Disclosed is an autonomous driving vehicle including a front wheel support connected to a front wheel as one body and supporting the front wheel, and a knuckle arm angle adjustment assembly having one side to which a knuckle arm is connected, the knuckle arm moving with the front wheel during steering the front wheel, and knuckle arm angle adjustment assembly being coupled to one side of the front wheel support to be capable of angle adjustment for setting an inclination angle of the knuckle arm.

In a four-wheel vehicle with vertically independently movable wheels (2, 2, 3, 3), diagonally opposite wheels (2, 2 or 3, 3) are connected to one another by respective cables (9, 90) guided over deflection rollers (11 to 15).

The traction cable mounting makes it possible to adapt the height of the wheels in the event of equal loading of the individual wheels independently of the terrain.

The invention concerns a suspension element for self-propelled machine comprising: a suspension fork (100) secured to the chassis of the machine and comprising two parallel arms (120, 130), a motor (400), secured to two sleeves (200, 300) each comprising at least one bearing (210A, 210B, 310A, 310B) adapted to slide in translation on the arms (120, 130),
the suspension element being characterized in that the two sleeves (10) (200, 300) are separate parts, the motor (400) comprising a casing (410) adapted to form a supporting frame allowing the ensured rigid connection between the two sleeves (200, 300) and for this purpose comprising connecting means designed to ensure the connection between the supporting frame of the motor and each of the two sleeves over a center distance range of the sleeves while withstanding the forces applied by the chassis on the casing.

A shock absorber includes a tubular outer tube, a tubular inner tube, a rod, a piston, an urging member, and a guide bush. The guide bush is a ring-shaped member arranged along an inner periphery of the outer tube, abuts against a front surface and a rear surface of the inner tube to movably hold the inner tube, and is separated from left and right side surfaces of the inner tube.

A vehicle suspension assembly includes a vehicle frame rail, a slide rail extending longitudinally along the vehicle frame rail and slidably adjustable thereto, a support bracket extending downwardly from the slide rail, a trailing arm pivotably coupled to the support bracket, a spring member positioned between the trailing arm and the slide rail, and an elastically resilient coupling arrangement coupling the slide rail to the vehicle frame rail, wherein the coupling member is configured to elastically deform during vertical displacement of the vehicle frame rail with respect to the slide rail.

Roll damper assembly for a vehicle suspension, comprising: a first bracket comprising first inner and outer bracket; a second bracket comprising second inner and outer bracket; a roll damper mounted between first and second inner bracket; first mount coupled to first outer bracket and second mount coupled to second outer bracket; first guide rod attached at first end to first outer bracket, and slidably attached to inner second bracket; a second guide rod attached at a first end to second outer bracket, and slidably attached to inner first bracket; first end stopper mounted on the second end of said first guide rod to stop second end of said first guide rod from exiting from slidable attachment to inner second bracket; second end stopper mounted on second end of said second guide rod to stop second end of said second guide rod from exiting from slidable attachment to inner first bracket.

A locking mechanism configured to selectively secure a vehicle slider frame assembly to a vehicle frame assembly includes a locking member configured to move between a locked position and an unlocked position, an actuator shaft operably coupled with the locking member such that turning the actuator shaft along a longitudinal axis of the actuator shaft moves the locking member between the locked and unlocked positions, the actuator shaft including a first portion and a second portion that telescopingly engage one another and are releasably secured to one another, and a spring member positioned over the actuator shaft and configured to bias the at least one locking member toward the locked position.

A vehicle suspension has a fixed portion and a movable portion configured to be movable relative to the fixed portion. The movable portion is coupled, at a predetermined part, with a shaft carrying a vehicle wheel, the fixed portion and the movable portion being movably linked via two damper devices and at least two prismatic joints so as to be able to move reciprocally one to the other along an axis. A set comprising one damper device and at least one prismatic joint is disposed opposite to another set comprising one damper device and at least one prismatic joint relative to the predetermined part.

A suspension element includes a housing, a first joint, and a second joint. The housing is configured to couple a tractive element assembly to a vehicle. The housing has a first end configured to engage a portion of the vehicle and a second end configured to interface with the tractive element assembly. The first joint includes a first actuator and a first resilient member. The first actuator is configured to facilitate linear extension and retraction of the suspension element. The second joint includes a second actuator and a second resilient member. The second actuator is configured to facilitate rotational movement of the suspension element. The first resilient member and the second resilient member are configured to support a static load of the vehicle.

A suspension system for a vehicle is provided. A linear regenerative suspension system that converts mechanical energy into storable electrical energy is also provided. The system utilizes pistons, one on each side of the vehicle, engaged with a vehicle body at a distal end and having a fluid chamber at the proximal end. The system further has a central chamber having a rod freely laterally moving therein. A fluid communicates between the central chamber and each piston fluid chamber. Upon nonlinear forces applied to the vehicle, the rod is urged in one direction or another. This urging applies force to the fluid in the central chamber, and in turn, to the piston in the corresponding side of the vehicle, urging the piston up and in turn urging the vehicle body up.
