A steering knuckle (18) is provided for use in association with a vehicle steering assembly (10). The steering knuckle (10) includes a knuckle body (20) having a generally vertical face (26) and an upper yolk arm (22) having a generally vertical face (54). The generally vertical faces (26, 54) of the steering knuckle body (20) and the upper yolk arm (22) are connected to each other. The generally vertical face (54) of the upper yolk arm (22) includes a camshaft bore (62) extending therethrough and configured to receive a camshaft (64). The generally vertical face of the knuckle body may be welded to a spindle (24), with a portion of the spindle being cut away to allow for a complete circular weld between the knuckle body and the spindle.

Foot operated control linkages overlie the conventional control lever operating system on a spin turn mower to operate the mower in either forward or reverse directions. Each control linkage uses a foot pedal to control the speed of the mower while the control levers remain operable, even while the mower is moving, to change the forward or reverse direction of travel of the mower. The forward control linkage includes a first set of springs that pull the control levers against a stop while a second control spring prevents the first springs from moving the mower until the foot pedal is depressed. Thus, when the foot pedal is allowed to return to a non-depressed position, the mower will revert to a neutral detent position in which the mower is not powered in any direction.

A dump truck includes: a vehicle body frame extending in a travel direction; cooled objects in a form of an engine and an aftercooler; a first radiator and a second radiator configured to exchange heat between a cooling air and a cooling water after cooling the engine and the aftercooler, in which the first radiator is disposed to an outside of a first of the vehicle body frame in a vehicle width direction and the second radiator is disposed to an outside of a second side of the vehicle body frame in the vehicle width direction.

A front unit of a motor vehicle includes a transverse beam forming a casing with a steering rack and having, at ends of the transverse beam, protuberances arranged to be fixed to a receiving structure of the vehicle. The front unit also includes two suspension arms, each positioned at one of the ends of the transverse beam and each having at least one first and one second pivot joint. The transverse beam includes a fixing interface to receive a single pivot joint of each of the suspension arms.

The present application provides a steering mechanism, a vehicle, and an apparatus and method for producing a steering mechanism, and belongs to the technical field of vehicles. Wherein the steering mechanism comprises a first directive wheel, a second directive wheel, a first driving device, and a second driving device. The first driving device is connected to the first directive wheel; and the second driving device is connected to the second directive wheel. The first driving device and the second driving device are configured to separately drive the first directive wheel and the second directive wheel respectively, thus making the first directive wheel and the second directive wheel deflect in the same direction to achieve steering. No linkage relationship exists between the two directive wheels, whereby the two directive wheels do not need to be connected through a complex mechanical transmission mechanism, and a structure of the steering mechanism is simplified.

The present disclosure relates to an assembly for a steering system of a vehicle, the assembly comprising an axle part having a coupling recess, and a steering cylinder having a coupling projection. The coupling projection is received in the coupling recess and an interference fit is formed between the coupling projection and the coupling recess.

A method for controlling a steer-by-wire steering system for a motor vehicle having steerable front and rear wheels in emergency steering operation comprises checking the steering system for the presence of a fault state and performing the emergency steering operation to maintain original driving behaviour if a fault state is detected, including: determining a target lateral acceleration on the basis of a current steering wheel position and a current vehicle speed, determining a yaw moment and, from the yaw moment, a general wheel steering angle for the original driving behaviour, where the general wheel steering angle is equal to a difference between a front wheel steering angle and a rear wheel steering angle, determining a front wheel steering angle correction and a rear wheel steering angle correction, and determining drive torques and/or braking torques for the front wheels and the rear wheels, which are distributed appropriately by the torque vectoring system.

An electrically operable axle drive train for a motor vehicle, comprising a first vehicle axle having a first electric machine configured to drive a first vehicle wheel of the first vehicle axle, a second electric machine configured to drive a second vehicle wheel of the first vehicle axle, a steering system configured to steer the motor vehicle, and a control unit designed to actuate the steering system. In response to a malfunction of one of the electric machines in which at least one of a lower speed and a lower torque is applied to one of the vehicle wheels than to the other vehicle wheel, the control unit actuates the steering system to a steering position that counteracts a resulting torque that acts on the motor vehicle in response to the malfunction.
