Embodiment Construction

[0034] In the different figures, identical components always bear the same reference numerals, so they are also usually only described once.

[0035] figure 1 and 2 A partial sectional view of an exemplary embodiment of a wheel suspension 1 that can be used, for example, in a passenger car, transport vehicle or truck is shown in a highly schematic manner. Here, only one half of the wheel suspension 1 is shown in each case, which is symmetrical with respect to the center plane M of the vehicle. Here, the two wheels 2 are connected to the body 20 via spring units 3 . The spring unit 3 is integrally formed from fiber composite material and has a leaf spring part 3.1 which extends in the transverse direction (ie along the Y axis) over a substantial part of the vehicle width. exist figure 1 , the leaf spring part 3.1 is shown rectilinear, more precisely parallel to the Y-axis; however, it can also have a curvature in the X-Z plane, which varies in particular according to static...

Abstract

A vehicle wheel suspension (1) for a vehicle includes a spring unit (3) suspending a vehicle wheel (2) on a vehicle body (20). The spring unit including a leaf spring portion (3.1) extending along a Y-axis. In order to provide an improved wheel suspension with a transverse leaf spring, according to the invention, the spring unit (3) has a wheel carrier part (3.3) for receiving the vehicle wheel (2), which is arranged on the end face of the leaf spring part (3.1) and is designed at least partially in one piece with the leaf spring part.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a wheel suspension having the features stated in the preamble of claim 1 . Background technique [0002] Different types of springs are used in the wheel suspension of modern motor vehicles, by means of which the actual bodywork is connected to the wheels of the vehicle. Here, leaf springs are used in addition to coil springs. Especially in the case of rigid axles, longitudinal leaf springs are used, which run along the longitudinal axis of the vehicle and are usually used for the suspension of individual wheels. Furthermore, transverse leaf springs are known which extend along the transverse axis and are used for the spring suspension of two opposing wheels. The ends of the transverse leaf springs can be mounted, for example by friction or by a form-fit connection, on a wheel carrier which rotatably receives the wheel. The transverse leaf springs are attached to the body in the central area. In addition to leaf springs mad...
