The system avoids situations of risk like loss of attention of the operario and unsteadiness by the speed, slopes or potholes

They create the first device that would reduce to the half the deaths by dump of agricultural machinery

The statistical are worrisome. In our country, 70% of the accidents that produce by vuelcos of agricultural machinery are mortal. Events that cause the friolera of 80 annual deaths. However, and this are good news, the number of victims could reduce “like minimum to the half” with the installation of the device antivuelco universal Inclisafe, developed by the company Develop Technological Agro-industrial (DTA). Raúl Reina, commercial director of the signature, explains us the reason. “The first factor of risk for the accident by dump is the loss of attention of the operario, and this can delete almost to the complete with the Inclisafe”.

The first electronic device that alerts in front of situations of risk and, in consequence, warns possible accidents by dump of agricultural machinery, did not arise overnight. Raúl Reina, commercial director of the company cordobesa Agro-industrial Technological Development (DTA), situated in the Technological Scientific Park of Córdoba, explains us step by step the process that would originate the current Inclisafe. “The first studies, three years backwards, developed by means of the collaboration of the School of Engineers Agronomists and Mountains of the University of Córdoba, the Group of Investigation AGR126, and the company DTA EBT, S.L. Studies that were funded by the Andalusian Agency of Environingingment and Water of the Board of Andalucia with an amount of 80.000 euros”. In the course of these works studied the causes of dump of the tractor showing the incidence of the speed and other factors in addition to the inclination. “Also they calculated the dynamic characteristics of the accidents by dump”, adds.

Main factors of risk to avoid

In Spain, 70% of the accidents by vuelcos of agricultural machinery, especially tractor trucks, are mortal. In our country, the number of operarios and/or producers that lose the life in an event of this type is of 80 annual victims, although this figure could shorten “like minimum to the half” with the implantation of the device antivuelco Inclisafe in the own tractor, as they ensure from the DTA.

The signature cordobesa has developed an electronic device, already patented, that measures the inclination and determines the stability of the machine in which it plants , according to the type of terrain and movement. The inclisafe acts of preventive form. When the team approaches to a situation of danger of dump issues a powerful audible signal, of variable frequency, according to the degree of dangerousness of the same. This redunda in the recovery of the attention by part of the operario, one of the main factors of risk in an accident of dump. “The first, in importance, is the loss of attention of the operario. This has to to the tiredness, to the excess of hours of work, etc. Once planted the device, delete this possibility, since the start of the alarm recovers the attention of the operario. Besides when having four levels of alarm, the professional will be able to control the risk of the manoeuvre that realizar. Like this, it will be able to work in the zone controlling, also, the risk of accident”, details.

Pending lateral high or provistas of terrain bacheado can generate situations of unsteadiness and, therefore, danger of dump of agricultural machinery.

The second factor of risk, in opinion of Raúl Reina, is the speed. “A same manoeuvre can be safe to 3 kms/h, dangerous to 6 and of high risk to 10 kms/h. Like general criterion, satisfied increase the speed diminishes the degree of slope by which the tractor can circulate and to the reverse”.

Potholes or obstacles constitute another factor of risk, quite significant. We see: “An obstacle of 30 centimetres of high could do dump to a tractor without need that the speed went high and to pending zero”, reasons the commercial director of DTA. Obviously, the situations of risk are the result of the combination of the already mentioned appearances.

How it works

A tractor comports , of different form, in function of the aperos and tools that add him . The Inclisafe takes into account this possibility, so that the device, after his configuration by part of the user, knows in which conditions of work operates the team in which it is mounted. “The device –relates– has an internal microprocessor and an accelerometer that receives two types of data. On the one hand, measures and weights, so much of the tractor as of the aperos. An information that facilitate him when programming it. By the another, angular speeds, by part of the accelerometer. In this way, they measure the movements that produce in the tractor, so much the speed and the inclinations like the jumps, rebounds and slides consequence of the state of the terrain”. With these data the microprocessor realizar the calculations to determine the level of stability and issue the corresponding alarm, if it was necessary.

In these moments, the company finds in negotiations with companies of Canada, Japan and United States, for like this distribute this device in his zones of influence. Even so, they recognise that they finish to initiate his commercialisation and still there are few installed units. “But the received by part of patronal, unions and agricultural organisations in general has been very good and all value very positively the Inclisafe. The implantation on a large scale, to which pretend to arrive, will go of the hand of the information to the final user and of the awareness of the gravity of this type of accident”, concludes.
