Lateral Trailer Suspension Support Device
The Lateral Trailer Suspension Support Device system is a suspension support that locks the axles of a trailer into the frame of the trailer, similar to a track bar on a truck. It is a lateral trailer suspension support device for reducing lateral loading of a trailer body having a wheeled axle comprising a frame rail connectively attached to said trailer body, a rigid member having a frame connection end having a first flexible joint connectively attached to said frame rail and an axle connection end having a second flexible joint connectively attached to said wheeled axle. It prevents and decreases lateral loading on all types of trailers. It can be used on single, tandem, and triple axle trailers.
Axle assembly for low floor vehicle
An axle assembly for a low floor vehicle is described herein. The axle assembly includes an axle housing and a drive unit for driving a wheel assembly. The axle housing including a first gearbox, a second gearbox and a cradle assembly coupling the first gear box to the second gear box. The axle assembly includes first and second hub assemblies that form a first axis of rotation. The first gearbox includes an electric motor that is coupled to a transmission used to rotate an output shaft. The first gearbox also includes a differential mounted for rotation with the transmission and a first drop box mounted for rotation with the differential. The axle assembly also includes a portal axle mounted for rotation with the first drop box and extends from the first gearbox to the second gearbox wherein the portal axle forms a second axis of rotation that is offset from the first axis of rotation of the hub assemblies. The second gearbox includes a second drop box mounted for rotation with the portal axle and is adapted to drive the second hub assembly.

Work vehicle and front grill of work vehicle
A work vehicle includes: a wheel support member configured to support a pair of left and right traveling wheels; a link mechanism configured to support the wheel support member such that the wheel support member can be raised and lowered, the link mechanism being provided spanning between a vehicle body and the wheel support member; a suspension mechanism configured to elastically support the wheel support member, the suspension mechanism being provided spanning between a suspension support portion, which is formed on the vehicle body, and the wheel support member; and a lateral link configured to restrict leftward and rightward movement of the wheel support member, the lateral link being joined to a vehicle body-side support portion, which is formed on the vehicle body, and to a wheel-side support portion, which is formed on the wheel support member, wherein the link mechanism has: an upper link with an front end portion supported so as to be able to pivot up and down around an upper pivot axis by a link support portion, which is formed on the vehicle body, and with a rear end portion joined so as to be able to relatively pivot around an upper joint axis by the wheel support member; and a lower link with a front end portion supported so as to be able to pivot up and down around a lower pivot axis by the link support portion, and with a rear end portion joined to the wheel support member so as to be able to relatively pivot around a lower joint axis, a distance between the upper pivot axis and the upper joint axis is set shorter than a distance between the lower pivot axis and the lower joint axis, a gap width between the upper joint axis and the lower joint axis is set larger than a gap width between the upper pivot axis and the lower pivot axis, and when the vehicle body is in an unloaded state, the lower joint axis is located lower than the lower pivot axis.
Coil Replacement Load Leveling System with Safe Height Feature.
A primary air suspension system with the reliability of a secondary air suspension system by guaranteeing a minimum pressure in the air spring through a simple mechanical residual pressure valve. The residual pressure valve is set to the air spring pressure required to hold the rear of the unloaded pickup truck at the designed ride height if any of the components (compressor, tank, valves, air lines, Schrader valve, or electronic controller) failure.
Adjustable ride height, vehicle, system and kit
Disclosed herein is an adjustable suspension mount system that includes a first mount link pivotally attached to a mount feature and extending to a device used to support a load on a first wheel, the first mount link pivotally attached to the device. The mount feature is attached to or integrated into the frame of the vehicle. The system further includes a second mount link pivotally attached to at least one of the mount feature and a second mount feature, the second mount link extending to the first mount link, the second mount link pivotally attached to the first mount link. Further disclosed is a vehicle including the system, and a kit including the components to provide the system for a vehicle.
Suspension rear axle comprising two electric motors
An electric vehicle comprising a portal axle architecture. The electric vehicle having a frame. An axle assembly including a De Dion tube. A first wheel hub and a second wheel hub rotatably coupled with the De Dion tube. A suspension system coupled with the vehicle frame, the suspension system having at least one pair of trailing arms pivotally coupled with the vehicle frame and at least one pair of air springs. A first electric drive assembly in driving engagement with the first wheel hub, and a second electric drive assembly in driving engagement with the second wheel hub.
Portal Axle Arrangement and Motor Vehicle
A portal axle arrangement 1 for a motor vehicle includes at least one portal housing 2 and at least one suspension arm 5, 6. The at least one portal housing 2 includes a receiving section 7 for a portal gear and at least one connecting section 8, 9 for the at least one suspension arm 5, 6, in which the at least one connecting section 8, 9 is designed as a support section.
