It is well known in the art to support cabs or axles with air bellows. However, in conventional air suspensions, the lower surface of the air bellows is fixed to a fixed surface and supported by the upper surface, so if the internal pressure of the air bellows is changed to adjust ride comfort, the overall height and posture of the vehicle will change. This was not desirable in terms of performance. Therefore, in the past, it was not possible to adjust the riding comfort.

Figures 3 and 4 show the body 11 and the axle 10.
This is a case where support is given. In this case, the support member 1 is fixed to the body 11, the air bellows 2a and 2b are arranged on both the upper and lower surfaces of the support member 1, and the upper surface of the upper air bellows 2a is fixed with the fixing member 7a fixed to the axle 10. , the lower surface of the lower air bellows 2b is fixed on the axle 10. FIG. 5 shows another design modification example in which the axle 10 is used as a support member, air bellows 2a and 2b are arranged on both upper and lower surfaces of the axle 10, and the upper surface of the upper air bellows 2a is a body 11.
The lower surface of the lower air bellows 2b is fixed on a fixing member 7a fixed to the body 11.

Since the present invention has the above-described structure, the object to be elastically supported, that is, the cab 8 or the body 11, is supported by two upper and lower air bellows 2a, 2b.
It will be held at Furthermore, even if the internal pressure of the two upper and lower air bellows 2a and 2b is changed, the lower air bellows 2b tries to push up, but the upper air bellows 2a cannot be pushed downward because its upper surface is fixed. The height and posture of the cab 8 or the body 11 do not change.

As described above, the present invention provides a suspension using air bellows that is conventionally known, in which both upper and lower surfaces of a support member integrated with a movable body are supported by elastics with two upper and lower air bellows, and the upper surface of the upper air bellows is connected to the lower air bellows. It has a special arrangement structure in which the lower surface of the bellows is fixed to a fixed surface, and a throttle valve is provided in the piping path of each air bellows, so that the internal pressure of each air bellows can be freely adjusted.
This has the advantage that ride comfort can be adjusted, which was not possible in the past, without changing the overall height or posture of the vehicle.
