Coupled torsion beam axle bushing

Abstract

A coupled torsion beam axle (CTBA) bushing is press-fitted into a bushing bracket provided at a tip of a trailing arm at each of two opposite sides of a CTBA suspension system. In particular, the CTBA bushing includes: an outer pipe including a through-hole formed therein; an inner pipe positioned in the through-hole; and a bushing rubber disposed in the through-hole and positioned between an outer peripheral surface of the inner pipe and an inner peripheral surface of the outer pipe, in which the bushing rubber includes: first compounds extending in a first direction, which is a diameter direction of the inner pipe, with the inner pipe interposed therebetween; and a second compounds integrated with the first compounds and extending in a second direction, which is perpendicular to the first direction, with the inner pipe interposed therebetween.
