The suspension of the Mcpherson suspension

As an independent suspension can be said to be the highest rate of adoption in suspension form, McPherson ( English MacPherson Strut, Hongkong, according to the Cantonese " MacPherson " ) are widely used in civilian areas. Mcpherson suspension was derived from its inventor " mcpherson ". Although McPherson with its compact structure, high operational efficiency and become the highest visibility front suspension form, it is not the first to be invented for independent suspension form. The first suspension system, and non bearing body with, namely beam type frame. So can easily be suspension guiding mechanism and the elastic element are all installed on the girders of the double-wishbone system, it was the earliest, and the penetration rate ( in fact there is no other form of independent suspension, the reasonable collocation and beam type frame ). As the bearing body was invented, car size can also be largely compact. The suspension system has a compact demand. McPherson suspension system is a new concept, as an elastic element shock absorbers, through the strengthening of structure, at the same time as the steering and transmission of force and moment of the action, which can simplify the guiding mechanism, make more space to the engine compartment.
Mcpherson type suspension structure is quite simple: a lower cross arm is the only guide mechanism components, responsible for the transmission of longitudinal and lateral force, and thus a lower cross arm of the morphology and double arm cross arm is similar, is a " A" shape, in complex stress environment can give consideration to each direction strength; elastic elements of the shock absorber column at the same time to integrate spring, shock absorber, and the axial, transverse stress structure, so the shock absorber column structure than other forms of shock confidential more sturdy, vision also more robust. In here to emphasize that, " McPherson " is to the front suspension designed says, it is the essential condition of " shock absorber column " is also responsible for steering. While similar to the Subaru Impreza (9 generation and previously ) rear suspension structure, can be called " Mcpherson ".
McPherson suspension and steering column, one end rigidly fixed, another end is fixed on, is mounted on the we commonly known as " shock absorber tower .". On fixed point to both shock absorber column rotation ( along with the rotating wheel ) and bear force and moment. The McPherson suspension " top ", or more than double arm link system, its design strength requirements of higher. Plug in parenthesis, as reinforcing the strength, also known as the " derived from the top. " the transverse rod, the left and right overhead rigid connection, which was half open the engine compartment, from the front view of the past is a closed quadrilateral, eliminates the overhead due to the stress and to the two ends of the middle bending deformation.
McPherson suspension has the advantage to believe that a lot of people for having heard it many times: compact structure, little space occupation; the frame stress point is little, the stress of a frame design is simple; few components, low cost. The disadvantage is that the wheel moves up and down, the main pin movement by the lower swing arm geometry, track is a single arc, not by changing the steering joint constraints, to obtain the complex orientation parameters, so in sport and comfort, and wheat are not particularly outstanding Buddha. Can be said that Mcpherson is the doctrine of the mean design, low cost, reliable working performance, but does not lose.
This is the BMW 5 Series McPherson suspension, due to less space, so by the vast majority of the world's automotive manufacturers welcome.
This is the McPherson suspension picture, lower rocker arm is connected with the lower part of the steering knuckle, shock absorber column is fixed on the upper part of the steering knuckle, steering cross rod control section of the steering column to rotate and shock machine.
