2. MagneRide - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MagneRide

   MagneRide is an automotive adaptive suspension with magnetorheological damper system developed by the Delphi Automotive corporation, [1] [2] that uses magnetically controlled dampers, or shock absorbers, for a highly adaptive ride.

3. Pull-rod suspension - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pull-rod_suspension

   As such, push-rod suspension systems allow for much greater high-speed stability, much lower levels of body-roll, and a much lower centre of gravity for the vehicle. [7] For pull-rod suspension systems, the only difference is the orientation of the rocker arms. In a push-rod system, the rocker arms are placed at the highest point in the assembly.

4. Anti-roll bar - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-roll_bar

   The first production car to use a semi-active anti-roll bar was the 1988 Mitsubishi Mirage Cyborg. The 16-valve turbo model's "Dual Mode Suspension" has a dashboard- operated hydraulic actuator built into the front anti-roll bar link, allowing it to toggle between sport and touring modes. [ 5 ]

5. Magnetic gear - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetic_Gear

   The magnetic gear is a magnetic coupling device that renders a mechanical ratio between two magnetically-coupled devices such that: They have a ratio of rotational or translational movement between input and output, which may be 1 in the case of a pure magnetic coupling or one of many gear ratios in a magnetic gearbox .

6. Steering linkage - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steering_linkage

   The steering linkage which connects the steering gearbox to the front wheels consists of a number of rods. These rods are connected with a socket arrangement similar to a ball joint, called a tie rod end, allowing the linkage to move back and forth freely so that the steering effort will not interfere with the vehicles up-and-down motion as the ...

7. Panhard rod - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Panhard_rod

   The Panhard rod is a simple device designed to prevent lateral movement. [2] It consists of a rigid bar running sideways in the same plane as the axle, connecting one end of the axle to the car body or chassis on the opposite side of the vehicle. The bar attaches on either end with pivots that let it swivel upwards and downwards only, limiting ...

8. Combi - Wikipedia

   Combi (car style), also known as a station wagon or estate car; Combi coupé, a term used by Saab for some of its hatchback automobile models; Combi steamer, an oven type used for baking with dry heat, steam heat, or a combination of both to yield humidity control; Kia Combi or Asia Combi, a series of mini-buses built from 1983 to 2002; Truvelo ...

9. Magnetorquer - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetorquer

   A magnetorquer or magnetic torquer (also known as a torque rod) is a satellite system for attitude control, detumbling, and stabilization built from electromagnetic coils. The magnetorquer creates a magnetic dipole that interfaces with an ambient magnetic field, usually Earth's , so that the counter-forces produced provide useful torque .
