Abstract

A vehicle cab is resiliently suspended on a vehicle frame. Between the cab and the frame is arranged a device for limiting the mobility of the cab relative to the frame during operation and upon tilting of the cab. The device incorporates two stop surfaces fastened to the cab, and a movement limiter fastened to a stabilizer which is fastened to the frame. The movement limiter extends between the stop surfaces so that it shifts between them upon movement of the link arms. The cab's mobility is limited by the fact that contact occurs between the movement limiter and the stop surfaces.
