  • Publication number: 20150151598
    Abstract: A motor vehicle wheel suspension is configured so that the wheel suspension is stiff for transverse forces and elastic for longitudinal forces by running an inner connection line connecting the rear guide bearing to the front guide bearing, in a projection having a vertical projection direction and a horizontal projection plane, substantially in parallel to an outer connection line connecting the lower coupler bearing to the lower ball joint.

  • Patent number: 6382649
    Abstract: A suspension for a wheel in a motor vehicle, such as a passenger car, having a link which is made of fiber composite and is mounted at one end, by means of a mounting, on a chassis of the vehicle and at the other end holds the wheel, and having spring means which are made of fiber composite and support the link on the chassis in a resilient manner. In order to obtain a particularly compact construction for the wheel suspension, the mounting has a bearing in which a bearing part, which is fastened to the chassis, is mounted such that it can be adjusted relative to a bearing part, which is fastened to the link, by pivoting about a pivot axis, and the spring means having a torsion-bar suspension which extends coaxially to the pivot axis and is fastened at one end to the chassis or to the bearing part fixed to the chassis, and is fastened at the other end to the link or to the bearing part fixed to the link.
