摘要 |
The invention relates to a device for absorbing impacts, particularly between a mobile machine (1) and an obstacle (2) or between two mobile machines, and comprises an energy absorbing structure (3), which is deployable by means of actuators (4), which are set into action by a way of control. The device is characterized in that the deployable structure (3) comprises at least one compressible beam (6) which, when the structure (3) is in deployed position, absorb energy generated by an impact, produced according to a specific direction (D) by way of the permanent axial compression thereof, the compressible beams (6) being connected to one another and/or to rigid guide elements (7) by joints (8, 9, 11) which allow for the rotational and/or translational movement of the beams (6) during deployment of the structure (3). |
