introduction
Suspension is the term given to the system of spring , shock absorbers
and linkage that connects a vehicle
to its wheel
The vehicle suspension system is responsible for driving comfort and safety as the suspension caries the vehicle body and transmit all force between the body and the road
Important Properties.
Spring rate:- It’s a ratio used to measure how resistance of spring is to being compressed or expanded during spring deflection.
Wheel rate:- It’s a effective spring rate when
measured at the wheel.
Roll couple percentage:-It’s the effective wheel rate.
Weight transfer.
Jacking force:- They are the sum of the vertical force
components experienced by the suspension link.
Suspension Types
Car manufacturing have set out to baffle us with the sheer of different types of suspension available for both front and rear axial.
The main grouping are dependent and applies to traditional or analogue suspension system.
Air suspension system.
These system are used to over come drawback which happens in spring system.
It helps to reduce load while the vehicle is in motion
It gives smooth
& comfort ride.
Nitrox shock observer
It’s also called as gas
filled shock observer.
It consist of a small box
which has Nitrogen
gas in it compared to other
By using secondary cylinder
It is used to reduce bubbles
which may form in oil
