SUMMARY OF THE IN VEN TION It is acco rdingly an o b j ect o f the inv entio n to p ro v ide a Wheel su sp ensio n f o r the rear Wheels o f a mo to r v ehicle that o v erco mes the ab o v e- mentio ned disadv antages o f the p rio r art dev ices o f this general typ e, b y Which it is p o ssib le to o b tain a co mp act, sp ace- sav ing design o f the Wheel su sp en sio n u nit in the v ehicle. Fu rthermo re, it is intended to o b tain an o p timu m p o sitio ning o f the links With articu latio n p o ints at the Wheel carrier side and b o dy side in o rder to av o id any adv erse ef f ect o n the driv ing b ehav io r in the ev ent o f f o rces, su ch as f o r examp le b raking f o rces, side f o rces and driv e f o rces, acting o n the Wheel. With the f o rego ing and o ther o b j ects in v ieW there is p ro v ided, in acco rdance With the inv entio n, a Wheel su sp ensio n f o r rear Wheels o f a mo to r v ehicle. The Wheel su sp ensio n co ntains f o u r links inclu ding a triangu lar link and three sep a rate links. One o f the three sep arate links is a track ro d and the remaining tWo links are tWo o ther links. A Wheel carrier is gu ided b y the f o u r links Which are held o n a Wheel carrier side and o n a b o dy side. A damp er stru t and a sp ring b eing either an air sp ring o r a sp iral sp ring are p ro v ided. The triangu lar link is disp o sed in a lo Wer link p lane and the three sep arate links are disp o sed in an u p p er link p lane, and With it b eing p o ssib le, as a resu lt o f p o le f o rmatio ns de? ned b y the links, f o r a Wheel to b e elasto kinematically adj u sted in a to e- in sense and a to e- o u t sense u nder actio n o f f o rces. The trian gu lar link has a b o dy side f ro nt mo u nt b eing articu latedly co nnected to the Wheel carrier, in relatio n to a directio n o f 20 25 30 35 4 0 4 5 5 0 5 5 60 65 2 trav el, b ehind a v ertical Wheel central transv erse p lane and b elo W a ho riz o ntal Wheel central p lane. The triangu lar link ho lds the damp er stru t and the sp ring Which is sp aced ap art f ro m the damp er stru t, in a su p p o rting f ashio n. And, as v ieWed in the directio n o f trav el, the track ro d is disp o sed in f ro nt o f the v ertical Wheel central transv erse p lane in the u p p er link p lane, and in that in each case o ne o f the sep arate links is disp o sed at b o th sides o f the v ertical Wheel central transv erse p lane. The sep arate links are aligned at dif f erent angles so as to div erge f ro m the Wheel carrier in a directio n o f a v ehicle b o dy and de? ne the u p p er link p lane. The o b j ect is achiev ed acco rding to the inv entio n in that the triangu lar link is articu latedly co nnected to the Wheel car rieriin relatio n to the directio n o f trav elib ehind a v ertical Wheel central transv erse p lane and b elo W a ho riZ o ntal Wheel central p lane in a mo u nt, and ho lds a damp er stru t, and an air o r steel sp iral sp ring Which is sp aced ap art f ro m the damp er stru t, in a su p p o rting f ashio n. As v ieWed in the directio n o f trav el, an indiv idu al link Which is emb o died as a track ro d is arranged in f ro nt o f the Wheel central transv erse p lane in the u p p er link p lane, and in each case o ne indiv idu al link is arranged at b o th sides o f the v ertical Wheel central transv erse p lane, Which indiv idu al links are aligned at dif f erent angles so as to div erge f ro m the Wheel carrier in the directio n o f the v ehicle b o dy and likeWise f o rm the u p p er link p lane. In this Way, a Wheel su sp ensio n is adv antageo u sly created Which, While hav ing a sp ace- sav ing arrangement, p ro v ides targeted Wheel gu idance u nder the in? u ence o f f o rces acting o n the Wheel. A co ntrib u tio n to o p timu m Wheel gu idance is p ro v ided b y the arrangement o f the Wheel gu ide links in the lo Wer and in the u p p er link p lanes, Which arrangement generates targeted p o le f o rmatio n and theref o re f o rms co rresp o nding imaginary and elasto kinematic axes Which b ring ab o u t a su b stantial in? u ence o n the Wheel p o sitio ning in the directio n o f to e- in and/ o r to e- o u t. In o rder to achiev e this, the track ro d has an articu latio n p o int o n the Wheel carrier, Which articu latio n p o int is situ ated ab o v e a ho riZ o ntal Wheel central transv erse p lane, With the articu latio n p o ints o f the tWo indiv idu al links to the Wheel carrier b eing situ ated ab o v e the articu latio n p o int o f the track ro d o n the Wheel carrier. The b o dy- side mo u nt p o ints o f the tWo indiv idu al links f o rm a b o dy- side p iv o t axis Which ru ns in the v ehicle lo ngitu dinal directio n and Which, as v ieWed in the directio n o f trav el, is aligned at an acu te angle With resp ect to the v ertical Wheel central lo ngitu dinal p lane and With resp ect to the Wheel- carrier- side p iv o t axis thro u gh the mo u nts o f the indiv idu al links. In p articu lar, the track ro d and the indiv idu al link Whichias v ieWed in the directio n o f trav eliis arranged in f ro nt o f the v ertical Wheel central transv erse p lane are arranged at dif f erent heights and so as to b e ap p ro ximately p arallel to o ne ano ther and hav e an ap p ro ximately eq u al length and the b o dy- side and Wheel- carrier- side articu latio n p o ints lie v irtu ally in p arallel v ertical p lanes. The tWo indiv idu al links hav e a ? rst, u p p er p o le f o r an elasto kinematic p iv o t axis, Which p o leias v ieWed in the directio n o f trav eliis situ ated in f ro nt o f a v ertical Wheel central transv erse p lane and o u tside the tread Width o f the Wheel. The triangu lar link and the track ro d f o rm a seco nd, lo Wer p o le f o r the elasto kinematic p iv o t axis in the Wheel co ntact p lane, Which p o le is situ ated o u tside the tread Width. Fo r a targeted change in p o sitio n o f the Wheel u nder the in? u ence o f f o rces, the b o dy- side mo u nt o f the track ro d and the b o dy- sideias v ieWed in the directio n o f trav elif ro nt mo u nt o f the triangu lar link hav e a so f ter characteristic than the b o dy- side mo u nts o f the indiv idu al links and o f the f u rther mo u nt o f the triangu lar link.
