Abstract

The system, which is activated in the event of a collision, comprises an impact sensor 14, which transmits an external force via a pressure tappet 9, a tappet 6, and a substantially vee- shaped push rod 5 to a piston 1 located in a piston slide block 2. The piston moves back through the piston slide block until locked in a retracted position, and the piston head progressively engages conventional vehicle control members - accelerator 22, brake 23, clutch 24 and hand brake 25. When the hand brake is engaged, a shoe tappet 28 is pushed in a rearward direction and engages a substantially vee-shaped brake arm (31) Fig. 2 (not shown) having a brake shoe (34) at the end of each limb. The shoe tappet pushes the brake arm such that the brake arm pivots about two supports (33). The brake shoes drop onto the road surface, and in this way additional braking can be obtained. The system can be reset by releasing the piston from the retracted position in the piston slide block. A further embodiment, Figs. 6-8 (not shown), comprises an H-shaped pressure tappet. <IMAGE>
