ABSTRACT:
A hinge connection for an articulated vehicle having a front section provided with two longitudinally spaced nondriven axles and a rear section provided with a single driven axle. The hinge connection is characterized in that it includes a pair of hinge members which, together with a linkage mechanism, are connected to a transversely extending shaft member so as to provide angular movement of each section of the vehicle about a pair of mutually perpendicular axes while ensuring that the longitudinal center axis of the shaft member always bisects the angle between the front and rear sections when the vehicle is in a turn.
