Lateral impact containment system includes two or more horizontal rails arranged longitudinally at different intervals, and vertical support posts arranged at regular intervals

摘要

A side impact vehicle detention system, with great detention and energy absorption capacity, that is constituted by two or more levels of longitudinally placed, continuous, horizontal railings (19,19',10), and of vertical supports (1), placed at regular intervals, characterized in that it comprises a post with a foot, with a configuration consisting of two tubular profiles, absorber (2), railings and abutments (3) with new connection to the post, and a base plate (24) to permit the fusible displacement of the post and attachment device, in order to maintain the initial position of the post when faced with an impact, all this, in order to achieve a great absorption capacity of the energy resulting from a vehicle impact and of redirecting, a high capacity of deceleration levels, a great control capacity over the vehicle during and after collision, and a reduction of subsequent possibilities of undesired vehicle reactions, a high absorbed energy dissipation control capacity, in order to provide the detention system with a certain similar deformation characteristic after each impact of a vehicle.
