Safety cab for a mobile home or camper with deformation elements
A safety cabin for a mobile home or motor home includes walls of the safety cabin including at least one layer of a fibre-reinforced plastic woven fabric and/or non-woven fabric. A layer includes plies arranged consecutively along a transverse direction with different fibre orientations. A layer is provided in the lateral external walls in each of a front region and rear region of the cabin. An intermediate wall at a transition from the front region of the cabin to the rear region of the cabin is arranged transversely to a longitudinal direction of the cabin, with the intermediate wall preferably comprising a layer including three to nine plies. Similarly, the invention relates to a manufacturing method for the safety cabin according to the invention.
Vehicle impact energy management structures and techniques
An impact energy management system for a vehicle includes an impact energy absorbing structure to absorb energy from an impact with an external object, and an energy management structure to manage energy from an impact with an internal displaceable object (e.g., a motor or steering rack) with one or more protected objects (e.g., a passenger compartment or battery). The energy management structure may include one or more swingarms or other members configured to protect the protected object from impact by directing the displaceable object down and/or away from the protected object during a collision.
Vehicle Safety Seat
A vehicle safety seat for protecting a vehicle occupant from injury due to impact and airborne debris, in the event of a collision. The vehicle safety seat includes a seat bottom, a backrest, and a headrest, wherein the seat is secured to a frame. The frame is pivotally secured to the floor and frame of a vehicle, wherein the seat can recline immediately in advance of a collision for absorbing impact forces. The safety seat further includes telescoping shields that are retractably secured to the lateral sides of the seat bottom, backrest, and headrest. The shields are projected from the safety seat, creating a protective cocoon around the seat occupant prior to a collision. The seat is operably connected to one or more sensors that can detect an imminent collision between the vehicle and another object, wherein a pneumatic system deploys the shields and an electro-mechanical system reclines the seat.
SAFETY CAB FOR A MOBILE HOME OR CAMPER WITH DEFORMATION ELEMENTS
The invention relates to a safety cabin for a mobile home or motor home comprising a part of the safety cabin arrangeable behind the driver compartment, with walls of the safety cabin comprising at least one layer of a fibre-reinforced plastic woven fabric and/or non-woven fabric. One layer comprises plies following one another along a transverse direction here. Plies directly following one another comprise different fibre orientations here. The layer in the lateral external walls in a front region of the cabin, in relation to an intended main travel direction, preferably comprises at least three to nine plies. In a rear region of the cabin, in relation to an intended main travel direction, the layer in the lateral external walls preferably comprises one to five plies. Additionally, an intermediate wall is present at a transition from the front region of the cabin to the rear region of the cabin arranged transversely to a longitudinal direction of the cabin, with the intermediate wall comprising a layer including three to nine plies. Similarly, the invention relates to a manufacturing method for the safety cabin according to the invention.
Portable, Folding Passenger Vehicle Partition
A folding a partition consist of an acrylic partition having folding panels, and a set of hinges to secure and give the capability of folding the panels of the acrylic partition. There are two vertical legs, for elevation, that are removably secured to the folding panels of the acrylic partition. The acrylic partition comes with a set of utility straps, and the utility straps are utilized to secure the acrylic partition inside the vehicle onto the center post of that vehicle, for safe horizontal positioning of the acrylic partition as it stands positioned behind the front seats.
Floor-mounted airbag between passenger and cargo compartments
A vehicle includes a vehicle body defining an interior cabin. The interior cabin includes a passenger compartment and a cargo compartment. The vehicle body includes a floor below the interior cabin. An airbag is supported on the floor and is inflatable upwardly from the floor between the passenger compartment and the cargo compartment. A retractor is fixed to the vehicle body above the airbag. A tether extends from the retractor to the airbag.
Deployable cargo panel
An assembly for a vehicle includes a vehicle roof and a panel rotatably connected to the vehicle roof. The panel is rotatable away from the vehicle roof from a stowed position to a deployed position. The assembly includes an airbag supported on the panel. The airbag is inflatable from the panel in a vehicle-forward direction when the panel is in the deployed position.
Panel assembly deployable from seatback
A vehicle includes a vehicle body defining an interior cabin having an occupant cabin and a cargo cabin. A seatback is in the occupant cabin. The seatback has a seatback frame elongated along an upright axis. A panel is elongated along the upright axis of the seatback frame. The panel is slidably engaged with the seatback frame. The panel is slidable relative to the seatback frame along the upright axis from a stowed position to a deployed position. The panel is stowed relative to the seatback frame in the stowed position and elongated away from the seatback frame along the upright axis between the occupant cabin and the cargo cabin in the deployed position. A pyrotechnic actuator is fixed to the seatback frame and operatively engaged with the panel to deploy the panel from the stowed position to the deployed position.
Electric vehicle power unit mounting plate
A device that supports a motor vehicle component includes a plate that is equipped with a securing device for securing a protective casing of the component and an attachment device for attaching to a structural element of the chassis of the motor vehicle. The attachment device is designed to break in the event of a collision involving the motor vehicle. The support device also includes a deflector that forms a ramp tilted upwards, one end of which extends at the height of the plate and an opposing end of which is tilted relative to the plate. This support device helps protect the occupant in case of a frontal impact collision by preventing rigid members from stacking up in a critical manner in the engine compartment.
Slideably releasable center console
A vehicle includes a floor and a center console supported by the floor. The center console includes a bottom adjacent to the floor and openings. At least some of the openings have an enlarged portion spaced from the bottom and a slot portion extending from the enlarged portion to the bottom. Fasteners are disposed in the enlarged portion and fixed relative to the floor.
