20230278533 · 2023-09-07 ·

A road vehicle comprising a vehicle body which defines along its length a longitudinal axis of the road vehicle and along its width a transversal axis of the road vehicle; a brake pedal, which is mounted on the vehicle so that it is hinged integral with the vehicle body; a braking unit also mounted integral with the vehicle body; the braking unit being mechanically connected, by means of a motion transmission system, to the brake pedal and configured to actuate the brakes of the road vehicle depending on the motion transmitted by the brake pedal; wherein the braking unit is arranged, in relation to the brake pedal, offset along the transversal axis of the road vehicle.

VEHICLES INCLUDING TRUCK ASSEMBLIES CONFIGURED TO SELECTIVELY DECOUPLE A WHEEL OF THE TRUCK ASSEMBLY

A vehicle including a plurality of truck assemblies is provided. Each truck assembly includes a truck axle, a first wheel fixed to the truck axle, a second wheel selectively coupled to the truck axle, a motor configured to rotate the truck axle, and a clutch operatively coupled to the second wheel. The clutch is positionable between a coupled position and a decoupled position. When the clutch is in the coupled position, the second wheel rotates with the truck axle, and when the clutch is in the decoupled position, the second wheel is free to rotate relative to the truck axle.

Parking Brake for an Electric Vehicle With Multi-Speed Gearbox

A commercial vehicle includes at least one driven axle, a service brake, at least one propulsion engine, and wheels. A parking brake function of the vehicle is achieved by a bistable locking means that acts on both wheels. A first and second multi-speed gearbox having respective first and second gear stages are each activated by an actuator and coupled to the wheels. The parking brake function is achieved at least in-part by concurrently activating the first and second gear stages. A computing device is configured to activate the bistable locking means when the commercial vehicle is at a standstill and configured to send a brake request via an electronic signal to an electronic brake control unit to activate the service brake.

Electrified military vehicle

A control system for operating a military vehicle according to different modes includes processing circuitry that receives a user input indicating a selected mode of the different modes, and operates a driveline and a front end accessory drive (FEAD) of the military vehicle according to the selected mode. The driveline of the military vehicle includes an engine and an integrated motor generator (IMG) and the FEAD includes multiple accessories and an electric motor-generator. The modes include an engine mode and an electric mode. In the engine mode, the engine drives the FEAD and drives tractive elements of the military vehicle through the IMG for transportation. In the electric mode, the engine is shut off to reduce a sound output of the military vehicle and the IMG drives the tractive elements of the military vehicle for transportation and the electric motor-generator drives the FEAD.

SIDE-BY-SIDE VEHICLE

A vehicle may include a CVT unit or a power source which requires ambient air. An air inlet for an air intake system coupled to the CVT unit or the power source which requires ambient air may be provided in a side of a cargo carrying portion of the vehicle. The vehicle may include a rear radius arm suspension.
