An example detection system includes a sensor, a first module, and a second module. The sensor is positioned at at least one of a center of gravity of a vehicle and a wheel of the vehicle. The sensor is configured to measure (a) a first measurement of a parameter of the vehicle prior to the wheel contacting the obstacle and (b) a second measurement of the parameter of the vehicle while the vehicle is contacting the obstacle. The first module is configured to determine whether a change is present in the vehicle based on the first and second measurements, calculate a dimension of the obstacle, and store a global positioning system (GPS) location of the obstacle. The second module configured to actuate an actuator of the vehicle when the vehicle approaches the GPS location of the obstacle prior to the vehicle reaching the GPS location of the obstacle.

A vehicle height adjustment apparatus includes a spring, an adjustor, a storage chamber, a pump, and a flow path switching unit. The adjustor includes an accommodation chamber which accommodates liquid, and adjusts the length of the spring according to the amount of liquid in the accommodation chamber. The pump includes a cylinder. The flow path switching unit includes a first communication path through which the inside of the cylinder communicates with the storage chamber, a second communication path through which the inside of the cylinder communicates with the accommodation chamber, and a third communication path through which the accommodation chamber communicates with the storage chamber. The flow path switching unit switches the flow path of the liquid according to an amount of electric current supplied to the flow path switching unit.

To offer a suspension apparatus for a vehicle with high utility, a suspension apparatus having a damping-force generating device which includes a body-side unit attached so as to project upward from a mount portion formed at a part of the vehicle is provided with a projecting-portion-displacement permitting mechanism for permitting a displacement of at least a projecting portion such that an amount of projection of the projecting portion decreases. The projecting-portion-displacement permitting mechanism is configured as follows, for instance. In a structure in which a downward movement of the body-side unit is prohibited by a pin of a solenoid, the solenoid is energized and the pin is withdrawn, thereby releasing the prohibition of the movement of the body-side unit. In consequence, the body side-unit is permitted to move downward. The mechanism increases a distance between an upper end of the damping-force generating device and a hood disposed above the mount portion, so that an impact applied to the hood from above can be effectively mitigated utilizing a space between the upper end of the damping-force generating device and the hood in which the distance therebetween is increased.

The present invention is particularly useful for lowering the front end of an automobile. The devices, methods, and systems of the present invention can find use in any variety of automobiles, such as trucks, sport utility vehicles (SUVs), passenger cars, and the like. The invention can be employed regardless of the type of suspension system in the automobile, and allows the vehicle to be lowered while retaining a maximum amount of travel. This is accomplished with a drop spindle having certain features such as a tap opening and a countersunk opening on the underside of the lower ball joint boss.

An apparatus and method for controlling variation in the pitch of an agricultural vehicle, where the apparatus includes a controller that controls a position of an implement attached to the agricultural vehicle, and a first valve that is coupled to, and receives a first control signal from, the controller. The apparatus further includes a suspension cylinder having a first chamber that is hydraulically coupled to the first valve. The first control signal provided from the controller is functionally related to a first additional control signal provided by the controller, and the first additional control signal is used to determine the position of the implement.

A vehicle height adjustment apparatus according to one embodiment include a spring, a spring-length changing unit, a first valve, a control valve and a second valve. The spring-length changing unit changes a length of the spring in accordance with an amount of oil in a jack chamber that accommodates the oil. The first valve opens and closes a first communication path in which the oil supplied from a pump is oriented toward a reservoir chamber that stores the oil. The control valve opens and closes a discharge flow path oriented toward the reservoir chamber from a chamber that accommodates the oil to close the first valve. The second valve opens and closes a second communication path in which the oil supplied from the pump is oriented toward the jack chamber when the first valve is closed.

The hydraulic suspension system comprises a suspension mechanism for a traveling vehicle body, a suspension reference position variation mechanism for varying a reference position of a suspension stroke of the suspension mechanism, and a stopped state detector for detecting a state in which operation of the suspension mechanism has stopped. The control management unit controls the suspension reference position variation mechanism so that when operation of the suspension mechanism is detected by the stopped state detector to be in a stopped state, the operation of the suspension mechanism moves toward a target range, in preference to control based on a suspension stroke position obtained from a suspension stroke position sensor.

The hydraulic suspension system comprises a suspension mechanism (100) for a traveling vehicle body, a suspension reference position variation mechanism (18) for varying a reference position of a suspension stroke of the suspension mechanism, and a stopped state detector (58) for detecting a state in which operation of the suspension mechanism (100) has stopped. The control management unit (60) controls the suspension reference position variation mechanism (18) so that when operation of the suspension mechanism (100) is detected by the stopped state detector (58) to be in a stopped state, the operation of the suspension mechanism (100) moves toward a target range, in preference to control based on a suspension stroke position obtained from a suspension stroke position sensor (37).

A motorcycle with a disk brake device and an anti-dip device for improving the external appearance of the front forks and for simplifying the fixing of the hoses. A single hose includes a hydraulic passage k extending from a secondary master cylinder and one end of the hose is connected to one opening of a three-way opening coupling fixed to the front forks. One end of a single hose is supported by the secondary master cylinder and the other end is supported by the three-way opening coupling. Thus the hose clamps may be omitted, the number of components is conspicuously reduced and the arrangement is simplified. In comparison to extending two hoses from the secondary master cylinder, only a single hose is extended according to the present invention. Thus, the handling of the hoses is simplified and the outer appearance near the front forks is improved.
