A cargo carrying vehicle (10) includes a load support deck (44) comprised of a plurality of laterally adjacent deck pieces (46). Each deck piece includes in transverse cross section a plurality of elongated cavities (56) in which respective support members (100) may be selectively longitudinally positioned. A frame (128) includes a support and mounting arrangement for one or more suspension subframes (142) that each include a wheel supporting axle (144). Brace plates (168, 170, 172) operatively connect with frame rails (130, 132) and lateral support ribs (140) to reinforce the frame structure and attach the suspension subframe.

A spreader sprayer system includes a frame member defining a frame body that has a first side, a second side, a front portion, and a rear portion, a first walking member pivotably coupled to the first side of the frame body, a second walking member pivotably coupled to the second side, a first and second plurality of drive wheels, and at least one spray container. The first plurality of drive wheels are disposed on the first side of the frame body and are operatively coupled to the first walking member. The second plurality of drive wheels are disposed on the second side of the frame body and are operatively coupled to the second walking member. Each spray container is coupled to at least one of the first walking member or the second walking member.

Device and method for providing rotational power using power transmission are disclosed. The device enables multi-dimensional and angle-agnostic displacement of the rotational power output with respect to the input location and transference of high-torque and high-speed rotational movement, while preserving maximal efficiency and quick response. The device is a transmission gear that comprises at least two gear-links in a multi-link articulated gear (MLAG). Each of the links comprising at least two gear wheels. The transmission gear further comprising a common axis adapted to allow the links to rotate freely with respect to each other about the common axis and thus to allow change of the angle between the at least two links and thereby to change the distance between the input shaft and the output shaft.

A vehicle with a chassis supported by a multiple-lifting-tandems suspension of four, six, eight, ten or twelves lifting tandem pairs, where each lifting tandem pair comprises a front wheel and a rear wheel rotatably mounted to a rocker arm whereas both wheels may or may not be steerable; a link arm having a proximal end rotatably mounted to the chassis and a distal end rotatably mounted to a central portion of the rocker arm; an actuator having a proximal end rotatably mounted to the chassis a distance from the proximal end of the link arm and a distal end rotatably mounted to a central portion of the rocker arm or to a distal end of the link arm, the actuator extending to move the rocker arm to an extended position and retracting to move the rocker arm to a retracted position; and drive means engaging each front wheel and each rear wheel.

Provided is a tandem lift auxiliary axle suspension assembly for vehicles which can be selectively raised and lowered to adjust the overall vehicle weight to axle ratio. A tandem wheel mount is connected with a pair of torsion rods to a hanger depending from the vehicle frame. An air spring mounted between the beam and the frame dampen axle movement during use. A lift spring is mounted between the hanger and the torsion rods, or other components of the assembly to selectively raise and lower the tandem axles for ground engagement as needed to decrease the weight to axle ratio.
