AFW VEHICLE SUSPENSION

摘要

The invention relates to the automotive industry, and specifically to suspension design. A vehicle suspension contains a frame, four identical levers intended for connecting to the hubs of corresponding wheels, and torsion bars which are connected to the levers. Two freely-rotating torsion bars, which twist at an angle of between 1 and 5 degrees when under a load, form a front axle and a rear axle. The torsion bars are affixed to the frame by means of bearing assemblies and are installed in parallel. The centers of the torsion bars are connected to one another by means of a pull rod, and the torsion bars can be simultaneously axially rotated by an angle of between -45° and +45° relative to a neutral position. Affixed to each end of a torsion bar is a lever with a hub of a corresponding wheel. Levers on the same axle are affixed to the ends of a corresponding torsion bar, are installed in parallel, and are made to face in opposite directions. Levers of each side of the suspension, i.e. the right side or the left side, are made to face in opposite directions. The present invention creates conditions for all four wheels to simultaneously rest on the road, both during rectilinear motion and when driving over obstacles.
