Patent number: 11390332Abstract: A suspension system for a cab of an agricultural vehicle having a frame. The suspension system includes a pair of first mounts configured for connecting the cab to the frame at a first region, a pair of second mounts configured for connecting the cab to the frame at a second region, and a pair of actuators configured for connecting the cab to the frame at a third region. The actuators are configured for variably damping a movement of the cab. The suspension system also includes a first suspension linkage laterally connected in between the second mounts. The suspension system also includes a second suspension linkage configured for connecting the cab to the frame at a fourth region. The second suspension linkage is configured for limiting a rotation of the cab about the longitudinal axis of the frame.Type: GrantFiled: November 8, 2019Date of Patent: July 19, 2022Assignee: CNH Industrial America LLCInventors: Jacob Charles, Shane M.

Patent number: 10369914Abstract: A beverage retaining system for an off-road vehicle. The beverage retaining system includes a cup holder tray that has a cup receiving portion with a bottom wall, and at least one magnetic element located subjacent to the bottom wall of the cup receiving portion. The magnetic element is configured to provide a magnetic retention force. The beverage retaining system also includes a beverage container that has a bottom end and at least one retaining element located on the bottom end. The beverage container is configured to be moveable between a secured position in which the at least one retaining element substantially engages with the magnetic retention force of the at least one magnetic element and an unsecured position in which the at least one retaining element substantially disengages with the magnetic retention force of the at least one magnetic element.Type: GrantFiled: August 24, 2017Date of Patent: August 6, 2019Assignee: CNH Inudstrial America LLCInventors: Shane M. Scott, Salvatore Virgilio

Publication number: 20190100073Abstract: A duct assembly for a work vehicle includes a fender duct that includes a body that extends between a first opening and a second opening. Furthermore, the fender duct flows fluid between the first opening and the second opening. The fender duct is positioned on a bottom side of the work vehicle and radially outward from a wheel of the work vehicle. The duct assembly for the work vehicle further includes an armor assembly positioned radially outward from the fender duct, such that the armor assembly forms a housing around the fender duct.Type: ApplicationFiled: October 2, 2017Publication date: April 4, 2019Inventors: John Francis Link, Shane M. Scott, Phetsamone Siriphong, Thomas Lee Howard

Patent number: 9889893Abstract: A system for suspending a cab frame relative to a base component of a work vehicle may generally include a sensor assembly coupled between the cab frame and the base component. The sensor assembly may include a sensor coupled to the cab frame and a sensor arm configured to pivot relative to the sensor. The sensor assembly may also include a sensor linkage extending lengthwise between a first end portion and a second end portion. The first end portion of the sensor linkage may be coupled to the sensor arm. Additionally, the second end portion of the sensor linkage may be coupled to the base component such that the second end portion is rotatable relative to the base component about at least two different axes.Type: GrantFiled: February 26, 2016Date of Patent: February 13, 2018Assignee: CNH Industrial America LLCInventor: Shane M.

Patent number: 9487249Abstract: A cab suspension system for coupling a cab frame to a chassis frame of a work vehicle is disclosed. The chassis frame may include a suspension platform. The suspension system may generally include a pad configured to be coupled to the cab frame and an outer tube extending from the pad in a direction of the suspension platform. The outer tube may define a circumference. Additionally, the suspension system may include a bump stop coupled to the outer tube. The bump stop may extend around a portion of the circumference of the outer tube. Moreover, at least a portion the bump stop may extend below the outer tube such that the bump stop is configured to contact the suspension platform prior to the outer tube when the outer tube is moved in the direction of the suspension platform.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 2013Date of Patent: November 8, 2016Assignee: CNH Industrial America LLCInventors: Shane M.
