Abstract

The present invention is described as a remote lock for fifth wheel handle lever which, in accordance with its characteristics, provides the formation of a remote lock (1) in a proper and specific electromechanical structure with direct actuation in the handle lever (D) of fifth wheels (A) which precludes undue disengagement or uncoupling between the tractor (B) and the semi-trailer (C) of the wagons, so as to enable in an extremely practical, safe, and accurate fashion the complete optimization of the set of procedures intended for disengagement or uncoupling between the tractor (B) and the semi-trailer (C) through direct actuation of the handle lever (D) drive lock controlling the fifth wheel locking mechanism (A), resulting in precluded locking bar retraction (F), keeping the locking claw (G) in closed position and, therefore, still attached to the kingpin (H) of the semi-trailer (C).

Claims

1. A lever remote locking for fifth wheel maneuver, characterized by comprising a remote lock (1) incorporating an electromechanical structure, arranged vertically and symmetrically in the front part of the fifth wheel (A) and directly applied to a board network embedded in the cargo vehicle—

wagon, to the fleet tracking system basically integrated to a communication element and an onboard computer, i. e., a remote locking peripheral of such fleet tracking system.

2. The lever remote locking for fifth wheel maneuver according to claim 1, characterized by comprising a remote lock (1) incorporating an electromechanical structure containing integrated and symmetrically arranged therebetween a box (2) arranged vertically and symmetrically in the front part of the fifth wheel (A) and having a base (2A) arranged horizontally and symmetrically all along the extension of the box (2), a cover (2B) arranged horizontally, alongside and symmetrically over and all along the whole extension of the base (2A) and an assembly of attachment devices (2C) arranged perpendicularly and symmetrically between the box (2) and the base of the fifth wheel (A);

a locking pin (3) arranged horizontally, alongside and symmetrically centered under the internal face of the cover (2B) and trespassing the back faces of the box (2)—

base (2A) and cover (2B);

an electric motor (4) arranged horizontally, alongside and symmetrically under the internal face of the cover (2B);

a magnetic field reader (5) arranged vertically, perpendicularly and symmetrically under the internal face of the cover (2B); and

an electronic board (6) arranged horizontally, alongside and symmetrically under the internal face of the cover (2B).
