Title:
SUSPENSION STRUCTURE OF VEHICLE
Document Type and Number:
Japanese Patent JP2007168587
Kind Code:
A
Abstract:
To provide a suspension structure of a vehicle capable of securing stable vehicle behaviors at the time of run-flat traveling.
A run-flat tire capable of traveling even while a pneumatic pressure inside the tire is lowered is mounted to a vehicle. In this suspension structure of a vehicle, a suspension characteristic is set so that a ratio of a slip angle SA and a camber angle CA is coincident with a ratio of a camber thrust change volume (Cs-Cs0) and a cornering power change volume (Cp-Cp0) at the time of normal traveling and run-flat traveling. This keeps a lateral force generated to the tire same at the time of normal traveling and run-flat traveling.
