  • Patent number: 6616158
    Abstract: A system for sensing the spatial position of suspended axles in industrial vehicles includes two angular sensors (32) fitted on opposite pins (26), each of which is provided with a relative spherical coupling (27) for a panhard bar (16) interposed between an axle (11) and the chassis (15) of the industrial vehicle. Each of the sensors (32) interposed between the axle (11) and the chassis (15) of the industrial vehicle is operated by elastic laminas (35, 36) and each sensor has a drive pin rotated by a corresponding rotating hub (34), the angular sensors (32) detecting the spatial oscillations of the panhard bar (16) in relation to the axle (11) and the chassis (15) of the industrial vehicle. There are two elastic laminas (35, 36) for each angular sensor (32) and these are fitted parallel to a lateral surface of the panhard bar (16), partially overlapping one another and fixed at one end to one of the angular sensors (32) and at the other end to the surface of the panhard bar (16).

  • Publication number: 20020070521
    Abstract: A control device of the spatial position in a suspended axle for industrial vehicles essentially comprising two angular sensors (32) fitted on opposite pins (26), each of which is provided with a relative spherical coupling (27) for a panhard bar (16) interposed between an axle (11) and the chassis (15) of the industrial vehicle, each of the sensors (32) interposed between the axle (11) and the chassis (15) of the industrial vehicle being operated by elastic laminas (35, 36) and each sensor receiving motion from the corresponding rotating hub (34), the angular sensors (32) detecting the spatial oscillations of the panhard bar (16) in relation to the axle (11) and the chassis (15) of the industrial vehicle. There are two elastic laminas (35, 36) for each angular sensor (32) and these are fitted parallel to each lateral surface of the panhard bar (16), partially overlapping one another and fixed on one side to one of the angular sensors (32) and on the other to the surface of the panhard bar (16).
