A strut bearing assembly includes: a first case coupled to an insulator mounted on a body of the vehicle, and having a strut disposed therethrough; a second case mounted under the first case in a top-to-bottom direction of the vehicle, configured to rotate relatively to the first case, and having the strut disposed therethrough; and a center plate disposed between the first and second cases, and configured to support the first case to rotate relative to the second case. The center plate has a ring shape with a hollow portion, and includes an inclined portion that is inclined downward toward an outside in a radial direction based on a central axis of the strut.

A strut mount including: a first mounting member configured to be attached to a shock absorber; a second mounting member configured to be attached to a vehicle body; a main rubber elastic body elastically connecting the first and second mounting members to each other; a fluid-filled zone whose interior is filled with a non-compressible fluid such that a vibration damping effect is obtained based on a flow action of the fluid; and an orifice passage through which the fluid filled in the fluid-filled zone is induced to flow. A tuning frequency of the orifice passage is set to a frequency of a vibration transmitted during lockup of an automobile from a drive train of the automobile to the vehicle body via the shock absorber.

A top mount assembly includes an insulator coupled to a vehicle body; an upper housing coupled to the insulator; a lower housing coupled to the upper housing; a bearing arranged between the upper housing and the lower housing; an inner seal member comprising a seal frame coupled to the upper end portion of the lower housing in a radially inward direction of the bearing, a seal base portion coupled to the seal frame and a plurality of inner seal lips. The seal frame includes a sleeve coupled to the upper end portion of the upper housing and a flange extending from an upper end of the sleeve in a radially outward direction. The seal base portion is coupled to the flange of the seal frame. The upper end of the inner seal lips is disposed to be spaced apart from the inner sidewall of the upper housing.

An electric vehicle frame strut tower to body structure interface bracket is disclosed. An example electric vehicle disclosed herein includes a frame, a battery pack supported by the frame, a body coupled to the frame, a strut tower coupled to the frame to support the body and absorb road surface impacts on the electric vehicle, and a strut tower interface bracket to couple the strut tower to the body.

Disclosed herein is an adjustable suspension mount system that includes a first mount link pivotally attached to a mount feature and extending to a device used to support a load on a first wheel, the first mount link pivotally attached to the device. The mount feature is attached to or integrated into the frame of the vehicle. The system further includes a second mount link pivotally attached to at least one of the mount feature and a second mount feature, the second mount link extending to the first mount link, the second mount link pivotally attached to the first mount link. Further disclosed is a vehicle including the system, and a kit including the components to provide the system for a vehicle.

Electromechanical apparatuses for controlling vehicle suspension settings. Described herein are electromechanical apparatuses for controlling wheel alignment (e.g., camber, castor and/or toe). In particular, described herein are camber adjusting apparatuses for electromechanically adjusting camber or camber and toe that may be retrofitted onto existing vehicle suspensions.

An upper raceway ring has an inward flange portion. A lower raceway ring has an outward flange portion. An upper case has an outwardly projecting piece projecting in the radially outward direction toward an end surface of the inward flange portion from a surface facing the end surface. A lower case has an inwardly projecting piece projecting in the radially inward direction toward an end surface of the outward flange portion from a surface facing the end surface. The end surface of the upper raceway ring comes into contact with the outwardly projecting piece of the upper case, to allow the upper raceway ring to be held by the upper case. The end surface of the lower raceway ring comes into contact with the inwardly projecting piece of the lower case, to allow the lower raceway ring to be held by the lower case.

A synthetic resin-made sliding bearing 1 include a synthetic resin-made upper casing 2, a synthetic resin-made lower casing 3, and a thrust sliding bearing piece 4 serving as a synthetic resin-made thrust sliding bearing interposed between the lower casing 3 and the upper casing 2 fitted over the lower casing 3.

A shock absorber assembly includes a pressure tube having an upper end and a lower end and defining an interior, a rod guide disposed adjacent the upper end, a first compression valve assembly adjacent the lower end, a rod operatively coupled to the pressure tube having a first end and a second end, an extender coupled to the second end of the rod, a piston assembly coupled to the extender between the rod guide and the first compression valve assembly with the piston assembly disposed within the interior and slideably coupled to the pressure tube, with the piston assembly dividing the interior into an upper and a lower working chamber, a second compression valve assembly coupled to the extender between the piston assembly and the first compression valve assembly, and a cup disposed within the lower working chamber and defining a bore shaped to receive the second compression valve assembly.

A rotation induction device for a vehicle includes: an upper case formed of a synthetic resin material, and having a piston rod passing therethrough; a lower case formed of a synthetic resin material and disposed under the upper case, wherein the piston rod passes through the lower case; a center plate formed of a synthetic resin material, disposed between the upper case and the lower case such that the piston rod passes through the center plate, and configured to induce the rotation of either one or both of the upper case and the lower case; and an inflow prevention part formed on either one or both of the upper case and the lower case, and configured to block an inflow of foreign matter through the piston rod.
