Abstract: A pneumatic suspension system for a vehicle is provided comprising a mounting arrangement for mounting a portion of the vehicle on a chassis; the mounting arrangement including at least one pneumatic spring to be arranged and coupled between the portion of the vehicle and the vehicle chassis. A vehicle state control system is provided that provides a pressure set value in the pneumatic spring and a pressure controller is arranged to a valve device alternatively for pressurizing or depressurizing the each pneumatic spring. The valve device comprises at least a first valve having a valve outlet coupled to the spring terminal and a valve inlet communicatively coupled to the pressure terminal. A support structure (102) distinct from the sealing edge (104) is provided arranged to providing supporting contact to the sealing face to counteract deformations of the sealing face.

Abstract: A combustion engine comprises a suction valve system for discharging blow-by gas from the crankcase into an air inlet channel for the cylinders. The suction valve system is driven by an electromotor which is connected to a power source. The system comprises a rev counter which measures the rpm of the suction valve system, as well as a control unit which is connected to the power source, the rev counter and the engine management system. The control unit can set predefined engine conditions as well as the power flowing to the suction valve system to have this system rotate at a predefined speed. The value of the set power is a measurement for the blow-by. In lieu of regulating the power flowing to the suction valve system, the control unit can also set the power flowing to the suction valve system to a predefined value. The rev counter then measures the rpm of the suction valve system, which is a measurement for the blow-by.

Abstract: A mounting arrangement (1; 101; 201) for mounting a trailer coupling to a tractor vehicle with a chassis that has a pair of rearwardly extending opposite left and right frame side members (9, 11; 109, 111; 209, 211) that includes opposite left and right bearing blocks (5, 7; 105, 107; 205, 207). The opposite left and right bearing blocks (5, 7; 105, 107; 205, 207) each have a support surface and a pivot bearing for being fixed directly or indirectly to the chassis of the tractor vehicle. A coupling saddle plate (3; 103; 203) is pivotally mounted from the opposite pivot bearings of the left and right bearing blocks (5, 7; 105, 107; 205, 207), while a diagonal cross brace (35; 135; 235) is provided between at least one of the left and right bearing blocks and a respective one of the transversely opposite right or left frame side members (9, 11; 109, 111; 209, 211).

Abstract: An exhaust gas system for a diesel engine comprises a filter 9 that includes channels extending in the direction of flow and having porous walls 13 which are clad with an SCR catalyst coating 25. Neighbouring channels are alternately shut off by end plugs 15, 17 at the inlet end and the outlet end, as a result of which the exhaust gas is forced to flow through the walls. The walls 13 are coated with an AMOX catalyst coating 29 from the end 21 over a distance 27. The end plugs 17 in the outlet ends have a length that at least equals said distance 27. As a result, one side of the wall sections coated with the AMOX catalyst coating is covered and the exhaust gas cannot but flow first through the wall sections coated with SCR catalyst coating 25 and only then can the exhaust gas flow past the wall sections coated with the AMOX catalyst coating 29.

Abstract: A support assembly for receiving a vehicle wheel suspension and adapted for mounting to a vehicle structure, is disclosed that includes: a transverse body (3, 203, 303) having opposite ends; a left hand anchoring strut (9, 209, 309) extending downwardly from the transverse body (3, 203, 303) to define a distal left hand lower end; a right hand anchoring strut (7, 207, 307) extending downwardly from the transverse body (3, 203, 303) to define a distal right hand lower end. Separately attached left hand and right hand external reinforcing elements (31, 33; 231, 233, 333) each extend from an adjacent one of the opposite ends of the transverse body (3, 203, 303) to a connecting area (35, 37; 235, 335, 337) adjacent the respective one of the left and right hand distal lower ends of the downwardly extending anchoring struts (7, 9; 207, 209, 307, 309).

Abstract: A device has an air inlet channel with at an end an inlet opening for fresh air and at the other end an outlet opening for a mixture of air and exhaust gas. A part of a wall of the air inlet channel is provided with mixing openings for supply of exhaust gas. The device further has an exhaust gas recirculation channel connected to the mixing openings and provided with an inlet opening for exhaust gas.

Abstract: A disc for a disc stack separator for a breathing system of a crankcase space of a combustion engine of a vehicle has an annular conical section and a central part located therein and having a plurality of openings. The conical section is provided on one side with ribs which are curved from the inner periphery of the conical section to the outer circumference of the conical section.

Abstract: A duct is provided for interconnecting separate stages of a compressor or a compressor and an intercooler of an internal combustion engine. The duct comprises a lumen for conveying compressed air and at least one channel for a cooling liquid, which channel at least partially surrounds the lumen and/or extends inside the lumen. The duct enables effective cooling of compressed air e.g. from 260° C. to 220° C. at a relatively low pressure drop, thus increasing service life of downstream equipment, in particular a downstream intercooler.
