A mounting assembly for supporting a fuel supply on a vehicle, which is specifically adapted for the operable support and positioning of an auxiliary fuel supply. The vehicle with which the mounting assembly is utilized may vary significantly, but is primarily structured for use on mine haul vehicles, bulldozers, and other heavy duty commercial vehicles, wherein the operation thereof is significantly benefited or enhanced through the provision of an auxiliary, or alternate fuel supply such as, but not limited to, liquid natural gas (LNG), selectively powering the engine of the vehicle as determined by an improved electronic control system. The mounting assembly comprises a containment structure in the form of at least one fuel tank and a housing is structured to enclose the fuel tank. A base supports the housing and provides a pivot point about which the housing may be disposed between a first and second orientation.

A hydraulic pump is driven by an engine. A hydraulic motor is driven by hydraulic fluid discharged from the hydraulic pump thereby causing a vehicle to travel. A controller controls a rotation speed of the engine and a displacement of the hydraulic pump. The controller acquires a tractive force of the vehicle. The controller changes the rotation speed of the engine to a low speed side in accordance with a reduction in the tractive force.

The power-transmission device has an input shaft, an output shaft, a gear mechanism, and a motor. The gear mechanism includes a plurality of planetary gear mechanisms and a mode-switching mechanism, and transmits the rotations of the input shaft to the output shaft. The mode-switching mechanism selectively switches the drive-power transmission path of the power-transmission device between a plurality of modes. The motor is connected to the rotating elements of the planetary gear mechanisms. A target-input-torque determination unit determines the target input torque, which is a target value for the torque to be inputted to the power-transmission device. The target-output-torque determination unit determines the target output torque, which is a target value for the torque to be outputted from the power-transmission device. The command-torque determination unit uses the torque balance information to determine torque commands to the motor from the target input torque and the target output torque.

A structurally integrated fuel tank and method of assembling is disclosed. The fuel tank may comprise a body and a neck disposed on the body. The neck may be configured to be coupled to an arm of a front frame of a machine. The body may comprise a cover, an endwall and a base. The cover includes a cover hitch that defines an upper pivot bore centered about a pivot axis. The upper pivot bore is configured to receive a pivot fastener about which the fuel tank is pivotable. The endwall may be disposed below and coupled to the cover. The base may be coupled to the endwall, and may include a lower hitch that extends outward and away from the endwall. The neck and the body together define a chamber configured to store fuel. The cover is a top of such chamber.

A drive assembly receives rotational power from an input shaft rotatable about a rotation axis. The drive assembly includes a drive housing to which is mounted a wheel bearing support of a wheel mount that is configured to rotate about the rotation axis on a wheel bearing assembly. A planetary set is coupled between the input shaft and the wheel mount to selectably cause rotation of the wheel mount. The planetary set substantially fits within axial borders of the wheel bearing support and within an inner radial dimension of the wheel bearing support.

A bulldozer includes a blade, an engine, first and second exhaust treatment devices that treat exhaust from the engine, and an engine cover. The first exhaust treatment device is disposed in front of the engine and lower than a first upper surface of the engine. The second exhaust treatment device is disposed above the engine. The engine cover includes a second upper surface sloping forward and downward. The engine cover covers the engine and the first and second exhaust treatment devices. Longitudinal directions of the first and second exhaust treatment devices extend along a vehicle lateral direction. In a top view of the bulldozer, the second exhaust treatment device includes a portion overlapping the engine. As seen from a side of the bulldozer, a front edge of the second exhaust treatment device is positioned forward of a rear edge of the first exhaust treatment device.

A first grille member extends from the left side of the vehicular body toward the right side. A second grille member extends from the first grille member further toward the right side. A first pivot shaft is provided at the left side of the vehicular body. The first pivot shaft extends in the top-bottom direction of the vehicular body and pivotably supports the first grille member. A second pivot shaft extends in parallel with the first pivot shaft and couples the second grille member to the first grille member so that the second grille member is pivotable with respect to the first grille member. A fan module is pivotable about a third pivot shaft provided at the left side of the vehicular body and extending in parallel with the first pivot shaft, and at least a part of the fan module is movable to an outside of the vehicular body.

A system and method for compensating reduced track speed because of engine droop for a work machine is disclosed. The system may comprise a frame, an attachment coupled to the frame, a ground-engaging mechanism adapted to support the frame, an engine, a motor, a track speed sensor, an engine speed sensor, and a controller. The engine may drive the ground-engaging mechanism and attachment. The engine may be coupled through a variable speed transmission to the ground-engaging mechanism and the attachment. They variable speed transmission may include a hydrostatic circuit. The controller may be adapted to send an increased transmission command signal based on a drop in the engine speed signal when the work machine engages an increased load. The increased transmission command signal may increase a motor speed to cause an increase in track speed to compensate at least a portion of the reduced track speed from the engine speed droop.
