TIGHTENING TORQUE ▶Front suspension assembly 08-6 ▶Rear suspension assembly 0000-00 08-7 1. OVERVIEW The suspension is the device to connect the axle and vehicle. It absorbs the vibrations and impacts from road surface, which enhances the comforts, driving force, braking force and drivability. Underview of vehicle with 2WD, 6M/T Underview of vehicle with 4WD, 6A/T Front suspension Front suspension Rear suspension Rear suspension 08-8 1) Front Suspension (Macperson Strut Type) Front suspension supports the vehicle weight and absorber the vibration from tires. And, in this type of suspension, the steering linkage tie rod is mounted on the knuckle. Macperson strut type suspension Macperson strut type suspension is the independent suspension which has the spring on the strut integrated with shock absorber. The lower arm is installed on sub frame and large strut damper is installed on the knuckle to support the tire. This type of suspension is normally applied to the vehicle with monocoque body, especially on the front wheel drive type. The upper part with spring is mounted at body mount and the strut with shock absorber is linked on the steering knuckle. ▶Advantages 1. Compact and simple design 2. Stable wheel alignment 3. Good load distribution and easy installation 4. Less effect from tire up/down movement ▶Disadvantages 1. Comparatively weak to the impact from road surface and lateral shock due to long strut and single swing arm 0000-00 08-9 2) Rear Suspension (Multi-link Type) Multi-link type suspension is the independent suspension. It provides good ride comfort and drivability by reducing the coil spring weight. Also, it increases the space for passenger compartment by lowering the floor. This type of suspension consists of multiple links such as trailing arm, upper arm, lower arm and track rod. Layout 08-10 1. SYSTEM LAYOUT 1) Front Suspension Damper strut assembly Lower arm Stabilizer bar assembly Stabilizer bar link 0000-00 08-11 2) Rear Suspension Shock absorber Stabilizer bar assembly Stabilizer bar link Coil spring and link Trailing/upper arm/track rod Coil spring Upper arm Trailing arm Coil spring link Track rod 08-12 Coil spring Lower arm The coil spring is made by The lower arm relieves the load to knuckle. winding solid steel rod to form This enables to absorb the various impacts the coil shape. Its energy according to the load shapes and to ensure absorption rate per weight is the drivability. higher than that of the leaf spring and it allows to absorb small vibration properly resulted in keeping the ride comforts. Therefore, it's difficult to make an effect on vibration damping because there is not any friction between coils. Damper shock absorber assembly Stabilizer assembly If the spring with lower spring constant is applied on the vehicle in order to increase the "ride comforts", the vehicle's slope increases on turning due to the centrifugal force. Because its trend increases for the independent suspension system, the stabilizer bar should be applied to the system in order to make a balance the vehicle. Stabilizer bar The stabilizer bar is a certain type of torsion bar. Its both ends are connected to the control arm and Bushing the its center area is mounted to Clamp the body frame. It is not activated when both wheels are moving up or down simultaneously. However, Link Link it minimizes the vehicle's slope when each wheel moves up or down independently. 4410-00 08-13 Damper/shock absorber assembly This vehicle uses the strut type shock absorber. This shock absorber is connected to the piston rod in the strut. This relieves the vertical vibrations of vehicle to provide ride comforts, prevents the spring break, enhances drivability, and extends the life span of steering components. 1. Coil spring 6.

Ball School of Computing and Engineering, University of Huddersfield, Queensgate, Huddersfield HD1 3DH, UK; [email protected] (F.G.); [email protected] (R.C.); [email protected] (A.D.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +44-01484-473640 Academic Editor: Paul Stewart Received: 31 March 2016; Accepted: 12 May 2016; Published: 19 May 2016 Abstract: To improve vehicle fuel economy whilst enhancing road handling and ride comfort, power generating suspension systems have recently attracted increased attention in automotive engineering. This paper presents our study of a regenerative hydraulic shock absorber system which converts the oscillatory motion of a vehicle suspension into unidirectional rotary motion of a generator. Firstly a model which takes into account the influences of the dynamics of hydraulic flow, rotational motion and power regeneration is developed. Thereafter the model parameters of fluid bulk modulus, motor efficiencies, viscous friction torque, and voltage and torque constant coefficients are determined based on modelling and experimental studies of a prototype system. The model is then validated under different input excitations and load resistances, obtaining results which show good agreement between prediction and measurement. In particular, the system using piston-rod dimensions of 50–30 mm achieves recoverable power of 260 W with an efficiency of around 40% under sinusoidal excitation of 1 Hz frequency and 25 mm amplitude when the accumulator capacity is set to 0.32 L with the load resistance 20 W.

  • Ride Control Defined
    RIDE CONTROL DEFINED According to Newton's First Law, a moving body will continue moving in a straight line until it is acted upon by another force. Newton's Second Law states that for each action there is an equal and opposite reaction. In the case of the automobile, whether the disturbing force is in the form of a wind-gust, an incline in the roadway, or the cornering forces produced by tires, the force causing the action and the force resisting the action will always be in balance. Many things affect vehicles in motion. Weight distribution, speed, road conditions and wind are some factors that affect how vehicles travel down the highway. Under all these variables however, the vehicle suspension system including the shocks, struts and springs must be in good condition. Worn suspension components may reduce the stability of the vehicle and reduce driver control. They may also accelerate wear on other suspension components. Replacing worn or inadequate shocks and struts will help maintain good ride control as they: Control spring and suspension movement Provide consistent handling and braking Prevent premature tire wear Help keep the tires in contact with the road Maintain dynamic wheel alignment Control vehicle bounce, roll, sway, dive and acceleration squat Reduce wear on other vehicle systems Promote even and balanced tire and brake wear Reduce driver fatigue Suspension concepts and components have changed and will continue to change dramatically, but the basic objective remains the same: 1. Provide steering stability with good handling characteristics 2. Maximize passenger comfort Achieving these objectives under all variables of a vehicle in motion is called ride control 1 BASIC TERMINOLOGY To begin this training program, you need to possess some very basic information.

Raisoni College of Engineering and Management, Chas, Ahmednagar, India Abstract: In order to provide a comfortable ride to the passengers and avoid additional stresses in motor car frame, the car should neither bounce or roll or sway the passengers when cornering nor pitch when accelerating. For this purpose the virtual prototype of suspension systems were built in software MSC ADAMS/CAR and suspensions for military truck were analyzed keeping in mind the optimization of suspension parameters. As there is tremendous development in Suspension Technology, Multi-Link suspension system are considered better independent suspension system among all other independent suspension system. Its simple design and construction makes it way more convenient to install and serve its purpose. As there is vast growth in Agriculture, farming becoming more and more advanced in terms of technology and in that transport vehicles play important role in making agriculture more productive. We saw different scenario where agriculture transport vehicles collapsing because of their conventional suspension system fails to stabalize the loaded vehicle on different road conditions. We tried to see the improvement in performance of vehicle in stabalizing itself by using Multi- Link suspension system. Keywords: Suspension, links, vibrations, Multi body dynamic analysis (MBD) 1.
