20130069330 | WHEEL SUSPENSION FOR REAR WHEELS OF A MOTOR VEHICLE - A wheel suspension for a rear wheel of a motor vehicle includes a wheel carrier, a lower control arm and a track rod connected to the wheel carrier at first and second points of articulation and supported on a vehicle body by first and second bearings. A rotation movement by the control arm and the track rod in response to longitudinal and/or lateral forces causes a toe-in change to thereby adjust the first point of articulation of the control arm by a first transverse offset in a vehicle transverse direction and adjust the second point of articulation of the track rod by a second transverse offset in the vehicle transverse direction. The first bearing is configured elastokinematically such that the first transverse offset of the first point of articulation is greater than the second transverse offset of the second point of articulation in response to the longitudinal and/or lateral forces. | 03-21-2013 |
20140232083 | TORSION BAR SPRING ARRANGEMENT FOR A WHEEL SUSPENSION OF A MOTOR VEHICLE - A torsion bar spring arrangement for a wheel suspension of a motor vehicle includes an actuator arranged on a vehicle body or on a subframe and constructed to variably pre-tension the torsion bar spring arrangement, a coaxial first torsion bar spring having an output side that is connected by way of an output lever to a wheel suspension element of the wheel suspension, and a housing of the actuator supported on the vehicle body in at least one bearing location for movement in a circumferential direction and resiliently yieldingly supported on the vehicle body in the direction of torsional moments acting on the torsion bar spring by way of at least one spring element. | 08-21-2014 |
20140239608 | SHEET-METAL CONTROL ARM FOR A WHEEL SUSPENSION OF A MOTOR VEHICLE - A sheet-metal control arm for a wheel suspension of a motor vehicle includes a base body, and two eyelets arranged in spaced-apart relationship at least at one end of the base body. Each eyelet has an opening, with the openings of the eyelets receiving a chassis bearing. At least one of the eyelets has a wall which is provided with a projection which is configured to at least partly bridge a gap to a wall of the other one of the eyelets. | 08-28-2014 |
20140319787 | WHEEL SUSPENSION FOR A MOTOR VEHICLE - A wheel suspension for a two-track motor vehicle includes a multi-link assembly having control arms that are articulated on a vehicle body and on a wheel carrier, a rotary actuator for an active suspension control system, with a motor-gear-unit constructed to transfer torques as actuating forces to the multi-link assembly via a torsion rod, and at least one reinforcing brace independent of the multi-link assembly and disposed on a side of the vehicle body and extending below the multi-link assembly, as viewed in a vertical direction of the vehicle body. The reinforcing brace delimits downwardly in the vehicle's vertical direction a free space, in which the rotary actuator is at least partially arranged. | 10-30-2014 |
