Abstract
Description
- The present invention relates to a device for moving the oscillating arms of the suspension system of vehicles.
- Vehicle suspension systems are known which consist of a set of components by means of which the wheels are connected to the chassis and which are capable of absorbing the stresses caused by imperfections of the ground and therefore ensure stability, road holding and comfort to such vehicle.
- In particular, suspension systems for independent wheels with oscillating arms are known which have, for each wheel, an arm that has an end that is pivoted to the chassis of the vehicle and the opposite end connected in a downward region to the wheel knuckle by means of a conical centering head, a shock absorber with a corresponding spring being further interposed between the wheel knuckle and the chassis.
- In order to perform various interventions to repair a vehicle on components of the axle shafts or of the suspension system proper, such as for example the replacement of bearings, cuffs, shock absorbers, etc., it is necessary to disengage the corresponding oscillating arm from the corresponding wheel knuckle, turning the arm downward with respect to the chassis.
- To perform this intervention,
EP 1,479,482 B1 discloses a device for moving individual oscillating arms that consists substantially of a cross-member that can be arranged below the chassis of the vehicle and is provided at a first end with means for anchoring to the chassis and at the second end, which lies opposite the first one, with an element for abutment below such chassis. A lever is pivoted to the first end of the cross-member, supports means for connection to the oscillating arm to be moved, and is connected to the cross-member by means of a rod of adjustable length that actuates its rotation with respect to such cross-member. The rotation of the lever actuates the movement of the oscillating arm, and therefore by acting on the lever by means of the adjustable rod it is possible to disengage the oscillating arm from the wheel knuckle and couple it again once the intervention has ended. - The adjustment of the length of the rod is performed manually by turning a threaded sleeve that is coupled to threaded elements.
- These devices of a known type are not devoid of drawbacks, which include the fact that if it is necessary to act on both oscillating arms of the axle of the vehicle the device must be arranged so as to perform the intervention on each arm, with a consequent increase in times and costs for execution.
- Furthermore, the rotation imparted to the oscillating arm by means of the adjustable rod is rather slow and requires a certain effort on the part of the assigned operators, who have to act manually on the threaded sleeve.
- The aim of the present invention is to eliminate the drawbacks noted above of the background art by providing a device for moving the oscillating arms of the suspension system of vehicles that allows to act on both oscillating arms of the front axle without the need to reposition the tool and optionally simultaneously, with a considerable saving in time and costs for execution of the intervention.
- Within this aim, an object of the present invention is to facilitate the intervention of the assigned operators and minimize the effort required.
- Another object of the present invention is to be flexible in use, allowing to adapt its shape as a function of the structural characteristics of different types of vehicle.
- A further object of the present invention is to have a structure that is simple, relatively easy to provide in practice, safe in use, effective in operation and relatively low in cost.
- This aim and these objects are all achieved by the present device for moving the oscillating arms of the suspension system of vehicles, of the type comprising for each wheel of a same axle a wheel knuckle associated with an oscillating arm pivoted to the chassis of the vehicle, comprising a cross-member supporting abutment means adapted to be arranged below the chassis of a vehicle and at least one assembly for moving a corresponding oscillating arm with respect to the chassis, which comprises a lever that is associated in an articulated manner with such cross-member, connection means that can be associated with such arm and are associated with such lever and means for rotational actuation of such lever with respect to such cross-member, characterized in that it comprises two of such assemblies each for moving a corresponding oscillating arm with respect to the chassis, which are associated on opposite sides of said cross-member.
- Further characteristics and advantages of the present invention will become better apparent from the detailed description of a preferred but not exclusive embodiment of a device for moving the oscillating arms of the suspension system of vehicles, illustrated by way of nonlimiting example in the accompanying drawings, wherein:
-
Figure 1 is a schematic perspective view of a device for moving the oscillating arms of the suspension system of vehicles, according to the invention, during the disengagement of one of the oscillating arms of the axle from the corresponding wheel knuckle; -
Figure 2 is a schematic perspective view of the device according to the invention; -
Figure 3 is a schematic front elevation view of the device according to the invention. - With reference to the figures, the
numeral 1 generally designates a device for moving the oscillating arms of the suspension system of vehicles. - The
device 1 can be used to act onconventional suspension systems 100 for vehicles provided, for each wheel of a same axle A, with anoscillating arm 101 in which one end is pivoted to thechassis 102 of the vehicle and the opposite end is coupled to thewheel knuckle 103 by means of aconical reference head 104 that is inserted in acorresponding seat 105 associated in a lower region with said knuckle. Thewheel knuckle 103 also supports a shock absorber with acorresponding spring 106. - The
device 1 comprises across-member 2 that supports abutment means 3 that are adapted to be arranged below thechassis 102. - Furthermore, the
