The first side wall and the opposite second side wall extend from the base wall. Each of the first side wall and the second side wall include an interior edge, an opposite exterior edge, and an inner surface. The reinforcement flange extends along the exterior edge of the first side wall, the second edge, and the exterior edge of the second side wall. The reinforcement bracket is coupled to the interior edge of the first side wall and the interior edge of the second side wall.

The present disclosure relates to a cab suspension for a tiltable cab of a commercial vehicle, preferably a front cab-suspension. The cab suspension includes two brackets for mounting on a frame construction of the commercial vehicle in a manner fixed to the frame, a vibration construction for damping movements of the cab while the commercial vehicle is travelling, wherein the vibration construction has two lateral bearing portions and a cross-element connecting the bearing portions, and a torsion-bar construction for tilting the cab. The cab suspension is particularly notable in that the brackets have a ramp structure along which the vibration construction may be guided backwards and upwards in the event of a frontal collision and/or the vibration construction and the torsion-bar construction are functionally separate from one another.

A method for performing open-loop or closed-loop control of a driver's cab mount of a motor vehicle, wherein the driver's cab mount has dampers whose damper force can be adjusted, wherein the motor vehicle can be operated in a first driving mode in which the motor vehicle automatically carries out vehicle guidance comprising both a longitudinal guidance operation and a transverse guidance operation of the motor vehicle, and in a second driving mode where the motor vehicle can be controlled by the driver, in which driving mode a driver of the motor vehicle is intended to carry out at least part of the vehicle guidance, wherein when the motor vehicle is operated in the first driving mode, the adjustable dampers of the driver's cab mount are actuated or adjusted in such a way that pitching or rolling movements are reduced compared to the second driving mode.

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.

A motor vehicle has a chassis and a passenger cell which is mounted on the chassis by way of vibration-damping connection elements. The chassis forms an undercarriage with at least two front wheels mutually spaced in the transverse direction of the vehicle and at least two rear wheels mutually spaced in the transverse direction of the vehicle, and with at least one drive device. The chassis is provided with front and rear energy-absorbing deformation elements of a front and rear bumper structure, respectively.

A suspension system for a work vehicle includes a rear suspension assembly that includes a first shock absorber assembly and a second shock absorber assembly, such that each of the first and second shock absorber assemblies has a first end that couples to a cab of the work vehicle and a second end that couples to a chassis of the work vehicle. The rear suspension assembly further includes a brace extending laterally between the first end of the first shock absorber assembly and the first end of the second shock absorber assembly relative to a direction of travel of the work vehicle, such that the first end of the first shock absorber assembly and the first end of the second shock absorber assembly are coupled to the brace. In addition, the rear suspension assembly includes a longitudinal tie rod oriented substantially longitudinally along the direction of travel of the work vehicle, such that the longitudinal tie rod has a first end rotatably coupled to the brace and a second end configured to rotatably couple to the chassis of the work vehicle. The first end of the first shock absorber assembly and the first end of the second shock absorber assembly decouple from the cab without decoupling the brace from the first end of the first shock absorber assembly and the first end of the second shock absorber assembly.

A suspension system for controlling multiple degrees of freedom of a cab of a vehicle has mounting pads that support the cab with a spring assembly connected between the chassis and each mounting pad, allowing the cab to move with multiple degrees of freedom. A lateral rod connects with one of the mounting pads, with the chassis, and restricts sideways motion of the cab. A longitudinal rod connects with one of the mounting pads, with the chassis, and restricts forward motion of the cab. A stabilizer bar connects with one of the front mounting pads, one of the rear mounting pads, the chassis structure, and controls forward pitch rate of the cab. A roll control bar connects with the rear mounting pads and the chassis structure, and controls lateral roll rate of the cab.

A work vehicle includes a cab, a body frame and a restrictor. The body flame includes a base component, and a support frame provided on an upper side of the base component. The support frame supports the cab. The restrictor is provided to a floor frame of the cab. The restrictor is disposed between the base component and the floor frame. The restrictor includes a retaining member disposed on a lower side of the support frame, and an impact absorber disposed on a cab side of the retaining member.

The vehicle comprises a chassis that includes at least one chassis front panel, and a driving cab mounted on the chassis by a suspension allowing the driving cab to move at least vertically relative to the chassis when the vehicle is driven on-road, the driving cab comprising, for the chassis front panel, a cab front panel disposed above and in vertical alignment with the chassis front panel, while being separated from the chassis front panel by a gap permitting relative movement between the chassis front panel and the cab front panel at least vertically. For the gap, the vehicle comprises a sealing device for closing the gap, sealing device comprising a bracket attached to the corresponding cab front panel, and a flap tiltably mounted on the bracket and which extends from the bracket towards the corresponding chassis front panel across the gap.

A composite consisting of a metal member and a vibration damping material, wherein the occurrence of poor appearance when the temperature rises is suppressed. The composite of the present disclosure includes a first metal member, a second metal member, and a vibration damping material excluding fiber-reinforced plastics. The vibration damping material is arranged in at least a part of a portion where the first metal member and the second metal member overlap and is sandwiched between the first metal member and the second metal member, and there is no bonding between at least one of the first metal member and the second metal member and the vibration damping material.
