A tire inflation system having a peristaltic pump. The peristaltic pump may output a pressurized gas when a flexible tube of the peristaltic pump rotates with a wheel end assembly about an axis.

Tire inflation system with peristaltic pump

A tire inflation system having a spindle that is configured to support a wheel bearing. A passage for routing pressurized gas may be provided with the spindle or with a sleeve that may be disposed on the spindle.

Tire inflation system with a passage for routing pressurized gas

An axle assembly having an axle, a brake spider and a bearing collar. The axle may have first and second transition regions. The first transition region may extend between first and second cylindrical portions of the axle. The second transition region may extend between second and third cylindrical portions of the axle. The brake spider may be disposed on the second cylindrical portion. The bearing collar may be disposed on the second transition region.

Axle assembly

A tire inflation system having a spindle, a pump actuating member, and a pump. The pump actuating member may actuate the pump when the pump rotates about an axis, thereby causing the pump to output a pressurized gas.

Tire inflation system with axle driven pump

A tire inflation system having a conduit, a hub, and a seal assembly. The hub may be rotatably mounted on a spindle and may have a passage. The seal assembly may have a seal passage that fluidly connects the conduit to the passage.

Tire inflation system having a passage for routing pressurized gas through a hub

A tire inflation system for a vehicle. The tire inflation system may include a gas supply subsystem that may supply pressurized gas to a tire via first conduit that may be connected to an axle shaft.

Tire inflation system with external pressurized gas routing

A wheel assembly includes an attachment member with a spindle attachment interface and a brake attachment interface. A spindle is attached to the spindle attachment interface and a brake component is attached to the brake attachment interface. The spindle attachment interface is configured to be a detachable connection that allows the spindle to be selectively attached and detached from the wheel assembly.

Spindle and brake attachment member for a vehicle

A trailer axle suspension system and a method of control. The trailer axle suspension system may be deflated when the trailer is approaching the dock and proximity of the trailer to the dock is within a predetermined limit.

Trailer axle suspension system and a method of control

An adjustment assembly includes first and second connection points associated with a component. The second connection point is selectively adjustable to adjust a position of the component. A shield has one end coupled to the first connection point and an opposite end proximate to the second connection point to selectively prevent access to the second connection point. The shield is selectively movable when the first connection point is loosened to allow access to the second connection point. To achieve proper adjustment of the component, the first connection point must be loosened prior to adjusting a position of the second connection point.

Adjustment assembly

An axle suspension system for a vehicle. The axle suspension system may include an axle having an exterior surface and an axle wrap. The axle wrap may include a wrap portion, a cam bracket, and an actuator bracket. The wrap portion may engage the exterior surface. The cam bracket and actuator bracket may be spaced apart and may extend from the wrap portion.

Axle suspension system

A suspension includes first and second arms that connect a rigid axle to a frame structure. The first arm has one end configured for connection to a rigid axle structure and an opposite end adapted for connection to one lateral side of the frame structure. The second arm has one end configured for connection to the rigid axle structure and an opposite end adapted for connection to an opposite lateral side of the frame structure. The suspension includes a first air spring associated with the first arm and a second air spring associated with the second arm. The first and second air springs are configured to be positioned laterally outboard of the frame structure.
