In each of a first stabilizer device and a second stabilizer device, a stabilizer bar is supported by one or more cylinders, a communication passage via which two fluid chambers of each cylinder are connected is provided, and an opening-closing valve is disposed in the communication passage such that an inter-fluid-chamber communication state where the two fluid chambers communicate with each other and an inter-fluid-chamber shutoff state where the two fluid chambers are shut off from each other are selectively established. Hereby, a vehicle body roll restraining effect is achieved in the inter-fluid-chamber shutoff state while the vehicle body roll restraining effect is cancelled in the inter-fluid-chamber communication state. A linkage mechanism by which those two states of each of the stabilizer devices are changed in conjunction with each other is provided.

The present disclosure discloses an all-terrain vehicle which includes: a frame, a left-front suspension assembly connected with a left side of the frame and including a left-upper rocker arm and a left-lower rocker arm, the left-upper rocker arm is located above the left-lower rocker arm; a right-front suspension assembly connected with a right side of the frame and including a right-upper rocker arm and a right-lower rocker arm, the right-upper rocker arm is located above the right-lower rocker arm; a lateral stabilizer bar mounted on the frame and arranged above the left-upper rocker arm and the right-upper rocker arm, and a steering gear mounted on the frame and located below the lateral stabilizer bar.

A stabilizing bar for a vehicle, comprising: a central portion, which is elongate; a first attachment portion configured to be attached to a first part of the vehicle secured to a first wheel of the vehicle; and a first bearing configured to be attached to the chassis of the vehicle, the stabilizing bar comprising, between the central portion and the first attachment portion, a first curved portion, the first curved portion being curved along a curve having a radius of curvature which is strictly increasing with increasing distance from the first bearing.

Provided is a stabilizer bush that ensures improved durability. The stabilizer bush (10) comprises: a bush main body (11) formed from a tubular elastic body having a retention hole (12) through which the stabilizer bar (2) passes; a rigid body portion (14) that is fixed to the bush main body (11) and has a higher rigidity than the bush main body (11); and an elastic film (16) that comprises an elastic body and is in contact with a second surface (14b) of the rigid body portion (14). A part of the elastic film (16) is fitted into depressed portions (15a, 15b) that are depressed from the second surface (14b) to a first surface (14a) side.

The ECU of the stabilizer control apparatus determines, based on a high frequency component of a wheel acceleration and a low frequency component of a wheel speed difference, whether a road surface state is a rough road state or a smooth road state. When the road surface state is determined to be the rough road state, the ECU sets a turning determination threshold to a rough road threshold. When the road surface state is determined to be the smooth road state, the ECU sets the threshold to a smooth road threshold. When a turning determination parameter is greater than the threshold, the ECU sets each of first, second, and third cylinders to a lock state to increase rigidity of stabilizers. When the turning determination parameter is smaller than the turning determination threshold, the ECU sets each of the cylinders to a free state to decrease the rigidity of the stabilizers.

Provided is a stabilizer device, including: a pair of bushes made of an elastic material, the pair of bushes having inner peripheral surfaces fixed at two different positions on a cylindrical outer peripheral surface of a stabilizer bar in a circumferential direction of the stabilizer bar, each having an arc sectional shape and being formed as members independent of each other; and at least one case made of one of a resin and a rubber, the at least one case having an inner peripheral surface fixed to an outer peripheral surface of a corresponding one of the bushes and having an arc sectional shape.

A stabilizer adhesive bearing for a vehicle stabilizer may comprise an annular sleeve having a resilient inner contour for coaxial arrangement on the vehicle stabilizer. The resilient inner contour of the annular sleeve may comprise on a side facing the vehicle stabilizer a three-dimensionally structured surface with an adhesive receiving volume. The three-dimensionally structured surface has a maximum roughness depth (R.sub.max) greater than 45 μm and a core roughness depth (R.sub.K) of at least 65% relative to the maximum roughness depth (R.sub.max) of the three-dimensionally structured surface. The maximum roughness depth (R.sub.max) is a total of the reduced tip height (R.sub.pk), the core roughness depth (R.sub.K), and the reduced groove depth (R.sub.vk). Further, the reduced tip height (R.sub.pk), the reduced groove depth (R.sub.vk), and the core roughness depth (R.sub.K) may be determined in accordance with EN ISO 13565-2: December 1997.

A stabilizing bar for a vehicle, comprising: a central portion, which is elongate; a first attachment portion configured to be attached to a first part of the vehicle secured to a first wheel of the vehicle; and a first bearing configured to be attached to the chassis of the vehicle, the stabilizing bar comprising, between the central portion and the first attachment portion, a first curved portion, the first curved portion being curved along a curve having a radius of curvature which is strictly increasing with increasing distance from the first bearing.

A stabilizer is provided with a restriction ring connected to a torsion portion at a connection portion adjacent to a bush. The restriction ring has a body, a female portion, a male portion, and a welded portion. The female portion has gripping portions with a spacing therebetween decreasing in the direction away from a valley bottom portion. The male portion has a neck portion, an expansion portion, and a contraction portion. The welded portion covers at least the range of the contraction portion and the valley bottom portion and melts in the plate thickness direction from the outer peripheral surface.

An antisway system for a vehicle comprises a stabiliser bar, two elastic bushings, and two mounting devices. Each of the two mounting devices includes a pair of mounting brackets for mounting each of the elastic bushings to a body of the vehicle. Each of the two elastic bushings encloses the stabiliser bar and is molded of an elastomeric material and directly mold bonded to the stabiliser bar and to both mounting brackets of the respective mounting device. The two mounting brackets of each mounting device are arranged at a first distance across the stabiliser bar, when the two elastic bushings are in a radially uncompressed state as molded, and at a second distance across the stabiliser bar, that is smaller than the first distance, when the two elastic bushings are in a radially pre-compressed state as mounted to the body of the vehicle.
