METHOD FOR ANALYSING TIRE VIBRATION CHARACTERISTICS AND AN APPARATUS FOR CARRYING OUT SAID METHOD

摘要

A method for analysing tire vibration characteristics and an apparatus for carrying out the method, wherein the apparatus includes a stiff frame including a wheel support for supporting a wheel with a tire to be analysed. A base part is flexibly connected with the frame by elastic means. The elastic means is embodied such that the frame is flexibly supported in one predefined functional direction. An actuator is provided for exciting vibrations into the wheel. The method and apparatus allow separate analysis of the natural vibrations in all four functional directions.
