[0035] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 5 A suspension system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0036] like Figures 1 to 5As shown, the suspension system 100 according to the embodiment of the utility model includes: a subframe 1 and a driving component 2 and a brake component 3 installed on the subframe 1, the driving component 2 includes a first driving member 21; the brake component 3 includes a first brake component 31; the suspension system 100 also includes a first cantilever 4 and a spring member 6, the first cantilever 4 is transmission-connected between the first driving member 21 and the first brake component 31, the spring member 6 includes a first spring member 61, the upper end of the first spring member 61 is fixedly connected to the vehicle body, and the lower end is fixedly connected to the first cantilever 4, the first driving member 21 is used to drive the first cantilever 4 to move toward the direction of the first brake component 31 or away from the first brake component 31.
