Dagens lastkännande (aktiva) fjädringssystem på lastbilshytter drivs med tryckluft och arbetar kontinuerligt med att hålla lastbilshytten på rätt höjd. Tryckluften kommer ifrån en stor och tung kompressor som ständigt arbetar för att komprimera luft till lastbilens alla olika delsystem. Alternativet till den aktiva lastkännande hyttfjädringen är att använda en icke lastkännande (passiv) fjädring. Detta begränsar dock lastbilens komfort och utseende, men förbrukar heller ingen energi. Målet med detta examensarbete var att finna en fjädringslösning som både är lastkännande och energieffektiv. För att hitta en lämplig lastkännande lösning gjordes en grundlig undersökning av hyttfjädringslösningar på andra tunga fordon, samt olika fjädringssystem överlag. Det visade sig att användandet av hydraulik ger en tillfredsställande justerbarhet, utan att förbruka någon energi när systemet är i vila (inte aktivt justerar). Systemet skulle även kunna göras mycket kompakt. Det är lätt att anpassa dagens befintliga fjädringskomponenter för att kunna fungera ihop med justerbara hydraulcylindrar, och fjädringens hydraulsystem skulle kunna drivas ihop med övriga hydraulsystem på lastbilen.

One of these energy- consuming systems is the active cab suspension. The load sensing (active) cab systems used today is using pressurized air, pneumatics, to keep the cab at correct ride height. Currently is this pressurized air produced with a big, bulky and heavy compressor that continuously is running to compress air for multiple different subsystems. The alternative to the load sensing active cab suspension is to use non-load sensing (passive) suspension. This option is limiting the comfort and appearance of the cab but is neither using any energy. The goal of this master thesis is to find a suspension solution that is both load sensing and energy-efficient. To find a suitable load sensing solution was cab suspension system on other types of heavy machines inspected, together with suspension systems overall. There could be seen that the use of hydraulics gave the adjustability needed, without consuming any energy when the adjustments had been done. The system could also be very compact. It is easy to adapt the existing suspension components to work together with the hydraulic cylinders, and the hydraulic suspension systems have the possibility to be merged with other hydraulic systems on the truck Keywords: Adjustability, Comfort, Energy, Spring, Suspension 4 Intentional left blank 5 Acknowledgments and Foreword I would like to thank Scania with all the employees that have been helping and supporting me both through my summer job and this thesis.

This means that noise and exhaust gases are more critical than ever. A more quiet and “clean” transport solutions is requested. One solution for this task is to use electrified trucks. Electrified vehicles fit well in due to the political regulations of exhaust and noise regulations and have a positive association with sustainability among people. Background and Problem Description Choosing a fully electric driveline on a truck instead of a conventional diesel engine highly affects the cruising range, due to the limitation of the power storage capacity in the batteries. This means that every chance to minimize the power consumption of all the trucks subsystems must be taken. One subsystem that continuously consumes energy is the pneumatic cab suspension. A set of air bellows sets the ride height and the dampers set the stiffness/comfort of the ride. A compressor must be running more or less continuously to provide the suspension system with pressurized air so the

Sawo Manila, Pasar Minggu, Jakarta 12520, Indonesia. Abstract. For the past decade, active suspension systems had made up most of research area concerning vehicle dynamics. For this review, recent studies on automobile active suspensions systems were examined. Several vehicular suspension types were also described to compare amongst them. From published investigations by previous researchers, various automotive suspensions in terms of cost, weight, structure, reliability, ride comfortability, dynamic and handling performance were exhibited and compared. After careful examination, it was concluded that electromagnetic active suspensions should be the general direction of vehicle suspension designs due to its energy regeneration, high bandwidth, simpler structure, flexible and accurate force control, better handling performance as well as drive characteristics.

    FILE: SERVICE: GROUP 00 OF SERVICE INFORMATION BINDER PARTS: GROUP I OF INFORMATION _ PARTS & ACCESSORIES BINDER Campaign No. 2007060002, June 2007 TO: ALL MERCEDES-BENZ CENTERS SUBJECT: MODELS 215, 220 MODEL YEARS 2000-2004 REPLACE ACTIVE BODY CONTROL (ABC) HIGH PRESSURE DISTRIBUTION HOSE (M113 ENGINE) This Recall Campaign has been initiated because DCAG has determined that on affected vehicles corrosion may occur in the inner steel portions of the Active Body Control’s high-pressure distribution hose due to extensive exposure to humidity. Over time, corrosion may deteriorate the inner steel portions of the ABC’s high-pressure distribution hose. This may result in ABC hydraulic fluid leakage near the catalytic converter of the subject vehicles. Under some circumstances leaking hydraulic fluid may come in contact with hot engine components and lead to a possibility of fire. Prior to performing this Recall Campaign: • Please check VMI to insure the vehicle is involved in the Campaign and if it has been previously repaired. • Please review the entire Recall Campaign bulletin and follow the procedure steps exactly as described. Attached is a sample copy of a letter which owners of the affected vehicles will receive. Approximately 19,824 vehicles are affected. Order No. P-RC-2007060002 This bulletin has been created and maintained in accordance with MBUSA-SLP S423QH001, Document and Data Control, and MBUSA-SLP S424HH001, Control of Quality Records. 2 Procedure NOTE: Refer to the MSDS (via NetStar or the Parts Assistance Center website) for a complete description of hazards and other important safety information regarding the hydraulic fluid used in this procedure.

Of creative technology to provide a combination of course, it’s very important for proper diagnosis and repair to be able to know for sure what the vehicle you’re working on is equipped with. Certain models, such as the early 230 chassis SL- Class, use the ABC hydraulic system, which controls ride height. With its built-in intelligence, if the driver has selected a high setting, it will be overridden whenever the vehicle exceeds 68mph -- the body will descend to its lowest position for optimum center-of-gravity and handling. SAS can be found on later chassis, such as the 211 E-Class. It is an evolution of the older Airmatic system found in the 220 chassis S-Class.
