The present invention relates to a trailer landing gear leg lock device that prevents the unauthorized retraction of a trailer landing gear leg to prevent a trailer from being stolen. The lock device is further comprised of two hinge-connected halves that can be placed around the landing gear leg of a trailer, wherein the halves can then be locked together via a locking mechanism. In differing embodiments of the lock device, the locking mechanism may be secured by a plurality of housings and compartments, as well a plurality of additional locks and lock covers. The device may further comprise a plurality of other theft resistant devices and accessories.

A fire apparatus includes a chassis, a front axle coupled to the chassis, a rear axle coupled to the chassis, a ladder assembly coupled to the chassis, and a stability system. The stability system includes at least one of (i) a front downrigger coupled to the chassis or (ii) a rear downrigger coupled the chassis, and an outrigger coupled to the chassis. The at least one of (i) the front downrigger or (ii) the rear downrigger and the outrigger are extendable and retractable to facilitate leaning the fire apparatus at least two degrees relative to a ground surface while maintaining full operational capability of the ladder assembly.

A vehicle includes a chassis, an implement assembly coupled to the chassis, a stability system coupled to the chassis, and a control system. The stability system includes extendable components that selectively engage a ground surface. The control system is configured to control the stability system to level the vehicle and enable the stability system to lean the vehicle when an operational capability of the implement assembly is at a limit thereof while the vehicle is level to effectively improve the operational capability relative to when the vehicle is level.

A training apparatus has exercise equipment mounted to a side surface or a roof of a land vehicle or for mounting to a surface such as a wall of a building or ship. The exercise equipment includes a support structure which is attached to the surface or roof. In some embodiments the support structure is maneuverable by pivoting with respect to the surface or roof, whilst remaining attached thereto, between a stowed condition and an exercising condition.

Vehicles may be composed of a relatively few number of “modules” that are assembled together during a final assembly process. An example vehicle may include a body module, a first drive module coupled to a first end of the body module, and a second drive module coupled to a second end of the body module. One or both of the drive modules may include a pair of wheels, a battery, an electric drive motor, and/or a heating ventilation and air conditioning (HVAC) system. One or both of the drive modules may also include a crash structure to absorb impacts. If a component of a drive module fails or is damaged, the drive module can be quickly and easily replaced with a new drive module, minimizing vehicle down time.

A trailer jack device is provided. The device may include: a gearbox for actuating a trailer; and a mount connected to the gearbox via a tube. The mount may be configured to couple the trailer to the gearbox. Further, the gearbox may have a gear reduction ratio for a power drill to perform at peak efficiency while minimizing motor burnout.
