Abstract:
A rear vehicle body structure may include a rear side member connected to a back beam provided at the rear of the vehicle body, and a rear floor including a rear floor side portion with which the rear side member is connected, a tire wall formed with concave step from the rear floor side portion, and a rear floor transverse reinforcement formed protrude along the shape of the rear floor side portion and the tire wall from the rear of the rear floor side portion and the tire wall.
Abstract:
Powered retractable vehicle step assist systems and methods are provided. The steps systems are configured for installation (e.g., after market installation) and use with a vehicle. The system can include a stepping member movable between a retracted position and a deployed position with respect to the vehicle. The system can further include a vehicle interface. A controller of the step system can be configured to process information received from the vehicle interface and, based at least partly on the processing of the information, cause movement of the stepping member between the retracted position and the deployed position.
Abstract:
A resin-made fuel tank mounting structure for construction machine is provided that provides a tank capacity without significantly affecting the layouts of other components and easily achieves assembling quality required for the resin-made fuel tank. A resin-made fuel tank mounting structure for mounting resin-made fuel tank on a construction machine including stepwise maintenance steps having plurality of treads and connecting a body floor on body frame and maintenance floor arranged above the body floor, wherein stepwise portion constituting a part of a plurality of treads of maintenance steps is formed on resin-made fuel tank, and horizontal surface of first bracket for fixing resin-made fuel tank onto the body floor is used as the lowest tread on the body floor of the plurality of treads.
Abstract:
A power takeoff unit is comprised of: a casing dividable into a first part and a second part; an inner shaft receiving torque from an engine; an outer shaft independently rotatable and coaxial with the inner shaft; a clutch for connecting the inner shaft with the outer shaft; an actuator configured to connect the clutch; an output shaft for outputting torque; and a gear set drivingly coupling the outer shaft with the output shaft, wherein the outer shaft and the output shaft are rotatably supported by the first part, the clutch is rotatably supported by the second part, and the actuator is fixed to the second part, whereby the clutch and the actuator along with the second part are separable from the first part.
Abstract:
A method for measuring an offset of a resolver is arranged so as to frequently measure and correct the offset of the resolver by actively performing zero current control of a motor. The method includes steps of: determining whether a torque command value of the motor and a magnetic flux value or reverse magnetic flux value of the motor respectively fall within a first range and a second range, which have been set in advance; controlling the motor to perform zero current control for a preset time period when the torque command value of the motor falls within the first range and the magnetic flux value or reverse magnetic flux value of the motor falls within the second range; and measuring the offset of the resolver for the preset time period.
Abstract:
A disposing method for an inlet pipe in a muffler that includes an outer shell, an inlet pipe, and a separating plate, the disposing method comprising: a first step of inserting the inlet pipe into the outer shell from an opening at one end of the outer shell; a second step of disposing the inlet pipe by moving the inlet pipe within the outer shell in a direction substantially orthogonal to the direction of insertion of the inlet pipe; and a third step of disposing the separating plate by inserting the separating plate into the outer shell from the opening at the other end of the outer shell.
Abstract:
A vehicle body structure for a two-track vehicle, includes a first bearing component formed on a housing of a traction battery of the two-track vehicle, said traction battery being arranged in longitudinal direction of the two-track vehicle anterior of an auxiliary frame of a rear axle of the two-track vehicle; a second bearing component engaging in or about the first bearing component, said second bearing component extending at least one lateral longitudinal member of the auxiliary frame frontward in the longitudinal direction; and a vibration damping unit arranged between the first bearing component and the second bearing component, with the first bearing component, the second bearing component and the vibration damping unit together forming a front bearing of the auxiliary frame which connects the auxiliary frame to a body of the two-track vehicle.

Powered retractable vehicle step assist systems and methods are provided. The steps systems are configured for installation (e.g., after market installation) and use with a vehicle. The system can include a stepping member movable between a retracted position and a deployed position with respect to the vehicle. The system can further include a vehicle interface configured to electronically communicate with an existing communication bus of the vehicle, such as through a connection with an existing electronics port of the vehicle. A controller of the step system can be configured to process information received from the vehicle interface and, based at least partly on the processing of the information, cause movement of the stepping member between the retracted position and the deployed position.
Abstract:
A hydromechanical transmission 11 includes a hydraulic unit 23 and a gear unit 24. The gear unit 24 includes a first gear unit housing 29a defining a first sump 37a having a first set of gears 71. A second gear unit housing 29b defines a substantially smaller second sump 37b having a second set of gears 78, 79. An input shaft 62 extends longitudinally into the first sump 37a, and an output shaft 63 extends longitudinally from the second sump 37b. The longitudinal axes of the input and output shafts are substantially coaxial. A first hydraulic pump motor unit drive shaft 44 extends into the first sump 37a and is drivingly connected with the first set of gears, and a second hydraulic pump motor unit drive shaft 45 extends through the first sump 37a and into the second sump 37b and is drivingly connected with the second set of gears.
