目前在實(shí)踐中設(shè)定的范圍和可接受表現(xiàn)之間幾乎沒有任何關(guān)系Ｃ.對(duì)不同類型的車輛的懸架系統(tǒng)和實(shí)際存在的各種各樣的中斷，它們的界限會(huì)有所差別。這就需要全面參考手冊(cè)并不斷更新。盡管該系統(tǒng)有這些根本的弊端，但是他們的根特大學(xué)實(shí)驗(yàn)室工程師，以及幾位 Eusama 成員已經(jīng)開始使用測(cè)試儀器。正如所料，第一個(gè)結(jié)論是，沒有檢驗(yàn)方法是可以不包括拆除汽車減震器就能夠提供有關(guān)資料和減震器單的，但實(shí)際上整個(gè)汽車停止系統(tǒng)是通過了測(cè)試.。這可以說是一個(gè)積極的方面測(cè)試，全部停止安全狀況應(yīng)當(dāng)是良好的； 盡管減震器最有可能進(jìn)一步部分使用惡化，其他缺點(diǎn)如夸大輪胎，或處理破城球，如果可能的話，應(yīng)給予診斷。其他影響測(cè)試結(jié)果的因素中，氣溫減震器影響所有機(jī)器給出的結(jié)果。對(duì)于下降型試驗(yàn)機(jī)減震器缺陷造成的高頻激勵(lì)是不能察覺的。 頻率掃描型機(jī)器的出現(xiàn)，持續(xù)的投入意味著在用軟或硬中斷的車輛之間差別很大。因此從太空正常到重型任務(wù)的改變(操作可能無(wú)法識(shí)別)可以認(rèn)為直接影響結(jié)果。每一種機(jī)器的制造都有它自己的特征，但由于基本原則，被認(rèn)為是不可接受的測(cè)試不會(huì)在這里出現(xiàn)。充分考慮技術(shù)小組委員會(huì)建議 Eusama 的加入，雖然現(xiàn)有機(jī)器正確操作，可以診斷許多錯(cuò)誤減震器、負(fù)責(zé)協(xié)會(huì)不能批準(zhǔn)這種設(shè)備作為技術(shù)上代表某一方面性能的衡量參數(shù)。以剎車測(cè)試為例，指出：測(cè)試儀器直接顯示制動(dòng)效率的百分比，無(wú)需辨別車型或使用參考手冊(cè).。同樣，制動(dòng)性能的最低水平也一定能為所有模式汽車使用，讓顧客立即知道剎車注意事項(xiàng)，有些機(jī)器顯示制動(dòng)失衡，但并不表明它的某組成部分失常。運(yùn)用車輛停止同樣的原則，應(yīng)當(dāng)可以提供測(cè)試，給出直接顯示或最好的百分比，說明從安全角度暫停是不是可取。進(jìn)一步說，必須客觀的執(zhí)行，也就是說，測(cè)試者不需要任何辨別、說明、和參考手冊(cè)。外文資料譯文3因此技術(shù)小組尋找了一個(gè)合適的參數(shù)，可以視為車輛安全暫停標(biāo)準(zhǔn)。 如前所述，只有一個(gè)正常的組成部分那就是使用減震器。首先必須確定減震器的作用。它們可以實(shí)現(xiàn)兩種功能：降低車身移動(dòng)和控制車輪亂跳。允許車身移動(dòng)是一個(gè)很值得嘗試的問題，主要是控制這些移動(dòng)，在優(yōu)化舒適方面，減震器的阻尼特性是不同的。車身的移動(dòng)當(dāng)然影響到交通堵塞，但實(shí)際上很少有普通司機(jī)能達(dá)到范圍內(nèi)，所以對(duì)安全措施而言，車身的阻尼特性變得不那么重要。在任何情況下，汽車阻尼性能差的司機(jī)可以很快控制速度，保證車輛的反應(yīng)能力。從另一方面來說，車輪彈跳是衡量危險(xiǎn)的一個(gè)現(xiàn)象，車輪固定不牢固的危險(xiǎn)是眾所周知的。兩站和制動(dòng)性能也是一樣。兩站的輪胎和制動(dòng)性能要收到道路情況的限制； 這是依靠縱向的聯(lián)系,以及車輪輪胎資自身的性能。道路交通堵塞的一個(gè)客觀衡量標(biāo)準(zhǔn)，即車輛暫停安全性被獨(dú)立出，但是仍需能夠體現(xiàn)它可以隨時(shí)解釋。有人提議，輪胎和公路間的縱向聯(lián)系，車輪跳動(dòng)次數(shù)，表示這是一個(gè)靜態(tài)的車輪負(fù)荷百分比.。這種可能性曾在會(huì)晤技術(shù)小組委員會(huì)和根特大學(xué)的 Verschoore博士討論過，并達(dá)成了一些一致意見，但是一些成員仍表示懷疑這個(gè)測(cè)量參數(shù)實(shí)用性，以及懷疑相關(guān)結(jié)果。在以后的小組中獲悉，德國(guó)機(jī)械原型大概用上述原則提出了對(duì)根特大學(xué)的評(píng)價(jià)。 某些建議進(jìn)行了修改后，根特大學(xué)和 Eusama 公司成員證明了這種測(cè)試的可能性，充分證明了技術(shù)小組委員會(huì)要衡量參數(shù)的的決定。下面是有關(guān)原型機(jī)器測(cè)試的過程和測(cè)試結(jié)果，由西德的 Maschingfabrik Koppern 和 Co, Hattingen 發(fā)展，比利時(shí)布魯塞爾的門羅提出。車輪轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)是由暫停引發(fā)的，掃描頻率范圍為 0－25 赫茲，在輪胎下方使用，伴隨有固定 6 毫米的中風(fēng)轉(zhuǎn)動(dòng)。一次測(cè)試一個(gè)輪胎。計(jì)算公式：．10%?最 小 輪 胎 載 重靜 止 時(shí) 在 重測(cè)試者所分析的結(jié)果會(huì)通過最小輪胎受力預(yù)示展現(xiàn)出來明顯特征。注重測(cè)試時(shí)的儀器讀數(shù)和以往的實(shí)驗(yàn)經(jīng)驗(yàn)相匹配，因?yàn)檫€沒有一種科學(xué)的測(cè)試方法能夠很精確的用在道路行駛測(cè)試系統(tǒng)上．最終決定車輛的行駛平順性和乘座舒適性取決于車輛制造商所做的或多或少的行駛試驗(yàn)．測(cè)試方法是否能行將在于懸架系統(tǒng)是否正常工作，因此，推薦仔細(xì)的檢查懸外文資料譯文4架系統(tǒng)的每一個(gè)單元以次來改進(jìn)懸架測(cè)試的精確性，初始的錯(cuò)誤可以經(jīng)常被找到在測(cè)試惡化之前．第二，這懸架系統(tǒng)的測(cè)試，車輪與車輪之間，只有當(dāng)有毛病時(shí)才表現(xiàn)出來；它并不規(guī)定這些錯(cuò)誤，通過一個(gè)熟練的操作者可能從測(cè)試讀本上診斷出一些毛病．很明顯在設(shè)計(jì)一個(gè)機(jī)器時(shí)我們應(yīng)考慮到存在一定機(jī)率過度靜摩擦，仍然需要在這一領(lǐng)域的改進(jìn)工作．當(dāng)加強(qiáng)和改進(jìn)彈簧和減振器時(shí)，汽車懸架的基本設(shè)計(jì)并沒有同步進(jìn)行，也沒有什么重大革命性的發(fā)展。但是這一切都隨著 BOSE 公司的懸架品牌的引入而發(fā)生改變--就是那個(gè)在聲學(xué)因發(fā)明創(chuàng)造引以為名的公司。一些專家已經(jīng)在說—BOSE的懸架是自汽車技術(shù)引入全獨(dú)立懸架以來在汽車懸架的最重大的進(jìn)步。它是怎么工作的呢？BOSE 的系統(tǒng)是在每一個(gè)車輪上裝一個(gè)線控電磁馬達(dá)（LEM ）以控制一組減振器和彈性元件的狀態(tài)。功率放大器提供電力對(duì)馬達(dá)在這種情況下他們的力量再生以系統(tǒng)的各壓縮。 馬達(dá)的主要好處是, 他們因具有慣性，不限制于固有的在常規(guī)基于流體的阻尼特性。所以，一個(gè) LEM 可以在任何的速度伸張和壓縮，自然它可衰減乘員艙體的所有振動(dòng)。輪子的運(yùn)動(dòng)可以被很好的控制，因而，在輪子的任何運(yùn)動(dòng)狀態(tài)車體都可以保持可以接受的狀態(tài)。LEM 同樣可以在汽車加、減速，轉(zhuǎn)彎時(shí)產(chǎn)生的傾角較小，讓駕駛員以更好的狀態(tài)駕駛汽車。