Abstract

Impact protection plate that, applicable to motorcycles, bicycles and similar vehicles as protection means against impacts that can occur and affect the block ( 4 ) of the battery or the motor of the vehicle that includes: a protection external body ( 2 ) at least partly rigid directly joined to the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor, and an internal core ( 1 ) of resilient material and absorbing impacts, intercalated between the lower base of the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor to be protected and the external body ( 2 ) so that, in case of impact on the external body ( 2 ), a displacement of the rigid part of the body ( 2 ) towards the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor and compressing the internal core ( 1 ) and capable to allow, when the impact ceases, that the external body ( 2 ) returns to its initial position ceasing to compress the internal core ( 1 ).

Claims (12)

1. An impact protection plate applicable to motorcycles and bicycles for impacts that can occur and affect the block ( 4 ) of a battery or a motor of the motorcycles and bicycles, wherein the impact protection plate comprises:

a protection external body ( 2 ) that is at least partly rigid and is adapted to be directly joined to the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor, wherein the protection external body ( 2 ) is to be arranged at a lower part of the block ( 4 ), and wherein the external body ( 2 ) comprises at least a resilient flexible area that in case of impact on the external body ( 2 ) is deformed allowing a displacement of the rigid part of the body ( 2 ) towards the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor and compression of an internal core ( 1 ) of resilient material made of foam that absorbs impacts, and the internal core ( 1 ) is intercalated between a lower base of the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor to be protected and the external body ( 2 ) with an outer surface of the internal core ( 1 ) being conformal to an inner surface of the external body ( 2 ), wherein the internal core ( 1 ) is formed separate from the external body ( 2 ); and

wherein in case of impact on the external body ( 2 ), a displacement of the rigid part of the body ( 2 ) towards the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor compresses the internal core ( 1 ), and when the impact ceases the external body ( 2 ) returns to its initial position ceasing to compress the internal core ( 1 ).

2. The impact protection plate according to the claim 1 , wherein the external body ( 2 ) is joined to the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor by means of screws ( 3 ) inserted through grooves provided in the external body ( 2 ).

3. The impact protection plate according to the claim 2 , wherein the screws ( 3 ) are adapted to simultaneously engage the internal core ( 1 ) and the external body ( 2 ).

4. An impact protection plate applicable to motorcycles and bicycles for impacts that can occur and affect the block ( 4 ) of a battery or a motor of the motorcycles and bicycles, wherein the impact protection plate comprises:

a protection external body ( 2 ) that is at least partly rigid and is adapted to be directly joined to the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor with screws ( 3 ) inserted through grooves provided in the protection external body ( 2 ) off-axis to a direction of impact, wherein the protection external body ( 2 ) is to be arranged at a lower part of the block ( 4 ), and wherein the external body ( 2 ) comprises at least a resilient flexible area that in case of impact on the external body ( 2 ) is deformed allowing a displacement of the rigid part of the body ( 2 ) towards the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor and compression of an internal core ( 1 ) of resilient material made of foam that absorbs impacts, and the internal core ( 1 ) is intercalated between a lower base of the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor to be protected and the external body ( 2 ); and

wherein in case of impact on the external body ( 2 ), a displacement of the rigid part of the body ( 2 ) towards the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor compresses the internal core ( 1 ), and when the impact ceases the external body ( 2 ) returns to its initial position ceasing to compress the internal core ( 1 ).

5. The impact protection plate according to the claim 4 , wherein the screws ( 3 ) are adapted to simultaneously engage the internal core ( 1 ) and the external body ( 2 ).

6. An impact protection plate applicable to motorcycles and bicycles for impacts that can occur and affect the block ( 4 ) of a battery or a motor of the motorcycles and bicycles, wherein the impact protection plate consists of:

a protection external body ( 2 ) that is at least partly rigid and is adapted to be directly joined to the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor, wherein the protection external body ( 2 ) is to be arranged at a lower part of the block ( 4 ), and wherein the external body ( 2 ) comprises at least a resilient flexible area that in case of impact on the external body ( 2 ) is deformed allowing a displacement of the rigid part of the body ( 2 ) towards the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor and compression of an internal core ( 1 ) of resilient material made of foam that absorbs impacts, and the internal core ( 1 ) is intercalated between a lower base of the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor to be protected and the external body ( 2 ); and

wherein in case of impact on the external body ( 2 ), a displacement of the rigid part of the body ( 2 ) towards the block ( 4 ) of the battery or motor compresses the internal core ( 1 ), and when the impact ceases the external body ( 2 ) returns to its initial position ceasing to compress the internal core ( 1 ).
