Description:FIELD
The present disclosure relates to a mounting arrangement and layout of a stab bar used in a vehicle and more particularly a stab bar mounting arrangement for a multi-link rear suspension system of a vehicle.
DEFINITIONS
As used in the present disclosure, the following terms are generally intended to have the meaning as set forth below, except to the extent that the context in which they are used indicates otherwise.
Stab bar: The term “Stab bar” refers to a short form of stabilizer bar which is an important component of the suspension system of a vehicle. The stabilizer bar is also known as a sway bar, a torsion bar, Anti-Roll Bar (ARB) etc.
Stab link: the term “stab link” refers to a connecting means that is used to link the stab bar to the suspension system.
BACKGROUND
The background information herein below relates to the present disclosure but is not necessarily prior art.
A stab bar is used to maintain the stability of the vehicle by preventing the body roll by applying torsional stiffness onto the vehicle. During a turn, the vehicle tends to roll over due to the centrifugal forces acting on the body, thereby tilting the vehicle towards one side. In order to prevent or mitigate the body roll, the stab bar is connected to both ends of the vehicle (LH and RH). When the body rolls during cornering, the suspension system is designed to twist the stab bar. The vehicle tries to return back to almost horizontal condition due to the stab bar’s torsional stiffness and maintains the stability of the vehicle.
Conventionally, the stab bar layout is constructed in such a way that the stab bar is rigidly mounted on the rear sub-frame using a stab bar mounting bracket and the stab link is directly linked to the suspension system. In a typical stab bar mounting arrangement, the stab link is mounted on the knuckle at one end and to the stab bar at the other end. When the knuckle on one side (LH or RH) moves up or down relative to the other knuckle, since the wheel is mounted on the knuckle via suitable bearings, the knuckle pushes the stab link and thereby twists the stab bar. The twisting of the stab bar maintains the stability of the vehicle by mitigating the body roll in the vehicle. However, mounting the stab link onto the knuckle may not be possible in cases where the space for packaging the stab bar and stab link in the suspension layout is less. In such scenarios, the stab bar layout becomes complex leading to critical clearances with peripheral parts like links, damper, wheel rim, structural members such as BIW, etc. Also, articulation of the suspension system in such cases would lead to fouling of the stab bar and link with the aforementioned peripheral parts.
In other conventional front-wheel drive vehicles, the stab link is mounted directly on a spring link symmetrically on a central axis joining two mounting points of the spring link. The stab link is placed exactly symmetric to the mid-plane of the spring link. However, in the multi-link rear suspension system the luxury of positioning the stab link exactly at the mid-plane passing through the center line of the spring link or any other link is not possible due to the packaging constraints (due to multi-link arrangement). Multi-link rear suspension arrangement with five or more links generally includes a number of links such as the front upper link, front lower link, toe link, rear upper link, and spring link. Further, such system also includes other suspension elements such as a damper, spring and displacement sensor. Therefore, such multi-link suspension system does not offer enough space for mounting the stab link onto the knuckle or exactly at the mid-plane passing through the centerline of the spring link.
All five links articulate during the suspension action from full bump to rebound occupy or cover a considerable amount of space while traveling up and down. The available space is not only occupied by the travel of the five-link suspension system but the available packaging space is also occupied by the drive shaft since the preferable vehicle is a rear-wheel drive and all-wheel drive vehicle. Hence, the configuration of the suspension linkages is extremely bulky in order to meet the load-carrying capacity and to meet durability requirements. Thus, the volume occupied by a plurality of links, springs, damper, displacement sensor, drive-shaft, wheel rims, their articulation boundaries and the clearance to be maintained with these parts limits the overall packaging space available for routing and mounting the stab bar. Thus, stab bar layout becomes extremely challenging for which routing and stab link mounting are necessary. Sometimes multiple bends are required in the stab bar to route it properly to maintain sufficient clearances with articulating parts of the multi-link suspension system. This increases length and overall weight of the stab bar and also increases complexity.
Further, the stab bar layout in the conventional system constrains the freedom of designing various links of a multi-link rear suspension system and also does not offer sufficient clearance due to the surrounding parts. Lack of freedom in designing various links of independent rear suspension systems limits the improvement in the overall ride and comfort of the vehicle.
Therefore, there is felt a need to provide a stab bar mounting arrangement for a multi-link rear suspension system of a vehicle that obviates the drawbacks mentioned hereinabove or at least provides an alternative solution.

