Abstract (en)

[origin: WO8800900A1] A vehicle suitable for various uses in rough terrain. The vehicle has a platform or chassis (11) suspended within a flexible frame (14). The wheels (17, 18) are mounted at opposite ends of side members (23, 24) of the flexible frame (14). The platform connects to the neutral midpoints of the frame rails so as to minimize the movement of the platform or chassis out of the horizontal plane. Rotating drive shafts may enter or pass through hollow pivot pins at the midpoints of the members of the frame (14) thereby remaining on the same plane with one another and isolated from flexing from the frame. The platform may serve as a mounting for a seat (16) of the vehicle. It may also be utilised as a support for the engine (15) of the vehicle.
