Adjustment of corners of installation of wheels

For the best understanding of separate main concepts at adjustment of wheels these illustrations are given.

For achievement of reliable controllability of the car forward wheels should stand under certain corners in the vertical and horizontal plane. In order that you could represent accurately to yourselves concept «a ratio of angles of rotation of operated wheels», we give an explanation of some concepts:

Convergence: at Audi 80 forward wheels at rest in front stand slightly more closely to each other, than behind. In these cases speak: convergence "positive". The friction between a wheel and the road wrings out the left wheel on the left, and right to the right. It is compensated by the forces arising in a forward drive, aspiring to compress forward wheels in front. At entry of the car into turn the positive convergence passes to a negative convergence (divergence) of wheels. It occurs thanks to a trapezoid arrangement of steering drafts: the internal wheel in turn bends more strongly than the external. It is necessary, because on turn internal wheels describe narrower circle, than external.

Disorder: so call an easy inclination in forward wheels – at Audi 80 in a wheel niche above they are located more closely to each other, than below. In language of experts it is called as "negative disorder».

Cross-section inclination шкворня: he treats disorder. The cross-section inclination шкворня is an insignificant inclination of a rotary axis round which at management of a wheel and all rack turns. Both rotary axes are above located more closely to each other, than below. Disorder and a cross-section inclination шкворня in addition prevent trembling of wheels and facilitate their provorachivaniye.

Longitudinal inclination шкворня back: it is necessary to understand the inclined provision of a rotary axis as it in the longitudinal direction of the car. It also helps to stabilize rectilinear movement by inertia and to prevent vibration of wheels. Besides, thanks to a longitudinal inclination there is a steering return after turns.
