Abstract
A vehicle comprising a frame and a cab or the like supported by the frame by a resilient suspension, the resilient suspension is essentially constituted by a main U-shaped torque rod interposed in slanting or horizontal position between the frame and the cab, a main actuator being associated to the said main torque rod to determine its neutral position.
Claims11
A work vehicle comprising a frame and a cab supported by said frame by resilient suspension means,
- wherein the resilient suspension means include a main U-shaped rod interposed in inclined or horizontal position between the frame and said cab, a main actuator being connected to said main U-shaped rod to determine its neutral position,
- wherein pitching motion control means of the suspended cab are connected to said resilient suspension means and wherein said pitching control means include a secondary U-shaped rod, interposed between the frame and the cab, said secondary rod determining at least a third cab support point not aligned with said two support points determined by the main U-shaped rod.
A farm tractor comprising a frame and a cab supported by said frame by resilient suspension means,
- wherein the resilient suspension means include a main U-shaped rod interposed in inclined or horizontal position between the frame and said cab, a main actuator being connected to said main U-shaped rod to determine its neutral position,
- wherein pitching motion control means of the suspended cab are connected to said resilient suspension means, and wherein said pitching control means include a secondary U-shaped rod, interposed between the frame and the cab, said secondary rod determining at least a third cab support point not aligned with said two support points determined by the main U-shaped rod.
