Abstract

976,745. Adjusting vehicles' height. CAPE ENGINEERING CO. Ltd., and T. G. TURNER April 17, 1961 [April 19, 1960], No. 13716/61. Divided out of 976,744. Heading B7D. A vehicle which may be lowered to the ground has a pair of wheels 10 mounted on arms 12 sprung by a pair of coaxial torsion bars 13, 13a on the inner ends of which are mounted levers 17, 17a by which the torsion bars may be rotated together. Preferably the levers are pivoted at 18 to a fork 19 on the end of the piston-rod 20 of a pressure fluid piston and cylinder device 21, 22, the pressure fluid being either a gas above or below atmospheric pressure or a liquid. All four wheels of a vehicle may be mounted as above the two piston and cylinder devices being operable together or independently.
