Abstract

PURPOSE:To increase the minimum level above ground of a vehicle body for preventing it from coming in contact with the ground, by constructing a Macpherson-strut-type front wheel suspension apparatus such that the connection of a suspension strut to a lower control arm is disposed in an upper position than the axle. CONSTITUTION:A suspension strut 6 is provided with a node 9 in the lower portion thereof. A lower control arm 7 is divided into a presser portion 7a and a body portion 7b, and both portions 7a and 7b have recesses 7a' and 7b', respectively, for slidably clamping said node 9. The presser portion 7a is fixed to the body portion 7b with bolts 10. The other end of the arm 7 and the upper end of the strut 6 are mounted on a vehicle body. According to this construction, the position of the arm 7 can be set independently from the position of a king pin so that the position of the arm 7 is upper than the axle 12, and therefore the minimum level above ground of the vehicle body can be larger than the radius of a tire 13. Accordingly, the vehicle body is effectively prevented from coming in contact with the ground even in running on rough ground.

Effect of the Invention The front wheel suspension system according to the present invention in the above embodiment sets the position of the lower control arm 7 regardless of the position of the king pin, and the position of the lower control arm 7 is set more closely than the axle 12.
is located above, and the minimum ground clearance is equal to or greater than the radius of the tire 13. Therefore, even if the vehicle is traveling on rough terrain, the vehicle body is prevented from coming into contact with the ground.

また、上記実施例の前輪懸架装置は、節状部９を押え部
