Detailed Implementation

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] See appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 5 The non-independent rear suspension includes: a rear drive axle 100 with drive wheels 101 at both ends; a mounting bracket 200 fixedly connected to the bottom of the rear drive axle 100; a trailing arm 300, one end of which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the mounting bracket 200, and the other end of which is hinged to the bottom of the vehicle body 103; a damper 400, the lower end of which is hinged to the mounting bracket 200, and the upper end of which is hinged to the bottom of the vehicle body 103; and a coil spring 500, the lower end of which is engaged with the upper part of the rear drive axle 100, and the upper end of which is engaged with the bottom of the vehicle body 103.

[0026] Thus, the rear drive axle 100 has a rod-like structure, which drives the wheels. The drive wheels 101 at both ends of the rear drive axle 100 drive the vehicle body 103. The mounting bracket 200 is fixedly connected to the rear drive axle 100. The bottom of the mounting bracket 200 is fixedly connected to one end of the trailing arm 300, and the other end of the trailing arm 300 is hinged to the bottom of the vehicle body 103. This structure of the trailing arm 300 allows for a hinged connection between the rear drive axle 100 and the vehicle body 103. The lower end of the damper 400 is hinged to the mounting bracket 200, and the upper end of the damper 400 is hinged to the bottom of the vehicle body 103. This provides buffering resistance during vehicle body 103 operation, reduces vibration transmission, and improves driving stability. Furthermore, the vehicle body 103 is pressed against the rear drive axle 100 by the damper 400. To reduce the impact of road bumps on the vehicle body 103, the lower end of the coil spring 500 is secured to the upper part of the rear drive axle 100, while the upper end of the coil spring 500 is engaged with the bottom of the vehicle body 103. This allows the coil spring 500 to provide elastic support to the vehicle body 103. The coil spring 500's engagement between the upper part of the rear drive axle 100 and the bottom of the vehicle body 103 facilitates its installation and removal. The damper 400 limits the distance between the vehicle body 103 and the rear drive axle 100, pressing the coil spring 500 between them to prevent it from detaching and improving the overall structural stability and safety. The combined use of the coil spring 500 and the damper 400 allows the vehicle body 103 to effectively absorb impacts from the ground during driving, thereby improving ride comfort and handling performance. In addition, since the helical spring 500 is fixed by a snap-fit ​​method, it is easy to replace and maintain, thus reducing the cost of use.

[0027] Optionally, a lower spring washer 501 is provided on the upper part of the rear drive axle 100, a lower insertion rod 502 is provided on the upper part of the lower spring washer 501, an upper spring washer 503 is provided on the bottom of the vehicle body 103, and an upper insertion rod 504 is provided on the lower part of the upper spring washer 503. The lower insertion rod 502 and the upper insertion rod 504 are respectively inserted into both ends of the coil spring 500.

[0028] In this way, the two ends of the helical spring 500 are respectively positioned between the lower spring washer 501 and the upper spring washer 503. The lower spring washer 501 and the upper spring washer 503 can provide stable support for the helical spring 500. At the same time, the lower insertion rod 502 and the upper insertion rod 504 are respectively inserted into the two ends of the helical spring 500. This can effectively prevent the helical spring 500 from shifting or falling off during installation and use.

[0029] Optionally, the upper spring washer 503 and the lower spring washer 501 are respectively pressed onto both ends of the helical spring 500.

[0030] In this way, the helical spring 500 is tightly pressed together by the upper spring washer 503 and the lower spring washer 501. The outer diameters of the upper spring washer 503 and the lower spring washer 501 are larger than the outer diameter of the helical spring 500, which can effectively increase the contact area between the helical spring 500 and the upper spring washer 503 and the lower spring washer 501, ensuring the uniformity of force at both ends of the helical spring 500 and avoiding spring deformation or damage caused by local stress concentration.

[0031] Optionally, an extension rod 600 is provided on one side of the rear drive axle 100, and a stabilizer rod 601 is hinged to the extension rod 600. The stabilizer rod 601 is hinged to the extension rod 600.

