In particular, when fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP), which is being considered for weight reduction, is used as a suspension arm, the shear strength is about one-fourth to one-fifth of the tensile strength, and silicon Since the compressive strength is only about half, the durability is significantly reduced by the shearing force.

(Functions and Effects) When the suspension arm is incorporated into the suspension system of a vehicle and a moment based on longitudinal force is applied to the suspension arm from the wheel support, the bushing at the joint of the auxiliary arm with the vehicle body will deflect. Within this range, the main arm rotates about an axis extending vertically at the connection with the vehicle body. This makes it possible to suppress shearing force from acting on the main arm.

Since the auxiliary arm has higher rigidity than the main arm, it is possible to easily select a shape and arrangement that can withstand the axial forces generated by lateral and lateral forces while avoiding interference with the tires during steering. With this thorough selection, the auxiliary arm can serve as a stopper and the rigidity of the entire suspension system can be ensured.

Since both ends of the main arm are rotatably supported around the vertical axis, the magnitude and direction of stress generated in the main arm are determined only by the axial force and vertical bending force applied to the main arm. Therefore, when the main arm is formed of an anisotropic material such as FRP, the characteristics of the resin can be fully utilized.
