Abstract: A support structure for a vehicle includes: a body portion (22); a damper attachment portion (24); a tie-rod attachment portion (26); and a lower arm attachment portion (28). The vehicle supporting structure (20) has a first rib (32) that connects the damper attachment portion (24) with the tie-rod attachment portion (26), a second rib (34) that connects the tie-rod attachment portion (26) and the lower arm attachment portion (28), and a third rib (36) that connects the first rib with the second rib. The first rib is inclined to have a height that gradually decreases from the damper attachment portion toward the tie-rod attachment portion, forming a first inclined portion (32a) and a first thinned portion (32b). The third rib is inclined to have a height that gradually decreases from the second rib toward the first rib, forming a second inclined portion (36a) and a second thinned portion (36b).

Abstract: An off-road vehicle has two front wheels and two rear wheels, the rear wheels being connected to a spool gear driven by a motor. The vehicle also has a left front brake, a right front brake and a single rear brake. Speeds of left and right front wheels are respectively monitored by left and right front speed sensors. A single sensor monitors a common speed of left and right rear wheels. Two user actuated braking input devices, for example a hand lever and a foot lever, may be used independently or concurrently to provide a braking command. An anti-lock braking system may use speed measurements from the various speed sensors to control selective application of pressure on the left front brake, the right front brake and the rear brake.

Abstract: An in-wheel motor drive device (10) includes: a wheel hub bearing portion (11); a motor portion (21) and a deceleration portion (31) disposed in an upwardly offset manner with respect to an axis of the wheel hub bearing portion (11); and a carrier (101) projecting downward to a position below the wheel hub bearing portion (11). A suspension connection portion (101c) is mounted on a lower end of the carrier (101), the suspension connection portion (101c) to be connected with a suspension device (116) so as to be directable in any direction. The suspension connection portion (101c) is disposed in an overlapping manner with the wheel hub bearing portion (11) with respect to a position in an axial direction of the wheel hub bearing portion (11).

Abstract: A dual bearing strut assembly for a vehicle suspension system includes a strut with a shock absorber comprising a damper cylinder and a piston rod, and a coil spring disposed around the shock absorber. The damper cylinder may be affixed to a knuckle of a vehicle wheel assembly and the piston rod may be affixed to a top strut mount. An upper bearing assembly and a lower bearing assembly are included. The coil spring has an upper end seated to the upper bearing assembly and a lower end seated to the lower bearing assembly. The lower end of the coil spring freely rotates about the damper cylinder when the coil spring is compressed thereby reducing torque on the damper cylinder and reducing “bump steer” of the vehicle steering system.

Abstract: A suspension device for an in-wheel motor driven wheel is provided. An upper suspension arm is pivotally supported on the vehicle body for supporting the wheel in a vehicle upper position higher than an axle. A link member pivotally connects the wheel to the upper suspension arm and has an absorber connecting portion connected to a lower end of the shock absorber. The shock absorber connecting portion is disposed in the vehicle bottom position lower than an upper end portion of the in-wheel motor unit. The shock absorber is disposed between the vehicle body and the in-wheel motor unit and inclined so as to be closer to the vehicle body toward the lower end.
