Description
Passenger Safety Barriers, Associated Apparatus and Vehicles and Methods
Technical Field
The invention relates to the field of passenger service vehicles. In particular, but not exclusively, the invention relates to a passenger safety barrier for a passenger service vehicle, as well as associated apparatus, structures and methods.
The term passenger service vehicle may encompass buses, coaches, or the like, or other such road vehicles for transport of passengers.
Background
Significant innovation and technology development has occurred in recent years in relation to the design of passenger service vehicles. In particular, there has been a continued drive towards providing vehicles that allow for improved passenger capacity, aesthetic styling and ergonomics, while at the same time maintaining or improving the safety passengers using those vehicles.
Some such vehicles can be considered to comprise various levels, or decks, having passenger seating. Passengers may need to ascend a staircase in order to reach a particular deck. Those staircases may be provided between a lower passenger deck and an upper passenger deck in the vehicle, or may even be provided between a lower region (e.g. roadside access region) of the vehicle and a passenger deck. The latter configurations are more common on so-called coach type vehicles, which typically have an elevated passenger seating area.
This background serves only to set a scene to allow a skilled reader to better appreciate the following description. Therefore, none of the above discussion should necessarily be taken as an acknowledgement that that discussion is part of the state of the art or is common general knowledge. One or more aspects/embodiments of the invention may or may not address one or more of the background issues.
Summary
According to a first aspect of the invention, there is provided a barrier, such as a passenger safety barrier, for a passenger service vehicle, as well as associated structures, apparatus and methods. Such barriers may be usable to improve the safety of such passenger vehicles. Such barriers may also not significantly intrude into the passenger space, and appear aesthetically pleasing.
The barrier may comprise a barrier member. The barrier may comprise a barrier retainer. In some examples, the retainer may be formed with or from a portion of the interior structure of the vehicle. The barrier member may be configured to be at least partially retained (e.g. partially or fully retained) with the retainer in a first configuration.
The barrier member may be configured to be extendable from the retainer so as to provide a passenger barrier in a second configuration.
In the first configuration, the barrier member may be concealed, or substantially concealed (e.g. within the retainer). In those examples, the retainer may be considered to be a barrier housing. The barrier member may be retractable from the second configuration to the first configuration, so as to conceal, or substantially conceal, the barrier member (e.g. when not in use).
In the second configuration, the barrier member may be extendable from the retainer so as to provide a passenger barrier across a passenger access channel, such as a gangway, staircase or the like. The barrier member may be extendable from the retainer so as to provide a passenger barrier at an upper region of a staircase (e.g. at an upper, or upmost, step of a staircase). Such a staircase may be used to communicate passengers between lower and upper decks, or between an access region and a passenger deck of a passenger service vehicle.
The barrier member may be slidably extendable and/or retractable from and/or to the retainer so as to provide a passenger barrier in a first and second configuration. The barrier member may be manually extendable/retractable (e.g. extendable by hand).
The retainer may be integrally formed from the interior structure of the vehicle (e.g. integrally formed as a portion of the interior structure). The interior structure may be a passenger partition structure, such as a stairwell partition, railing, or the like. The interior structure may be seat structure, gangway structure, floor structure, or the like.
The barrier member may be rigid. The barrier member may comprise a tubular portion.
The tubular structure could be box, oval, round cross-section, or the like. The barrier member may be configured to co-axially extend and retract to and from the retainer.
The barrier member may be retained within a corresponding tubular portion of retainer.
The barrier member may comprise a block, or stop, or the like. The block may be provided at an end region of the barrier member, and may be configured to prevent the barrier member from being entirely retained with the retainer. The block may be configured for ease of manual use (e.g. use by hand so as to extend the barrier member from the retainer).
The barrier member may be configured (e.g. the block may be configured) to abut, or be retained, within a further interior structure when the barrier member is extended to the second configuration. In other words, the passenger safety barrier may comprise a complementary barrier receiver, for receiving the barrier member in the second configuration. The barrier receiver may be formed from a portion of the interior structure of the vehicle.
The barrier member may be telescopically retained with the retainer in a first configuration, and expandably extended to provide the second configuration.
The passenger safety barrier may comprise two or more barrier members, and corresponding barrier retainers. The safety barrier may be configured such that some or all of the barrier members extend/retract together.
The passenger safety barrier may comprise a locking mechanism, configured to inhibit movement of the barrier member, for example, when extended to the second configuration. The locking mechanism may be a user-actuatable mechanism. The locking mechanism may be self-actuated, when the barrier member is extended from the first to the second configuration.
