What is the suspension type?

Automotive suspension frame is the general term for all force transmitting means connected between (or monocoque) with an axle (or wheel), is one of the important parameters affecting the car comfortable. Vehicle Suspension elastic member includes three parts, shock absorbers and power transmission devices. The rear suspension of the type of front suspension to be more than because of the different ways of driving axle determine the presence or absence, and the body weight related. There are two kinds of link type and swing arm.

1. Noun type rear suspension

is a general term for all automotive suspension frictional connection means between the frame (or monocoque) and the axle (or wheel), it is one of the important parameters of automotive comfort. Vehicle Suspension elastic member includes three parts, shock absorbers and power transmission devices. The rear suspension of the type of front suspension to be more than because of the different ways of driving axle determine the presence or absence, and the body weight related. There are two kinds of link type and swing arm.

2-link basic description

FR-link in the main drive system, and integration of the left and right rear axle used in the case (rigidly connected to the intermediate differential) past use more leaf springs supporting the vehicle body, now of improving driving comfort considerations, the use of a multi-link and the rear swing arm to say, good ride and using a coil spring. Each link in the left and right sides of a pair of divided upper link and lower link, as the lateral force transmitting means (driving force automobiles), and then usually with a lateral thrust rods together form five-link. Lateral thrust rod connected at one end of the vehicle body, one end connected to an axle, which purpose is to prevent the axle (or body) lateral traverse. When the axle moves up and down due to turbulence, the transverse contacts and the thrust rod to be connected to the vehicle body painting arc axis exercise, if the pivot angle over the General Assembly significant lateral relative movement between the axle and the vehicle body, the lower arm similar principles, but also the transverse thrust rod designed to be relatively long to reduce the pivot angle.

3. The basic formula described arm

swing arm, This way only the intermediate axle differential is fixed, the left and right axle universal joint is provided between the differential and the wheels, and its swing center, a Y-arm at the connection between the wheels and the frame. “Y” is rigidly connected to one end of the individual wheels, and the other two end points connected to the frame and forms a rotation axis. Depending on whether the rotation axis is parallel to the axle, the swing arm suspension arm is divided into all-drag type drag-type and semi-arm, parallel dragging the whole formula, called semi-drag type non-parallel.
