SAFETY STABILIZER FOR VEHICLE STEERING LINKAGE

摘要

A self-centering shock dampening stabilizer is connected between a fixed point on a vehicle main frame member and a moving point in the steering linkage which interconnects the vehicle steerable wheels and steering gear. The stabilizer embodies a hydraulic cylinder in conjunction with a coil spring snubber which includes two opposing coils of equal tension acting on the opposite ends of the snubber and also acting on fixed elements at one end of the hydraulic cylinder and at the center of the snubber.
