  2. Car suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_suspension

    Commonly, springs are mounted on control arms, swing arms or some other pivoting suspension member. Consider the example above, where the spring rate was calculated to be 500 lbs/inch (87.5 N/mm), if one were to move the wheel 1 in (2.5 cm) (without moving the car), the spring more than likely compresses a smaller amount.

  3. Control arm - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_arm

    In automotive suspension, a control arm, also known as an A-arm, is a hinged suspension link between the chassis and the suspension upright or hub that carries the wheel. In simple terms, it governs a wheel's vertical travel, allowing it to move up or down when driving over bumps, into potholes, or otherwise reacting to the irregularities of a ...

  4. Oshkosh TAK-4 Independent Suspension System - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oshkosh_TAK-4_Independent...

    This is an independent suspension design using two wishbone-shaped arms to locate the wheel. Each arm has two mounting points to the subframe and one joint at the knuckle, and in the case of TAK-4 independent suspension system these arms are of unequal length. The shock absorber and spring mount to the lower arm to control vertical movement ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paratrooper_(ride)

    The Paratrooper, also known as the "Parachute Ride" or "Umbrella Ride", is a type of fairground ride. It is a ride where seats suspended below a wheel rotate at an angle. The seats are free to rock sideways and swing out under centrifugal force as the wheel rotates. Invariably, the seats on the Paratrooper ride have a round shaped umbrella or ...

  7. Double wishbone suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_wishbone_suspension

    A single wishbone or A-arm can also be used in various other suspension types, such as variations of the MacPherson strut. The upper arm is usually shorter to induce negative camber as the suspension jounces (rises), and often this arrangement is titled an "SLA" or "short, long arms" suspension. When the vehicle is in a turn, body roll results ...

  8. Active suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Active_suspension

    An active suspension is a type of automotive suspension that uses an onboard control system to control the vertical movement of the vehicle's wheels and axles relative to the chassis or vehicle frame, rather than the conventional passive suspension that relies solely on large springs to maintain static support and dampen the vertical wheel movements caused by the road surface.

  9. MacPherson strut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacPherson_strut

    Ride suffers because the shock absorber has almost the same vertical motion as the wheel, so there is relatively little leverage to break the stiction in the seals. A standard single pivot MacPherson strut also tends to have positive scrub where the center of the steering axis is offset from the center of the front tires, which results in ...
