Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a vehicle recovery device and in particular, to a vehicle recovery device that is a harness for the vehicle's own wheels using one or more of them as a winch drum or spool.
  • Vehicle recovery devices are conventionally available. These include a wide range of products, including a fixed winch which is generally attached to a forward portion of the vehicle and which can be used to pull the vehicle in a forward direction. However such winches are generally expensive and heavy, and can require regular maintenance.
  • the present invention is directed to a vehicle recovery device, which may at least partially overcome at least one of the abovementioned disadvantages or provide the consumer with a useful or commercial choice.
  • the present invention is a vehicle recovery device, comprising: a pair of flexible elongate longitudinal members;
  • a second attachment assembly at a second end of the flexible harness assembly for attaching the second end to a vehicle wheel or to another portion of the flexible harness assembly.
  • the present invention is a method of recovery of a vehicle using a vehicle recovery device including a flexible harness assembly having a pair of flexible elongate longitudinal members and a number of transverse members provided between the pair of longitudinal members in order to space the longitudinal members apart, at least one end of the flexible harness assembly provided with an attachment assembly to attach the harness assembly to another portion of the harness assembly, the method comprising: attaching a first end of the flexible harness assembly to another portion of the harness assembly about the at least one wheel of the vehicle which requires recovery; attaching another portion of the flexible harness assembly to an external anchor point with the harness assembly extending aligned with the at least one wheel; and driving the vehicle toward the anchor point using the at least one wheel as a winch drum to take up the harness assembly.
  • a length of each of the transverse members in the plurality of transverse members corresponds approximately with a width of a corresponding vehicle tyre tread.
  • a spacing along the longitudinal members between each transverse member in the plurality of transverse members is approximately one fifth of the circumference of a corresponding vehicle tyre tread.
  • a spacing along the longitudinal members between each transverse member in the plurality of transverse members is between approximately one third and one tenth of the circumference of a corresponding vehicle tyre tread.
  • the present invention resides broadly in a vehicle recovery device including a flexible harness assembly having a pair of flexible elongate longitudinal members, and a number of transverse members provided between the pair of longitudinal members in order to space the longitudinal members apart, at least one end of the flexible harness assembly provided with an attachment assembly to attach the harness assembly to an external anchor point or to another portion of the harness assembly.
  • the vehicle recovery device of the present invention uses one or more wheels of a vehicle, whether a wheel that is actually stuck or bogged or another wheel which is free of obstruction, as a winch drum or spool in order to draw a vehicle in a particular direction to escape difficulty.
  • the vehicle recovery device of the present invention includes a flexible harness assembly.
  • the flexible harness assembly will be of a configuration that is formed of more than one portion or member.
  • the harness assembly will typically be flexible in a longitudinal direction.
  • all portions of the harness assembly are flexible; however the longitudinal members and the transverse members may be at least partially rigid.
  • the harness assembly will typically have a ladder configuration.
  • a pair of longitudinal members is preferably provided with a plurality of transverse members extending between the pair of longitudinal members.
  • the pair of longitudinal members and the transverse members may be of the same configuration or be different to one another. Further, the longitudinal members and transverse members may be formed of the same material or of a different material.
  • the longitudinal members and transverse members will be attached securely to one another in order to withstand the loads imposed on the harness assembly by the vehicle during recovery.
  • the mechanism of attachment of the longitudinal members to the transverse members will typically be dependent upon the materials and configuration of the respective members.
  • the harness assembly typically includes a pair of flexible elongate longitudinal members.
  • the longitudinal members can be of any length. Typically, the longitudinal members will be between 3 m and 20 m in length. It is likely that the vehicle recovery device of the present invention will be provided in a variety of lengths and therefore, the longitudinal members will differ in length depending upon the length desired.
  • the harness assembly is of a fixed length overall but may be constructed using materials that offer stretch.
  • Each longitudinal member may have any configuration sufficiently strong to withstand the loads applied.
