Claim 1
Independent Claim
198 words
A stabilizing arrangement in terrain-going vehicles having a driver''s cabin and a rearly branched framework where the stem of the branches, constituting the frame of the vehicle, at its front end is supported by a front wheel shaft, and the branches, constituting longitudinal legs, have each of their ends supported by a different rear shaft for a bogie bar, the improvement wherein the rear end of the frame of the vehicle serves as a support for a fundament plate for receiving operation equipment, and the two longitudinal legs are pivoted in alignment with each other at each side of the frame; a separately operable hydraulic jack forming an upstanding and longitudinally variable supporting bar between each leg and an associated point on the plate in order to enable an individual raising and lowering of the rear shafts, the front part of the frame, supporting the front wheel shaft, being freely rotatable around its longitudinal axis, whereby it will be possible, on one hand, to straighten up the vehicle including the fundament plate when driving along a lateral slant in the terrain and, on the other hand, to enable a simple and gentle surmounting of obstacles on the ground.