[0032] In this way, a stabilizer bar 601 is hinged to the extension rod 600 on one side of the rear drive axle 100. The extension rod 600 is perpendicular to the rear drive axle 100. The stabilizer bar 601 is hinged to the extension rod 600. The stabilizer bar 601 is hinged to the extension rod 600. The stabilizer bar 601 is hinged to rotate around the length axis of the extension rod 600. The other end of the stabilizer bar 601 is hinged to the vehicle body 103. In this way, the connection between the stabilizer bar 601 and the vehicle body 103 can effectively improve the connection stability between the rear drive axle 100 and the vehicle body 103.

[0033] Optionally, the end of the drag arm 300 connected to the mounting bracket 200 is provided with two connecting holes 301, and the mounting bracket 200 is provided with two mounting shafts 201 that match the connecting holes 301, and the connecting holes 301 are sleeved on the mounting shafts 201.

[0034] In this way, the towing arm 300 and the mounting bracket 200 are connected through the cooperation of two connecting holes 301 and the mounting shaft 201. This can securely connect the towing arm 300 and the mounting bracket 200. At the same time, the design of the two connecting holes 301 and the mounting shaft 201 can effectively distribute the force on the connection parts and avoid structural damage due to excessive force on a single connection point, thereby improving the overall stability and durability of the connection.

[0035] Optionally, a bushing 202 is fitted onto the mounting shaft 201, and the connecting hole 301 is fitted onto the bushing 202.

[0036] In this way, the mounting shaft 201 and the connecting hole 301 are fitted together by the bushing 202. The bushing 202 can effectively reduce the friction between the mounting shaft 201 and the connecting hole 301, and the bushing 202 can also play a role in buffering and shock absorption, further improving the stability of the connection between the towing arm 300 and the mounting bracket 200. The bushing 202 can effectively compensate for the gap between the mounting shaft 201 and the connecting hole 301, ensuring the tightness of the connection, while reducing the risk of wear caused by vibration or impact, thereby extending the service life of the overall structure.

[0037] Optionally, the bushing 202 is provided with a buffer hole 203, and a plurality of buffer holes 203 are arranged around the axis of the bushing 202.

[0038] In this way, the design of the buffer hole 203 can further improve the vibration damping performance of the bushing 202. Multiple buffer holes 203 are evenly distributed around the axis of the bushing 202, so that when the bushing 202 is subjected to external force, the stress can be reasonably distributed through the buffer hole 203, avoiding excessive local stress that could lead to material fatigue or deformation.

[0039] Optionally, the bushing 202 is made of rubber.

[0040] In this way, the rubber material has good elasticity and wear resistance, which can effectively absorb vibration and impact while ensuring connection strength, further improving the vibration reduction and noise reduction performance of bushing 202.

[0041] Optionally, a drive motor 104 is provided on the side of the rear drive axle 100.

[0042] In this way, the drive motor 104 is fixedly connected to the rear drive axle 100, and the drive motor 104 can drive the drive wheel 101 on the rear drive axle 100 to rotate, thereby providing power output to the vehicle.

[0043] Optionally, the buffer hole 203 has an arc-shaped structure, and the inner wall of the buffer hole 203 is provided with a buffer protrusion 204.

[0044] In this way, the arc-shaped buffer hole 203 can better adapt to the distribution of external forces, allowing stress to be transmitted more evenly to all parts of the bushing 202, thereby effectively improving the fatigue resistance of the bushing 202. The design of the buffer protrusion 204 can further enhance the buffering effect of the bushing 202. During the stress process, it absorbs more vibration energy through local deformation, reducing the impact force transmitted to the connection structure, thereby improving the overall stability and durability of the connection. Thus, the buffer protrusion 204 can generate local elastic deformation when the bushing 202 is under stress, thereby effectively absorbing and dispersing vibration energy, further reducing the risk of fatigue damage to the connection structure caused by continuous vibration, and improving the adaptability and service life of the bushing 202 under complex working conditions.

[0045] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and substitutions are all considered to be within the protection scope of the present utility model.
