Cab Mounting System And Method For Controlling The Cab Mounting System
A cab mount (25) for a vehicle (1) has a cab (5) separate from a vehicle frame (3). The cab is mounted so as to be levelable with respect to a vehicle standing surface by means of at least three adjustable actuators (7-13), and a levelness adjusted by the actuators is blockable at least when the vehicle is stationary. The cab mount has at least one stabilizer (27) for supporting roll movements of the cab during driving operation. The stabilizer has at least two switching steps with different spring rates, and the stabilizer has the higher of the at least two spring rates in stationary operation of the vehicle when the cab is leveled.
SHOCK ABSORBER AND CAB SUSPENSION FOR A VEHICLE
A shock absorber, comprising a distal attachment, comprising a flexible bush and an inner sleeve: coaxial with a distal axis transversal to a main axis crossing the proximal attachment and the distal attachment; configured for attaching the shock absorber to a distal mounting of the vehicle, by fixedly securing the inner sleeve to the distal mounting; and comprising a lateral end surface and a first anti-rotation element, protruding from and/or recessed from the lateral end surface, parallel to the distal axis, for imposing a single rotational position of the inner sleeve around the distal axis, relative to the distal mounting, when the inner sleeve is secured to the distal mounting.
