Air Suspension System, Main-Trend Product in Automobile Sphere

Air suspension system has achieved a large application area because of its prominent advantages. In our modern society, the air suspension for trailers, trucks, drafters and some other vehicles implies its high popularity. Here, you will get the comprehensive introduction on such an air suspension system for different kinds of vehicles.
 
In the very first place, what is air suspension system? Take the trailer air suspension for example. It mainly consists of such four aspects as air spring, oscillating damper, guide mechanism and height-control system. Then, what are the functions of these parts respectively? The pneumatic spring plays a vital role in the whole operation, which can realize the balance between axle load and braking force. In the meantime, the pneumatic spring is equipped with relatively constant and low vibration frequency. That is to say, such a property can enhance the stability of the vehicle when it is running. When it comes to the guide mechanism, it is made up of lateral rod and longitudinal rod. These two rods are used to deliver the lateral and longitudinal force between vehicle body and axle as well as the moment if force produced from braking and driving. As to the height-control system, it has two types of mechanical and electronic control systems, which manage the whole operation.
 
Then, what are the outstanding advantages of the so-called air suspension system? Generally speaking, two sentences can summarize its advantages. On one hand, it can strengthen the comfortableness of passengers. On the other hand, it can, to a large extent, protect the road and prolong its service life. For example, the oscillating damper can decrease the vibration of the vehicle when it is running on the rolling road. Therefore, passengers will feel comfortable even if on the up-and-down road. At the same time, the less vibration also paves the way for longer service life of the auto parts. What is more, the wearing capacity towards the road will be decreased more than 50%.
 
Comparatively speaking, the go-anywhere vehicle is one of most popular examples for the application of air suspension system. As we know, the go-anywhere vehicle asks demanding requirements for the flexible height between road surface and chassis. After all, it will face many difficult road conditions. For example, such a kind of vehicle may face mud, water, sand or gravel. However, the vehicle that is equipped with the air suspension system can make it easily.
