ABSTRACT:
A suspension system for coupled truck axles, comprising a pair of rigid arms each pivotally mounted at one end on a central pivot projecting from the truck frame and at the other end to one of a pair of axles. Each of the rigid arms has an upwardly projecting bracket portion for mounting therebetween resilient means adapted to be deformed by the oscilltions of the rigid arms about the central pivot to receive the load on the truck and compensate for differences in height between the pair of axles. One of the rigid arms on each side of the truck is designed to resist transverse thrust, whereas the other is to a limited extent movable in the transverse direction by means of ball joints.
