A freight vehicle has a frame defining a support surface for the goods to be transported, a plurality of rubberized wheel assemblies with suspensions, the height of which can be adjusted to shift the support surface between a lowered loading position and a raised transport position, and a driver's cab arranged beneath said support surface; the cab being coupled to, and overhanging, the frame by means of an articulated quadrilateral transmission unit and being shifted by pneumatic actuators configured to vertically move the whole cab in relation to the support surface between two extreme end positions, one approaching the support surface and one spaced apart from said support surface, and to arrange the cab in a cushioned intermediate position for the transport of the goods.

To provide a stowing device, cab, and working machine, that may hardly make an operation cabin dirty by something stored such as outdoor shoes and prevent something stored from being made dirty or lost. A stowing device is disposed accessibly from behind an operator's seat in an operation cabin on an inside of a cab comprising an entrance at a back part and comprises a stowing part capable of storing something. As it is possible to store outdoor shoes in the stowing part (40) and change into indoor shoes when getting on the operation cabin through the entrance, the operation cabin will be hardly made dirty by the dust attached on the outdoor shoes and others. As something such as outdoor shoes may be stored in the cab, something stored will not get dirty in the rainy weather and be prevented from being lost during work.

A radio-controlled vehicle includes a supporting structure, an engine unit, a kinetic unit and a remote control for operating the vehicle remotely, The radio-controlled vehicle also has a cab configured to house, in use, a person. The cab and the supporting structure are mutually movable with respect to each other to selectively arrange the cab in a desired position with respect to the supporting structure.

An anti-collision system includes a truck cab defining a truck cab volume and a sensor positioned with respect to the truck cab. The truck cab is rotatable with respect to the truck chassis along a rotation path to define a truck cab rotation volume. The truck cab volume is entirely within the truck cab rotation volume along the entire rotation path, i.e., the truck cab rotation volume encompasses the truck cab volume at every position of the truck cab volume along the rotation path. The sensor has a field of view (FOV) that overlaps a portion of the truck cab rotation volume to detect an obstruction in the FOV that is within the truck cab rotation volume. The sensor may also cause the system to provide an alert or control rotation of the truck cab in response to detecting the obstruction.

A work machine comprises a main body, a cab riser, and a shaft. The cab riser includes a cab and a frame, the cab being uprightly positioned on the work machine in a first position, and being tilted forward in a second position, and the frame comprising a first plate to contact a second plate provided on the main body in the first position. The cab riser is rotatable about the shaft in clockwise and counterclockwise directions to and from the first position and the second position. The first plate and the second plate can be clamped together by a clamping assembly in the first position, the clamping assembly including one or more clamps to clamp the first plate and the second plate, and the clamping assembly is mounted on the main body.

A chassis for a vehicle includes a frame having a first end and an opposing second end. The frame includes a first frame rail defining a first channel, a second frame rail defining a second channel and that is spaced from the first frame rail, and a cross member assembly coupled to the first end of the frame and extending between the first frame rail and the second frame rail. The cross member assembly includes a first end plate positioned within and releasably received by the first channel of the first frame rail, a second end plate positioned within and releasably received by the second channel of the second frame rail, and a cross member extending between the first end plate and the second end plate.

Aspects of the disclosure relate to a mechanical joint with five degrees of freedom. In certain embodiments, the mechanical joint includes first and second triangular linkages The first triangular linkage includes a base end configured to hingedly couple to a first body to pivot relative to the first body and a vertex end that includes a first rotational member. The second triangular linkage includes a base end configured to hingedly couple to a second body to pivot relative to the second body and a vertex end that includes a second rotational member. The first rotational member and the second rotational member are rotationally coupled to form a all joint. With this joint, the second body is moveable in two translational degrees of freedom and restricted in one translational degree of freedom relative to the first body. Such a configuration allows vertical movement and/or reduces stress on the joint.
