Stabilizer device

Abstract

Abstract PURPOSE:To improve reliability for restraining a rolling motion by coupling a piston having a communication hole to a cylinder fixed to one end of the fitting part of a spring lower member and a stabilizer bar, and opening the communication hole when said piston is at a predetermined position. CONSTITUTION:When a shutoff valve 48 has been operated to shut off a hydraulic circuit 47, a plate member 41 is elastically deformed due to the energized forces of springs 45 and 46 and the communication hole of a piston 38 opens, provided that the piston 38 is located off a predetermined position. In other words, the piston 38 stops after sliding to the neighborhood of the predetermined position and turns into a fixed position. Therefore, the fitting part of a stabilizer bar 2 and a lower arm 4 are fixed at an established neutral interval. According to the aforesaid constitution, a stability power can be supplied to equalize the suspension positions of both right and left wheels in turning, thereby improving the reliability of restraining a rolling motion.
