Abstract: A suspension device includes a wheel supporting member configured to rotatably support a wheel. Two links respectively link the wheel supporting member and a vehicle-body side member and are disposed substantially in parallel in a vehicle width direction. At least one projecting portion extends from at least one of the two links towards the other link, and an elastic linking portion links the projecting portion of one of the links to at least one of the other link and the projecting portion of the other link. A toe angle adjusting device is configured to input a force in a direction oriented backward in the vehicle forward-backward direction to the wheel supporting member to adjust a toe-in angle of the wheel.

Abstract: A wheel suspension device for a vehicle includes a wheel supporting member rotatably supporting a wheel. The wheel supporting member is linked to a vehicle-body side by a first link and a second link, with the second link arranged substantially parallel to the first link in a vehicle width direction. The first link has a projecting portion, and at least one elastic linking portion links the projecting portion to the second link.

Abstract: An axle that rotatably supports a wheel is elastically coupled to trailing arms of a motor vehicle via an upper connecting point and first and second lower connecting points, where the trailing arms are elastically coupled to a body of the vehicle. The first and second lower connecting points are positioned lower than the upper connecting point and are mutually arranged to open a gap in a front-to-rear direction of the vehicle. The first and second lower connecting points have elastic members and are arranged so that principal elastic axes of their respective elastic members intersect at a location that is outside, in the lateral direction of the vehicle, of a grounding point of the wheel. In this manner, the running stability can be increased without relying on the rigidity of the elastic members, resulting in increased freedom in design of the elastic members.

Abstract: The formation on the surface of Mg-containing metal of a highly corrosion-resistant, highly rust-inhibiting, and strongly paint-adherent conversion coating, using a chromic acid free treatment bath, is achieved by treatment with a pH 2.0-5.0 aqueous bath that contains phosphoric acid, manganese ion, and amine, thereby forming a conversion coating that contains P--Mn and Mn--N and/or other nitrogen compounds.

Abstract: The present invention produces a highly corrosion-resistant, highly rust-inhibiting, and strongly paint-adherent conversion coating on the surface of magnesium-containing metals, and does so rapidly and at relatively low temperatures, using a substantially chromium-free conversion treatment bath.
