A method of manufacturing a damping device, notably for a steering tie rod, the said device comprising a rod which extends along a main axis and which is intended to be connected to a first mechanical component, a securing portion which surrounds the said rod and which is intended to be connected to a second mechanical component, and a sleeve made of elastomeric material which is arranged between the rod and the fixing bushing so as, through elastic deformation thereof, to allow at least axial movement of the fixing bushing with respect to the rod, in which method the fixing bushing is offset axially with respect to the rod to force the elastic deformation of the sleeve and the introduction of a corresponding preload, then the sleeve is locked so as to keep it, when the device is at rest, in a state of permanent axial elastic deformation and preload.

The present application relates to an adjustment bushing, a steering column and a vehicle. The adjustment bushing comprises: a frame provided with a linear track that allows an adjusting bolt to slide left and right; and damping structures respectively disposed near both ends of the linear track and including convex hulls extending from upper and lower inner sides of the frame into the linear track, wherein, when the adjusting bolt slides to both ends of the linear track to extreme positions of the linear track, the convex hulls are squeezed between the adjusting bolt and the frame to play a damping role. The adjustment bushing can rebound after the endurance adjustment, has excellent noise reduction and energy absorption effect, and improves the durability and service life of the adjustment bushing.

It is provided a vibration damper system for a steering wheel arrangement of a motor vehicle, which is provided for arrangement on a steering wheel element of the steering wheel arrangement. The vibration damper system comprises a vibration damping mass for damping the vibration of the steering wheel arrangement, an elastic bearing element which comprises a fastening element for fastening the elastic bearing element to one of bearing element and vibration damping mass, and a fastening means for fastening to the other of steering wheel element and vibration damping mass, wherein the elastic bearing element sectionally rests against the fastening means.

An identical steer control mechanism of a radial bar-link trapezoidal swing arm, a method and a multi-wheel vehicle thereof are disclosed. The radial bar-link trapezoidal swing arm is in a right triangle shape, and in combination with a two-dimensional composite control transmission arm of a cross-shaped groove formed by a transverse groove and a vertical groove, an elliptical gauge is shaped; the longitudinal cosine displacement is controlled by the sliders in the transverse groove, and the transverse sine displacement can be controlled by connecting the sliders in the vertical groove after the right-angle end bearing is hinged to connecting rods, the end bearing on the two-dimensional composite control transmission arm, namely the key control point bearing, draws a deflection elliptical trajectory, and the hinged slider to the key control point bearing is connected with a vector control swing arm sliding slot to generate a steering angle βi.

A noise reduction apparatus for an electric power steering system may include a worm wheel rotatably and integrally coupled to a steering shaft connected to a steering wheel; a worm gear shaft to be rotatably operated by rotational force of an electric motor and formed with a worm gear to be meshed with the worm wheel; a tilt bearing provided between the worm gear shaft and the electric motor to rotatably support one end of the worm gear shaft; a support bearing for rotatably supporting the other end of the worm gear shaft; a plurality of pressing pins for pressing the support bearing; and a plurality of elastic members for elastically supporting the plurality of pressing pins respectively.

A modular chassis is provided for an off-road vehicle to improve assembly, servicing, and repairing of a drivetrain of the off-road vehicle. The modular chassis includes a chassis to support components of the off-road vehicle. A front frame module couples with a front of the chassis, and a rear frame module couples with a rear of the chassis. The front frame module supports lower suspension arms of the off-road vehicle by way of inboard bushing joints. The front frame module supports at least a steering gear and a front differential of the off-road vehicle. The rear frame module is a tube-frame structure that supports components of the off-road vehicle. A lower portion of the rear frame module extends rearward and acutely upward to a top frame member that couples with upper side portions of the chassis. Several cross-members impart structural integrity to the rear frame module.
