Independent wheel suspension, in particular for a vehicle rear wheel, and its application in relation to a driven wheel

Abstract

Abstract The invention concerns non-directive wheel suspensions for vehicles, producing a micro-lock when cornering. The suspension comprises a wheel support (10) connected to the structure (80) by a connecting rod (30) and by two triangles (20a, 20b), two articulated joints of which (21a, 21b; 22a, 22b) are in the neighbourhood of the transverse vertical plane (12) passing through the wheel centre, and the third articulated joint of which (23a, 23b) has a flexibility considerably greater than that of the others. The connecting rod is almost parallel to the plane (12) and to the triangles, and has a length little different from the distance (21b, 22b). Application to the suspension of driving wheels. <IMAGE>
