| Abstract: |
Multiaxle vehicles are provided having a superstructure that tilts less than the wheel axle support therefor, comprising a chassis; at least first and second wheel axles supporting the chassis, at least one of which is pivotably mounted on the chassis so as to be tiltable sideways about the pivot mounting in a plane substantially parallel to the sideways tilting plane of the vehicle; a superstructure pivotably mounted on the chassis above the pivot mounting for the tiltable axle, for tilting about the pivot mounting in a plane parallel to the axle tilting plane; and means on one side of the pivot mounting for the tiltable axle, linking the superstructure of the tiltable axle, and pivotably attached to the superstructure on one side of the chassis and to the tiltable axle on the other side of the chassis, the spacing between the pivot mounting of the axle and the pivot attachment of the linking means thereto being less than the spacing between the pivot mounting of the superstructure and the pivot attachment of the linking means thereto, to tilt the superstructure about its pivot mounting less than the tiltable axle when the tiltable wheel axle is tilted sideways.

Having regard to the foregoing disclosure, the following is claimed as the inventive and patentable embodiments thereof:
1. A vehicle having a superstructure characterized by a low sideways tilt relative to a tilting axle, comprising, in combination, a chassis; at least first and second wheel axles supporting the chassis, at least one of which is pivotably mounted on the chassis so as to be tiltable sideways about the pivot mounting in a plane substantially parallel to the sideways tilting plane of the vehicle; a superstructure pivotably mounted on the chassis for tilting about its pivot mounting in a plane parallel to the axle tilting plane; and means on the other side of the pivot mounting for the tiltable axle, linking the superstructure to the tiltable axle, and pivotably attached to the superstructure on one side of the chassis and to the tiltable axle on the other side of the chassis, the spacing between the pivot mounting of the axle and the pivot attachment of the linking means thereto being less than the spacing between the pivot mounting of the superstructure and the pivot attachment of the linking means thereto, to tilt the superstructure less about its pivot mounting when the tiltable wheel axle is tilted sideways.
