An actuated braking and distance sensing system for operational regulation of belt loader equipment and/or other applicable ground support equipment, wherein the present invention incorporates, among other embodiments, spring-responsive actuated emergency braking and distance sensing systems, emerge
An actuated braking and distance sensing system for operational regulation of belt loader equipment and/or other applicable ground support equipment, wherein the present invention incorporates, among other embodiments, spring-responsive actuated emergency braking and distance sensing systems, emergency braking and distance sensing systems implemented via linear variable displacement transducers, and/or emergency braking and distance sensing systems actuated via sonar, lasers and/or infrared sensors. Structural incorporation of the afore-referenced emergency braking and distance sensing systems within airline ground support equipment, particularly belt loader equipment, seeks to effectively reduce accidental collision of such ground support equipment with parked aircraft.

What is claimed is: 1. An actuated braking and distance sensing system for a motorized mechanism, comprising: a compression-responsive actuation mechanism disposed on a structural component of a motorized appartus adapted to actuate a warning system and an emergency braking system of the motorized
What is claimed is: 1. An actuated braking and distance sensing system for a motorized mechanism, comprising: a compression-responsive actuation mechanism disposed on a structural component of a motorized appartus adapted to actuate a warning system and an emergency braking system of the motorized apparatus; wherein said actuation member comprises an electrically conductive first member slidably and springfully engaged over a second member. 2. The system of claim 1, wherein said second member comprises a first electrical connection coupled to said warning system and a second electrical connection coupled to said emergency braking system. 3. The system of claim 2, wherein contact or collision of the structural component of the motorized apparatus with a selected surface causes compression of said actuation mechanism. 4. The system of claim 3, wherein compression of said actuation mechanism causes slidable movement of said first member over said first electrical connection of said second member, thereby completing an electrical circuit and actuating said warning system, said warning system adapted to audibly and visually alert an operator of the motorized apparatus to apply the manual brakes of same. 5. The system of claim 3, wherein compression of said actuation mechanism causes slidable movement of said first member over said second electrical connection of said second member, thereby completing an electrical circuit and actuating said emergency braking system. 6. The system of claim 3, wherein compression of said actuation mechanism causes slidable movement of said first member over said second member, and wherein the first and second electrical connections are disposed along said second member such that the acutation member may be compressed so that said first member will slide over said first electrical connection of said second member and not slide over said second electrical connection of said second member, thereby completing an electrical circuit and actuating said warning system and not completing the electrical cricuit necessary to activate said emergency braking system, said warning system adapted to audibly and visually alert an operator of the motorized apparatus to apply the manual brakes of same. 7. The system of claim 1, wherein said actuation mechanism is disposed between a padded bumper and a structural component of the motorized apparatus. 8. The system of claim 1, wherein said first member comprises a substantially hollow shape that may slide over said second member. 9. The system of claim 8, wherein said first member is a tube, substantially cylindrical in shape. 10. The system of claim 9 wherein said second member is substantially cylindrical in shape such that at least a portion of said second member fits within said first member. 11. The system of claim 8, wherein said second member comprises a first electrical connection coupled to said warning system and a second electrical connection coupled to said emergency braking system and wherein slidable movement of said first member over said second member will cause said first member to slide over said first and second electrical connections to complete electrical circuits and actuate said warning system and said emergency braking system. 12. The system of claim 11, wherein said first and second electrical connections are disposed along said second member such that slidable movement of said first member over said second member will cause said first member to slide over said first electrical connection and additional slidable movement of said first member is necessary for said first member to slide over said second electrical connection. 13. The system of claim 12, wherein compression of said actuation mechanism causes slidable movement of said first member over said first electrical connection of said second member, thereby completing an electrical circuit and actuating said warning system, said warning system adapted to audibly and visually alert an operator of the motorized apparatus to apply the manual brakes of same. 14. The system of claim 13, wherein further compression of said actuation mechanism causes slidable movement of said first member over said second electrical connection of said second member, thereby completing an electrical circuit and actuating said emergency braking system.
