Steer Axle for Forklifts - Axles are defined by a central shaft which rotates a wheel or a gear. The axle on wheeled motor vehicles can be attached to the wheels and turned along with them. In this situation, bushings or bearings are provided at the mounting points where the axle is supported. Conversely, the axle may be fixed to its surroundings and the wheels could in turn rotate around the axle. In this instance, a bearing or bushing is located within the hole within the wheel to enable the wheel or gear to turn around the axle.
With trucks and cars, the word axle in some references is utilized casually. The term normally refers to the shaft itself, a transverse pair of wheels or its housing. The shaft itself turns together with the wheel. It is normally bolted in fixed relation to it and called an 'axle' or an 'axle shaft'. It is equally true that the housing around it that is usually referred to as a casting is likewise known as an 'axle' or at times an 'axle housing.' An even broader sense of the term refers to every transverse pair of wheels, whether they are connected to one another or they are not. Therefore, even transverse pairs of wheels in an independent suspension are often called 'an axle.'
The axles are an essential part in a wheeled motor vehicle. The axle works in order to transmit driving torque to the wheel in a live-axle suspension system. The position of the wheels is maintained by the axles relative to one another and to the vehicle body. In this system the axles should likewise be able to bear the weight of the vehicle plus whichever cargo. In a non-driving axle, like for instance the front beam axle in some two-wheel drive light trucks and vans and in heavy-duty trucks, there will be no shaft. The axle in this condition works only as a steering component and as suspension. Several front wheel drive cars consist of a solid rear beam axle.
The axle works only to transmit driving torque to the wheels in several kinds of suspension systems. The position and angle of the wheel hubs is part of the operating of the suspension system seen in the independent suspensions of new sports utility vehicles and on the front of several new cars and light trucks. These systems still have a differential but it does not have connected axle housing tubes. It could be attached to the vehicle frame or body or also could be integral in a transaxle. The axle shafts then transmit driving torque to the wheels. The shafts in an independent suspension system are similar to a full floating axle system as in they do not support the motor vehicle weight.
The motor vehicle axle has a more vague classification, meaning that the parallel wheels on opposing sides of the motor vehicle, regardless of their type of mechanical connection to one another.
