The first left support arm (17) has first left wheels (19, 21) respectively on both sides thereof, and the first right support arm (26) has first right wheels (28, 30) respectively on both sides thereof. The second support arm (36) has a second left wheel (38) and a second right wheel (40) respectively on both sides thereof.
Bogie for a forestry vehicle and vehicle with at least one bogie axle
A bogie for a forestry vehicle is disclosed that includes a bogie body, which has a first wheel hub for arrangement of a first wheel and a second wheel hub for arrangement of a second wheel. The bogie includes a swing arm pivotably hinged at a first end portion on the bogie body, and at a second end portion has a wheel hub for arrangement of a center wheel between the first wheel and the second wheel. The bogie further includes a spring and/or damper element, which at one end portion is hinged on the bogie body and at the other end portion is hinged on the second end portion of the swing arm and by means of which the swing arm is capable of being applied with force. A vehicle, in particular a forestry vehicle, is also disclosed having at least one bogie axle with such a bogie.
SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR VEHICLE SUSPENSIONS
A suspension element includes a housing, a first joint, and a second joint. The housing is configured to couple a tractive element assembly to a vehicle. The housing has a first end configured to engage a portion of the vehicle and a second end configured to interface with the tractive element assembly. The first joint includes a first actuator and a first resilient member. The first actuator is configured to facilitate linear extension and retraction of the suspension element. The second joint includes a second actuator and a second resilient member. The second actuator is configured to facilitate rotational movement of the suspension element. The first resilient member and the second resilient member are configured to support a static load of the vehicle.

Walking beam suspension
A walking beam suspension for use with an agricultural vehicle or robot having a chassis and a plurality of wheels on opposite sides of the chassis. The walking beam suspension generally includes first and second walking beams pivotably connected to the opposite sides of the chassis and a dynamic coupling connected between the walking beams and the chassis. As the vehicle traverses the surface the wheels encounter deviations. The walking beams pivot relative to each other and to the chassis to maintain the wheels in contact with the surface. The dynamic coupling dynamically extends and retracts connections between the walking beams and dynamically pivots and linearly moves a connection to the chassis to reduce the transfer of movement caused by the deviations to the chassis.