外文資料譯文5Suspension performance testingThe suspension system, while not absolutely essential to the operation of a motor vehicle, makes a big difference in the amount of pleasure experienced while driving. Essentially, it acts as a “bridge“ between the occupants of the vehicle and the road they ride on. The term suspension refers to the ability of this bridge to “suspend“ a vehicle's frame, body and powertrain above the wheels. Like the Golden Gate Bridge hovering over San Francisco Bay, it separates the two and keeps them apart. To remove this suspension would be like taking a cool dive from the Golden Gate: you might survive the fall, but the impact would leave you sore for weeks. Think of a skateboard. It has direct contact with the road. You feel every brick, crack, crevice and bump. It's almost a visceral experience. As the wheels growl across the pavement, picking up a bump here, a crack there, the vibration travels up your legs and settles in your gut. You could almost admit you were having fun, if you didn't feel like you were gonna toss your tacos at any second. This is what your car would feel like without a suspension system.In the interests of road safety, it is logical to include in periodic roadworthiness tests an inspection of vehicle suspension performance. The results of tests with a prototype machine are presented and a specification proposed for a valid suspension test.Demonstrations organized by the European Shock Absorbers Manufacturers’ Association ( EuSAMA) in many countries have drawn attention to the importance of correctly functioning shock absorbers. In the United Kingdom it is anticipate that the Department of the Environment will include a specific shock absorber check in the MOT Test with effect from January 1977.Of the machines currently available for testing shock absorbers without removing them from the vehicle, there is no real consensus of opinion concerning their validity to evaluate suspension safety objectively. But it is felt that possible more stringent legislation on European periodic vehicle tests in the future will demand a form of objective testing on equipment that is incapable of erroneous interpretation.外文資料譯文6Since its formation in 1971 EuSAMA has realized the imnportance of the problem, and initially charged its technical sub-committee with the task of examining and analyzing the various test machines then available. Two basic types of machine were offered at that time for diagnosing faulty shock absorbers. These were:Machines which lift up the wheels on an axle by about 100 mm and then let them drop. The subsequent displacements of the body on each side are recorded and the results compared with preset values for the particular vehicle and the suspension position, front or rear. Such a machine simulates a step input and records the subsequent body movements (see Fig 1).Machines which measure wheel movements induced by the exitation of the suspension through a frequency scan from above resonance frequency to zero, applied by means of a spring-supported platform under the tyre. Results are recorded in the form of wheel displacement against time. While passing through the wheel bounce resonant frequency the maximum amplitude is obtained and this is compared with preset values for the particular vehicle and the suspension position front or rear (see Fig 2).A third machine, introduced later, measures phase shift induced by the excitation of the suspension at a constant frequency and stroke, applied by means of a vibrating platform under the tyre. The phase shift between the moment of excitation and the force-reaction is recorded and the result is compared with preset values for the particular vehicle and suspension position (see Fig 3).These systems have three fundamental drawbacks:A: The actual damping is compared with the original damping the limit being a certain degradation in comparison with the original performance. The original performance, however, can already be marginal.B: The problems of limit setting, namely by whom should the limits be set and what are the criteria they should about? At present there is hardly any relation between set limits and acceptable performance in practice.C: The practical problem of various limits for different vehicle types and their suspensions. This requires comprehensive reference manuals that need continuously updating.