Abstract: An adjustment apparatus for a forage harvester including a shear bar which is adjustably mounted on a housing which supports a chopper drum mounted for rotation about an axis and having a plurality of circumferentially spaced knife supports holding adjustably secured chopper knifes. The chopper knives act with the shear bar to chop incoming crop. The adjustment apparatus includes a lateral element, at least one location element and at least one radially inwardly directed guide surface, which follows a desired outer path of an unworn chopper knife.

Abstract: An adjustment apparatus for a forage harvester having a shear bar adjustably mounted on a housing. A chopper drum is supported from the housing and mounted for rotation about an axis and further provided with a plurality of circumferentially spaced knife supports to which at least one chopper knife can be adjustably secured. In use the chopper knives cooperate with the shear bar to chop incoming crop. The adjustment apparatus includes a lateral element, at least one location element and at least one radially inwardly directed guide surface. The adjustment apparatus also includes at least one shear bar alignment surface on one or more of the location elements.

Each guide surface is adjustably located with respect to the lateral element.

Abstract: An electric vehicle includes a drive unit fitted to a rear axle of the electric vehicle to transmit drive power generated by a motor to rear wheels of the electric vehicle, an auxiliary electric device group including a plurality of auxiliary electric devices disposed in a cab area which is disposed under a cab of the electric vehicle and between side rails which constitute a ladder frame of the electric vehicle, a battery pack disposed between the drive unit and the auxiliary electric device group and between the side rails, a power distribution device disposed on an auxiliary electric device group side of the battery pack and between the side rails to distribute power from the battery pack to the auxiliary electric devices, and a drive power supply device disposed on a drive unit side of the battery pack to supply power from the battery pack to the motor.

Abstract: A vehicle battery housing which enables an electric vehicle to have an increased battery on-board capacity. The vehicle battery housing is mounted on a vehicle having a ladder frame and includes a first battery accommodating portion arranged in a first space between two side rails constituting the ladder frame and a second battery accommodating portion greater in vehicle-widthwise dimension than the first battery accommodating portion and connected to the first battery accommodating portion to be located in a second space vehicle-heightwise below the first space.

Abstract: A support device of a vehicle battery pack of a vehicle. The vehicle battery pack includes a first battery accommodating portion disposed in a first space of the vehicle and a second battery accommodating portion, where the second battery accommodating portion is greater in a vehicle-widthwise dimension than the first battery accommodating portion, where the second battery accommodating portion is connected to the first battery accommodating portion, where the second battery accommodating portion is disposed in a second space, and where the second space is below the first space in a vehicle-heightwise dimension. A frame-side bracket is disposed at a vehicle-widthwise outer surface of a web of a side rail of a ladder frame of the vehicle and projects outward in a vehicle-widthwise direction and a connecting member elastically connects the second battery accommodating portion to the frame-side bracket to suspend the vehicle battery pack to the ladder frame.

Abstract: The invention relates to a battery device (10) for a vehicle, having a main battery system (20) with at least two battery units (BS) and an emergency battery system (30) with at least one battery unit (BS), wherein the main battery system (20) has more battery units (BS) than the emergency battery system (30), wherein the main battery system (20) and the emergency battery system (30) furthermore have the same nominal voltage and are electrically connected in parallel with one another, and the main battery system (20) has a main switch (22) for disconnecting the main battery system (20) and the emergency battery system (30) has an emergency switch (32), separate from the main switch (22), for disconnecting the emergency battery system (30).
