Suspension device

A semi-trailing suspension device comprising:

• a trailing arm that is coupled to a vehicle body in a turnable manner;
• a trailing bush that is provided between the vehicle body and the trailing arm and pivotally supports the trailing arm in a turnable manner;
• a lower arm that is coupled to the vehicle body in a turnable manner;
• a lower arm bush that is provided between the vehicle body and the lower arm and pivotally supports the lower arm in a turnable manner;
• and
• a hinge mechanism that couples the trailing arm and the lower arm to each other in a relatively displaceable manner, wherein
• the hinge mechanism is provided with an upper bush disposed on an upper side and a lower bush disposed on a lower side,
• the upper bush and the lower bush respectively include an inner cylindrical member, and outer cylindrical member that is disposed on the outer diameter side of the inner cylindrical member, a rubber elastic body provided between the inner cylindrical member and the outer cylindrical member, and a bolt that passes through the inner cylindrical member,
• the upper bush has a void section on a virtual line connecting an input load and a center point of the bolt in the rubber elastic body,
• the lower bush has a void section on a line other than a virtual line connecting an input load and a center point of the bolt,
• the upper bush and the lower bush are made of the same bush, and
• a stiffness along the virtual line connecting the input load and the center point of the bolt of the upper bush is lower than that along the virtual line connecting the input load and the center point of the bolt of the lower bush.
