A method of automatically adjusting the ride height of a vehicle each time the vehicle is in a particular location is provided, where the automatic ride height adjustment is based on location and ride height information previously gathered from a user.

The invention i.a. relates to a load transfer arrangement (10) for a vehicle (12) including a chassis (14) with at least one braked axle (16), the arrangement (10) comprising: a non-driven load axle (18), and an air suspension assembly (20) including at least one air cushion (22) arranged between the chassis (14) and the non-driven load axle (18) in order to transfer load from the braked axle(s) (16) to the non-driven load axle (18), wherein the non-driven load axle (18) is unbraked, and wherein the arrangement (10) further comprises: an evacuation controller (24) configured to provide a pressure release trigger in response to a current or predicted braking event of the vehicle (12), and at least one evacuation valve (26) configured to, in response to receiving the pressure release trigger, evacuate pressure from the at least one air cushion (22) in order to remove load from the non-driven load axle (18) and increase load on the braked axle(s) (16).

An air suspension system includes an air suspension, a compressor, a dryer apparatus, and so forth. The dryer apparatus includes a dryer case, an inner cylinder, a first inlet port, a first outlet port, a first desiccant, an outer cylinder, a second inlet port, a second outlet port, a second other-end side filter, a second desiccant, and so forth. The first desiccant comprises a molecular sieve, for example, which exhibits high water adsorption performance at high temperature. On the other hand, the second desiccant comprises silica gel, for example, which exhibits high water adsorption performance at low temperature.

A vehicle height adjustment system includes: a cylinder housing part having an inner space configured to receive working fluid; a piston part positioned in the cylinder housing part, the piston part configured to move linearly, in response to a working fluid, in a moving direction along the cylinder housing part; and a rotation suppressing bracket coupled to the cylinder housing part and connected to a side surface of the piston part, the rotation suppressing bracket configured to suppress rotational movement with respect to the moving direction of the piston part.

A vehicle height adjustment system includes: an input housing part having a space in which working fluid is stored; an input piston part positioned in the input housing part, the input piston part configured to move along a lengthwise direction of the input housing part; a lead screw inserted into the input piston part, the lead screw configured to move in response to receiving external power; and a connection part fastening the input piston part with the lead screw.

Systems and apparatuses include a chassis mount configured to couple to a vehicle chassis, an axle assembly including wheels, a four-bar linkage coupling the axle assembly to the chassis mount, and a hydraulic cylinder coupled between the chassis mount and the axle assembly. The hydraulic cylinder actuates the axle assembly between a raised position and a lowered position and acts as a spring damper suspension component.
