English term

camber (angle)

GBK English to Slovak 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)

odklon kolesa (uhol), uhol odklonu kolesa

Odklon kolesa je uhol, o ktorý sa rovina kolesa odchyľuje od zvislej roviny
Example sentences:
Úhel odklonu kola γ je sklon střední roviny kola vůči svislé ose vozidla. Naklání-li se kolo vrchem vně vozidla, je uvažován odklon jako kladný, jestliže se naklání dovnitř, odklon je brán jako záporný. (autolexicon.net)
