Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of automobile suspension equipment, in particular to a front wheel shock absorber tower top balancing pull rod mechanism. Background Art

[0002] The front wheel shock absorber tower top balance bar is an important part of the vehicle suspension system, and it plays a key role in improving the vehicle's handling and stability. The front wheel shock absorber tower top balance bar, commonly known as the "top bar", is installed at the top of the front shock absorber tower. Its main function is to enhance the overall rigidity of the vehicle's front structure, especially when the vehicle is turning.

[0003] In racing cars and high-performance cars, the use of front wheel shock tower top balance rod is very common, because it can significantly improve the vehicle's handling performance. In civilian cars, especially those that focus on handling and driving experience, this technology has also gradually been adopted.

[0004] At present, the structure of the balance rod on the top of the front wheel shock absorber tower mainly includes a rod body, with holes opened at both ends of the rod body, and the tops of the two front wheel shock absorber towers are connected by bolts to improve the overall rigidity of the front structure of the vehicle. However, when passing through uneven and bumpy roads, the strong rigid connection will reduce the riding comfort because the shock absorber tower absorbs the vibration from the road surface, bears and transmits the impact force from the road surface.

[0005] Through searching, the Chinese utility model patent with application number 201921924408.2 discloses a stress-adjusting top bar, which includes two triangular fixed bases, both of which are provided with fixing holes at their corners, and a length adjustment mechanism is provided between the two triangular fixed bases. Although the problem of adjusting the length of the rod body is solved, the rod body is the main stress adjustment mechanism, and when the centrifugal force is too large, it is easy to cause damage to the thread, which is not worth the loss. Summary of the invention

[0006] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a front wheel shock absorber tower top balancing tie rod mechanism to solve the problems raised in the above background technology.

[0007] To achieve the above object, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0008] The balancing rod mechanism at the top of the front wheel shock absorber tower comprises a balancing rod and two connecting seats. The two ends of the balancing rod are respectively provided with raised portions, and pin holes are opened on the raised portions. Three connecting holes are opened at the bottom of the connecting seat, and the three connecting holes are arranged in a triangle. The connecting seat is fixedly connected to the top of the front wheel shock absorber tower through the connecting holes. Two clamping arms are arranged on the connecting seat, and through holes are opened on the clamping arms. The raised portion is clamped between the two clamping arms and connected to the two clamping arms through a pin shaft.

[0009] By adopting the above structure, when the vehicle is turning at high speed, the centrifugal force will cause the vehicle body to produce lateral distortion. At this time, the balancing rod mechanism on the top of the front wheel shock absorber tower is rigidly connected to the shock absorber tower, which effectively offsets the distortion force and reduces the resulting frame deformation. When passing through bumpy roads, the shock absorber tower bears and transmits the impact force from the road surface, and part of the impact force is transmitted to the balancing rod mechanism on the top of the front wheel shock absorber tower. The balancing rod will swing slightly to offset the vibration force and enhance comfort. The balancing rod mechanism on the top of the front wheel shock absorber tower not only improves the vehicle's cornering controllability, but also improves the vehicle's stability when passing through bumps. At the same time, the split structure is adopted, which is simple to install and operate compared to the integral balancing rod on the top of the front wheel shock absorber tower.

[0010] The present invention is further improved in that the balancing rod is in a semicircular arc shape as a whole to adapt to the overall layout of the engine compartment and improve space utilization, while having better stress absorption performance than a straight rod.

[0011] The present invention is further improved in that both ends of the balance rod are provided with square holes for connecting to the engine compartment air intake pipe to meet the need of air intake from the engine compartment cover.

[0012] The front wheel shock absorber tower top balancing rod mechanism proposed in the present invention can effectively offset the centrifugal force when the vehicle turns, reduce the resulting frame deformation, and prevent the tower top from being deformed or damaged under high load, thereby ensuring driving safety and improving the smoothness and comfort of driving on bumpy roads.
