Abstract

A road vehicle with a coupled trailer has a coupling with an adjustment facility. The towing vehicle coupling [X] can be adjusted transversely, eg hydraulically, dependent upon the direction of a reversing operation. This controls the movement of the vehicle trailer. The coupling points on the trailer are fixed.

Description

Basis der Idee ist, die u.a. an Zugmaschinen mittig angebrachte Anhängerkupplung axial (d.h. quer zur Fahrtrichtung nach links und rechts verstellbar zu machen.Base the idea is that Trailer coupling centrally attached to tractors axial (i.e. adjustable to the left and right across the direction of travel close.

Diese Verstellung der Lage der AHK könnte sowohl hydraulisch oder über eine Welle erfolgen.This Adjusting the location of the AHK could be both hydraulic or via a wave occur.

Das axiale Verstellen der AHK bewirkt (insbesondere bei Zweiachsanhängern mit gelenkter Vorderachse) eine Verstellung des Winkels derselben und somit die Fahrtrichtung, bzw. des Kurvenradius (insbesondere beim Rückwärtsfahren).The axial adjustment of the towbar (especially with two-axle trailers with steered front axle) an adjustment of the angle of the same and thus the direction of travel, or the radius of the curve (especially when Drive backwards).

Bisher erfolgt diese Winkelverstellung der gelenkten Vorderachse dadurch, das der Fahrer durch ständiges Gegenlenken der Zugmaschine das Heck dieser entgegengesetzt der gewünschten Kurvenrichtung dreht und somit den Stellwinkel der gelenkten Achse des Anhängers verändert.So far this angular adjustment of the steered front axle takes place by that the driver by constant Counter-steer the rear of the tractor opposite this desired Direction of the curve rotates and thus the setting angle of the steered axle of the trailer changed.

Beim Einsatz der verstellbaren AHK entfiele dieses „doppelte Gegenlenken". Es müsste nur noch der Lenkeinschlag verändert und die Rückwärtsfahrt eingeleitet werden. Die Winkelverstellung der gelenkten Hinterachse des Anhängers erfolgt dann über die Verstellung der AHK.At the Using the adjustable towbar would eliminate this "double countersteering". It just had to still changed the steering angle and initiated the reverse journey become. The angle of the steered rear axle of the trailer is adjusted then over the adjustment of the AHK.

das die AHK überhaupt regelbar aus der Mitte bzw. axial (d.h. quer zur Fahrtrichtung) verstellt werden kann, die Steuerung vom Fahrerhaus erfolgt und die jeweilige Lage hier angezeigt wird die Ansteuerung der verstellbaren AHK aber auch über eine Elektronik/einer Steuerung die die erforderlichen Daten a) über den Lenkeinschlag/Vorderradstellung der Zugmaschine b) über Sensoren (Radar/Ultraschall oder Näherungssensoren) erhält und diese logisch umsetzt erfolgt. Bzw. der Steuerung noch ein Mikrocomputer zugefügt ist, der mittels enstsprechender Software die Daten erfasst und z.B. ein automatisches, programmgesteuertes, geregeltes Rückwärtsfahren/Rangieren einleitet und steuert.that the AHK at all adjustable from the center or axially (i.e. transverse to the direction of travel) can be adjusted control from the cab and the respective location is displayed here the control the adjustable towbar also over an electronics / control system that provides the required data a) about the Steering angle / front wheel position of the tractor b) via sensors (Radar / ultrasound or proximity sensors) receives and logically implement them he follows. Respectively. of control added a microcomputer is who records the data using appropriate software and e.g. an automatic, program-controlled, regulated reversing / maneuvering initiates and controls.
