Suspension device and all-terrain vehicle
A suspension device and an all-terrain vehicle are provided. The suspension device includes: a first rocker arm having a first end provided with a first position limiting portion; a second rocker arm spaced apart from the first rocker arm; and a steering knuckle arranged between the first end of the first rocker arm and the second rocker arm. The steering knuckle is connected with the first end of the first rocker arm and a first end of the second rocker arm, and the steering knuckle includes a third position limiting portion configured to be fitted with the first position limiting portion. The third position limiting portion is configured to abut against the first position limiting portion when the steering knuckle is moved to a first extreme height position and the all-terrain vehicle has a first maximum steering angle.
APPARATUS FOR MEASURING STEERING ANGLE
An apparatus for measuring the steering angle of a wheel assembly including a suspended wheel mount and at least one suspension arm, the apparatus including a reference bracket, a rotating bracket and an angle sensor, the reference bracket and the rotating bracket each respectively including a measurement end and a mounting end, wherein the measurement ends of the reference and rotating brackets are rotatably coupled about a rotation coupling point such that the brackets can rotate with respect to one another, wherein the mounting end of the rotating bracket is coupled with the suspended wheel mount and the mounting end of the reference bracket is coupled with the suspension arm, and wherein the mounting end of the reference bracket is positioned on a plane defined by a steering axis of the suspended wheel mount and a rotation axis between the suspension arm and the suspended wheel mount.
ATTACHMENT INTERFACE FOR CONNECTING A VEHICLE COMPOSITE COMPONENT
An attachment interface is provided for connecting a vehicle composite component having a plate portion that is made of a fiber reinforced polymer and has a passage extending in a through manner along an axis. The attachment interface provides a metal attachment device, which includes an inner portion engaging the passage and an outer portion defining a connection point suitable to be connected to another vehicle element. The plate portion is axially sandwiched between two layers made of a fiber reinforced polymer composite material selected from the group consisting of BMC (Bulk Molding Compound), LFT (Long Fiber Thermoplastic) and DLFT (Direct Long Fiber Thermoplastic).
A SUSPENSION DEVICE OF A MOTOR- VEHICLE WHEEL
A suspension device of a motor-vehicle wheel includes a support member of the motor-vehicle wheel connectable to the motor-vehicle structure by means of one or more suspension members, a brake disc connected in rotation with the motor-vehicle wheel, a brake caliper associated with the brake disc and a brake disc cover. The brake caliper is formed in a single piece with the support member of the motor-vehicle wheel by means of additive manufacturing technology.
Wheel suspension for a vehicle axle
A wheel suspension for a vehicle axle of a two-track vehicle, having a wheel carrier carrying a vehicle wheel, which is able to be articulated to a vehicle body via a multi-link assembly, which multi-link assembly has a trapezoidal link in the form of a four-point link with two connection points on the body side and two connection points on the wheel carrier side. The trapezoidal link connection points on the wheel carrier side are designed with a higher elastic longitudinal compliance, that is, softer, than the trapezoidal link connection points on the body side.
Hub bracket structure
The present disclosure relates to a hub bracket structure wherein a hub bracket that connects a trailing arm and a hub includes a hub mounting surface, a front connecting surface that connects a front portion of the hub mounting surface and the trailing arm, and a rear connecting surface that connects a rear portion of the hub mounting surface and the trailing arm, each of the front connecting surface and the rear connecting surface is formed in a plate shape extending in up-down and vehicle width directions, and an angle formed by the hub mounting surface and the front connecting surface is greater than an angle formed by the hub mounting surface and the rear connecting surface.
VEHICLE KNUCKLE
A vehicle knuckle 1 includes a main body 10, a strut junction 11 that is positioned at a first side in an extending direction of an axle supported by the main body and fastens a strut damper, and an arm 12 that couples the main body to the strut junction. The vehicle knuckle has a continuous space 17 formed inside the strut junction and the arm. The arm has a first through-hole 17a on a wall 12a that couples an end 10d at the first side of the main body to the strut junction. The first through-hole is formed, with being adjacent to the end at the first side, at the side of the main body with respect to the center of a coupling position of the wall and the main body and a coupling position of the wall and the strut junction and is communicated with the space.
Independent suspension system
An independent suspension system includes a wheel knuckle engaged with a wheel and configured to be rotated in response to a steering input; a motor assembly disposed at one end of the wheel knuckle and configured to rotate the wheel knuckle; an upper arm engaged with the motor assembly; a lower arm having a first end engaged with a vehicle body and a second end engaged with the wheel knuckle; a connection arm configured to be engaged with the upper arm; a rotation pin disposed at a connection portion between the upper arm and the connection arm to enable integral rotation of the upper arm and the connection arm; and a shock absorber disposed between the connection arm and the lower arm and engaged with the connection arm so as to be perpendicular to the connection arm.
Independent suspension system
An independent suspension system for a vehicle includes: a steering unit configured to be controlled to adjust the steering angle of a wheel, a shock absorber engaged with the wheel and configured to absorb impacts applied to the wheel and including a first shock absorber and a second shock absorber, each of which arranged in a forward-rearward direction on opposite side surfaces of the wheel, and a link unit disposed between the shock absorber and the steering unit in order to vary the distance between the wheel and the steering unit. The link unit includes a first upper arm disposed between the first shock absorber and the steering unit, a second upper arm disposed between the second shock absorber and the steering unit, and at least one ground clearance adjustment unit engaged with the first and second upper arms in order to vary the distance between the first and second upper arms.
Independent linear suspension system
A work vehicle includes a chassis. An independent linear suspension system couples to the chassis. The independent linear suspension system includes a driveshaft that couples to the chassis and to a transmission. A wheel hub couples to the driveshaft and rotates a wheel in response to rotation of the driveshaft. A spindle couples to the wheel hub. A spindle carrier couples to the spindle. The spindle carrier defines a first aperture and a second aperture. A first pin extends through the first aperture. A second pin extends through the second aperture. The first pin and the second pin block rotation of the spindle carrier. The spindle carrier moves linearly along the first pin and the second pin.
