Abstract: A load port includes: a plate-shaped base member having an opening via which a transfer target object is loaded and unloaded; a door member capable of opening and closing the opening; a link mechanism including a link member having one end rotatably connected to the door member; a guide roller configured to move together with the door member; a guide surface bent to extend from a first direction to a second direction and configured to guide the guide roller; a drive member to which the other end of the link member is rotatably connected; and a driver configured to move the drive member in the second direction.

Abstract: A front lower arm is tiltably supported, in a cantilever manner, by an outer surface of each of side-rails provided in right and left vehicle regions and extending in a vehicle front-rear direction. The front lower arm includes: a lower arm body; an inner pivot provided at an inner end of the lower arm body in a vehicle right-left direction and supported by the side-rail; and an attachment portion to which a lower end of a shock absorber is attached, and which is joined to an intermediate section of a front upper corner portion of the lower arm body. The intermediate section is an intermediate section of the front upper corner portion in the vehicle right-left direction. A ball joint to which a knuckle is connected is attached to an outer end of the front lower arm in the vehicle right-left direction.

Abstract: In the front lower arm, a ball joint bracket to which a ball joint to be coupled to a knuckle is attached is welded to an outer end of a lower arm body in the left and right direction of the vehicle. A spindle member connected to a lower end of a shock absorber is provided on a front side of the ball joint bracket in the front and back direction of the vehicle so as to protrude forward. A welding part between the lower arm body and the ball joint bracket is inclined in plan view, toward an outside in the left and right direction from a front part to a rear part of the welded part in the front and back direction. An extension of a central axial line of the spindle member is arranged so as to intersect with the welded part.

Abstract: A vehicle front section structure comprising a side rail extending along a vehicle front-rear direction at a vehicle width direction outside of a vehicle front section, the side rail including a bent portion at the vehicle rear side of a front tire, and the bent portion bending toward the vehicle width direction outside on progression from the vehicle front toward the vehicle rear; and a projection projecting out from the bent portion toward the vehicle width direction outside, and having an angled face angled toward the vehicle width direction outside on progression from the vehicle front toward the vehicle rear at a face of the projection facing the front tire.

Abstract: A vehicle framework structure includes: a side rail that is placed on an outer side, in a vehicle width direction, of a vehicle lower portion of a vehicle with a frame, and that is extended along a vehicle front-rear direction, a dimension, in a vehicle width direction, between front sides of the side rails in a vehicle front-rear direction being shorter than that between rear sides thereof, and the front side in the vehicle front-rear direction being connected to the rear side by a bending portion; an outrigger provided in the bending portion and projecting outward in the vehicle width direction; and a load transmission member provided in the side rail, the load transmission member overlapping with the outrigger in a vehicle side view.

Abstract: Vehicle structures for dissipating energy associated with a collision are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a vehicle includes a side support that extends between a front suspension mount and a rear suspension mount of the vehicle. The side support includes a targeted energy absorption portion that defines a high-strength region of the side support. The vehicle also includes a cab mounting bracket coupled to the side support and extending outward from the side support. The cab mounting bracket includes a rearward attachment position on the side support and the rearward attachment position of the cab mounting bracket is positioned proximate to the high-strength region of the side support. The vehicle further includes a wheel assembly that is coupled to the front suspension mount and is positioned forward of the cab mounting bracket in a vehicle longitudinal direction.