外文資料譯文7Despite these fundamental drawbacks, examples of the ? widely used test machines were put through their paces by the Automotive Engineers Laboratory of the University of Ghent, as well as by several EuSAMA members. As expected, the first conclusion is that no test method which does not include dismantling the shock absorbers from the vehicle is able to furnish information concerning the shock absorber alone, and it is in fact the whole of the vehicle suspension system that is tested. This can be considered as a positive aspect of testing, since the whole of the suspension should be in good condition for safety; although the shock absorber is the component most likely to deteriorate with use, other defects such as incorrectly inflated tyres, broken springs or seized ball-joins should if possible be diagnosed.Of the other factors which influenced test results it was found that all machines gave results that were much affected by shock absorber temperature. In the case of the drop type testing machines, defects in shock absorbers caused by high frequency excitation could not be detected. With the frequency scan type of machine, approximately constant force input implies a big difference in results between vehicles with soft or hard suspension, so that changes in springs from normal to heavy duty (which the operator may be incapable of identifying ) can considerable affect the result.Each make of machine had its own characteristics, but as the basic test principles were considered to be unacceptable these details will not be presented here.After due consideration the technical sub-committee advised the General Assembly of EuSAMA that although the existing machines, when correctly operated, could help to diagnose many faulty shock absorbers, a responsible association could not authorize such equipment as the parameters measured were not considered technically representative of any particular aspect of roadworthiness.Taking brake testing as an example, it was noted that test machines give a direct reading of braking efficiency as a percentage of g without the need to identify vehicle type or to use reference manuals. Similarly, minimum braking performance levels can be set for all automobiles irrespective of model, so that a customer knows immediately if his brakes need attention, Some machines show brake imbalance, but do not indicate which component is faulty.Applying the same principles to vehicle suspension, it should be possible to 外文資料譯文8propose a test which furnishes a direct reading as a value or preferably as a percentage, to indicate whether a suspension is considered satisfactory from the viewpoint of safety. Moreover, this must be achieved objectively, that is to say without need of any identification, interpretation or reference to manuals by the test operator.The technical sub-committee therefore looked for a parameter which could be considered a suitable criterion of safety in relation to vehicle suspension. As stated earlier, there is only one component normally subject to deterioration with use—the shock absorber. So the role of the shock absorbers must first be defined. These have two functions to perform: to damp the movement of the vehicle body on its springs and to control wheel bounce.The permitted movement of a vehicle body on its springs is very much a matter of taste, and it is largely in the control of such movement that a sports shock absorber differs in damping characteristics from a shock absorber aimed at optimum comfort. The movement of a body on its springs does, of course, materially influence roadholding but in reality few ordinary drivers are capable of reaching the limits of the modern car in this respect, so the value of body