Where is the car shock absorber installed?

Aug 16, 2021

The car shock absorber is installed above the wheel, inside the coil spring. In the suspension system, the elastic element is shocked to produce vibration. In order to improve the driving comfort of the car, a shock absorber is installed in parallel with the elastic element in the suspension.

The front shock absorber is above the wheel, and the rear shock absorber is on the side of the wheel. Some are integrated with the spring, and some are separated. The black strip is generally like a steel pipe.

In a car suspension, the shock absorber is always used in conjunction with a spring. When we press down a corner of the body, the spring is actually compressed and the corresponding swing arm swings. When the body is released, the body will rebound under the force of the spring. At this time, the shock absorber will dampen the rebound of the spring, that is, stabilize after the rebound. If there is no shock absorber, the spring will be compressed again after rebounding and then rebound, showing that the body tends to be stable after rebounding many times. Therefore, the shock absorber is for the spring of the car suspension to play the role of damping and shock absorption when rebounding.
