Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of amphibious vehicles and relates to a suspension device which adopts a single lever to realize the dual lifting of a suspension support frame and a wheel. Background Art
[0002] An amphibious vehicle combines the dual performance of a car and a boat, and can travel on land like a car, and can travel on water like a boat. In order to reduce the resistance of traveling in water, the mode switching of an amphibious vehicle requires changing the state of the wheels. There are some wheel lifting devices in the prior art, such as a wheel lifting mechanism for an amphibious vehicle (application number: 202311519267.7), which includes a bracket, the top of the bracket is connected to a lifting drive mechanism, and the bottom of the bracket is symmetrically installed with two or more shock absorbers relative to its center. The end of the shock absorber is connected to a cradle mechanism through a hinge, and one end of the cradle mechanism is used to connect to the vehicle body, and the other end of the two sets of cradle mechanisms are connected to the wheels through wheel brackets. Its lifting drive mechanism mainly drives the gear through a motor to lift the rack and drive the wheel to lift. The wheel lifting stroke of this technology depends on the length of the rack. For example, when driving in deep water, if the wheel lifting stroke is insufficient, it may cause the wheel to be partially immersed in water, increasing driving resistance and even affecting vehicle stability. In order to increase the wheel lifting height, it is necessary to increase the length of the rack. However, the length of the rack is limited by the internal space at the front and rear of the vehicle, resulting in the wheel lifting height being unable to meet the needs of driving in deep water.

The hydraulic cylinder 3 is used to control the lifting and lowering of the suspension support frame 2. In this example, the use of two hydraulic cylinders 3 can increase the lifting and lowering stability of the suspension support frame 2; the swing arm includes an upper swing arm 7 and a lower swing arm 8. The lower part of the lower swing arm 8 is provided with a swing arm hinge seat 81.
