Patent number: 6623020Abstract: Provided is a vehicle suspension member assembly suitable for a multi-link type rear suspension system. The suspension member assembly includes a pair of front and rear cross members and a pair of side members which are joined to constitute a generally rectangular suspension member subassembly. A pair of rear resilient supports are disposed at the opposite longitudinal end portions of the rear cross member. A pair of front resilient supports are disposed at the front end portions of the side members. The rear ends of the side members are attached to the front surface of the rear cross member. The front cross member is disposed between the side members and have opposite longitudinal ends attached to the inner side surfaces of the side members. To the rear cross members are provided a pair of brackets by means of which a rear connecting portion of a lower link is attached to the suspension member assembly.Type: GrantFiled: June 8, 2000Date of Patent: September 23, 2003Assignee: Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.Inventor: Masaharu Satou

Patent number: 6179309Abstract: In order to reduce a partially concentrated load affecting a spring seat by repulsion of the coil spring, an edge of the upper end of the coil spring is disposed against a portion of the spring seat having a relatively low solidity. Therefore, it is possible to eliminate the problem that the coils of the coil spring interfere with each other if a mid-portion of the coil spring in vertical direction is offset to the side to provide a partially concentrated load.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 1998Date of Patent: January 30, 2001Assignee: Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masaharu Satou, Yutaka Hozumi

Patent number: 6076841Abstract: In order to simplify mounting a coil spring to a vehicle body, a connecting device, which connects a spring bracket to the vehicle body, is disposed at an inner circumferential portion of the coil spring. This eliminates the problem that the spring bracket needs a space for connecting to the vehicle body about an outer circumference of itself.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 1998Date of Patent: June 20, 2000Assignee: Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masaharu Satou, Yutaka Hozumi

Patent number: 5765858Abstract: A rear wheel suspension arrangement for an automotive vehicle provides an axle housing rotatably mounting rear vehicular road wheels, each of the wheels having a wheel center. At each wheel, a radius rod which extends forwardly and inwardly, as viewed in a normal forward direction of the vehicle, is connected to the axle housing at a first articulated connection at a position lower than the wheel center. Further, a front lateral link, extending generally transversely to the forward direction of the vehicle is connected to the axle housing at a second articulated connection also located below the wheel center. In addition, a rear lateral link, positioned rearwardly of the front lateral link and extending in the traverse direction of the vehicle, is connected to the axle housing at a third articulated connection also located below the wheel center. The suspension structure also includes an upper arm having an articulated connection to the axle housing at a position above the wheel center.Type: GrantFiled: September 13, 1996Date of Patent: June 16, 1998Assignee: Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Kenji Kawagoe, Takuya Murakami, Masaharu Satou, Takaaki Uno, Hideo Aimoto, Tamiyoshi Kasahara, Hiroshi Nagaoka

Patent number: 5702122Abstract: An axle supporting member for a rear wheel is suspended to a suspension member by an upper link system which includes an A-arm and a side rod. The forward lower link member and the side rod are respectively arranged in front and rear of a vertical plane passing through a rotary axis of the rear wheel, while a suspension spring and a shock absorber are seated on the forward lower link member positioned in front of the above-mentioned vertical plane with respect to the longitudinal direction of the vehicle. Accordingly, an initial load transmitted from the suspension spring is mainly borne by the front end part of the suspension member, so that an initial load exerted to the rear end part of the suspension member becomes smaller. Thereby, it is possible to reduce the resilient deformation of bushings in the front and rear parts of the suspension member upon application of a wind-up input force.Type: GrantFiled: October 6, 1995Date of Patent: December 30, 1997Assignee: Nissan Motor Co., Ltd.Inventors: Masaharu Satou, Tamiyoshi Kasahara, Takuya Murakami, Kenji Kawagoe, Takaaki Uno, Hideo Aimoto, Tamaki Horiuchi
