Track-rod ends for vehicle suspension

摘要

The track rods are used on the suspension of a road vehicle. A flexible bellows unit (1) encapsulates the ends of the steering track-rods. That part (1.2) of the bellows inner surface covering the surface (1.3) where the linkage is effected, incorporates a number of projections (3) inclined from the normal with respect to the surface. The resulting cavities (4) are filled with a lubricant.
