Definitions
- Anti-roll bar for a motor vehicle
- the present invention relates to a transverse stabilizer for a motor vehicle according to the preamble of patent claim 1.
- Transverse stabilizers for motor vehicles are usually used to elastically couple the wheel suspension of a wheel on one side of the motor vehicle to the wheel suspension of the corresponding wheel on the same axis on the other side of the motor vehicle.
- the coupling is such that when one wheel is deflected, the suspension of the other wheel is also acted on in the direction of spring deflection.
- the anti-roll bar should as far as possible not influence the suspension behavior of the vehicle.
- DE-AS 11 05 290 describes providing a stabilizer with a split torsion bar, the sections being connected to one another in the manner of a hydraulic clutch which is controlled as a function of the centrifugal force or the vehicle steering. This makes it possible to disable the stabilizer when driving straight ahead by opening the clutch and to switch it on only when cornering. Moreover, it is also known from this document to adjust the sections of the torsion bar relative to one another by means of an actuating motor when cornering in such a way that the vehicle body tilts less far towards the outside of the curve, i.e. an inclination is actively counteracted.
- a known actuator for coupling transverse stabilizers with a split torsion bar is known from DE 199 50 244 C2. Further actuators are described in DE 37 4024 C2.
- a disadvantage of the known anti-roll bars with a split torsion bar is that the turning on (coupling) of the anti-roll bar must take place automatically and very quickly for safety reasons when cornering, since the vehicle could otherwise become uncontrollable when cornering.
- the high costs associated with these requirements for the actuator of the known cross stabilizers have led to the fact that switchable cross stabilizers (also under the name "active cross stabilizers" known) in volume models (ie vehicles that are manufactured in large quantities) are not used.
- cross stabilizers are known, which are used in particular in the off-road sector.
- Such transverse stabilizers for example known from DE 43 07 639 Cl, are only suitable for improving traction when driving slowly through the terrain.
- systems of this type are not suitable for switching on or off the cross stabilizer when driving on a normal road, since there is a risk that the cross stabilizer will not be switched on in a curve or not in time, and the vehicle will thus become in an uncontrollable state.
- a transverse stabilizer for a motor vehicle which has an undivided torsion bar which is rotatably fastened to a vehicle frame and is connected to two opposite wheel suspensions of the same axis of the vehicle and which has a torsion region for the elastic coupling of suspension movements of the opposite wheel suspensions, the transverse stabilizer furthermore has a first torsion tube surrounding the undivided torsion bar, at least in a first partial area of its torsion area, the first end of which is non-rotatably connected to the undivided torsion bar, and the second end of which is selectively non-rotatably connected to the undivided by means of a coupling arrangement
- Torsion bar is connectable so that the torsional stiffness of the anti-roll bar can be changed.
- the undivided torsion bar has areas of different torsional stiffness, and the torsional stiffness of the undivided torsion bar is lower in a first section than in a second section.
- the torsional stiffness of the undivided torsion bar is preferably between 20 and 50 percent, and the torsional stiffness of the torsion tube between 80 and 50 percent of the torsional stiffness of the transverse stabilizer, if the second end of the torsion tube is connected to the undivided torsion bar in a rotationally fixed manner by means of the coupling arrangement.
- the coupling arrangement is preferably suitable for turning the second end of the first torsion tube in a rotationally fixed manner with the torsion bar depending on the actual and / or expected transverse acceleration of the vehicle connect. It is thus possible to automatically disengage the anti-roll bar when the vehicle is driving straight ahead, and to re-engage it automatically when cornering.
- the anti-roll bar according to the invention also has a second torsion tube surrounding the torsion bar in a second partial area of its torsion area, the first end of which can be selectively connected in a rotationally fixed manner to the second end of the first torsion tube by means of the coupling arrangement and the second end of which is non-rotatably connected to the undivided torsion bar connected is.
- the first torsion tube is not coupled directly to the undivided torsion bar, but rather to the second torsion tube.
- this enables a freer arrangement of the clutch arrangement on the motor vehicle.
- the torsional stiffness of the torsionally rigidly connected torsion tubes is between 80 and 50 percent of the torsional rigidity of the transverse stabilizer if the second end of the first torsional tube is connected to the first end of the second torsion tube in a rotationally fixed manner by means of the coupling arrangement ,
- the coupling arrangement is suitable for connecting the second end of the first torsion tube in a rotationally fixed manner to the first end of the second torsion tube depending on the actual and / or expected transverse acceleration of the vehicle. It is thus possible to automatically disengage the anti-roll bar when the vehicle is driving straight ahead, and to re-engage it automatically when cornering.
- a coupling arrangement of a transverse stabilizer according to the alternative embodiment can be implemented particularly easily if the first end of the first torsion tube and / or the second end of the second torsion tube is mounted on the torsion bar so that it can rotate so that it can be axially displaced by the coupling arrangement.
- the first and / or the second torsion tube surrounds the undivided torsion bar centrally.
- the clutch arrangement can preferably be controlled as a function of the driving speed and the steering angle and / or the steering angle speed and / or the lateral acceleration of the vehicle.
- the clutch arrangement has spring assemblies which are designed in such a way that a quick closing of the clutch arrangement is ensured. Thus, there is no need to apply energy to close the clutch assembly, making the system very fault tolerant.
- the coupling arrangement is preferably designed such that it closes or remains closed automatically in the event of a fault.
- the clutch arrangement can be switchable hydraulically or pneumatically, for example.
- the clutch arrangement has a hydraulic ring cylinder which is suitable for opening the clutch arrangement.
- the coupling arrangement is preferably designed such that an entanglement between the torsion bar and the torsion tube or the two torsion tubes that is permissible when the vehicle is traveling straight ahead cannot be exceeded ,
- the clutch arrangement is designed in the form of a dog clutch.
- the claw teeth of the claw coupling are then preferably designed such that an entanglement between the torsion bar and the torsion tube or the two torsion tubes that is permissible when the vehicle is traveling straight ahead cannot be exceeded when the clutch is open.
- the claw teeth of the claw coupling are further configured such that the spring force of a spring which is suitable for closing the claw coupling is increased via the tooth flanks in order to reliably close the claw coupling even when the torsion bar and torsion tube are entangled or to ensure the two torsion tubes.
- the coupling arrangement is designed in the form of a driving ball coupling, which has a first element and a second element, the elements being displaceable relative to one another, and pockets for driving balls being introduced into mutually facing sides of the elements, so that the driving balls are arranged between the first and the second element.
- the pockets are preferably arranged on a circular ring and are designed in accordance with a rotational ellipsoid segment.
- the pockets preferably have ramps which are designed in such a way that, when the driver ball coupling is open, an admissible entanglement between the torsion bar and the torsion tube or the two torsion tubes cannot be exceeded.

- the ramps are designed by a suitable choice of the angles ⁇ , ⁇ in such a way that, when the coupling is open, a permissible entanglement of preferably 7 to 10 ° between the torsion bar 5 'and the torsion tube 8' or the two torsion tubes 81, 82 is not exceeded can.
- the angles are ⁇ ; ⁇ between 55 ° and 65 °, and preferably 60 °.
- an inexpensive anti-roll bar is proposed, which is sufficiently effective when cornering and evasive maneuvers, and otherwise only slightly affects the suspension behavior of the vehicle, so that a high level of driving comfort is ensured.
