摘要:
A cab suspension system for a vehicle has a first front suspension mount, a second front suspension mount, and a rear suspension system. The first front suspension mount connects to a vehicle frame and to a cab. The second front suspension mount connects to the vehicle frame and to the cab. The rear suspension system has a first angled linking arm, a second angled linking arm, and a spring assembly. The first angled linking arm connects to the vehicle frame and to the cab. The second angled linking arm connects to the vehicle frame and to the cab. The spring assembly connects to the cab and to the vehicle frame. The first angled linking arm and the second angled linking arm are disposed to form a generally V-shape.
摘要:
A climate control system (26) for a cabin (22) of an electric vehicle (10) has at least one liquid-to-air heat exchanger (38) in heat exchange relation with air in the cabin and a set of control valves for selectively placing the climate control system in a cabin heating mode of operation in which hot liquid circulates through a hot liquid flow loop (42) and in a cabin cooling mode of operation in which cold liquid circulates through a cold liquid flow loop (44). An electric compressor motor (30M) is operated by electricity from a battery bank (16) for operating a refrigerant compressor (30C) to circulate refrigerant in a refrigerant loop that comprises a refrigerant-to-liquid hot side heat exchanger (32) that provides the hot liquid and a refrigerant-to-liquid cold side heat exchanger (36) that provides the cold liquid.

Attenuation of transmission of noise along a clutch linkage (122) for a manual transmission clutch is achieved by providing a segmented linkage. A clutch pedal side segment (42) has a substantially greater mass than does the clutch lever side segment (44). Bidirectional force between the clutch lever side segment and the clutch pedal side segment is through compressible bearings located inside a coupler (40) between the segments.
摘要:
A control system for a hybrid vehicle equipped with power takeoff equipment provides a multi-bus, network environment, integrating operation of a vehicle electric traction motor, power takeoff equipment including prospectively hydraulic motion control equipment and a vehicle thermal engine. The control system is readily programmable to allow reconfiguration depending upon the character of the equipment installed. Efficient utilization of the vehicle's thermal engine and enhanced system robustness is obtained.

It is emphasized that this abstract is provided to comply with the rules requiring an abstract that will allow a searcher or other reader to quickly ascertain the subject matter of the technical disclosure.
摘要:
An air induction and exhaust system for a diesel engine provides particulate filtering upstream from a turbocharger assembly (116) in the exhaust system. The air induction system provides for compression of the charge air, with an induction compressor (419) being part of a turbocharger system. The exhaust and induction impellers are located outside of a vehicle engine compartment to aid thermal management. The exhaust system provides a diesel particulate filter (32) which is located in the exhaust system in close proximity to an engine exhaust manifold and upstream from the exhaust impeller (417) of the turbocharger. With the diesel particulate filter (32) so located exhaust heat helps initiate carbon oxidation in the filter (32), and heat generated by oxidation in the filter (32) contributes to turbocharger (116) operation.
摘要:
The interior of a truck cab (29) has a cabinet (28) that houses a refrigerator (20). The refrigerator is inserted into the interior of the cabinet by sliding it through a frontal opening in the cabinet. A mounting system that includes several parts (36, 38, 40, 42) locates and secures the refrigerator in place.
