WHEEL SUPPORTING APPARATUS IMPROVING RIDE COMFORT OF VEHICLE

摘要

A wheel supporting apparatus (200) includes dampers (140, 150), ball joints (160, 170), a knuckle (180), an upper arm (210), and a lower arm (220). The dampers (140, 150) are attached to a case (60) of an in-wheel motor (IWM) in the top-bottom direction (DR1) of the vehicle's body and are connected respectively to the ball joints (160, 170). The upper arm (210) and the lower arm (220) have respective one-ends connected to respective dampers (140, 150) via the ball joints (160, 170) and respective other ends pivotably fixed to the vehicle's body. The knuckle (180) is connected to the ball joints (160, 170) to rotatably support a wheel hub (20) via hub bearings (11, 12).
