A lift device includes a base, an arm, a tractive element, and a steering actuator. The arm has a base end coupled to the base and a tractive element end. The arm includes a steering actuator interface positioned along an exterior surface of the arm. The tractive element is coupled to the tractive element end. The steering actuator has a first end coupled to the steering actuator interface and an opposing second end coupled to the tractive element. The arm includes a plate extending from the exterior surface of the arm at an upward angle and past the steering actuator.

A trailer for towing by a power vehicle is provided and generally includes a frame and a tandem wheel assembly. The frame forms an undercarriage chassis which the tandem wheel assembly is positioned there under. The undercarriage chassis includes a steerable rear wheel assembly, a steerable front wheel assembly, and an extension assembly moving the front wheel assembly between trailing position and a self-propelled position where the rear wheel assembly and the front wheel assembly are positioned to equally support the undercarriage chassis.

A crane for lifting and transporting loads includes a base frame for transferring the loads of the crane onto a support surface by a plurality of wheels. The wheels are capable of rotating relative to the base frame so as to change the camber angle of the wheels.

An electrified vehicle, comprising a chassis having a frame, a first tractive element, and a first suspension system coupled with the first tractive element and the chassis. The first suspension system may comprise a first knuckle coupled with the first tractive element, and a first strut-damper coupled with the first knuckle and the chassis, the first strut-damper extending between the chassis and the first knuckle. The first suspension system may also include a first control arm coupled with the first knuckle and the frame member, and a torsion bar coupled with the chassis at a first end of the torsion bar. The torsion bar may extend in a direction substantially parallel with the frame member, where the torsion bar may be configured to support a portion of a mass of the electrified vehicle in response to displacement of the first tractive element relative to the chassis.

A machine includes a chassis having a first end and an opposing second end, an axle pivotally coupled to the first end of the chassis, a first actuator coupled to the first end of the chassis, and a second actuator coupled to the first end of the chassis. The chassis defines a longitudinal center axis. The axle is configured to rotate about the longitudinal center axis. The first actuator is positioned on a first lateral side of the longitudinal center axis. The first actuator is extendable to selectively engage a first contact point on the axle. The second actuator is positioned on an opposing second lateral side of the longitudinal center axis. The second actuator is extendable to selectively engage a second contact point on the axle.

A chassis for a lift device includes a base, an arm coupled to the base and configured to support a tractive element, and a plate extending from the arm at an upward angle. The arm includes a steering actuator interface configured to support an end of a steering actuator for the tractive element. The plate is configured to extend past the steering actuator.

A fluid suspension system for a land vehicle is provided with an actuator connected to a chassis and an axle of a land vehicle spaced apart from a pivotal connection of the axle. A fluid pressure circuit is in cooperation with the at least one actuator. A controller is in operable communication with the fluid pressure circuit and is programmed to receive input indicative of a travel speed of the land vehicle. The fluid pressure circuit is adjusted to limit fluid flow rate or reduce fluid pressure at a low speed travel range to permit the axle to pivot in response to variations in an underlying support surface. The fluid pressure circuit is adjusted at a higher speed travel range for selective actuation of the at least one actuator or for a higher fluid pressure actuation of the at least one actuator, in response to variations in the underlying surface.

A suspension system for a land vehicle is provided with at least one actuator connected to a chassis and an axle of a land vehicle spaced apart from a pivotal connection of the axle. A suspension circuit is in cooperation with the at least one actuator. A controller is in operable communication with the suspension circuit and is programmed to receive input indicative of a travel speed of the land vehicle. The suspension circuit is closed at a low speed travel range to permit the axle to pivot in response to variations in an underlying support surface. The suspension circuit is opened to permit selective actuation of the at least one actuator at a higher speed travel range in response to variations in the underlying support surface.

A machine includes a chassis, a turntable coupled to the chassis, a boom coupled to the turntable, an axle, a first actuator, and a second actuator. The chassis has a first end and an opposing second end, and defines a longitudinal center axis. The turntable is selectively rotatable about a rotation axis. The axle is pivotally coupled to the first end of the chassis and configured to pivot about the longitudinal center axis. The first actuator is coupled to the first end of the chassis and positioned on a first side of the longitudinal center axis. The first actuator is extendable to selectively engage a first contact point on the axle. The second actuator is coupled to the first end of the chassis and positioned on an opposing second side of the longitudinal center axis. The second actuator is extendable to selectively engage a second contact point on the axle.

A utility vehicle, in particular a firefighting vehicle, comprising an extendable aerial apparatus like a turnable ladder and/or an aerial rescue platform, a jacking system with lateral ground supports for jacking the vehicle body, and a stabilization mechanism for preventing tilting of the vehicle body in its jacked state. The stabilization mechanism includes a hydraulically operable rear axle blocking device for blocking the rear axle suspension of the vehicle. The stabilization mechanism further includes at least one hydraulically lockable shock absorber integrated into the front axle suspension of the vehicle. The rear axle blocking device and the hydraulically lockable shock absorber are controlled by a common hydraulic control to lock the hydraulically lockable shock absorber at the same time or with a delay after activating the rear axle blocking device.
