Each ball joint includes a ball stud one end of which is fastened to a suspension device or a stabilizer, and which has a ball part at the other end thereof, and a housing that rotatably supports the ball part of the ball stud. The support bar includes: a body part extending in a nearly linear shape, and reinforcement parts each having a nearly annular shape and each provided at both ends of the body part. The reinforcement parts of the support bar are each embedded in the housing so as to surround the ball part.

Hollow stabilizer, stabilizer manufacturing device, and method for manufacturing hollow stabilizer

A hollow stabilizer includes a curved part having eight regions defined in a cross section. A first region includes a 90° first part when the center of the inside of the curve is taken to be at 0° and the center of the outside of the curve is taken to be at 180°. A third region includes a 0° third part. A fifth region includes a 270° fifth part. A seventh region includes a 180° seventh part. The radii of curvature of the respective outer surfaces of the third part and the seventh part are larger and the radii of curvature of the respective outer surfaces of the second part and the sixth part are smaller than the radii of curvature of the respective outer surfaces of the fourth part and the fifth part.

STABILISER BAR WITH DIRECTLY MOLDED ELASTIC BUSHING
20230132410 · 2023-05-04 ·

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.
