Rear suspension system adjustable to make the rear wheels assume a predetermined toe alignment during cornering without effecting the wheels camber angle setting

摘要

An independent rear wheel suspension system having top and bottom parallel struts which are linked to a control arm and which make each rear wheel produce predetermined cornering toe alignment with no effective change to the camber angle of the wheels. The angle of the struts at rest as viewed in reference to a leveled ground plane is used to predetermine the wheels' toe change during cornering. The limits of wheels' toe change are conditional to the spring rate acting on each rear wheel. The camber angle and the cornering toe alignment of the wheels can be adjusted independently from each other.
