The invention concerns a suspension element for self-propelled machine comprising: a suspension fork (100) secured to the chassis of the machine and comprising two parallel arms (120, 130), a motor (400), secured to two sleeves (200, 300) each comprising at least one bearing (210A, 210B, 310A, 310B) adapted to slide in translation on the arms (120, 130),
the suspension element being characterized in that the two sleeves (10) (200, 300) are separate parts, the motor (400) comprising a casing (410) adapted to form a supporting frame allowing the ensured rigid connection between the two sleeves (200, 300) and for this purpose comprising connecting means designed to ensure the connection between the supporting frame of the motor and each of the two sleeves over a center distance range of the sleeves while withstanding the forces applied by the chassis on the casing.

An assembly for supporting a vehicle chassis on a wheel of the vehicle includes a wheel attachment component for attaching the assembly to the wheel, a chassis attachment component for attaching the assembly to the vehicle chassis, and a suspension component. At least one adjustment element is coupled with the chassis attachment component and with a first portion of the suspension component, and is configured to shift the first portion of the suspension element between a plurality of operating positions relative to the chassis attachment component. A single strut bar is rigidly coupled with the wheel attachment component and with a second portion of the suspension component, and is configured to pivot relative to the chassis attachment component. The suspension component is configured to regulate motion transfer between the wheel attachment component and the chassis attachment component.

An assembly for supporting a vehicle chassis on a wheel of the vehicle includes a wheel attachment component for attaching the assembly to a wheel, a chassis attachment component for pivotably attaching the assembly to a chassis of the vehicle, and a suspension component operably interposed between the wheel attachment component and the chassis attachment component. A first adjustment element is coupled with the chassis attachment component and coupled with a first portion of the suspension component, and a second adjustment element is coupled with the chassis attachment component and coupled with the first portion of the suspension component. The first and second adjustment elements are configured to shift the first portion of the suspension component between a plurality of operating positions relative to the chassis attachment component. A single strut bar slidingly engages the wheel attachment component and is rigidly coupled with a second portion of the suspension component.

A suspension control system can include a chassis and a suspension component operably coupled with the chassis. A boom assembly can be operably coupled with the chassis. One or more sensors can be configured to generate data indicative of a chassis orientation or boom assembly orientation relative to a level axis. A computing system can be communicatively coupled to the one or more sensors. The computing system can be configured to calculate an offset angle based on data from the one or more sensors, compare the offset angle to a defined correction threshold, and generate instructions to actuate the suspension component by a correction factor when the offset angle exceeds the defined correction threshold.

An agricultural machine includes a frame, a ground-engaging element, a suspension system that movably supports the frame relative to the ground-engaging element, wherein the suspension system is configured to apply, for a given displacement of the frame relative to the ground-engaging element, a force based on a force-to-displacement relationship. A control system is configured to receive an input indicative of an operational state of the agricultural machine during operation on a terrain, and automatically control the suspension system to adjust the force-to-displacement relationship of the suspension system based on the operational state.

A suspension control system can include a chassis and one or more wheel assemblies. One or more suspension assemblies can be respectively coupled to the one or more wheel assemblies. A computing system can be communicatively coupled to one or more position sensors and one or more orientation sensors. The computing system can be configured to actuate the actuator of the one or more suspension assemblies to define a stroke, determine a default stroke position based on data from the one or more position sensors, and define a default position of the chassis based on data from the one or more orientation sensors.
