The present disclosure relates to an axle beam, in particular an axle bridge, for a motor vehicle, preferably a commercial vehicle. The axle beam has a first axle beam shell and a second axle beam shell which is connected, in particular welded, to the first axle beam shell in order to configure a tubular body. The tubular body has an inner circumferential face with a plurality of flat sections which form a non-round cross section of the tubular body. The axle beam has a reinforcing component which has a non-round cross section, is arranged within the tubular body, and bears at least partially against the flat sections of the inner circumferential face of the tubular body.

To obtain a front axle frame having a high degree of strength appropriate to heavy load tasks, without resulting in a decrease in productivity or a drastic rise in costs. In a tractor that includes a front axle frame supporting a front axle case, the front axle frame is configured by a cast metal member having a support portion on a bottom of the front axle frame, the support portion supporting the front axle case.

An axle assembly having a planetary gear set and an internal brake assembly. The brake assembly may have a piston that may be disposed between a disc pack and the planetary gear set. Rotation of a sun gear of the planetary gear set may be inhibited when the piston urges the disc pack against a flange of an axle housing.

An axle assembly having a spindle yoke defining at least one fluid conduit therethrough. A collector ring disposed about the spindle yoke. A seal housing coupled with a knuckle, and the seal housing disposed coaxially with the collector ring. First and second rotary seals disposed radially between the collector ring and the seal housing. Additionally, a port disposed in the knuckle, wherein the port is in fluid communication with the spindle yoke at least one fluid conduit via the seal housing and the collector ring.

An axle assembly having an axle housing and a bowl cover. The axle housing may have a center portion that may define a bowl opening and a differential carrier opening that may receive a differential. The bowl cover may be mounted to the axle housing and may cover the bowl opening.

An axle housing assembly for a vehicle is provided. The axle housing assembly for a vehicle includes a first axle housing, a second axle housing spaced apart from the first axle housing in a front-rear direction, an upper connector and a lower connector. The upper connector defines a front end connected to the first axle housing and a rear end connected to the second axle housing, and the lower connector is disposed below the upper connector and defines a front end connected the first axle housing and a rear end connected to the second axle housing. A vehicle including the axle housing assembly is also provided.

Embodiments herein relate to a wheelchair gearshift arrangement (10), which comprises an axle tube (20) and a pair of wheel attachment adaptors (30) inserted into a respective end (21, 22) of the axle tube (20). The wheel attachment adaptors (30) further includes a respective axle sleeve (40) adapted to receive and hold a respective wheel axle (51) of a respective complete wheelchair wheel (50). Each complete wheelchair wheel (50) having a respective wheel axle centric, axially translatable, gear change mechanism (52). One or more gear change actuators (80) are arranged within the axle tube (20) such that they are operative to selectively, upon user manipulation of an associated gear selector (60), axially translate the associated gear change mechanisms (52) of the respective complete wheelchair wheels (50). Such translation will affect a change of gear ratio between a push-rim (55) and wheel-rim (56) of each respective complete wheelchair wheel (50).

An integrated fan and axle arrangement for an agricultural machine having a an impeller may include a front axle assembly and a fan housing. The front axle assembly supports one or more front wheels of the agricultural vehicle. The impeller rotates within the fan housing to provide an air flow within the agricultural vehicle. A laterally extending portion of the fan housing may form part of the front axle assembly, such that the laterally extending portion of the fan housing may provide structural rigidity to the front axle assembly for the support of the one or more front wheels.

An axle assembly having an axle housing, a differential, and a ballast insert. The ballast insert may be disposed in the axle housing below the differential. The differential may have a ring gear. The ring gear may be received in a trench that may be provided in the ballast insert.
