Trailing arm rear suspension

In life, many people like to exercise, because the process of exercise is really enjoyable. Although exercise can make people feel tired, taking a shower after sweating all over will make people feel refreshed. Moreover, after exercise, the muscles of the body will be particularly developed, which will give people a strong feeling. The drag rear suspension is a kind of exercise equipment. The following editor will give you a detailed introduction to this equipment.

We will call the trailing arm suspension semi-independent suspension. From the perspective of the major classification of suspension, all suspensions can be divided into two categories, namely: independent suspension and non-independent suspension. But on a single trailing arm torsion beam suspension, these two categories become somewhat blurred.

From the perspective of suspension structure, it is an absolute non-independent suspension, because the left and right longitudinal rocker arms are welded together by a thick torsion beam. However, from the perspective of suspension performance, this suspension achieves the performance of a full-trailer independent suspension with higher stability.

The trailing arm suspension itself has the disadvantages of non-independent suspension but also has the advantages of independent suspension. The biggest advantage of the trailing arm suspension is that there is more space for the left and right wheels, and the camber angle of the car body does not change, and the shock absorber does not produce bending stress, so the friction is small. The comfort and handling of the trailing arm suspension are limited. When braking, in addition to the heavier front of the car sinking, the rear wheels of the trailing arm suspension will also sink to balance the body, and it is unable to provide precise geometric control.

Main advantages: simple and practical structure, minimal space occupation and low manufacturing cost.

Main disadvantages: poor load-bearing performance, weak anti-rolling ability, poor shock absorption performance, limited comfort

Applicable models: small and medium-sized cars, low-end SUV rear suspension

Different manufacturers have different names for this type of suspension: such as: longitudinal arm torsion beam independent suspension, longitudinal arm torsion beam non-independent suspension, H-type longitudinal swing arm suspension, etc. Ultimately they are all the same suspension structure – trailing arm suspension, but with slightly different tuning.
