Abstract:
A passenger detection system is provided for a vehicle which includes at least one opening to allow passengers to enter and exit the vehicle and a door positioned within the at least one opening. The door has a closed position and an open position. A first infrared sensor is located proximate to the door. The first infrared sensor has a first sensing area for detecting whether a passenger is within the first sensing area. The first sensing area is within the vehicle proximate to the door. A second infrared sensor is located proximate to the door. The second infrared sensor has a second sensing area for detecting whether a passenger is within the second sensing area. The second sensing area is within the vehicle when the door is closed and is outside of the vehicle proximate to the door when the door is open.
Abstract:
The present invention is about a door 'security system for the providing of the security of the passengers which is standing especially at the middle and back door steps of the vehicles such as buses, midi buses, etc, in accordance with 2001/85 EC policy (Directive 2001/85/EC of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 November 2001). With the innovation of subject to the present invention, when the door of the vehicle is open, under the condition that there is an object that may be damaged by the movement of the door or the vehicle, by the means of the object sensor with reflector (1, 2) the existence of the concerned object is perceived, and by the means of the relay attached to that sensor, the driver of the vehicle is warned by a visual or audible signal about the existence of the object at the steps.
Abstract:
An unlock mechanism for a rotary door operator of a transit vehicle includes a pivotally disposed unlock member adapted for rotating a lock member into an unlock position and activating a valve for discharging the fluid pressure from the drive cylinder to enable manual opening of the door. A spring is provided for biasing the unlock member to a non-activated position. The unlock member may be activated either with a cable or a lever handle. A lock sensing switch provides a feedback on the lock condition to the transit vehicle control system. Additionally, a guiding bracket is provided for securing the cable in proximity of the unlock member.
Abstract:
The invention concerns a safety device for a window unit (10) with a mobile shutter (18) comprising a glass panel (16) connected over at least a portion of its periphery to a structure (12) bearing said window unit, said panel including an aperture (22) for said mobile shutter, said shutter (18) being made mobile by at least one of its peripheral edges by a linking member (28) co-operating with a section (20) integral with the panel (16) and forming a housing for at least part of the linking member. The invention is characterised in that the safety device comprises, at each end of the section (20) a safety subassembly (100) comprising at least a longitudinal safety element and linking means extending between said safety element and said structure (12) such that, when said panel (16) is broken, said section (20), and optionally, said shutter (18) are retained on said structure (12) by said safety elements and said linking means. The invention is applicable to window units with tilting or sliding of vehicles.
Abstract:
Vehicle door operating system (1) comprising a hydraulic actuating circuit (100) and an emergency circuit (200). The actuating circuit (100) comprises a double acting hydraulic cylinder as a door actuator for driving a door mechanism (19). The emergency circuit comprises a by-pass conduit (201) including an emergency valve (210). The emergency valve can be opened by manually operating a relief valve (227) which causes a depressurising of a single acting pneumatic cylinder (220) which is operatively connected to the emergency valve (210). Further, the emergency circuit (200) comprises a hydraulically actable reset cylinder (230) including a pneumatic pump chamber (233) for resetting the system to an operational state after an occurrence of an emergency situation.
