A work vehicle includes a plurality of traveling devices for driving traveling, a plurality of articulated link mechanisms having at least two or more joints and supporting the plurality of traveling devices to a vehicle body, with allowing the plurality of traveling devices to be elevated/lowered independently of each other, a driving mechanism capable of changing respective postures of the plurality of articulated link mechanisms independently of each other, and a plurality of turning mechanisms configured to support the respective plurality of the articulated link mechanisms, with allowing the link mechanisms to be orientation-changeable about a vertical axis.

A motor vehicle has a steering axle, a drive axle and a lift axle having an actuator for lifting and lowering the same. The wheels of the drive axle can be electrically driven, at least in a supporting manner, via an electric machine operable as an electric motor and as a generator, and the wheels can be driven in a generating manner in a recuperation operation. The electric machine is connected to an accumulator and to a control and/or regulation device to control the operation of the lift axle. The device is connected to sensors for wheel slip detection at the drive axle. The device is configured such that, during a recuperation operation, it can send a command to the actuator to lift the lift axle and thereby unload the wheels thereof, if there is wheel slip at least at one wheel of the drive axle.

A driving apparatus having transformable wheels including: a drive unit generating forward/reverse torque; a wheel assembly traveling on the ground by receiving torque from the drive unit, the wheel assembly being variable in a diameter; a power transmission transmitting the forward/reverse torque generated by the drive unit to the wheel assembly in only one direction; and a mode switching unit changing the diameter of the wheel assembly depending on a rotation direction of the drive unit.

In one example, mobile industrial equipment for coupling to a truck for on highway transportation is provided. The mobile industrial equipment includes a frame to connect to the truck, a plurality of wheels connected to the frame, and a track assembly connected to the frame. In another example a method for using mobile equipment is provided. The method includes transporting mobile industrial equipment over the highway with a plurality of wheels connected to a frame of the mobile industrial equipment. The frame of the mobile industrial equipment is separated from the truck. The mobile industrial equipment is moved while separated from the truck using a track connected to the frame of the mobile industrial equipment.

A guiding vehicle (100) for an intralogistics system, wherein the guiding vehicle (100) is remote controlled or autonomous and configured to be connected to a self-propelled load bearing cart (200), and guide and control the propulsion of the self-propelled load bearing cart (200) such that the load bearing cart (200) can transport a load in the intralogistics system. The guiding vehicle (100) comprising a mechanical connector (170) for mechanically connecting the guiding vehicle (100) to the load bearing cart (200) and a connector for transferring data. The guiding vehicle (100) is configured to receive navigation data from the self-propelled load bearing cart (200), using the connector for transferring data, in the form of information concerning the movement of a drive wheel of the load bearing cart (200) obtained from at least one motor of the load bearing cart (200) or from at least one encoder connected to the drive wheel.

A trailer for transporting a vehicle includes a longitudinal beam extending between a forward end from which the trailer is towed and a rearward end. The trailer includes a platform having a top extending between a back and a front of the platform. The top has a support for receiving a rearward wheel of the vehicle. The platform has a mount for releasably attaching the beam to the platform. The platform has an axle extending laterally below a bottom of the platform. The trailer includes a carriage assembly having frame. A top surface of the frame includes a rest for supporting a forward wheel of the vehicle. The carriage assembly includes a connector for selectively connecting the carriage assembly to the beam in front of the platform so the carriage assembly is moveable along the beam.
