Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a motor vehicle with doors provided with protection devices.
  • the invention relates in particular to motor vehicles of the so-called “armoured” type, intended to be utilised for the forces of order or the like, or for the transport of persons subjected to a custodial regime or to a protective regime, such as, for example, prisones, state functionaries etc.
  • the door used as a shield or barrier does not however offer total protection from the enemy fire in that the space between the lower edge of the door and the ground is not protected.
  • the object of the invention is to propose a motor vehicle which allows this disadvantage to be remedied.
  • a motor vehicle characterised in that the lower part of the inner face of at least one side access door of the passenger compartment has a bullet-proof apron connected to it, capable of assuming a folded rest configuration in which it lies within the outline of the door, and an unfolded, use configuration, in which it extends downwardly covering the space between the lower edge of the door and the ground.
  • the reference numeral 1 generally indicates a motor vehicle with at least one side access door 2 to the passenger compartment.
  • a bullet-proof apron As the lower part of the inner face of the door 2 there is connected a bullet-proof apron generally indicated 4.
  • the apron 4 has a structure of type known per se, suitable to stop projectiles from firearms.
  • the bullet-proof apron 4 comprises two portions of sheets 4a and 4b ( Figure 3) interconnected together and articulated along a substantially horizontal fold line 5.
  • the sheet 4a of the apron 4 has its edge fixed to the inner face of the door 2 with means of a type known per se, such as screws or rivets or other.
  • the bullet-proof apron 4 can assume a folded rest configuration, shown in Figure 1, in which the two sheets 4a and 4b are juxtaposed over one another. In this condition the apron 4 lies within the shape of the door 2 and is retained and fixed to the door by means of a flexible retaining strap 6.
  • This strap conveniently has one end securely fixed to the door 2 or to the apron 4 and the other end attachable to the door by means of a press stud such as that indicated 7 in Figure 2.
  • the arrangement is conveniently such that when the retaining strap 6 is released from the door the bullet-proof apron 4 can unfold and automatically assume, by the action of gravity, the use configuration shown in Figure 3, in which it covers the space between the lower edge of the door 2 and the ground, cooperating with the door 2 itself to offer a more complete and secure shield for a person intending to respond to enemy fire in one of the above-described emergency situations.
  • the invention is not limited to the application of a bullet-proof apron to a single door of the motor vehicle, such an apron could be provided at least on the front side doors if not on all access doors of the passenger compartment of the motor vehicle itself.
