Examples of a brake assembly including an anti-vibration support to reduce vertical oscillation of a brake actuator are disclosed herein. In one example, a brake assembly includes a spring-applied, hydraulic release (SAHR) brake actuator coupled to a caliper and cantilevered over an axle housing, and an anti-vibration bracket that terminates at the SAHR brake actuator at a first end and extends under the SAHR brake actuator at an angle relative to the SAHR brake actuator.

A cooling system for a power take-off is proposed. The cooling system comprises a housing including a first chamber for at least partially accommodating a power take-off and a second chamber for at least partially accommodating an axle assembly including an axle shaft, and at least one passive heat conducting element arranged between the first chamber and the second chamber, the at least one passive heat conducting element being configured to provide thermal communication between the first chamber and the second chamber. Furthermore, a transmission assembly for a vehicle is proposed, the transmission assembly comprising the cooling system.

Systems are provided for an axle arm including a lubricant reservoir and a driveshaft. In one example, system may include a lubricant reservoir of an axle arm comprising a fill line at an edge of a driveshaft, wherein a central axis of the lubricant reservoir is misaligned with a central axis of the driveshaft.

Systems for axle arm

A guide assembly, comprising: an outer guide member; an inner guide member at least partially enclosed by the outer guide member, the outer guide member and the inner guide member delimiting a space therebetween; an elastic member disposed in the space, enclosing the inner guide member and being compressible along an axial direction; a support member; and an actuation member configured to axially compress the elastic member against the support member. The inner guide member comprises an axially extending guiding surface facing the elastic member for restricting movement of the elastic member in a radial direction perpendicular to the axial direction. A length of an axial overlap between the guiding surface of the inner guide member and the elastic member is at least two thirds of an axial length of the elastic member.

Guide assembly comprising an elastic element

The present disclosure relates to a steering joint assembly comprising an axle beam, a first king pin rigidly mounted on the axle beam, a steering knuckle, and a first spherical plain bearing rotatably connecting the first king pin to the steering knuckle.

Steering joint assembly

The present disclosure relates to redundant steering system, including a first steering knuckle rotatable with respect to a first steering axis, a first steering cylinder, a first steering rod coupled to the first steering cylinder, a second steering cylinder, and a second steering rod coupled to the second steering cylinder. The first steering rod and the second steering rod are each rotatably coupled to the first steering knuckle at a distance from the first steering axis and at different positions along the first steering axis.

Redundant steering system

The present disclosure relates to a differential assembly that may have a differential case, a drive gear for driving the differential case, a first differential pin, and a connection member. The connection member fixedly connects the drive gear and the first differential pin to the differential case.
