Embodiment Construction

[0045] figure 1 A vehicle 1 is shown, more specifically an industrial vehicle. Although the invention will be described in relation to a truck, the invention is not limited to this particular vehicle, but may also be used in other vehicles, such as buses.

[0046] Vehicle 1 includes a body frame 2 supported by front wheels 3 and rear wheels 4 , and a cab 5 . The vehicle 1 may also include a cargo box (not shown). Z is defined as the vertical direction, X is defined as the longitudinal direction of the vehicle 1 , and Y is defined as the lateral direction of the vehicle 1 .

[0047]The cab 5 has a front wall 6 and two side walls 7 . The cab 5 defines a driver's compartment 8 with a floor 9 and includes an opening 10 for access to the driver's compartment 8, as Figure 7 shown in . Since the floor 9 is located at a relatively high level above the ground, the cab 5 includes steps 11 arranged on the side walls 7 for allowing the driver to climb up or down from the driver's co...

Abstract

The invention relates to an industrial vehicle cab (5) defining a driver compartment and having a front wall and two side walls, said walls including rigid body components (20, 20a). The cab (5) comprises a side door (15) for entering the driver compartment, a step (11) arranged on a side wall for allowing the driver to climb up to / get down from the driver compartment, and a lighting system (30)for illuminating the step (11). The lighting system (30) is fastened on at least one body component (20). The lighting system (30) is located forward of the step (11) and along at least a portion ofthe step (11) in the vertical direction, and it is arranged to provide a light beam (31 ) towards at least part (41) of the step (11) and towards an area (42) of the ground at the bottom of the step (11).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an industrial vehicle cab comprising a step lighting system, a body part of an industrial vehicle cab comprising a step lighting system, and an industrial vehicle comprising such a cab or such a body part. [0002] The invention can be applied to a variety of industrial vehicles such as trucks, buses and construction equipment. Background technique [0003] The cab of an industrial vehicle defines a driver's compartment, the floor of which is usually located at a relatively high position relative to the ground. Therefore, such cabs usually comprise steps arranged on the side walls of the cab for allowing the driver to climb up / down from the driver's compartment. [0004] Using steps requires the driver to be careful, especially when it is dark, to avoid falls and injuries. To reduce the risk, the cab can be equipped with a lighting system to illuminate the steps. However, conventional lighting systems are not entirely satisf...
