A long straight bar fastened to the frame at one end and to a suspension part at the other. In effect, a torsion bar is merely an uncoiled spring, and spring action is produced by twisting the bar. The main advantage of the torsion bar over the coil spring in the front suspension is the ease of adjusting the front suspension height.
A long straight bar fastened to the frame at one end and to a suspension part at the other. Twincam An engine with double overhead camshafts. Total Out-Of-Pocket Cost This is the total of all monthly payments, any lease fees and deposits, and any capital cost reduction (except tax, license, and registration) from lease inception to closure.
A long straight bar or rod that fulfills a mechanical or structural function by reacting to loads in torsion. The main advantage of the torsion bar over the coil spring in the front suspension is the ease of adjusting the front suspension height.
It is a kind of simple or rugged spring used in the suspension system which twists when compressed or stretched.
Type of spring, rod or bar twisted by suspension movement, esp' independent front suspension.
a solid bar of steel which is connected to the car chassis at one end, and free to move at the other end
a straight length of spring wire which is subject only to twisting
a type of spring, just like a coil spring or leaf spring
A spring that allows suspension motion by twisting.
A metal bar, which twists about its own axis, and is used in some suspension systems.
A rod in the suspension system that, when twisted from a grip at one end, functions like a spring.
A type of spring that twists as it is compressed or stretched. Torsion bar springs are simple and rugged
Uses the flexibility of a steel bar or tube, twisting lengthwise to provide spring action. Instead of the flexing action of a leaf spring, or the compressing-and-extending action of a coil spring, the torsion bar twists to exert resistance against up-and-down movement. More on F1 suspensions
