Embodiment Construction

[0106] The present technology will be described with respect to a four-wheeled off-road vehicle 10 having two side-by-side seats and a steering wheel. However, it is contemplated that some aspects of the present technology may be applicable to other types of vehicles, such as, but not limited to, off-road vehicles with handlebars and straddle seats (i.e., all-terrain vehicles (ATVs)) Wheels Buggy.

[0107] The general characteristics of buggy 10 will be relative to Figures 1 to 5 to describe. The vehicle 10 has a frame 12 , two front wheels 14 connected to the front of the frame 12 by a front suspension assembly 16 , and two rear wheels 18 connected to the frame 12 by a rear suspension assembly 20 .

[0108] The frame 12 defines a central cockpit area 22 within which a driver's seat 24 and a passenger seat 26 are positioned. In an embodiment of the present invention, the driver's seat 24 is positioned on the left side of the vehicle 10 and the passenger seat 26 is position...

Abstract

A vehicle has a frame, a driver and passenger seats, two front and two rear suspension assemblies, two front and two rear wheels, and a motor operatively connected to the at least two wheels. Each rear suspension assembly has a trailing arm having a front end pivotally connected to the frame; a knuckle pivotally connected to a rear portion of the trailing arm; a lower link having a laterally outward end pivotally connected to the trailing arm and a laterally inward end pivotally connected to the frame; an upper link having a laterally outward end pivotally connected to the trailing arm and a laterally inward end pivotally connected to the frame; and a toe link having a laterally outward end pivotally connected to the knuckle and a laterally inward end pivotally connected to the frame.

Description

[0001] cross reference [0002] With respect to the United States of America, this application is a continuation of U.S. Patent Application No. 15 / 010,773, filed January 29, 2016, which claims the priority. technical field [0003] The present technology relates to rear suspension assemblies for off-road vehicles. Background technique [0004] There are various types of vehicles mainly used in off-road conditions. One such type is the side-by-side buggy. The name "side-by-side" refers to the seating arrangement of a vehicle in which the driver and passenger are seated side by side. Some side-by-side SUVs also have a second row of seats to accommodate one or more additional passengers. These vehicles typically have an open cockpit, roll cage and steering wheel. [0005] To be able to operate in off-road conditions, side-by-side off-road vehicles need to be able to handle bumpy terrain to operate on a variety of surfaces including, but not limited to, sand, mud, and mud....
