SUSPENSION BUSH AND SUSPENSION DEVICE USING THE SAME

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a suspension bush capable of controlling toe change while suppressing increase in the number of parts and in the size of a suspension device. SOLUTION: In a cross section 200 of an elastic body 43 of the suspension bush 40 which passes through an axial line X of an inner cylinder 41, a first notch 60 is formed at the inside front in a vehicle width direction with the inner cylinder 41 interposed therebetween; a second notch 64 is formed at the inside rear in the vehicle width direction; a third notch 80 is formed at the outside front in the vehicle width direction; and a fourth notch 84 is formed at the outside back in the vehicle width direction. In the first notch 60, the inclination of a first line 62 with respect to the axial line X is larger than that of a second line 63. In the second notch 64, the inclination of a fourth axial line 67 with respect to the axial line X is larger than that of a third line 66. In the third notch 80, the inclination of a sixth line 83 with respect to the axial line X is larger than that of a fifth line 82. In the fourth notch 84, the inclination of a seventh line 86 with respect to the axial line X is larger than that of an eighth line 87. COPYRIGHT: (C)2011,JPO&INPIT
