The leaf spring is an important component to measure the damping effect of a car. Therefore, in order to ensure that the leaf spring has good working characteristics and service life, it must be used and maintained properly during the operation of the vehicle. Otherwise it is easy to damage the leaf spring in advance. In order to avoid this happening, we will come together to understand and learn some taboos about the leaf spring. Taboo 1: Long-term overloading The bearing capacity of the leaf spring was originally designed based on the loading quality of the vehicle. If it is overloaded for a long period of time, the fatigue resistance of the leaf spring will decrease, and the breakage will occur easily. Overloading will not only damage the leaf spring, but also cause damage to the engine and drive train components, as well as excessive tire wear. Suggestion: Try to ensure that the vehicle is not overloaded or eccentrically loaded and that the vehicle's performance is properly utilized. Taboo 2: Speeding Vehicles traveling at economic speeds can both ensure safety and save fuel. However, if the speed of some vehicles is too high, especially on a poor road surface, the deformation amplitude of the leaf spring will increase, the frequency will increase, and the leaf spring will be accelerated. Such as dump trucks, the operating environment is generally rather harsh, but some drivers blindly pursue economic efficiency, overload, high-speed driving everything is dry, which also accelerates the damage of the vehicle, and other such driving habits are not safe. Recommendation: Vehicles should be driven at low speeds on bad roads, especially when the vehicles cross the ditch, and decelerate ahead of time to prevent over-driving with brakes. Taboo 3: Sharp corners When the vehicle crosses a curve, it generates a large centrifugal force. For example, when the turning is too rapid, the centrifugal force generated at the same time also increases the load of the leaf spring on the outside of the vehicle, and thus the deformation of the leaf spring occurs, resulting in excessive force on the outer leaf spring, fatigue and fracture. Recommendation: The vehicle should slow down when cornering, with low speed and medium speed being the best speed. This is safe and can reduce vehicle failure. Editor's Note: The leaf spring gives the occupants the most intuitive feeling that comfort is not bumpy. If the leaf spring is broken, comfort will not be there. And the leaf spring also shoulders the task of transmitting force and moment, and at the same time determines the trajectory of the wheel. If it is broken, it can be said to be a result of the whole body. So please be kind to your car and be kind to the leaf spring!