damping is relatively unimportant for safety measurements. In any case, most drivers of a vehicle with poor body damping will quickly limit their speed and manoeuvres to the vehicle’s handling capacity.Wheel bounce, on the other hand, is a measurable phenomenon and the dangers of vehicles with uncertain wheel contact are well known. Both cornering and braking performance are well known. Both cornering and braking performance are limited by tyre anherence to the road; this is dependent on the vertical wheel contact as well as the tyre’s own properties.A parameter which permits the objective measurement of one aspect of roadholding, and therefore of vehicle suspension safety, was thus isolated but it was still necessary to be able to express it in terms that could be readily interpreted.It was proposed, therefore, to measure the minimum remaining vertical contact force between tyre and road under a given excitation at wheel-bounce frequency and to express it as a percentage of the static wheel load. Such a possibility was discussed at a meeting between the technical sub-committee and Dr Verschoore of the University of Ghent. A general concensus of opinion in favour of such a test was reached, though some 外文資料譯文9members expressed doubts concerning the possibility of measuring this parameter in practice, as well as doubts concerning the results Aparamet。.At a later date the sub-committee was informed that a prototype machine of German origin, using approximately the principle outlined above, had been submitted for evaluation to the University of Ghent. After certain recommended modifications had been performed, tests by both the University of Ghent and a member company of EuSAMA demonstrated the possibilities of such a test, and amply justified the technical sub-committee’s decision concerning the parameter to be measured.Details are given below of the tests performed and the results obtained on a prototype machine, developed by Maschingfabrik Koppern it will not locate the fault, though a skilled operator may be able to diagnose certain defects from the test read-out.Obviously there is a requirement to design a machine able to detect when a certain percentage of static friction is exceeded. Development work in this area is still required.外文資料譯文10While there have been enhancements and improvements to both springs and shock absorbers, the basic design of car suspensions has not undergone a significant evolution over the years. But all of that's about to change with the introduction of a brand-new suspension design conceived by Bose -- the same Bose known for its innovations in acoustic technologies. Some experts are going so far as to say that the Bose suspension is the biggest advance in automobile suspensions since the introduction of an all-independent design. How does it work? The Bose system uses a linear electromagnetic motor (LEM) at each wheel in lieu of a conventional shock-and-spring setup. Amplifiers provide electricity to the motors in such a way that their power is regenerated with each compression of the system. The main benefit of the motors is that they are not limited by the inertia inherent in conventional fluid-based dampers. As a result, an LEM can extend and compress at a much greater speed, virtually eliminating all vibrations in the passenger cabin. The wheel's motion can be so finely controlled that the body of the car remains level regardless of what's happening at the wheel. The LEM can also counteract the body motion of the car while accelerating, braking and cornering, giving the driver a greater sense of control. Unfortunately, this paradigm-shifting suspension won't be available until 2009, when it will be offered on one or more high-end luxury cars. Until then, drivers will have to rely on the tried-and-true suspension methods that have smoothed out bumpy rides for centuries.
