How much do you know about Control Arm Suspension?

Feb. 20, 2020

As a Zotye Control Arm Suspension Manufacturer, share with you. The control arm serves as a guide and force transmitting element of the automobile suspension system, and transmits various forces acting on the wheels to the vehicle body, while ensuring that the wheels move according to a certain trajectory. The control arm elastically connects the wheel and the vehicle body through a ball hinge or a bushing, respectively. The control arm should have sufficient rigidity, strength, and service life.

The suspension system refers to the entire support system composed of springs and shock absorbers between the body and the tire. The function of the suspension system is to support the body and improve the riding experience. Different suspension settings will make the driver feel different.

The seemingly simple suspension system combines a variety of forces, which determines the stability, comfort and safety of the car, and is one of the key components of modern cars.

When the car is driving, the suspension system will make a "squeaking" sound every time it shakes up and down, and the noise will increase when the road is uneven, which indicates that the suspension system has failed, which may be the shock absorber damaged or the shock absorber rubber sleeve damaged.

Brake system Brake fluid cannot be mixed. Most cars on the market are equipped with two sets of brake systems: foot-controlled service brake and hand-controlled parking brake. If the rubber sleeve is severely damaged, repair and replace it with the shock absorber.

Suspension system shock absorbers should work hot The suspension system not only affects the car's riding comfort, but also affects other properties such as passability, stability and adhesion performance. It turned out that the suspension system included shock absorbers, springs, anti-roll bars, connecting rods and other parts. When cornering, especially when turning sharply, the body rolls too much, indicating that the shock absorber, stabilizer bar, or components of the guide mechanism are damaged.

Structure of automobile control arm

1. Lateral stabilizer link

When the suspension is installed, one end of the stabilizer bar link is connected to the horizontal stabilizer bar through a rubber bushing, and the other end is connected to the control arm or barrel shock absorber through a rubber bushing or ball hinge. The horizontal stabilizer bar link is symmetrical in the home. Use it to improve the stability of operation.

2.Tie rod

When the suspension is installed, the rubber bushing at one end of the tie rod is connected to the frame or body, and the rubber bushing at the other end is connected to the wheel hub. Such control arms are mostly used in automobile multi-link suspensions and tie rods of steering systems. They mainly bear lateral loads and guide wheel movements.

5.Fork (V) arm

This type of automobile control arm is mostly used for the lower arm of the double wishbone independent suspension and the lower arm of the live McPherson suspension. The fork structure of the arm body mainly transmits lateral loads.

6. Triangle arm

This type of automobile control arm is mostly used for the lower arm of the front suspension McPherson suspension, which is used to transmit lateral and longitudinal loads and control the relative movement of the wheels and the body.