The locking mechanism may comprise complementary mating portions, such as one or more protrusions and recesses, provided at the barrier member and the retainer. In such examples, when the barrier member is extended, the complementary mating portions may mate together to inhibit further movement of the barrier member. In such a configuration, the barrier member may be considered to be in a locked configuration.
Release from the locked configuration may be achieved by force applied to at least one of the mating portions, which may actuate release from the mating configuration (e.g. and allow the barrier member to be retracted within the retainer). The force may be applied directed by a user to the locking mechanism (e.g. via a user-operable button, or switch, or the like), or may be applied indirectly. For example, a particular force applied to the barrier member urging the member towards the first configuration may cause the locking mechanism to unlock, and allowing the barrier member to be retracted.
The barrier member may be biased towards a particular configuration (e.g. biased towards the second configuration). The passenger safety barrier may comprise a locking mechanism configured to inhibit movement of the barrier member when retained in the first configuration. Unlocking from the first configuration may urge the barrier member to the second configuration.
According to a further aspect, there is provided a passenger safety barrier for a passenger service vehicle, comprising: a barrier member, and a barrier housing, the housing forming a portion of a passenger area within the vehicle, and the barrier member being at least partially retained with the housing in a first configuration, and extendable, such as slidably extendable, from the housing so as to provide a passenger barrier in a second configuration.
According to a further aspect, there is provided a passenger safety barrier for a passenger service vehicle, comprising: a barrier member, and a barrier retainer, the retainer being formed from a portion of the interior structure of the vehicle; and the barrier member being at least partially retained with the retainer in a first configuration, and extendable from the retainer so as to provide a passenger barrier in a second configuration.
According to a further aspect of the invention there is provided a passenger service vehicle interior structure (e.g. body structure) configured as a retainer to retain a barrier member of a passenger safety barrier.
The retainer may be configured to be at least partially retain (e.g. partially and/or fully retain) a barrier member in a first configuration (e.g. concealed configuration).
The structure may be configured to be integrally formed with the interior structure of the vehicle (e.g. a portion of the interior structure). The interior structure may be a passenger partition structure, such as a stairwell partition, railing, or the like. Similarity, the interior structure may be seat structure, gangway structure, floor structure, or the like.
According to a further aspect of the invention there is provided a passenger service vehicle interior structure configured as a receiver to receive a barrier member of a passenger safety barrier.
In such a configuration, such a barrier member may be configured to be received/retained with the interior structure when the barrier member is extended to a second, i.e. deployed, configuration.
According to a further aspect of the invention, there is provided a barrier member for use with any of the above aspects.
According to a further aspect of the invention, there is provided a passenger service vehicle comprising a barrier, such as a passenger safety barrier.
The barrier may comprise any of the features of the above aspects.
According to a further aspect of the invention, there is provided method of improving passenger safety, comprising: retaining a barrier member of a passenger safety barrier at least partially with a barrier retainer in a first configuration, the barrier retainer being formed from a portion of the interior structure of the vehicle; and extending the barrier member from the retainer so as to provide a passenger barrier in a second configuration.
The method may comprise extending the barrier member prior to movement of the vehicle.
According to a further aspect, there is provided use of any of the above aspects for improving passenger safety on a passenger service vehicle.
The invention includes one or more corresponding aspects, embodiments or features in isolation or in various combinations whether or not specifically stated (including claimed) in that combination or in isolation. For example, features associated with particular recited embodiments relating to the safety barrier, per se, may be equally be appropriate as features of embodiments relating the passenger service vehicle, and vice versa. As will be appreciated, features associated with particular recited embodiments relating to methods, may be equally appropriate as features of embodiments relating specifically to apparatus, and vice versa.
It will also be appreciated that one or more embodiments/aspects may be useful for providing a safety barrier for passenger service vehicles.
The above summary is intended to be merely exemplary and non-limiting.
Brief Description of the Figures
A description is now given, by way of example only, with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which:-Figures 1 a and lb show examples of passenger service vehicles; Figure 2 shows an example of a forward staircase of the vehicle shown in Figure 1 b; Figure 3 shows a perspective cut-away view of an internal passenger area of a vehicle shown in Figure lb and 2; Figures 4a and 4b show a barrier; Figures 5a and 5b show example of a barrier in use; and Figures 6a, 6b and 7 show examples of a barrier having a locking mechanism.
Description of Specific Embodiments
Figure la shows a perspective representation of a passenger service vehicle 100, which, in this example, is shown as a vehicle 100 having both a lower passenger deck (lower deck) and an upper passenger deck 120 (upper deck). Such vehicles 100 are commonly referred to as twin-deck, or double-deck, vehicles 100, and comprise a plurality of passenger seats on each deck.
