At present, most SUVs in China are equipped with a lateral stabilizer bar, but it does not necessarily mean that having this anti roll bar is a good car. Many models have very thin anti roll bars, which can have little effect on cornering. The suppression of body posture is not as beautiful as imagined. Generally, off-road vehicles have very thick anti roll bars, which are directly related to their driving conditions. Below is a collection and organization by J editor on the effects of lateral stabilizer bars on cars. Welcome to read.
Its function is very simple, to prevent excessive tilting of the body during turns and improve the driving stability of the car on uneven roads. When a car turns, the suspension of the inner wheel is stretched while the suspension of the outer wheel is compressed. At this time, the anti roll bar will produce a twisting suppression effect to prevent the vehicle from overturning.
Many car owners are not familiar with this component. How much impact can a small component have on chassis handling? Actually, for some cars, it's not necessary to assemble it at all! Why? Because these models are either low-cost ordinary family sedans, only used for daily commuting, do not require high handling performance, and the driving speed is not high, with relatively low requirements for extreme tolerance when turning; Either it is a high-end model equipped with hydraulic suspension or magneto rheological suspension that can actively adjust (suppress) the body posture, so they need to be equipped with a lateral stabilizer bar.
Specific description: Due to the speed and centrifugal force of the vehicle, when turning, the suspension (wheels) on the outside of the bend will be compressed, and the suspension (wheels) on the inside of the bend will be stretched. To suppress this body posture, the lateral anti roll bar will apply a downward force to the suspension on the inside of the bend, while the suspension on the outside of the bend will apply an upward force to coordinate the body and enable the car to travel in a good posture.
At present, most SUVs in China are equipped with a lateral stabilizer bar, but it does not necessarily mean that having this anti roll bar is a good car. Many models have very thin anti roll bars, which can have little effect on cornering. The suppression of body posture is not as beautiful as imagined. Generally, off-road vehicles have very thick anti roll bars, which are directly related to their driving conditions. In addition, the softness and hardness of the anti roll bar are also related to the steering of the car, which will not be elaborated in detail. But why control the posture of the car body? You can understand the body posture in this simple way: if the body posture control is not good during turns, it is easy to overturn. If the vehicle tilts too much during turns, it will reduce the grip area of the tires, reduce grip, and accelerate when turning.
