The suspension in the overall framework of a car carrying a very important role, making the car so vibration resistance as it passes through the media that is not smooth, and brings a feeling of comfort and safety to the passengers who ride.The history of the use of the suspension on the car has been there since more than a century ago. Where in the end, until recently crowned the use of suspension indispensable component for any model car.
More complex, the suspension gives the role and contribution in the car's performance in terms of handling and braking. With the suspension, vibration and given effect in the road to the car body will be reduced by good, as well as reducing the insistent pressure on the tires.
In the process, there has been a lot of suspension designs are scattered throughout the world. Each model has provided a selection of advantages and disadvantages.
1. MacPherson
MacPherson Strut suspension system is one of the most classic, has been used since 1949, but until today still use a lot of cars in the world. The use of vertical vibration damper has a simple profile that makes the system easy to dimaintenance MacPherson. In addition, this model is the easiest to apply on the car.
However, because it is the simplest, one of the drawbacks that are not covered by this system is when the car carrying the load on one corner of the cabin, when turning the car will be possible to 'slant'. In addition, the vibration felt by the passengers will feel the details, so that as it passes through a small pebble, passengers will feel it.
2. Double Wishbone
Double wishbone suspension is a stand-alone models (independent) using the two 'arms' tab on the top and bottom, which are paired in parallel. While the vibration damper paired with a vertical direction, from top to bottom.
The use of double wishbone will give freedom to the driver to control the movement of the wheels optimally. In addition, by using a double wishbone, the driver will be able to feel the optimal control in a car driven. Double wishbone own models have been used by Honda, Pontiac, Alfa Romeo, as well as several models of luxury cars owned by Mercedes Benz.
3. Hidro-Pneumatis
Suspension with this system is not the most popular, because in addition to durability which is not too good, cost of maintenance of the system is quite high. The suspension system is identical at all with the car manufacturer Citroen. Mainly products Citroen born in the 1970s.
Examined from the use of vibration damping material, the use of the suspension system is in fact ironically provide exceptional vibration damping effective. In some cases, when passing through potholes deep enough, the rider does not feel like being past the damaged media, and the depth of the suspension can be set by the owner himself.
4. Multi-Link
One of the suspension were complicated, because the use of this suspension can be up above using 3 pieces of arms and one or more arms that are longitudinal. In addition, the model's suspension is also one of the most expensive and most difficult to dimaintenance.
Cars that use these systems typically have lightweight handling, as well as agility or agility. In the simplest conditions, multi-link suspension is a suspension called 'orthogonal'. In another sense, this suspension has a parameter that can be changed in the settings, without affecting the other conditions.
5. Air Suspension
Air suspension is a suspension that utilizes the power of air pressure. Almost the same as the system is owned hydro-pneumatic, only the condition and quality of the water suspension is much more reliable, and physically much more durable and long lasting.
The use of air suspension itself is dominated by cars with high-end quality such as Rolls Royce, Maybach, Ford and many others. Air suspension is able to make the passengers of the car using the car suspension feels like flying, because the quality of the suspension which is one of the best.
