Vehicle wheel compensating/suspending systems

摘要

The vehicle suspension system embodies a vehicle chassis, a pair of opposed axle-mounted wheels mounted to a U-shaped member which is pivoted to the chassis for allowing interdependent vertical wheel deflection relative to the chassis, and a pair of opposed link members. Each link member is pivotally connected to a U-shaped member and also pivotally connected to a respective toggle. A damping means is extendable transversely across and upwardly of the chassis and is pivotally engageable at each of its termini with a respective adjacent toggle. Any deflection in one of the wheels generating a stress in the damping means transmits a compensating reaction on the opposite wheel through its associated link member.
