In the strut type suspension device described above, the lower end of the suspension damper is fixedly attached to the axle, so an upward load acting on the wheel acts to deflect the suspension damper inward. Therefore, a moment is generated that pushes the upper end of the cylinder inward, and a deflected load acts on the piston rod via a front guide fixedly provided at that portion.

This deflected load increases sliding resistance, causing abnormal damping action and deteriorating riding comfort. In addition, if such deflection loads are frequently applied to the front guide, abnormally uneven wear will occur on the sliding surface with the piston rod, and eventually the sealing performance will be lost and the oil inside the cylinder will leak. Damping performance and durability may deteriorate due to foreign matter entering the cylinder from the outside.

On the other hand, due to the upward tilting of the distal end of the suspension arm, the opening angle between the suspension arm and the suspension damper becomes large, and the link means connected therebetween becomes tense. The elastic member is deformed by the tension of the link means, the lower end of the suspension damper is pulled inward, and the inward force acting on the upper end of the cylinder is suppressed. Therefore, even when the wheels swing during a bump, a deflected load is not applied to the suspension damper.

When the car is running on a flat road, the suspension arm 7
is in a substantially horizontal state, and the link means 8 is in a relaxed state with both rods 8a and 8b bent at the central connecting portion, as shown in the lower part of FIG. In such a case, the inclination angle of the suspension damper 5 is set so that the direction of the load acting on the suspension damper 5 from the wheel 1 via the wheel support member 2 substantially coincides with its axial direction. Therefore, the cylinder 5 is placed in the piston loft 5a.
The load applied through b acts only in the axial direction, and no deflected force is exerted on the sliding surfaces of the rod guide 5C or piston 5d.

However, when an automobile travels on a road with severe unevenness and undergoes a violent rocking motion that pushes up the vehicle body 4, such as a so-called bump, the tip of the suspension arm 7 tilts upward significantly. Since the cylinder 5b is integrally fixed to the wheel support member 2, and the upper end of the piston rod 5a is pivotally supported by the vehicle body 4, the opening angle of the cylinder 5b with respect to the suspension arm 7 increases as the cylinder 5b tilts. Therefore 1.
The link means 8 is in a tensioned state as shown in the middle or upper part of the figure, and the elastic member 10 is sheared and deformed.
The lower part of the cylinder 5b is pulled inward, and a load is applied to the suspension damper 5 only in the axial direction.

That is, when the wheel support member 2 is displaced upward by a predetermined amount or more, the piston rod 5a is moved from the upper end of the cylinder 5b by a component force S of an external force acting on the wheel 1 at the grounding point in a direction perpendicular to the axis of the suspension damper 5. Ronto Guide 5
It receives an inward force S1 through C. On the other hand, since the opening angle between the cylinder 5b and the suspension arm 7 becomes large, the link means 8 becomes tense, and an inward tension F acts on the lower end of the cylinder 5b. This tension F causes a force F1 to act on the piston rod 5a in the opposite direction to the nuclear force S+ which reduces the force S1. In such a state, the component force S
The reaction force Su from the vehicle body 4 side acting on the upper end of the piston rod 5a is similarly reduced by the opposing force Fu due to the tension F. Therefore, suspension damper 5
The force applied in the direction perpendicular to the axis of is kept approximately in equilibrium,
Most of the load from wheel 1 is transferred to suspension damper 5.
The deflection is reduced by acting along the axial direction. By the way,
Double shaft support member 11.11 in the relaxed state of the link means 8
The length lO between the two increases when under tension and becomes l+,
A tensile force F=k (j!+ -1O) is generated.

As described above, according to the automobile suspension device of the present invention, a large deflection load is not applied to the suspension damper 5, so that the damping operation is maintained normally and good riding comfort is achieved. In addition, a large deflection load does not act on the rod guide, preventing uneven wear.
Since the sealing performance is maintained, suspension damper 5
The durability is improved and a good riding comfort can be maintained.

In addition, in this embodiment, the link means 8 is composed of two rods 8.
a and 8b, but the present invention does not specify the structure of the link means.In short, the link means is linked between the wheel support member and the suspension arm, and when the distance between the link points is extended beyond a predetermined value, a tensile force is applied. Therefore, for example, a single connecting rod with an elastic member as a valve bag, or a cylinder mechanism with a built-in coil spring may be used.