Figure lb shows a perspective representation of an alternative passenger service vehicle 200, having essentially only a single passenger deck 210 (albeit there may be provided a few passenger seats on lower sections of the vehicle also). The vehicle 200 shown in Figure lb can be considered to be a coach-type vehicle, in which the passenger deck 210 is elevated above a luggage locker area 205, or the like. In some examples of such vehicles, the passenger deck 210 may extend for substantially the length of the vehicle 200, and so above a driver area (as shown by the dashed lines 215).
Such vehicles typically comprise a staircase, either to allow passengers to move between decks (for example in the vehicle of Figure 1 a), or to allow passengers to move from a lower access area of the vehicle to a passenger deck (for example in vehicle of Figure lb). Figure 2 shows an example of a forward staircase 230 of the vehicle 200 shown in Figure lb, through open passenger doors, which allow passengers to alight onto the vehicle and move to the passenger deck 210.
When such vehicles 100, 200 are moving, the staircases 230 can present a hazard to any passenger who may be travelling on the vehicle 100, 200. For example, passengers will, from time to time, decide to move seats, stand up, or otherwise move around in the passenger area, when such vehicles 100, 200 are in motion. In the event that the vehicle 100, 200 has to change speed suddenly, either by accelerating or braking, or in the event that the passenger loses their balance, then the staircases presents a potential tall hazard, and so a risk ot injury.
As such, it can be helptul to mitigate or reduce the risk of passengers tailing down the stairs, or even falling at any other passenger access area, such as along a gangway, or the like. Is some cases, a pivoting gate or fence may be provided at a particular location in the vehicle, such as transverse a staircase, or gangway. However, such pivoting gates not only intrude into the overall passenger space, but also degrade the aesthetic appearance ot the interior of the vehicle 100, 200. Such degradation can have leave passengers with a negative travelling experience. Furthermore, any pivoting gates, or the like, could protrude into the passenger area even when not in use, which may lead to passengers snagging or otherwise catching clothing, or the like, on such gates.
Figure 3 shows a perspective cut-away view ot an internal passenger area 250 ot a vehicle 200 shown in Figure lb and 2, in which the staircase 230 leads from a lower access region of the vehicle 200 to the passenger deck 210.
Here, as shown, the vehicle 200 comprises a passenger safety barrier 300, as will be turther described. Such barriers 300 may be usable to improve the safety of passenger service vehicles 200, while avoiding signiticantly intruding into the passenger area 250, and being aesthetically pleasing.
The barrier 300 comprises a barrier member 310, as well as a barrier retainer 320. As is shown in Figure 3, the retainer 320 is tormed from a portion of the interior structure of the vehicle. In this case, the interior structure is a passenger partition structure 400 of the staircase 230.
Here, the interior structure 400 comprises a plurality of tubular elements, one of which comprises the barrier retainer 320. As such, the barrier member 310 is configured to be at least partially retained (e.g. partially or fully retained) within the retainer 320 in a first configuration. Further, the barrier member 310 can be extended from the retainer 320 so as to provide a passenger barrier 300 in a second configuration.
Figures 4a and 4b show the barrier 300 in use. For clarity, the whole of the interior structure 400 is not shown. Here, the barrier member 310 can be considered to be a rigid tubular portion, which is configured to co-axially extend and retract to and from the retainer 320. As such, the barrier member 310 can be considered to be retained within a corresponding tubular portion of retainer 320.
The barrier member shown in Figure 4a and 4b comprises a block 330, or stop. The block 330 is provided at an end region of the barrier member 310, and is configured to prevent the barrier member 310 from being entirely retained with the retainer 320.
Further, the block 330 is configured for ease of manual use (e.g. use by hand so as to extend the barrier member 310 from the retainer 320).
In Figure 4a, the barrier 300 is shown in a first configuration, in which the barrier member 310 can be considered to be concealed, or substantially concealed (e.g. within the retainer 320). As such, when not in use, the barrier member 310 is retractable from a second configuration (i.e. deployed configuration) to the first configuration, so as to conceal, or substantially conceal, the barrier member 310.
Figure 4b shows the barrier being slidably moved to the second deployed configuration, in which the barrier member 310 is being extended from the retainer 320 so as to provide a passenger barrier across a particular passenger access channel, such as a gangway, staircase or the like.
In the example shown in Figure 3, the barrier member 310 is extendable from the retainer 320 so as to provide a passenger barrier at an upper region of the staircase 230 (e.g. at an upper, or upmost, step of a staircase).
