Component attachment with a transverse force-supporting surface
10150342 · 2018-12-11 · ·

A component connection for a wheel suspension of a motor vehicle, with a control arm having a mounting, in particular a rubber mounting, at least at one of its ends. An inner sleeve and a connection component, in particular a wheel carrier, are fixed to one another by a fixing element. The fixing element presses a first contact surface of the inner sleeve, in the axial direction, toward the connection component against an abutment surface of the connection component. The connection component has a supporting surface against which a second contact surface of the inner sleeve rests. Furthermore, the supporting surface is inclined relative to the abutment surface in such a manner that transverse forces occurring, in the radial direction in the area of the mounting, can be supported.

WHEEL SUSPENSION OF AN ELECTRICAL DRIVE FOR SUPPORTING A MANUAL MOVEMENT IMPULSE

The disclosure relates to a wheel suspension of a device having an electrical drive of a wheel for supporting a manual movement impulse. The wheel suspension includes a connector piece movably or bendably arranged between a support element or support frame connected to the device and between an interior stator of an electrical drive, wherein the connector piece is held in a starting position due to the gravity of the device, without other influencing forces. The wheel suspension also includes at least one sensor that detects a deflection of the connector piece, and a control device designed such that the control device together with the electrical drive counteracts a deflection or bending of the connector piece.

COIL SPRING FOR VEHICLE SUSPENSION
20180215224 · 2018-08-02 · ·

A coil spring for use in a link-motion-type suspension includes a lower end turn portion, an upper end turn portion, and an effective portion of a cylindrical shape between the lower end turn portion and the upper end turn portion. Further, the coil spring includes a bowing control portion including a taper portion formed in at least one end turn portion of the lower end turn portion and the upper end turn portion. The taper portion has a shape whose thickness is reduced from the middle of the end turn portion toward a distal end of a wire along its length, and bowing of the effective portion is suppressed by absorbing a change in the inclination of a spring seat by the taper portion.
