Steering suspension module including a shock absorber strut, a suspension upright, an outer ring of a wheel hub unit attached integrally to a front face of the suspension upright, and a ball joint for articulation with a control arm; wherein the suspension strut consists of a cup-shaped body made entirely of continuous, sheared and bent metal sheet, and the outer ring is provided integral in one piece with, and radially cantilevered from, a steering arm extending transversely cantilevered from the cup-shaped body, on the side of the cup-shaped body; the shock absorber strut is constrained within a first seat of the cup-shaped body and the ball joint is made as an independent unit constrained integrally with a second seat of the cup-shaped body in a position facing the first seat, the ball joint projecting inferiorly cantilevered from the cup-shaped body.

The invention relates to a suspension unit, in particular for commercial vehicles, including an arm and a support element. The support element includes a support region and a support-side engagement region and comprises as a single piece, and the arm has an arm-side engagement region. A first engaging structure is provided on the arm-side engagement region, the engaging structure being attachable to a second engaging structure located on the support-side engagement region, and the support region includes a securing portion that fixes an air spring bellows and a rolling surface.

A ball joint dust cover is provided. The ball joint dust cover is made of a rubbery elastic material and is provided with a small diameter opening part with which a hard ring is formed. The hard ring is sandwiched by a retainer having a three-sided box shape. The retainer includes a plurality of gaskets contacting the hard ring.

A steering device includes a rack shaft, a pair of tie rods, a rack housing portion, a pinion gear at one end of the rack housing portion, a first supporting portion to support the one end of the rack housing portion, and a second supporting portion to support the other end of the rack housing portion. The second supporting portion is movable in an axial direction of the rack housing portion from a proper position where the second supporting portion fixes the rack housing portion by being mounted on the vehicle body to an escaping position on the side of the pinion gear. The escaping position is a position where a distance from a tip of the tie rod on the other end of the rack housing portion to the second supporting portion is equal to or longer than twice the length of the tie rod.

A suspension joining structure includes: a lower arm having one end fastened to a vehicle body; an assist knuckle having a strut thereon; a fastening unit configured to connect one end of the lower arm and a lower end of the assist knuckle to each other; a suspension fastened to the assist knuckle and rotating independently of the assist knuckle for steering of a wheel; a steering input part connected to the assiste knuckle, and configured such that a steering force is applied to the suspension upon steering; and a rotation transfer unit arranged between the suspension and the steering input part.
