English term

camber (angle)

GBK English to Chinese Tech/Engineering Automotive / Cars & Trucks
Definition from Wikipedia:
Camber angle is the angle made by the wheel of an automobile; specifically, it is the angle between the vertical axis of the wheel and the vertical axis of the vehicle when viewed from the front or rear.
Example sentences:
The tilted steering axis has another important effect on suspension geometry. Since the wheel rotates about a tilted axis, the wheel gains camber as it is turned. (ozebiz.com.au)
This pendulum type tool has 3 zones marked out on the bottom foot. Each zone, or the area in each zone, represents the allowable, or designed, amount of camber angle of a wheel in different positions. (2cvtools.com)
However, the effect of the strong camber on the wheel and the softer tyre is to give negative results, as the outer part of the tyre becomes deformed, and turns with a smaller rotation radius then the inner part, with the consequent increased wear on the outer strip of tread, (wheels in motion)

(车轮)外倾角(中心线弯曲角

又称中心线弯曲角
繁体:中心線彎曲角
Definition from 汽车之家:
汽车外倾角和前束的概念<br /> 车轮面与地面不垂直。从车头望向车轮,车轮与铅垂线的夹角称为外倾角(Camber). 若轮胎上端向外倾斜即左右轮呈&quot;/&quot;形, 称为正外倾角(Positive Camber), 作用是减少转向时所需的力量, 使扭胎转弯较为轻松; 若轮胎上端向内倾斜,呈&quot;/&quot;形, 即为负倾角(Negative Camber),可帮助赛车或一些高性能汽车抵抗转弯时的离心力..
Example sentences:
、1转向轮外倾角从前方看前轴时,轮胎中心平面是不垂直于地面的,上面向外倾了一个角度,这种角度称为车轮外倾角,满载时车轮正好垂直于地面,这就防止了车轮内倾, ... (define.cnki.net)
