Motor vehicle wheel unmasking device, has piston rotating wheel with respect to vertical pivoting axis such that part of wheel closer to passenger compartment pivots outside vehicle, where piston is activated by squib actuator

摘要

The device has a piston rotating a wheel (14) with respect to a vertical pivoting axis such that a part of the wheel closer to a passenger compartment of a vehicle pivots outside the vehicle. A squib actuator activates the piston, and a tie rod (16) controls the wheel direction, where the tie rod is connected to a steering bar (17). The piston is movable in the interior of a cylinder and defines a chamber with the cylinder.
