Torsional axle

摘要

The vehicle axle comprises two drawn arms (2) and a crosspiece (3A). There is a free edge (31A) at each end of the crosspiece and the arms are connected to the crosspiece ends by three ball joints (6) allowing a distortion of the free edge. The arms which are each fastened to the bodywork by a pivot (4) which defines a pivoting axis (L1,L2) relative to the bodywork. The pivot allows a dis-alignment of the pivoting axes relative to each other. The arms each support a wheel (5). The crosspiece imposes a torsion axis around which the arms oscillate relative to each other.
