Patent ID: 8061726

Claim:
A wheel suspension for a front axle of a motor vehicle having a wheel and a body, the wheel suspension comprising: a wheel carrier; mounts including body-side mounts and wheel-carrier-side mounts; a first upper transverse link having an upper free end mounted on said wheel carrier, said first upper transverse link having two transversely projecting arms articulatedly connected to the body via said mounts; a second lower transverse link disposed below a horizontal wheel central plane, said second lower transverse link articulatedly connected at a first side to said wheel carrier in one of said mounts and at a second side to the body in two of said mounts, said second lower transverse link holds a lower end of a damper strut in a supporting fashion, said first upper transverse link and said second lower transverse link have rotational axes and in each case one rotational axis, said rotational axes are defined by means of said body-side mounts and are offset with respect to one another in height, with said rotational axis of said first upper transverse link being disposed closer to the wheel than said rotational axis of said second lower transverse link, and in that in each case one of said body-side mounts for said first upper transverse link is disposed at each side of a vertical wheel central transverse plane, and in that two said body-side mounts for said second lower transverse link are disposed—in relation to a direction of travel—in front of the vertical wheel central transverse plane, and in that a wheel pivot axis is formed by wheel-carrier-side mounts for said first and second transverse links; said body-side mounts having a front body-side mount for said first upper transverse link and a rear body-side mount for said second lower transverse link disposed, in relation to the direction of travel, in front of the vertical wheel central transverse plane and closer to the vertical wheel central transverse plane than said front body-side mount for said first upper transverse link; said damper strut having a hanger; a steering track rod disposed, in relation to the direction of travel, behind the vertical wheel central transverse plane; a stabilizer situated spaced apart from said steering track rod, said stabilizer mounted by means of said hanger on said damper strut; and said steering track rod having a free end held on said wheel carrier via one of said mounts and a first ray running through said one mount and through a connection to a steering cylinder unit, the first ray, with a second ray through said wheel-carrier-side mount and through said rear body-side mount of said second lower transverse link in a plan view, forms an instantaneous rotational pole within the vertical wheel central longitudinal plane, and the wheel can be elastokinematically adjusted in a toe-out sense under an influence of braking forces and can be elastokinematically adjusted in a toe-in sense under an influence of drive forces.
