Abstract: An air delivery system is operable to on-board compressed air to an associated work vehicle from an associated or auxiliary source such as for example an external large compressor or air storage tank for assisting a tire inflation system (TIS) of the associated work vehicle to expedite tire inflation particularly when transitioning to a desired raised tire pressure, and is further operable to off-board compressed air from a compressor of the TIS system on-board the associated work vehicle for delivery from the TIS to an associated or external compressed air consuming device such as an implement attached with the associated work vehicle or the like. A bi-directional air delivery retrofit kit provides on-boarding and off-boarding of an extra-vehicular compressed air product relative to an associated work vehicle. A dual source air delivery system provides pressurized air to an air storage device from on-board and off-board pressurized air sources.

Abstract: One or more techniques and systems are described herein for synchronized air delivery method between a vehicle's central tire inflation system (CTIS) and an air trailer brake (ATB) system. A synchronized air delivery system can utilize a shared air source as a common shared input to drive two different systems, including the ATB system and CTIS. Based on ATB and CTIS air need feedback, an air compressor clutch can automatically control ON and OFF modes for air inputs using a control algorithm. Air can be provided to the ATB system, to provide air to brakes on a coupled trailer, over the tire inflation operation, such as during a braking event.

Abstract: A valve fitting includes a fitting body defining a fitting passageway, supply and working ports in fluid communication with the fitting passageway, a supply port coupler operable to connect the supply port with an associated feed port coupler providing a pressurized fluid, a working port coupler operable to connect the working port with an associated tire of a tire assembly of an associated work vehicle, a supply valve moveable in the fitting passageway between a first position closing the fitting passageway from the supply port and a second position opening the fitting passageway to the supply port, a biasing assembly biasing the supply valve towards the first position, and an actuator assembly comprising an actuator member operable to urge the supply valve towards the second position against the bias of the biasing assembly in response to the associated feed port coupler being connected with the supply port coupler.

Abstract: A final drive for a work machine includes a housing, a pinion gear, a first idler gear, a second idler gear, and a bull gear. The pinion gear is restrained within the housing. The first idler gear and the second idler gears are rotatably connected to the housing and positioned for engagement with the pinion gear. The bull gear is rotatably connected to the housing and positioned for engagement with the first idler gear and the second idler gear. The housing, the pinion gear, the first idler gear, and the second idler gear are configured to permit the pinion gear to float between the first idler gear, and the second idler to provide even sharing of the load from the pinion gear to the first idler gear and the second idler gear.
