我國汽車工業通過快速發展，無論技術含量、制造水平、還是產量都有了較大的提高，但縱覽整個汽車工業的綜合實力，在轎車、大型客車、載重汽車上不能普遍裝備橡膠空氣彈簧。汽車橡膠空氣彈簧是利用橡膠的彈性和空氣壓力獲得綜合吸震、減震、隔震、防噪和緩沖的性能，從而起到承載負荷的彈性支撐作用。橡膠空氣彈簧作為汽車減震的核心部件，它的性能的好壞直接影響著汽車的舒適性和對公路的破損性。
1.國內現狀
目前，我國橡膠空氣彈簧主要側重于鐵路火車和造紙機的配套與應用，用于汽車上(特別是豪華大客和載重汽車)的橡膠空氣彈簧在國內的研究起步較晚。國外的汽車工業較我國相對發達，故其設備、零部件的配套生產技術較國內也。在歐美等發達，空氣彈簧在轎車上的普及率已高達95%以上。目前國產空氣彈簧由于受種種原因影響，至今還未能普遍推廣。
2.發展趨勢
橡膠空氣彈簧是當今汽車裝備發展、配套的必然趨勢，特別是在大型客車和載重汽車上尤為突出。傳統的載重汽車一般都采用鋼板彈簧或油氣彈簧作為減震元件，但隨著當前世界汽車工業朝著高速、高性能、舒適、維修方便的方向發展，鋼板和油氣彈簧已越來越不適應其發展。
橡膠空氣彈簧在我國汽車工業領域的拓展應用非常廣闊。我國汽車年產量為325萬輛左右，大中型客車和載重汽車的產量不到總產量的1/6，轎車、輕型客車和載重汽車占年產量的275萬輛左右，特別是在轎車空氣彈簧上的發展空間更大，如果再加上我國汽車年產量的逐年遞增，它的開發市場更為廣闊了。橡膠空氣彈簧的生產技術將朝減震性能強、使用壽命長、安全可靠的方向發展。

Our country auto industry through the rapid development of technology, manufacturing level, regardless of content, or yield have been greatly improved, but the scan of the entire automobile industry comprehensive strength, in cars, buses, trucks can not be universal equipment rubber air spring. Rubber air spring for vehicle is the use of rubber elasticity and air pressure to obtain comprehensive shock absorption, shock absorption, vibration isolation, noise control and buffer performance, so that the load elastic supporting effect. Rubber air spring for automobile shock absorber of the core components, its performance has a direct impact on the vehicle ride comfort and road damage of.
1 The domestic status quo
At present, China's rubber air spring focuses mainly on railway train and paper machine matching and application, for the car(especially large luxury passenger and truck)rubber air spring in domestic research started late. Foreign automobile industry is China's relatively developed, so the equipment, parts and components supporting the production technology is advanced than those of the domestic. In Euramerican wait for a developed country, the air spring on the car popularity rate has reached more than 95%. The present domestic air spring due to various reasons, not yet popularized.
2 Development trend
Rubber air spring is today's automotive equipment development, supporting the inevitable trend, especially in the large passenger car and truck is outstanding. The traditional truck are generally used leaf springs or oil and gas spring as a damping element, but with the current world auto industry towards high speed, high performance, comfort, convenient repair direction, steel and oil gas spring has become increasingly unsuited to the development.
Rubber air spring in automobile industry of China to expand application field is very broad. Our country automobile annual output of around 3250000 vehicles, large and medium-sized passenger car and truck production to the 1/6 of total output, car, light-duty passenger car and truck accounted for 2750000 of the annual output of about, especially in the car air spring on the development of more space, if coupled with the Chinese automobile production increased year by year, its market development is more wide. Rubber air spring production technology will be in shock resistance, long service life, safe and reliable direction.