In some examples, and as is shown in Figure Sa and 5b, the barrier member 310 is configured (e.g. the block 330 is configured) to abut, or be retained, within a further interior structure when the barrier member 310 is extended. In some examples, the passenger safety barrier 300 comprises a complementary barrier receiver 340, for receiving the barrier member 310 in the second configuration. The barrier receiver 340 may also be formed from a portion of the interior structure of the vehicle. In Figure Sb, the barrier receiver 340 is integrally formed with a passenger partition 410.
It will readily be appreciated that while shown only with a single barrier member 310, in further examples, the passenger safety barrier 300 may comprise two or more barrier members 310, and corresponding barrier retainers 320. The safety barrier 300 may be configured such that some or all of the barrier members extend/retract together.
Figure Ba and Sb show a further example of the passenger safety barrier 300, in which the barrier 300 comprises a locking mechanism 500, configured to inhibit movement of the barrier member 310, for example, when extended to the second configuration.
Here, the locking mechanism 500 is self-actuated when the barrier member is extended from the first to the second configuration.
The locking mechanism 500 comprises complementary mating portions 505, 510, shown as a protrusion 505 provided with the barrier member 310 and a complementary aperture 510 provided with the retainer 320. As such, when the barrier member 310 is extended, the protrusion 505 extends into the aperture so as to mate, and inhibit the barrier member 310 from further movement. In such a configuration, the barrier member may be considered to be in a locked configuration. Release from the locked configuration can be achieved by force applied to the protrusion 505 to urge it out of the aperture and allow the barrier member 310 to be retracted within the retainer.
The force may be applied directed by a user to the locking mechanism (e.g. via a user-operable button, or switch, or the like), or may be applied indirectly. For example, in some cases, sufficient force applied to the barrier member 310 to urge the member towards the first configuration may cause the locking mechanism 500 to unlock, and allowing the barrier member 310 to be retracted.
Figure 7 shows a further example in which the locking mechanism 500 is configured to additionally or alternatively lock the barrier member 310 in a first concealed configuration. Again, a protrusion 505 is retained within an aperture defined in the retainer 320.
In some examples, the barrier member 310 is biased towards a particular configuration (e.g. biased towards the second configuration). For example, the barrier 300 may comprise a spring, or gas piston, configured to urge the barrier member 310 towards the second configuration.
In use, the barrier member 310 can be extended during times of movement of the vehicle 100, 200 so as to mitigate the possibility of a passenger falling, for example, down the staircase 230. When the vehicle 100, 200 is stationary, the barrier member can be retracted and concealed within a retainer 320, formed from a portion on the interior structure of the vehicle 100, 200. As such, the barrier 300 is both unobtrusive and aesthetically pleasing.
Further, in the examples described, the barrier member 310 can be rigid as it is configured to slidably extend/retract to and from a corresponding tubular section of the interior. As such, the barrier member 310 can provide sufficient support against an accidental fall onto the barrier 300, when in a deployed configuration.
While in the above example, the barrier 300 has been described with specific reference to a providing a barrier at a staircase 230, it will readily be appreciated that the barrier 300 may equally be provided at other regions of the vehicle (e.g. across a gangway, or the like). Further, while the retainer 320 has be described in relation to being formed with a passenger partition, it will readily be appreciated that the retainer may be formed for another internal structure, such as a portion of a seat, or flooring or the like. A skilled reader will readily be able to implement those further embodiments.
Further, while the barrier member 310 has been described as a tubular extendable member, in some examples, the member 310 can be configured to telescopically be retained with the retainer in a first configuration, and telescopically expand and extend to provide the second configuration.
Also, although in the described examples, the barrier member 310 is concealed within the retainer 320, in further examples, the barrier member 310 may equally be retained over the retainer (e.g. slide over the retainer). In such examples, the barrier member 310 may still be considered to be at least partially retained with the retainer 320 in a first configuration, and extendable from the retainer 320 so as to provide a passenger barrier in a second configuration.
It will be appreciated that any of the aforementioned barrier, interior structures, etc., may have other functions in addition to the mentioned functions, and that these functions may be performed by the same barrier, structure, etc., particularly in embodiments in which the retainer is formed with a portion of the interior structure of the vehicle.
The applicant hereby discloses in isolation each individual feature described herein and any combination of two or more such features, to the extent that such features or combinations are capable of being carried out based on the present specification as a whole in the light of the common general knowledge of a person skilled in the art, irrespective of whether such features or combinations of features solve any problems disclosed herein, and without limitation to the scope of the claims. The applicant indicates that aspects of the present invention may consist of any such individual feature or combination of features. In view of the foregoing description it will be evident to a person skilled in the art that various modifications may be made within the scope of the invention.
