Each end portion supports a rotatable wheel. The front axle further has a box body connected rigidly to the axle to connect it to the frame in freely rotating manner via the interposition of a first spherical joint. A connecting unit connects the front axle stably to the frame to enable the loads on the wheels to be transmitted to the frame.
