  • Vehicle gear box in particular for heavy and special vehicles
    Patent number: 5099715
    Abstract: Method for lubricating vehicle gears, characterized in that the lubricating oil is injected directly into the areas to be lubricated by means of a plurality of injection elements (43) and the consumed oil is returned to said injection elements by means of a closed circuit (35, 37, 40, 43, 45, 47, 49), where defoaming and preparation takes place.
    Type: Grant

  • Axle suspension for vehicles, particularly heavy vehicles with two or more axles
    Patent number: 5024465
    Abstract: The axle suspension for vehicles, particularly heavy and special vehicles, has an axle housing connection using two telescopic assemblies (26, 20, 21, 24, 87) each having a telescopic cylinder (6, 95) and a telescopic tube (2, 23, 43, 91) displaceable therein with a working piston (20, 44, 55, 82) at one end and a hinged connection (3) at the other. The telescopic cylinder (6, 95) as a mounting tube is fixed to the chassis (5) and the telescopic tube (2, 23, 43, 91) is connected in articulated manner to axle (4), in such a way that the axle is pivotable at right angles to the vehicle, but cannot be rotated about its own axis. The telescopic assemblies guiding the axle (4) accomplish the vehicle suspension, as well as vertical adjustment and slope compensation of the vehicle.

  • Multipurpose chassis for commercial and special vehicles
    Patent number: 4941680
    Abstract: For commercial and special vehicles, such as e.g. weapon transporters, mobile radar stations, mobile satellite control stations and mobile cranes, which must carry very considerable weight, very robust chassis are required.The inventive chassis (1) has a so-called box-frame construction. It comprises a lower and an upper carrier plate (2, 3), which are reinforced and joined by reinforcing elements (12) located between them. This construction leads to an enormous load bearing capacity and extremely high rigidity against twisting or torsion in the case of a reduced height of chassis (1). Unlike the case of conventional chassis constructions with an overall height of 30-40 cm, minimum heights of approximately 10 cm are possible here. Through covering the outer faces of the chassis with vertical cover plates, an additional reinforcement is obtained.These measures permit a configuration which, even when using large wheels, makes it possible to mount the chassis at a very low level.
