Abstract

An auxilliary driving device, attached usually but not necessarily to the undersides of the vehicle suspension or body/chassis but independent of the main vehicle drives, to give a vehicle additional manoeuvrability and/or traction. The device enables precise low speed lateral/longitudinal vehicle movement, and axial vehicle rotation to facilitate parking, manoeuvring in confined spaces, traction assistance on slippery, uneven or fragmented surfaces, anti theft protection, vehicle jacking and wireless remote control for vehicle direction and speed.

Description

"Sidewinder" Auxiliary Vehicle Manoeuvring Device
Description of In ven ϋon
[0001] An auxiliary driving device, attached usually but not necessarily to the undersides of the vehicle suspension or body/chassis but independent of the main vehicle drives, to give a vehicle additional manoeuvrability and/or traction. The device enables precise low speed lateral/ϊongϋudirtal vehicle movement, and axial vehicle rotation to facilitate:
[0002] A] Parking - sideways manoeuvring.
[0003] B] Manoeuvring in confined spaces - rotation around a forward, central or rear axis.
[0004] C] Traction assistance on slippery, uneven or fragmented surfaces, both directly when in alignment parallel to normal drive direction [See Figure 1b] and by means of sideways vehicle realignment when the device drive units are aligned at 90 degrees to the vehicle's normal drive direction [See Figure 1a].
Additional Possible Functions
[0005] D] Anti theft - while activated the vehicle cannot be driven forward or backwards without the deactivation control; which can be removed from the vehicle.
[0006] E] Vehicle jacking, facilitating wheel changing and underbody inspection/maintenance.
[0007] F] Wireless remote control for vehicle direction and speed. The vehicle can be manoeuvred remotely. i-
Nlajor Benefits of This Manoeuvring Device [0008]
1. Driver skill, stress and time needed for parking are all much reduced.
2. Environmental Impact - Fuel usage in confined space manoeuvring is almost eliminated.
3. Environmental Impact - Vehicle Space is becoming increasingly limited - this device, if universally adopted, would enable parking spaces to be at least a metre shorter. Sliore vehicles can be parked in any given space.
4. Increased vehicle manoeuvrability in confined spaces. Vehicles can be stored and have access to areas that would otherwise not be usable.
5. Much reduced steering component and tyre wear.
6. Increased off road vehicle traction with some applications of this device - a possible alternative to ail wheel drive.
7. Theft Prevention when the units are locked in their extended positions
8. Remote vehicle operation.
Problems This Device Overcomes
This device aims to overcome the following disadvantages of auxiliary manoeuvring devices:
[0009] A] Slowness of activation and de-activation
[0010] B] Unacceptable reduction of vehicle underbody ground clearance, [0011 ] C] Unacceptable additional weight, [0011] C] Unacceptable additional weight,
[0012] D] Small wheels' inability to cope with uneven or fragmented ground surfaces,
[0013] E] Larger wheels' and tyres bulk and weight, [0014] F] The unacceptable expense, weight, additional complexity and unintuitive operation of mechanical steering mechanisms, [0015] G] Accommodation of vehicle steering and independent suspension mechanisms. Conventional Mode for Fitting the Invention [0016] Independent Suspension Bolting the manoeuvring units to the undersides of the suspension lower pivot link with location for upward bracing struts onto the undersides of the wheel hubs or, where strength allows, lower suspension arms - at the pivot points for the wheel hubs. Alternative Application Mode(s) for this Invention [0017] A] Live/Beam Axle - bolting to the undersides of the axles. [0018] B] Limitation of downward wheel movement by
Cables/Electronics/Hydraulics instead of struts during the downward actuation of the drive struts. [0019] C] Parallel instead of 90 degree alignment as auxiliary off-road vehicle traction improver.
[0020] D] Special track designs for different terrains [0021] E] Extended single lateral/longitudinal track design for improved off-road grip. [0022] F] Power units can be positioned in different locations, [See example in Figure 2e] not necessarily on the drive struts as in
Figures 2a,b,&c ] to accommodate vehicle design characteristics, and linked to the drives by chains, belts, shafts or other power transmission devices. Practical Application
[0023] A] Parking - sideways manoeuvring; access to confined areas. [0024] B] Manoeuvring in confined spaces - rotation around a forward, central or rear axis. [0025] C] Traction assistance in difficult terrain - when auxiliary units are aligned parallel to vehicle direction - and sideways vehicle realignment to regain grip, with applications where the drives are positioned at 90 degrees to normal vehicle direction. [0026] D] Anti theft - while activated the vehicle cannot be driven forward or backwards without the deactivation control; which could be removed from the vehicle. [0027] E] Vehicle jacking, facilitating wheel changing and underbody inspection/maintenance.
Safety - Prevention of Accidental Extension
[0028] A] For safety, a leaf or coil spring tensioner to keep the strut in its elevated position would be incorporated. This would make upward retraction almost totally spring activated and act as a fail safe device against the device being extended through activation caused by breakage or malfunction.
[0029] B] Manoeuvring speeds of up to 8kph should be achievable using one of the above power sources with the engine running in PARK or NEUTRAL. A safety circuit would only allow operation of the device when the vehicle gear selector is in one of these positions.
Cl Prevention of Vehicle Damage caused by Inexperienced
Operation -
The device could be used in conjunction with suitably a reprogrammed electronic proximity sensor guided parking assistance.
