The steering axle has a one-piece steel cross support (2) with tubular torsion-rigid end sections (3) which pass through suitably contoured openings (12) in the side walls of the upper and lower shells (3,4) of longitudinal rods (4) which are welded togeth...

A vehicle suspension apparatus includes an axle which comprises a pair of trailing arms and a transverse beam (12). Resilient bushings connect the forward ends of the trailing arms to the vehicle superstructure (26). A linkage mechanism connects the beam (...

An automobile vehicle suspension comprises two longitudinal arms (2, 3) articulated on the body. The longitudinal arms (2, 3) are connected by an anti-roll bar (10, 20, 30, 40, 50) which comprises at least one fold (14, 26, 36, 46) to reduce the bending in...

The axle's cross member(18) has a V-form or U-form double wall section with an inner profile(22) and an outer profile(23) which at least in areas bear upon each other. A friction reducing additive(A) is applied in the contact area(29) between the inner and...

The suspension system, comprising two lengthwise arms (12) with wheel carriers (24), connected by a torsion cross-member (14), has each of the arms made at least partly from extruded metal or metal alloy, with the direction of extrusion lying perpendicular...
