Abstract
This invention relates to an arrangement of a torsion bar stabilizer at a drivable motor vehicle axle with independent wheel suspensions, the wheels of which being guided by means of a plurality of individual links. By means of this arrangement, a housing of the torsion bar stabilizer between the axle and the vehicle body is made to require little space in upward direction. The assignment of the stabilizer legs to the wheel carriers also do not force a limitation of the rim of tire width of the vehicle wheels. According to the invention, this is achieved by the fact that the legs of a U-shaped torsion bar stabilizer are in each case arranged between a camber strut and the axle shaft of the wheel suspensions. Thus the stabilizer legs are located inside the wheel suspensions or behind their wheel carriers and no longer project over the same in an upward direction. In this case, the stabilizer legs can be moved close to the wheel carriers and as a result, the transmission of the torsion bar stabilizer can be optimally designed.
