Abstract: According to one aspect, a method includes applying a first force to a piston using an actuator that includes a displacement indication arrangement. The piston is part of a hydraulic braking system included in a vehicle. The hydraulic braking system includes fluid, wherein when the first force is applied to the piston, the piston moves. The method further includes determining when a pressure of the fluid reaches a target pressure, obtaining at least a first measurement of a displacement of the piston when the pressure of the fluid reaches the target pressure using the displacement indication arrangement, and determining when the at least first measurement of the displacement of the piston indicates an anomaly in the hydraulic braking system. When it is determined that the at least first measurement of the displacement of the piston indicates the anomaly, the anomaly in the hydraulic braking system is identified.

Abstract: A coil spring is interposed between a vehicle body and a suspension member which is elastically and swingably supported by the vehicle body and supports a wheel. The suspension member and a vehicle part attached to the vehicle body are connected by a fastening member. The orientation of the suspension member with respect to the vehicle body is forcibly changed so as to increase the distance between the vehicle body and the suspension member at a coil spring interposition portion. An excessive change in the orientation of the suspension member is restricted by the fastening member, and a coil spring is inserted between the vehicle body and the suspension member.

Abstract: A unitary (one-piece) construction of an electric vehicle chassis is provided having at least one s-bend aft of the front axle to allow battery packs to mount on isolators inside of the frame rails. The overall width of the frame (at the widest) is 4-6″ wider as compared to traditional (non-ev) vehicles. This increased width is provided for to accommodate the battery packs required for operation of the electric vehicle. The s-bend allows for front wheel steering angles greater than if rails were straight. In some embodiments, a second s-bend directs the frame again outwards to accommodate additional components and to increase strength of the overall frame. The present wide and s-bend configuration allows for mounting of rear springs underneath of the frame rails for extra support and more efficient and improved packaging. The cross member further allows for front spring mounting to the frame.

Abstract: A movable object includes: a steering part including a wheel provided to rotate along a ground, a wheel rod connected to the wheel and extending in a direction away from the wheel, and a steering motor connected to the wheel rod to rotate the wheel rod and steer the wheel; and a cover part disposed on top of the steering part, and including a receiving member in which a portion of the steering part is received. When the steering motor rotates the wheel rod in one direction, the steering part is engaged with the receiving member so that the steering part and the cover part may be joined, and when the steering motor rotates the wheel rod in an opposite direction, the steering part is separated from the receiving member so that the steering part and the cover part may be disengaged.

Abstract: Vehicle corner modules (VCMs) connectable to a VCM-connection interface of a reference-frame of a vehicle platform, for regulating motion of a vehicle. When a wheel is mounted on a wheel-hub assembly of the VCM, a vehicle-connection interface of the VCM is disposed within a cylindrical footprint of the wheel. At least one of the at least one subsystem of the VCM is accommodated between the wheel-hub assembly and the vehicle-connection interface. Vehicle platforms are connectable to the VCMs. The connection of the vehicle platform to the VCM may include connection of subsystems of the VCM to electronic or flow subsystems mounted on the vehicle platform by connection of two portions of a multi-interface connection-element.

Abstract: A bearing arrangement for a damper bearing of a shock absorber in a wheelhouse of a vehicle. A damper receptacle is formed in a wheelhouse sheet metal part delimiting the wheelhouse. A threaded bolt is guided through a damper bearing screw hole and through a screw hole of the damper receptacle and the bolt tip of the threaded bolt is screwed together with an internal thread of a reinforcement element which is arranged on the side of the damper receptacle. A positioning aid is associated with the damper receptacle, via which positioning aid the damper bearing of the shock absorber can be pre-positioned in an assembly process up to an installation position in which the screw hole of the damper bearing, the screw hole of the damper receptacle, and the reinforcement element internal thread are oriented flush with respect to each other in a screw direction.

Abstract: A replacement floor assembly may include a base member having a top side, a bottom side, a front end, a rear end, a left side, and a right side. The front end and forward portions of the left and right sides define a forward section of the base member, whereas the rear end and rear portions of the left and right sides define a rear section of the base member. A first outboard flange member is mounted to at least a portion of the left side of the base member and a second outboard flange member is mounted to at least a portion of the right side of said base member. A front flange member is mounted to at least a portion of the front end of said base member so that at least portions of the forward section of the base member, the first and second outboard flange members, and the front flange member define a battery well.
