VEHICLE (VERSIONS) AND ITS PROTECTIVE MEANS Russian patent published in 2004 - IPC

FIELD: transport engineering; road vehicle.

SUBSTANCE: proposed vehicle is furnished with at least one protective device in form of shockproof member and it can be additionally furnished with at least second protective device designed for emergency braking. Explosive devices are placed in housing of shockproof member in energy absorbing material chamber, each provided with its chamber open from side pointed to vehicle body. Exploder is placed in chamber from side pointed to face wall of housing of shockproof member and explosive substance is arranged after exploder. Slot discharge channel is made in energy absorbing material chamber, said channel being orientated along rear wall of housing of shockproof member. Outlets of chambers of explosive devices are brought into said channel. Second protective device has housing opened from one side and it accommodates exploder, explosive substance and pack with liquid. Second protective device is made and secured to create reactive force directed opposite to direction of vehicle running. Housing of second protective device is closed by hinged cover from open side. Invention improves reliability owing to use of reactive force of gas-water jet in emergency, directed opposite to direction of vehicle running and increases efficiency of killing impact force at collision.

EFFECT: improved reliability.
