessary triggers systems have already been sufficiently developed for airbags. Additional sensors, the z. B. on an ultrasound basis - measure the space above the cabin. In a tunnel or under a bridge, this "elevator" is of no use if the space above is not is sufficient and there is a risk that the driver will be crushed by the lifting mechanism. A measuring room of approx. 40 meters with a lifting capacity of 1.5 m / sec. with redirection (see lift truck) sufficient.

Auf Fahrzeugkabinen, welche zum Zwecke des Insassenschutzes einen Hebemechanismus aufweisen, der durch hydraulische oder pneumatische oder pyrotechnische Elemente in der Art eines Hubstaplers bewegt werden. An zwei Säulen, die am Rahmen angeschraubt sind, wird die Kabine ca. 2,80 m, also über die Ladung gehoben. Ausgelöst werden diese Mechanismen durch eine Rechnereinheit, die mit Hilfe von Sensoren, die - z. B. auf Ultra­ schallbasis oder anderen geeigneten Messmöglichkeiten - die Geschwindigkeit, den Raum vor dem rollenden Fahrzeug, den noch möglichen Bremsweg und den Platz vor und über dem Fahrzeug messen.

On two columns screwed to the frame the cabin is raised approx. 2.80 m, i.e. over the load. These are triggered Mechanisms by a computer unit, which with the help of sensors, which - z. B. on Ultra sound based or other suitable measurement options - the speed, the space in front of the rolling vehicle, the braking distance still possible and the space in front and over measure the vehicle. In the inevitable danger of a rear-end collision, the Computer unit the hinges that hold the cabin on the frame and sets the Lifting process in motion.
