Definitions

  • the present invention relates to devices energy absorption in general and wears more particularly on a vehicle, especially a rail vehicle, fitted with an energy absorption device.
  • shocks light at the front of a vehicle, especially rail, are absorbed by means of a bumper mounted on elements absorbent or on a hitch.
  • shocks can also be absorbed by means buffers, which show small displacements in the direction of the shock.
  • a known solution to this technical problem consists in integrate these deformable boxes under the cab into the chassis driving.
  • a major drawback of this solution is that the deformation of the deformable boxes of the prior art causes the driver's cab to deform and therefore more or less significant deformation, for example, of the barrier breeze and music stand.
  • the driver in the driver's cab can therefore be injured in an impact at the front of the vehicle.
  • An object of the invention is therefore a vehicle comprising such a device absorption without the disadvantages of energy absorption devices of the prior art.
  • Another object of the invention is a device energy absorption to keep intact the driver's compartment after a frontal collision or slightly crooked.
  • the vehicle includes a body and a driving cabin between which is interposed a form energy absorbing device general parallelepiped.
  • the opposite faces of said parallelepiped further large area are arranged in a plane formed by the face rear of the driver's cab and in a plane formed by the front of the body, respectively.
  • An advantage of the vehicle of the invention is to prevent destruction of the driver's cabin during an impact.
  • Another advantage of the vehicle of the invention is that the absorption device can be arranged on request.
  • Another advantage of the vehicle with a device energy absorption of the invention is to make it possible the evolution of depreciation capacities.
  • Another advantage of the vehicle of the invention is: allow not to penalize the characteristics of the position of conduct, namely: grip, visibility and ergonomics.
  • Another advantage of the vehicle of the invention is that energy absorbing device can be used several times.
  • Another advantage of the vehicle of the invention is: require reduced time to recondition the vehicle after collision.
  • Another advantage of the vehicle with a device energy absorption of the invention is the possibility of use already tested absorption sub-assemblies and therefore reduce costs.
  • Figure 1 is an exploded view of the device energy absorption according to the invention.
  • the absorption device of energy 1 is of general parallelepiped shape capable of being inserted between a driving cabin 2 and a case 3.
  • the opposite faces of said parallelepiped further large area are arranged in a plane formed by the face rear 2A of the driver's cabin 2 and in a formed plane by the front face 3A of the body 3, respectively.
  • the energy absorption device 1 includes a first plane ring 4 and a second plane ring 5, the first and second planar rings facing each other without to touch.
  • the first plane ring 4 being arranged parallel to the rear face 2A of the driver's cabin 2, the second flat ring 5 is arranged parallel to the front face 3A from the passenger room 3.
  • the first 4 and second 5 planar rings are united in their upper part with elements of pivot 6.
  • the pivoting elements 6 define an axis of X-X radial pivoting in the driver's cabin.
  • Each pivot element 6 comprises, for example, a first yoke 7 and a second yoke 8.
  • the first 7 and second 8 yokes are susceptible to include several elements 7A, 7B, the whole constituting the screed.
  • the lower part of the first yoke 7 is fixed to the upper part of the first plane ring 4.
  • the lower part of the second yoke 8 is attached to the upper part of the second plane ring 5.
  • the lower part of the energy absorption device 1 comprises at least one damping device 9, the characteristics are such that absorption takes place in the longitudinal direction of the driver's cabin.
  • the shock absorbers 9 at least partially penetrate the cab chassis 10.
  • the devices 9 shock absorbers are confined between the lower parts first 4 and second 5 planar rings.
  • Each damping device 9 is composed, by example, of a front element 9A capable of sliding in a fixed element 9B.
  • the rear end of the fixed element 9B of the device shock absorber 9 is supported on the lower part of the second plane ring 5.
  • the front element 9A is integral with the part lower of the first plane ring 4 and is maintained in initial position at the front end of the fixed element 9B.
  • the damping device 9 is, for example, in the form general cylindrical.
  • the front elements 9A are not in contact with the cabin chassis 10.
  • the cabin chassis 10 can have on its part front of front shock absorbers 11 capable of damping light shocks.
  • FIGS 2 to 3 are side views of the energy absorption device of the invention, the energy absorption device being successively in initial, intermediate and maximum positions.
  • the rear end of the fixed element 9B of the damping device 9 is supported on the lower part of the second plane ring 5.
  • the front end of the fixed element 9B is arranged at through the first plane ring 4 by means of an orifice practiced in this first plane ring 4.
  • the front element 9A is integral with the part lower of the first plane ring 4 and is maintained in initial position at the front end of the fixed element 9B.
  • the rear end of the cab chassis 10 is also integral at least with the lower part of the first plane ring 4 so as to accommodate the front elements 9A of the damping devices 9.
  • the damping devices 9 act as pistons and allow the energy absorption device 1 to control the energy linked to the shock.
  • the pivoting elements 6 of the device of energy absorption 1 impose the rotation of the first ring plane 4 and allows you to control the direction of deformation so as to transmit the force towards the chassis 12 of the body.
  • the device energy absorption of the invention is capable of absorbing shocks whose direction forms an angle with the direction movement of the vehicle.
  • This energy absorption device therefore makes it possible to preserve the cockpit interior for more high driver safety.
  • the energy absorption device is reversible and thus admits a shock several times.
  • the energy absorption device can thus be used in addition to the front shock absorbers 11.
  • Each damping device 9 is also likely to be composed, according to an embodiment not shown, of a honeycomb type structure arranged between the lower parts of the first 4 and second 5 planar rings.
  • Each pivot element 6 is also likely to be composed, according to an embodiment not shown, a ball joint cooperating with a sliding bearing.
