Abstract

PURPOSE:To decrease the axial force imposed upon lateral links by supporting a wheel bearing member with a swing arm extending along the car body and three lateral links extending across the car body and by specifying the receiving point of a wheel cornering force. CONSTITUTION:A swing arm 18 is provided, which is plate-shaped (vertically wide) and extending along the car body and which is fixed, at one end, to the car body via a horizontal transverse shaft 38 in such a manner as to permit free rotation about this shaft and also fixed, at the other end, to a wheel bearing member 12 with a bolt 30. Also the first through third lateral links 20, 22, 24 are provided, each of which is fixed, at one end, to the wheel bearing member 12 via a horizontal shaft extending practically along the car body in such a manner as to permit free rotation about this shaft and also fixed, at the other end, to the car body in the same manner, permitting free rotation. In this case, the fitting point of the second lateral link 22 to the wheel bearing member 12 is set on the upper side than those of the other lateral links 20, 24 so that the receiving point of a wheel 10 cornering force is placed between the two assumed lines L1, L2 which connect the upper fitting point and the lower fitting points.

This rear suspension system has a trailing arm that extends in the front-rear direction of the vehicle and whose front end can swing upwards. A hub support member is fixed to support the trailing arm.A damper is also arranged between the rear end of the trailing arm and the vehicle body above it.This type of rear suspension has a simple structure. However, in order to sufficiently increase the lateral rigidity of the trailing arm, the internal shape of the trailing arm must be made large, and the lateral position of the point on the vehicle body must be The directional spacing must be widened, and the trailing arm becomes large, which is disadvantageous in terms of ff1ffl.

Therefore, the posture of the wheel is regulated by the three lateral links, and the arrangement of the three lateral links,
In other words, the angle, length, and position of each lateral link in the downward and longitudinal directions, the position of its attachment to the ring center, and the lateral force bending rigidity at the attachment position are determined appropriately. By doing this, it becomes possible to control toe changes and camber angle simplification in a desirable manner when the wheels rebound during bumps and when lateral force or longitudinal force acts on the wheels by 1°. The arm only needs to have enough strength and rigidity to transmit the force in the forward and backward directions and the rotational force in the wheel rotation direction, and does not impose constraints on the attitude control of the 11 wheels by the three lateral links. 414 '3
There are 7. For this purpose, the swing arm configuration direction Fi
The swing arm can be deflected laterally during bumps, rebounds, etc., or the swing arm and the wheel support member can be rotated about a vertical axis or relative to each other laterally. You can combine them like this.

In addition, by appropriately determining the arrangement of the three lateral links, it is possible to achieve desirable changes in the attitude of the wheel when motion occurs in the heat direction of the wheel, or when a lateral force or nil rearward force is applied to the wheel. For example, the lateral link installation of the present invention makes it possible to effectively suppress the wheel from moving in one direction during a bump or rebound. According to the arrangement of the points, when a lateral force is applied to the wheel, the stress generated in the lateral link with the attachment point above has the opposite sign to the stress generated in the other two lateral links, and as a result, 3
The overall stress level imposed on the lateral links of the tree can be lowered.

(Description of the Embodiment) Referring to FIGS. 1 to 4, a wheel 1 (1) is rotatably supported by a wheel support member 12 and connected to a vehicle body 16 via a suspension device 14. The suspension system Wi 4 is composed of a swing arm 18, a first lateral link 20, a second lateral link 22, a third lateral link 24, and a shock absorber 2G. It has a plate shape and extends to the vehicle body, and its front end is rotated about a horizontal axis in the lateral direction of the vehicle body by a rubber bushing 39 fixed to the swing arm 18 and a bolt 38 passing through the rubber bushing to a bracket 29 provided on the vehicle body main frame 28. The bolt 3 is attached to the wheel support member 12 at the rear end.
It is fixed at 0. The first lateral link 20 extends substantially laterally with respect to the vehicle body, and one end is attached to the wheel support member 12 via a rubber bushing 20a so as to be rotatable about a horizontal axis in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body, and the other end is attached to the vehicle main frame 20.
Similarly, No. 8 is attached to No. 8 via a rubber bush so as to be rotatable around a horizontal axis in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle body. Second

