ABSTRACT:
A strut suspension for an automotive vehicle has its upper end connected to a suspension support which allows the upper end of the suspension strut to shift in a direction oblique to the longitudinal axis of the strut in response to vertical movement of a vehicle wheel. Shifting of the upper end of the strut is controlled by means of a link member rotatably connected to the upper end of the strut. The link member is rotatably connected to the suspension support. This structure ensures negative camber during roll-steer, anti-dive characteristics, and weak under-steer, and suppresses harshness by providing a suspension geometry which optimizes suspension characteristics depending upon the vehicle driving conditions.
