Abstract

1389149 Rear axle suspensions GENERAL MOTORS CORP 29 Nov 1973 [23 Dec 1972] 55415/73 Heading B7D A motor vehicle rear axle suspension system comprises longitudinal control arms 18 rigidly secured to axle tubes 16 which have their inboard ends rotatably mounted in a differential housing 10, and cantilever arms 22 rigidly secured to the axle tubes 16 and interconnected by a cross-member 24 pivotally mounted on the differential housing 10, the cantilever arms 22 or the connections between the arms 22 and the cross-member 24 being made sufficiently resilient to take up changes in the lateral spacing of each axle tube and the cross-member as occur during roll or other conditions causing unequal deflections of the suspension. Each control arm 18 has a triangular configuration providing a wide base 18c which is welded to the respective axle tube 16. The axle tubes 16 are rotatably mounted in lateral extensions 12 of the differential housing 10 by plain plastics bearings or ball and needle roller bearings. Bosses 19 at the forward ends of the control arms 18 are pivotally connected by bonded rubber/metal bushes to the frame structure 21 of the vehicle. Coil springs 20 and coaxial dampers 20a are arranged between the control arms 18 and the frame structure. As shown in Fig. 4, the cross-member 24 is pivotally mounted on the differential housing 10 by a bonded rubber/metal bushing 25 which acts in torsion to provide roll stabilization, and each cantilever arm 22 is connected to the crossmember by a bonded rubber/metal bushing 26 having cavities 26d arranged to lower the resistance offered to lateral movement of the arm.
