ABSTRACT:
A suspension for the operator's platform of agricultural or industrial vehicles uncouples the platform from vibrations of the vehicle chassis, in particular vertical vibrations acting in the vehicle's fore-and-aft plane. To do this, at least one essentially horizontally and laterally aligned torsion rod is fixed with its ends between the platform and a first end of a pair of links. The second end of each link is pivotally mounted to the vehicle chassis, with the pivot axis parallel to the torsion rod axis. The torsion rod is supported in the vehicle platform by a bearing which is close to the link.
