A levelling system for a mobile object
The invention relates to a levelling system (Fig.1, 10) for a mobile object 50 having a platform 54, the levelling system comprising a level detector 20 adapted to sit on or parallel with said platform, wherein the level detector comprises at least one sensor (Fig.1, 24) to detect a level condition of the platform and a drive controller (Fig.1, 26) which communicates with the sensor in order to receive level condition information of the platform. The drive controller controls a drive system 56 in response to said level condition information. It is also claimed that the drive controller controls a drive motor or an engine management system according to the level condition. The drive system has a motor (Fig.4, 156) which drives rollers (Fig.4, 156a) that can engage with the wheels 55 of the mobile object. The mobile object may be a trailer, caravan, portable toilet, leisure vehicle or the like. The drive system may be remotely controlled using wireless communication technology. The levelling system may comprise at least one ramp or wedge 30.
