Anti-terror car-attack defending apparatus

Abstract

A car-attack defending apparatus includes a pressure-sensitive reaction module, an emergent airbag-inflation module, a crash barrier module, and an integral exterior unit module, wherein the pressure-sensitive reaction module has a pressure-sensitive setting and triggering mechanism, the emergent inflation airbag module has an emergent airbag expansion mechanism, and the crash barrier module has a crash-resistant steel plate. The car-attack defending apparatus can be disposed at entrances of specific buildings or restricted areas, so that at the moment a suspected car ignores warning and attempts to access the site, the emergent airbag expansion mechanism will be triggered, by the weight of the car, so as to expand the airbag simultaneously, and to stretch the crash-resistant steel plate to form a barrier. As such, the suspected car can be prevented from moving further, allowing checkpoint personnel a safe standoff distance from car bombs.

Description

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0001]1. Field of the Invention[0002]The present invention relates to a car-attack defending apparatus, more particularly, to an anti-terror car-attack defending apparatus incorporating modular pressure-sensitivity, emergent airbag-inflation, and crash-barrier structures, such that a car-barrier steel plate can be raised upon expansion of an airbag triggered by a suspected car so as to prevent the same from moving further.[0003]2. Description of Related Art[0004]Conventionally, vehicle entrance control or security safeguard may rely on, among others, fences to keep suspected cars from invasion. However, so long as the cars are powerful enough or driven at high speed, the fences may not be able to stop the cars. On the other hand, Jersey barriers, having a prefabricated concrete structure, though perfectly obstructive, are bulky and inflexible for movement, resulting in inconvenience for traffic when not in restricted occasions.[0005]The problems, as mentio...

AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

[0006]An object of the present invention is to provide an anti-terror car-attack defending apparatus, equipped with modules acting, among others, for pressure-sensitivity, emergent airbag inflation, and crash barrier, so that a hostile car can be stopped from invasion when triggering the emergent air-bag inflation module and raising the crash barrier module.

Problems solved by technology

However, so long as the cars are powerful enough or driven at high speed, the fences may not be able to stop the cars.

On the other hand, Jersey barriers, having a prefabricated concrete structure, though perfectly obstructive, are bulky and inflexible for movement, resulting in inconvenience for traffic when not in restricted occasions.
