ABSTRACT:
A suspension system has a link mechanism, disposed between a wheel support and a car body, for suspending the wheel support from the body so as to allow a wheel, related to steering, to swing about a center axis relative to the body. The link mechanism is caused to change a height of an instantaneous center of a swing of the wheel from the ground according to degrees of turn, such as steered angles, so as to maintain a height of the instantaneous center at a substantially fixed height from the ground.
