Abstract
An axle suspension of rigid axles is presented, on the axle body (1) of which a steering triangle (2) as well as two longitudinal control arms (3, 4), which are located at spaced locations from the steering triangle and have different vertical positions, and additionally a stabilizing device (5) are arranged. The steering triangle has two control arms (2.1 and 2.2), which form an angle with one another and are fastened to a central joint (2.3), on the one hand, and are connected to the vehicle body via a guiding joint (2.4 and 2.5) each, on the other hand. The following geometric axes of coordinates are defined on the axle suspension: a first horizontal axis (12), which extends in the transverse direction of the vehicle and forms the central axis of the axle body (1) at the same time as well as a second horizontal axis (13), which extends in the center of the vehicle and in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle and intersects the axis (12) at right angles and a vertical axis (11) intersecting the intersection of the horizontal axes (12 and 13). The central joint (2.3) of the steering triangle (2) is mounted on the axle body with an offset from at least one of the axes (11 throu…
