Under ride protection for the rearward end of a tipper vehicle with a superstructure tippable about a rearward lateral axis

摘要

By means of the invention an underride protection (2) for utility vehicles is to be provided which in addition to a operation for road traffic has a raised position suitable for off-the-road position and can be moved from this position counter to resilient force in the direction of the road traffic position. The figure shows a side view of the rear end part of the frame (1) of a utility vehicle on which an underride protection (2) which is only partially shown is fastened. The underride protection (2) has longitudinal struts (3) which are assigned to both longitudinal sides of the vehicle and are connected at their rear end by a protective bar 4. The underride protection (2) is hinged about a transverse axis (5) to the underside of the frame (1) via the longitudinal struts (3). IMAGE
