Angles of installation of wheels

Only one of parameters – convergence, and, they dispatch both, and the rear wheels of the car are subject to the agreement. The sizes of the disorder and a vybeg of advanced wheels have of happening in a regular base of the evaluation of the degree of the use of component ones of a support of the triangular form of interruption and the walk of direction.

The agreement of angles of the installation of wheels is between the proceedings that demand the special exactness of the measurement which implementation of high quality needs the existence of the special, quite big and expensive equipment. The realization of this work will be the most correct to be accused to the professional mechanics of the service of the car. Down, for the general understanding, the definitions of each one of below angles of control of the installation of wheels of the car which knowledge will make easy the communication of the owner of the car with the people of service of the car give themselves.

One calls the convergence the size of data to other of advanced edges of wheels of the car. Such a violation of the parallelism of the installation of wheels allows to minimize the use of a protector at the expense of a slip in the commission of turns. In the null convergence the distance between advanced wheels edges is the same as the distance between his rear edges. The normal convergence (–Y) – sees X that an illustration – normally does not exceed actions of inch (1 inch = 2,54 cm). The agreement of the convergence of advanced wheels is executed by the agreement of the length of directing sketches. For the agreement of the convergence of rear wheels it is necessary to correct the position of levers of compensation of a support of the triangular form of interruption in the arms in the bottom of the car. The violation of the agreement of the convergence leads to the acceleration of the protectors' use of tires due to them sliding in a road surface.

The disorder is called the angle of canvas of the airplane of wheels about vertical. If the wheels lean for the superior edges on the outside, the disorder is called positively and vice-versa. The size of the disorder is measured in degrees. The fairness of the agreement of the disorder determines the size and the provision of a place of the protectors' contact with the way and allows to compensate for modifications in the geometry of support of the triangular form of interruption during the commission of turns and in the moment of the movement of the car in an unequal road surface.

Vybegom is called a corner of detour of a vertical of an axle of the turn of a wheel in the airplane of the last one. If the axle of the turn leans behind, the выбег is called a positive, on the contrary.
