A vehicle (2) includes a frame (8), a front ground ball (4), a rear ground ball (6), and a grip portion (18) for a rider to grip. The front sphere (4) is rotatable about a first axis that is transverse and fixed with respect to the frame (8), and the rear sphere (6) is rotatable about a plurality of axes. The vehicle (2) further comprises a support (16) pivotably connected to the rear portion of the frame (8). The rear ball (6) is connected to the support (16) for rotation about a second axis that is transverse and fixed with respect to the support (16). The support (16) is pivotable relative to the frame (8) about a third axis extending in a downward and longitudinal direction of the vehicle (2) such that the support (16) is pivotable within a range of positions comprising a neutral position in which the first and second axes are parallel. The vehicle (2) also includes a resilient biasing mechanism (22) configured to resiliently bias the support (16) toward a neutral position.

    一种车辆(2)包括框架(8)、前接地球体(4)、后接地球体(6)和供骑手抓握的握持部分(18)。前球体(4)围绕相对于框架(8)横向且固定的第一轴线可旋转,后球体(6)围绕多个轴线可旋转。车辆(2)还包括支撑件(16),该支撑件可枢转地连接至框架(8)的后部。后球体(6)连接至支撑件(16),用于围绕第二轴线旋转,该第二轴线相对于支撑件(16)是横向的且固定的。支撑件(16)相对于框架(8)围绕第三轴线可枢转,该第三轴线沿车辆(2)的向下和纵向方向延伸,使得支撑件(16)在包括第一轴线和第二轴线平行的中立位置的位置范围内可枢转。车辆(2)还包括弹性偏置机构(22),该弹性偏置机构构造成将支撑件(16)弹性地偏置向中立位置。
