A refueling vehicle may have a front fuel dispensing module with at least one or more hoses for dispensing fuel product from the fuel tank to an external tank. The front fuel dispensing module is located between the cab and the fuel tank containing the fuel product.

A leaf spring bearing for supporting a leaf spring against a transportation vehicle body having a body-side coupling portion and at least one elastomer portion for compensating displacements transverse to the supporting direction. A centering apparatus for interlockingly engaging with a vehicle-body-side counter-contour is provided on the coupling portion. The centering apparatus on the coupling portion guides the coupling portion of the leaf spring bearing in the event of deviations from a target contact position on the transportation vehicle body transverse to the supporting direction, toward the target contact position. Also disclosed is a transportation vehicle wheel suspension having the disclosed leaf spring bearing and an assembly method.

Certain exemplary embodiments can provide a system comprising a frame, which can comprise a backbone, which defines a backbone longitudinal axis. The frame can further comprise a handle coupled to the backbone. The handle is positioned to allow a user to lift and position the frame. An actuator is coupled to the backbone. The actuator defines an actuator longitudinal axis.

A front frame assembly for a motor vehicle includes a suspension attachment structure fixable to a body cell, one or more attachment elements fixed relative to the suspension attachment structure to allow a suspension of the motor vehicle to be coupled to the suspension attachment structure, and an absorption element to absorb a front crash of the motor vehicle, the absorption element being fixed relative to the suspension attachment structure and extending in a projecting manner relative to the suspension attachment structure along a first straight axis until ending with one end opposite the suspension attachment structure, wherein the assembly comprises a channel extending with continuity through the absorption element and the suspension attachment structure between an inlet opening obtained at the end along the first axis and an outlet opening obtained in the suspension attachment structure along a second axis transversal to the first axis.

Presented are mobile charging stations for recharging electrified vehicles, methods for making/using such mobile charging stations, and parking facilities equipped with such mobile charging stations. A mobile charging station includes a frame with multiple drive wheels and a prime mover operable to drive the wheels to propel the charging station. A hydrogen storage container and fuel cell are mounted to the frame. The fuel cell oxidizes hydrogen received from the storage container to generate electrical current. An electrical coupling mechanism connects the fuel cell to a traction battery pack of an electric-drive vehicle. A resident or remote controller is programmed to receive charge requests to recharge vehicles, and responsively determines path plan data for the mobile charging station. The controller commands the prime mover to propel the mobile charging station from the charger's origin to a charger destination, and enables the fuel cell to transmit electrical current to the vehicle.
