TRIANGULAR LEVER OF SUSPENSION Russian patent published in 2007 - IPC B60G7/00 

FIELD: transport engineering.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to triangular lever used in suspension of vehicle axles. Said triangular lever is designed for articulated connection of automobile axle with its frame, and it has two levers which, when being interconnected on one of end section, form housing of rubber-metal support by means of which lever is attached to automobile axle and which has axle with spherical surface and elastomer member enclosing the axle at least on section of arrangement of its spherical surface. elastomer member is fitted in cavity specially made in housing. two pressure rings fitted form axial outer sides of elastomer member in housing cavity are installed for moving towards one another by clamping device bracing them through thrust surfaces of housing adjoining outer sides of pressure rings pointed in different directions.

EFFECT: provision of preliminary compression (preload) of rubber-metal support in axial and radial direction making it possible to take up heavy forces owing to increase in rigidity.
