also referred to as the torsion beam suspension torsion beam axle suspension, is a type of automobile suspension apparatus for reducing rocking of the vehicle, the vehicle remains stable. In the torsion beam suspension structure, between the two wheels is not directly connected to the hard axis, but through a torsion beam, the torsion beam can be reversed within a certain range. But if the wheels encounter a non-flat surface, the other side of the torsion beam wheel will still have some interference, strictly speaking, torsion beam rear suspension is semi-independent suspension.
a torsion beam suspension of the noun
also called torsion beam suspension torsion beam axle suspension, is a type of automobile suspension apparatus for the vehicle is reduced shaking, remained stable vehicle. In the torsion beam suspension structure, between the two wheels is not directly connected to the hard axis, but through a torsion beam, the torsion beam can be reversed within a certain range. But if the wheels encounter a non-flat surface, the other side of the torsion beam wheel will still have some interference, strictly speaking, torsion beam rear suspension is semi-independent suspension.
2. The torsion beam rear suspension features
torsion beam rear suspension with respect to the independent suspension for comfort to be worse, but the structure is simple and reliable, does not occupy space, and maintenance costs than independence hanging low, so the torsion beam suspension is used in small cars and compact car rear axle.
Although the torsion beam suspension is not conducive to the drive axle of the differential arrangement, but also part of the four-wheel drive SUV, a torsion bar suspension assembly, such as: SUV Luxgen large. 7, Overseas four-wheel drive SX4 and recently listed Buick encore.
3. The major characteristics of the torsion beam model
● SX4 torsion beam rear suspension also uses reed separate arrangement, the rear drive axle through the middle, and large Luxgen 7 except that the design of the torsion beam wheel axis deviation SX4,Located above the torsion beam differential, rear axle ground clearance is larger. After the torsion beam compound
● 7 Na Zhi Jie large suspension, damper and the damper spring are designed separately, and a drive axle from the damper spring Save connected to the drive wheels through vibration. At the same time in order to avoid torsion beam axle differential and the driving position shift down, this will cause the rear axle ground clearance becomes relatively small. After hanging Luxgen torsion beam design close to the rear wheel axis, close to the whole bridge, it has a good bearing capacity.
● Buick encore torsion beam rear suspension with suspension, which arrangement is similar with SX4 Overseas, damping spring and damper arrangement the use of separate, semi- after passing through the axis of the drive wheel and connected between the torsion beam located above the differential and the axle shafts.