device 1 comprises amovement assembly 4 that can be associated with each oscillatingarm 101 in order to actuate its rotation with respect to thechassis 102 so as to uncouple it from thecorresponding wheel knuckle 103 and then restore the coupling of thehead 104 in theseat 105. -
Figure 1 shows thedevice 1 applied to thesuspension system 100 of a vehicle, which is shown only partially, with theoscillating arm 101 on the left uncoupled from thecorresponding wheel knuckle 103 and with the arm on the right still in position. - Advantageously, the
device 1 allows to act on both oscillatingarms 101 of an axle A without the need to reposition the equipment. Furthermore, as will become apparent from the description that follows, if two operators are available it is possible to act simultaneously on the two oscillatingarms 101. - Each
movement assembly 4 is arranged at a corresponding end of thecross-member 2 and comprises alever 5 that is associated and articulated to such cross-member, means 6 for connection to the correspondingoscillating arm 101, which are associated with thelever 5, and means 7 for actuating thelever 6 rotationally with respect to thecross-member 2. - The connection means 6 of each
movement assembly 4 consist of a flexible element that is adapted to surround the correspondingoscillating arm 101 and is associated with the end of thecorresponding lever 5 that lies opposite the one articulated to thecross-member 2. - In the illustrated embodiment, the connection means 6 consist of an
adjustable band 14 that is associated with aring 15 that is pivoted to thelever 5; however, alternative embodiments are not excluded. - Advantageously, the
cross-member 2 has an adjustable length so as to be able to adapt as a function of the structure and size of the chassis of 2 of the vehicle on which it is necessary to intervene, placing correctly the abutment means 3. In particular, thecross-member 2 comprises acentral portion 8, with the ends of which respective slidingportions 9 are associated. Theportion 8 is constituted by a tubular profile having a quadrangular cross-section and theportions 9 consist of bars having a quadrangular cross-section that are inserted so that they can slide from opposite sides of such portion. - Means 10 are provided for locking temporarily the sliding of each
portion 9 with respect to theportion 8 and are constituted by a locking screw that is inserted so as to pass through such portion so as to press on theportion 9 with the corresponding stem and prevent its sliding. - In order to adjust the length of the
cross-member 2, thescrews 10 are loosened and then tightened on the correspondingportions 9 once the desired configuration has been achieved. - Each
lever 5 is associated in an articulated manner with acorresponding portion 9. In greater detail, for eachlever 5 there are twoplates 11 that are welded on opposite sides of thecorresponding portion 9 which support thepivot 12 for the articulation of such lever. - Furthermore, the abutment means 3 comprise at least one
support 13 adapted to abut in a lower region against thechassis 102. In order to optimize the stability of thedevice 1 and reduce the effort required to move theoscillating arms 101, there are twosupports 13, each of which is associated with the free end of acorresponding portion 9. - The supports 13 are adjustable in height.
- The actuation means 7 of each
movement assembly 4 comprise a pair ofrods element 18 and are interposed between thelever 5 and thecross-member 2. - In greater detail, the corresponding opposite ends of the
rod 16 are pivoted respectively to thelever 5 and to the pivotingelement 18 and therod 17 has corresponding opposite ends that are pivoted respectively to the pivoting element proper and to theportion 8 of thecross-member 2. - In this manner, the
cross-member 2, thelever 5 and therods cross-member 2 acts as a chassis. - Furthermore, the actuation means 7 of each
movement assembly 4 comprise a threadedstem 19 that is coupled to a supportingelement 20 that is associated with thelever 5 at the region for pivoting with thecorresponding portion 9 and is engaged in afemale thread 21 that is associated with the pivotingelement 18. - At the end that is pivoted to the
corresponding portion 9, eachlever 5 is fork-shaped, the supportingelement 20 being interposed between the prongs of such fork. - Each stem 19 is supported axially by the corresponding supporting
element 20 and rotates freely with respect to it. - In each
movement assembly 4 the rotation of thestem 19 in either direction actuates the sliding of thefemale thread 21 along it and therefore the rotation of thelever 5 with respect to thecross-member 2 in the direction for coupling/uncoupling thehead 104 of the correspondingoscillating arm 101 with respect to thecorresponding seat 105. - Each stem 19 has a maneuvering
end 22 that protrudes below therods - Usefully, the maneuvering
end 22 is provided withmeans 23 for coupling to a motorized spindle, such as a conventional drill, for the rotary actuation of such stems. - In this manner, the
movement assemblies 4 can actuate the rotation of theoscillating arms 101 with the aid of motorized tools, reducing the effort required to operators and speeding up the intervention. - Operation of the present invention is as follows.
- After adjusting the length of the
cross-member 2 as a function of the characteristics of the vehicle on which the intervention is to be performed, thedevice 1 is arranged below thechassis 2, applying thebands 14 to theoscillating arms 101 and arranging thesupports 13 in contact with thechassis 102, as shown in the figure. - By acting on the stems 19, the rotation of the
oscillating arms 101 in the desired direction is actuated as described above. - If necessary, two operators can act simultaneously on the
oscillating arms 101 of such axle A by acting on separate stems 19. - In practice it has been found that the described invention achieves the proposed aim and objects, and in particular the fact is stressed that the device according to the invention allows to act on both oscillating arms of a same axle, even simultaneously if necessary, with a single placement of such device.
