Suspension for steerable wheel of motor vehicle

摘要

The joints (5,6) on the ends of the upper and lower links rods (1,2) each has a crescent-shaped rail (7,8) attached to the wheel support. There is a guide component (9,10) guided by the rail and attached to the link rod. The actual centre point (11,12) of the curvature of the rail defines the position of the steering rotational axis. The guide component may be connected to the link rod to pivot around a horizontal axis and to be non-rotatable on the rail, or to be fixed to the link rod and rotate on the rail.
