  • Patent number: 10494040
    Abstract: A tilting system for a suspended cab of a work vehicle includes a hydraulic cylinder coupled to a chassis of the work vehicle at a first end and the suspended cab at a second end. Further, the hydraulic cylinder is configured to extend to drive the suspended cab to rotate from a lowered position to a raised position. In addition, the hydraulic cylinder is configured to be substantially horizontal while the suspended cab is in the lowered position.
    Type: Grant

  • Patent number: 9982413
    Abstract: A cab suspension system for a work vehicle includes a front suspension assembly having a bracket configured to fixedly couple to a frame of a cab of the work vehicle. In addition, the front suspension assembly includes a support element having a torsion bar and a pair of longitudinal supports. Each of the pair of longitudinal supports is configured to rotatably couple to a chassis of the work vehicle. The front suspension assembly also includes a damping assembly coupled to the support element and configured to couple to the chassis. The bracket is rotatably coupled to the support element at a pivot joint assembly, and the bracket is configured to position the pivot joint assembly forward of the cab relative to a direction of travel of the work vehicle while the bracket is coupled to the frame of the cab.
