  • Patent number: 8696025
    Abstract: A single movement stabilization system attached to the head of a vehicle and housing at least two stabilizer arms (2) arranged in a symmetric manner with respect to the symmetry plane of the head of a vehicle, perpendicular to the ground surface, and wherein each stabilizer arm (2) comprises an extractable element (3) inside a sliding guide element (15), at whose ends an arm (4) with a support foot (5) is bound with hinge (14), as well as at least one hydraulic cylinder (8) to operate the movement of the arm (4), at least one tie rod element (11) to control the movement of the extractable element (3); and wherein the stabilizer arms (2) are bound with each other along the symmetry plane of the vehicle head; and wherein the hydraulic cylinder (8) and rod element (11) are obliquely positioned with respect to the ground surface in order to utilize the maximum leverage; and wherein the hydraulic cylinders (8) and rod elements (11) are controlled by mechanical lock pins (12) and locking pins (6).

  • Publication number: 20110127757
    Abstract: Single movement stabilization system comprising the head of a vehicle for housing at least two stabilizer arms (2) arranged in a symmetric manner with respect to the symmetry plane of the head of a vehicle, perpendicular to the ground surface, and characterised in that: said stabilizer arm (2) comprises an extractable element (3) inside a sliding guide element (15), at whose ends an arm (4) with a support foot (5) is bound with hinge (14), as well as at least one actuator means of the movement of the arm (4), such as a hydraulic cylinder (8), at least one actuator element of the movement of the extractable element (3) such as a tie rod element (11); said stabilizer arms (2) are bound with each other along the symmetry plane of the vehicle head; said arm movement actuator means (8,11) are obliquely positioned with respect to the ground surface in order to utilise the maximum useful stroke; said movement actuators (8,11) are controlled by stopping means.
