Abstract (en)
[origin: WO9847730A1] A suspension system for a vehicle having a body (1) supported on at least one forward pair of laterally spaced wheels and at least one rear pair of laterally spaced wheels, including suspension means for supporting the vehicle body above each said pair of wheels, said suspension means including front and rear fluid support means (4, 5) for supporting at least a portion of the load on the suspension means, at least one of the vehicle support means (4, 5) providing substantially zero roll stiffness for the vehicle, roll moment reaction means (8) for providing location of the body (1) about a substantially level roll attitude, and pitch control means (12) interconnecting the front and rear fluid support means (4, 5), wherein changes in fluid pressure within at least one of said fluid support means are transferable by the pitch control means to the other said fluid support means.
