An operator station suspension system including isolators, a butterfly crossbar and station connection locations located on the butterfly crossbar. The butterfly crossbar includes a central crossbar that extends laterally with forward extending arms rigidly connected at the left and right ends, and rearward extending arms rigidly connected at the left and right ends of the central crossbar. The butterfly crossbar couples to the operator station at the station connection locations with one of the isolators located between the butterfly crossbar and the operator station at each of the station connection locations to reduce noise and vibration. Each connection location can have a connection post, and the isolators can be ring-shaped to fit over the connection posts. The suspension system can also include shock dampers for vertical movement, control linkages for pitch motion, and/or stabilizer linkages for roll motion of the subframe structure relative to the chassis.

A vibration dampening system for a work vehicle may include a chassis frame extending lengthwise between a front end and a rear end. The chassis frame may include a first sidewall extending lengthwise along a first side of the frame between the front and rear ends and a second sidewall extending lengthwise along a second side of the frame between the front and rear ends. The system may also include a cab frame supported relative to the chassis frame via a suspension assembly, and a vibration damper coupled between the opposed first and second sides of the chassis frame. The vibration damper may extend lengthwise between a first end coupled to the first sidewall and a second end coupled to the second sidewall. The vibration damper is configured to reduce an amount of vibrations being transmitted through the chassis frame to the cab frame via the suspension assembly.

An operator station suspension system including a subframe structure with connection locations, isolators, and suspension components to couple the subframe structure to a chassis and enable movement of the subframe structure relative to the chassis. The subframe structure connects to an operator station at the connection locations with isolators between the subframe structure and operator station at each connection location to reduce noise and vibration. The isolators can be made of rubber, polymer or other materials. Each connection location can have a connection post, and the isolators can be ring-shaped to fit over the connection posts. The suspension components can include shock dampers that enable vertical movement, control linkages that enable pitch motion, and/or stabilizer linkages that enable roll motion of the subframe structure relative to the chassis. The subframe structure can include a rigid body with forward and rearward arms rigidly connected to the rigid body.

The invention relates to a rear suspension mounting assembly adapted to connect a cab to a vehicle chassis. A lower bracket is provided with a first fastener for securing it to a vehicle chassis. An upper bracket is provided with a second fastener for securing it to a cab. First and second connecting means connect the upper bracket to the lower bracket, wherein the first connecting means are adapted to rigidly connect the upper bracket to the lower bracket, the second connecting means are adapted to movably connect the upper bracket to the lower bracket. When the brackets are connected by both connecting means, the upper bracket is rigidly connected to the lower bracket, wherein the first connecting means are dimensioned to break when subjected to a threshold force at which the second connecting means remain intact and allow the upper bracket to move relative to the lower bracket.

A method for assembling an agricultural vehicle including the initial step of providing the agricultural vehicle including a frame, a hydraulic manifold, and a cab suspension system. The cab suspension system includes an anti-roll bar, a pair of support brackets configured for securing the anti-roll bar to the frame, and a pair of intermediary placement brackets configured for temporarily supporting the anti-roll bar in a final assembly position. The method includes the further steps of attaching the intermediary placement brackets onto the frame, positioning the anti-roll bar on the intermediary placement brackets to position the anti-roll bar in the final assembly position, assembling the hydraulic manifold onto the frame, and connecting the support brackets to the frame and the anti-roll bar.

A suspension system for a cab of an agricultural vehicle having a frame. The suspension system includes a pair of first mounts configured for connecting the cab to the frame at a first region, a pair of second mounts configured for connecting the cab to the frame at a second region, and a pair of actuators configured for connecting the cab to the frame at a third region. The actuators are configured for variably damping a movement of the cab. The suspension system also includes a first suspension linkage laterally connected in between the second mounts. The suspension system also includes a second suspension linkage configured for connecting the cab to the frame at a fourth region. The second suspension linkage is configured for limiting a rotation of the cab about the longitudinal axis of the frame.

A vehicle is disclosed which includes a frame with a viscous isolator, a first pin receptor, a retainer, a cab, and a pin. The first pin receptor includes a base portion mounted to the viscous isolator and a top portion movable within a limited range relative to the frame. The retainer is detachably mounted to the frame such that the top portion of the first pin receptor protruding through an aperture in the retainer, and the base portion of the first pin receptor is below the aperture. A pin is received by the top portion of the first pin receptor and a second pin receptor included in a cab, rendering the cab tiltable relative to the frame about the pin. The aperture of the retainer and the base portion of the first pin receptor are each configured such that the base portion cannot pass through the aperture.
