Abstract

See full text

Transducer structure for a steerable axle includes a transducer assembly having a housing and a cup-shaped journal, having an apertured bottom portion, fixed to the spindle of a steerable wheel by the spindle bolt for rotation with the spindle about the spindle axis. A bracket connected to the guide axle knee nonrotatably supports housing structure above the spindle, and the journal is rotatably received within a bearing and seal in the housing structure. The journal includes apertures which receive mating pins which constrain the rotary member for rotation with the journal relative to the housing structure. A special fixture supported by the tie-rod bolt accurately centers the journal during assembly and facilitates calibration of the transducer.
