Suspension system for vehicle
View Patent ↗A suspension system for a vehicle may include a torsion beam disposed along width direction of the vehicle and including an attaching portion formed to an end portion thereof, a trailing arm disposed to the attaching portion of the torsion beam and aligned along length direction of the vehicle, wherein one end portion of the trailing arm is coupled to a wheel and the other end portion of the trailing arm is connected to a vehicle body, and a stiffener connecting the attaching portion of the torsion beam and the trailing arm disposed between the stiffener and the attaching portion of the torsion beam.
1. A suspension system for a vehicle having a vehicle body, comprising:
a torsion beam disposed along a width direction of the vehicle and including an attaching portion formed on an end portion thereof;
a trailing arm mounted on the attaching portion of the torsion beam and aligned along a length direction of the vehicle, wherein one end portion of the trailing arm is coupled to a wheel and the other end portion of the trailing arm is connected to the vehicle body; and
a stiffener disposed on the attaching portion of the torsion beam and interconnecting the trailing arm and the attaching portion of the torsion beam;
wherein the stiffener includes an upper connecting protrusion protruding from an upper end portion of the stiffener toward the trailing arm;
wherein the stiffener further includes at least a lower connecting protrusion protruding from a lower end portion of the stiffener toward the trailing arm;
wherein the upper connecting protrusion and the lower connecting protrusion form at least a connecting hole for the trailing arm to be inserted thereinto; and
wherein the attaching portion includes an attaching plane and a slanted portion connecting an upper edge of the torsion beam for the trailing arm to be disposed on the attaching plane.
2. The suspension system for a vehicle of claim 1 , wherein a cross section of the trailing arm is rectangular.
3. The suspension system for a vehicle of claim 1 , wherein a cross section of the stiffener corresponds with a cross section of the torsion beam.
4. The suspension system for a vehicle of claim 1 , wherein a length of the upper connecting protrusion is substantially the same as the width of the tailing arm.
5. The suspension system for a vehicle of claim 1 , wherein a length of the lower connecting protrusion is substantially the same as the length of the upper connecting protrusion.
6. The suspension system for a vehicle of claim 1 , wherein a length of the lower connecting protrusion is substantially the same as the width of the tailing arm.
7. A vehicle comprising a vehicle body and the suspension system of claim 1 .
