Abstract

488,172. Vehicle spring-suspensions. RILEY, P. Jan. 27, 1938, No. 2588. [Class 108 (ii)] In a spring-suspension for a motor vehicle of the kind such as is described in Specification 420,433, in which each wheel 11 is carried by a substantially horizontal crank 14 having a screw-threaded or equivalent connection with a non-rotatable member 23 that is slidable axially against resilient means 27, the crank 14 is also connected with a torsion spring 28 surrounding the spring 27, so that both springs 27, 28 act together to resist movement of the road wheel. In the construction shown in Fig. 1, the cranks 14 with their shafts 17 are supported at the opposite ends of a transverse casing 20, and the inner ends of the shafts 17 are engaged with a rotatable element 25, which serves both as an abutment for the inner spring 27 and also as the means for stressing the torsion spring 28, the other end of which is held by a stationary sleeve 19. Preferably an additional torsion spring 30 is coupled to the two abutments 25 so as to function as an anti-roll device. In a modification, Fig. 4, the horizontal cranks 35 are associated with a pair of swinging semiaxles 31 and are journalled in casings 36 for rotation about longitudinal axes. Rotation of the shafts of the cranks 35 is resisted by the spring combination as in the construction of Fig. 1, while the ends of the shafts remote from the cranks are provided with cross-arms 38, the diametrically opposed ends of which are cross-connected by resilient telescopic links 39 forming a stabilizing device.