The shock absorber 26 is equipped with a fill spring 34 and a damper 36, and extends from the upper end to the upper end 11 (attached to the shaft support member 12 for rotation I and +J functions), with one end attached to the vehicle body. Rotational deviation is i1 in I6
It is installed in a way that makes it easy to use. FIG. 5 excludes other embodiments.
The difference is that the mounting position of the first lateral link 20 is arranged slightly below the 1rv mounting position of the third lateral link 24. If the link arrangement of these embodiments is further explained in detail based on FIG. 5, the mounting position of each lateral link 20, 22.

When the wheel 10 receives a downward force, the rear wheel 10 is displaced in the downward direction, and the swing arm 18 swings around the bolt 38 for attaching the front wheel i to the vehicle body. . Therefore, the wheel center 40 is located at the swing arm 1
8 is displaced along an arcuate trajectory centered on the bolt 38 at the front end of the bolt 38. In this case, the wheel support member 12 has 3
Since it is laterally supported by the lateral links 20.22.24 of the book, the lateral links 20.22.24 also
E It swings in the direction of the lower blade, and its outer end is displaced in the lateral direction along with the swing. FIG. 71 In the arrangement of the lateral links as in the embodiment, the first lateral link 20 is slightly inclined laterally outward toward the rear lower blade, and its length is the same as that of the three lateral links. It's the shortest among us. The second lateral link 22 is slightly inclined laterally outward toward the curved upper blade, and the third lateral link 24 is slightly inclined toward the lower blade toward the lateral external force. With this arrangement, for example, if the +I wheel is displaced toward the child, the outer end of the first lateral link 20 will be slightly displaced outward, but since the link 20 will tilt toward the pulling force, The amount of outward displacement is small. The outer end of the second lateral link 22 is displaced by internal force as the wheel is displaced to the J wheel.

Further, the outer end of the third lateral link 24 is displaced outwardly,
The amount of displacement is larger than the amount of displacement of the outer end of the first lateral link 20 6 and the first and second lateral links 2
Since the outer end of 0.22 is located closer to the oil pressure than the outer end of the third lateral link 24, there is a slight toe-in increase as a rest!
This results in a decrease in the camber angle. A slight toe-out and a slight increase in camber angle are used for wheel toe displacement or rebound.

By making the 11 properties the same, it is possible to make almost no 1-angle change in response to lateral force,
Furthermore, by changing the rigidity of these rubber bushings as necessary, it is possible to create a slight toe-in against inward lateral forces and a slight l-out against outward lateral forces. In addition, with this arrangement, there is almost no change in toe angle from front to rear. Referring to FIG. 2, when cornering force acts on the wheels, such as when driving on a curved road, each lateral link 20, 22, 24

Here, considering the balance of moments around the line [, 1, the axial force generated in the third lateral link 24 opposes the co-touring force F and generates an axial force in the opposite direction. At one point of the vehicle body side weir 4, an axial force F1 as shown in FIG. 2 is transmitted to the vehicle body. Similarly, line 1. ? Due to the balance of the surrounding moments, the same axial force F1 in the J direction is generated in the first lateral link 20 as well. As a result, the second lateral link 22 has one
An axial force F2 of opposite sign is generated. These axial forces 1't, F
2. The magnitude of F"q is determined by the axial force F from the relationship of balance of lateral force.
I2: The sum of Fq is approximately equal to the sum of the axial force F2 and the cornering force F. Therefore, the axial force generated on each of the three lateral links is the same as the cornering force on one lateral link and the cornering force on the other? In the case of resisting the axial force of the wooden lateral link, the size can be reduced by 11, and the mechanical reliability is increased by one unit. In addition, as shown in the example shown in the figure, if one lateral link is placed at the upper cam at the center of the wheel, and the other two are placed at the tI (lower blade at the center of the shaft, and are placed front and back), the axial force of the lateral link will be equalized by the tit car. It is advantageous because it can be converted into
