ABSTRACT:
A vehicle rigid axle includes an axle beam with axle journals or wheel carriers arranged at the ends thereof, and at least two trailing arms rigidly fixed to the axle beam. Each half of the vehicle rigid axle—viewed from the middle of the axle—includes an axle beam section, a trailing arm section and a wheel head section arranged in tandem, the wheel head section including at least one axle journal or one wheel carrier. In each case the end faces of the axle tube sections are congruent with the adjoining end faces of the trailing arm sections and their end faces are congruent with the respectively adjoining end faces of the wheel head sections, at least in some areas. The adjoining sections are in each case welded together at their end faces. The vehicle rigid axle may increase the ride comfort and driving safety and may reduce the tire wear.
