Car lower suspension ball joint (also called suspension ball joint) is a key component connecting suspension system and wheel. It usually consists of ball head, ball seat, bearing and seal.
The main functions of automobile lower suspension ball head are as follows:
1. Connecting the suspension system and the wheel: It is connected with the control arm or suspension rod of the suspension system through the ball joint, and is connected with the suspension arm or suspension rod of the wheel through the ball seat. In this way, the lower suspension ball head can make the wheel move up and down under the control of the suspension system, and can rotate flexibly when steering.
2. Support and bear the weight: it bears the gravity of the vehicle during driving and the impact of uneven road surface. The design and material selection of the lower suspension ball head ar able to withstand these forces and maintain a stable connection to ensure the normal operation of the suspension system and the stability of the vehicle.
3. Provide steering flexibility: The design of the lower suspension ball joint enables the wheels to rotate flexibly during steering.This makes it easier for the driver to control the steering of the vehicle, and improves the maneuverability and driving comfort.
Regular inspection and maintenance of the lower suspension ball head, including lubrication and fastening bolts, to ensure its normal work is an important measure to ensure the safety of suspension system and vehicles. Any maintenance and replacement of the lower suspension ball joint should be carried out by professional automobile maintenance technicians.
