Suspension means for small vehicles

摘要

An improved and simplified suspension system for a small vehicle such as a golf cart designed to be operated by a single rider in a standing fashion. The front wheels are carried by a single beam type axle that is pivotal about a central pivot axis. An elastic block front suspension is incorporated for providing a progressively increasing spring rate upon suspension movement. In addition, resilient fore and aft damping devices in the form of U-shaped resilient blocks engage the beam axle and restrain its fore and aft movement.
