    摘要: A dual-mode suspension system using hydraulic dampers is disclosed. One or more dampers on each side of the four-wheel suspension system are coupled to a respective damper on the other side via a damper valve. One or more leaf springs may be arranged between the leading links coupled to some of the dampers, and trailing links coupled to other of the dampers. The suspension system may advantageously engage, lock, or partially disengage the respective dampers connected by the valve on each side of the system. Manipulating the valve to control engagement of the dampers, which may depend on the speed and related issues, provides control over whether heave motions should be separated from roll. In another embodiment, one or more single or double acting hydraulic cylinders may be used to engage dampers.

    摘要: A transverse leaf spring arrangement of a chassis axle of a motor vehicle having a transverse leaf spring which is mounted via two outer bearing members on, in each case, one wheel support and via two central bearing members on a vehicle body. The central bearing members have, in each case, one torque generation apparatus, the torque directions of which run parallel to a longitudinal axis of the motor vehicle. The torque generation apparatus capable of generating a torque which is variable at least in a manner which is dependent on a deflection at the outer bearing members.

    摘要: A suspension that has particular application for a front axle of a heavy vehicle includes suspension arms that are better able to withstand increased brake torques that are expected to soon be mandated in heavy vehicles. In one embodiment, the suspension includes a plurality of arms pivotally connected to a vehicle frame, and rigidly secured to an axle. By utilizing the plurality of arms, simple spring elements are better able to withstand the increased brake torques.

    摘要: A stabilizing mechanism and a method of mounting the stabilizing mechanism are provided. The stabilizing mechanism is supported on modified overload stops which are mounted onto the truck frame through mounting holes drilled by the truck's manufacture and intended as mountings for conventional overload stops; in addition, linkages fixedly coupled to the longitudinal ends of the torsion bar directly couple each end of the torsion bar to one of the leaf springs of the truck frame. Differential compression of the leaf springs twists the torsion bar which produces a reactive torque at the longitudinal ends of the torsion bar. In response to this reactive torque, the linkages fixedly coupled to the torsion bar transfer the torque to a linear force which opposes the differential compression of the leaf springs. In order to couple the leaf springs to the torsion bar linkages, the top brackets in the bracket assemblies which secure the leaf springs to the wheel axle of the vehicle are replaced by modified top brackets. The modified brackets include integral pedestals which provide mountings for the torsion bar linkages. Both the modified overload stops and the modified top brakcets replace the original stops and brackets without any need for modifying the vehicle frame or the bracket assemblies securing the leaf springs to the vehicle's wheel axle.

    摘要: A vehicle suspension system for a transverse pair of vehicle wheels comprising a pivotal linkage connected to each wheel and torsion bars connected to each pivotal linkage and each bar being mounted on the vehicle chassis. The torsion bars are interconnected at their ends remote from the respective connections to the pivotal linkages by an elongate lamina member or members, the member or members lying in the plane of the torsion bars or in a plane parallel to the plane of the torsion bars.