The present disclosure relates to a stab bar mounting arrangement for a multi-link rear suspension system of a vehicle.

Referring to Figure 1, Figure 1 depicts a conventional stab bar mounting arrangement (100’). In a typical stab bar mounting arrangement (110’), a stab link (120’) is mounted on a knuckle (140’). The stab link (120’) at one end connects the knuckle (140’) and at the other end connects the stab bar (110’). However, mounting the stab link (120’) onto the knuckle (140’) may not be possible in cases where the space for packaging the stab bar (110’) and the stab link (120’) in the suspension layout is less. In such scenarios, the stab bar layout becomes complex leading to critical clearances with peripheral parts like links, damper, wheel rim, structural members such as BIW, etc. Also, articulation of the suspension system in such cases would lead to fouling of the stab bar and link with the aforementioned peripheral parts.
Referring to Figure 2. Figure 2 depicts another conventional stab bar mounting arrangement (200’) for a front-wheel drive vehicle. The stab link (120’) is directly mounted on a spring link (150’) symmetrically to the central axis that joins two mounting points of the spring link (150’). The Multi-link rear suspension includes five or more links, such as the front upper link, front lower link, toe link, rear upper link, and spring link. Further, such a system also includes other suspension elements such as a damper element, spring, and displacement sensor. The presence of a drive shaft in the closer vicinity further limits the packaging space availability for various links of multi-link rear suspension arrangement. In such a multi-link rear suspension arrangement with five or more links, the mounting of the stab link directly on the spring link (150’) is not possible due to the involvement of multiple links and other peripheral parts in the closer vicinity.
Therefore, such a multi-link suspension system does not offer enough space for mounting the stab link onto the knuckle or exactly at the mid-plane passing through the center line of the spring link.
The present disclosure aims to alleviate the aforementioned drawbacks. The present disclosure envisages a stab bar mounting arrangement (300) for a multi-link rear suspension system (100) of a vehicle.
The multi-link rear suspension system (100) is a must-needed system for the vehicle to provide comfort to the driver and occupants. The higher the number of links for a suspension system, the better the possibility of tuning the ride and handling of the vehicle, thereby providing comfort to the occupants of the vehicle. However, conversely, the higher the number of links, the lesser the space available for routing the stab bar (110’) layout and mounting the stab link (120’). The multiple linkages occupy most of the space available, and thus the rear stab link (120’) cannot be mounted on the knuckle (140’) as in the conventional approach. Therefore in the present disclosure, a stab bar (110) and a stab link (120) mounting arrangement is provided that enables an ease of stab bar routing for a multi-link rear suspension system (100).
The present disclosure will now be described in detail with reference to Figures 3 through 7. The present embodiment does not limit the scope and ambit of the present disclosure.
The multi-link rear suspension system (100) comprises at least three suspension links (150, 170, 170a 180, 190), the stab bar (110), and the stab link (120). The stab link (120) connects the stab bar (110) with at least one suspension link (150, 170, 170a 180, 190) of the multi-link rear suspension system (100).
According to an embodiment, the multi-link rear suspension system (100) includes at least five links and a semi-active damper. In an embodiment, the at least three suspension links of the multi-link rear suspension system (100) includes but is not limited to a suspension link supporting a resilient element (150), a front upper link (170), a front lower link (170a), a rear upper link (180), and a toe link (190). The multi-link rear suspension system may also include a camber link and any other suitable links. Further, the multi-link rear suspension system may also include other elements such as a damper element (310), the spring (140), the displacement sensor (not shown), etc.
In accordance with another embodiment of the present disclosure, the resilient element (140) of the suspension link may be a spring or other elastic element. According to a preferred embodiment, the resilient element is spring (140).
According to an embodiment, the stab bar mounting arrangement (300) comprises a mounting bracket (160) that is attached to at least one suspension link (150, 170, 170a, 180, 190) and configured to connect the stab link (120) with the suspension link (150, 170, 170a 180, 190). The mounting bracket (160) extends asymmetrically away from the body of the suspension link (150, 170, 170a, 180, 190) in the operative front or rear direction of the vehicle.
