How Car Suspensions Work | Car Suspension System Explained
With car suspension animation in the video, the contents include
1) Car suspension components: steering knuckle, damper, spring, control arm, anti-sway bar and the tyre. The two principal components of a suspension system: springs and dampers. There are 4 types of springs currently used in vehicle suspension systems today, coil spring, leaf spring, torsion bar and air spring. Springs are energy storage units. They are good at absorbing the energy, but not good at dissipating the energy. A smooth ride requires both springs and the dampers, the Shock absorber or suspension struts.
2) Wheel alignment and how it would help a car suspension system: camber, caster and toe. It introduces positive and negative camber, steering axis inclination, positive and negative caster, toe in and toe out.
3) Independent and dependent car suspension systems: details explained on MacPherson Strut Suspension, Double wishbone suspension, Multi-link suspension (5-link suspension and solid axle multi-link system) , Trailing-arm suspension, common rear suspensions (Solid Axle Leaf Spring; solid axle coil spring) , Torsion beam suspension and air suspension.
