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.

Methods and systems are provided for a fuel tank and suspension system. In one example, a system may include arranged a dampener between the fuel tank and the suspension system. The dampener may be configured to couple to the fuel tank or suspension system such that a threshold distance between a spud of the fuel tank and a stability bar of the suspension system may be maintained.

A roll stabilization system (1) for a motor vehicle which has a DC voltage converter (6) associated with an electric roll stabilizer (2). By way of the DC voltage converter, a feed voltage can be transformed into a supply voltage for the roll stabilizer (2). To produce as compact a structure as possible, the DC voltage converter (6) is integrated in the electric roll stabilizer (2).

A vehicle with 3 or more wheels includes at least two wheels aligned on the same axis. The vehicle has an intermediate centerline plane between the wheels parallel to a direction of movement, including a mass suspended in relation to the wheels defining a passenger or containment compartment, and two suspension groups kinematically connecting the suspended mass to the two aligned wheels. An anti-roll stabilizer device has at least one compensation mass kinematically connected to the suspended mass via a guide and movable in relation thereto. The anti-roll stabilizer device has a drive of the compensation mass to distance or bring the compensation mass closer to the centerline plane on the side opposite the displacement of a barycenter of the suspended mass with respect to the same centerline plane, to oppose the displacement with respect to the centerline plane of the position of the barycenter of the suspended mass.

The invention relates to structural components of vehicles, and more particularly to the suspension of both conventional and special vehicles, such as ambulances, baby carriages and wheelchairs. The suspension comprises a quadrangular frame with a pair of arms attached thereto, where the ends of said arms are configured to be connected to the hubs of the respective wheels, and the suspension of the present invention comprises two pairs of armsa pair of identical transverse arms and a pair of identical longitudinal arms with the ends of the longitudinal arms configured to be connected to the hubs of the respective wheels, wherein each arm is rotatably attached by its central zone to the central portion of the corresponding side of a quadrangular frame through rubber-metal joint, wherein the arms contact surfaces are cylindrical, they are adapted for mechanical coupling of arms to each other and are oriented as follows: longitudinal left and right arms have their contact surfaces oriented upwards, while transverse front and back arms have their contact surfaces oriented downwards, contact surfaces of each arm are tangent to the plane extending through the axis of rotation of the arm and are located on one side of it, while each side of the quadrangular frame rests upon the hubs of two wheels through the corresponding arm. Each transverse and longitudinal arm is made as a pair of arms spaced apart and connected by at least one connecting rod, and each such spaced arm has the form of a parallelogram. The invention is based on the objective to provide the suspension, which is more reliable due to lower level of mechanical stresses in the suspension mechanisms, which results from creation of the conditions where the function of the mechanism for changing the direction of rotation is performed by a transverse arm having a length equal to the width of the suspension.

A bracket (11) has an annular portion (12) provided with a trapezoidal convex portion (13) extending from an inner peripheral edge (12C) to outer peripheral edge (12D) of the annular portion. The convex portion has a top region (13A), an outer wall-side falling region (13B), and an inner wall-side falling region (13C). The annular portion and one vehicle body mounting portion (17) are connected to each other through a non-linear connecting portion (20), and the annular portion and the other vehicle body mounting portion (18) are connected to each other through a non-linear connecting portion (21). This structure makes it possible to increase the moment of inertia of area of the annular portion and to increase the flexural rigidity of the bracket. Further, it is possible to suppress a problem that the connecting portion (20) and the connecting portion (21) become nodes of vibration.

An actively adjustable wheel suspension for the wheels of an axle of a motor vehicle, wherein each wheel is articulated on the body side of the motor vehicle via a plurality of wheel control elements, includes for each wheel on the axle a rotary actuator which is supported on the body side and includes a torsion bar. The two rotary actuators can be activated for active adjustment via a control unit, with the rotary actuators and the torsion bars of the rotary actuators being oriented in motor vehicle longitudinal direction. The rotary actuators include each at least one strut, which is oriented in motor vehicle transverse direction, for torque support.

A motor vehicle series includes two different motor vehicle variants. The two motor vehicle variants include an identically designed chassis component fastening device, to which a stabilizer is fastened in the first motor vehicle variant and a motor-pump unit assembly with a motor-pump unit of a hydraulic damping system is fastened in the second motor vehicle variant. The motor-pump unit assembly includes a motor-pump unit for a hydraulic damping system. A holding tube is fastened to the motor-pump unit. A holding element, which is configured to be mounted on a chassis component fastening device of a motor vehicle, is fastened to the end of the holding tube facing away from the motor-pump unit.

The present disclosure relates to suspension systems, control methods, and vehicles. One example suspension system includes a suspension assembly, a driver, a controller, a compressor, and a gas tank. The suspension assembly has a gas spring and a height sensor. The gas tank contains gas, the gas tank is connected to the compressor through a first ventilation pipe, and the compressor is connected to the gas spring through a second ventilation pipe. A first switch valve is disposed on the first ventilation pipe, and a second switch valve is disposed on the second ventilation pipe. The driver is separately electrically connected to the controller, the compressor, the first switch valve, the second switch valve, and the height sensor. The suspension system is installed between a wheel and a vehicle body of the vehicle.
