Definitions
- This invention relates to a system for the hand operation of the brake pedal and/or clutch pedal with a lever.
- This invention has been classified in accordance with the International Patent Classification (7th Edition) into section B 60 T 7/06 - as a system for the operation of brakes, namely devices for the actuation of brakes by a driver, namely by hand and it is also classified into section B 60 K 20/06 - arrangement or mounting of change-speed gearing control devices in vehicles mounted on a steering column or the like.
- the technical solution according to this invention enables the manual activation of the lever on a brake or clutch pedal without the use of various electronic circuits, and also the activation of the brake or clutch which does not require the use of significant forces, nor does it require great power with the hands.
- the lever on a brake or clutch pedal without the use of various electronic circuits, and also the activation of the brake or clutch which does not require the use of significant forces, nor does it require great power with the hands.
- Document EPO 120105 relates to an operation of a vehicle for handicaped persons which consists of a control lever used for the hydraulic pump control in such a way that the movement of the lever onward causes a vehicle to accelerate and movement of the lever backward causes the vehicle to slow down.
- the hydraulic pump does not control the brake pedal of the vehicle directly, but it controls the acceleration by means of hydraulic motors which are used for the acceleration or respectively for the stopping of vehicle.
- Document JP2002120701 relates to a vehicle for handicaped persons and to a braking system which facilitates the braking by using of the control lever.
- Document JP2002120701 differs from the invention disclosed in this application by the fact that the whole system is based on the mechanical transmission of the braking force on a brake pedal.
- Document EP 069090 describes a device which transfers the controlling of the throttle pedal to enable the hand operation of the throttle.
- this device has been constructed on the basis of the mechanical principles, without the use of the hydraulic cylinders and servo- devices, and such construction requires a significant force from a user to activate it.
- Fig. 1 shows a schematic construction of a system for the hand operation of the brake and/or clutch pedal with a lever by using two hydraulic cylinders
- Fig. 2 shows a schematic construction of one example of a system for the hand operation of the brake and/or clutch pedal with a lever
- a system for the hand operation of a brake and/or clutch pedal consists of at least two hydraulic cylinders (3) and (4) and one servo-device (1).
- at least one hydraulic cylinder (3) is positioned before the servo- device (1) and equally at least one hydraulic cylinder (4) is placed after the servo-device (1).
- the number and dimensions of the hydraulic cylinders and servo-devices depends on the purpose of the system for the hand control according to the present invention, on the size and mass of the vehicle, on the distance from the cylinders to the servo-device and also they depend on the various other factors that are not part of this invention.
- the hydraulic cylinder (3) is connected to a storage of servo fluid (8) and to a hand actuator of the brake or clutch (10) which is used for the hand control of the brake or clutch lever/pedal (11).
- a hand actuator of the brake or clutch 10 which is used for the hand control of the brake or clutch lever/pedal (11).
- From each side of the servo-device (1) there could be at least one hydraulic cylinder (5) and/or (6), depending on the specific construction of the invention. There are some constructions according to this invention in which on one side of the servo- device there are different numbers of hydraulic cylinders than on the other side of the servo- device.
- the second hydraulic cylinder (4) is connected directly on the brake or clutch lever/pedal.
- connections between the cylinders (3) and (5), and respectively the cylinders (4) and (6) are made with rigid or flexible high-pressure pipes.
- the connections between the cylinders (3) and (4) and the servo-device (1) are made with rigid or flexible high-pressure pipes.
- the low pressure needed for the operation of the servo-device (1) is gained through a connection of the servo-device (1) with an internal combustion engine (9) through a pipe (7).
- the system for a hand operation of a brake or clutch lever/pedal can be constructed as it is shown on figure 2, with four hydraulic cylinders (3), (5) and (4), (6), with two cylinders (3) and (5) before the servo-device (1) and with two cylinders (4) and (6) after the servo-device (1).
- One hydraulic cylinder (3) is located directly after the hand actuator of the brake or clutch (10), while the other hydraulic cylinder (5) is positioned just before the servo-device (1).
- the second pair of hydraulic cylinders (4) and (6) is placed after the servo-device (1), however cylinder (6) is located immediately after the servo-device (1), while cylinder (4) is positioned close to the brake or clutch pedal (11) where it influences the pedal proportionally depending on the effect of the force applied on the hand actuator of th& brake or clutch (10).
- the braking process or process of the clutch activation is carried out by the activation of a hand actuator of the brake or clutch (10) which pressures a working medium in the connecting pipes and the pressure of the medium is increased in the hydraulic cylinder (3), and it is then transferred into the hydraulic cylinder (5) which is positioned immediately before the servo- device (1).
- the pressure of a working medium is also increased by passing through the servo- device (1) and through appropriately a dimensioned hydraulic cylinder (6) positioned after the servo-device (1). Following the hydraulic cylinder (6) the pressure of fluid acts on the piston positioned in the hydraulic cylinder (4) which furthermore directly acts on the brake or clutch pedal (11).
- Such construction allows that the force applied on the hand actuator of the brake or clutch (10) is multiplied and enlarged in an appropriate manner that is sufficient for the proportional movement of the brake or clutch pedal, and finally causing braking, or respectively activation/deactivation of the clutch of the vehicle.
- All mentioned parts according to this invention may be placed inside the vehicle cabin, however due to the saving of space in the cabin, in the described construction, the servo-device (1) and hydraulic cylinders (4) and (6) are located in the trunk of the vehicle.
- one of the constructions implies the use of both systems - system for the hand operation of the brake pedal and system for the hand operation of the clutch pedal.
- the control of the brake and clutch pedals may be carried out with one or two independent hand actuators.
- the brake would be activated by pushing the actuator into one direction, while the clutch would be activated with the push into the other direction.
