Abstract:
1. A device for connecting a wheel axle housing with a chassis of a vehicle, comprising: a stabilizer having a single rod shaped torsion element, the torsion element having a longitudinal axis and being arranged to rotate about the longitudinal axis; two first arms running in a crosswise direction in relation to the torsion element having first end portions that are rigidly and directly attached to corresponding end portions of the single rod shaped torsion element; two second arms having first end portions and second end portions, the first end portions of the second arms being articulatedly attached to second end portions of the first arms whereby the first and second arms extend at an angle in relation to the longitudinal axis of torsion element and whereby the second end portions of the second arms are connected to the wheel axle housing and extend essentially vertically up from the wheel axle housing; and at least two spring-suspension elements with a first member that is operatively connected with the wheel axle housing, and a second member that is connected to the chassis, whereby members are arranged for reciprocal resilient movement and to transfer a portion of the weight of the chassis to the wheel axle housing; wherein the spring-suspension elements have corresponding third arms having first end portions that are rigidly and directly attached to the corresponding end portions of the single rod shaped torsion element, and second end portions that are connected with the first member; and wherein the single rod shaped torsion element can be caused to rotate about the torsion element longitudinal axis by a force exerted by the two first arms or by a force exerted by the two third arms of the spring-suspension elements.
