ELECTROMECHANICAL VEHICLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT UNIT AND VEHICLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT METHOD
An electromechanical vehicle height adjustment unit comprises an upper spring pad operative to support an upper end of a vehicle spring, a top mount that is displaceable relative to the upper spring pad, and a displacement mechanism coupled to the upper spring pad and the top mount and operative to displace the top mount relative to the upper spring pad in a height direction. The displacement mechanism comprises a rotary-to-linear motion conversion mechanism and an electric motor.
ELECTROMECHANICAL VEHICLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT UNIT AND VEHICLE HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT METHOD
An electromechanical vehicle height adjustment unit comprises a control arm, a lower spring pad operative to support a lower end of a vehicle spring, and a displacement mechanism supported on the control arm. At least a portion of the displacement mechanism is integrated into the control arm. The displacement mechanism is coupled to the lower spring pad and is operative to displace the lower spring pad relative to the control arm. The displacement mechanism comprises a rotary-to-linear motion conversion mechanism and an electric motor.
Chassis anchoring systems
A load anchor assembly for attachment to a tubular member having an exterior surface, comprising an anchor base and a portion extending from the anchor base adapted to secure a vehicle component. The assembly includes a boss having a first flanged end and a second end, where the boss is adapted to be positioned in first and second apertures in the exterior surface of the tubular member with the flanged end in contact with the first aperture and the second end accessible through the second aperture. There is at least one fastener connected to the anchor base and the second end to secure the anchor base to the flanged boss.
STEERING GEARBOX ATTACHMENT STRUCTURE
A steering gearbox attachment structure according to one embodiment of the present disclosure attaches and secures a steering gearbox to cross members positioned in the vehicle widthwise direction, and is equipped with support parts provided on the cross members, and a steering gearbox housing part which has contact parts. The first attachment surface of the first support part and the second attachment surface of the second support part form an angle which is greater than 90° and less than 180°.
Riding mower trailing arm suspension system
Provided is a trailing arm riding mower suspension system that includes trailing arms adapted to support hydraulic motor units and having leading ends pivotally coupled to a mower frame by way of leading end spherical joints and trailing ends having hydraulic drive unit mounts, where the trailing arms are adapted to pivot about leading end pivot locations defined by the leading end spherical joints.
REAR SUSPENSION MEMBER TRANSFER ASSEMBLIES AND METHODS
A rear suspension member (RSM) transfer assembly for transferring an RSM from a sub-assembly line to a main assembly line includes a first RSM lifter, an RSM buffer, and a second RSM lifter. The first RSM lifter is configured to travel laterally between the sub-assembly line and the main assembly line. The first RSM lifter includes a lifting body and a rotatable arm configured to retrieve the RSM from the sub-assembly line and transport the RSM to the main assembly line. The RSM buffer is configured to receive the RSM from the first RSM lifter and transport the RSM through a plurality of resting positions. The second RSM lifter is configured to receive the RSM from the RSM buffer and raise the RSM into position for installation on a vehicle.
AXLE SUSPENSION SYSTEM HAVING A SHEAR BOLT
A shear bolt and an axle suspension system having a shear bolt. The shear bolt may have a shear head and an enlarged head. The shear head may be configured to detach from the shear bolt. The enlarged head may have first and second protrusions that may be grasped by a tool in a manner that prevents tightening of the shear bolt.
STRUT-PRESSED BAR
Strut-Pressed Bar to be installed to the suspension of the car composed of two Moaatmg-Flates cut into round shape with the circular shape hole at the center that is big enough to allow the exposure of the tip of the shock-sbsorber shaft. At the rim, the holes will be drilled at the point that is match to the position of the existing bolt on the top caps of the strut-assembly to be fixed to each other. On top of the Mounting-Plate was welded with the U-shape steel plate with 2 holes drilled at the base of the II and both 2 wings extend through the rim of the mounting plate to round the tip of the shock, absorber-shaft in the middle. The strut-bar made of flat aluminium bar bended into the bird-wing shape or stretch letter M, at both ends were vertically welded with the aluminium plate with 2 holes drilled to be mounted tp the die U-shape on the Mounting-Plates
ADJUSTING DEVICE FOR A CHASSIS OF A MOTOR VEHICLE AND REAR-AXLE STEERING SYSTEM
An adjustment device (1) for a chassis of a motor vehicle. The adjustment device has an actuator (2) with a housing (5) and a spindle drive, which has an axially displaceable spindle (10), with a fixed mounting (7) on the vehicle side and a connecting element (4) on the chassis side. The spindle (10) is extended in a direction of its longitudinal axis by an extension piece (11), and the connecting element (4) is attached to the outer end (11b) of the extension piece (11).
Track kit
A track kit for a vehicle (2), having two track assemblies (1, 1), each track assembly having an endless track (5), a front idler wheel (8), an intermediate support member (6) with at least one track engaging element (7), a rear idler wheel (9), a drive wheel (10), at least one swing arm (11, 12) and a shock absorber connecting assembly (13, 14), wherein the endless track (5) has an external side featuring ground lugs (15) for ground engagement and an internal side featuring drive lugs (16) for engagement with the drive wheel (10), and the internal side is circumferentially trained around and in contact with the front idler wheel (8).
