The invention can be applied to its specific vehicle types. Control unit (16) adjusts the shaft rotation speed of electric motor 1(13) and electric motor 2(15) in accordance with driving control data (17). While electric motor 1(13) is responsible for forward-backward motion of the vehicle, electric motor 2(15) provides right-left cornering to the vehicle. This cornering is made possible with the change in rotational speed between side wheels (2,3). Directional control via the side wheels (2,3) will not be sufficient for vehicle control at high speeds. For this purpose, a hydraulic system functioning dependent to the side wheels (2,3) is formed. The pulling force generated between the hydraulic cylinder (20) and the end of the hydraulic piston rod (20a) is used to control the direction of the front wheel (1) and/or rear wheel (4) of the vehicle.

The present invention is an electric vehicle wherein the vehicle is powered by an internal generator rather than the traditional method of plugging in to charge the electric battery. The internal generator is made up of an alternator and a regulator which control the flow of electricity to the battery of the car. The battery of the car will only need to be charged once at the beginning of use or first time use of the vehicle and then will obtain power from the internal generator.

An autonomous robotic vehicle is capable of detecting, identifying, and locating the source of gas leaks such as methane. Because of the number of operating components within the vehicle, it may also be considered a robotic system. The robotic vehicle can be remotely operated or can move autonomously within a jobsite. The vehicle selectively deploys a source detection device that precisely locates the source of a leak. The vehicle relays data to stakeholders and remains powered that enables operation of the vehicle over an extended period. Monitoring and control of the vehicle is enabled through a software interface viewable to a user on a mobile communications device or personal computer.

An all-terrain vehicle has an air ventilation system positioned adjacent a rearmost point of the front ground engaging members and directing air rearwardly through an engine compartment, wherein the air ventilation system includes at least one air scoop adjacent a front of the vehicle for directing the air. In addition, an ATV is disclosed having a rear rack having an integral storage bin, where the storage bin is one piece with the rear rack. The storage bin is sealed.

An axle assembly having an input shaft, an output shaft, and an interaxle differential unit. The interaxle differential unit includes first and second side gears, a case, and a pinion gear that is rotatably disposed on a pinion pin. The case extends from the input shaft. The pinion pin extends from the case and is spaced apart from the input shaft.

A diff-lock operation shaft 50 is supported by a case 11 in such a manner as to be rotatable around an axis P1 of the diff-lock operation shaft 50 and operates a diff-lock section 48 to a lock position A2 by being rotated, and a first coil spring 51 is wound around the outer surface of the diff-lock operation shaft 50 concentrically with the diff-lock operation shaft 50, and is linked at one end portion 51b to the diff-lock operation shaft 50 and at another end portion 51a to linking members 55 and 56. The first coil spring 51 is twisted around the axis P1 via the linking members 55 and 56 by the manual operation tool 58 being operated, and the diff-lock operation shaft 50 is rotated via the first coil spring 51.

A vehicle includes an engine, a front frame, a rear frame, an intermediate frame, a front propeller shaft, a rear propeller shaft, and a wet oiling brake. A pair of right and left front lower arms are swingably mounted to the front frame. A pair of right and left rear lower arms are swingably mounted to the rear frame. The intermediate frame is located between the front frame and the rear frame. The front propeller shaft extends forward from the engine and the rear propeller shaft extends rearward from the engine. The wet oiling brake is located within a region defined by the intermediate frame in the front-rear direction and brakes a rotation of the front propeller shaft.
