An adjustable anti-roll bar arrangement for a vehicle, comprising a bracket configured to be mounted in a fixed relationship to a chassis or a an axle of the vehicle, a linear actuator connected to the bracket, a guided element, the linear actuator being configured to drive the guided element along a first geometrical axis, a supporting shaft mounted to the bracket and defining a second geometrical axis which has a different extension compared to the first geometrical axis, an anti-roll bar, and a stabilizer stay having a first end connected to the anti-roll bar, and a second end movably connected to and supported by the supporting shaft, the second end being also connected to the guided element such that when the linear actuator drives the guided element along the first geometrical axis, the second end follows the motion along the second geometrical axis. The invention also relates to a vehicle comprising such an arrangement.

A vehicle suspension includes at least one anchor bar, at least one axle lift spring, an auxiliary drop-type axle which may be selectively lifted or lowered and a single, integrated support attaching the at least one axle lift spring and the at least one anchor bar to the auxiliary drop-type axle, wherein the single, integrated support provides the only attachment of the at least one axle lift spring and the at least one anchor bar to the auxiliary drop-type axle, and wherein the support includes an open area configured to allow the passage of a cardan.

A suspension assembly for a commercial vehicle includes a first linkage, an air spring, a carriage, and a second linkage. The first linkage is pivotally coupled at a first end with a structural member of a frame. The structural member extends downwards from the frame. The air spring is coupled with the frame and a second end of the first linkage. The air spring drives the first linkage to pivot about the first end relative to the structural member. The carriage is pivotally coupled with the first linkage at a position between the first end and the second end of the first linkage. The second linkage is pivotally coupled at a first end with the structural member, and pivotally coupled with the carriage at a second end. The structural member, the first linkage, the second linkage, and the carriage define a four-bar linkage.

In a riding mower having a frame, a mower deck supported beneath the frame, a chair on said frame and a source of motive power also supported on said frame and including two hydraulic transaxles depending beneath the frame to each selectively rotate a drive wheel. The frame is supported on forward and rear wheel assemblies with a supporting wheel. The transaxles are supported beneath the frame and pivotally secured thereto by a flange captivating vibration pillows and proximate the driven wheel and an inner pivot rod secured to the frame by apertures in downwardly depending tabs.

An electronic control unit containing a microcomputer performs: calculating operation variables of left and right air springs of air suspensions based on a steering angle and a roll angle of a vehicle; and controlling air pressures of the left and right air springs in accordance with the calculated operation variables.

A rear axle assembly designed to fit within a predefined rear axle envelope of a transportation vehicle. The rear axle assembly comprising first and second double wheel hubs each supporting a pair of tires, a rear axle offset with respect to a central axis of the rear axle assembly, a rear axle input for receiving a drive input, first and second portal housings which facilitate respectively connecting the rear axle with the first and the second double wheel hubs, a four-point control arm for connecting the rear axle to a chassis, first and second spring carriers each carrying smaller and larger diameter air bellows, first and second longitudinal arms which interconnected the rear axle to the chassis, and first and second shock absorbers each located generally at or adjacent to the central axis and radially between the first double wheel hub and the first spring carrier.

A suspension assembly for a commercial vehicle includes a first linkage, an air spring, a carriage, and a second linkage. The first linkage is pivotally coupled at a first end with a structural member of a frame. The structural member extends downwards from the frame. The air spring is coupled with the frame and a second end of the first linkage. The air spring drives the first linkage to pivot about the first end relative to the structural member. The carriage is pivotally coupled with the first linkage at a position between the first end and the second end of the first linkage. The second linkage is pivotally coupled at a first end with the structural member, and pivotally coupled with the carriage at a second end. The structural member, the first linkage, the second linkage, and the carriage define a four-bar linkage.

The invention also relates to a vehicle comprising such an arrangement.

A drive system of an electric vehicle is disclosed. The vehicle has an arrangement optimized for characteristics of a hydrogen electric truck so as to ensure an available space inside vehicle body frames, thereby allowing a battery, high-voltage electric parts, a hydrogen tank, and the like to be arranged inside the vehicle body frames and increasing space utilization in the vehicle. The drive system includes a motor configured to drive the vehicle, a reducer or a transmission connected to an output side of the motor so as to change a rotational speed of the motor, and a rear axle configured to transmit rotating power output from the reducer or the transmission to vehicle wheels. The motor and the reducer or the transmission together with the rear axle are mounted on a suspension.

A support beam includes a first supporting portion, a second supporting portion, and an arm connecting the first supporting portion to the second supporting portion. The arm includes a web and a flange. The flange includes a first end, a second end, and a center portion. The center portion of the flange is connected to an end of the web. The flange includes bent portions at which the center line of the thickness of the flange is bent outward in the extending direction of the web in the region between the first end and the second end in a transverse cross section of the arm.
