Abstract
An apparatus has: a chassis; wheel assemblies at opposed sides of the chassis, each wheel assembly having: a ground engaging wheel; a wheel mount; a control arm pivotally connected between the wheel mount and the chassis; and an actuator pivotally connected between the wheel mount of the ground engaging wheel and the chassis; in which the actuator is operable to, in use, cause the ground engaging wheel to: pitch down with increasing camber from an upright position into a facedown position to lower the chassis; and pitch up with decreasing camber from the facedown position into the upright position to raise the chassis. A method involves lowering the chassis by operating the actuators to pitch the ground engaging wheels down into the facedown position; and raising the chassis by operating the actuators to pitch the ground engaging wheels up into the upright position.
