  2. Dubonnet suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubonnet_suspension

    The system featured an encased coil spring and shock absorber, which sealed in the oil needed to lubricate and protect the suspension parts. This was also the weakness of the layout, as any leaks would have negative effects on ride and durability. Front right suspension unit (forward direction to the lower left)

  3. Car suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Car_suspension

    The Tilting Suspension System [27] (also known as the Leaning Suspension System) is not a different type or geometry of construction; moreover, it is a technology addition to the conventional suspension system. This kind of suspension system mainly consists of independent suspension (e.g., MacPherson strut, A-arm (double wishbone)). With the ...

  4. Harmonic damper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harmonic_damper

    The damper will be fitted at the front of the engine (opposite the clutch or transmission) just beyond the cover of the timing chain, gears, or belt, and behind the accessory drive pulley (which may carry one or more V, serpentine, or cogged belts.) In older vehicles the pulley and damper were separate units that were bolted together.

  5. MacPherson strut - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/MacPherson_strut

    The MacPherson strut is a type of automotive suspension system that uses the top of a telescopic damper as the upper steering pivot. It is widely used in the front suspension of modern vehicles. The name comes from American automotive engineer Earle S. MacPherson, who invented and developed the design.

  6. Sprocket - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sprocket

    The sprocket wheels a, b, and c engage and transport the film. a and b move with uniform velocity and c indexes each frame of the film into place for projection. Sprockets are used in the film transport mechanisms of movie projectors and movie cameras. [5] In this case, the sprocket wheels engage film perforations in the film stock.

  7. 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.

  8. Magnetorheological damper - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetorheological_damper

    A magnetorheological damper or magnetorheological shock absorber is a damper filled with magnetorheological fluid, which is controlled by a magnetic field, usually using an electromagnet.

  9. Damping torque - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Damping_torque

    Damping torque is a physical process of controlling a system's movement through producing motion that opposes the natural oscillation of a system. Similar to friction, it only acts when a system is in motion, and is not present if the system is at rest. [2] Its primary purpose is to enable fast and accurate readings for an oscillating system.