According to an embodiment shown in Figures 3-7, the mounting bracket (160) is attached to the a suspension link supporting a resilient element (hereinafter referred to as ‘spring link’ (150)) and extends asymmetrically away from the body of the spring link (150) in the operative rear direction of the vehicle. With such an arrangement, one end of the stab link (120) is supported on the mounting bracket (160) asymmetrically away from the body (154) of the spring link (150). The other end of the stab link is connected to the stab bar (110). Through such arrangement, the stab bar (110) is placed operatively towards the rear direction (220) of the vehicle with respect to the operative position of the plurality of links of the multi-link rear suspension system (100). Two ends of the stab bar (110) are supported on each stab link (120) present on the left-hand side and right-hand side of the vehicle, and the stab bar (110) is also coupled with a rear sub-frame (200) using a stab bar bracket (130) as can be seen the figure 4.
As the stab bar (110) is mounted toward the rear direction, away from the vicinity of the plurality of links and other peripheral elements of the multi-link rear suspension system (100), it provides sufficient clearance with other surrounding parts. The asymmetric nature of the mounting bracket (160) increases the freedom of designing various links of a multi-link rear suspension system (100) by connecting the stab link (120) to the spring link (150) in the rearward direction of the vehicle by using the mounting bracket (160). Further, such an arrangement reduces the number of bends required in the stab bar (110) to avoid interference with adjacent parts. Such simple routing and placement of the stab bar (110) with minimal bends reduce the overall weight of the stab bar assembly.
Figures 4 and 7A to 7C depict the asymmetrical nature of the mounting bracket (160) and the mounting arrangement of the stab bar (110) toward the rear direction of the vehicle. According to an embodiment disclosed in Figures 4-7, the mounting bracket (160) is asymmetrically attached to the spring link (150) and extends in the operative rear direction of the vehicle. The axis defined by a line joining a sub-frame mounting end (151) and a knuckle mounting end (152) of the spring link (150) is neither parallel nor perpendicular to the operative axis along the length of the mounting bracket (160). Further, the stab link mounting point ‘P’ on the mounting bracket (160) is placed asymmetrically at offset distance “L” from the center point ‘O’ of the spring link (150). Furthermore, the operative axis along the length of the mounting bracket (160) is not parallel to the operative axes along the length (Y-axis) or width direction (X-axis) of the vehicle when seen in a top view. This asymmetric nature of the mounting bracket (160) enables placement of the stab bar (110) toward the rear direction, away from the vicinity of the plurality of links and other peripheral elements of the multi-link rear suspension system (100), and reduces packaging complexity. Such placement offers freedom in designing multiple links as per requirement without worrying about packaging space which in turn helps improve the overall ride experience, comfort, and handling performance of the vehicle.
The mounting bracket (160) may include a reinforcing element (162). Figure 7C depicts the stab link mounting bracket (160) with the reinforcement element (162) and a supporting welded washer (164) to take up the loads due to the severely asymmetric construction of the spring link (150) and stab bar (110) layout. The reinforcement element (162) on the spring link (150) mitigates the high stresses of the rear suspension system due to the asymmetric stab link (120) mounting.
In accordance with another embodiment of the present disclosure, the mounting bracket (160) may be attached to the toe link (190) instead of the spring link (150), and the mounting bracket (160) extends operatively towards the rear direction (220) of the vehicle.
In accordance with the embodiment of the present disclosure, the mounting bracket (160) is coupled to the spring link (150) or toe link (190) via welding. In accordance with another embodiment of the present disclosure, the mounting bracket (160) is integrally formed with the spring link (150) or any other link of the multi-link rear suspension system (100) during the manufacture of the spring link (150) or any other link.
Figures 8A and 8B depict an alternative embodiment in accordance with the present disclosure. According to this embodiment, the stab bar (110) is placed operatively towards the front direction (220) of the vehicle with respect to the operative position of the plurality of links of the multi-link rear suspension system (100). In an exemplary embodiment shown in figure 8A and 8B, the mounting bracket (160) is attached asymmetrically to the front upper link (170) and extend in the operative front direction (210) of the vehicle. In another embodiment the mounting bracket (160) may be attached asymmetrically to the front lower link (170a).
The stab bar mounting arrangement (300) avoids the critical and complex stab bar (110) routing and occupies less space, size, and weight for a five-link rear suspension system with a rear motor and rear-wheel drive.
The foregoing description of the embodiments has been provided for purposes of illustration and is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure. Individual components of a particular embodiment are generally not limited to that particular embodiment, but, are interchangeable. Such variations are not to be regarded as a departure from the present disclosure, and all such modifications are considered to be within the scope of the present disclosure.
