ABSTRACT:
Apparatus for simulating the motion of a vehicle includes a base frame, a subframe which is movable in relation to the base frame, the movements of the subframe simulating the real life movements of the vehicle, and first, second, third and fourth linkage members each connected through a universal joint both to the base frame as well as to the subframe. The first and second linkage members are positioned in a first imaginary plane and the third and fourth linkage members are positioned in a second imaginary plane, the first and second imaginary plane intersecting each other at a first intersection line. The first and third linkage members are positioned in a third imaginary plane and the second and fourth linkage members are positioned in a fourth imaginary plane, the second and fourth imaginary plane intersecting each other at a second intersection line. The first and second intersection lines cross each other at right angles.
