The present invention relates to all terrain vehicles having at least a pair of laterally spaced apart seating surfaces. More particularly, the present invention relates to trail compliant side-by-side all terrain vehicles.

A lower arm 13 of a double wishbone type suspension device includes a substantially linear lateral arm 19 of which one end is connected to a vehicle body and the other end is connected to a knuckle 11 and a compression arm 20 of which one end is connected to the vehicle body and the other end is connected to a middle portion of the lateral arm 19 in the vehicle width direction, the lateral arm 19 is connected to a lower end of a stabilizer link 31 at the inside of a hole portion 19a opened to an upper surface of the lateral arm, and the other end of the compression arm 20 is connected to the lateral arm 19 at bifurcated portions 20a and 20b interposing the hole portion 19a from the inside and the outside in the vehicle width direction.

A suspension system for a vehicle having a frame includes a first interface member configured to be positioned on a first lateral side of the frame and a second interface member configured to be positioned on an opposing second lateral side of the frame. The first interface member and the second interface member are positioned along a common central axis. The suspension system also includes a first swing arm coupled to the first interface member and configured to rotate about the common central axis, a second swing arm coupled to the second interface member and configured to rotate about the common central axis, and a sway bar coupled to the first interface member and the second interface member. The sway bar is positioned coaxially with the common central axis and extends between the first swing arm and the second swing arm.

Agricultural vehicle (V) includes an operator's seat (S), a vehicular structure (C), a wheel support arrangement (100), a front bumper assembly (200), a position and draft control mechanism (30), a brake pedal linkage mechanism (500), a steering mechanism (600) and an exhaust device (700). The operator's seat S is configured to be provided in the vehicle (V) at at least one of a first seating position (Sf) corresponding to a first driving position, and a second seating position (Sr) corresponding to a second driving position, where the second seating position (Sr) is opposite to the first seating position (Sf). The vehicular structure (C) is configured to be moved between at least one lowered position in which each final drive housing (FH) is locked to vehicular structure (C) at corresponding first locking positions, and at least one raised position in which each final drive housing (FH) is locked to vehicular structure (C) at corresponding second locking positions.

A vehicle includes a chassis, an axle, and a sway bar assembly coupled between the chassis and the axle. At least one actuator is configured to move the sway bar assembly relative to the axle to thereby move at least a portion of the chassis toward or away from the axle to adjust an attitude of the vehicle.

A stabilizer for a chassis of a vehicle, having a curved stabilizer body (2) that forms a torsion spring, with a pendulum support (5, 6) and with a connecting section (7, 8, 46, 48), the connecting section (7, 8, 46, 48) is made of a metal and connects the stabilizer body (2) to the pendulum support (5, 6). The connecting section (7, 8, 46, 48) and the stabilizer body (2) are connected to one another by a snap-in and/or latch joint. To reduce assembly effort and expense and, at the same time, to join the stabilizer body (2) to the pendulum support (5, 6) in a secure manner, the stabilizer (1) and the pendulum support (5, 6) are characterized in that the connecting section has an opening (22) in which a plastic bearing shell (11) is arranged for fitting of a joint ball (23) of the pendulum support (5, 6).

There is provided a stabilizer for a vehicle, including a torsion bar fixed to a car body and configured to be rotated about a longitudinal axis of rotation without changing a position, two arm links connected to both ends of the torsion bar, and two drive links connected to each of the two arm links through a ball joint so as to be able to be rotated three-dimensionally, in which the two drive links are configured to, during cornering of the vehicle, adjust a degree of torsion of the torsion bar by rotating about an axis of rotation of a strut assembly or a steering knuckle connected to the two drive links.

An adjustable anti-roll bar arrangement for a vehicle, comprising a bracket configured to be mounted in a fixed relationship to a chassis or a an axle of the vehicle, a linear actuator connected to the bracket, a guided element, the linear actuator being configured to drive the guided element along a first geometrical axis, a supporting shaft mounted to the bracket and defining a second geometrical axis which has a different extension compared to the first geometrical axis, an anti-roll bar, and a stabilizer stay having a first end connected to the anti-roll bar, and a second end movably connected to and supported by the supporting shaft, the second end being also connected to the guided element such that when the linear actuator drives the guided element along the first geometrical axis, the second end follows the motion along the second geometrical axis. The invention also relates to a vehicle comprising such an arrangement.

In each of a first stabilizer device and a second stabilizer device, a stabilizer bar is supported by one or more cylinders, a communication passage via which two fluid chambers of each cylinder are connected is provided, and an opening-closing valve is disposed in the communication passage such that an inter-fluid-chamber communication state where the two fluid chambers communicate with each other and an inter-fluid-chamber shutoff state where the two fluid chambers are shut off from each other are selectively established. Hereby, a vehicle body roll restraining effect is achieved in the inter-fluid-chamber shutoff state while the vehicle body roll restraining effect is cancelled in the inter-fluid-chamber communication state. A linkage mechanism by which those two states of each of the stabilizer devices are changed in conjunction with each other is provided.

The present invention relates to all terrain vehicles having at least a pair of laterally spaced apart seating surfaces.
