DISCONNECTABLE WORK IMPLEMENT DRIVE SYSTEM
An implement drive system is provided for an implement towed by a prime mover vehicle in a work vehicle train. The system includes an axle arrangement and an auxiliary power unit. The auxiliary power unit includes an electric motor; a planetary gear set receiving rotational input from the electric motor and providing a rotational output with a decreased rotational speed and an increased torque relative to the rotational input; and a disconnect device having an output configured to be coupled to the axle arrangement. The disconnect device is movable to a first position in which the disconnect device transfers the rotational output from the planetary gear set to the axle arrangement such the rotational input drives the wheels of the implement. The disconnect device is movable to a second position in which the disconnect device decouples the axle arrangement from the rotational input of the electric motor.
VEHICLE
A vehicle for transporting cargo includes a front end unit having a front wheel, a rear end unit having a rear wheel, and a carrying unit on which the cargo is loaded and which is interposed between the front end unit and the rear end unit so that the front end unit and the rear end unit are coupled to each other via the carrying unit. The carrying unit is configured to be separated from the front end unit and the rear end unit in a direction intersecting a direction in which the vehicle travels and to be coupled to the front end unit and the rear end unit while the front end unit and the rear end unit are stationary.
Vehicle operational diagnostics and trailer health status system combination
A vehicle operational diagnostics and condition response system includes at least an axle supporting a cargo transport unit frame, a suspension disposed between and secured to each the cargo transport unit frame and the axle, a load detection device interacting with the suspension and communicating with a system controller, wherein the system controller is supported by the cargo transport unit frame, and a cargo transport unit health status system supported by the cargo transport unit and configured to communicate with the system controller. The cargo transport unit health status system provides state status information for monitored operational elements of the cargo transport unit.
