CA 2486600

A system is provided for the throttle control of a multi-combination vehicle operable by a driver where said vehicle includes at least two engines each engine operable by an independent throttle. One of the throttles is controlled by a standard throttle pedal, the other by a hand-controlled throttle. If the driver becomes ineffective such as loosing consciousness, the second throttle is caused to be disregarded by the second engine that is forced to an idle position. Further, the second throttle can only become operable when the second throttle has been manually reset to a predetermined position, generally the idle position. A further improvement to the invention lies in the fact that under emergency braking the transmission system coupled with the second engine, generally automatic, is forced to convert mode to protect the transmission from damage.

Système assurant la commande des gaz dans un véhicule composite commandé par un conducteur, ledit véhicule comprenant au moins deux moteurs dont chacun est actionné par un papillon indépendant. L'un des papillons est commandé par une pédale d'accélération normalisée tandis que l'autre est commandé par un accélérateur à commande manuelle. Au cas où le conducteur ne serait plus en état de conduire, par exemple en cas de perte de conscience, le deuxième moteur ne tient plus compte du second accélérateur, et est contraint à se mettre au ralenti. En outre, le second accélérateur ne peut redevenir actif que lorsqu'il est réinitialisé manuellement vers une position déterminée. Il s'agit généralement de la position de ralenti. Un perfectionnement supplémentaire de l'invention réside dans le fait que, lors d'un freinage d'urgence, le système de transmission accouplé au second moteur, qui est le plus souvent automatique, est contraint à se mettre en mode transformation afin de protéger la transmission de toute dégradation.
