Additional field(s): Mechanics / Mech Engineering | | English term or phrase: camber (angle) | 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 sentence(s): - 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
