  • Patent number: 11584187
    Abstract: A vehicle suspension system comprising a hydropneumatic strut comprising a fluid interface, where supply of hydraulic fluid to the strut via the fluid interface causes the overall length of the strut to increase, and withdrawal of hydraulic fluid via the fluid interface causes the overall length of the strut to decrease, a first displacement system in fluid communication with the fluid interface, capable of supplying and withdrawing fluid to and from the strut as well as measuring the volume of fluid supplied or withdrawn from the strut, a second displacement system in fluid communication with the fluid interface, and a hydraulic fluid source for selectively supplying or withdrawing hydraulic fluid from the hydropneumatic strut via either of the first or second displacement systems.

  • Publication number: 20210394666
    Abstract: The invention relates to a device (1) for fixing a container on a loading area, having a bolt (6) and having a lift drive (10), wherein the bolt (6) is rotatable and by means of the lift drive (10) is displaceable along a longitudinal axis of the bolt (6), wherein the bolt (6) in a secured position by means of a locking element (21) is secured against rotation and against axial displacement. The device (1) for fixing the container is improved in that the lift drive (10) is designed in such a manner that a head (7) of the bolt is displaceable through the slot (5) up to a first terminal position, wherein the head (7) of the bolt (6) in the first terminal position is spaced apart from the periphery of the slot (5) so as to have an axial clearance relative to said periphery, wherein the bolt (6) then is retractable to a second terminal position in which the head (7) of the bolt (6) bears on the periphery of the slot (5).
