Lamoine type stub axle:
The
Front axle beam end forms eye to take support on the Stub axle
The
Stub axle and King pin are integrated to form reverse L- shape assembly to
receive
the front axle.
The
thrust washer is placed between stub axle and front axle beam.
The
cotter pin in the joint is used to lock the front axle in position.
The
king pin is free to move (swing or oscillate) in the Phosphor bronze bushes
placed in
the eye of the front axle.
The
thrust washer takes the vertical load in the joint.
The
use of thrust washer increases the life of both the stub axle and front axle.
