  2. Torsion spring - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_spring

    A torsion bar suspension is a thick, steel torsion-bar spring attached to the body of a vehicle at one end and to a lever arm which attaches to the axle of the wheel at the other. It absorbs road shocks as the wheel goes over bumps and rough road surfaces, cushioning the ride for the passengers.

  3. Torsion bar suspension - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Torsion_bar_suspension

    A torsion bar suspension, also known as a torsion spring suspension, is any vehicle suspension that uses a torsion bar as its main weight-bearing spring. One end of a long metal bar is attached firmly to the vehicle chassis; the opposite end terminates in a lever, the torsion key, mounted perpendicular to the bar, that is attached to a ...

  4. Watt's linkage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Watt's_linkage

    Watt's linkage consists of three bars bolted together in a chain. The chain of bars consists of two end bars and a middle bar. The middle bar is bolted at each of its ends to one of the ends of each outer bar. The two outer bars are of equal length, and are longer than the middle bar. The three bars can pivot around the two bolts.

  5. Traction control system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Traction_control_system

    The predecessor of modern electronic traction control systems can be found in high-torque, high-power rear-wheel-drive cars as a limited slip differential.A limited-slip differential is a purely mechanical system that transfers a relatively small amount of power to the non-slipping wheel, while still allowing some wheel spin to occur.

  6. Current collector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Current_collector

    Trolley pole wheel on top of the trolley pole of Twin City Rapid Transit Company No. 1300. A current collector (often called a "pickup") is a device used in trolleybuses, trams, electric locomotives and EMUs to carry electric power from overhead lines, electric third rails, or ground-level power supplies to the electrical equipment of the vehicles.

  7. Equalising beam - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equalising_beam

    The central element is the equalising beam, on which a spring set (with an inner and an outer coil) rests at each end. Other components are, from left to right: an axlebox with roller bearing; a pair of swing links and short beam supporting a nest of coil springs and a vertical hydraulic motion damper; and a horizontal torsion bar.

  8. Swing axle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swing_axle

    Z-bar and roll-inducing springs: Mercedes-Benz introduced, to help their low-pivot swing-axle, a coil spring mounted transversely above the differential, which would transfer load from one side to the other, so as to force down one wheel when the other side went up. This coil spring increases the load bearing capacity of the rear suspension, so ...

  9. Johnson bar (vehicle) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johnson_bar_(vehicle)

    A Johnson bar activated parking/emergency brake on a 1930s White transit bus. Johnson bar is the term for several different hand-operated levers used in vehicles. Their distinguishing feature is a positive latch, typically spring-loaded, to hold the lever in a selected position, capable of being operated with one hand.
