AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0005] Although these measures are known from the prior art, a collision of a vehicle with an obstacle at low overlap is particularly dangerous
Excessive deflection of the wheels can occur in this particular case, which leads to a deformation of the chassis caused by the impact, which in the worst case can press the wheel at least partially into the passenger compartment
If the structural integrity of the passenger compartment is compromised in this way, considerable inertial forces are imminently acting on the vehicle occupants and the safety of the vehicle occupants may be considerably compromised

Embodiment Construction

[0022] figure 1 Shown is a wheel 5 , supported on a steering knuckle or hub carrier 6 by means of a wheel mount, comprising a rim formed from rolled steel or cast or forged from light metal together with tires, with treads in the tire tread area. exist figure 1 Shown in the wheel 5, here is from the driver's position of the wheeled vehicle 2 ( figure 1 not shown) corresponding to the viewing direction, which corresponds to the inner side of the wheel 5 in the working state. The hub bracket 6 is equipped with an independent wheel suspension, which can connect the wheel 5 to the body of the wheeled vehicle 2 through the wheel suspension arm and the McPherson spring strut assembly 9 composed of a spring and a hydraulic damper. connect them. Another body connection for wheel 5 can be achieved by means of figure 1 A tie rod 8 , not shown, is formed, which is seated at the joint point 7 of the wheel carrier 6 .

[0023] Here, the device 1 has the shape of a bracket-shaped s...

Abstract

The invention relates to a device (1) for improving the safety of a wheeled vehicle, in particular a passenger car, which can be connected in such a manner to the undercarriage of the wheeled vehicle such that in the event of a collision of the wheeled vehicle with an obstacle, veering of a wheel (5) is counteracted. The result is improved passive vehicle safety when the device is arranged on the wheel support (6) of the wheeled vehicle.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for increasing vehicle safety of wheeled vehicles, in particular passenger vehicles, having the features of the preamble of claim 1 . Background technique [0002] Wheeled vehicles generally have a steering system for directional control. A conventional steering system consists of a steering wheel connected to tie rods via a rod-shaped or tubular so-called steering column. "Turning of the steering wheel relative to its neutral position in the form of a steering input, familiar to the skilled person" causes at least two wheels of the vehicle supported on the wheel brackets to assume a position determined by the geometry of the vehicle chassis, the position Causes a change in direction while the vehicle is in motion. In this case, the set angle between the wheel plane and the linear motion position is referred to as the steering angle in the field of vehicle construction. A torque, which is referred to as the steering...