  • the vehicle recovery device of the present invention may be used for a passenger vehicle, and it is expected that such vehicle will weigh at least 1000 kg, therefore the longitudinal members will be required to withstand the load imposed by that weight at least and the load imposed by using the wheel of the vehicle as a winch drum to draw that weight in a particular direction.
  • the vehicle recovery device of the present invention may also be used by any vehicle or machine and may be constructed of any materials having a required working strength.

  • the longitudinal members may be constructed such to provide tails of any length which may be used to connect to other attachment devices. Any configuration of attachment portion may be used.
  • each of the ends of each of the longitudinal members is provided with a loop opening.
  • the loop portion may be present already (such as when the longitudinal member is formed from a chain or similar having links), or the loop portion may need to be formed by folding a portion of the longitudinal member back upon itself and fixing the folded back portion relative to the longitudinal member.
  • any method of connection may be used but generally if a fold and fix methodology is followed, then the fixing material should generally be as strong or stronger than the longitudinal member itself.
  • appropriate fixing methodologies include: stitching; where the longitudinal member is a chain and a larger loop portion than the link itself is required, an extra link or shackle may be used; where the longitudinal member is a rope or similar, the rope may be folded back on itself, knotted about itself or spliced, or attached by some other method; and where the longitudinal member is a cable, a crimp connection or lock may be provided.
  • the longitudinal members may be manufactured from any suitable material including a strap member which is commonly known as "webbing".
  • Webbing is a strong fabric woven as a flat strip or tube of varying width and fibres often used in place of rope. The name webbing is thought to come from the meshed material frequently used in its construction, which resembles a web. It is a versatile component used in climbing, slack lining, furniture manufacturing, automobile safety, auto racing, towing, parachuting, military apparel, and many other fields.
  • webbing is also made from exceptionally high-strength material, such as Dyneema ® , and Kevlar ® . Webbing is both light and strong, with breaking strengths readily available in excess of 10,000 lb (44.4 kN).
  • webbing There are two basic constructions of webbing and either can be used according to the present invention.
  • Flat webbing is a solid weave, with seatbelts and most backpack straps being common examples.
  • Tubular webbing consists of a flattened tube, and is commonly used in climbing and industrial applications.
  • rope materials may also be used including various plaited rope products.
  • the harness assembly also includes a plurality of transverse members to space the longitudinal members apart.
  • the transverse members may be rigid or partially rigid but are preferably flexible.
  • the transverse members may be made from the same material as the longitudinal members but different types of transverse members may be used with different types of longitudinal members.
  • the transverse members are each attached to both of the longitudinal members, on each side or at each end of each transverse member.
  • the plurality of transverse members are spaced over the length of the longitudinal members, typically evenly.
  • a transverse member may be provided at one end of the harness assembly closer to the free ends of the longitudinal members than at the opposite end of the harness assembly where greater length free ends may be provided. This allows the end of the harness assembly where the greater length free ends are provided to be used to attach to an anchor point, whereas the opposite end is typically used to attach the harness assembly to the vehicle wheel.
  • the device may be reversed (end for end).
  • transverse member is attached at, rather than adjacent to, the ends of the longitudinal members and a loop portion is provided on either side of the transverse members rather than the longitudinal members.
  • the attachment used to attach the transverse members to the longitudinal members is typically dependent upon the material used. In the context of the particularly preferred embodiment where the longitudinal members and the transverse members are both formed from either webbing or rope, the preferred method of attachment will be stitching.
  • the strength of the seam should be at least as great and typically greater than the anticipated loads to be carried and/or the strength of the fabric to be joined, which in this case is typically webbing straps. To achieve this, there are several factors that need to be considered in the design. These include the following:
  • Thread type This is affected by the weight of the fabric. Generally, the lighter the fabric, the smaller the thread used. Accordingly, a smaller needle is used in order not to damage the weave of the fabric.
