Abstract: A steering wheel assembly includes a fixed hub and a steering wheel held rotatably about the fixed hub. The steering wheel assembly is characterized by a housing removably locked to the fixed hub, the housing and/or the fixed hub having at least one locking feature; and a locking mechanism that interacts with the at least one locking feature to lock the housing to the fixed hub, with actuation of the locking mechanism in an unlock direction allowing the housing to be unlocked from the fixed hub.

Abstract: A controller of an airflow control system is configured to determine a target position of a door of an airflow control assembly, a first flow rate of a first airflow from a recirculated air blower, and a second flow rate of a second airflow from a fresh air blower based at least in part on a target total airflow rate into an interior of a and a target fresh airflow rate into the interior of the cab. The fresh air blower receives a mixture of fresh air and recirculated air based on a position of the door. The controller is further configured to instruct the airflow control assembly to move the door to the target position, instruct the recirculated air blower to output the first airflow at the first flow rate, and instruct the fresh air blower to output the second airflow at the second flow rate.

Abstract: A vehicle cab assembly includes an internal frame including multiple rigid members that are secured rigidly one to another. The vehicle cab assembly also includes multiple cladding panels that obscure the internal frame and enclose it uninterruptedly in at least one plane. The cladding panels are supported on an exterior of the internal frame and define mutually abutting panel edges along which the cladding panels are sealed one to another to define weather-proof joints of the vehicle cab assembly.

Abstract: A vehicle cab assembly (60) comprises an internal frame (10) including a plurality of rigid members (11, 12, 13, 14, 16, 17, 18, 19, 21, 22 and 23) that are secured rigidly one to another; and a plurality of cladding panels that obscure the frame and enclose it uninterruptedly in at least one plane. The cladding panels are supported on the exterior of the frame (10) and define a plurality of mutually abutting panel edges along which the cladding panels are sealed one to another to define a plurality of weather-proof joints of the cab.

Abstract: A joystick control is disclosed for a change speed gearbox in which two selector are separately controllable remotely. The joystick control comprises a support body, an axle rotatably supported by the body, and an operating lever connected to the axle by a pivot pin such that the operating lever is rotatable about the axis of the axle in one plane and is pivotable relative to the axle about the axis of the pivot pin in an orthogonal plane. Two actuating members are rotatably supported by the axle and arranged one on each side of the operating lever. Each actuating member is connectable by a respective Bowden cable to one of the selectors of the gearbox and extends and retracts the cable in response to rotation of the actuating member about the axle.

Abstract: A steering device for a vehicle comprises a steering wheel including a central part arranged for facing a driver and a rim that can be rotated in order to steer the vehicle, the steering wheel further comprising air dispensing means for directing an air flow towards the driver.

Abstract: A roof assembly is disclosed for the cabin of a tractor that provides protection against falling objects. The assembly comprises an outer cover of a molded plastics material and a reinforcement metal plate to provide protection against falling objects. The reinforcement plate is secured to the outer cover prior to the assembly being mounted on the cabin frame.
