A tractor (1) has a mudguard device (5) including a cover element (50) suitable to surround at least along an arc of circumference the respective wheel assembly (100) and suitable to act as a separation element along a transverse axis (Y-Y) between the respective wheel assembly (100) and an operating area (200) containing components of the tractor (1). A support system (51) is suitable to attach the cover element (50) to the respective axle (10). The cover element (50) can be guided in movement from a covering position in which the cover element covers the respective wheel assembly (100) to an open position in which the operating area (200) is accessible, and vice versa.

A track work vehicle includes a track system. The track system includes a drive wheel supported by an axle housing that drives a continuous ground-engaging track, a saddle assembly that guides the track about the drive wheel and an undercarriage frame that supports one or more idler wheels that guide the track along a ground surface. The track work vehicle includes a fender assembly that includes at least one fender coupled to the track system to overlap a portion of the track.

A wheel well/fender guard comprising a flat, curved, narrow rectangular panel secured in parallel spaced relationship to the outer edge of a vehicle wheel well, to protect the outer edge. The guard has flat upper and lower surfaces that are generally perpendicular to the plane of the vehicle body panel around the wheel well, and is spaced from the wheel well outer edge by a plurality of spacers secured at intervals along the upper surface of the guard. The spacers are substantially narrower than the guard, which is itself substantially narrower than the width of the wheel well as a whole.

A mud flap for a wheeled vehicle includes an upper mounting portion and an extended protection portion. The extended protection portion includes at least two areas with slotted air flow openings. An upper slot area includes rows of elongated slots with the slots arranged in columns in each row. A lower slot area includes rows of elongated slots with the slots arranged in columns in each row. The slots in the upper slot area have heights that are greater than the heights of slots in the lower slot area. In some embodiments, a middle slot area is positioned between the upper slot area and the lower slot area. The slots in the middle slot area have different heights in different rows. In some embodiments, at least a portion of the slots in the upper slot area is replaced with diagonal mounting features.

A mud flap assembly is suitable for use with a vehicle. The mud flap assembly includes a rod assembly that is configured to be mounted to the vehicle. The rod assembly has an elongate housing and a stop extending from the housing. The mud flap assembly further includes a mud flap. A keyway extends through a portion of the mud flap. A first part of the keyway is sized and configured to rotatably engage the elongate housing. A second part of the keyway engages the stop to limit rotation of the mud flap between a first position and a second position. The mud flap also includes biasing element that biases the mud flap toward the first position when the mud flap is in the second position.

Embodiments disclosed herein include a safety device with a body having a first end, a second opposite end, and a plurality of stacked crash pad layers. A stiffness of the body is arranged to increase in a direction from the first end of the body towards the second end of the body. In some embodiments, the stiffness of the body increases in a fore-aft direction when the safe device is installed in art automobile.
