Semi-rigid axle for a vehicle

A semi-rigid axle for a vehicle comprises:

• a torsion profile, which extends in a Y direction and is open downward in a Z direction;
• and
• two longitudinal control arms, which are connected to the semi-rigid axle and are each connected to the torsion profile by a gusset plate arrangement,
• wherein each gusset plate arrangement has a first gusset plate attached to one of the two longitudinal control arms and a second gusset plate arranged at least partially above the first gusset plate,
• wherein, for each gusset plate arrangement, first and second connecting sections of the first and second gusset plates are connected to one another and each of the first and second gusset plates is attached to an inside of the torsion profile on both sides in an X direction,
• wherein, for each gusset plate arrangement, at least one of the first gusset plate or the second gusset plate has an inner section on an inner portion of a corresponding one of the first and second connecting sections away from the corresponding one of the two longitudinal control arms in the Y direction,
• wherein, for each gusset plate arrangement, the inner section has two wing sections, which are separated in the X direction by a recess, and
• wherein each of the two wing sections is attached to the inside of the torsion profile.

• wherein, for each gusset plate arrangement, the second gusset plate has an upwardly extending outer section on an outer portion of the second connecting section in the Y direction, and
• wherein, for each gusset plate arrangement, the outer section is attached to the inside of the torsion profile on a top side.
