SELF-CONTAINED AIRSHOCK ASSEMBLY
An airshock assembly is disclosed. The airshock assembly includes a shock absorber an airspring, and an air compressor assembly. The airspring is axially coupled with a portion of the shock absorber and used to modify a ride height of the shock absorber. The air compressor assembly is coupled with a portion of the shock absorber. The air compressor assembly is used to modify an air pressure in the airspring without requiring the airshock assembly to utilize an air reservoir.
Tubular member and shock absorber
A bump cap includes: a tubular main body part; and three or more protrusions provided at different positions in a circumferential direction of an inner circumference of the main body part. A plurality of protrusions are press-fit protrusions having a radial height higher than a radial height of the other protrusions, and the number of the press-fit protrusions are smaller than the number of the other protrusions, and the bump cap is configured to be mounted on an outer circumference of an outer shell of a shock absorber in state where the press-fit protrusions are pushed against the outer circumference of the outer shell.
CASING CONFIGURATION FOR MPE AXLE SET
An apparatus for supplying hydraulic energy in a chassis system of a vehicle including at least three construction groups, which are arranged in an overall casing constructed of at least three partial casings. The three partial casings respectively adjoin each other and are closed there with a sealing adhesive.
SIDE MOUNTED AIR SUPPLY FOR WHEEL LIFT INDEPENDENT OF VEHICLE AIR BRAKE
Apparatus and associated methods relate to a vehicle having independent fluid reservoirs for a fluid-activated brake system and at least one auxiliary fluid consumer. In an illustrative example, a first reservoir may be mounted above a chassis and outboard of a vehicle such that longitudinal axes of the reservoir and the vehicle are substantially aligned. The first reservoir may, for example, be fluidly coupled to a fluidly activated brake configured to brake at least one wheel on at least one axle of the vehicle and fluidly coupled to the first reservoir. At least one second reservoir may be fluidly coupled to at least one auxiliary fluid consumer of the vehicle such that the first reservoir is fluidly independent from the at least one second reservoir and the at least one auxiliary fluid consumer. Various embodiments may advantageously provide stable air supply for critical braking functions of the vehicle.
ELECTRIC HEIGHT CONTROL DEVICE
An electric height control device may include: an oil storage part configured to store oil therein; a motor driving part inserted into the oil storage part and driven when power is applied thereto; a hydraulic block part coupled to the motor driving part, connected to the oil storage part, and configured to amplify oil; and a control part coupled to the hydraulic block part, and configured to control the motor driving part and the hydraulic block part.
SUSPENSION SYSTEM FOR A VEHICLE
A suspension system for a vehicle includes a knuckle defining a bore therethrough. The suspension system includes a wheel hub rotatably mounted on the knuckle. Further, the suspension system includes an axle at least partially received within the bore of the knuckle and operatively coupled to the wheel hub. The suspension system includes a pump driven by the axle and configured to generate pressurized fluid. The suspension system includes an actuator receiving pressurized fluid from the pump.
Coolant pump assembly
A coolant pump assembly includes an electric coolant pump for a motor vehicle. The electric coolant pump includes a multi-part pump housing and an electric drive unit arranged in the multi-part pump housing. The multi-pat housing includes a coolant inlet, a coolant outlet, and a fastening assembly via which the electric coolant pump is detachably connected in an engine compartment to an engine component and/or to a body part. The fastening assembly includes at least one screw connection and at least one interlocking connection.
Aerodynamic cover of vehicle
An aerodynamic cover of a suspension device of a vehicle includes an upper horizontal portion that is located on an upper side of the arm member and extends in a horizontal direction, a lower horizontal portion that is located under the arm member and extends in the horizontal direction, an engaging portion that is provided on one of the upper and lower horizontal portions and engaged with the arm member, and a bolt receiving portion that is provided on the other horizontal portion and bolted to the arm member. The engaging portion includes an arm portion extending in the horizontal direction, and a claw portion provided on a distal side of the arm portion and engaged with the arm member. A rib provided on the arm portion extends in a direction of extension of the arm portion, and protrudes in a vertical direction with respect to the arm portion.
COVERING PART FOR A CHASSIS ELEMENT OF A MOTOR VEHICLE
A covering element for a chassis element of a motor vehicle, comprising a covering surface, which covers at least a part of the chassis element, and a first fastening section, which extends from the surface of the covering element to the chassis element and has receptacles for fasteners. The disclosure includes a covering element has an opening that enables access to a first fastening section.
HEIGHT ADJUSTMENT SYSTEM
Disclosed is a low cost air suspension adjustment system that employs a visible height indicator. The combination of an externally-viewable suspension height green zone or desired height indicator and automatic pressure control enables a low-cost simple height adjustment system. The height adjustment system of the present invention includes a PCU which can be a module that houses an ECU (electronic control unit with a microprocessor), at least one solenoid valve 16, a pressure sensor 18 and a remote control device to instruct the ECU.
