More Information
Summary:A laterally tiltable, multitrack vehicle is disclosed. The vehicle includes a vehicle body and at least three wheels. The first and the second wheels are assigned to a common axle to form a first wheel pair. Each wheel of the wheel pair is rotatably mounted on a wheel support. The wheel supports of the wheel pair are connected to one another in an articulated manner via a double lever which is mounted rotatably at a first pivot point on the vehicle body. The wheel supports of the wheel pair also are connected to one another in an articulated manner via a parallel trailing arm, which runs parallel to the double lever and is configured to transmit lateral tilting of one wheel support to the other wheel support. Each wheel support of the wheel pair is configured to connect in a force-transmitting manner to the vehicle body via a link at at least one second pivot point which is spaced apart from the first pivot point for transmitting lateral tilting of the wheel support to the vehicle body, wherein the link forms an oblique angle with respect to the double lever.
