| 20100207425 | CONVERTED HIGH MOBILITY VEHICLE AND CONVERSION METHOD THEREFOR - Method is provided for after market conversion of a 4×4 vehicle produced by a manufacturer into a high mobility vehicle having increased maneuverability and on-road and/or off-road capability, relative to the 4×4 vehicle. The 4×4 vehicle has a chassis with a frame, front axle and rear axle, said chassis having a standard wheelbase. The method includes dismounting at least one of the front axle or rear axle from the frame; shortening said frame; and mounting the dismounted axle to the shortened frame so as to obtain a shortened chassis having a shortened wheelbase which is shorter than any standard wheelbase of the line of models produced by the manufacturer. | 08-19-2010 |
| 20110148147 | Vehicle with structural vent channels for blast energy and debris dissipation - A vehicle includes one or more structural vent channels for blast energy and gas and debris dissipation. The structural enclosure of a vehicle includes a hull floor and encloses or defines a compartment for crew, cargo, or crew and cargo. The channel provides a passage through, around, or through and around the vehicle, by which blast energy and debris can be dissipated from explosions beneath the vehicle. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20120139293 | UNIVERSAL LATCH MECHANISM - A latch mechanism for removably coupling at least one transparent armor assembly being in a vehicle window sill, the at least one transparent armor assembly including a frame that supports at least one transparent armor pane, the latch mechanism includes a latch mechanism assembly, the latch mechanism assembly being selectively operable by a vehicle occupant for effecting release of the at least one transparent armor assembly, such release permitting shifting of the at least one transparent armor assembly from the vehicle window frame to define an egress portal and the latch mechanism having an engaging member for selectively engaging the vehicle window frame, latch mechanism assembly being shiftable relative to the transparent armor assembly frame for accommodating a plurality of varying transparent armor assembly to vehicle window frame relationships. A method for removably coupling at least one transparent armor assembly to a vehicle window sill is further included. | 06-07-2012 |
| 20120181817 | Lethal Threat Protection System For A Vehicle And Method - A field configurable vehicle armoring system and associated method allow a user to retrofit and reconfigure a combination of armor components in response to a perceived threat change and using original equipment manufacture fasteners and holes. The system includes pillar armor attachable after an original equipment manufacture door and hinge are removed. Fasteners extend through the hinge of the armored door, the pillar armor and an original equipment manufacture pillar using holes other than the original equipment manufacture holes. Rocker panel and underbody armor is further provided, along with a ballistic resistant windscreen and rear wall armor. Where desired, system armor includes a composite plate comprising a strike face that is constructed from softer metallic material than an inner metallic sheet. | 07-19-2012 |
| 20120187718 | DOOR PROTECTION DEVICE FOR A VEHICLE - A vehicle door safety device for a vehicle, especially for an armored vehicle, includes at least one door casing which runs peripherally essentially in the side edges of the vehicle door and which is located on the inside of a vehicle door leaf, and of at least one body casing which is arranged running peripherally on the door frame of the vehicle body. The casings of the inside of the door leaf and of the door frame mutually supplement one another in a complementary manner, each being made with at least one component such that they overlap one another in the closed position of the vehicle door, as a result of which a gap between the casings is covered. | 07-26-2012 |
| 20120193940 | Vehicle with structural vent channels for blast energy and debris dissipation - A vehicle includes one or more structural vent channels for blast energy and gas and debris dissipation. The structural enclosure of a vehicle includes a hull floor and encloses or defines a compartment for crew, cargo, or crew and cargo. The channel provides a passage through, around, or through and around the vehicle, by which blast energy and debris can be dissipated from explosions beneath the vehicle. Objects can be mounted within, above, or below the channel with breakaway mounting fixtures. The channel can serve as a storage compartment for objects that would be sacrificed during a blast. | 08-02-2012 |
| 20140232135 | APPARATUS FOR PROTECTING COMPONENTS OF AN EXCAVATOR - The present invention relates to a structurally improved apparatus for protecting components of an excavator, which protects components inside an upper swing body comprising a hydraulic valve and a turning joint from damage from residue (R) such as rock fragments or stone fragments falling to the bottom of a boom base during scratch processing in a quarry mine. The apparatus comprises: a boom base supporting the bottom of a boom; a left and right cover support frame formed on a left and right center frame extending from the boom base; and a protective cover body detachably installed on the top of the left and right cover support frame. The protective cover body comprises: an inserting portion coupled to the back of the boom; a dipping plate for absorbing shock when residue falls; and a bottom plate formed on the bottom of the damping plate and contacting and supported on the upper side of the left and right cover support frame. | 08-21-2014 |
| 20160025461 | HARDENED ALTERNATIVE TRAILER SYSTEM AND METHODS OF PRODUCING SAME - A Hardened Alternative Trailer System (HATS) is described, including methods of producing same. HATS has superior blast, ballistic and forced entry protection properties, relative to existing structures, due to particular features of frame design and construction methods. Furthermore, HATS is a low-cost reinforced ISO container suitable for field and/or remote fabrication and meets blast, ballistic/projectile and/or forced entry threats such as the U.S. Department of State Certification Standard SD-STD-01.01, Revision G. | 01-28-2016 |
| 20160047631 | MOVING SACRIFICIAL VEHICLE HULL - The present invention is directed to new and improved armor protection that can replace the existing crew cabin with a field replaceable armored crew compartment to be attached to the existing body of an HMMWV military vehicle to protect the military personnel within from explosive blasts, roll-over or collisions. In accordance with the concepts of the present invention, in order to provide additional protection to personnel in the HMMWV crew compartment, a sacrificial V-shaped hull is designed to be attached onto the underside of the crew compartment over the HMMWV frame rails. In the event of an explosion underneath the HMMWV, the V-shaped hull will shield the personnel inside the cabin and absorb the force of the explosion. | 02-18-2016 |
| 20160159401 | UNDERBODY ENERGY ABSORPTION DEVICE - A blast shield for underbody protection of vehicles is presented that combines energy absorption and deflection in order to provide occupant protection and increased survivability in the event of an underbody explosive blast, especially those caused by improvised explosive devices. Absorption of blast energy is accomplished by a dampening system comprising a plurality of spaced hydraulic dampers position on a hull that deflects forces outward from underneath the vehicle. | 06-09-2016 |
