The present invention relates to a tracked amphibious vehicle having a vehicle frame and a pair of track assemblies attachable to a respective side of said vehicle frame, said vehicle frame being arranged to support a tilting vehicle cab and an engine configuration, said vehicle frame comprising a pair of separated longitudinal wall elements extending in the longitudinal direction of the tracked vehicle and a bottom element connecting said pair of longitudinal wall elements so as to form a space for supporting and housing said engine configuration, wherein said vehicle frame comprises an extension frame and has a lateral extension so that no portion of the vehicle frame extends laterally passed a respective track of said pair of track assemblies so as to allow easy access to said space.

A truck (10) is provided including an engine (12), a cabin, and a conditioned spaced (14) defined by a plurality of adjacent wall members including a front wall member (16). A transport refrigeration unit is configured to control a temperature within the conditioned space include an evaporator unit (20) and a condenser unit (22). The evaporator unit (20) is mounted within the conditioned space (14). The condenser unit (22) is operably coupled to the evaporator unit (20) and is mounted to an exterior surface (24) of the front wall member (16). The condenser unit (22) is configured to move slidably between an operating position and a clearance position.

A truck comprising a chassis, further comprising a front bumper, a cabin comprising a front lid, and a lock. The front lid is operable between an open position and a closed position, and the lock is operable between an unlocking configuration of the front lid and a locking configuration in which the front lid is locked in the closed position. The cabin is pivotally mounted on the chassis and is tiltable between a horizontal position and an inclined position. The truck comprises a latching mechanism, operable between an unlocking configuration of the cabin and a locking configuration in which the cabin is locked in the horizontal position, and an opening mechanism, mechanically connecting the latching mechanism to the lock and automatically operating the lock from its locking configuration to its unlocking configuration when the latching mechanism is operated from its locking configuration to its unlocking configuration.

A cab mounting assembly connecting a cab and a frame is configured so that grease is supplied to contact portions to prevent wear and noise. The cab mounting assembly hinge-connects a frame of a vehicle and a cab in which an occupant sits. A collar is disposed outside a fixing bolt hinge-connecting the frame and the cab. A hinge cushion is fitted around the collar to buffer vibration transmitted to the cab. At least one surface of an internal surface of the hinge cushion and an external surface of the collar is provided with a groove through which oil supplied into the hinge cushion flows to an end portion of the hinge cushion.

A tilting system for a suspended cab of a work vehicle includes a hydraulic cylinder coupled to a chassis of the work vehicle at a first end and the suspended cab at a second end. Further, the hydraulic cylinder is configured to extend to drive the suspended cab to rotate from a lowered position to a raised position. In addition, the hydraulic cylinder is configured to be substantially horizontal while the suspended cab is in the lowered position.

A system for automatic tilting of an operator cabin of a work machine includes a first sensor that generates a first signal indicative of a first pitch angle of a frame structure relative to a non-inclined surface. The system also includes a tilting mechanism to tilt the operator cabin relative to the frame structure. The system further includes a controller that receives the first signal indicative of the first pitch angle. The controller determines a second pitch angle based on the first pitch angle. The controller controls first and second actuators to tilt the operator cabin by the second pitch angle relative to the non-inclined surface. The second pitch angle is opposite in direction to the first pitch angle. Further, based on a tilting of the operator cabin, a plane defined by the operator cabin is substantially parallel to the non-inclined surface.
