[0044] The upper and lower ends of the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4 are ball-jointed to the vehicle frame 5 and the upper cross arm 2 (or hinged through a pin shaft). The upper and lower ends of the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4 are respectively provided with suspension cylinder ball joint pins, and the end of the suspension cylinder ball joint pin is provided with a suspension cylinder ball joint. The suspension cylinder ball joint at the lower end of the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4 is installed on the secondary ball joint bearing in the inner cavity 251 of the top bearing. The suspension cylinder ball joint pins are respectively arranged on the front and rear sides of the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4.

[0045] A rectangular cross beam 51 is arranged at the lower part of the vehicle frame 5, and a vehicle frame support 52 is arranged at the upper part. The vehicle frame support 52 is provided with a vehicle frame support inner cavity, and the vehicle frame support inner cavity is provided with a vehicle frame ball joint bearing. The end face of the vehicle frame support 52 is provided with a plurality of vehicle frame support threaded holes, and a support pressing plate is arranged on the side part of the end face of the vehicle frame support 52.

[0046] The width A between the first fork arm 22 and the second fork arm 23 is greater than the width B between the third fork arm 32 and the fourth fork arm 33. The upper cross arm 2 serves to connect the front axle 1, the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4, and the vehicle frame 5. During the operation of the mining dump truck, the load borne by the upper cross arm 2 is greater than that borne by the lower cross arm 3. Therefore, the width A between the first fork arm 22 and the second fork arm 23 is designed to be greater than the width B between the third fork arm 32 and the fourth fork arm 33, and the cross-sectional areas of the components are reasonably distributed according to the force conditions of the upper cross arm 2 and the lower cross arm 3. Additionally, with the width A being greater than the width B, the width of the rectangular cross beam 51 can be effectively reduced. On the one hand, the weight of the vehicle frame 5 is reduced, and on the other hand, space is provided for installing the steering mechanism at the rear of the rectangular cross beam 51.

[0047] As Figure 6 shown, it is a schematic diagram of the force analysis of the double cross-arm suspension of the mining dump truck in the present utility model.

[0048] The connection point C between the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4 and the vehicle frame 5, the connection point D between the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4 and the upper cross arm 2, the connection point E between the upper cross arm 2 and the front axle 1, and the connection point F between the lower cross arm 3 and the front axle 1 are in a plane and are all spherical hinge connections. Also, the fourth fork arm 33 is in front of the second fork arm 23.

[0049] The connection point E between the upper cross arm 2 and the front axle 1 and the connection point F between the lower cross arm 3 and the front axle 1 together form the kingpin axis EF. When the vehicle is fully loaded, the sum of the angle between the kingpin axis EF and the vertical plane and the angle (acute angle) between the kingpin axis EF and the front axle axis 16 of the front axle 1 is 90 degrees. When the vehicle is fully loaded, the sum of the angle between the kingpin axis EF and the vertical plane and the angle between the kingpin axis EF and the front axle axis 16 is 90 degrees, that is, the camber angle of the front wheel is 0 degrees; when the vehicle is unloaded, the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4 extends, the kingpin axis EF rotates counterclockwise, and the sum of the angle between the kingpin axis EF and the vertical plane and the angle between the kingpin axis EF and the front axle axis 16 is less than 90 degrees, that is, a certain camber angle is generated at the front wheel. This ensures that the front wheel has a certain camber angle when the vehicle is unloaded and the camber angle of the front wheel is 0 degrees when the vehicle is fully loaded, making the tires perpendicular to the ground when the vehicle is fully loaded, effectively reducing tire wear and extending the service life of the tires.

[0050] The connection point C between the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4 and the vehicle frame 5 and the connection point D between the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4 and the upper cross arm 2 together form the oil-gas suspension cylinder axis CD. The angle between the oil-gas suspension cylinder axis CD and the vertical plane is 15 - 25 degrees when the vehicle is fully loaded; on the one hand, it ensures that the suspension reasonably distributes the vertical stiffness and the lateral stiffness, and on the other hand, it keeps the cantilever length of the vehicle frame support 52 within a reasonable range, extending the service life of the vehicle frame 5.

[0051] The axes of the first inner hole 221 and the second inner hole 231 are coaxial, which can ensure that the upper cross arm 2 rotates up and down around the vehicle frame 5. The axes of the third inner hole 321 and the fourth inner hole 331 are coaxial, which can ensure that the lower cross arm 3 rotates up and down around the vehicle frame 5. The common axis of the first inner hole 221 and the second inner hole 231 is parallel to the common axis of the third inner hole 321 and the fourth inner hole 331. When the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4 is in the extension or compression stroke, the connection point C between the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4 and the vehicle frame 5, the connection point D between the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4 and the upper cross arm 2, the connection point E between the upper cross arm 2 and the front axle 1, and the connection point F between the lower cross arm 3 and the front axle 1 are always in a plane, which can prevent the generation of additional forces or torques and reduce the loads on each component.

[0052] The connection point D between the oil-gas suspension cylinder 4 and the upper cross arm 2 is not on the kingpin axis EF, which provides space for the installation of the rim.

[0053] The terms used in the present invention are illustrative and exemplary rather than restrictive. Since the present invention can be embodied in many forms without departing from the spirit or essence of the technical solution, it should be understood that the above embodiments are not limited to any of the foregoing details, but should be broadly construed within the spirit and scope defined by the appended claims. Therefore, all changes and modifications falling within the scope of the claims or their equivalents should be covered by the appended claims.
