A suspension device (rear suspension (10)) for vehicles is provided which includes a damper (40), a shaft (50) pivotably supporting an end of the damper (40), and a bush (60) including a cylindrical elastic member fitted onto the outer circumference of the shaft (50). The axis (C2) of the bush (60) is disposed along a line of intersection between an imaginary first plane (S1) and an imaginary second plane (S2), or along a line parallel to the line of intersection. The first plane (S1) is orthogonal to the axis (C1) of the damper (40) when a stroke position of a wheel (24) is a first position relative to the vehicle body (80) in the vertical direction of a vehicle body (80). The second plane (S2) is orthogonal to the axis (C1) of the damper (40) when the stroke position of the wheel (24) is a second position.

A suspension assembly for a vehicle may have a first end for pivotal mounting to a structural member of the vehicle and a second end opposite the first end for attachment of a damping arrangement and a stub axle. The suspension assembly may include first and second shell components that are welded together to form a substantially hollow body between the first and second ends.

A chassis control arm for a wheel suspension has a control arm body, a spring abutment and an actuator which is arranged between the control arm body and the spring abutment and with which the position of the spring abutment relative to the control arm body can be adjusted. The actuator comprises a lifting gear which is configured as a movement thread and which includes a lifting spindle on which the spring abutment is arranged or on which the spring abutment is axially movably mounted.

A wheel suspension for a motor vehicle includes a wheel linkage. The wheel linkage has a bearing region and a spring element. The wheel linkage has a first linkage arm with a first connecting element. A second linkage arm has a second connecting element. The second linkage arm has a first longitudinal region having the second connection element and a second longitudinal region attached to the first longitudinal region and disposed between the bearing region and the first longitudinal region. The second longitudinal region is offset in relation to the bearing region and the first longitudinal region downwardly in a vertical direction of the motor vehicle in an installation position of the wheel suspension.

Motor vehicle control arm (1) comprising two profiles (2, 3) made from a metallic material, which are arranged at a distance opposite each other, and are connected to at least one plastic element (11) made from a fiber-reinforced plastic, wherein a plastic element (11) is designed in particular as a spring seat, which is designed to accommodate a motor vehicle spring. Such a motor vehicle control arm (1) is optimized with respect to weight and costs.

A suspension apparatus for a vehicle may include: a lower arm having a fastening hole formed therein; and a lower pad mounted on the lower arm, wherein the lower pad comprises: a pad body disposed on the lower arm, and configured to buffer shock; and an insertion protrusion protruding from the pad body, and inserted into the fastening hole, wherein the fastening hole and the insertion protrusion each have an angular shape.

A vehicle including a frame; a front left suspension assembly with a front left wheel; a front right suspension assembly with a front right wheel; a front gear train; a motor; shafts connected between the front wheels and the front gear train. Each front suspension assembly including a knuckle including: a first portion connected to a wheel hub and including a first ball joint, and a second portion extending upward from the first portion and including a second ball joint; a lower A-arm connected to the first ball joint; an upper A-arm connected to the second ball joint; the second ball joint being distanced from the wheel axis by a distance greater than the inner rim radius; and a shock assembly connected to the lower A-arm and the frame, the shafts passing below the ball joint of the shock absorber assembly which is vertically higher than the shaft.

A vehicle suspension system smoothly changes a vehicle posture with respect to a steering force and a steering angle by minimizing a kinematic roll at an initial turning stage, thereby allowing a driver to obtain the sensation of maneuvering the vehicle well. The suspension system includes a front suspension having geometry satisfying that a caster angle is +3° to +5°, a caster trail is +20 to +30 mm, an intersection point between a kingpin axis and ground is located on an inner side in a vehicle width direction of a center of a tire contact patch, and an anhedral angle of a lower arm is +2.8° to +7.2°. A rear suspension includes five links and has geometry satisfying that a virtual kingpin axis extends near the center of a tire contact patch of a rear wheel assembly and extends vertically at −2° to 0°.

A wheel suspension for a motor vehicle includes a wheel linkage. The wheel linkage has a bearing region and a spring element. The wheel linkage has a first linkage arm with a first connecting element. A second linkage arm has a second connecting element. The second linkage arm has a first longitudinal region having the second connection element and a second longitudinal region attached to the first longitudinal region and disposed between the bearing region and the first longitudinal region. The second longitudinal region is offset in relation to the bearing region and the first longitudinal region downwardly in a vertical direction of the motor vehicle in an installation position of the wheel suspension.

A rear axle of a two-track vehicle includes a plurality of wheel-control links with at least one spring link for supporting a bearing spring on a vehicle body of the vehicle, which wheel-control links connect a rear wheel of the vehicle to a rear axle carrier. The rear axle carrier includes at least two longitudinal members oriented at least approximately in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle and at least one crossmember oriented at least approximately in the transverse direction of the vehicle. The rear axle carrier is attached to the vehicle body via two bearing points on each side of the vehicle, as viewed with respect to the longitudinal center axis of the vehicle. The spring link and at least one of the wheel-control links are attached to the longitudinal member. The attachment of the spring link to one longitudinal member in each case is arranged, as viewed in the travel direction of the vehicle, upstream of the center of the distance between the bearing points arranged on a common side of the vehicle.
