Product Description
Transverse single control arm and transverse tie rod control arm are two common control arms in automobile suspension system, which play an important role in lateral stability and control of suspension system. The following are the differences between them:
1. Structure: The transverse single control arm usually presents a rod-shaped structure connected with the wheel suspension system, with one end connected with the joint or ball head of the wheel suspension system and the other end connected with the body structure. The control arm of the transverse tie rod presents a rod-like structure connected with the wheel suspension system, one end of which is connected with the joint or ball head of the wheel suspension system, and the other end is connected with the car body structure, and forms an angle with the wheel suspension system.
2. Function: The main function of the lateral single control arm is to provide lateral stability. By connecting the wheel suspension system and the body structure, the wheel roll and the swing of the suspension system are prevented, thus improving the handling and stability of the vehicle. The main function of the lateral tie rod control arm is to provide lateral stability and longitudinal stiffness. By connecting the wheel suspension system and the body structure, the lateral and longitudinal movements of the wheels are controlled, thus improving the handling and stability of the vehicle.
3. Suspension geometry: The suspension geometry of the lateral single control arm is usually simple, and the wheels are relatively upright during the suspension stroke. However, the suspension geometry of the transverse tie rod control arm is relatively complicated, and the wheel will have a certain inclination angle during the suspension stroke. This inclination angle can provide better pavement adaptability and flexibility of suspension adjustment.
4. adjustability: some high-performance vehicles have adjustable lateral single control arm and lateral tie rod control arm, which can be adjusted according to the needs of drivers and the changes of road conditions. This adjustability can provide more flexible suspension adjustment to adapt to different driving styles and road conditions.
In a word, there are some differences between the transverse single control arm and the transverse tie rod control arm in structure, function and suspension geometry. The lateral single control arm mainly provides lateral stability, while the lateral tie rod control arm provides lateral stability and longitudinal stiffness. These differences make them have different applications and characteristics in different automobile suspension systems.
