Freight vehicle with driver's cab

A freight vehicle has a frame defining a support surface for the goods to be transported, a plurality of rubberized wheel assemblies with suspensions, the height of which can be adjusted to shift the support surface between a lowered loading position and a raised transport position, and a driver's cab arranged beneath said support surface; the cab being coupled to, and overhanging, the frame by means of an articulated quadrilateral transmission unit and being shifted by pneumatic actuators configured to vertically move the whole cab in relation to the support surface between two extreme end positions, one approaching the support surface and one spaced apart from said support surface, and to arrange the cab in a cushioned intermediate position for the transport of the goods.

Work vehicle

A work vehicle includes: an electronic control system for automatic driving; and a cabin with which a boarding space is formed. The electronic control system includes an antenna unit for satellite navigation, and the antenna unit is attached to a central area of a roof of the cabin in a left-right direction. An upper surface of an area of the roof around the antenna unit is formed so as to be an inclined surface that is inclined in a front-rear direction. Left and right end portions of the roof are provided with left and right bulging edge portions that bulge upward from the left and right end portions and have a length that spans between front and rear ends of the roof, and water drain grooves that guide water on the roof toward the left and right bulging edge portions such that water detours the antenna unit.

Flexible sound barrier and rigid mounting assembly and mounting method
11557272 · 2023-01-17 · ·

A flexible sound barrier and rigid mounting assembly, and a method of attaching to a vehicle. The sound barrier assembly includes a rigid substrate, and flexible noise barrier and decoupling layers. The decoupling and noise barrier layers are bonded, and an adhesive bonds the decoupling layer to the substrate. The decoupling and noise barrier layers are fixedly held in place by the substrate. The substrate can include slots that fit over mounting studs on the vehicle wall. The noise barrier and decoupling layers can include mounting holes that extend through both layers, where the mounting holes line up with the slots, and fit over the mounting studs. The assembly can be mounted on the mounting studs and stud fasteners can fit through a mounting hole without compressing the noise barrier and decoupling layers and sandwich the rigid substrate surrounding a slot between the stud fastener and the vehicle wall.

Roof structure and cab

A roof structure for an agricultural vehicle includes an upper roof assembly, a lower roof assembly, and an air-conditioning chamber formed in the lower roof assembly. The upper roof assembly is connectable to the lower roof assembly to surround the air-conditioning chamber. An inlet chamber and an outlet chamber for air-conditioned air are provided such that the inlet chamber and the outlet chamber between the lower roof assembly and the upper roof assembly include chambers separated from each other. The structure also includes a circulation opening for supplying recirculated air arranged at the inlet chamber and an air-guiding element arranged in the inlet chamber, at the circulation opening, and at the air-conditioning chamber. A region is sealed in relation to an external environment.

Adapter for an Isolation Mount Design

An isolation mount assembly comprises a resilient member defining a central aperture that defines a load axis and an annular depression about the load axis, and an adapter plate including an outer mechanical attachment structure that defines a first thickness and an inner attachment structure that is closer to the load axis than the outer attachment structure along a direction that is perpendicular to the load axis and that defines a second thickness. The inner attachment structure is disposed in the annular depression and the second thickness is at least twice the first thickness.
