Electrified military vehicle
A military vehicle including a chassis, an engine, a motor/generator, and an energy storage system. The chassis including a passenger capsule including a rear wall, and a rear module coupled to the passenger capsule. The rear module including a rear subframe assembly, a left rear wheel well, a right rear wheel well, and a bed. The engine coupled to the chassis for providing mechanical power to the military vehicle and the motor/generator coupled to the engine. The energy storage system including a lower support coupled to the bed, a lower isolator mount coupled to the lower support, a battery electrically coupled to the motor/generator and coupled to the isolation mounts such that the weight of the battery is supported via the lower isolator mount and the lower support, a bracket coupled to the battery, and an upper isolator mount coupling the bracket to the rear wall of the passenger capsule.
Electrified military vehicle
A military vehicle includes a chassis, a front axle, a rear axle, an energy storage system, a first driver, a transmission, and a second driver. The chassis includes a passenger capsule, a front module coupled to the passenger capsule, and a rear module coupled to the passenger capsule. The passenger capsule defines a tunnel extending longitudinally along a bottom thereof. The front axle is coupled to the front module. The rear axle is coupled to the rear module. The first driver is supported by the front module. The transmission is positioned within the tunnel and coupled to the front axle and/or the rear axle. The second driver is at least partially positioned within the tunnel and positioned between the first driver and the transmission. The second driver includes a motor/generator coupled to the transmission and a clutch positioned to selectively couple the first driver to the motor/generator.

Electrified military vehicle
A driveline for a military vehicle includes a driver. The driver includes a housing, a motor/generator, and a clutch. The housing includes an engine mount configured to couple to an engine and a backing plate configured to couple to a transmission. The motor/generator is disposed within the housing and configured to couple to an input of the transmission. The clutch is disposed within the housing and coupled to the motor/generator. The clutch is configured to selectively couple an output of the engine to the motor/generator. The clutch is spring-biased into engagement with the engine and pneumatically disengaged by an air supply selectively provided thereto.
DRIVE AXLE SYSTEM HAVING MULTIPLE ELECTRIC MOTORS
A drive axle system having at least one differential assembly, a first electric motor, and a second electric motor. The first electric motor and the second electric motor may be selectively connectable to the differential assembly. The first electric motor, the second electric motor, or both may provide torque to the differential assembly.
Agricultural implement, tow bar device, and towing vehicle/implement combination
Agricultural implement having a tow bar device for towing the implement with a towing vehicle includes an implement part that trails the tow bar device mounted so as to be pivotable about a first pivot axis. The first pivot axis is parallel to a horizontal transverse axis of the implement. The trailing implement part and the tow bar device are coupled by means of at least one first actuator. The tow bar device, by means of the first actuator, is pivotable about the first pivot axis in such a manner that a tilt angle between the tow bar device and the trailing implement part is adjustable.
