The role of automotive thrust levers

Aug 23,2023

The automobile thrust rod is an important part of the connecting steering mechanism and suspension system, which plays the following roles:

1. Push steering: The car thrust lever converts the driver's steering wheel operation into the steering action of the suspension system by transmitting the power of the steering mechanism. When the driver turns the steering wheel, the thrust lever transmits the force of rotation to the steering mechanism and enables the front wheels to turn left and right.

2. Support suspension system: As part of the suspension system, the thrust rod bears the support of gravity above the suspension system. It plays the role of connecting the steering mechanism and wheel suspension parts to ensure the overall stability and normal operation of the suspension system.

3. Withstand suspension reaction force: During driving, the suspension system is affected by factors such as uneven ground surface, vehicle acceleration, braking and turning, and will generate forces in various directions. As a connector of the suspension system, the automobile thrust rod can withstand the vertical and horizontal reaction forces from the suspension system, ensuring the stability and smoothness of the vehicle in the suspension movement.

4. Adjust wheel spacing: Some car thrust rods are adjustable length, and the wheel spacing can be adjusted by adjusting the length of the thrust rods. This is very important for the adjustment and alignment of the vehicle's suspension system to ensure that the wheels are in contact with the ground properly and ensure the safety and comfort of driving.

In summary, the automobile thrust rod plays a vital role in the steering and suspension system of the car, connecting the steering mechanism and the suspension system, realizing the steering operation and supporting the suspension system.
