VEHICLE
A vehicle shown herein is a side by side powersports vehicle having a utility bed recessed in the rear body portion below an upper surface, the utility bed forming a stepped portion relative to the rear body portion and having a maximum lateral width greater than a diameter of at least one of the wheels, and a minimum width less than a diameter of at least one of the wheels, whereby a spare wheel may be stored on the stepped portion of the utility bed. As shown herein, the utility bed is defined as a removable tub, which can be removed from the rear body portion. The utility bed has defined troughs in a floor thereof angled rearwardly wherein the utility bed has drains which drain away from any heat source of the vehicle. The seats of the vehicle allow longitudinal movement and tilt capability.
FRAME ASSEMBLY FOR A UTILITY VEHICLE
A utility vehicle includes a modular frame which allows the vehicle to be customized for particular applications. The modular frame includes at least a main frame section, a front frame section, and a rear frame section. The main frame section is configured to remain consistent throughout any application of the utility vehicle and is configured to receive various iterations of the rear frame section and the front frame section.
DEF Tank Hydraulic Jack Adapter Plate
The present invention relates generally to a DEF tank hydraulic jack adapter plate. The adapter can be fixedly or removably attached to the top surface of an existing hydraulic jack such that the jack can be used to remove or replace a DEF tank from a diesel vehicle. Accordingly, the adapter secures a tank to the plate body of the adapter via a plurality of frame arms which attach to the vertical plates of the plate body. The adapter ensures the tank is retained upon the adapter and subsequently on the jack.
EXHAUST AFTERTREATMENT SENSOR TABLE MOUNTING APPARATUS AND METHOD OF INSTALLING THE SAME
A sensor table mounting system includes an insulating blanket assembly and a senor table. The insulating blanket assembly is configured to surround an external housing surface of an exhaust aftertreatment component housing. The insulating blanket assembly includes an inner blanket surface, an outer blanket surface, and a first restraint. The outer blanket surface is opposite the inner blanket surface. The first restraint includes a first restraint first end that is fixed to the outer blanket surface. The sensor table includes a platform, a first standoff, a second standoff, a first footing, and a second footing. The first footing is offset from the platform by the first standoff and configured to be coupled to the first restraint. The second footing is offset from the platform by the second standoff and configured to be coupled to the first restraint.
Vehicle
The vehicle of the present application includes a vehicle frame; a muffler supported by the vehicle frame; and a supporting unit comprising a rubber damper, located between the muffler and the vehicle frame and, connected to the vehicle frame such that the muffler is suspended from the vehicle frame and supported by the vehicle frame. The supporting unit comprises a first bracket and a second bracket on the first bracket.
Working vehicle
A working vehicle includes an engine mounted in a front portion of a travelling vehicle, and a post-processing device configured to purify exhaust gas from the engine. The engine and the post-processing device are covered with a hood. An upper surface side of the hood is inclined to extend diagonally upward from a front side to a rear side. The post-processing device is mounted on an upper side of the engine, and is positioned on a rear and inner side of the inclined upper surface side of the hood.
System and method of reciprocating piston engine, multi-fuel piston engine
The present disclosure relates to piston engine systems which are no longer restricted by their compression ratios. Rather, a mixture of fuel and pre-compressed air is used to complete the combustion. The pressure of the compressed air is independently controlled. As a result, the clearance volume can be reduced to less than 1/50 or to zero, and the piston engine systems can be used with different types of fuels, for example, gasoline, diesel, ethanol, or vegetable oils.

SIDE VEHICLE BODY STRUCTURE OF VEHICLE
An exhaust system member is provided on a vehicle-width-direction outer side relative to a vehicle body structure on the side of a floor, while avoiding widening of the vehicle and preserving small overlap collision resistance. Embodiments include an engine disposed forward of a partition wall defining a front edge of a vehicle cabin, an exhaust apparatus, a side sill extending along the vehicle front-rear direction on the side of a floor forming a floor surface of the vehicle cabin, and a hinge pillar extending vertically from the side sill. A frame member extends toward the vehicle front side from the hinge pillar and has a front end, on the rear side of a vehicle wheel, overlapping with a vehicle-width-direction length area of the wheel. The exhaust system member is in an area on the vehicle-width-direction outer side of the frame member and on the front side of the hinge pillar.
