The bridge rubber spring and the middle rubber spring form a two-stage series connection relation, and the total height dimension is not additionally increased by the series connection relation, so that the whole structure of the bridge rubber spring is very compact.
In the embodiment of the invention, the balance swing arm can swing relative to the automobile body, and the swing freedom degree is realized by two modes: the first way is realized by the twisting deformation of the middle rubber spring; the second way is achieved by the swivel sleeve, bearing, swivel shaft through the assembly relationship shown in fig. 9.
Referring to fig. 8 and 9, in the embodiment of the present invention, a through hole for connecting the rotation shaft 80 is provided in the second fixing portion 102; a bearing 801 is arranged in the rotating shaft 80, and a rotating shaft sleeve 802 is sleeved on the outer side of the rotating shaft 80; the outer side of the rotating sleeve 802 is provided with a middle rubber spring support 201 for connecting the middle rubber spring 20.
In some vehicles with good road conditions, the balance swing arm does not need to have too large swing amplitude, so that the rotary assembly mechanism shown in fig. 8 and 9 can be completely omitted, and the vehicle is simplified into a simple structure shown in fig. 10, and only one metal connecting piece is required to be welded with the frame connecting bracket into a whole.
In the embodiment of the invention, the middle rubber spring support 201 comprises a clamping plate 211 provided with a circular groove, the clamping plate 211 is sleeved on the outer side of the rotary shaft sleeve 802, two sides of the clamping plate 211 are provided with fixing plates 212 used for being connected with the middle rubber spring 20, and the fixing plates 212 are provided with mounting screw holes.
Referring to fig. 11 and 12, the rubber spring 40 on the bridge includes a top flange plate 401, a bottom flange plate 402, a coil spring 403 and a rubber block 404, the coil spring 403 is sleeved outside the rubber block 404, one end of the coil spring 403 is connected with the top flange plate 401, and the other end of the coil spring 403 is connected with the bottom flange plate 402.
Wherein the bridge rubber spring 40 adopts a composite structure of metal and rubber vulcanized into a whole. The upper and lower metal plates are used as the connecting surfaces, and the middle of the rubber body can be coated with the spiral spring.
In the embodiment of the invention, the frame connecting bracket 10 is connected with the automobile girder 60 through bolts or rivets, the frame connecting bracket 10 is welded or connected with the rotating shaft 80 through bolts, the rubber spring on the bridge is respectively arranged on each side of each axle, the bottom flange plate of the rubber spring on the bridge is provided with a bolt connecting hole, and the rubber spring on the bridge is connected with the mounting surface on the axle shell through bolts; the impact from the road surface is first transferred to the spring via the tire and axle, resulting in the first level of most direct cushioning.
The top flange plate of the bridge upper rubber spring 40 is also provided with a bolt connecting hole, and is connected with one side of the balance swing arm through a bolt; after the primary spring absorbs part of impact energy, the rest impact force is transmitted to the balance swing arm.
The balance swing arm is not rigidly connected with the automobile girder, a middle rubber spring is also arranged in the middle of the balance swing arm in an entrained manner, and the middle rubber spring absorbs the residual impact force transmitted by the balance swing arm for the second time; the buffer of the two-stage rubber spring is used for absorbing energy, so that the impact of the road surface on the vehicle body is reduced.
The balance swing arm can swing relative to the automobile body, and the swinging freedom degree is realized by two modes: the first way is realized by the distortion of the middle rubber spring; the second mode is realized by an assembly of the rotating shaft sleeve, the bearing and the rotating shaft.

The articulated joint at one end of the thrust rod is arranged at the lower side of the axle housing, the articulated joint at the other end of the thrust rod is arranged at the lower side of the balance swing arm, the balance swing arm can swing in the direction perpendicular to the road surface, and the freedom degree of other spaces is restrained; the thrust rod rigidly transmits driving force and braking force on one hand, and constrains the motion track of the axle relative to the vehicle body on the other hand, so that the axle can only move in a reasonable calculation range, and motion interference of the transmission shaft and interference of the axle and the vehicle body are avoided.
The balance swing arm and the rubber spring on the axle work together to provide motion constraint for the axle, and the constraint and the thrust rod work together to ensure the final motion range of the axle.
The balance swing arm and the frame connecting bracket can be formed by bending and welding steel plates, so that small-batch and even single-piece personalized manufacturing is feasible; all parts do not require the investment of complex dies or the complex machining operations.
The invention adopts the composite rubber as the elastic element, and compared with the leaf spring suspension, the torsion bar spring, the air spring, the hydro-pneumatic spring and the spiral spring, the rubber spring has light weight, low manufacturing cost and no maintenance; the comprehensive elastic characteristics of the rubber spring in the expansion direction, the torsion direction and the bending direction are not possessed by other types of springs; the composite rubber piece spring is adopted as an elastic element, so that the comfort of the composite rubber piece spring is superior to that of the steel plate spring suspension which is most widely used at present; the rubber spring has the capability of elastic deformation and elastic recovery in a plurality of degrees of freedom directions in space, so that the structure of the balance mechanism is simplified, and the number of thrust rods is reduced; the whole structure of the suspension is simple, the weight is light, and the maintenance is convenient; the small batch production and even single piece production can be realized without the need of investment of mould cost; the sizes of part parts are changed, so that the vehicle types with different loading qualities can be matched, and the research and development period of a new vehicle type is shortened; the novel vehicle type with different wheelbases can be quickly connected with the vehicle frame of the shaped chassis so as to be quickly derived; other forms of balanced suspension on the vehicle in use can be replaced directly without the need to replace the vehicle frame.
The rubber spring on the bridge needs to have enough compression or extension in a limited height range to realize the best impact energy absorption effect, and a structural composite material structure formed by vulcanizing the spiral spring and the rubber block into a whole is preferentially adopted.
As shown in fig. 13, the middle arm of the thrust rod is in a curve shape, so as to avoid interference with the balance swing arm on the movement track.
