ARTICULATED VEHICLE WITH WHEEL-WALKING PROPULSION Russian patent published in 2019 - IPC B60K17/00 B62D57/00 

FIELD: transportation.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to self-propelled high-crossed vehicles. Articulated vehicle with wheel-walking propulsor includes front and rear body sections, left and right mechanisms of trailing arms levers on each body section. Body sections are connected to each other by means of coupling device providing for rotation of body sections relative to each other around longitudinal axis and in horizontal plane. Every two lengthwise levers are fixed in pairs by one end on axle of each mechanism of lengthwise levers turning. Other ends of lengthwise levers are connected with vehicle driving wheels. Each wheel comprises a rotation drive. Each axis of the longitudinal leverage rotation mechanism has a resiliently damping connection with the body section. If necessary, the axis can be rigidly fixed relative to the body section. Each longitudinal lever can be turned by a specified angle relative to the longitudinal levers rotation mechanism axis associated with it in range of 360°, and if necessary can be rigidly fixed relative to this axis.

EFFECT: higher cross-country capacity, stability, controllability, high speed and safety of vehicle movement.
