Embodiment Construction

[0063] In the drawings, the same reference numerals designate the same or similar elements.

[0064] figure 1 , figure 2 , Figure 3a , Figure 3b , Figure 4a with Figure 4b A vehicle 1 according to a first embodiment of the invention is shown. In the first embodiment represented, although not limited thereto, the vehicle 1 is a tractor of a truck comprising a driver's cabin 3 and a chassis 5 which adjoins the driver's cabin 3 in a longitudinal direction L which corresponds to the direction in which the vehicle 1 moves forward or backward on the ground S. The cockpit 3 and chassis 5 are mounted on wheels 6 driven by a motor system. In the figure, a trailer 7 is mounted on the chassis 5 .

[0065] The cockpit 3 defines a driver's cabin 4 , oriented in the longitudinal direction L, having a driver's seat 8 in which a driver 9 can sit.

[0066] Cockpit 3 includes:

[0067] - a floor and a roof 11 delimiting the cab 4 in a vertical direction V perpendicular to the gro...

Abstract

A vehicle (1) comprising: a driver compartment (4) with driving seat (8), a door pivotally mounted on a lateral frame along a door swept, the door comprising a lateral window, a viewing system (25) comprising a wing (28) comprising a first end (28a) mounted on the lateral frame (19) and a second end (28b), and at least one camera (26) mounted on the wing (28) so as to acquire a lateral rear view of the vehicle (1), a side clearance device (35) comprising a deflector (37) presenting an extended configuration in which said deflector (37) is directly visible from the driving seat (8) through the lateral window so as to enable a driver (9) to locate the second end (28b) of the wing (28), the deflector (37) being movable between the extended configuration and a retracted configuration in which the deflector (37) is arranged outside of the door swept.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a side clearance device, an assembly and a vehicle comprising such a side clearance device and a method for maneuvering such a vehicle. Background technique [0002] Viewing systems are used in vehicles to provide one or more views of the vehicle's surroundings to a driver seated in the vehicle's cab. These views include at least one or more lateral rear views of the vehicle surroundings arranged at the rear and sides of the driver's seat. [0003] Mirrors have long been used in observation systems for imaging the surroundings of vehicles. In particular, viewing systems have implemented one or more side mirrors, each mounted on the side of the vehicle outside the cab to provide a side rear view. [0004] In addition to their primary function of providing a side-to-rear view when maneuvering a vehicle, especially a large vehicle such as a truck, bus, or other vehicle, the side mirrors of the viewing system can also serve as a ...
