Ball spindle joint assembly

Номер: GB2585125A
Принадлежит:

The female part of the ball spindle joint is a through hole 2, the through hole being split into a first 3, a second 4 and a third region 5 by boundaries 2B, 2C, characterised in that the diameter of the second region 4 is greater than the third region 5, forming a clearance gap 14 between the shaft 29 of the ball spindle 21 and the second region 4 of the through hole 2. Thus, the shaft 29 is in contact with the wall of the through hole at the first 3 and the third region 5. The first region 3 is the primary load bearing feature, and the third region 5 secondary. When a load (fig 6, JF) is applied to the ball 31 of the ball spindle 21, causing a moment (fig 6, M), the third region 5 may induce a counter force (fig 6, CRF) to balance the moment. A fourth region 6 may form a second clearance gap (fig 5, 16) to prevent damaging the threads 38.

A wheeled vehicle is provided with a plurality of wheel assemblies 182, 184, 186, 188, each attached to a wheel of the vehicle, so that each wheel can be retracted and have its height adjusted. If a wheel is damaged or lost, its wheel assembly can be raised and retracted to prevent further damage, while the remaining wheels are retracted or extended to a position so that the centroid 200 of the wheels is moved towards the vehicle’s centre of gravity 210. A shear linkage may allow detachment of a damaged wheel assembly. The vehicle is particularly suitable for use in hostile situations such as in combat or in adverse environmental situations. A corresponding control system is also provided.

A damper coupling part 67 at one end of a damper 44 is coupled to either of a coupling shaft 33 or 34 for coupling an upper arm 31 or a lower arm 32 and a knuckle 35. As impact from a wheel is not applied to an intermediate part of an arm and no bending moment acts upon the arm, the arm is not required to be reinforced and can be lightened. Also, a damper attachment for attaching a damper to the arm is not required to be provided, the number of parts can be reduced and the manufacturing cost of the arm can be reduced.

A frame for an off road vehicle includes main beams establishing a base plane. Mounting beams, which can be used to support forces from the swing arm of a rear suspension, are spaced outside the main beams and within the base plane, running longitudinally in line with the swing arms of the rear suspension. Right and left longitudinal beams start within the base plane, but rise to their trailing ends so as to not interfere with the suspension travel of the swing arms as they extend back inward over the swing arms. Front and rear support columns can further attach into, secure and support the mounting beams and the longitudinal beams.
