Vehicle with lockable tilt system

摘要

A vehicle that includes a vehicle body and a vehicle support assembly. The vehicle body has a longitudinal axis and is configured for supporting a rider thereon. The support assembly includes first (421A) and second (421B) tilting wheels disposed respectively at different lateral positions with respect to the longitudinal axis, a tilt-mechanism (452) supportively associating the vehicle body from the tilting wheels to enable the vehicle body to tilt through a first tilt range with respect to a surface on which the tilting wheels are disposed, and a tilt-limiter (456) operably associated with the tilt-mechanism (452) to restrict the tilting of the vehicle body to less than the first tilt range, and releasable to allow the tilting through the first tilt range. The vehicle further comprises a sensor and a motorized tilt adjusting mechanism associated with the sensor to automatically reposition the tilt-mechanism to adjust the inclination of the vehicle body to a predetermined inclination.
