A twist beam for a suspension of a motor vehicle comprises a body-side inner part having a bearing-receiving section for receiving a body-side bearing, and a wheel carrier-side outer part having a bearing-receiving section for receiving a wheel carrier-side bearing, the outer part and the inner part being separate components which are made of different materials and are firmly connected to each other.

A relative guide device (1) for a steering arrangement (31) is arranged on the wheel-carrier side for the spatial guidance and maintenance of the relative spatial orientation of the steering arrangement (31) with respect to a vehicle body (40). At least one telescopic movement apparatus (2) for movably connecting the steering arrangement (31) is arranged on the wheel-carrier side to the vehicle body (40). A steering force transmission device (30) transmits a steering force to a wheel (R) of a vehicle having a relative guide device (1), and to a wheel suspension (50) for a vehicle.

A front suspension assembly for a vehicle having a connector adapted for connection to a front ground engaging member of the vehicle, a lower swing arm adapted for pivotal connection to a frame of the vehicle about a lower swing axis and being pivotally connected to the connector, an upper swing arm adapted for pivotal connection to the frame about an upper swing axis and being pivotally connected to the connector, the upper swing arm being above the lower swing arm, and a shock absorber assembly having a first end adapted for pivotal connection to the frame above the upper swing axis and a second end pivotally connected to the upper swing arm. The connector is pivotable relative to the lower and upper swing arms about a steering axis. A vehicle having the front suspension assembly is also disclosed.

A fabricated torque arm for use in a vehicle suspension, including a rod having a solid rectangular cross-section, the rod having a first end and an oppositely disposed second end, a first bushing hub, and wherein the rod is only a single piece cut from a metal plate or sheet, wherein the first bushing hub comprises cut tubing, wherein the first end of the rod has a radius that conforms to an outer surface of the first bushing hub, and wherein the first end of the rod is welded to the outer surface of the first bushing hub.

A hub bracket structure includes a hub bracket that connects a trailing arm and a hub carrier, wherein the hub bracket includes a bracket body that includes a mounting surface mounted with the hub carrier, and a rear connector that extends from the bracket body toward the trailing arm behind a ground contact point of a rear wheel, and the rear connector is extended to a position to overlap with a rear surface of the trailing arm in a front-rear direction and is joined to the rear surface of the trailing arm.

Disclosed is a chassis component (1, 38) having a measuring device (9) for determining a relative position of two chassis components connected movably with one another. For example, a first chassis component is a joint (2) with at least one rotation axis (8) and a second chassis component is a structural component (3), the structural component (3) being mounted by means of the joint (2) so that it can pivot around the rotation axis (8) of the joint (2). The measuring device (9) has a signal emitter (13) and a sensor device (10, 28) with a signal receiver (21), where the sensor device (10, 28) is arranged on the structural component (3) and the signal emitter (13) is arranged on the joint (2). To improve an arrangement of the sensor device (10, 28) on the structural component (3), the sensor device (10, 28) extends through a through-opening (11).

There is provided a suspension arm for a vehicle used in a suspension device of a vehicle. The suspension arm may include: a body portion constituting a basic body of the suspension arm; and a plurality of mounting portions configured to connect the suspension arm to a wheel-side member or a vehicle-body-side member. At least one of the plurality of mounting portions may be configured to include a bushing coupling portion and a fastening portion formed to extend from the bushing coupling portion to one side, such that the fastening portion may be coupled to a coupling portion provided on one side of the body portion in surface-contact with state.

A vehicle suspension assembly includes a trailing axle carried by a frame of the assembly. The frame can retract to a retracted state from an extended state and extend from the retracted state to the extended state. The retraction and extension can occur along a longitudinal axis of the frame. An operator can pivotally raise and lower a free end of frame in the retracted or extended state along an arcuate path when the vehicle suspension assembly connects to a vehicle.

A wheel suspension unit for a motor vehicle having a longitudinal link, having a first end for pivotable vehicle-side connection, a second end for connection to a wheel carrier, and a blade-like link portion resilient in the direction of the transverse axis (Y) and rigid transversely relative thereto. The wheel suspension reduces the number of components by providing a longitudinal link having a resilient portion resilient toward the longitudinal axis (X), wherein the longitudinal link is at least partially produced from a fiber-reinforced plastics material.

A suspension for a vehicle is configured such that, even in a situation of departing from a range in which a spring may be tensioned as a rebound state is added in a full rebound state, a lower end of the spring is continuously supported by a spring seat support arm, so as to prevent separation of the spring connecting a suspension arm to a body member.
