Abstract

See full text

A tilting suspension system is provided for two wheels of a vehicle disposed on a common axle with a module comprising a rigid frame adapted to be firmly fixed to the chassis of the vehicle so as to be tilted together with the whole vehicle. The tilting of the rigid frame is obtained as a result of the counter torque arising when activating actuating means firmly fixed to the rigid frame, with the tilting means being pivotable connected to shock absorbers. The tilting module further comprises suspension arms usually connected to the rigid frame, with said suspension arms supporting, in cooperation with supporting uprights, the two wheels thus allowing both tilting and steering of the two wheels. Moreover, electric motors may be received in the hubs of the wheels, thus allowing the realization of driving, steering and tilting module adapted to be used either in hybrid vehicles or electrically driven vehicles.
