Design and Simulation Analysis of Nonlinear Coil Spring for Automobile Suspension

By fitting the characteristic curve of the air spring and using the formula of the coil spring stiffness, the relationship between the medium diameter and height of the coil spring was found. The load characteristics of the three-dimensional model were analyzed in ANSYS, and the result data was fitted to the characteristic curve equation of the designed spring. The dynamic equation of a quarter suspension model was established, the nonlinear coil spring characteristic curve equation was linearized by the perturbation method and then got into the dynamic equation. The simulation model was established in MATLAB/Simulink, and the results were compared with those of the quarter fixed stiffness suspension system. The simulation results show that the nonlinear coil spring designed by using the nonlinearity of the air spring can improve the sit comfort and ride comfort of vehicle, and the parameters of the variable stiffness are improved greatly.