  • Stitch type This is typically determined by the type of seam needed for the design.
  • Stitches per inch This normally has a direct correlation to the size of the thread used and the stitch type. There is a fine balance between the security of the seam and overstitching. Too many stitches per inch will dramatically affect the strength of the seam by perforating the material. The number of rows of stitching also affects this. While more rows generally increase the strength of the seam, too many perforate the material as well.
  • Thread tension As lighter fabric and thread are used, the thread tension balance becomes more important.
  • these issues may be overcome through the use of a stronger strap.
  • the strength of the attachment will also typically be dependent upon the stitch pattern used and length.
  • a W-W pattern is stronger than a box X pattern.
  • a cross stitch pattern is stronger than a box stitch and the number of points depends upon the width of the webbing. The stitching should not be crowded or elongation of the fibres will be restricted.
  • Confluence wrapping can also be used.
  • a confluence wrap is a piece of webbing which encircles two or more other pieces of webbing at their confluence point to prevent a splitting out of the stitching.
  • At least one end of the harness assembly is typically provided with an attachment assembly in order to attach the harness assembly to an external anchor point or to an upper portion of the harness assembly.
  • the attachment assembly can be of any configuration, but a simpler attachment assembly is preferred which is operable without tools.
  • a loop portion may be provided at either end of each of the longitudinal members or as outlined above in the alternative configuration, can be provided on a transverse member. This configuration will typically allow attachment of either of the longitudinal members to each other, to other portions of the harness assembly or to or about a remote anchor point.
  • One end of the harness assembly is typically attached to or relative to a vehicle wheel, normally the vehicle wheel which is stuck or bogged.
  • one end of the harness assembly is attached to a vehicle wheel, normally to the rim of a vehicle wheel, and preferably through an opening in the rim.
  • each end of each longitudinal member is typically located adjacent the wheel and an elongate attachment member is passed through the rim and attached to the loop portion of both of the longitudinal members.
  • one of the loop portions may be passed through the opening in the vehicle rim and attached relative to the other of the loop openings. It is preferred that the harness assembly be evenly taken up by the vehicle wheel once the vehicle wheel rotates and therefore, it is preferred that the harness assembly be balanced so that it can be wound onto the wheel evenly to reduce weak points in the harness assembly.
  • the elongate attachment member is typically flexible as well.
  • the elongate attachment member can be provided in the form of a rope, cable, strap or chain but a rope or strap is preferred as they are softer and therefore are less prone to inflicting damage on the rim of the wheel.
  • Use of a rope or strap also allows the elongate attachment member to be attached to the loop portions by knotting for example.
  • one end of the harness assembly may be attached relative to a vehicle wheel.
  • one end of the harness assembly is attached about the vehicle wheel. This can be achieved by laying a portion of the harness assembly over an upper portion of the wheel and attaching the free end of the longitudinal members to an intermediate portion of the harness assembly about a lower portion of the wheel similarly to the manner of fitting snow chains to a wheel but with a portion of the harness assembly extending away from the wheel in the direction of the anchor point.
  • the wheel will again act as a winch drum but in this embodiment, the load may be spread more evenly than in the first configuration which tends to impose load on the attachment member by the edge of the opening on the rim.
  • the present invention resides in a method of recovery of a vehicle using a vehicle recovery device including a flexible harness assembly having a pair of flexible elongate longitudinal members and a number of transverse members provided between the pair of longitudinal members in order to space the longitudinal members apart, at least one end of the flexible harness assembly provided with an attachment assembly to attach the harness assembly to an external anchor point or to another portion of the harness assembly, the method including the steps of attaching a first end of one flexible harness assembly to one wheel of the vehicle which requires recovery, attaching another portion of the flexible harness assembly to an external anchor point with the harness assembly extending aligned with the at least one wheel, and driving the vehicle toward the anchor point using the at least one wheel as a winch drum to take up the harness assembly.
