Freight vehicle with driver's cab
A freight vehicle has a frame defining a support surface for the goods to be transported, a plurality of rubberized wheel assemblies with suspensions, the height of which can be adjusted to shift the support surface between a lowered loading position and a raised transport position, and a driver's cab arranged beneath said support surface; the cab being coupled to, and overhanging, the frame by means of an articulated quadrilateral transmission unit and being shifted by pneumatic actuators configured to vertically move the whole cab in relation to the support surface between two extreme end positions, one approaching the support surface and one spaced apart from said support surface, and to arrange the cab in a cushioned intermediate position for the transport of the goods.
Adapter for an Isolation Mount Design
An isolation mount assembly comprises a resilient member defining a central aperture that defines a load axis and an annular depression about the load axis, and an adapter plate including an outer mechanical attachment structure that defines a first thickness and an inner attachment structure that is closer to the load axis than the outer attachment structure along a direction that is perpendicular to the load axis and that defines a second thickness. The inner attachment structure is disposed in the annular depression and the second thickness is at least twice the first thickness.
Vehicle body structure
A vehicle body structure has a vehicle frame structure, a cabin structure, a cargo area structure and an elastic bumper element. The cabin structure is installed to a forward portion of the vehicle frame structure and defines a passenger compartment. The cabin structure also has a rearward wall. The cargo area structure is installed to a rearward portion of the vehicle frame structure. The cargo area structure has a forward wall spaced apart from the rearward wall of the cabin structure. The elastic bumper element is installed to one of the rearward wall or the forward wall such that in response to flexing of the vehicle frame structure, the elastic bumper element can contact the other of the rearward wall or the forward wall thereby restricting direct contact between the rearward wall and the forward wall.

Device for decoupling vibrations between two systems and the working machine
A device together with an assigned working machine for decoupling vibrations between two systems (2, 4) in the form of spring-mass oscillators, of which one system (2) is assigned to a motion machine and the other system (4) is assigned to an operator operating the motion machine. The other system (4) at least partially performs motions about a transverse axis (Q) during driving motions of the motion machine and in doing so is subject to vertical motions in the direction of a vertical axis (z) at an absolute vertical speed (v.sub.z1,1) serving as an input variable of control devices and/or regulating devices. Those devices control a damping system (8) of the one system (2) and/or the other system (4) to compensate for the vibrations. The respective pitch motion of the other system (4) is detected by at least one rotation rate sensor. The respective measured value (ω.sub.1) of the sensor, preferably amplified by only a predeterminable factor (L.sub.1), results in the absolute vertical speed (v.sub.z1,1) as input variable.
Cabin assembly
A vehicle includes a frame, a series of tractive assemblies coupled to the frame, a cabin, and a mount. The mount includes a boss coupled to the cabin, a first bracket pivotably coupled to the boss, a second bracket coupled to the frame, and a first isolator and a second isolator extending between the first bracket and the second bracket and coupling the first bracket to the second bracket.
OUTRIGGER HAVING INCREASED STIFFNESS
An outrigger coupled to a cab frame. The outrigger including a base wall, a first side wall, an opposite second side wall, a reinforcement flange, and a reinforcement bracket. The first side wall and the opposite second side wall extend from the base wall. Each of the first side wall and the second side wall include an interior edge, an opposite exterior edge, and an inner surface. The reinforcement flange extends along the exterior edge of the first side wall, the second edge, and the exterior edge of the second side wall. The reinforcement bracket is coupled to the interior edge of the first side wall and the interior edge of the second side wall.
CABIN SUSPENSION SYSTEM
A cabin suspension system, adapted to be used in a forestry vehicle, comprising an operator cabin, adapted to control the forest vehicle, spring dampers, mountable between the operator cabin and a vehicle frame, magnetorheological dampers, mountable between the operator cabin and a vehicle frame, sensors, adapted to detect velocity and/or acceleration and/or movement of the cabin, of the vehicle frame and a dampening coefficient of the magnetorheological dampers, and a controlling unit.
Work vehicle with tuned mass dampers
A work vehicle includes a frame, an axle, a cab supported by the frame, a first tuned mass damper assembly, and a second tuned mass damper assembly. The frame includes a first longitudinal frame member and a second longitudinal frame member. The first longitudinal frame member has a first rear end, and the second longitudinal frame member has a second rear end. The second longitudinal frame member extends parallel to the first longitudinal frame member. The axle extends perpendicular to the first and second longitudinal frame members. The cab is disposed on a side of the first and second longitudinal frame members opposite the axle. The first tuned mass damper assembly is mounted on the first longitudinal frame member between the first rear end and the cab. The second tuned mass damper is mounted on the second longitudinal frame member between the second rear end and the cab.
AGRICULTURAL VEHICLE
An agricultural vehicle including a supporting structure and a coupling system connected to the supporting structure for the movable coupling of a vehicle cab to the supporting structure. The coupling system includes at least one spring-elastic bearing element. The vehicle cab releasably connects via at least one clamping element to the at least one spring-elastic bearing element. A clamping force direction of the clamping element runs transversely to a vehicle vertical axis in a transverse direction.
