摘要： A flat four-link rear axle with favorable dynamic properties is presented. The essential aspect lies in that the lower transverse control arm (1), the upper transverse control arm (2) and a compensating control arm (3) are arranged one behind the other (in the direction of travel), so that a spring (15) for supporting the wheel suspension on the body can be supported on the lower transverse control arm (1). The space created by shifting the transverse control arms makes it possible to use a barrel spring with progressive spring characteristic. The associated shock absorber (16) is arranged between the upper transverse control arm (2) and the compensating control arm (3), and its lower fixing eye (26) is mounted in the lower region of the axle carrier (4) so that the upper end of the shock absorber does not extend very far beyond the upper transverse control arm (2) compared with known solutions. This makes it possible to attach the shock absorber (16) to the lower side of the boot floor, which thus acquires a large width for loading wide objects. Moreover an auxiliary frame for such a rear wheel suspension is presented.

摘要： The invention relates to a level control arrangement for vehicles having air springs (6a) to (6d) and a pneumatically controllable directional valve (26). A residual pressure holding function and an overpressure function are integrated into the directional valve (26). The directional valve (26) is controlled by the air pressure in the air springs (6a) to (6d). The air pressure can be applied via a control line (20) to a control input (24) of the directional valve (26). The air from the air springs (6a) to (6d) is released with the aid of the venting line (28). The venting line (28) is guided separately from the control line (20) through the directional valve (26). In this way, a large air flow can be conducted through the venting line (28) without the static air pressure in the control space (50) of the directional valve (26) being reduced. The venting line is blocked by a stepped piston (44) of the directional valve when no air is to be released from the air springs.

摘要： A hydraulic and pneumatic cylinder (10) for use on a vehicle (100) to improve the handling of the vehicle in a turn or curve. The cylinder repositions the rear wheel (108) of the vehicle in response to a change in the speed of the vehicle. When the vehicle enters a turn and decelerates, the piston of the cylinder moves to the extended position. When the vehicle exits the turn and accelerates, the piston of the cylinder moves to the compressed position.

摘要： A stabilizing strut, in particular for a chassis of a vehicle, in particular a Watt strut, is described, the strut having an elongate strut body which is designed as a profile. The strut body is formed as a profile which is open on one side at least in some sections along its longitudinal direction and the two longitudinal edges of which are connected integrally to each other at least in some sections axially to give a closed profile. Furthermore, a method for producing a stabilizing strut of this type is described.

摘要： A swing suppressing device includes a damper that may switch over between an expansion/retraction enable condition and an expansion/retraction disable condition; and a link mechanism for coupling the damper and the axle with each other. The damper is disposed with its expansion/retraction direction substantially in a horizontal direction between the vehicle body and the axle, and with its one end being connected to the vehicle body and the other end being connected to the axle through the link mechanism. The link mechanism converts the swing motion in the up-and-down direction of the axle and transmits it to the damper.

摘要： An automotive vehicle sway bar assembly includes two opposed sway bar members interconnected by a hydraulically actuated latch operable to effectively decouple the sway bar members. Alternatively, the sway bar assembly may include an integral center section interconnecting the opposed sway bar members and the latch is operable to modify the effective stiffness of the assembly. The latch includes a housing with two opposed latch members axially moveable relative to each other between fully engaged positions for transmitting torque from one sway bar member to the other or partially disengaged to effectively decouple the sway bar members from each other. An anti-backlash lock member is engageable with one sway bar latch member to reduce backlash created by a splined connection when the latch members are fully engaged with each other.

摘要： A wheel suspension system for a vehicle such as a truck trailer. Wheels of the suspension system are attached to stub axles supported by pivoting trailing arm wheel supports. The wheel supports are arranged on a sub-frame which can be slidingly coupled to the underneath of the trailer. Each wheel support is urged apart from the sub-frame by a spring such as an air spring. In one embodiment the air springs are pressurized under the control of an electronic controller. The rotational axes of the wheels are staggered or spaced apart, such that the rotational axes of the wheels on one side of the sub-frame are not coincident with the rotational axes of the wheels on the other side of the sub-frame.

摘要： A front wheel suspension system for a vehicle includes a wheel carrier for supporting a wheel, an upper control arm for mounting to an upper end of the wheel carrier, a lower control arm for mounting to a lower end of the wheel carrier, and a strut assembly for mounting on the lower control arm to absorb up-and-down impacts transmitted from the wheel, the strut assembly being inclined in a direction and designed to apply damping force to the lower control arm when the vehicle wheel bumps. A device is provided to generate a reacting force acting against the damping force of the strut assembly, the reacting force being applied to the lower control arm to compensate for the damping force.

摘要： A vehicle suspension and a control arm therefor are provided. The control arm includes first and second members each defining a recess corresponding to a portion of the outer surface of a vehicle axle. The members are welded or otherwise coupled together to surround at least a majority of the axle thereby enabling installation of the control arm without sliding the arm onto the axle. Each of the members includes a pair of sidewalls and a lateral wall joining, and integral with, the sidewalls. The sidewalls are angled relative to an axis of the axle to provide sufficient clearance for a spring assembly mounted to the control arm and centering of spring loads. The two sidewalls of one member may further include aligned apertures configured to receive a tube on which a shock absorber may be mounted. The tube enables strong and accurate mounting of the shock absorber.

摘要： A steering and suspension arrangement for agricultural vehicle includes a horizontal axle transverse to the direction of movement with the ground wheel mounted at each end of the axle. The length of the axle can be adjusted by extending and retracting end portions of the axle relative to a centre section of the axle. Each end of the axle carries a wheel hub on a suspension arrangement defined by an upper plate, a lower plate, a first channel member attached to the lower plate and a second channel member attached to the upper plate with the channel members facing each other and connected by two parallel pivoting links. Between the plates is mounted a gas bag spring. The frame is divided into a front portion and a rear portion which are held against steering movement but can pivot, each relative to the other about a horizontal axis along the direction of travel to accommodate twisting beyond the limited suspension movement. The steering is effected by steering movements of the front wheels controlled by two separate cylinders which are arranged in a hydraulic circuit which automatically compensates for any fluid leakage to maintain the wheels aligned.
