Abstract

The present disclosure relates to a suspension system (200) that is installed on a vehicle and is capable of performing functions including park locking, returning momentum, tilt limiting and rear suspension. The suspension system (200) comprises a rear suspension mounting structure (302), a rear suspension swing arm (306), a tilt limiting structure (201), and a tilt restoring structure (202). The rear suspension swing arm (306) is pivotally coupled to the rear suspension mounting structure (302) and configured to rotate about the rear suspension mounting structure (302) in response to a tilting movement of the vehicle. The tilt limiting structure (201) is configured to mechanically inhibit the tilting movement when a tilt angle of the vehicle exceeds an instantly-calculated tilt angle value. The tilt restoring structure (202) is configured to apply a force in response to the tilting movement.
