Disclosed is an autonomous driving vehicle including a front wheel support connected to a front wheel as one body and supporting the front wheel, and a knuckle arm angle adjustment assembly having one side to which a knuckle arm is connected, the knuckle arm moving with the front wheel during steering the front wheel, and knuckle arm angle adjustment assembly being coupled to one side of the front wheel support to be capable of angle adjustment for setting an inclination angle of the knuckle arm.

An independent corner module includes an axle fastened to and positioned on a wheel, a steering frame fastened to the axle and rotated integrally with the axle to apply a steering angle to the wheel, a vehicle body guide rail positioned on a vehicle body and fastened to a rotation center axis of the steering frame, a steering driving portion positioned between the steering frame and the vehicle body guide rail to apply a driving force, and a leaf spring unit positioned between the axle and the steering frame, in which the steering driving portion is rotated along the vehicle body guide rail in response to the driving force of the steering driving portion, and at a same time, the steering frame is configured to be rated around the steering driving portion.

A trailer system for hauling material. The trailer system including a frame and a container attached to the frame. A lid is operatively associated with a first aperture and adapted to at least move between an open position and a closed position. When in the closed position the lid seals the first aperture such that the seal is watertight. A gate is operatively associated with a second aperture and adapted to at least move between an open position and a closed position. When in the closed position the gate seals the second aperture such that the seal is watertight. A pusher plate assembly is arranged with the container for pushing material contained in the container in a direction towards the second aperture.

A motor vehicle chassis is provided having a base structure that can be hydraulically adjusted in level between a raised and a lowered position. A hydraulic adjuster is assigned to one of the two foot points of the corresponding suspension spring in each of the four wheel suspensions. At least two of the adjusters can be pressurized in parallel by a common hydraulic aggregate comprising a tank and a motor-pump unit and activated by a control unit. The at least two hydraulic adjusters that can be pressurized by the common hydraulic aggregate communicate hydraulically with the accumulator chamber of a spring-piston accumulator, which has at least one piston-position transmitter linked by signal transmission to the control unit.

A relative guide device (1) for a steering arrangement (31) is arranged on the wheel-carrier side for the spatial guidance and maintenance of the relative spatial orientation of the steering arrangement (31) with respect to a vehicle body (40). At least one telescopic movement apparatus (2) for movably connecting the steering arrangement (31) is arranged on the wheel-carrier side to the vehicle body (40). A steering force transmission device (30) transmits a steering force to a wheel (R) of a vehicle having a relative guide device (1), and to a wheel suspension (50) for a vehicle.

Techniques for using ball joint sensor data to determine conditions relevant to a vehicle are described in this disclosure. For example, in one example, the ball joint sensor data may be used to determine estimated steering data. The estimated steering data may be directly used to navigate through an environment, such as by the vehicle relying on the estimated steering data when planning, tracking, or executing a driving maneuver. Also, the estimated steering data may be used to verify the reliability of other steering sensor data used to navigate through the environment.

An independent suspension system for a vehicle includes: a steering unit configured to be controlled to adjust the steering angle of a wheel, a shock absorber engaged with the wheel and configured to absorb impacts applied to the wheel and including a first shock absorber and a second shock absorber, each of which arranged in a forward-rearward direction on opposite side surfaces of the wheel, and a link unit disposed between the shock absorber and the steering unit in order to vary the distance between the wheel and the steering unit. The link unit includes a first upper arm disposed between the first shock absorber and the steering unit, a second upper arm disposed between the second shock absorber and the steering unit, and at least one ground clearance adjustment unit engaged with the first and second upper arms in order to vary the distance between the first and second upper arms.

Systems, devices, and methods for analyzing the alignment of at least one wheel of a vehicle using a non-contact locating system. Systems can include a tie rod with a three-dimensional target that is used by a non-contact measuring instrument to determine the position of the target in three dimensional space. The target may be pyramidal in shape. The position of the target may be indicative of a desired wheel alignment.

A sport-wheeled chassis is provided for connecting to a mobility device, which comprises a suspension set up under the bottom of the mobility device, a steering pivotally connected to the suspension, a controller connected to the suspension and steering electrically, tires which are pivotally connected to the steering and disposed under the steering, and a steering shaft of the steering which coincides axially with the steering shaft of the tire so that the controller can operate the turning direction of the tire and the height of the suspension through the suspension and the steering. The chassis is not only with a simple structure, but also with a suspension to control the height of the chassis off the ground, so that the chassis can maintain stability in any rugged environment, and, with its attached wheels, the chassis can move to desired places fast and accurately.

The four wheel vehicle uses an electric motor (142) for driving the vehicle and a battery unit (160) for supplying electric power to the electric motor. The lower chassis (5) of the vehicle includes a pair of front side frames (10) extending linearly in a fore and aft direction with an upward slant and a progressively increasing lateral mutual spacing from a front part thereof to a rear part thereof, a pair of rear side frames (12) connected to rear ends of the respective front side frames, and extending linearly in a fore and aft direction with an upward slant from a front part thereof to a rear part thereof in continuation of the corresponding front side frames in a mutually parallel relationship, and a plurality of cross members (14, 16, 18, 20, 22) connecting the side frames to each other.
