Abstract

Device which makes it possible to lower towed vehicles. The invention relates to a device making it possible to decrease the total height of a vehicle whilst retaining a desired internal useful height. The invention consists in lowering the chassis (2) so that it overhangs at the back (5), so that a standard axle and a standard hitch can be fitted and so that the towed vehicle can be hitched at a standard height (3) without going through the use of articulated or moving parts.

OBTAINED
The present invention relates in particular to the chassis of trailers, caravans and dwellings because it is in this case that its application seems to have the most interest but not exclusively.

On sait qu'il est d'usage, dans les techniques classiques de construction de véhicules tractés, d'employer un ou des essieux standards et d'y construire dessus un chassis droit avec flèche d'attelage en bout, chassis sur lequel repose le plancher de type sandwich ou plancher ordinaire. La hauteur du véhicule fini (HT) est donc la hauteur de garde au sol (Gs) de l'essieu ou des essieux au niveaux des patins de fixations, plus épaisseur du chassis et du plancher (C) plus hauteur utile et toit (ht). We know that it is customary, in conventional techniques for the construction of towed vehicles, to use one or more standard axles and to build thereon a straight chassis with a drawbar at the end, the chassis on which the sandwich type floor or ordinary floor. The height of the finished vehicle (HT) is therefore the height of the ground clearance (Gs) of the axle or axles at the level of the fixing pads, plus thickness of the chassis and floor (C) plus useful height and roof (ht ).

L'invention a donc pour but de surbaisser le plancher en porte-à-faux arrière, ce qui permet pour une même hauteur intérieure utile d'avoir un véhicule beaucoup plus bas, plus compact, plus aérodynamique et qui de ce fait peut rentrer dans la plupart des garages. Le seuil d'entrée du véhicule (S) est également surbaissé à hauteur du plancher pour une circulation intérieure et extérieure plus aisée. The invention therefore aims to lower the floor in rear overhang, which allows for the same useful interior height to have a vehicle much lower, more compact, more aerodynamic and which therefore can fit into most garages. The vehicle entry threshold (S) is also lowered to floor level for easier interior and exterior circulation.

Le montage selon l'invention est caractérisé par, de l'avant à l'arrière une flèche en V traditionnelle montée monté sur un demi chassis Q2 allant jusqu'à l'essieu et aux passages de roues c'est dans les passages de roues que la modification du chassis se fait et c'est dans ce même passage de roues que le chassis est surbaissé et renforcé
Ce type de chassis permet de réduire la garde au sol au minimum, ce qui donne la possibilité de faire un véhicule beaucoup plus bas en hauteur extérieure totale tout en concervant une hauteur intérieure souhaitée. Ces véhicules se trouvent donc dans la possibilité de pouvoir passer partout, notament garages, parkings sous-terrains, etc... sans avoir recourt à une ou des parties de carrosserie articulées qui présentent des problèmes d'étanchéité, de rigidité ou de coût de production.
The assembly according to the invention is characterized by, from front to rear a traditional V-shaped arrow mounted mounted on a half chassis Q2 going to the axle and to the wheel arches it is in the wheel arches that the chassis modification is done and it is in this same wheel arch that the chassis is lowered and reinforced
This type of chassis makes it possible to reduce the ground clearance to a minimum, which gives the possibility of making a vehicle much lower in total exterior height while keeping a desired interior height. These vehicles are therefore in the possibility of being able to pass everywhere, in particular garages, underground car parks, etc ... without having recourse to one or more articulated body parts which present problems of tightness, rigidity or cost of production.

REVENDICATION CLAIM Châssis de remorques, caravanes et habitations autres caractérisé par son surbaissement au moyen du montage d'une flèche en V (1) ou d'un timon droit sur un demi-châssis (2) allant jusqu'à 4-essieu (3-) et aux passages de roues (4) dans lesquels le- demi- chassis en porte-à-faux arrière est renforcé et surbaissé (5), ainsi que le seuil de la porte, ce dispositif permettant la station debout dans un véhicule ayant une hauteur totale moins importante que traditionnellement.  Chassis of trailers, caravans and other dwellings characterized by its lowering by means of the mounting of a V-boom (1) or a straight drawbar on a half-chassis (2) up to 4-axle (3-) and at the wheel arches (4) in which the rear overhang half-frame is reinforced and lowered (5), as well as the door sill, this device allowing standing in a vehicle having a height total less important than traditionally.
