The invention relates to a suspension stop with an upper cup and a lower cup arranged to form between them an annular chamber which is delimited laterally by two walls. The chamber having an external section formed between a bearing surface of each wall respectively, the suspension stop having an external sealing element with two complementary bearing surfaces. The external sealing element is mounted to be mobile in the external section between a stable position in which the complementary bearing surfaces are arranged at a distance from the bearing surfaces of the external section and a stressed position by bearing on the external sealing element in which the complementary bearing surfaces are forced against one of the bearing surfaces to ensure the sealing of the external section at the interface thereof.

A second electric suspension device includes a second electromagnetic actuator that is provided between the vehicle body and a wheel of a vehicle and generates a driving force for damping vibration of the vehicle. The second electromagnetic actuator includes a columnar rod member and a casing surrounding the rod member and being provided capable of moving forward and backward relative to the rod member in the axial direction. Casing-side armature coils are provided in the casing in the axial direction, whereas magnets are provided in the rod member in the axial direction in such a manner as to face part of the casing-side armature coils in the casing. The magnets are formed by permanent magnets and electromagnets including rod-side armature coils.

A string-shaped-object binder that binds together a plurality of string-shaped objects, each routed in a slackened state between two vehicle components that move relative to each other, at a predetermined position between the two vehicle components. The string-shaped-object binder includes a fixing retainer that fixedly retains one of the string-shaped objects, and a movement-allowing retainer that retains another one of the string-shaped objects so as to allow the string-shaped object to move in a direction in which an axis of the string-shaped object extends and in directions orthogonal to the axis.

An in-wheel motor unit coupling structure includes an in-wheel motor unit and a shock absorber. The in-wheel motor unit is disposed inside a wheel of a vehicle. The in-wheel motor unit is configured to support the wheel such that the wheel is rotatable. The in-wheel motor unit includes an electric motor that serves as a rotational driving source of the wheel. The shock absorber is coupled to the in-wheel motor unit. The shock absorber is a component of a vehicle suspension. A lower end portion of the shock absorber is fastened to a vehicle center side, in a vehicle width direction, of a motor part so as to be pressed against the motor part outward from the vehicle in the vehicle width direction. The motor part is a part in which the electric motor of the in-wheel motor unit is built.

The invention is directed to a spring strut support mount, including a damper element and a mount housing having a first and a second housing member, wherein the housing members can be threadably engaged by a thread so as to encompass the damping element. The housing members have a detent arrangement which permits a screwing action but prevents a loosening of the thread connection. The invention provides for improving a spring strut support mount such that the housing members cannot loosen from one another during operation. The housing members have a detent arrangement which permits a screwing action but prevents a loosening of the thread connection.

An independent wheel suspension includes a knuckle which is supported on a spring support connected to a vehicle body. The knuckle is connected to the spring support via a knuckle pin and is arranged so as to be mounted rotatably around a longitudinal axis A of the knuckle pin. The transverse control arms are mounted at the upper end and lower end, respectively, of the knuckle pin. The spring support is connected to the knuckle pin so as to be fixed with respect to rotation relative to it so that the knuckle pin connects the spring support, the knuckle and the upper transverse control arm and lower transverse control arm together. The independent wheel suspension has a further safety component which prevents the knuckle pin from rotating in an uncontrolled manner around its longitudinal axis A.

An axle device for the connection of a wheel to the body of a vehicle, having a wheel carrier for the fastening of the wheel, a first link and a second link for force-transmitting connection to the body, which links are both connected to the wheel carrier, furthermore having a supporting link with a carrier portion, which is connected to the wheel carrier, and with a body portion for force-transmitting connection to the body. The supporting link has a spring portion or supporting a spring unit and a damper portion for supporting a damper unit, which spring portion and damper portion are spaced apart from each other in the direction of travel of the body. The body portion has a torsion support portion with fastening freedom in the direction of travel and in the transverse direction of the body and with fastening stiffness in the vertical direction of the body.
