A walking vehicle the vehicle frame comprises a vertical tube adjacent to the two front wheels, and a lateral tube at the top end of the vertical tube. The rear wheel is connected to a left pedal and a right pedal. The central rod passes through the lateral tube. The left handlebar sheathes and the right handlebar sheathes each one end of the central rod. The left handlebar are connected to the left pedal. The right handlebar are connected to the right pedal. The gear set comprises a first bevel gear mounted at the right handlebar, a second bevel gear mounted at the right connecting rod, and a connecting gear with a mounting rod passing through the central rod thereof and engaging the first bevel gear and the second bevel gear. This has the effect of facilitating the operation of the walking vehicle for improved handling maneuverability and stability.

A tiltable vehicle has a pair of front wheels coupled to a tiltable chassis by a tilt linkage, such that the pair of front wheels and the chassis are configured to tilt in unison with respect to a roll axis of the chassis. The tilt linkage includes a four-bar linkage having a pair of upper bar segments coupled to the chassis at spaced-apart respective inboard joints. In some examples, the inboard joints of the upper bar segments are each disposed outboard of a central chassis joint of a lower bar of the tilt linkage. An orientation sensor is configured to detect directional information regarding a net force vector applied to the chassis, and a tilt actuator operatively coupled to the chassis and configured to selectively tilt the chassis. A controller is configured to selectively control the tilt actuator based on the directional information from the orientation sensor.

The motor vehicle (1) comprises at least one rear driving wheel (5) and two front steered wheels (7′, 7″). A tilting four bar linkage (11) allows the motor vehicle to perform a tilting movement, for example, when cornering. Support arms (21′, 21″) for front steered wheels (7′, 7″), which rotate around steering axes (21A′, 21A″) and are joined to each other by a steering bar (23), are associated with the tilting four bar linkage. Each wheel is constrained to the respective support arm with the interposition of a suspension (33; 33″). A tilting locking device comprises a brake (53′, 53″) which locks the springing movement of the respective suspension and the tilting movement of the four bar linkage.

A leaning vehicle includes a vehicle body, a left front wheel, a right front wheel, a steering rod, suspension, a first steering part, second steering part, a pantograph mechanism. The first steering part is disposed a vehicle body side respect to the suspension and transmits rotational a steering force by a driver. The second steering part is disposed the front wheel side respect to the suspension and transmits the rotational steering force to the steering rod. The pantograph mechanism is disposed separately from the suspension, transmits the rotational steering force from the first steering part to the second steering part, and maintains state of transmission of the rotational steering force by deforming in accordance with changes in relative positions of the first steering part and the second steering part.

A tilting vehicle includes a frame unit, a tilting mechanism and two front wheels. The frame unit includes a head tube extending generally along an up-down direction, and a main frame detachably connected to the head tube. The tilting mechanism includes one crossbar pivotally connected to the head tube and extending along a left-right direction, and two connecting rods extending along the up-down direction, being opposite to each other along the left-right direction, and being pivotally connected to opposite ends of the one crossbar, respectively, such that the connecting rods are movable along the up-down direction relative to the head tube. The front wheels are rotatably mounted to the connecting rods, respectively.
