Abstract

1,244,843. Vehicle suspension. A. W. LAMBERT. 25 Sept., 1968 [14 July, 1967], No. 32516/67. Heading B7D. [Also in Division F2] In a vehicle suspension, two or more leaf springs 7a, 7b are connected to an axle 1 in closely spaced side by side relationship and are mounted between hanger brackets comprising bearing members 23a, 29a having rubber buffers 22a, 28a, and upper bearing members 25a, 25b, and 30a, 30b at different spacings from the spring leaves, whereby at light loads, only one spring is operative and as the load increases, the other springs come successively into operation. As shown, the upper bearing members are in the form of rollers of different diameters but coaxially disposed in each hanger bracket. In a modification, the upper bearing members are in the form of curved elongated abutments (39a, 43a, Fig. 5). The springs may be mounted upon the axle 1 through the intermediary of a saddle 16 and locating plate 13 and in a modification, Fig. 8, the springs are connected to the axle at different heights with the aid of identical spacer members 45a and 45b and are associated with end abutments of the same or differing heights. In the arrangement of Fig. 1, the suspension is a tandem suspension and the bracket 6 is an equalizer bracket.
