Definitions

  • the invention relates to a recovery vehicle suitable for heavy loads such as an aircraft, comprising a mobile chassis upon which a lifting element is provided.
  • Such a recovery vehicle is known in practice and is used for the recovery of an aircraft that has gone off the runway.
  • the known recovery vehicle used for this purpose is a crane. It is also possible to use a recovery system involving several cranes.
  • a drawback of the known recovery vehicle and recovery system is that moving the aircraft, and in particular lifting it, is liable to cause extra damage to the aircraft, which may give rise to an increase in costs and occasionally, may result in the loss of the aircraft. It is the object of the invention to provide a recovery vehicle with which this drawback is prevented.
  • the recovery vehicle according to the invention is characterised in that the lifting element comprises an air cushion.
  • the recovery vehicle proposed in accordance with the invention can also be used for the recovery of other types of heavy loads that are easily damaged and where damage must be avoided as much as possible.
  • the recovery vehicle proposed in accordance with the invention has the advantage that during lifting, the air cushion is able to adapt to the shape of the part of the air craft it supports .
  • the lifting element In order to endow the recovery vehicle with a wide range of deployment, it is desirable for the lifting element to comprise an adjustable lifting platform and for the air cushion to be provided on this lifting platform.
  • the recovery vehicle is preferably embodied such that the height of the lifting platform in relation to the chassis, is adjustable. Especially with respect to the deployability of the recovery vehicle on uneven ground or when the aircraft to be recovered slopes, it is advantageous for the recovery vehicle to be embodied such that the lifting platform can be adjusted elevationally in relation to the chassis.
  • the adjustability of the lifting platform is aided by the fact that the lifting platform is mounted on the chassis by interposition of six hydraulic cylinders, with these cylinders being placed such as to make the lifting platform adjustable in the x-, y- and z-direction.
  • the recovery vehicle is characterised in that the same possesses crawler tracks. This makes the recovery vehicle well deployable on unimproved terrain.
  • the invention is also embodied in a recovery system that is characterised by two or more co-operating recovery vehicles of the kind discussed above.
  • each recovery vehicle prefferably possess a measuring device for determining the height of the lifting platform of that recovery vehicle.
  • each recovery vehicle may suffice for each recovery vehicle to possess a measuring device for determining the height of the lifting platform in relation to the chassis of that recovery vehicle.
  • a reference marker it is desirable for a reference marker to be provided on solid ground, and for the recovery vehicles to be designed to interact with the reference marker for determining the height at which the recovery vehicles are situated.
  • the recovery system is further preferably characterised in that it is provided with a computer system for gearing the operation of the recovery vehicles to one another.
  • the figure shows two recovery vehicles indicated by reference number 1.
  • Each recovery vehicle 1 individually as well as both recovery vehicles 1 shown, or possibly further recovery vehicles that may be part of an integrated recovery system, are subject to protection as defined in the appended claims.
  • the recovery vehicle 1 is mobile and for this purpose preferably provided with crawler tracks 2, to enable the recovery vehicle 1 to be deployed in numerous kinds of terrain, even if the ground is soft.
  • the recovery vehicle 1 possesses a lifting element 3 comprising an air cushion 4. This air cushion 4 is positioned on a lifting platform 5, which in relation to the chassis 6 of the recovery vehicle 1, is adjustable in height.
  • the lifting platform 5 with the air cushion placed thereon prefferably be adjustable in an elevated position, so as to enable the recovery vehicle or the recovery system to be deployable on hilly terrain.
  • the recovery vehicle is suitably realised such that the lifting platform 5 is mounted on the chassis 6 with the interposition of six hydraulic cylinders 7, with said cylinders 7 being placed such as to render the lifting platform 5 adjustable in the x ⁇ , y- and z-direction.
  • each recovery vehicle 1 may be equipped with a measuring device for the determination of the height of the lifting platform 5 of that recovery vehicle 1.
  • This height of the lifting platform 5 may also be related to, for example, the respective height of the chassis 6 of the recovery vehicle.
  • a reference marker may be provided on solid ground, for example, an indicator post 9, and for the recovery vehicles 1 to be equipped to work together with this reference marker 9 for the determination of the height on which the respective recovery vehicles 1 are located.
