| 摘要 |
The invention relates to a rear axle for motor vehicles configured as a drawbar axle, comprising a drawbar axle body which is mounted on the vehicle body on the one hand by means of a cardan drawbar joint and on the other hand at its free ends by means of two struts. The drawbar joint is positioned lower than the pivoting joints of the struts facing the drawbar. Each strut is supported on the vehicle body by means of an elastic pivoting joint and the two pivoting joints on the vehicle-body side are higher than the pivoting joints of the struts on the drawbar side. The drawbar axle body is elastically deformable at least in the vehicle transverse direction. The extent of said deformation is in the range of the sum of deformation of the elastokinematic joints of at least one strut. The invention provides a vehicle axle which requires as few joints and links as possible while presenting positive roll steering and/or cornering properties and being easy to manufacture and assembly.
