The shock-absorbing effect is improved through the shock absorption of the double cylinders. And there are two first cylinders 5 and two second cylinders 8 respectively, and the first cylinders 5 and the second cylinders 8 are respectively installed on both sides of the first cylinder 5 and the second flagpoles 8, which can not only improve the stability of the shock absorption of the front hub 4 and the rear hub 7, but also prevent gravel or sediment from being thrown onto the first cylinder 5 and the second cylinders 8 during the rotation of the front hub 4 and the rear hub 7, preventing the shock absorption of the first cylinder 5 and the second cylinders 8 from being affected.

[0021] In this embodiment, both ends of the first cylinder 5 are rotatably connected to the first connecting member 2 and the second connecting members 3 respectively, and the first cylinder 5, the first connecting member 2 and the second connecting members 3 form a triangle. The first connecting member 2, the second connecting members 3 and the first cylinder 5 form a triangle. The first connecting member 2 is arc-shaped, and the bottom and top of the first connecting member 2 are respectively concave and convex. Through the cooperation of the concave bottom and the convex top of the first connecting member 2 with the first cylinders 5 on both sides of the front hub 4, the installation stability of the front end hub of the vehicle frame 1 is improved.
