Car suspension is actually a difficult concept to understand.

The origin of the car's "hanging" name is translated from the English "suspension". Its intention is to refer to the hanging, hanging, hanging state. However, what is the car suspension? It refers to the entire support system consisting of springs and shock absorbers between the body and the tires, mainly acting as a shock absorber.

When it comes to shock absorption, the old driver may have to speed up again.

In fact, we have seen that there is not a lot of connection between the intention of the suspension and the role played by the car suspension. It may be due to the fact that we do not think in the same way as the foreign automobile manufacturers, which makes it difficult to understand. In response to this, someone has given an answer:

Vehicle suspension can be divided into two categories, which are divided into independent suspension and non-independent suspension. The independent suspension includes McPherson-style, double-wishbone and multi-link suspension.

As can be seen from the figure, there is no rigid connection between the two wheels of an independently suspended vehicle, so that the two wheels can move relatively independently, and even when the road conditions are poor, it can ensure that the traffic has better comfort; There is a rigid connection between the two suspended wheels, the wheel wears slowly, and the construction is simple for later maintenance.

McPherson suspensions are very common and consist of shock absorbers, coil springs, and two A-shaped control arms on each side. When the vehicle wheel vibrates, the spring slows down the vibration of the vehicle body. The damper damps the vibration and attenuates the vibration. The control arm can be connected with the stabilizer bar to prevent the car body from rolling laterally when cornering.

In addition to shock absorbers and springs, the double wishbone suspension also has two control arms that are unequal lengths on each side, usually short and long, so this type of suspension provides better lateral stability, but at a higher cost.

Multi-link suspension figure, it can also be carefully classified according to the number of connecting rods, it has a good comfort, because of the higher cost, the larger space, so it is mostly used in high-end cars.

Vehicle suspension is divided into several types according to the differences in structure and function. When the car is purchased, these differences will translate into different car purchase costs. We need to have a deeper and more objective understanding of the suspension in order to select the one that is most suitable for us according to the demand.
