TITLE: “A SYSTEM FOR SUPPORTING A HOSE EXTENDING BETWEEN CABIN
AND COMPONENT OF A VEHICLE”
Name and address of the Applicant:
TATA MOTORS LIMITED, an Indian company having its registered office at Bombay
House, 24 Homi Mody Street, Hutatma Chowk, Mumbai 400 001, Maharashtra, INDIA.
Nationality: INDIAN
The following specification particularly describes the invention and the manner in which it is to be performed.

TECHNICAL FIELD
Present disclosure relates to the field of automobiles. Particularly, but not exclusively, the present disclosure relates to a system for supporting a hose that extends between a cabin and a component of a vehicle. Further embodiments of the disclosure, disclose the configuration of the system for supporting the hose and to maintain a positive gradient of the hose corresponding to tilting of the cabin.
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Generally, heavy duty vehicles are provided with a cabin which is operable between an upright position and a titled position, for example, to access various components below the cabin of the vehicle for servicing or maintenance. Further, one or more hoses may extend between components of the vehicle such as engine, radiator etc. and the cabin of the vehicle. The one or more hoses may be used for conveying air bubbles and gases, with a coolant. The coolant is used for cooling components of the vehicle, such as engine and radiator. The coolant is further directed to a coolant tank from the components of the vehicle, for deaeration of the coolant. As the cabin is operated to the titled position, the one or more hoses extending between the cabin to the components are also pulled/stretched and the hoses may snap or burst leading to leakage of the coolant/hydraulic fluid, thereby affecting operation of the components in the vehicle, which is undesired.
In some cases, hoses with excessive length supported by a fixed bracket have been adopted, in order to safeguard the hoses during operation of the cabin between the upright position and the titled position. However, usage of hoses with excessive length leads to sagging. , which prevents the air bubbles, gases, and the like in the coolant to escape into the coolant tank. Accordingly, the sagging causes airlock in the one or more hoses. The airlock blocks the flow of coolant, which in turn may cause overheating of the components in the vehicle, which is again undesired.
The present disclosure is directed to overcome one or more limitations stated above, or any other limitation associated with the prior arts.
SUMMARY OF THE DISCLOSURE
One or more shortcomings of the conventional systems are overcome, and additional advantages are provided through the provision of the system for supporting a hose which

extends between a cabin and a component of a vehicle, where the cabin is tiltable as claimed in the present disclosure.

Figure 1 illustrates a perspective view of a portion of a vehicle, depicting a cabin (2), a component (3) and a system (200) supporting a hose (1) which extends from a portion, such as a rear portion, of the cabin (2). In an illustrated embodiment, the system (200) is supporting multiple hoses (1) and the same cannot be construed as a limitation, since the system (200) may also support single hose (1). As seen from the Figure 1, the vehicle may include a frame (13) or chassis. The frame (13) may accommodate at least one component (3) [hereinafter referred to as the component]. The vehicle may also include a cabin (2) and the cabin (2) may be pivotably mounted on the frame (13). The cabin (2) may be operable between a tilted position (C) [seen from Figure 7] and an upright position (D) [seen from Figure 1] with respect to the component (3) on the frame (13). In an embodiment, the vehicle may also include other components including but not limited to drive members like internal combustion engine, electric motor, and transmission units [not shown in Figures].
Further, the vehicle may include a cooling apparatus [not shown in Figures]. The cooling apparatus may include at least one coolant tank (10) [seen from Figure 8] which may be fixedly coupled to the cabin (2) of the vehicle. In an embodiment, the coolant tank (10) may be coupled on a front outer surface of the cabin (2). Further, the cooling apparatus may include the component (3) which may be including but not limiting to a radiator. Furthermore, the cooling apparatus may include the hose (1). One end of the hose (1) may be fluidly coupled to the coolant tank (10) and the opposite end of the hose (1) may be fluidly coupled to the component (3). The hose (1) may be configured to channelize the gases or air bubbles with coolant between the component (3) to the coolant tank (10). In an embodiment, the cooling apparatus may also include a pipe (1a) that is coupled to the component (3) at one end and the opposite end of the

