Problems solved by technology

More precisely, in known cargo vehicles, the connection points of the cab are usually designed too weakly to hold the cab to the chassis in this case
As a result, the total crash energy is absorbed by the driver's cabin and dissipated by deformation and / or rearward displacement of the driver's cabin, since the kinetic energy introduced by the collision cannot be dissipated into the rigidly constructed chassis
This often results in the complete destruction of the cab and the risk of serious injury to the driver

Embodiment Construction

[0023] FIG. 1 shows a schematic side view of an exemplary embodiment of a truck 10 according to the invention with a driver's cab 1 in a closed position for normal driving operation. A tilting device 4 is arranged between the driver's cab 1 and the chassis 3 , by means of which the driver's cab 1 can be tilted upwards about the axis of rotation 6 of the bearing structure 2 . To this end, the driver's cab 1 is articulated at the front end to a support structure 2 in the form of an upwardly protruding bearing block, which is itself fixedly fastened to a longitudinal beam 11 of the chassis 3 . The driver's cab 1 is reinforced at its lower end by side longitudinal beams 13 . In addition to the conventional connection of the driver's cab 1 via the supporting structure 2, a tilting device 4 according to the invention is provided, which consists of a front cable 5 and a rear cable 5', which can be passed through a cable drum in each case. 12, 12' actuation. The rope drums 12, 12' a...

Abstract

A truck (10) with a cab (1) and a tilting device (4) is proposed, the cab is hinged on a chassis (3) via a support structure (2) around a rotation axis (6), the Tilting means are used to raise the cab (1) to an open position tilted forward for access to the engine compartment located below the cab, wherein the cab (1) is fixable to the chassis in the closed position, said The tilting device (4) has at least one traction element (5, 5') actuatable by means of a drive (7, 7') for raising and closing the cab (1), said traction element being mounted on the Between the cabin (1) and the chassis (3), such that in the event of a frontal collision with an obstacle at the level of the cab (1), the traction element forms a grip for the cab (1).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a truck with a driver's cab which is articulated to the chassis via a bearing structure about a pivot axis and which can be adjusted into a forwardly inclined open position by means of a tilting device. The tilting of the driver's cab provides access to the area below the driver's cab, in particular to the engine, for repair and maintenance work. In the closed position of the cab, in addition to the tilting support structure, a damping system and a spring system between the cab and the chassis are also active in order to guarantee the driver's comfort. Background technique [0002] For the tilting function, hydraulic tilting systems are known which enable raising the cab by means of hydraulic cylinders, hydraulic lines and pumps. These hydraulic components must be installed and arranged in the area under the cab. These hydraulic tilting systems are therefore costly and space-intensive both in terms of construction and assembl...
