    Abstract: An air spring (2) essentially includes two end elements (4, 6) and an electrically conductive rolling-lobe flexible member which is pressure-tightly arranged therebetween and is made of a flexible elastomeric electroconductive material (14). A reinforcement (16) formed by two cord fiber plies (16a, 16b), which are made of fibers (18), are vulcanized into the flexible member. In order to determine the height (h) of the spring, preferably, the two cord fabric plies (16a, 16b) are provided with a number of highly conductive fibers (18a) which are arranged at the beginning and the end of each ply in a parallel direction to each other, thereby forming two conductive strips (24a, 24b). The conductive strips (24a, 24b) are disposed oppositely to each other and are electrically connected at the end of the rolling-lobe flexible member (8) in such a way that a conductive loop (24) is formed and each strip is used as an element in a branch for an alternating-current measuring bridge (28). The filaments (20) of individual fibers (18) or only certain filaments (20a) of the fibers (18) can be electrically conductive. In addition to determining the height (h) of the spring in a motor vehicle, the inventive device can also be used for determining the air pressure in the flexible member of the air spring (2), the temperature (T) of the flexible member walls and other measurement quantities.

    Abstract: A wheeled vehicle includes a bottom chassis; a top chassis, which is coupled to the bottom chassis so that it is able to turn about a vertical axis; an operating arm coupled to the top chassis; an axle, which is coupled to the bottom chassis so that it can oscillate about a longitudinal axis of the vehicle; a plurality of wheels disposed on the axle; blocking means disposed between the bottom chassis and the axle for angularly blocking the axle about the longitudinal axis with respect to the bottom chassis; a circuit to activate the blocking means and inhibit oscillation of the axle about the longitudinal axis; and an angle sensor for supplying a signal indicative of the angular position of the operating arm about the vertical axis with respect to the bottom chassis.

    Abstract: A snowplow control system is provided that uses the distance between the vehicle frame and the ground or wheel axle as an input to a feedback loop useable to provide increased control over the pressure exerted by the plow blade. The control system allows the plow to operate in various modes of operation including a manual mode, a float mode, and a down pressure mode. The control system interfaces with the vehicle operator by way of a controller that is preferably operable from within the cabin of the vehicle.

    Abstract: A suspension control unit as well as a control valve for such unit are provided which are incorporated in a computerized suspension system which automatically and continuously monitors and control's a vehicle's ride performance. The suspension control unit is composed of an actuator and a fluid control unit. A valve is coupled to the actuator for controlling the fluid pressure within the actuator. The valve has an annular body having a side inlet passage and an outlet opening in communication with the reservoir. A poppet driven by a solenoid is slideably fitted within the body wherein the poppet can slide between a first position blocking flow to the outlet opening and a second position not blocking the flow to the outlet opening. The poppet has a shoulder that is exposed to the inlet. Fluid pressure to the inlet of the valve acts on the differential area of the poppet to produce an poppet retracting force which is opposed by the force of an electrically adjustable solenoid. When pressure reaches the solenoid setting, the poppet is retracted to the open position, permitting flow through the valve.