pipe (1a) is coupled to the coolant tank (10). The pipe (1a) is configured to allow the flow of the coolant from the coolant tank to the component (3).
The vehicle may further include a system (200) for supporting the hose (1) extending between the cabin (2) and the component (3). The system (200) may be pivotally coupled to the component (3) and the system (200) may be configured to support, guide, and maintain a positive gradient of the hose (1), in response to tilting of the cabin (2) between the upright position (D) and the tilted position (C). In an embodiment, the system (200) being configured to support, guide, and maintain positive gradient of the hose (1) extended between the cabin (2) and the component (3) of cooling apparatus. Further, the system (200) may not be limited to cooling apparatus, since the system (200) may be configured to support and maintain positive gradient of any hose of sub-systems such as hydraulic braking units, oil communication units, air conditioning units, hydraulic steering units or any other units of the vehicle that includes hose which extend from a structure of the vehicle which may be pivotable or tiltable.
Referring to Figure 2, the system (200) may include a bracket (7), which may be connected to the component (3) [best seen in Figures 1 and 6]. As seen in Figure 3 the bracket (7) may be defined with a front surface (7c) and two side surfaces (7a) extending transversely from the front surface (7c). Further, the bracket (7) may be defined with a plurality of holes (7b) on the front surface (7c), which may be configured to receive fastener for coupling the bracket (7) and the component (3). In an embodiment, the bracket (7) may include at least one extension (9). In an exemplary embodiment, the at least one extension (9) may include a top extension (9t) and a bottom extension (9b) which are positioned at a pre-determined distance away from each other. The top extension (9t) and the bottom extension (9b) may be defined with holes (9a, 9c). In an embodiment, the hole (9a) on the top extension (9t) may be larger than the hole (9c) on the bottom extension (9b).
With reference to the Figure 1 and in an embodiment, the bracket (7) may be coupled to the component (3) in a way that the front surface (7c) of the bracket (7) may abut to the component (3). Further, the side surfaces (7a) of the bracket (7) may abut to the component (3). In an embodiment, the bracket (7) may be coupled to a region of the component (3) that lies proximal to the hose (1) extending from the component (3). As an example, the bracket (7) may be fixedly coupled to the component (3) by any means including but not limited to fastener extending through the plurality of holes (7b) on the bracket (7) or through welding.

Referring further to the Figure 2, the system (200) may include a biasing member (6) which may be positioned on the top extension (9t). In an embodiment, the biasing member (6) may be but not limited to a torsion spring and a helical spring. The biasing member (6) may be selected based on predetermined stiffness and may be configured to flex to selectively store and release potential energy, in response to tilting of the cabin (2) between the tilted position (C) and the upright position (D). As seen in Figure. 4 one end of the biasing member (6) may be defined with a hook (6a) and another end, which is opposite to the one end, may be defined by a connecting arm (6b).
Referring again to the Figure 2, the system (200) may include a spindle (8). The spindle (8) may be a cylindrical hollow structure having a body (8a) and a flange (8b) defined at an end of the body (8a). The spindle (8) may be supported by the at least one extension (9). In an embodiment, the body (8a) of the spindle (8) may protrude through the biasing member (6) and through the hole (9a) such that, a bottom surface of the body (8a) rests on the bottom extension (9b) and the flange (8b) may abut to second end of the biasing member (6).
Further, the system (200) may include a support member (5). As seen in Figure 5, the support member (5) may be defined with supporting sections (5s) [hereinafter referred to as the supporting sections]. The shape, configuration, or the orientation of the supporting sections (5s) may not be construed as a limitation, since the same may vary based on configuration and orientation of the hose (1). In an embodiment, as seen in Figure 1, the supporting sections (5s) may support a plurality of portions along a length of the hose (1) extending between the component (3) and the cabin (2). In an embodiment, the supporting sections may be defined by one end (5a) which is accommodated within the spindle (8) and another end (5b) opposite the one end (5a) may be defined with a loop (5l). As apparent from Figure 2, the one end (5a) of the support member (5) may be accommodated within the spindle (8), where the one end (5a) may extend along length of the spindle (8) and a portion of the one end (5a) may protrude out of the hole (9a) of the bottom extension (9b). The support member (5) moves from a first position (A) when the cabin is in the upright position (D) [seen from Figure 1] to a second position (B) when the cabin (2) is operated to the tilted position (C) [seen from the Figure 7].). In an embodiment, the portion of the one end (5a) may receive a split pin for locking the spindle (8) with the bracket (7). Thus, the spindle (8) facilitates pivotally locking the one end (5a) with bracket (7).

Referring back to Figure 2, in an embodiment, the supporting section (5s) may be configured to receive the connecting arm (6b) of the biasing member (6). The connecting arm (6b) may be fixedly coupled to a portion of the supporting section (5s). Further, the hook (6a) opposite to the connecting arm (6b) of the biasing member (6) may be fixedly coupled to the bracket (7).
In an embodiment, the support member (5) may initially lie in the first position (A) and the cabin (2) may lie in the upright position (D) [as seen in Figure 1]. When an operator intends to access the components (3) below the cabin (2) of the vehicle, such as for repair or maintenance, the operator may operate the cabin (2) from the upright position (D) to the tilted position (C) as seen in Figure 7. As the operator operates the cabin (2) from the upright position towards the tilted position (C), the coolant tank (10) [seen from figure 8] coupled to the cabin (2) also tilts along with the cabin. Consequently, the hose (1) connecting the coolant tank (10) with the component (3) is stretched or un-wound, which causes the support member (5) to pivot from the first position (A) to the second position (B). In an embodiment, the supporting sections (5s) of the support member (5) ensures that the positive gradient of the hose (1) is maintained as the cabin (2) is operated to the tilted position (C). In an embodiment, the positive gradient refers to the condition of the hose (1), where the slope of the hose (1) is oriented without any sag or slack and the hose (1) is oriented such that the hose (1) is sloping upwardly from the component (3) to a coolant tank (10). The positive gradient of the hose (1) may be defined as the condition/orientation of the hose (1) where the flow of air bubbles and gases in the hose (1) is unrestricted, while also restricting the flow of coolant to the coolant tank. In an embodiment, the positive gradient of the hose (1) during the tilted position (C) ensures the unrestricted flow of the air bubbles and gases from component (3) to the coolant tank (10). Consequently, air bubbles are not trapped in the hose (1) and are effectively channelized into the coolant tank (10). The effective communication of the air bubbles into the coolant tank (10) ensures that the coolant is de-aerated or the air bubbles from the coolant are effectively removed from the coolant.
In an embodiment, the supporting sections (5s) of the support member (5) also ensure that there is no slippage of hose (1). Further, as seen in Figure 2, the connecting arm (6b) at the top end of the biasing member (6) which is fixedly coupled to the supporting sections (5s) also rotates along with the support member (5). Since the bottom end of the biasing member (6) is fixedly coupled to the bracket (7) by means of the hook (6a), the rotation of the connecting arm (6b)

