DEVICE FOR ARRANGING A PASSENGER RESTRAINT SYSTEM IN A VEHICLE
A device for arranging a passenger restraint system in a vehicle to secure a passenger seated in the vehicle, including a support arrangement having a vertical support and a cross strut. When arranged on the vehicle, the vertical support is arranged upright on a vehicle floor. The device includes a fastening element, that when arranged on the vehicle, encompasses a rail of a vehicle chassis, at least laterally and beneath, such that, when the support arrangement is arranged on the vehicle, the fastening element bears against the support arrangement. The support arrangement is held on the vehicle chassis by the fastening element and, when the support arrangement is arranged on the vehicle, the fastening element passes progressively through the vehicle floor, starting from the rail of the vehicle chassis.

GROUNDS MAINTENANCE VEHICLE WITH ADJUSTABLE SUSPENSION SYSTEM
Suspension systems and grounds maintenance vehicles incorporating the same are disclosed. The suspension system may include biasing elements or springs that may be adjusted to vary the preload and thus change the spring and dampening characteristics of the suspension system. In some embodiments, the system may include an adjustment mechanism that permits simultaneous adjustment of two springs via a single action. In other embodiments, features adapted to assist an operator with mounting/dismounting the vehicle are disclosed.

Elastic averaging shut-off slot
A method of aligning a first component and a second component with elastic averaging includes offsetting a first part and a second part of the first component and creating a shut-off slot between the first part and the second part of the first component by offsetting the first part and the second part. The shut-off slot has a slot vector that is not parallel to a main die vector.

Attachment and connecting structure for vehicle component
An attachment is configured to connect a first connecting plate of a vehicle component to a second connecting plate of a vehicle body. The attachment includes a body, first, second and third flanges, and a press-fit insert. The attachment is of an elastically deformable material and is configured to be inserted into first and second through holes of the first and second connecting plates. The flanges engage the connecting plates when the attachment is inserted into the through holes. The body includes a hole extending longitudinally within the body to accommodate the press-fit insert. The press-fit insert has a diameter greater than the diameter of the hole to form a snug connection between the press-fit insert and the hole. The insertion of the press-fit insert into the hole elastically deforms the attachment to urge the body radially against the connecting plates to provide a robust connection between the connecting plates.
