Abstract
Axle adjustment system of a commercial vehicle includes a frame element with a first guide region that includes first guide openings where the first region is attached to an axle and displaces a steering element in an adjustment direction, and an alignable eccentric element with an opening, the arrangement of which relative to the first guide region determines the displacement of the steering element, and a second guide region that includes a second guide opening via which the eccentric element and the frame element are in engagement with one another and in which a pin-like element engages the pin-like element being movable in the second guide opening, when the eccentric element is aligned.
Claims17
A commercial vehicle trailer, comprising:
- an axle adjustment system of the commercial vehicle trailer that comprises:
- a frame element that includes a first guide region that includes a first guide opening, where the first guide region is configured to be attached to an axle of the commercial vehicle trailer in a mounted state and to displace a steering element in an adjustment direction, and an alignable eccentric element that includes an opening, where the arrangement of the alignable eccentric element in relation to the first guide region determines the displacement of the steering element;
- and
- a second guide region that includes a second guide opening via which the eccentric element and the frame element engage with one another and in which a threadless pin-like element engages in the mounted state;
- wherein the pin-like element is configured to be displaced relative to the second guide region in the second guide opening, when the eccentric element is aligned;
- wherein the frame element includes a support bracket;
- wherein the opening of the eccentric element includes a circular aperture;
- and
- wherein a first centre of the opening of the eccentric element is offset by a guide eccentricity with respect to a guide centre of the second guide region.
