Relationship beetwwn stress and helical angle of spring in suspension
Answers
The Suspension:
- The first priority of suspension design to carry the vehicle weight.
- Provide an elastic connection between load carrying systems and the axles or wheels.
-Damp their vibration.
- Adjust the position of the automobile body in motion (hold the wheels and their support in proper position during acceleration, braking and turning).
Suspension geometry is to provide:
-the best possible vehicle handling (controlling the vehicle in the desired track down the road).
-insure maximum tire life.
-insure comfortable ride.
Suspension Components:
-Elastic element (transmit vertical loads and lower level of dynamic loads).
-Lateral stabilizer
Guide (transmits forces to the load carrying system and distributes moments between the wheel and body).
Damper (during damping the mechanical energy of vibration changes into heat energy).