of the biasing member (6) causes the biasing member (6) to twist thereby storing potential energy.
Further, after conducting the maintenance of the required parts, the operator may operate the cabin (2) from the tilted position (C) back to the upright position (D). As the cabin (2) is operated back to the upright position (D), the coolant tank (10) is also operated back along with the cabin (2). Due to return of the cabin (2) from the tilted position (C) to the upright position (D), the support member (5) may pivot towards to the second position (B) and the same is assisted by the biasing member (6) which releases the stored potential energy due to untwisting. In other words, the connecting arm (6b) of the biasing member (6) causes) pulling of the supporting sections (5s) [thus, the support member (5)] towards the first position (A), in response to operation of the cabin towards the upright position (D).As the hose (1) is supported and pulled back to the normal orientation by the support member (5), the positive gradient of the hose (1) is maintained. Further, the positive gradient of the hose (1) also ensures that the air bubbles are not trapped in the hose (1) and are effectively channelized into the coolant tank (10). The effective communication of the air bubbles into the coolant tank (10) ensures that the coolant is de-aerated or the air bubbles from the coolant are effectively removed from the coolant unlike conventional sagging hoses, where the air bubbles are trapped in the hose (1). In an embodiment, the system (100) provides a simple configuration which ensures that the positive gradient of the hose (1) is maintained. In an embodiment, the system (200) may be retrofitted onto existing vehicles and the same may be adapted to maintain the positive gradient in the hose (1).
Equivalents
With respect to the use of substantially any plural and/or singular terms herein, those having skill in the art can translate from the plural to the singular and/or from the singular to the plural as is appropriate to the context and/or application. The various singular/plural permutations may be expressly set forth herein for sake of clarity.
It will be understood by those within the art that, in general, terms used herein, are generally intended as “open” terms (e.g., the term “including” should be interpreted as “including but not limited to,” the term “having” should be interpreted as “having at least,” the term “includes” should be interpreted as “includes but is not limited to,” etc.). It will be further understood by those within the art that if a specific number of an introduced claim recitation is intended, such

an intent will be explicitly recited in the claim, and in the absence of such recitation no such intent is present. For example, as an aid to understanding the description may contain usage of the introductory phrases “at least one” and “one or more” to introduce claim recitations. However, the use of such phrases should not be construed to imply that the introduction of a claim recitation by the indefinite articles “a” or “an” limits any particular claim containing such introduced claim recitation to inventions containing only one such recitation, even when the same claim includes the introductory phrases “one or more” or “at least one” and indefinite articles such as “a” or “an” (e.g., “a” and/or “an” should typically be interpreted to mean “at least one” or “one or more”); the same holds true for the use of definite articles used to introduce claim recitations. In addition, even if a specific number of an introduced claim recitation is explicitly recited, those skilled in the art will recognize that such recitation should typically be interpreted to mean at least the recited number (e.g., the bare recitation of “two recitations,” without other modifiers, typically means at least two recitations, or two or more recitations). Furthermore, in those instances where a convention analogous to “at least one of A, B, and C, etc.” is used, in general such a construction is intended in the sense one having skill in the art would understand the convention (e.g., “a system having at least one of A, B, and C” would include but not be limited to systems that have A alone, B alone, C alone, A and B together, A and C together, B and C together, and/or A, B, and C together, etc.). In those instances where a convention analogous to “at least one of A, B, or C, etc.” is used, in general such a construction is intended in the sense one having skill in the art would understand the convention (e.g., “a system having at least one of A, B, or C” would include but not be limited to systems that have A alone, B alone, C alone, A and B together, A and C together, B and C together, and/or A, B, and C together, etc.). It will be further understood by those within the art that virtually any disjunctive word and/or phrase presenting two or more alternative terms, whether in the description, or drawings, should be understood to contemplate the possibilities of including one of the terms, either of the terms, or both terms. For example, the phrase "A or B" will be understood to include the possibilities of "A" or "B" or "A and B."
While various aspects and embodiments have been disclosed herein, other aspects and embodiments will be apparent to those skilled in the art. The various aspects and embodiments disclosed herein are for purposes of illustration and are not intended to be limiting, with the true scope and spirit being indicated in the description.
