What are the advantages of rear independent suspension? Are independent suspension really better tha

Sihai: I believe that many car owners will be familiar with the suspension adjustment and other issues in advance. Good suspension and chassis adjustment give a different driving experience. Many car owners hold the view that they will never buy a 'scooter' when buying a car. Is that right? In fact, there is no problem. After all, the rigid short board of the scooter is there, but the independent suspension of the torsion beam is really poor?

At present, when we buy a car, many people attribute the performance and comfort of the car to the structure of the suspension. The general psychology is that the independent suspension is more comfortable than the non independent suspension, and the control is good. But is it true?

Suspension as a vital structure of the whole vehicle, its performance determines the texture of the whole vehicle, so a good and truly suitable suspension is the most consistent with the vehicle balance.

What are the structural components of the suspension?

Suspension is the general term of all the force transmission connecting devices between the vehicle frame and the axle or wheel. The main function of suspension is to transmit all the forces and moments acting on the wheel and the vehicle body, such as supporting force, braking force and driving force. The main structure is spring and shock absorber.

What kind of suspension do you have now?

Simply speaking, it can be divided into independent suspension and torsion beam type non independent suspension. If it is further subdivided, independent suspension can be divided into single longitudinal arm type, multi link type, cross arm type, candle type, McPherson type, etc. in order to be simple and easy to understand, I will all be classified as independent suspension.

independent suspension

The so-called independent suspension means that each wheel is connected to the frame or body through suspension separately. When one side of the vehicle encounters fluctuation, it will not affect the dynamics of other wheels. The relative advantage is that the wheels do not disturb each other, will not affect the whole vehicle due to potholes, and greatly increases the ground adhesion of single wheel. And it's the broken axle, which makes the body height lower.

Torsion beam independent rear suspension

Torsion beam type independent rear suspension is the first suspension mode we have contact with. What we called plate suspension earlier is this kind of suspension. Simply speaking, the rear two wheels are connected to a rear axle, one side of the wheel fluctuates, the other side will also be affected, which will lead to the whole tail fluctuates, simple structure, low cost, easy maintenance, small wheel inclination and wear process The utility model has the advantages of small degree and small occupation space, and is generally used for small SUVs to save space and some cheap cars.

Is independent suspension better than non independent suspension?

When buying a car, most of the consumers are still aware of the potential hard condition of independent suspension. They think that it is necessary to have independent suspension no matter how big the car is, but the quality of the suspension is not determined by the so-called structure, but by the balance of the suspension relative to the whole car. Different suspensions have different advantages and disadvantages in different cars.

How to choose the right suspension when buying a car?

What car is equipped with what suspension

Manufacturers have many ways to determine the suspension selection, which will be determined by cost, comfort, model positioning and other factors, such as Jinke, Encino, Yibo and other small SUVs and some household vehicles. In order to save space and cost, most of them will use torsion beam independent rear suspension. Some luxury cars will use multi link independent suspension to ensure comfort, but for many performance cars, in order to pursue better tracking and handling, they will often use independent suspension with more complex structure to adjust, and the specific suspension should be selected according to the model and demand.

Manufacturer's training ability for chassis

If you have faith, you can turn a stone into gold. When everyone is pursuing the consumption demand and replacing the independent suspension, the French chassis master is still using the torque beam independent suspension, such as Citroen Tianyi C5, which is matched with PHC hydraulic damping system. After actual driving, we will know that the original torque beam can also be more comfortable than most of the independent suspension, because compared with many cars equipped with independent rear suspension, its filter The shock texture, comfort and stability are very high. In addition, almost all Peugeot systems are not independent suspension with torsion beam, so the chassis power of the manufacturer is also one of the criteria for judging the quality of the suspension.

Conclusion:

In general, the hard answer is that the stability of independent suspension for some potholed road sections is better than that of torsion beam independent suspension, with low center of gravity and high adjustable limit. But whether it is really good or not depends on the suspension adjustment and other issues mentioned above. Therefore, the suspension is not a complex structure, it should be comprehensively evaluated from various factors.
