Hello everyone, welcome to my channel Automoto Curiosity. In our previous video, we talked about the first element of vehicle basic structure. Today, we will be discussing the second element of vehicle basic structure which is suspension system. We will be getting understanding over following the effects after watching this video. This is the system of vehicle, functions of suspension system in vehicle, loads or forces which export suspension system, main components of suspension system, classic kitchen of suspension system. I would like to introduce myself. My name is Krishna Vatam. I am a mechanical engineer by profession. I have plus 10 years of working experience in very well-known OEMs like data motors and vehicle. Suspension system. In a vehicle, its wheels are mounted on frame through linkages and springs. This whole arrangement is named as suspension system. Suspension system allows the vehicle to bounce up and down on rock roots. Whereas, rest of the vehicle remains fairly steady. It also allows to corner vehicle with minimal role. Or we can see it minimizes tendency to lose traction between the tires and the road surface. Suspension system, main functions of suspension systems are to support vehicle weight to provide cushion against bounce and holes on the road to maintain traction between the tires and roads to hold the vehicle in alignment to maintain vehicle stability in waging. Forces and loads which acts on suspension systems are vertical force caused by vehicle weight. Lounge Q-Bull force caused by a tech-trip and breaking effort. Transverse force caused by centrifugal force, side slopes, lateral wheels, rotational torque reaction caused by driving and breaking efforts. Components of suspension system, the components of suspension system, includes these springs and related parts that support the weight of the vehicle body on axles and wheels. That springs and shock absorbers are two main parts of suspension system. Springs, springs support weight of the vehicle and loads of the vehicle. It also absorbs road shocks. Working of springs in suspension system, we know that springs are mechanical devices which are typically used to store energy and subsequently release it. Springs are part of suspension system design and are connected to wheel by sub-standard arinwitz. While driving, we have to go through bumps and ditches many times. When the vehicle starts passing the bumps surface, its wheels moves in upward direction and spring attains to wheel is compressed. And the vehicle comes down from the bumps surface. The suspension springs starts expanding. Compression and expansion of springs allows vehicle to remain steady at a level from road. We know five types of springs are commonly used in suspension systems. Steel springs, leaf springs, coiling springs and torsant bars are common examples of steel springs. We can see these springs in our cars and trucks easily. Rubber springs, plastic springs, air springs, hydraulic springs, shock absorbers. Apart from going during the movement of springs and suspension, shock absorbers also keep your tires in the contact with ground all the time. At rest or in motion, the bottom of surface of your tires is only part of vehicle in contact with the road. Anytime that our tires contact with the ground is broken or reduced, your ability to drive is dear and break is severely compromised. Working of shock absorbers, shock absorbers work by taking the kinetic energy of your suspension and converting it into thermal energy. Then it is dissipated into the atmosphere through the mechanism of heat exchange. As mentioned, shock absorbers are basically oil pumps. A piston is attached to the end of piston rod and works against the hydraulic fluid in the pressure tube. As the suspension travels up and down, hydraulic fluid is forced through the orifices inside the piston because the orifices only allow a small amount of fluid through the piston, the piston is load which is in turn so, down the spring and suspension movement. Shock absorbers automatically adjust to road conditions because of faster the suspension move, the more resistance they provide. There is types of shock absorbers, various types of shock absorbers formed in the suspension system are telescopic type shock absorber, gas-filled shock absorber, spring-assisted shock absorber, adjustable shock absorbers, air shock absorbers, classification of suspension systems. Based on the location of suspension system in a vehicle, suspension systems are classified as follows. The suspension system is available for the suspension system.
