The torsion bar adjusting device comprises a frame structure defining a collar with a slot in its lateral wall. Within the collar are first and second torsion bar end receiving sockets each having integrally radially outwardly extending arms passing through the slot in the collar. These arms may be individually moved to impart a rotation to the socket portion within the collar over a given number of degrees within the confines of the width of the slot. The arrangement is such that a center section of the housing for the torsion bars associated with the left and right rear wheels respectively in an automobile suspension system can be cut out and the adjusting device substituted for the section with the inner ends of the torsion bars being received in opposite ends of the collar to be secured to the respective torsion bar end receiving sockets. Individual movement of the radially extending arms will then impart a further twist to the associated torsion bars and thereby enable quick adjustment of the "stiffness" of the suspension system.

A vehicle suspension bushing assembly including an inner sleeve, a bearing, an intermediate sleeve, an outer sleeve, and a bushing. The inner sleeve extends longitudinally between first and second inner sleeve ends. The bearing extends annularly about the inner sleeve, the intermediate sleeve extends annularly about the bearing, and the outer sleeve extends annularly about the intermediate sleeve. The bushing is positioned radially between the outer sleeve and the intermediate sleeve. Axial retainers extend annularly about the first and second inner sleeve ends. The axial retainers are longitudinally moveable relative to the inner sleeve. The axial retainers have a preload feature including a flange segment that is resilient and deflects from an unbiased position when the axial retainers are in an uncompressed position to a biased position when the axial retainers are in a compressed position to apply a longitudinal preload force to the intermediate sleeve.

An axle attachment includes a guide element having a guide-side attachment region that is curved in a concave manner and a guide-side fixing region adjoining the guide-side attachment region along the curvature line, and a clamping element having a clamping-side attachment region that is curved in a concave manner and that is arranged opposite the guide-side attachment region, and a clamping-side fixing region. A fixing element engages into a guide-side fixing region and into an opposing clamping-side fixing region and forces the regions against each other in order to fix an axle body to the axle attachment in a force-fitting manner.
摘要:
A connecting arrangement for a stabilizer of a vehicle, with at least one lever that extends transversely to a longitudinal direction. The lever has a bearing eye provided with a non-circular inner circumferential contour. A torsion-bar spring with a rotation axis extends in the longitudinal direction. The torsion-bar spring has an outer circumferential contour, at least at one end, that matches the inner circumferential contour of the bearing eye and which fits into the bearing eye. The wall of the bearing eye is cut through by at least one slit extending in the longitudinal direction, by which two opposite wall sections of the wall are separated from one another. The two wall sections are pressed against the non-circular outer circumferential contour of the torsion-bar spring by at least one releasable clamping element.

An assembly (100) for a vehicle includes two longitudinal members (1, 2) and a crossmember (3) connected therebetween at a connection point (6) of the crossmember (3) to the longitudinal members (1, 2). The crossmember (3) is made predominantly of fiber composite material and the longitudinal members (1, 2) are made predominantly of a metal material. The connection point (6) between the crossmember (3) and the longitudinal member (1, 2) comprises an overlapping region (B), in which a connection segment (8) of the longitudinal member (1, 2), which is predominantly composed of metal material, overlaps at least in some segments with a part of the crossmember (3), which is predominantly composed of fiber composite material.
摘要:
A method and apparatus for performing an assembly operation. A tool may be macro-positioned relative to an exterior of a fuselage assembly. The tool may be micro-positioned relative to a particular location on the exterior of the fuselage assembly. An end effector is removably associated with an external robotic device associated with an external mobile platform. The tool is removably associated with the end effector. An assembly operation may be performed at the particular location on the panel using the tool.
摘要:
An offset washer for adjusting the camber angle in a vehicle is disclosed. The offset washer includes a body having an upper surface and a lower surface, an aperture extending through the body, and a protrusion having a longitudinal width different than the body thickness. The protrusion is configured to be inserted into a receiving aperture on a flange of a vehicle suspension system. The protrusion is defined by a formed upset defining a step in the material along a portion of the edge of the aperture, which is formed by upsetting the portion of the edge of the aperture when forming the aperture.

The invention relates to a steering unit, in particular for commercial vehicles, including an arm and a support element. The support element includes a support region and a support-side engagement region and comprises as a single piece, and the arm has an arm-side engagement region. A first engaging structure is provided on the arm-side engagement region, the engaging structure being attachable to a second engaging structure located on the support-side engagement region, and the support region includes a securing portion that fixes an air spring bellows and a rolling surface.
